Purple lightning spread out like snakes and dragons, covering a radius of a few thousand meters.
Everything within a radius of several thousand meters was destroyed and evaporated by the purple lightning. The space seemed to have been cleansed, and a layer was scraped up.
After the lightning dissipated, the Purple Thunder Palace Master's body floated calmly in the air. His throat moved, and traces of blood seeped out. He couldn't say a word. Then, a terrifying energy fluctuation surged out from his body.
"The Purple Thunder Palace Master was killed …" Countless people were shocked.
"Leave quickly, he's going to self-destruct."
With a shout, the experts retreated. Chu Mu was no exception. He was the closest to the Purple Thunder Palace Master, so he quickly retreated.
Ten thousand meters seemed very far, but it was actually very close. Under the self-destruction of a peak Seventh Sky Immemorial Saint, one would definitely be affected.
As for Bai Yi, Chu Mu couldn't care less.
His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was hundreds of thousands of meters away.
The Purple Thunder Palace Master's body expanded to the limit. With a loud boom, it was as if the sky was splitting apart. In an instant, the sky lost its color, leaving only the alternating black and white. All the sounds disappeared, or converged into one. It was as if a shapeless strip had been stretched out. It was incomparably sharp, piercing through everything. Even time and space couldn't stop it.
It was as if the entire world had been destroyed.
Under the black and white, the terrifying lightning energy was savage and violent, destroying everything. In the blink of an eye, it covered a thousand meters, then ten thousand meters.
Bai Yi was directly bombarded by that energy, drowning him.
Behind Chu Mu, he could clearly feel the violent energy surging towards him. The extreme danger caused his speed to increase by 10%, but the pressure behind him made his hair stand on end. His back was completely drenched in sweat.
"Run quickly!"
"Save me!" Terrified and shrill screams rang out.
Some people weren't fast enough and were caught up by the lightning. Their bodies were destroyed, and their souls were scattered.
The protective sword aura was silently destroyed by the lightning. The Astral Treasure Robe was also attacked and almost shattered in an instant.
The lightning finally weakened, faded, and disappeared. Chu Mu heaved a sigh of relief. The lightning just now had directly destroyed more than ten Nirvana Realm cultivators. All of them had turned into ashes under the terrifying lightning.
Chu Mu was also almost struck by the lightning. He was extremely glad.
The terrifying lightning was like a sea, covering a radius of nearly 100,000 meters. That was an area of nearly 200 kilometers. Countless lightning bolts as thick as an arm and a leg crisscrossed. It was incomparably spectacular, causing one's heart to tremble.
"What a terrifying self-explosion."
Outside the sea of lightning, everyone looked at the vast sea of lightning and felt the destructive energy fluctuations. They all sucked in cold breaths.
The power of a peak Seventh Sky of Aeon expert's self-destruction was too terrifying. Everything within a radius of two hundred li was turned into smoke and ash.
"Where is the White Clothed Sword Saint?"
"I don't know."
"He's probably dead."
The power of the explosion was so great that it covered such a large area. The White Clothed Sword Saint was very close to it at that time. He might have been directly affected and died.
Only Chu Mu knew that he wasn't dead. The moment the Purple Thunder Palace Master self-destructed, he had disappeared, returning to the Sword Sect's spiritual seal.
"What a pity." Chu Mu sighed. The Purple Thunder Palace Master's spatial ring had been damaged by the explosion. Everything inside had been destroyed and disappeared.
A peak Seventh Sky of Aeon expert, a palace master, would definitely have many treasures in his spatial ring. If he could obtain them, Chu Mu's wealth would increase greatly.
However, with the self-destruction, everything was gone. Fortunately, when Zi Yi's body was blown apart, his spatial ring was taken by Chu Mu. This could be considered a bit of a harvest.
Although the sea of lightning that covered a radius of two hundred kilometers was slowly weakening, there was still a long period of time before it completely disappeared. The tyrannical thunder energy fluctuation was of great use to the cultivation of thunder energy. However, it wasn't very attractive to Chu Mu because he didn't cultivate thunder energy as his primary cultivation.
If he had nothing else to do, he wouldn't have minded staying for a while. However, he had more important things to do, so he quickly left.
This sea of lightning became a holy land for lightning cultivators for a considerable period of time in the future. It only disappeared a few years later.
…
Chu Mu left on the Giant Sword Flying Ship. With the death of the Purple Thunder Palace Master, the Purple Thunder Mark on his body also disappeared. This meant that from now on, the people of the Purple Thunder Palace could no longer find him because they had never seen what Chu Mu looked like. It could be said that besides the Purple Thunder Mark, they knew nothing about Chu Mu.
After Chu Mu left, some people stayed behind to cultivate. The news that the Purple Thunder Palace Master had been killed by a strange white-clothed sword saint and had finally exploded spread. Soon, everyone in the Firmament Territory knew about it.
At first, they didn't believe it. However, as more and more people spread the news, and some experts specially came to the sea of lightning to check, it was gradually confirmed.
The Wind Tower also confirmed the news. The whole Firmament Territory suddenly fell silent and fell into a strange atmosphere, especially the big forces.
The Purple Thunder Palace, one of the three first-rate forces, occupied the Thunder Mountain Range. They had a deep foundation and many treasures. They had a lot of resources, and many people envied them.
However, the Purple Thunder Palace was too powerful. Even a giant like the Firmament Holy Land was unwilling to have a conflict with the Purple Thunder Palace if there were no great benefits. Although they were sure to win, there would be some losses.
After the news was confirmed, the whole Purple Thunder Palace was in mourning.
The Palace Master was dead, and so were the two Young Palace Masters. The Purple Thunder Palace was leaderless.
In a big force, when there was a leader, it would be unified. Once there was no leader, there would be chaos. Many people had their eyes on the position of the Palace Master. Naturally, there would be conflicts. Moreover, there had been some disputes in the Purple Thunder Palace before. Usually, small conflicts were inevitable. When the Palace Master was alive, he would turn a blind eye to it as long as it didn't threaten the development of the Purple Thunder Palace.
Now, with the death of the Palace Master, the Purple Thunder Palace was leaderless. In order to compete for the position of the Palace Master, small conflicts broke out and quickly expanded into large-scale conflicts.
The Purple Thunder Palace fell into internal strife. Chu Mu was completely excluded because no one thought of him. The position of the Palace Master was the most reliable.
In the various Wind Listening Towers, the people in charge all furrowed their brows. They had already confirmed the death of the Purple Thunder Palace Master. Even the process of the incident had been thoroughly investigated by the Wind Listening Tower. In other words, if someone was interested in the incident, they would know that Chu Mu was the important person that caused the Purple Thunder Palace Master's death. However, the reason why the Wind Listening Tower's people were furrowing their brows was because of the white clothed sword saint that killed the Purple Thunder Palace Master.
The White Sword Saint seemed to have come from the void and disappeared into the void. There was no way to investigate.
Perhaps the only clue that could be investigated was Chu Mu.
For a time, Chu Mu jumped into the eyes of many high-level experts.
"The Purple Thunder Palace Master is dead …" Xia Zhenkong was stunned when he heard the news.
The Purple Thunder Palace Master was an expert who was not inferior to him. Even he was not confident that he could defeat the Palace Master, let alone kill him.
Upon hearing the news, Chu Mu flashed through Xia Zhenkong's mind, but he immediately ruled it out. That was impossible. Chu Mu was indeed amazing. He was at the Seventh Sky of Nirvana Realm and could kill someone at the Ninth Sky of Nirvana Realm as easily as chopping vegetables. However, the Purple Thunder Palace Master was at the peak of the Seventh Sky of Eternal Realm.
There was an insurmountable gap between the Ninth Sky of Nirvana Realm and the First Sky of Eternal Realm, let alone the Seventh Sky of Eternal Realm. It was normal for the strength of each Sky of the Eternal Realm to be a hundred times stronger.
"The White Sword Saint …" Xia Zhenkong muttered to himself, revealing a thoughtful expression.
He could not think of a peerless Sword Saint in the Firmament Territory who possessed Level Nine sword strength and cultivation at the peak of the Seventh Sky of Eternal Realm. He was definitely stronger than him.
…
Inside the Giant Sword, Chu Mu diverted his attention to controlling the flying ship while checking Zi Yi's Space Ring.
Elixirs, Elixirs, Spiritual Herbs, and metal ores were indispensable. In addition, there were rings similar to the ones he had obtained in the Black Demon Abyss. Chu Mu already knew that they were magic treasures that could enhance the power or speed of techniques. They were more high-end and ordinary cultivators could not afford them because they could not afford them.
However, for Chu Mu, they could only be exchanged for Elixirs or things to open the Spiritual Pool.
In addition to the necessary items for cultivators, Chu Mu also found some cultivation methods, sword techniques, and techniques. However, they were relatively ordinary and did not have any special features. They were not useful to Chu Mu. Even those sword techniques could be completely comprehended after seeing them once. They were not useful for accumulating sword techniques.
Chu Mu really wanted to know the cultivation method of the Thunderbolt Shocking God Finger. He was very interested, but unfortunately, there wasn't any inside. As the secret thunder technique of the Purple Thunder Palace, it couldn't be so careless. The most valuable thing was probably a flying ship.
Soon, the Giant Sword flying ship crossed the Firmament Territory and entered the territory of the Canglan Imperial Dynasty.
The return route was not the same as the departure route, but the destination was the same.
After entering the territory of the Canglan Imperial Dynasty, Chu Mu finally felt a little relieved.
He had five chances to ask the five experts of the Sword Sect Spirit Seal for help. Now that he had used up one chance, he felt a little heartache, but it was worth it. At the very least, if an expert like the Purple Thunder Palace Master had his eyes on him, there was no need to talk about whether it was troublesome or not. Even if he had to personally take action, the difference in strength was too great. There was no comparison at all, and only death awaited him.
One chance to kill the Purple Thunder Palace Master was a very worthwhile exchange. After all, those five chances were to save his life. If he lost his life, what was the use of having more chances?
While recalling the battle between the White Sword Saint and the Purple Thunder Palace Master, he piloted the flying ship. Time passed like this.
Chu Mu was getting closer and closer to the True Sword Sect.
