There were at least several thousand towers, and there were also more than a thousand high-level Saint-level experts here. There were humans, oceanids, celestials, and so on.
Thousands of pagodas might sound like a lot, but compared to the thousands of high-level Saint-level experts from the various races, it was actually nothing.
Those Nine Star Martial Saints could easily take the treasures from the thirty-meter-tall towers. While the Seven Star Martial Saints were still fighting with the guardians of the towers, the Nine Star Martial Saints had already plundered a few towers.
This kind of situation brought forth competition. An intense competition began.
Chu Mu and the other three joined forces and rushed towards a forty-meter-tall tower. Beside them, an Eight Star Martial Saint also rushed over.
"Scram!" That Eight Star Martial Saint was very domineering.
"You are the one who needs to scram." Chu Mu shouted. The four of them were very coordinated. They stood in their positions and formed the True Mysterious Four Divisions Sword Formation. They raised their swords and slashed out.
Dazzling sword-light streaked across the sky, as though it was cutting through the void as it charged towards the Eight-Star Martial Saint.
The Eight Star Martial Saint's expression changed. His eyes were filled with shock and fear. After a pause, he retreated at full speed.
After forcing back the eight star Saint rank expert with a single slash, Chu Mu's sword spun and the enormous sword light he slashed out also spun and turned, slashing towards the tower's defensive energy.
With a loud boom, the defensive barrier of the tower stirred up layers of ripples. They spread out and trembled slightly.
The Eight Star Martial Saint that was forced to retreat didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stood in the distance and watched. He didn't want to give up and wanted to attack again.
Chu Mu didn't bother. As long as the Eight Star Martial Saint didn't come close, he couldn't be bothered to deal with him.
Gu Luankong, Yang Zhantian, and Lian Hongyun all attacked with their swords at the same time. Their swords were rhythmically attacking the same spot on the tower's defense. Soon, the tower's defense was broken through.
The four of them seemed to be one. They leaped up and rushed more than thirty meters into the tower.
As soon as they entered the tower, they were attacked.
The attacker was a monster. Its entire body was black, and there seemed to be a faint flame burning on its body. Its head was as ferocious as a demon's, and it had a single horn. Its thick arms bulged with muscles that contained an incomparably terrifying power.
One could tell at a glance that this was a monster with terrifying power.
The monster punched out, forcefully creating a vacuum. It contained astonishing power that could shatter everything.
Chu Mu slashed out with his sword, and the tyrannical edge of the sword split apart the fist energy and rushed towards the monster.
Borrowing the force of the recoil, he turned it into his own and slashed out again. Under the power of the earthquake, the sword vibrated at a high frequency, cutting through the vacuum and slashing at the monster's body again.
As the Sword Array of the Four Divisions rotated, the four of them launched attacks without pause.
This monster was extremely powerful, but its speed was relatively slow. It was completely unable to dodge the attacks of Chu Mu and the other three.
Dao Cutter Sword Style!
The Dao Cutter Sword Style contained the spiritual impact of the God Cutter Sword Style, the unfolding of the void of the Void Cutter Sword Style, the softness of the Flow Cutter Sword Style, and the toughness of the Extreme Cutter Sword Style.
This eight-star Saint-level monster only lasted for a short while before it died under the swords of Chu Mu and the others.
The monster disappeared, leaving only one thing behind. It was a pair of black gloves. It looked like it was made of some kind of black metal, and it exuded powerful energy waves.
This pair of gloves belonged to Chu Mu. Chu Mu put the black metal gloves into his pocket space.
He quickly left the tower and rushed to the other towers.
At this time, most of the towers had been opened, and there were only a few towers left that still had their defenses intact.
After choosing a tower that was fifty meters tall, Chu Mu and the other three burst out at full speed and rushed over. Their speed had reached the level of a nine-star Saint-level.
The fifty-meter towers were the least in number, with less than a hundred of them. They appeared to be more precious.
Among the thousands of high-level Saint-level powerhouses from various clans, there were less than a hundred nine-star Saint-level powerhouses.
In theory, there was no need to fight for a tower that was fifty meters tall. However, that was not the case.
A tower that was thirty meters tall was equivalent to a seven-star Saint-level, a tower that was forty meters tall was equivalent to an eight-star Saint-level, and a tower that was fifty meters tall was equivalent to a nine-star Saint-level.
In other words, without the strength of a nine-star Saint-level, it was impossible to break through the invisible defense of a tower that was fifty meters tall.
Although that was the case, the treasures in the tower were extremely attractive. Those seven-star and eight-star Saint-level powerhouses did not want to give up at all.
There were thousands of high-level Saint-level powerhouses, and an even more intense fight broke out.
The tower that Chu Mu and the other three had chosen was quickly surrounded by a group of seven-star and eight-star Saint-level powerhouses.
"That's him." Yang Zhantian suddenly said, pointing at an eight-star Saint-level.
Chu Mu and the other two immediately understood that Yang Zhantian was talking about the person who had snatched their treasures.
"Kill!" There was no need to say anything else.
The four of them moved quickly and appeared beside the eight-star Saint-level powerhouse. They attacked with their swords.
A sword pierced through the clouds. Under the surging clouds, everyone felt as if they were surrounded by clouds that appeared out of nowhere. Their movements seemed to be affected and slowed down.
The eight-star Saint-level powerhouse shuddered as a chill surged in his body. He was so shocked that he did not even turn his head. He quickly executed his movement technique and turned into a series of afterimages. It was hard to tell which one was real and which one was fake.
However, his real body had already been locked onto by Chu Mu. Now, it was just a futile struggle.
A sword pierced through the clouds and mercilessly killed him.
It pierced through his forehead and even his Primordial Spirit was crushed. He did not make a sound. He only widened his eyes and slowly fell to the ground.
Someone beside him reacted quickly and immediately reached out to grab the interspatial ring on his opponent's finger. However, what greeted him was a cold Sword Light that was filled with killing intent.
Making a prompt decision, this person unhesitatingly retracted his hand and recklessly burst forth with full speed. He even burned his essence blood and retreated at an unimaginable speed. He flew far away, afraid of being killed by Chu Mu and the others.
He was too powerful. He killed an eight-star Saint-level powerhouse with a single sword strike. Another sword strike scared the other eight-star Saint-level powerhouse so much that he had to burn his blood essence to escape. The surrounding people were stunned.
With a flick of the sword, the interspatial ring fell into Chu Mu's hand and was kept by him.
The silver eyes of the Heavenly Puppet of Desolation slowly scanned the surroundings. They swept past the faces of the seven-star Saint-level and eight-star Saint-level powerhouses. That cold and merciless gaze caused their expressions to change drastically.
"Scram!" A cold voice came from the Heavenly Puppet. Coupled with those cold and merciless silver eyes, it made one shudder.
"Don't be afraid. Let's work together," someone shouted. Just as he finished speaking, a cold silver Sword Light pierced through the sky and struck. With a slash, the two were cut into two.
A mere seven-star Saint-level powerhouse dared to be so arrogant.
Such strength and ferocity caused the other seven-star and eight-star Saint-level powerhouses to retreat.
They were not as united as a single piece of metal. It was unrealistic to join forces. If they joined forces and broke through the defensive power of the tower, how would the treasures be distributed?
Since they were no match, they could only retreat.
The fifty-meter tower was too difficult for the seven-star and eight-star Saint-level powerhouses. The thirty-meter and forty-meter towers had already been exploited, and the treasures had all been taken away.
After retreating, the eight-star Saint-level powerhouses suddenly targeted the seven-star Saint-level powerhouses.
Since they could not get the treasures from the tower, they could only target the others. The seven-star Saint-level powerhouses were a good target.
The seven-star Saint-level powerhouses seemed to have realized this as well. Without any hesitation, they immediately fled at full speed. No one wanted to be targeted and become prey.
The eight-star Saint-level powerhouses naturally would not let them escape. A hunt began.
No one came to fight for the tower on Chu Mu's side.
The invisible defensive power of the tower was very strong. Only Chu Mu's dual swords could shake it.
The roars of dragons and tigers, the Vermilion Bird and the Black Tortoise. The spirits of the four beasts gathered. With the support of the four beasts, Chu Mu's strength increased greatly.
With the dual swords, he performed sword moves. He wanted to break through the tower's defensive power in the shortest time possible and get the treasures as soon as possible. Otherwise, if someone did this first, they would probably attack the other towers.
Time was everything. Every second was the way to go.
One could imagine that the treasures in the fifty-meter tower would definitely be better than those in the other two towers.
This forest of towers was like a benefit for cultivators who entered the heart of the Eternal Sacred City.
Of course, one had to be alive to get the benefits. If one was not strong enough, death would be the only outcome.
The ripples continued to spread. Under Chu Mu's sword, the defensive power was constantly being weakened.
Finally, with a pop, the defensive power was broken. Chu Mu and the other three immediately soared into the sky and entered the tower.
They already knew that there was a guardian in the tower. Therefore, the moment they entered the tower, they were already on high alert. However, the strange thing was that they did not encounter any attacks.
"What's going on?" Lian Hongyun was very surprised.
"Be careful," Gu Luankong said.
The interior of the tower was very spacious. There was only a ball of black light floating in the center. It was emitting a shocking energy fluctuation.
In the black light, one could vaguely see something.
The shocking energy fluctuation did not contain any danger. It was obviously a treasure.
"Is there no guardian?" Yang Zhantian was very surprised.
Everyone did not act immediately. Instead, they were on high alert. However, they did not feel any danger. They spread out their spiritual power and scanned the surroundings. However, they did not find anything.
In order to prevent the other Nine Star Martial Saints from coming to fight for the treasure, Chu Mu and the other three moved. They quickly flew towards the treasure. In a flash, they appeared in front of the treasure and reached out to grab it.
When the Heavenly Puppet controlled by Chu Mu was about to grab the black light, the black light flashed and disappeared. Then, an extremely dangerous aura seemed to appear from the void. Chu Mu and the other three's eyebrows twitched. Without any hesitation, they immediately used all their strength and moved to the side.
