In the blink of an eye, Chu Mu disappeared.
… …
"Fortunately, the clan was prepared." In front of a wall, a Celestial youth muttered to himself. His body emitted a translucent milky-white luster, exuding a divine aura. His eyes gradually changed. Two dots of light flickered as they landed on the wall in front of him and swept past it.
"After activating the Divine Heart, Daolin will enter the Divine Realm. The sword technique on the wall will definitely be deciphered quickly," another Celestial youth said.
The Divine Heart was an extremely important secret treasure of the Celestial Race. It was mysterious and unfathomable. Normally, it would not be used. Only important figures of the Celestial Race were qualified to use it.
The Celestial youth who was using the Divine Heart was one of the Celestial Race's monstrous geniuses. He had an extraordinary status in the Celestial Race.
The Celestial Race only had one surname — Tian!
After the surname was the word of seniority, such as Dao, and finally one's name, such as Lin.
Tian Daolin was the name of the Dao generation of the Celestial Race.
In the Divine Realm, Tian Daolin entered an indescribable state. It was as if his Yuan Spirit had left his body, freely traveling through the entire Profound Yang Palace. He sensed and remembered the sword technique on the wall, analyzing and comparing it with the sword marks on the wall in front of him.
… …
In a momentary daze, Chu Mu clearly saw his surroundings.
In a very spacious place, there was only a stone stele in the middle. It was shaped like a sword and pointed straight to the sky. It had a mighty, upright, and righteous aura that no evil could invade.
On this pure red, sword-shaped stone stele, two large characters were deeply engraved, as if they were an eternal imprint.
These two large characters were extremely ancient. They were not modern characters, but ancient characters. Chu Mu carefully examined them and vaguely recognized them as the words' Boundary Stele '.
The characters of the present day were inextricably linked to the ancient characters. It could be said that the characters of the present day did not appear out of thin air, but were born from the ancient characters. Therefore, the characters looked more or less similar, just that some characters had more similarities than others.
The word 'Boundary' on the Boundary Stele had a 40% similarity between the ancient and modern words, making it easier to distinguish. The word 'Stele' was less than 20% similar, but Chu Mu was able to deduce it from the word 'Boundary'.
"Boundary Stele!" Chu Mu's eyes were very, very bright, and his breathing became rapid.
Originally, he didn't have much hope in competing for the Boundary Stele. He just wanted to fight for it if he could and give up if he couldn't. After all, he was too weak to fight against those mid-level and high-level Martial Saints.
Who would have thought that he would actually arrive before the Boundary Stele? From the looks of it, he was the first one.
Firstly, it meant that he was very likely to refine the Boundary Stele and control the Profound Sun Realm, becoming the master of the Profound Sun Realm. This change made Chu Mu's heart beat several times faster. The blood in his body surged like the water of a great river, flowing endlessly.
Taking a deep breath, Chu Mu felt his body brimming with energy as he strode toward the Boundary Stele.
The excitement in his heart gradually calmed down. Chu Mu's thoughts started to operate and he gradually understood something.
It turned out that there was a test from the moment he entered the Profound Sun Palace. And the test was the sword techniques on the walls of the corridor and the side hall.
Only by grasping the twenty sword techniques on the wall and reaching a dead end would he be able to better comprehend the Great Profound Sun Sword and obtain the opportunity to come into contact with the Boundary Stele.
It had to be said that the method set up by the Great Profound Sun Sword Palace was very simple, but it was also very difficult.
How many people would pay special attention to the sword techniques on the wall?
There would definitely be more than one. But the problem was that after paying attention a few times, they would realize that the sword techniques on the wall were very low level and wouldn't be of much help to them. Then, they would pay less attention to them. In addition, the temptation of the Pure Yang Stone and other treasures would distract them, making them even less concerned about the sword techniques on the wall.
What was the Great Profound Sun Sword Palace? From its name, it could be seen that it was a sword sect.
A sword sect would naturally be proficient in sword techniques, so it was reasonable for them to set up such a test.
This was something that no one had thought of. No matter how intelligent they were, they wouldn't have thought of this point. Only when they realized it, did they realize that they were one step too late.
After Chu Mu thought of this point, he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart.
Fortunately, he had outstanding perception and memory.
Fortunately, he had superb attainments in the sword dao.
Fortunately, he was walking on the path of creating his own sword technique, which required more accumulation.
No matter what, he was now the first person to enter this place, the first person to see the Boundary Stele, and also the first person to come into contact with the Boundary Stele.
Although he was very happy, Chu Mu didn't dare to get carried away. He didn't know if there would be others who would enter this place. After all, there were many hidden methods. Perhaps someone could break through the Profound Sun Palace's test and enter this place. Therefore, he had to make the best use of his time and refine the Boundary Stele as soon as possible.
When he arrived in front of the Boundary Stele, the Boundary Stele seemed to be defenseless. Chu Mu's Spiritual Energy enveloped it, and the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy was injected into the Boundary Stele to begin the refining process.
At the beginning, Chu Mu discovered that refining the Boundary Stele wasn't easy. It could even be said to be very difficult.
After all, refining the Boundary Stele was equivalent to controlling the entire Profound Sun Realm. This was a small realm, so how could it be so easy to control? It would take some time.
Chu Mu took a deep breath, cleared his mind of distracting thoughts, and started refining the Boundary Stele.
Time slowly passed. Unknowingly, half an hour had passed. In half an hour, Chu Mu had only refined about ten percent of the Boundary Stele.
He could clearly feel that after refining ten percent, it would be harder to refine the Boundary Stele. In other words, it would take more than half an hour to go from ten percent to twenty percent.
At this moment, another figure appeared in the Boundary Stele Hall.
"There's actually someone who entered earlier than me!" Tian Daolin's gaze swept across, and his pupils instantly contracted. He forced out a sharp needle-like light that pierced through the void and landed on Chu Mu, who was refining the Boundary Stele. In an instant, Chu Mu felt a chill all over his body.
In an instant, Chu Mu retracted his hand and gave up on refining the Boundary Stele. He turned around and looked at the source of the gaze. His pupils contracted.
"Sky Race!"
"Human, get out." Tian Daolin's tone was high and mighty, as if an emperor was giving an order.
"Let's decide the victor." Chu Mu said indifferently. He took a step forward and ran like a cheetah towards Heavenly Dao Descends. Heavenly Slash Sword instantly blossomed with a shocking cold light that sliced through the air. With an incomparably fierce stance, it slashed towards Heavenly Dao Descends.
This sword had no name, but it contained the essence of the Sever Word Art.
Because he had comprehended the true meaning of Sever, and because he had condensed his primordial spirit, Chu Mu had completely grasped the four sword moves of the Sever Word Art. What he lacked now was time. He had enough time to create his own Sever Word Art.
Tian Daolin was slightly startled. He immediately revealed a sneer and pointed his finger at Chu Mu. With a slight tremble, he tapped on the void. In an instant, a white starlight flashed across his fingertip. It seemed to spread out a circle of ripples. With a whoosh, a white light shot out.
There were no shocking fluctuations, no terrifying aura, but Chu Mu felt his hair stand on end. That finger, that white ray, contained an incomparably terrifying power.
You're strong, but I'm not weak either.
With a slash of his sword, the Sword Light collided with the white ray. A terrifying power surged. Chu Mu only felt the sword in his hand tremble and almost flew out of his hand. His entire body was also sent flying by a huge force.
The white ray also shattered under Chu Mu's Sword Light.
"To be able to block my finger, you have the qualifications to make me look at you seriously." Tian Daolin said calmly. Then, he waved his hands and shouted, "Heaven Art. Hundred Flows Burial."
Hundred Flows Burial was a very practical move among the Heaven Race's Heaven Arts.
A hundred streams of air appeared and shot towards Chu Mu at an astonishing speed.
Chu Mu, who was sent flying, suddenly turned in midair. Like a swallow returning, he drew a perfect arc. Not only did he avoid Hundred Flows Burial's attack, but he also used an even faster speed to attack Tian Daolin.
Chu Mu was best at close combat. In a long distance battle, he couldn't fully display his strength.
On the contrary, the Heaven Race's Heaven Race were better at long distance. Of course, there were also some close combat Heaven Arts.
With a slash of his sword, over a hundred Sword Light tore through the sky. They were densely packed together like a storm. Accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, they shot towards Tian Daolin with terrifying might.
Chu Mu's cultivation base was at the peak of the Ninth Heavens of Nirvana Realm. Tian Daolin's cultivation base was higher than Chu Mu's. He was at the middle First Heavens of Eternal Realm. In truth, Tian Daolin had broken through from the early First Heavens of Eternal Realm to the middle First Heavens of Eternal Realm in the Ancient Sacred City. A small breakthrough didn't give him many benefits.
At the middle First Heavens of Eternal Realm, Tian Daolin could easily kill an ordinary Third Heavens of Eternal Realm. His strength was terrifying. Even an ordinary late Three Star Saint wouldn't necessarily be his match.
Chu Mu's cultivation base wasn't as high as Tian Daolin's, but he was also extremely strong. Even a Three Star Saint from the Sea Serpent Race had fallen to his sword.
The first battle between the Human Race's monstrous genius and the Heaven Race's monstrous genius had begun.
Over a hundred Sword Light surged with wind and thunder. Tian Daolin's figure was sliced into pieces. Those were just afterimages. His real body had appeared on the other side at some point, surrounded by streams of white energy. Each stream of white energy emitted a faint Holy Qi.
"Heaven Art, Thousand Burial!" Tian Daolin pointed his finger. Over a thousand streams of white energy shot towards Chu Mu. Their power was ten times stronger than Hundred Burial's.
Thousand Burial was an upgrade of Hundred Burial. It was more profound and stronger. It was also the representative of Heaven Arts.
Facing Hundred Flow Burial's pressure was completely different from facing Thousand Flow Burial's pressure. Chu Mu sucked in a breath, and his figure was hit by Thousand Flow Burial's airflow, shattering into pieces. However, Heavenly Dao Lin didn't have any joy of victory. Instead, he frowned.
