Each seclusion lasted for five years.
He had also completely absorbed and mastered the various comprehensions he had gained from the Heaven Youth List Battle and turned them into his own strength.
After five years of seclusion, the geniuses came out one after another. At this time, many of them were over a hundred years old.
However, they were still listed on the Heaven Youth List and were blessed by the providence. Unless someone challenged them and defeated them, they would not be able to obtain the providence of the other party.
However, it was not that easy to issue a challenge. The Heaven Youth Palace had rules. Firstly, the age of the challenger could not be over a hundred years old. Secondly, the Heaven Youth Palace would make arrangements as soon as possible. Then, there would be a battle to determine the winner. Thirdly, each challenger only had one chance to issue a challenge.
The geniuses who could be listed on the Heaven Youth List were not to be underestimated. After a few years of seclusion, they would absorb various comprehensions and settle down. Their cultivation would increase and they would become stronger in all aspects. They would become more powerful and difficult to shake.
Usually, if others wanted to be listed on the Heaven Youth List, they would have to wait for the next Heaven Youth List Battle. However, by then, it would be a different batch of people after a hundred years.
Unexpectedly, someone came to visit Chu Mu as soon as he came out of seclusion.
"God's Son of God Chu, I am Chen Yi, the messenger of the Heaven Youth Palace. I am here because someone has nominated a challenge and I am here to invite you," Chen Yi said directly after cupping his hands in front of his chest to Chu Mu.
"Challenge me?" Chu Mu was stunned. He had imagined what would happen after he came out of seclusion, but he did not expect that the first thing he would do after coming out of seclusion would be to receive a challenge.
"Is it Lian Hongyun or Yang Zhantian?" Chu Mu asked.
"Neither. It's a newcomer," Chen Yi said.
Chu Mu was curious. He thought for a while. He had just come out of seclusion and there was nothing important at the moment. After informing Chen Yi, he left with Chen Yi and headed to the Heaven Youth Palace.
Chu Mu had not been to the Heaven Youth Palace since it was built. He wanted to take the opportunity to take a look and see for himself.
Along the way, Chen Yi introduced the challenger to Chu Mu.
The challenger's name was Fang Guxie. He came from a small family and was a monstrous genius himself. He was ninety-eight years old this year. Five years ago, during the Heaven Youth List Battle, he did not appear because he had some fortuitous encounters and was receiving his inheritance.
Fang Guxie had appeared two years ago. As soon as he appeared, he went around challenging the monstrous geniuses. He defeated them one by one with the sword in his hand. Even some of the monstrous geniuses on the Tianqing List were defeated by his sword.
Among them, the one with the highest ranking was the genius ranked twenty-first, who was also defeated by Fang Guxie's sword. Because of this, Fang Guxie received the title of Evil Sword.
Evil Sword!
This meant that Fang Guxie's swordsmanship was very evil. Otherwise, he wouldn't have received such a title.
Fang Guxie and Evil Sword's names were getting more and more famous. Coincidentally, most of the geniuses on the Tianqing List were in seclusion and their reputations were not as great as before. Evil Sword's name, Fang Guxie, seemed to be catching up.
However, it was unknown whether it was due to absolute confidence in his own strength or arrogance. Not long ago, Evil Sword Fang Guxie had made an application to the Heaven Youth Palace, stating that he wanted to challenge Star Sky Sovereign Chu Mu, who was on the Tianqing List.
Fang Guxie's age and other aspects met the challenge criteria. He was also strong enough. Therefore, the Heaven Youth Palace did not reject him. Instead, they sent Envoy Chen Yi to look for Chu Mu.
After hearing Chen Yi's introduction, Chu Mu's interest in Fang Guxie, who was known as Evil Sword, increased.
Many years ago, he had a fortuitous encounter and had been receiving his inheritance. After coming out, his strength had increased by leaps and bounds. Many of the geniuses on the Tianqing List had been defeated by his sword. This showed that he was extremely strong.
Chu Mu also knew that there were still some geniuses like Fang Guxie. After all, the four major galaxies were not small. There were countless planets with life and various half-worlds and secret realms. Since ancient times, there were countless geniuses. Some of them had fallen, but left behind their corresponding inheritances. The younger generation would always have the opportunity to obtain their inheritances.
Fang Guxie's inheritance should be pretty good.
Under Chen Yi's lead, Chu Mu arrived at the Heaven Youth Palace.
The Heaven Youth Palace was located within the half-world. The so-called half-world could be understood as a unique world where half of it was attached to the starry sky and the other half extended into the depths of space. It had a powerful spatial barrier that was difficult to break through.
Chu Mu carefully sensed it. He found that with his current attainments in the Laws of Space, he was unable to pass through this spatial barrier. The expert who had created this half-world had attainments in the Laws of Space that surpassed Chu Mu's by who knew how many times.
Indeed, the expert who had created this half-world was the Chaotic Sky Emperor.
The Chaotic Sky Emperor's attainments in the Laws of Space were countless times higher than Chu Mu's. There was simply no comparison between the two.
Chen Yi was the Heaven Youth Palace's envoy, so he naturally had a way to bring Chu Mu in.
The Heaven Youth Palace's main hall was like a towering tree that grew between heaven and earth. A dense aura of life filled the entire half-world.
It was said that the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was in seclusion at the peak of the Heaven Youth Palace. He wouldn't appear normally and would only appear when there was a major event.
Chen Yi brought Chu Mu directly into a side hall. It was an extension of the huge tree.
There was a person sitting in the side hall with his eyes closed as if he was cultivating. When Chu Mu saw this person, his first impression was that his appearance was ordinary. If he was placed in a crowd, it would be difficult to distinguish him. He was very ordinary, and his aura was also very ordinary. There was nothing special about him.
As if sensing Chu Mu and Chen Yi's arrival, this person opened his eyes. In an instant, Chu Mu felt that this person's aura had changed greatly. Everything was because of his eyes.
He didn't know how to describe it, but there was a feeling of evil. An evil aura was emitted from his body.
There was no need for an introduction. Chu Mu knew that this person was the person who had challenged him, Evil Sword Fang Guxie.
"You are Chu Mu?" Fang Guxie asked with a smile on his face. It made him look even more evil. In an instant, his ordinary face became very unique. Even if there were millions of people, he would be recognized quickly.
Chu Mu nodded. "Since you want to challenge me, let's start."
"Very well." The evil aura on Fang Guxie's face became even more obvious.
Chu Mu could feel that Fang Guxie's cultivation was at the peak of the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm. Although it was related to luck, it also meant that Fang Guxie's talent was very strong. He could be considered a monstrous genius.
Unfortunately, time didn't wait for him. Otherwise, if he participated in the Heaven Youth Ranking five years ago, he might have been able to get into the top ten.
It was also because he had absolute confidence in his own strength that Fang Guxie challenged all the monstrous geniuses. He didn't even let some of the people on the Heaven Youth Ranking go. After confirming his own strength, he applied to the Heaven Youth Palace to challenge Chu Mu.
According to him, since he wanted to challenge, he should do his best. Otherwise, he might as well not do it. It was very extreme.
Of course, Fang Guxie was confident in his own inheritance and strength. He was confident that he could defeat Chu Mu and replace him. Because his inheritance was a powerful inheritance that belonged to the Era of Gods. It was the inheritance of a peak Great Emperor.
Chu Mu wasn't sure about Fang Guxie's confidence and thoughts, nor would he probe. He only knew that if he challenged him, he would defeat the other party. That was all.
This could be considered a big deal, but it wasn't a big deal either. It was just a challenge. Therefore, it didn't cause much of a commotion. Only the inner members of the Heaven Youth Palace knew about it.
One of the two Vice Palace Masters, the Hundred Flowers Emperor, appeared in the side palace to host this challenge.
The Hundred Flowers Emperor had a flowery fragrance on her body. She looked like a mature and charming beauty. Her close-fitting flower robe made her even more charming.
The Hundred Flowers Emperor's beautiful eyes landed on Chu Mu's face, filled with admiration. She admired such a monstrous junior.
Next, the Hundred Flowers Emperor looked at Fang Guxie. Fang Guxie was younger than Chu Mu, but his cultivation base was higher than Chu Mu's. Furthermore, he was extremely strong. The Hundred Flowers Emperor hoped that there would be more juniors like him. Only then would the Human Race be stronger.
Regardless of whether Chu Mu or Fang Guxie won this battle, the Hundred Flowers Emperor would be happy to see it.
"You guys can start now." The Hundred Flowers Emperor's voice was as melodious as spring water.
"I heard that you've mastered the Sword Domain. Since that's the case, why don't you show it to me?" Fang Guxie said evilly. As the sound of his voice faded, waves of energy spread out from his body. These waves of energy were somewhat sinister.
Heavenly Evil Force Field!
Fang Guxie was from the lineage of the Heavenly Evil Emperor. Naturally, his unique force field was the Heavenly Evil Force Field.
The Heavenly Evil Force Field spread out with traces of evil energy, instantly wrapping around Chu Mu. Chu Mu instantly felt all sorts of Heaven and Earth Law powers being suppressed. Moreover, on the mental level, his Divine Remembrance power was also suppressed by a lot, and even received some sort of interference.
Chu Mu didn't release his Sword Domain. Instead, he released his Void Breaking Force Field. Fang Guxie might be a good opponent. He could use this opportunity to test out his gains from his five years of seclusion.
The moment the Void Breaking Force Field appeared, traces of silver light extended outwards. Each of them was incomparably sharp, slicing apart the void and enveloping Fang Guxie.
Fang Guxie was stunned at first, but soon after, he was infuriated. This wasn't a Sword Domain, but a force field.
He was very confident, but Chu Mu didn't release his Sword Domain. This made him a little annoyed, as he felt that he was being looked down upon. For someone like him who had challenged and defeated many monstrous geniuses, this was a kind of humiliation.
He secretly made up his mind. Since this person was looking down on him, he would use his own strength and the sword in his hand to teach this person a lesson, and defeat him ruthlessly.
With a thought, Fang Guxie slashed out with his sword. It seemed like a simple slash, but it carried a sinister feeling. It was as if this sword was everywhere, and there was no way to dodge it.
The Heavenly Evil Lineage had their own unique attainments in sword skills. Their style leaned towards the sinister, and didn't stick to one pattern. It was very exquisite. Chu Mu's eyes lit up.
