Everyone gathered in the Great Light Mountain Palace.
Xia Zhenkong and his three disciples, Chu Mu, and Su Yuexi, were enjoying the delicious food and wine.
"Brother, we have to thank you for what you did this time." Xia Zhenkong raised his wine glass and laughed. Chu Mu's seventh Nirvana somehow triggered the Light Sword Stele and released the Divine Light Will, allowing Xia Zhenkong and his disciples to have a deeper understanding of the Path of Light.
"If it wasn't for the Light Sword Stele, I'm afraid my Nirvana would've failed," Chu Mu said.
…
All good things must come to an end.
After Chu Mu came to the Great Light Mountain and experienced an important transformation, he asked to leave.
"Brother, why don't you stay for a while longer?" Xia Zhenkong suggested.
"What will come will come," Chu Mu said. "Running away is not my choice."
They were talking about the Purple Thunder Palace.
Xia Zhenkong knew that the people of the Purple Thunder Palace were watching outside the Great Light Mountain. Although Xia Zhenkong was strong, he was not strong enough to fight the entire Purple Thunder Palace alone.
There were many twists and turns between experts. If the Violet Thunder Palace took the initiative to provoke Xia Zhenkong, Xia Zhenkong could retaliate however he wanted. But if Xia Zhenkong took the initiative to provoke the Violet Thunder Palace, the Violet Thunder Palace wouldn't be lenient.
Xia Zhenkong was also willing to speak for Chu Mu. However, the problem was that when Elder Xuan Zhen and Eldest Young Palace Master of Purple Thunder Palace came and said that the murderer of Purple Thunder Palace's Second Young Palace Master was in Great Radiant Mountain, Xia Zhenkong didn't admit it back then. If he immediately spoke for Chu Mu now, the situation could become even worse.
"Brother, where are you going after you leave?" Xia Zhenkong asked.
"I plan to go back to the sect first," Chu Mu said.
"Brother, I have a suggestion. Why don't I go with you to the True Sword Sect?" Xia Zhenkong said.
"Big Brother Xia, thank you for your kindness," Ye Futian said. Chu Mu said. He understood Xia Zhenkong's intention. Xia Zhenkong wanted to escort him there, but Chu Mu had his own thoughts. Firstly, he wanted to treat Xia Zhenkong as a good friend. He didn't want him to become enemies with a powerful force like the Purple Thunder Palace. After all, Xia Zhenkong wasn't alone. He still had three disciples and the foundation of the Great Radiance Mountain.
Secondly, his cultivation had risen from the Fifth to the Seventh Heavenly Layer. His strength had increased tremendously. Chu Mu also wanted to know how strong he was now. Would he be able to escape from a low-level Martial Saint?
Even if he couldn't fight against a Saint-level expert, even if he was surrounded, he still had a huge trump card.
Only with confidence could one be fearless.
Chu Mu's tone was firm. Xia Zhenkong didn't say anything else.
"Brother, I believe in you." Xia Zhenkong said, "I'll visit the True Sword Sect soon. After all, I'm a guest elder of the True Sword Sect."
"Okay." Chu Mu smiled.
He took out the Great Sword Flying Ship and entered it. He activated it and rose into the air. The tail of the flying ship spewed out a shocking airflow. With a roar, the flying ship turned into a stream of light and flew away. It seemed to be Chu Mu's path. He was unstoppable. All obstacles would be crushed by him.
Xia Zhenkong watched, and so did Su Yuexi. Yes, she didn't leave with Chu Mu. It was Su Yuexi who suggested it. She felt that her strength was too far away from Chu Mu's. If she went with Chu Mu, not only would she not be able to help him, but she would also drag him down and prevent him from fully unleashing his strength.
All along, Chu Mu was used to traveling alone. When Su Yuexi suggested it, he didn't deliberately ask her to go with him.
It was inevitable that she felt disappointed, but it quickly turned into motivation. Su Yuexi had asked Xia Zhenkong to let her comprehend the Light Sword Stele a few more times. It would be helpful for her to comprehend the Path of Darkness. Xia Zhenkong agreed without hesitation.
…
The Great Sword Flying Ship was extremely fast. It instantly cut through the sky and flew out of the Great Light Mountain.
"Attention, there's movement." The disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace who had been guarding here for a long time transmitted their voices to each other as they stared at a stream of light.
"Sense it immediately."
"There, there's really the fluctuation of the Purple Thunder Mark. It's him."
"Don't let him escape."
The disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace immediately mobilized.
There were more than twenty of them scattered around the Great Light Mountain to monitor it. They had all learned the corresponding skills to sense the fluctuation of the Purple Thunder Mark within a certain range. Now, they had already sensed it.
The twenty disciples were led by Fei Li. His cultivation was the highest, at the peak of the Eighth Heaven of Nirvana Realm. He had been stuck there for many years. His idea was to break through to the Ninth Heaven of Nirvana Realm, and then break through to the Eternal Realm.
This was because breaking through to the Eternal Realm with the cultivation of the Ninth Heaven was different from breaking through to the Eighth Heaven. It meant that the path ahead was broader.
However, he didn't have the confidence to break through to the Ninth Heaven. This was an opportunity. If he did it well, he would receive the support of the sect and successfully break through to the Ninth Heaven.
This was a rare opportunity. Fei Li would seize it.
"Attack!" Fei Li ordered as the twenty disciples rushed over and formed a defensive line.
The Purple Thunder Palace focused on the power of thunder. They mainly cultivated thunder techniques and thunder sword techniques.
Every disciple of the Purple Thunder Palace had a sword. However, they were more proficient in thunder techniques.
The twenty disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace executed their thunder techniques one after another. Instantly, thunderclouds appeared in the sky. An astonishing pressure poured down. The thunderclouds rotated and lightning flashed.
Instantly, more than twenty lightning bolts struck towards the approaching Giant Sword Flying Ship. Each lightning bolt was at least as thick as an arm and suffused with a shocking purple color.
"They're making their move." Chu Mu's eyes reflected the twenty lightning bolts that flew over. A cold smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
The purple lightning bolts were one of the unique techniques of the Purple Thunder Palace: Purple Thunder Thunderbolt Technique.
The prowess of the Purple Thunder Thunderbolt Technique was astonishing. The stronger one's cultivation was, the more terrifying the prowess would be. Moreover, the speed was extremely fast.
If it was in the past, even if Chu Mu saw it, the Giant Sword Flying Ship would be struck and unable to dodge. However, it was different now. He had comprehended one with the flying ship. The flying ship was like an extension of his arm.
With a thought, the flying ship made a sharp turn and dodged the twenty lightning bolts. At the same time, it charged up and fired a cannon at Fei Li and the others.
Once it hit, even Fei Li would be injured.
However, the disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace weren't idiots. They immediately made the most accurate dodge. At the same time, they drew their swords and slashed out a Thunderbolt Sword Light at the Giant Sword Flying Ship.
It was just a mid-sized flying ship. It was impossible for it to fight against twenty of them.
"Work together and execute the Giant Lightning Net!" Fei Li roared. He was very unhappy with Chu Mu's dodging and counterattacking.
The Giant Lightning Net was one of the unique thunder techniques of the Purple Thunder Palace. It was a joint attack.
The twenty of them immediately formed hand seals. Bolts of lightning crisscrossed and covered the surroundings, forming a huge lightning net that covered over ten thousand meters. It was deep purple and emitted an astonishing radiance.
This lightning net condensed very quickly and covered a very wide area. Moreover, it had an astonishing suction force that constantly pulled the Giant Sword Flying Ship. It was as if an invisible hand was grabbing it.
Chu Mu quickly estimated. With his speed and the range and suction force of the lightning net, the Giant Sword Flying Ship would still be unable to escape when the lightning net fell. Since that was the case, he would give up on the flying ship.
With a thought, Chu Mu quickly left the flying ship and kept it in his interspatial ring.
The lightning net fell and the Heaven Beheading Sword appeared in his hand. Chu Mu locked onto the direction of the disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace. His figure moved and with a loud bang, he shot out like a meteorite. His speed was astonishing. The air behind him surged crazily like a tide.
"Hmph, you are merely at the Seventh Heavenly Layer of Nirvana Realm. You are courting death." Fei Li sneered. He pointed with one finger and a bolt of purple lightning shot out.
It was merely a bolt of lightning. Chu Mu swung his sword and immediately shattered it.
Bolts of purple lightning shot towards Chu Mu, but they were all shattered by Chu Mu's sword. Chu Mu's speed was extremely fast. He rapidly closed in. The astonishing pressure caused the disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace to have a drastic change in expression.
"Since you want to engage in close combat, I will fulfill your wish." Fei Li was still sneering. He had practiced his sword art bitterly. Some of his thunder techniques were also used for close combat. He was very proficient in it. It could be said that close combat was his forte. However, he didn't know that he had chosen the method that would lead to his death.
The lightning arcs around Fei Li's body trembled as he turned into a bolt of lightning. His speed was extremely fast and ferocious. He stretched out his right hand and a shocking amount of lightning gathered in the center of his palm. With crackling sounds, he aimed at Chu Mu. He was ready to unleash a shocking attack at any time.
A cold smile hung on the corner of Fei Li's mouth. The other disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace were very confident in him. After all, Fei Li was an experienced cultivator at the peak of the Eighth Heavenly Layer. He was proficient in thunder techniques. On the other hand, his opponent was only at the early stage of the Seventh Heavenly Layer.
There was a gap of one Heavenly Layer between them. Moreover, it was the gap between the early stage and the peak stage. There was no comparison at all.
They were all looking forward to seeing Fei Li's trembling body after being struck by his lightning. Shortly after, their eyes widened in shock. A bloody light flashed in their eyes.
Fei Li and Chu Mu got closer and passed by each other. His lightning couldn't hit Chu Mu. Chu Mu slashed out with his sword. Fei Li couldn't dodge and was hit directly.
One sword, instant kill.
Even the Black Demon commander, who was more powerful than an ordinary Ninth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Layer, was not Chu Mu's opponent in the Black Demon Pool, let alone a mere peak Eighth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Layer.
After killing Fei Li with one sword, he didn't stop at all. His speed increased again under the ingenious use of force, and he attacked the other disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace.
"Kill him."
"Avenge Senior Brother Fei Li."
"No, take him back alive."
More than twenty disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace attacked together. They didn't think that they couldn't deal with Fei Li as a group of Nirvana Layer cultivators. However, that was the truth.
There was only one way to describe it. It was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. There was no way to resist.
The sword rose and fell. Blood splashed across the sky. Under the scorching sun, circles of scarlet brilliance flowed out. It was a ghastly sight.
Among the twenty disciples of the Purple Thunder Palace, the lowest was at the Fourth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Layer, and the highest was at the peak of the Eighth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Layer. Under their joint efforts, not only were they unable to stop Chu Mu, they couldn't even cause him the slightest bit of harm. As for themselves, they all died under Chu Mu's sword. Without any hesitation, he swaggered off.
