On the battle platform, the two faced each other. Below the platform, thousands of spectators were watching.
"I'll let you last a few more moves." Feeling that Chu Mu was a brainless person, Jiang Ziyu's mood improved a lot. When he spoke, his tone wasn't as aggressive as before.
Of course, he still had to teach Ye Chen a lesson. He had to get his hands on the fire essence. This was related to whether the secret art he cultivated could be used by Dacheng or not.
Some of the more powerful secret arts required the help of some treasures.
"First move." Jiang Ziyu said. His five fingers moved, drawing a small circle in front of him. A fiery red trajectory appeared, converging towards the center and condensing on his index finger. Pointing forward, a scarlet red light shot towards Chu Mu.
A sizzling sound rang out, like water dripping into a pot of oil. Everywhere the scarlet red light passed, the temperature of the air rose sharply.
"Jiang Clan's secret art, Scarlet Flame Finger. Its power is not bad." Someone recognized it and said.
"Jiang Ziyu showed mercy. Otherwise, that finger strike of his would have been able to insta-kill his opponent."
The moment the voice faded, Chu Mu took a step forward, dodging the Scarlet Flame Finger. The Scarlet Flame Finger hit the seal of the battle platform and dissipated.
"Second move." Being dodged by Chu Mu, Jiang Ziyu wasn't surprised at all because he had already shown mercy.
He raised his palm and slapped down. In an instant, a huge fiery red palm condensed in the air and slammed down heavily, as if wanting to smash Chu Mu into a meat patty.
Chu Mu naturally dodged the huge fiery palm as well. The ground of the battle platform shook from the impact, and a powerful force spread out in all directions.
"Seems like Jiang Ziyu is planning to show his true strength after a while." Someone said.
"Bullying the weak like this? Is there any meaning to it?" Someone couldn't stand it anymore and said.
"Third move." Jiang Ziyu ignored the comments of others. His ten fingers flicked out continuously, and streaks of sparks flew towards Chu Mu. They were as dense as a storm.
Sword Light flashed as the Sky Beheading Sword was unsheathed. The sword slashed forward, and under the exquisite sword technique, all the sparks scattered.
"He has some skills."
"Your swordsmanship is not bad."
The eyes of many geniuses who were rather accomplished in the Sword Dao lit up as they were stunned by Chu Mu's sword strike.
"The fourth move." Jiang Ziyu's eyes also lit up. Chu Mu's ordinary sword strike gave him an unfathomable feeling. For the first time, he felt that other than being arrogant and brainless, this person's swordsmanship was not bad.
In the first move, Jiang Ziyu did not use much strength. The second move was slightly stronger, and the third move was even stronger.
Using the ninth move, he flicked his ten fingers at high speed. Sparks flew and turned into flaming butterflies.
The flaming butterflies danced in the air, circling the surroundings. Each of them looked extremely resplendent.
"Fire Butterfly Technique, Jiang Ziyu's famous technique."
"It's the ninth move. He must use his true strength to defeat his opponent. Otherwise, he will lose this bet."
That's right, this was the ninth move. Next would be the tenth move.
The bet between Jiang Ziyu and Chu Mu was that if Jiang Ziyu defeated Chu Mu in ten moves, Chu Mu would have to hand over the Fire Essence to him. Otherwise, if Jiang Ziyu lost, Jiang Ziyu would have to pay three hundred million upper-grade elemental elixirs in addition to the agreed conditions.
The ninth move was the second to last move. There was still a tenth move after that. Within the ten moves, the tenth move was also included.
However, Jiang Ziyu did not plan to let Chu Mu last until the tenth move. In the ninth move, he wanted to finish off Chu Mu and end this unequal battle.
Flaming butterflies the size of a palm circled around Jiang Ziyu's body. His body was surrounded by flames.
This was the famous technique of a one-star mid-stage Saint Realm expert. When he used his true strength, Chu Mu was immediately under great pressure.
"You'd better surrender obediently. Otherwise, under my Fire Butterfly Technique, even if you can survive, you will be injured." Jiang Ziyu sneered.
"Everyone, next, I will use the Sky Strike Sword Style to show you its power. It can still be exchanged. Gold elemental essence or the essence of heaven and earth outside the five elements are also acceptable." Chu Mu spoke as if he did not hear Jiang Ziyu's words. His words were directed at everyone present.
"Even now, he still doesn't forget to make a deal." Some people did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"There is really something wrong with his brain."
"Just looking at a small part of this sword technique, I feel that it is very mysterious. When it is completed, it must be very powerful."
Wang Chuanfeng, the Sword Saints, and other sword cultivators all focused their eyes on Chu Mu.
Chu Mu got into a posture. It looked simple, but it contained infinite mystery. It gave people a feeling that his whole body was fierce and fierce. It was as if every part of his body had a terrible power that could shatter the sky.
Then, there seemed to be power flowing from Chu Mu's body. It flowed from all parts of his body to the long sword in his hand. The sword shone with a cold light. The silver light was threatening and overflowing. Finally, it surged to the tip of the sword. A terrible power gathered at the tip of the sword. It gradually grew stronger, as if an Archean Strange Beast was awakening.
"It's Sword Force!"
"He has mastered Sword Force at the Eighth Sky of Nirvana Realm. It seems that it is high-level Sword Force. His sword talent is really amazing."
Most Sword Principle cultivators only understood the essence of swordsmanship after reaching the Eternal Realm. Only a few Sword Principle cultivators could master swordsmanship at the Nirvana Realm. Most of them could only master low-level swordsmanship.
"Fire Butterfly Art … Hundred Butterflies Flight!" Jiang Ziyu pointed his finger forward. The flaming butterflies around him fluttered their wings and flew towards Chu Mu. Their speed suddenly increased, and there was a feeling of elegance.
Blazing heat approached, almost roasting Chu Mu.
Hundred Butterflies Flight was the first level of Jiang Ziyu's Fire Butterfly Art. He was worried that Chu Mu would be killed. If that happened, he would be in trouble.
As the Hundred Butterflies Flight approached, Chu Mu also stabbed out with his sword.
Wind and thunder surged, and the momentum was terrifying. It was as if the earth was going to crack, and the sky was going to shatter.
A flash of Sword Light blinded everyone's eyes. The terrifying momentum was like a monstrous wave, shocking everyone. The geniuses below the Eternal Realm felt their hearts palpitating and suffocating. It was terrifying. Even a three-star Sword Saint like Wang Chuanfeng was shocked.
"What a powerful sword technique."
"Its power is too terrifying."
"How can this be …" Jiang Ziyu's face was full of shock, but the Fire Butterfly Art had already been executed, and there was nothing he could do to change it.
The Sword Light shattered the sky, and the Hundred Butterflies Flight were all destroyed in an instant. Even the sparks were destroyed by the Sky Attack Sword Light. The terrifying Sword Light boldly blasted towards Jiang Ziyu.
"Scorching Iron Wall!" At the critical moment, Jiang Ziyu hurriedly formed a seal with both hands. His power surged, condensing into a fiery-red iron wall in front of him, blocking the Sky Attack Sword Light.
A terrifying aura surged, and the Scorching Iron Wall was torn apart by the Sky Strike Sword Style. It exploded, and the sword light of the Sky Strike Sword Style dissipated.
After the Sword Light dissipated, a bright silver sword blade was revealed. It pierced through the void, silently stabbing towards Jiang Ziyu. Before Jiang Ziyu could react, the sword lightly touched Jiang Ziyu's forehead and quickly retracted.
Everyone's face was filled with astonishment, including Jiang Ziyu. He had a look of disbelief on his face.
He had actually been defeated. A dignified mid-stage First Heavenly Layer peerless genius had actually been defeated by an early-stage Eighth Heavenly Layer peerless genius.
If that sword had been filled with killing intent, it would have pierced through his forehead, shattering his soul, and obliterating him.
Jiang Ziyu's face was incomparably ugly, turning green, then red, then white.
He admitted that he had been careless, underestimating his opponent. He hadn't displayed the full power of the Hundred Butterflies Flight. However, he had to admit that this early-stage Eighth Heavenly Layer outsider's strength was extremely terrifying. One had to know that even if the Hundred Butterflies Flight wasn't at its full power, it could still kill an ordinary mid-stage First Heavenly Layer expert.
"Jiang Ziyu actually lost."
"Impossible, this doesn't conform to the rules of cultivation."
"If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it even if you beat me to death."
"Jiang Ziyu lost, and he lost after his famous technique was broken. The power of that sword was incomparably terrifying, and the second sword was also a terrifying sword technique." The Sword Saints who saw through the profundity of the sword technique were shocked, and they couldn't help but sigh.
First, it was the Sky Strike Sword Style that destroyed the Fire Butterfly Technique and the Scorching Iron Wall. The second sword technique was executed silently, and it was difficult to detect. It was impossible to guard against.
With just these two sword techniques, they could see how strong this early-stage Eighth Heavenly Layer peerless genius was. The two sword techniques were terrifyingly powerful, and the combination of them could be said to be perfect. His grasp of timing was also exquisite to the extreme.
The Martial Saints all had serious looks in their eyes.
"Even if Jiang Ziyu didn't use his full strength, it's a fact that he can fight against a First Heavenly Layer expert with his early Eighth Heavenly Layer cultivation base."
"Fighting across two Heavenly Layers?"
"No, you can't count it that way. The gap between the Nirvana Realm and the Eternal Realm is many times greater than the gap between two Heavenly Layers. If this kid really has such strength, he's definitely not a peerless genius, but a monstrous genius. Only a monstrous genius can achieve this." A four-star Saint peerless genius said solemnly.
"Whether he's a monstrous genius or not is still unknown, but this kid has indeed displayed astonishing strength. From now on, I have to look at him more highly."
"You've lost, it's time to exchange your bet." Chu Mu stood in front of Jiang Ziyu and said indifferently.
There was a red dot in between Jiang Ziyu's eyebrows, which was caused by Chu Mu's sword tip.
Indeed, it was a draw, otherwise, Jiang Ziyu would have died on the spot. Jiang Ziyu felt that he had only used a part of his strength, and not all of it. How could Chu Mu have held back?
"I, Jiang Ziyu, am a man of my words." Jiang Ziyu said, gritting his teeth. He was incomparably annoyed. "Three hundred million high-grade elemental pills, I'll give it to you now. I'll also agree to the additional conditions."
"Remember, there's not one additional condition, but two. As for which two, I know, you know, and everyone here knows." Chu Mu said.
