"Brother Li, this Ao Zhenheng is worthy of being called the Shattered Heaven Palace's number one Sword Dao monstrous genius ah, his reputation as Scar of the Heavens is well deserved. When this child grows up, your Shattered Heaven Palace will have another peerless master." In the distance, a mid-level Saint said to another mid-level Saint.
"Haha, Young Palace Master Ao is indeed the pride of our Shattered Heaven Palace." The mid-level Saint surnamed Li laughed.
The Genius Small World contained many geniuses. The outer disciples had different identities in the outside world. For example, this Li man's identity in the outside world was an Elder of Shattered Heaven Palace.
At this time, watching Ao Zhenheng repeatedly kill, he had no intention of stopping him. Even if Chu Mu was really killed by Ao Zhenheng, although the upper echelons of the Genius Small World would be angry, they would not become enemies with Shattered Heaven Palace.
A dead genius was not a genius.
The sword in Ao Zhenheng's hand slashed out one after another from different angles. Each slash was extremely fast, as if riding the wind.
Eighteen Styles of Flying Heavens!
This was one of Shattered Heaven Palace's powerful close combat sword techniques, Ao Zhenheng had mastered three of its essence.
Eighteen slashes in a flash, eighteen slashes in a flash, each slash was fatal.
If it were other people, they would definitely die under Ao Zhenheng's sword, but Chu Mu would not. Eighteen slashes were completely blocked by Chu Mu before he counterattacked.
Ao Zhenheng displayed another sword technique, the Seven Styles of Shattering Heaven. Its power was even more tyrannical than the Eighteen Styles of Flying Heavens. Chu Mu also displayed a sword technique to resist.
In the blink of an eye, Ao Zhenheng displayed more than a dozen sword techniques. Some were Shattered Heaven Palace's inheritance sword techniques, some were sword techniques he obtained from his adventures in the outside world. No matter which one it was, they were all very powerful. Moreover, Ao Zhenheng had grasped the essence of each sword technique.
Different sword techniques, each one was very tyrannical. Ao Zhenheng had completely grasped the essence of each sword technique, mesmerizing everyone watching.
However, it was completely useless against Chu Mu. Chu Mu did not display many sword techniques, only a few, but with these few sword techniques, he was able to resist Ao Zhenheng's different sword techniques and counterattack.
From this point of view, Chu Mu was more brilliant.
A battle between sword cultivators was extremely dangerous, especially in close combat. Every sword strike could take a life, and one could be killed if they were not careful.
The intense battle between Chu Mu and Ao Zhenheng made everyone exclaim in delight, but at the same time, they all felt their scalps go numb. They felt as if they were in the middle of the battle and were being sliced by sword qi, causing pain all over their bodies.
After using a dozen different sword techniques, none of them could do anything to Chu Mu. Ao Zhenheng's heart was gloomy, and his killing intent was even stronger. Such a person definitely couldn't be allowed to live, or else he would be a threat to himself. Moreover, the opponent could feel his killing intent. Since they were already enemies, he couldn't hold back.
Ao Zhenheng's cultivation was one Greater Celestial Layer and three Lesser Celestial Layers higher than Chu Mu. His cultivation technique could also be considered divine grade. The power of his sword qi was not much weaker than Chu Mu's. His sword techniques were powerful, and his sword intent was shocking. He could be considered an extremely strong opponent.
Ao Zhenheng continuously displayed more than a dozen sword techniques, but they were all blocked by Chu Mu. At the same time, Chu Mu secretly memorized them. When he had time, he would comprehend and analyze them to increase his accumulation of sword techniques.
Ao Zhenheng's killing intent grew stronger, and Chu Mu could feel it even more clearly. He increased his strength and forced Ao Zhenheng back with a sword strike.
The Sword Light condensed and silently stabbed out with incomparable speed. Ao Zhenheng only felt his hair stand on end, and his expression changed greatly. He hurriedly retreated and brandished his Sword Light. The chaotic sword light condensed in front of him, and it was impenetrable.
A slight sound rang out beside his ear, but it made Ao Zhenheng panic. He only felt a trace of coldness sweep past his ear, taking away a few strands of his hair. Just a little bit more, and he would have been hit. According to the speed and sharpness of that sword, if he had been hit, he would have died on the spot.
Ao Zhenheng immediately understood. He had a killing intent towards his opponent, and his opponent probably wanted to kill him as well.
"Heaven Breaking Sword Secret, Sword Qi Return to Origin!"
Ao Zhenheng did not hesitate. He stretched out his left hand, and his fingers formed a sword. He quickly tapped his chest seven times, and each tap landed on a different spot.
When the seventh strike landed, a terrifying power erupted from Ao Zhenheng's body. That power turned into a suction force, and as rumbling sounds echoed in the air, it absorbed the Yuan Qi from the world in an extremely domineering manner, as if it was plundering it, and refined it into Sword Origin.
Usually, when cultivators cultivated, the method of absorbing heaven and earth origin energy was to swallow and spit it out. Absorbing a part of it would naturally give back a part of it, forming a virtuous cycle that would not cause the heaven and earth origin energy to dry up.
But the secret technique Ao Zhenheng was using right now was an extremely tyrannical secret technique recorded in the Heaven Breaking Sword Manual of the Heaven Breaking Sword Palace. It plundered heaven and earth origin energy, and in an instant, it strengthened his Sword Qi and increased his strength.
In just a short three breaths of time, an endless amount of heaven and earth origin energy was swallowed. Ao Zhenheng's body seemed to have turned into a black hole, swallowing everything. The terrifying Sword Qi scattered all around him was also torn apart.
"This guy's Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique has also been cultivated to the second layer." Man Zhan's eyes shone brightly, and he was somewhat excited.
The Heaven Breaking Sword Manual's Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique had a total of three layers. Shattering Heaven Palace, Heaven Suppressing Sect, Heaven Splitting Hall, and Heaven Combining Sect all had three layers. The second layer could increase one's strength by ten times, and the third layer could increase one's strength by a hundred times.
The first layer was easy to cultivate, and the second layer could be cultivated with some time and treasures. However, the third layer was very difficult to cultivate. At least for now, it was an extravagant hope.
However, the second layer could increase one's strength by ten times. With their current strength, another ten times would be extremely terrifying.
Immediately, Man Zhan and the other two stared at Chu Mu. From the battle just now, Chu Mu's strength should be slightly higher than Ao Zhenheng's, but he was unable to suppress Ao Zhenheng. If he didn't have any tricks up his sleeve, facing Ao Zhenheng who used Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique would be very dangerous.
A thought flashed through their minds.
From the battle with Man Zhan until now, even when he attacked in anger, Chu Mu didn't lose his mind. The strength he displayed was only slightly higher than Ao Zhenheng.
Ao Zhenheng who didn't use any secret technique was probably between an ordinary one star Saint and two star Saint. It wouldn't be difficult for Chu Mu to kill him. However, there were many people watching, and he didn't want to expose his full strength. The strength and talent he revealed now was enough to make him the center of attention. After accumulating, his reputation would reach an extremely high level. It was necessary to preserve a little bit of his strength.
A monstrous genius who could fight and kill a one star Saint and a monstrous genius who could kill a two star Saint were two different levels.
Of course, if someone investigated, they would know that Chu Mu came from the Canglan Empire and so on. They would also know what happened back then. When they heard that Chu Mu killed a two star Saint, they wouldn't be so direct. Because they didn't see it with their own eyes, they would have doubts. They would think that Chu Mu used a secret technique, or that the Canglan Empire's Saint experts weren't strong enough and couldn't be compared to the Ancient Heaven Domain's Saint experts.
Since he wanted to preserve his strength and kill Ao Zhenheng, Chu Mu only had one method, and that was to use a secret technique.
With a thought, the secret technique was used. Divine Wilderness Unity Secret Technique.
The Divine Wilderness Unity Secret Technique was a secret technique that came with the Divine Wilderness Sword Art. If successfully used, it could increase one's strength by ten times, just like Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique.
Chu Mu stood in the void. A circle of yellowish-brown ripples spread out from his feet. In the blink of an eye, it covered tens of thousands of meters of the void.
Wherever the ripples passed, strands of energy were stripped away and turned into reverse ripples. They rapidly contracted and entered Chu Mu's feet.
The two ripples that went in opposite directions gave people a dazzling feeling.
"What kind of secret technique is this?"
"It gives off an ancient feeling."
"This kid must have some ancient inheritance on him."
Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique tyrannically plundered the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth, turning into a black hole vortex that swallowed everything. On the other hand, Divine Wilderness Unity Secret Technique didn't seem that tyrannical, nor was it that shocking. However, if one looked carefully, they would discover that the two ripples of Divine Wilderness Unity Secret Technique weren't affected by Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique at all.
The two sides were only a few hundred meters apart. Chu Mu's Divine Wilderness Unity Secret Technique naturally swept past where Ao Zhenheng was. Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique wasn't affected, nor was Divine Wilderness Unity Secret Technique.
However, the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was being fought over by the two secret techniques.
The Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth was forcibly divided into two halves. One half was absorbed by Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique, increasing Ao Zhenheng's strength. The other half was absorbed by Chu Mu, causing Chu Mu's aura to constantly rise.
The previous showdown of sword techniques had turned into a showdown of secret techniques.
Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique of the Heaven Sundering Sword Manual!
Divine Wilderness Secret Technique of the Divine Wilderness Secret Technique!
More than half of the Sound Bamboo Forest below had been destroyed due to the battle between the two. The remaining half, under the plundering of the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth by these two mystic arts, rapidly lost its green color and became dry and yellow. Wrinkles and cracks appeared on it, and then it became brittle and grayish-white. Cracks appeared on it, like a spider web densely covering it.
This was a sign that it had lost its vitality.
The two secret techniques were too tyrannical. As they clashed, their tyrannical index rose sharply, devouring the vitality of all things.
This scene immediately caused the faces of the spectators in the distance to change greatly. They hurriedly retreated even further.
Man Zhan, Xiaoze, and Ji Caiyi had already retreated tens of thousands of meters away. This was because when the ripples of the Divine Wilderness Secret Technique swept past them, they felt their strength becoming restless, as if it was showing signs of going out of control.
With their strength, they could naturally resist, but now they were only watching others fight. There was no need to consume their strength to resist the aftermath of the secret techniques.
The mighty momentum spread hundreds of thousands of meters away. The terrifying Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth overflowed, and there seemed to be a shadow in the sky.
The fluctuations became more and more intense. After reaching the peak, they suddenly turned and quickly calmed down. This meant that whether it was Ao Zhenheng's Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique or Chu Mu's Divine Wilderness Secret Technique, they had both been successfully used.
Under the Sword Qi Unity Secret Technique, Ao Zhenheng's body was surrounded by a white air current. It was extremely fierce and astonishing. Chu Mu's body didn't have any strange phenomenon, but his aura had soared.
