A day in the outside world was equivalent to a hundred years in the secret realm.
The time flow was thirty thousand times faster. Therefore, even though Chu Mu and the others felt that a few decades had passed in the secret realm, it was only half a day in the outside world.
For experts like them, if it had been a few decades, they might have left immediately instead of waiting here. However, a mere half a day was nothing to them.
They were even discussing how much stronger each of the ten selected geniuses would be after they left the 100-year secret realm. Who would have the greatest improvement?
"The Young Prince should have the greatest improvement, followed by the True Sword Marquis."
"Not necessarily. I think the True Sword Marquis has the greatest improvement."
Everyone had their own views and opinions.
"Brother, what do you think?" The Azure Wave Emperor had been silent all this while. Now, he spoke to the Hermit King. The moment he spoke, everyone else shut up.
"Zhengting's talent is the best in the dynasty. He's an eternal monster. The secret realm is definitely a great opportunity for him. His strength will definitely increase greatly." King Qing Yinwang said, "I think that when the time comes, he might be able to barely fight against an ordinary Six Star Martial Saint at the peak of the Three Star Martial Saint level."
The Azure Wave Emperor nodded. This was also his opinion.
To those with mediocre talent, the hundred-year secret realm was not very useful. Their improvement would be limited. However, to those with extraordinary talent, it was an extremely rare opportunity. It was enough to cause a huge change in their strength.
Based on their estimation, Huyan Zhengting's improvement from fighting against a Five Star Saint to a Six Star Saint didn't sound like a big difference. However, the difference in strength was more than ten times.
Under the situation where his cultivation base didn't increase significantly, his strength increased by ten times. This kind of improvement was undoubtedly shocking. It was equivalent to laying down a more solid foundation and possessing more shocking potential.
"However, I still feel that the True Sword Marquis's improvement will be even greater." The Hermit King said.
The Azure Wave Emperor didn't say anything. No one knew what he meant. The emperor's thoughts were unpredictable.
…
"I'm already at the peak of the Third Celestial Layer. This isn't a good place to break through. However, my strength has increased by at least five times in the past few decades." Huyan Zhengxiong laughed heartily. "There's still a few decades left. I'll definitely be able to master that secret technique. When that time comes, Chu Mu, I'll let you know that you, the True Sword Marquis, are nothing more than a dog's fart. And Huyan Zhengting, I'll also ruthlessly trample you beneath my feet."
It had to be said that Huyan Zhengxiong was truly a genius. After dozens of years of cultivation, his Cultivation base had only risen to the peak of the Third Heaven. That didn't have much of an effect on his strength. However, he had made progress in other areas, making him five times stronger than before.
A fivefold increase in strength was enough for him to kill his original self.
With the exception of Huyan Zhengxiong, the other geniuses were all progressing rapidly. Their strength had increased exponentially, and they were getting stronger and stronger.
…
The waterfall was still the same waterfall. Even after a few decades, millions of pounds of water still poured down in a crazy manner, bringing with it an incomparably terrifying momentum.
Countless splashes of water spread out in all directions from the huge pool.
Chu Mu suddenly leaped, turning into a ray of light that shot towards the waterfall. In the blink of an eye, he was under the waterfall.
His speed was very, very fast, even faster than the speed of the falling waterfall. Therefore, he quickly entered the waterfall. In an instant, the waterfall seemed to have stopped flowing. In fact, it didn't. It was just a kind of visual deception, because the relative difference in speed was too obvious.
In just an instant, millions of pounds of water poured down, crashing onto Chu Mu's body.
Chu Mu drew his sword.
Both swords moved in a strange manner, one moving forward and one moving backward. Following that, vortexes appeared under the swords.
Each sword had three vortexes. These vortexes were black, like black holes that emitted heart-palpitating fluctuations.
Under the six black vortexes, the falling waterfall didn't hit Chu Mu. Instead, it all poured into the six vortexes.
The six black vortexes only lasted for three breaths of time before collapsing. Chu Mu took advantage of that moment to quickly retreat, escaping the attack of the waterfall.
"Not bad, the duration has increased by one breath. However, it's still not perfect," Chu Mu thought to himself.
This move was a defensive sword move that he had created himself. It was a defensive sword move that he had created after combining the essence of the Acalanatha Sword Move and the Thousand Willow Sword Move. After several decades of hard work, he had continuously improved his accumulation and comprehension of sword techniques before creating this defensive sword move.
Chu Mu named this defensive sword move the Six Daos Sword Move.
However, this defensive sword move wasn't perfect. This was because Chu Mu discovered that this sword move could be even stronger as he continued to perfect it.
Although he didn't deliberately cultivate the Divine Wilderness Sword Origin, Chu Mu's cultivation was no longer at the early stage of the First Sky of the Aeon. He had just entered the late stage. This was under the condition that he didn't take the initiative to cultivate. If he had spent most of the time cultivating the Sword Origin, his cultivation would probably be at the mid-stage of the Second Sky of the Aeon.
After a few decades, his primordial spirit was still stuck at the peak of the third level. It was as if it had fallen into a bottleneck. Chu Mu wasn't in a hurry, nor did he deliberately force it. He would occasionally cultivate the Hanging Moon Secret Technique and release the Soul Splitting Wheel to exhaust his primordial spirit.
Therefore, even though he hadn't broken through, Chu Mu's primordial spirit was becoming more and more solid and condensed. There was a faint trace of bronze in the black luster around his primordial spirit.
"It seems like my primordial spirit can't break through here. I don't need to deliberately cultivate my cultivation either." Chu Mu stood by the pool and looked at the falling waterfall. He secretly thought about the next few decades of cultivation. "Next, I'll continue to comprehend the Sword Universe and further perfect the three sword moves I created. In addition, I'll need to cultivate a new sword move."
Cultivating a new sword move naturally required mastering other attacking methods.
Currently, the Cloud Piercing Sword Move was stabbing, the Dao Beheading Sword Move was slashing, and the Six Daos Sword Move was defending. Chu Mu felt that he needed a long-range attacking sword move. This way, he would be more flexible in battle.
There were a total of three long-range attacking sword moves that he had comprehended in the Forest of Ten Thousand Sword Steles.
The first move was called the Storm Sword Move. It was a very simple name. Once the sword was out, a terrifying sword qi would immediately form a storm in front of it. It was crazily strangling and its power was astonishing. The length of the distance was completely controlled by the user and was closely related to the user's own ability.
The second move was called the One Line Sky Sword Move. When the sword was out, all the power would condense into a line. It was like the line that connected the sky and the water. It stretched endlessly horizontally and was difficult to dodge. It had a terrifying cutting power.
The third move was called the Sky Cutting Sword Move. It didn't have a large range like the Storm Sword Move, nor did it stretch endlessly horizontally like the One Line Sky. It was just a sword light, a sword light that was extremely condensed. The sword light was a whole, rotating at high speed and constantly cutting. After it was shot out and hit the target, it would produce a terrifying cutting power.
Before he started cultivating, Chu Mu first did a series of analysis.
These three long-range attacking sword moves, or sword qi attacking sword moves, each had its own characteristics.
The Storm Sword Style was good at AOE attacks. It covered a certain area and destroyed everything within the area. The Single Line Sky Sword Style was good at AOE attacks, but it could also be a single target attack. This was because when the sword light passed by, it would extend infinitely horizontally. It was as if the sky and water were one. The last Sky Sword Style was purely a single target attack.
Among them, the Storm Sword Move's direct killing power should be the weakest. The One Line Sky Sword Move's killing power was in the middle and the Sky Cutting Sword Move's killing power was the strongest.
Chu Mu didn't cultivate it directly. The reason he wanted to cultivate these three sword moves, other than mastering the sword qi attack, was mainly to create a sword qi attacking sword move that was suitable for himself.
And he had never been good at sword qi attacking and didn't have much accumulation. Therefore, he could only start from these three sword moves and master their essence.
Like the other sword moves, based on the True Meaning of Stab, True Meaning of Slash, and True Meaning of Defense, they all made the sword move have extraordinary power. Then, what about this sword qi attacking sword move?
What kind of True Meaning was supporting it?
Chu Mu comprehended these three sword moves and also the Sword Universe. The two reflected each other.
As time passed, Chu Mu almost fully comprehended the three sword qi attacking sword moves. At the same time, he also comprehended a new True Meaning after combining it with the Sword Universe. It was a True Meaning that was suitable for sword qi attacking. It was called the True Meaning of Sword Qi.
Whether it was the True Meaning of Stab, True Meaning of Slash, or True Meaning of Sword Defense, they were only suitable for close combat sword moves. The sword qi attacking sword moves belonged to the long-range attacking sword moves. Only the True Meaning of Sword Qi was suitable.
After setting his goal, Chu Mu immediately started cultivating.
The first move was the Storm Sword Move.
Because he had already comprehended it, it wasn't difficult to cultivate it. Soon, he was familiar with it.
With a swing of his sword, a sword qi shot out and exploded dozens of meters away. It turned into countless sword qi and rotated at a high speed with an invisible center. The incomparably sharp sword qi crazily cut, forming a storm with a diameter of more than ten meters. The storm seemed to be able to destroy everything. It twisted crazily, wanting to tear and shatter everything in it.
Before the storm disappeared, Chu Mu swung his sword again. After the sword qi shot out, it exploded again, turning into countless sword qi that scattered and rotated again, forming a storm.
Sword qi continued to shoot out. The storm with a diameter of more than ten meters appeared one after another and disappeared one after another.
Under the diligent cultivation, time flew.
