A soft and sharp 'xiu' sound rang out. A pale green figure cut through the sky like a rainbow and flew past. In the blink of an eye, only the back of the figure was left as it swiftly disappeared into the distance. The faint traces left behind in the air slowly dissipated.
Chu Mu had used the Fleeting Gale movement technique to the extreme. His speed had exceeded the limit.
The Fleeting Gale movement technique was originally a high level movement technique, and it was also of the wind attribute. In terms of speed, other than the lightning and light attribute movement techniques, none of the other attributes could compare. In addition, Chu Mu's Wind Concept had broken through and reached 40% completion. His full strength had been integrated into the Fleeting Gale movement technique, causing the speed of the Fleeting Gale movement technique to increase by several times, reaching a height that others could only look up to.
Suddenly, the light green figure stopped and stood straight on the ground like a javelin. Because it stopped too quickly, the inertia caused a vast airflow to rush forward, causing the sand and rocks on the ground to roll and the fallen leaves to swirl in the air. When the airflow collided with the airflow in front of it, there were even bursts of explosive sounds. The sound was shocking.
With the Wind Concept reaching 40% completion, the wind trajectories formed by the air flow around him were even clearer in Chu Mu's perception. This caused Chu Mu to feel extremely refreshed. This kind of experience was truly unprecedented.
Therefore, in addition to testing the strength of the attack, Chu Mu also integrated 40% Wind Concept into the Fleeting Gale movement technique and the Fleeting Gale movement technique.
The Fleeting Gale movement technique and the Fleeting Gale movement technique were both wind attribute movement techniques, but there was an obvious difference. One of them was a mid level movement technique, while the other was a high level movement technique. Moreover, the Fleeting Gale movement technique focused more on agility, displaying the agility of the wind to the extreme. It was suitable for teleportation within a small area, and not suitable for long distance travel. On the other hand, the Fleeting Gale movement technique focused on the speed of the wind, displaying the speed to the extreme as much as possible. Relatively speaking, it was more suitable for long distance travel.
After experimenting, Chu Mu discovered that the Fleeting Gale movement technique under 40% Wind Concept had already reached the standard of a high level movement technique. Moreover, he felt that as long as he spent some time calmly re-calculating the Fleeting Gale movement technique, he would definitely be able to upgrade the Fleeting Gale movement technique to a high level movement technique.
On the other hand, the Gale Shadow movement technique under 40% Wind Concept increased his speed by a few times, and it was swift to the point of being inconceivable.
"Although my cultivation is still at the late tenth stage, my overall strength has obviously increased by a lot. Now, even if I use the simplified form of wind, I won't use up all of my sword energy. Moreover, because of my small success in Concepts, my strength has increased once again. Even if I fight with Zhou Hongyu and the others, I shouldn't be at a disadvantage."
Although Zhou Hongyu and the other Four Prodigies of the Sword Academy were all beginner Qi Transformation Realm swordsmen and had comprehended Intent Realm, Chu Mu deduced that it was impossible for their Intent Realm to reach the Minor Accomplishment Realm.
"The first dagger is in the Space Armlet. Next, we should focus on finding the second and third daggers," Chu Mu said to himself. With Luo Yufeng and Zheng Xiu Ran's strength, they didn't have much of an advantage in the battle for the top 100. Therefore, the probability of snatching a fake sword was very low. Moreover, once they had a dagger, they wouldn't be able to hide the red light on it and would only cause more trouble for themselves.
He wasn't a babysitter, but Luo Yufeng and the others were still good to him. They had a deep relationship with each other, so he would do something within his power. Chu Mu wouldn't refuse.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint blue light flowed in his eyes. Chu Mu looked around and searched carefully, but he didn't find the red light. His figure flashed, and he used the Gale Shadow again to escape into the distance.
…
On the flat ground, there was a one-meter-tall rock surrounded by a group of people.
On the rock, there was a dagger that released a circle of red light. It was so bright that it attracted everyone's attention, making them unable to look away.
They surrounded the rock. No, to be precise, they surrounded the dagger on the rock. From the looks of it, there were a total of three groups of people from different sword sects, and they all wanted this dagger.
"This dagger was found by our Flowing Cloud Sword Sect first. It's not your turn to get it. All of you, back off. Otherwise, our daggers won't have eyes." A disciple from the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect coldly shouted, his face unyielding.
"Everyone has a share. Moreover, this dagger hasn't been found by you guys yet. How can you say that it belongs to your Flowing Cloud Sword Sect? I said it belongs to our Hundred Flower Sword Sect. You guys should back off quickly to avoid hurting our relationship." A female disciple from the Hundred Flower Sword Sect said with a smile.
"I think you guys should back off. This dagger has been taken by our Fierce Gale Sword Sect." A male swordsman with a gloomy face said. His gaze was as sharp as a sword, slowly sweeping across the faces of the disciples from the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect and Hundred Flower Sword Sect.
"Seems like you guys are planning to make a move?" The Flowing Cloud Sword Sect disciple's face sank. He gripped the hilt of his sword, and his voice became cold as his aura fluctuated.
"Let's make a move then. Let's see who's stronger and who'll get the dagger." The Fierce Gale Sword Sect disciple didn't back down and said with a stern voice.
"If that's the case, then our Hundred Flower Sword Sect will back off." The female disciple from the Hundred Flower Sword Sect rolled her eyes and suddenly laughed. With a wave of her hand, the group of people retreated a dozen meters. It seemed like they really wanted to back off.
The disciples from the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect and Fierce Gale Sword Sect who were originally at loggerheads suddenly stopped fighting. They looked at the people from the Hundred Flower Sword Sect together, their eyes filled with vigilance and traces of disdain.
"Your Hundred Flower Sword Sect really has a good plan. You waited for us to fight, then took the opportunity to snatch the dagger away. Dream on." The Flowing Cloud Sword Sect disciple coldly snorted.
Although the Fierce Gale Sword Sect disciple didn't say anything, their expressions and eyes showed that.
"Hehe, don't worry. We won't take the opportunity to make a move." After her plan was seen through, the female disciple from the Hundred Flower Sword Sect smiled embarrassedly. However, the rolling of her eyes showed that she didn't feel embarrassed at all.
The three sides were once again in a stalemate. Just when they felt that this stalemate wasn't going to work, a light blue figure flew over from the distance like a gust of wind.
With a 'xiu' sound, it suddenly approached. Everyone had just noticed it, but before they could react, it swept past the rock and blew into the distance like a gust of wind.
After two breaths of time, the disciples from the three middle grade sword sects finally reacted.
"Damn it! That person snatched the dagger away."
"Bastard! How dare he snatch the dagger away from under our noses!"
"Chase him! Catch him! I want him to know the consequences of snatching the dagger away in public!"
Furious roars rang out as the disciples of the Wanderingcloud Sword Sect and Penetrating Gale Sword Sect flew into a rage. They roared again and again as they utilized their movement techniques to swiftly dash forward. They swore to catch up to the figure that had seized the short sword and viciously punish him.
"Senior Sister, let's chase him too." A disciple from the Hundred Flower Sword Sect hurriedly said, "Otherwise, the dagger will become someone else's."
"No, we don't want this dagger." The female disciple said, "Don't ask why. Think about it. With his speed, do you think we can catch up?"
Suddenly, the group of people became silent. Thinking back to that speed, it was as fast as lightning. It was impossible to catch up. They could only helplessly give up, but they were secretly guessing who that person was. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
