"What kind of monster is that?"
"What a terrifying monster."
All sorts of exclamations could be heard from the various towers. Everyone was shocked. Just like Chu Mu, they had also encountered a monster.
To gain something, one had to pay a price.
The towers and palaces that they had encountered in the past were all damaged. Even if they weren't damaged, they wouldn't encounter any danger.
Right now, they were at the center of the Ancient Sacred City. Here, there were treasures everywhere. There were countless pagodas and each of them represented a fortune. Maybe on the way to the center, there would be some treasures that were comparable to the pagodas in the center, but there were very few of them.
For example, the Puppet Underground Palace that Chu Mu and the others had entered and the Seven-colored Ring Primordial Spirit Defense Secret Technique that they had obtained along the way were not inferior to the opportunities in the towers in the center of the Ancient Sacred City.
Chu Mu also didn't understand why there weren't any outside. In the towers in the center, if one wanted to obtain treasures, they had to face strong enemies. Perhaps, this was a trap set by the ancient people. Only by defeating strong enemies could one obtain the treasures.
Gu Luankong and the other two had also broken through the defensive power of the towers. When they entered the towers, they also encountered strong enemies.
Fortunately, they were all equipped with heavenly puppets. They were strong enough to fight against the enemies.
Intense battles were taking place in every tower.
However, some of the battles in the towers ended as soon as they started. This was because those who entered the towers were all Nine Star Saints.
The defensive power of the 30-meter tower was equivalent to that of a Seven Star Saint. The guardian of the tower was at the peak of a Seven Star Saint. Compared to an Eight Star Saint or a Nine Star Saint, the difference was obvious.
After killing the guardians and obtaining the treasures, these experts left the towers and went to the other towers.
Chu Mu was still in an intense battle with the black werewolf monster.
From the beginning of the battle, dozens of breaths had passed. Every breath was extremely dangerous. During this period, Chu Mu's heavenly puppet was scratched by the black werewolf's claws. Sparks flew. Although it wasn't torn apart, it was left with three claw marks. Fortunately, it wasn't deep and the heavenly puppet could recover slowly.
In the following battles, Chu Mu became even more cautious. His body movement and footwork improved, and his sword qi shadow became even more powerful.
The black werewolf's defense was extremely strong. Ordinary attacks simply couldn't break it. Chu Mu had no choice but to use his sword move.
The sword style brought about a threat to the black werewolf. This thing was incomparably savage, but it seemed to possess intelligence that wasn't simple. It didn't clash head on with Chu Mu. Moreover, its battle technique was astonishing, as if it was born for battle and slaughter.
After fighting with the black werewolf, Chu Mu's battle experience also increased. This was the first time he had encountered such a powerful monster.
Of course, if Chu Mu had the strength of an eight-star Saint, it wouldn't be difficult for him to kill this black werewolf. After all, under the absolute disparity in strength, techniques would be infinitely weakened.
Chu Mu was immersed in his battle with the black werewolf. For the time being, he couldn't do anything to the black werewolf. Similarly, the black werewolf couldn't do anything to Chu Mu. It was reduced to being Chu Mu's sparring partner, improving his body movement and sword skills.
At this time, a ray of light flew over from the distance. That Sword Light was incomparably cold, causing Chu Mu's heart to tremble. His hair stood on end, and he subconsciously used his sword qi shadow to dodge to the side.
This Sword Light's main target wasn't Chu Mu, but the black werewolf.
The black werewolf had an extremely high perception of danger. It immediately dodged, but it was still a step too late. That cold Sword Light's speed was extremely fast, and it slashed through the black werewolf with terrifying power.
Just as the black werewolf was killed, Chu Mu made a prompt decision and quickly rushed out of the tower far away. Only then did his killing intent fade.
Without looking back, Chu Mu erupted with all his speed and rushed to the other towers.
Needless to say, the black werewolf's death meant that the treasures within were definitely taken away.
Only when that killing intent completely disappeared did Chu Mu stop. Within the heavenly puppet, his expression was ice-cold.
That black werewolf was an opportunity that belonged to him. And now, that opportunity had been forcibly snatched away by someone else. The person who snatched it was extremely powerful. Although that sword didn't contain any sword intent or sword force, it was extremely terrifying. It was a sword attack from a nine-star Saint.
In other words, the person who killed the black werewolf wasn't a Sword Saint, but a nine-star Saint that cultivated in sword arts.
An eight-star Saint wasn't someone that Chu Mu could contend against, let alone a nine-star Saint.
Fortunately, Chu Mu had made a prompt decision to leave. Otherwise, once the black werewolf died, he might have been killed as well.
Under normal circumstances, it wasn't difficult for a nine-star Saint to kill a seven-star Saint.
Of course, Chu Mu still had a trump card. That was the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal.
So far, he had used up two of the five chances. The remaining three chances were against a nine-star Saint, an unparalleled expert, and Bai Ling, who was suspected to be a Great Emperor or a Holy Emperor.
After entering the Ancient Sacred City, Chu Mu hadn't thought of it. It wasn't that he had forgotten, but he had done it on purpose.
The three chances of using the Sword Sect's Spiritual Seal were his trump cards. They were his greatest trump cards so far. He wanted to enter the Ancient Sacred City to find opportunities and use his own strength to solve problems. That was the only way he could improve himself.
Of course, if he really encountered a danger that he couldn't solve with his current strength, he would have to use it even if he didn't want to.
Just now, Chu Mu had already memorized the aura of that nine-star Saint.
Not only did he snatch the treasures, he even wanted to kill him. This was a grudge that he had to avenge.
However, the strength of a peak seven-star Saint wasn't enough to fight against a nine-star Saint. However, if he gathered Gu Luankong and the other two and set up the Sword Formation of the Four Symbols, they might be able to fight against the nine-star Saint.
With that thought, Chu Mu immediately moved towards a tower. That was Gu Luankong's tower.
Chu Mu was worried that Gu Luankong would encounter the same thing as him. That was why he decided to help Gu Luankong deal with the monster and get the treasures. Then, he would help Yang Zhantian and Lian Hongyun. After getting the treasures, the four of them would work together.
If they worked together, they would be strong. His previous thinking was wrong.
Seeing Chu Mu arrive, Gu Luankong didn't ask why. The two of them worked together to attack.
Gu Luankong's opponent wasn't a werewolf. However, it was also a ferocious looking monster. It exuded a strong evil aura that made one's heart tremble.
Originally, Gu Luankong was fighting the black monster to a draw. However, after Chu Mu joined the battle, the black monster was suppressed and Gu Luankong gained the upper hand.
Chu Mu's sword was extremely sharp. Moreover, he had the intention of ending the battle as quickly as possible. Every time he used a sword style, its power was extremely powerful and shocking.
Dao Cutter Sword Move!
Chu Mu realized that the black monster didn't seem to be affected by the Dao Cutter Sword Move.
However, the Dao Cutter Sword Move was still very powerful.
The sword of Gu Luankong's Heavenly Puppet was also made of a special material. It had shocking toughness and sharpness.
Chaotic Space Ten Moves!
Cloud Piercing Sword Move!
With the two of them working together, the black monster was severely injured. Then, they crossed their Sword Light and killed the monster.
The black monster disappeared immediately. In mid-air, there was a black pearl that was spinning.
The pearl exuded a strong dark aura. It was very shocking.
"It's yours." Chu Mu said.
Gu Luankong didn't say anything. He just kept the black pearl.
The two of them left quickly and went to another tower nearby. Lian Hongyun was fighting an intense battle with a monster.
Lian Hongyun was slightly weaker than Gu Luankong. Therefore, she could only fight to a draw with the monster. She was at a slight disadvantage. If she was at a slight disadvantage, it was enough to show how powerful the monster was. If it was another Seven Star Saint, they might not be able to get the treasure. Instead, they might be killed by the monster.
Chu Mu and Gu Luankong joined the battle. The three of them surrounded the monster. The monster was at a disadvantage. After a few moves, it was hit by Chu Mu's two swords. It was immediately injured. Gu Luankong's sword also hit the monster. Lian Hongyun used her ultimate move to injure the monster.
After a few moves, the monster was killed by the three of them. The monster disappeared. The treasure it left was a black bracelet. It wasn't big, but it gave people a heavy feeling.
This bracelet naturally belonged to Lian Hongyun.
She kept it without checking what it was. The three of them left the tower immediately. When they were about to go to Yang Zhantian's tower, they realized that Yang Zhantian was already rushing towards them.
"Old Yang, did you kill the monster by yourself?" Lian Hongyun asked when she saw him.
Chu Mu and Gu Luankong also looked at him. If Yang Zhantian killed the monster by himself, it would mean that the monster was weak. However, based on their experience, it didn't seem to be the case. Could it be that Yang Zhantian was stronger?
Even if Yang Zhantian was stronger, he couldn't be more powerful than a Seven Star Saint. When he controlled the Heavenly Puppet, its power was only at the peak of Seven Star Saint.
How could Yang Zhantian, who was at the peak of Seven Star Saint, kill such a monster by himself? Even Chu Mu wouldn't be able to kill it that easily.
"No, it was taken by an Eight Star Saint." Yang Zhantian's voice was filled with anger. His face couldn't be seen, but it was obvious that he was furious.
"Eight star saint rank … do you remember his aura?" Chu Mu's voice carried a sliver of coldness.
"Yes," Yang Zhantian said.
"Good. There was a Nine Star Saint who tried to snatch it. If I didn't retreat immediately, I would have been attacked too." Chu Mu said, "An Eight Star Saint and a Nine Star Saint. Now, the four of us will move together. We can set up a formation at any time. If we encounter any Eight Star Saint or Nine Star Saint, we will kill them without mercy."
"Okay," Yang Zhantian said immediately.
"They deserve to die," Lian Hongyun shouted.
Gu Luankong nodded.
"Let's go." Chu Mu didn't say anything else. He led Gu Luankong and the other two and rushed towards a tower that still had some protective energy.
With the four of them working together, they quickly broke through the protective energy of the tower and entered the tower.
The tower was only thirty meters tall, and the monster's strength was only at the peak of the Seven-star Martial Saint level. Under the joint attack of the four of them, it only took them three breaths to slash it seven to eight times and kill it directly.
