(Those who didn't vote, step forward. Chu Mu guarantees that he won't chop you to death.)
There were three piles of stones in front of him.
Each stone was about the size of an egg, round like a pebble, and red in color. It wasn't blood red, but the red of the sun. It emitted a warm aura.
Traces of red aura condensed around the stones.
At first glance, Chu Mu knew that the three piles of stones were good stuff. The warmth they emitted was pure Yang Qi.
Raising his hand and grabbing the air, a rock fell into Chu Mu's hand. It felt warm to the touch, like a polished jade. Through the touch of his hand, Chu Mu could feel the dense and pure Yang aura contained within.
"Pure Yang Stone!" Chu Mu's voice was filled with surprise.
Pure Yang Stone, as the name implied, was a stone that contained pure Yang Qi. It wasn't a stone that contained pure Yang Qi. Even if it was a Pure Yang Stone, there were many stones that contained pure Yang Qi in the Profound Yang World. However, the pure Yang Qi they contained was very thin and messy. Only those that contained pure and rich pure Yang Qi could be considered a Pure Yang Stone.
Holding the stone in his hand, Chu Mu had a feeling that the effect of using the Pure Yang Stone to cultivate was much better than absorbing the pure Yang Qi in the Profound Yang Palace.
Looking at the three piles of Pure Yang Stones, each pile had more than ten thousand pieces. The three piles added up to more than thirty thousand pieces.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yun sent all the Pure Yang Stones into his interspatial ring.
After collecting the Pure Yang Stone, Chu Mu looked around. In this large hall, there was nothing else except for the murals on the walls. They were still sword technique murals, but they were different from the ones in the hallway. This was another sword technique.
The further Chu Mu walked on the Sword Dao, the more he understood his lack of accumulation. Therefore, regardless of whether the sword art was brilliant or not, he would spend some time to memorize it. Under the operation of his thoughts, he quickly grasped the essence of the sword art, adding a trace to his accumulation.
Since there was nothing else, Chu Mu turned around, removed the seal he placed and walked out of the side hall.
… …
"There are quite a lot of sword techniques in the Profound Yang Palace." Chu Mu muttered as he memorized the sword techniques on the wall in front of him.
The sword technique in front of him was the ninth sword technique he had seen after entering the Profound Yang Palace. It was also the most profound sword technique among the nine so far. If it was categorized according to grade, it would be an Earth Grade sword technique.
In fact, there were more than nine sword techniques on the murals, but there were more than twenty of them. However, some of them were repeated.
In addition, Chu Mu also quickly realized that the nine sword techniques seemed to be progressing one level at a time. There was some connection between each of them, from simple to profound.
Chu Mu didn't think too much about it. He just memorized it and comprehended its essence, accumulating it into his own swordsmanship.
…
"Such a huge ancient sect, yet their sword techniques are so weak." Ao Zhenheng glanced at the sword techniques recorded on the wall and shook his head in disappointment. This was the fifth sword technique he had seen, and each one of them was so low-level. There was nothing profound about them.
Ao Zhenheng simply gave up on studying the sword techniques on the murals.
"Even if there were profound sword techniques, they wouldn't be carved on the murals for others to learn." Ao Zhenheng said.
This was a very normal practice, no matter which sect it was.
Only those ordinary sword techniques would be carved on the murals for others to comprehend and learn. It was also a kind of decoration.
The others who were interested in sword techniques were the same as Ao Zhenheng. After discovering that the sword techniques on the murals were very ordinary, they lost interest. Only Chu Mu memorized every sword technique he saw, comprehending its essence without letting it go.
Chu Mu's situation was different from them. Because the Sword Dao he walked was to read all the sword techniques in the world, accumulate knowledge, and create his own. This was undoubtedly a difficult path. Therefore, Chu Mu would pay attention to any sword technique he saw and strive to master it.
Moreover, Chu Mu's soul was very powerful, and his comprehension ability was extremely high. He could memorize any ordinary sword technique as soon as he saw it, and quickly comprehend its essence, giving rise to his own unique understanding, and directly turning that sword technique into his own.
If other people had Chu Mu's ability, they wouldn't need to spend time to comprehend any sword technique. However, they didn't. Even Ao Zhenheng, a monstrous sword genius, didn't have such ability. If Ao Zhenheng wanted to learn an ordinary sword technique, he would need to spend some time, and even more time to grasp its essence. This time was at least a few times more than Chu Mu.
…
"Dan Palace."
Raising his head slightly, he could see the two big words on the side palace in front of him.
Not all the side palaces had names. At least, Chu Mu had entered six side palaces, and only the seventh one in front of him had a name.
A side palace with a name was definitely more important.
The two words' Dan Palace 'made it easier for people to understand what it meant.
Dan Palace, in other words, was an alchemy room. It could also be a storehouse for medicinal pills, etc.
To a cultivator, the cultivation environment was very important. Cultivation techniques were also very important. Cultivation resources were also very important. Medicinal pills were one of the cultivation resources.
Chu Mu immediately walked into the Dan Palace, and his expression changed slightly.
There were already people in the Dan Palace. The human race and the King Zhang Tribe were confronting each other. In between them, there were three huge bronze alchemy furnaces.
The surroundings were empty. Even if there were medicinal pills, they should be in the three alchemy furnaces.
Chu Mu could feel that the three alchemy furnaces were covered with a layer of invisible energy, locking the alchemy furnaces and protecting them. From the looks of it, there must be medicinal pills in the three alchemy furnaces. Moreover, they weren't ordinary medicinal pills.
The human race had six Saint level experts, and the King Zhang Tribe had five Saint level experts. In terms of individual strength, under normal circumstances, the King Zhang Tribe's strength was slightly higher. Hence, six humans against five King Zhang Tribe's were considered to be evenly matched.
When Chu Mu arrived, everyone's gaze fell on his face.
If Chu Mu was just an ordinary Nirvana Realm expert, they wouldn't put him in their eyes at all. However, the problem was that although Chu Mu's cultivation was in the Nirvana Realm, his strength wasn't in the Nirvana Realm. The scene of him killing the Sea Serpent Clan's Three Star Saint level expert was still fresh in everyone's mind. Such an impactful scene was unforgettable.
A monstrous genius with the strength of a Three Star Saint was enough to change the situation in front of them.
"Human, come over and help us get the medicinal pills in the alchemy furnaces. We can resolve the hatred of the Sea Serpent Clan for you." A King Zhang Tribe's Middle Saint level expert rolled his eyes and immediately said to Chu Mu.
"Little friend, don't listen to their nonsense. They're from the Sea Clan, not our clan. They're definitely lying to you. After we get the medicinal pills, we'll get rid of you." A human Saint level expert quickly said.
"That's right. We're all from the Human Clan. We should be united against the outside world." A second human Saint level expert quickly followed.
At this time, Chu Mu had become the key figure. Whichever side he leaned towards would have the advantage. After all, there were low-level and mid-level Saints from the Human Clan and the King Zhang Tribe present.
"I don't think your King Zhang Tribe has the ability to make the Sea Serpent Clan give up their hatred for me." Chu Mu looked at the people from the King Zhang Tribe and said unhurriedly, "Moreover, I'm from the Human Clan. I have a conflict with your Sea Clan. Do you think I'll side with your Sea Clan?"
"You can't say that. You have a conflict with the Shark Clan and the Sea Serpent Clan, not our King Zhang Tribe …" The mid-level Saint level expert from the King Zhang Tribe wanted to say something.
"Alright, there's no need to say anymore. Can't you see that he's mocking us?" Another mid-level Saint level expert from the King Zhang Tribe interrupted him coldly.
After saying that, the King Zhang Tribe's experts glared at Chu Mu. They looked like they wanted to kill Chu Mu on the spot.
"You only have two choices. Leave or die." A mid-level Saint level expert from the Human Clan smiled and said coldly to the King Zhang Tribe's expert.
With Chu Mu, the Human Clan had the advantage, which was disadvantageous for the King Zhang Tribe.
The five King Zhang Tribe's experts were shocked and angry.
The other side had six, no, seven people from the Human Clan. One of them was a mid-level Saint level expert, but he was a heaven level genius. His individual strength was not to be underestimated.
Because of Chu Mu's arrival, the balance was broken. Once they attacked, they might be able to kill one or two of the Human Clan's experts, but all five of them would be killed.
After weighing the pros and cons, the five King Zhang Tribe's experts felt that they should retreat. At the same time, they stared at Chu Mu with cold eyes. If looks could kill, Chu Mu would be riddled with holes by now.
Chu Mu's expression didn't change, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. This time, even the King Zhang Tribe was offended by him.
Shark Clan, Sea Snake Clan, King Zhang Tribe …
Just thinking about it made him feel excited.
After the King Zhang Tribe left the Pill Hall, there were only seven Human Clan's experts left in the Pill Hall.
"Retrieve the pills." The six Saint level experts immediately took action. They skillfully broke the defensive power of the three alchemy cauldrons and opened the cauldrons. A burst of strange pill fragrance immediately spread out from the cauldrons. Traces of white qi condensed on the cauldrons and turned into the shape of a dragon. Then, it dispersed and turned into the shape of a phoenix. The dragon and phoenix danced, intertwining and chasing each other.
"Flying Dragon and Dancing Phoenix!" The six Human Clan's experts were delighted.
This was a phenomenon of a pill. It meant that the pill's grade was extremely high.
Among the six, the strongest six-star Saint level expert stretched out his hand and suppressed the phenomenon. He turned to look at Chu Mu.
"Little friend Chu Mu, thank you for your help just now. Now, we won't trouble you anymore." The six-star Saint level expert said with a smile. It gave Chu Mu a feeling that there was a knife hidden in his smile.
The other five's expressions were either sneering, ignoring, or frowning. Some couldn't bear it.
Chu Mu frowned slightly. He didn't say anything and quickly retreated out of the Pill Hall. However, he remembered the six of them.
Although the six of them didn't say that they could share the pills as long as Chu Mu was on their side, it was also because of Chu Mu's arrival that the five King Zhang Tribe's experts were forced to retreat. In a sense, Chu Mu had contributed a lot. In the end, they burned the bridge after crossing the river.
If it wasn't because he wasn't strong enough, Chu Mu would have already taken the three cauldrons of pills and killed anyone who tried to stop him.
