With a flash of the Sword Light, a wisp of cloud appeared out of thin air and gathered rapidly. With a flash of the Sword Light, the wisps of cloud converged in the blink of an eye. A three-meter-wide white cloud appeared, rolling over and over.
Chu Mu flicked his wrist and the fake Clear Wind Sword vibrated. The tip of the sword vibrated rapidly at a speed that was difficult to be seen by the naked eye. The three-meter-wide white cloud suddenly stopped and then shattered. Streaks of cloud-type sword Qi shot out in all directions, making the sharp sound of the air being torn apart. It made one's scalp tingle.
Sheathing the sword, Chu Mu had a faint smile on his face. "As expected, actual combat is the best way to cultivate."
Although the Cloud Sea Swordsmanship and the Cloud Breaking Swordsmanship were still quite far away from perfection, Chu Mu had found another way to grasp the essence of them. The battle with the dozen or so swordsmen who came to challenge him allowed Chu Mu to grasp the alternating connection and fusion between the Cloud Sea Swordsmanship and the Cloud Breaking Swordsmanship.
It was quite difficult to switch between different swordsmanship, even if they were of the same type. It was even more difficult to perform alternating swordsmanship as one wished. After all, different swordsmanships had their own characteristics, styles, and quintessence. It was almost impossible to integrate the differences, but Chu Mu did it.
Today was the tenth day since Chu Mu defeated the dozen or so swordsmen who challenged him. Ever since those people were defeated, they felt that they had lost all face and did not dare to come to the Qingfeng Courtyard to make a scene. The Qingfeng Courtyard finally had a temporary peace.
When Luo Yufeng and the others saw that Chu Mu was able to defeat the dozen or so swordsmen, they were deeply stimulated. They worked even harder in their cultivation, squeezing out all the time they could to devote to endless cultivation.
After ten days of comprehension and cultivation, Chu Mu was finally able to connect the Cloud Sea Sword Technique and Cloud Shattering Sword Technique as he wished. There wasn't the slightest bit of delay. However, he knew that this was only the first step. The following steps were even more important.
After returning to his pavilion, a thought suddenly popped up in Chu Mu's mind. It seemed that there was a high rank sword technique, a super rank sword technique, and a high rank sword technique in his spatial bracelet.
Even though he had to cultivate the brutal Dark Blood Sword Qi to master them, this did not stop Chu Mu from studying them. It would be best if he could extract the useful parts from them and use them for himself.
This was because if Chu Mu wanted to upgrade the Cloudshock Kill to a high-grade sword skill, and a powerful one at that, he would definitely need more inspiration.
After returning to his pavilion, he took out three books from his Space Bracelet and flipped through them one by one.
The Dark Blood Sword Art, Bloody Slaughter Sword Art, and Dark Blood Sword Burst were all related to blood. Theoretically speaking, as long as one cultivated a blood-elemental sword Qi technique, they would be able to cultivate these two sword arts and one sword skill. However, in order to unleash their full power, one had to cultivate the Dark Blood Sword Qi technique.
After carefully reading through them, Chu Mu put away the Dark Blood Sword Art and Bloody Slaughter Sword Art. This was because Chu Mu's intuition told him that these two sword arts would not be of much help to him in upgrading the Cloudshock Kill.
On the contrary, the advanced sword skill, Dark Blood Sword Explosion, gave Chu Mu a glimmer of hope.
Both the Dark Blood Sword Art and the Bloody Slaughter Sword Art had their own killing moves. The Dark Blood Sword Explosion was stronger than the Dark Blood Sword Art's killing move, but it was far weaker than the Bloody Slaughter Sword Art's killing move. After all, the difference between the Advanced Level and the Super Level was very obvious.
After reading the Dark Blood Sword Explosion again, he carefully comprehended it and gradually entered a state of comprehension based on his feelings.
…
In the backyard of the Qingfeng Courtyard, Chu Mu was cultivating the Cloud Sea Sword Art and the Cloud Shattering Sword Art.
These two incomplete advanced sword arts were performed naturally by Chu Mu. They were interconnected and there was no flaw to be found. Li Yi and the others stopped cultivating and stood aside to watch. They felt tormented.
Their torment wasn't sadness, but a unique feeling that was a mixture of shock and motivation. Thinking back to when they were still bitterly training one sword technique, Chu Mu had already reached the stage where he could connect and even merge two sword techniques.
Countless clouds revolved around the surroundings, practically filling half of the back courtyard. It enveloped a radius of ten to twenty meters. Chu Mu waved his sword in the middle of the clouds. Cold light overlapped, and his footsteps were disorderly. His figure leaped and flipped, constantly changing.
Cracking sounds were constantly heard. They were not loud, but they were ear-piercing. These cracking sounds made the clouds surge even more violently. When these slight cracking sounds fell into the ears of Luo Yufeng and the others, their faces changed unconsciously. The corners of their eyes twitched slightly, and their scalps went numb.
Previously, they had tried it out of curiosity. That feeling made them feel very uncomfortable. It was as if they were in a vast sea of clouds and could not see anything. Moreover, the sea of clouds around them was constantly cracking and exploding. The explosions made their blood and Sword Qi turbulent, making it difficult for them to control.
They did not want to experience that feeling of not being able to control themselves a second time.
From Chu Mu's words, they guessed that Chu Mu was currently creating a sword art.
This made them even more surprised. Creating a sword art was not so easy. Li Yi and the other two had comprehended the Qingfeng Sword Stele, and in the end, only Yuwen Wenhua had barely comprehended an intermediate sword art. It still needed a few months to perfect it.
Now Chu Mu was going to create a sword art. Looking at the situation, it did not seem to be a low or intermediate sword art. How could they not be surprised? In the entire Sword Academy, who would dare to say that they had created a sword art?
On second thought, such an awesome Chu Mu was their Junior Brother. Although having such a Junior Brother gave them a lot of pressure, from another point of view, it also gave them a lot of face.
Just as Luo Yufeng and the others were thinking, Chu Mu finished cultivating and sheathed his sword. However, he stood motionless in place. His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.
Time passed little by little. The air in the backyard seemed to be about to solidify. Luo Yufeng and the others frowned slightly, feeling a little breathless.
Suddenly, they saw a dazzling light burst out in front of their eyes. Then, they heard the ear-piercing sound of metal rubbing against each other. Their minds went blank in an instant.
In front of them, only a white cloud appeared. In an instant, it shattered and was annihilated. The whole process was very short, just in the blink of an eye. Moreover, streaks of white cloud sword Qi shot out in all directions, making an incomparably sharp sound. The momentum was terrifying.
In the eyes of Luo Yufeng and the others, this move was extremely powerful. If they were not protected by the sword Qi armor, once they were hit, they would definitely die. Even if they were protected by the sword Qi armor, they would most likely be injured.
However, Chu Mu frowned slightly. He was not satisfied. In his eyes, the feeling when he first attacked was very good. However, after the explosion, the white cloud sword Qi was not strong enough. Moreover, it did not have enough momentum. In terms of power, it was much more powerful than the Shocking Cloud Kill, but it still did not reach the level of an advanced sword art.
He sheathed his sword again and fell into deep thought. After a while, he drew his sword again and slashed out.
This repeated a few times. Although the sword art he used was more powerful, it was still limited to the level of an intermediate sword art. There was always a layer of barrier that could not be broken through.
"Looks like the Cloud Sea Sword Art and the Cloud Shattering Sword Art are both incomplete advanced sword arts. It's not enough. If only one of them was an advanced sword art, maybe it would be enough," Chu Mu thought to himself. Then, an idea flashed through his mind, "Dark Blood Sword Explosion …"
Advanced sword arts were not so easy to comprehend. Chu Mu spent a total of ten days to comprehend the Dark Blood Sword Explosion. However, because of the sword Qi, he did not cultivate it.
Although he had comprehended it, he still had no idea how to use it. At this moment, Chu Mu suddenly had an idea.
Strictly speaking, the Dark Blood Sword Explosion could be divided into two parts: Dark Blood and Sword Explosion. Dark Blood referred to the unique power of the Dark Blood Sword Qi as a prerequisite. Sword Explosion was the release of this unique power. Although Chu Mu did not cultivate it, he could feel the terrifying power after comprehending it.
"I can't cultivate Dark Blood, but Sword Explosion … I can try to integrate it into the Shocking Cloud Kill. In this way, the power will definitely increase by a lot. However, at that time, it will not be suitable to call it the Shocking Cloud Kill. After I master it, I will think of a new name, "Chu Mu thought to himself.
This was not something that could be done overnight. Chu Mu immediately said goodbye to Luo Yufeng and the others and left the backyard to return to the pavilion.
In the next few days, Chu Mu was completely immersed in the fusion of the strengthened Shocking Cloud Kill and Sword Burst. He also felt that the bottleneck of his cloud concept seemed to be loosening. There was a wave of energy that was restless. He only needed to break through the bottleneck.
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed. It was exactly thirty days since Chu Mu found the Cloud Sea Sword Technique and the Cloud Breaking Sword Technique. It was a full month.
It was still Qingfeng Courtyard's back courtyard, but only Chu Mu was there. He stood there motionless, but his eyes were abnormally bright. His radiance shot in all directions and was extremely oppressive. If someone looked carefully at Chu Mu's eyes, they would find that there seemed to be wisps of clouds in the bottom of Chu Mu's eyes. The Sword Qi in his body was surging violently.
He attacked abruptly, and with a flash of sword light, he swung his sword. Instantly, clouds gathered, and white clouds surged forward. Like a gust of wind, within this white cloud with a diameter of five meters, there were ten white clouds with a diameter of less than half a meter that rotated without any pattern.
After the huge white cloud rushed out for more than ten meters, it suddenly exploded. Under the collision, countless white clouds of Sword Qi, each as thick as a finger, were filled with sharpness like sharp swords. They tore in all directions and directly covered an area of twenty meters. The sharp sound of cutting made people's scalps tingle and their expressions change greatly.
Chu Mu's face revealed a satisfied smile. Suddenly, his expression changed. He felt that there seemed to be a vibration in his soul, as if something had pierced through the membrane. The clouds in the bottom of his eyes became denser.
