It was a simple battle, but it held extraordinary significance. At the very least, the Royal Sword sect, Sword Gazing sect, and Star Sword sect would become vassals and branches of the True Sword sect. It was equivalent to the True Sword sect increasing in strength.
Chu Mu gathered the elders and had them discuss how best to use the three sects to strengthen the True Sword sect.
Right now, the True Sword sect belonged to the main sect, while the three sects belonged to the branches. The resources of the branches should be tilted towards the main sect.
Although the elders were not powerful enough to be of much use against the powerful enemies of the sect, they were all experienced in dealing with the affairs of the sect. They shared some of Chu Mu's burdens with him, so he did not have to think too much and had more time to cultivate.
The outside world still did not know the outcome of this battle. Unknowingly, the True Sword sect had become even more powerful.
It would take close to a month to travel from the True Sword sect to the three sects of the Cloud Region, and a round trip would take close to two months. Including the time it would take for the grand elder and Xia Zhenkong to take over the three sects, it would probably take even longer. He would just wait here for the good news and hope that nothing untoward happened. Otherwise, the three sects would all be destroyed.
Perhaps they really were disciples of the True God Sword sect that had survived, but whether they had truly survived on a mission or had escaped before the battle was unknown.
Although Chu Mu had obtained the legacy of the Sword Universe and the Forest of Ten Thousand Swords, strictly speaking, he was a successor and not a disciple. Even if he was a disciple, he was a generation removed from the sect masters of the three sects. There was no friendship between them at all.
What Chu Mu needed to do was develop the True Sword sect as quickly as possible while its foundation was stable and complete senior Bai Ling's instructions.
…
Three Soul-splitting Wheels hovered around his early class four soul spirit, slowly revolving around it.
One of the Soul Splitting Wheels had a deeper color and looked more textured. Its edges were thinner and sharper. It was the only early-stage Class 4 Soul Splitting Wheel in the collection.
The other two Wheels were only at the peak of class three.
It was even harder to cultivate the fourth level of the Wheel of Soul Rending.
Back then, Chu Mu had spent a few years of time in the hundred year secret book to successfully refine the Soul Splitting Wheel from the second rank to the peak of the third rank. To completely refine the Soul Splitting Wheel from the peak of the third rank to the beginning of the fourth rank, the amount of time needed wouldn't be any less than before. Finally, he still had to split the Soul Splitting Wheel, which would take even more time.
Chu Mu cultivated continuously, and with the help of the moonlight, he increased the refining efficiency by at least 30%. It took him two months to refine one of the Soul Cracking Wheels from the peak of Level 3 to the early stage of Level 4.
Now, Chu Mu planned to refine the other two Peak Rank 3 Soul Splitting Wheels to Rank 4.
At that time, as long as the opponent had a Level 4 soul spirit, as long as they did not cultivate a Level 4 soul spirit defense secret technique, they would not be able to survive under his three Soul Splitting Wheels.
Of course, if it was possible, Chu Mu would continue to refine it. Once he reached the peak of the fourth rank, he would split one of the Splitting Soul Wheels and continue to refine it. However, that would require even more time because he couldn't refine it all the time. Only when there was moonlight would the effects be better.
…
In the Boundary Monument Hall of the Profound Yang Sword Hall, two figures were flying quickly, crossing each other time and time again. One Sword Light was bright, while the other Sword Light was obscure.
The bright Sword Light had a variety of styles. Sometimes it was rapid, like a storm, sometimes it was violent, like a thunderbolt flame, sometimes it was gentle, like a breeze falling leaves, and sometimes it was continuous, like a gurgling stream.
The obscure Sword Light only had one style, and that was strange and changeable.
The obscure sword-light was like a ribbon that twined around the sword, creating a viscous force that caused the space under the sword to form a unique force. It was a force that was filled with a viscous force that clearly hindered the other party's movements.
And under that endless sticky force, the obscure Sword Light was like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity to move. It carried an astonishing killing intent, and every sword could be fatal.
The two figures fell into an extremely intense battle, but both sides did not use much strength. They only used a little of the same level of strength to display their respective sword techniques.
The bright Sword Light gradually strengthened and became more and more mysterious. The obscure Sword Light, which was originally somewhat rough, was also constantly perfected.
The two sides fought fiercely for another half an hour before stopping and separating. One of them was Chu Mu, and the other was a heavenly puppet, the heavenly puppet that Chu Mu named Chu Cangfeng.
The Illusory Heavenly Puppet Chu Cangfeng, under the 18 Illusory Crystals and Dacheng's spiritual wisdom, had finally derived its own cultivation method and sword technique after a considerable period of time.
The newly derived techniques and sword techniques were rather rough, so Chu Mu would fight with Chu Cangfeng to hone Chu Cangfeng's techniques and sword techniques. This would allow Chu Cangfeng's techniques and sword techniques to be perfected quickly, and allow Chu Cangfeng to quickly grasp its own strength.
Once Chu Cangfeng completely mastered its own strength and perfected its cultivation method and sword technique to a certain extent, it would become a true Seven Star Saint expert. At that time, the true high-end strength would be further enhanced.
The more powerful the high-end strength was, the more stable the sect would be. Naturally, it would also attract more geniuses to join and strengthen the ranks of the disciples.
The other two heavenly puppets were just beginning to develop spiritual wisdom, and it would take a long time for them to become complete. They also lacked the corresponding energy crystals to activate and transform into their own strength, so they were not useful for the time being.
Every day, in addition to cultivation, Chu Mu would fight with Chu Cangfeng. As Chu Cangfeng's sword technique was perfected, it was more effective than Chu Mu's solo cultivation of sword technique.
Moreover, Chu Mu would also choose a few sword techniques related to the power of illusion from the sword techniques that he had comprehended in the Forest of Thousand Sword Steles, and teach them to Chu Cangfeng to enrich his knowledge of sword techniques, and also to help improve his own sword technique.
Under continuous improvement, Chu Cangfeng also derived movement techniques and footwork, which were closely related to the power of illusion.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. A guest came to the True Sword Sect, a guest that Chu Mu did not expect.
In the main hall of the sect.
"True Sword Marquis, I said that we would meet again." In the main hall of the sect, the visitor squeezed out a smile and said to Chu Mu. However, this person rarely smiled, so the smile he squeezed out looked a little stiff.
This person was Huyan Zhengting, who had fought with Chu Mu before.
Chu Mu would never have thought that Huyan Zhengting would come to the True Sword Sect to look for him.
"Young Lord, you are here as an honored guest." Chu Mu said, "I will arrange for an elder to accompany you."
Chu Mu thought that Huyan Zhengting had come to the True Sword Sect to travel, and he could not personally accompany Huyan Zhengting, so he said this.
"Sect Master Chu." Huyan Zhengting changed the way he addressed Chu Mu, "I am not here to play, but to join the True Sword Sect and become a member of the True Sword Sect."
Hearing Huyan Zhengting's words, Chu Mu was stunned.
"Could it be that there are some conditions to join the True Sword Sect?" Huyan Zhengting asked again. He was very direct, "Sect Master, please tell me. I will definitely do it."
His resolute tone revealed his determination to join the True Sword Sect.
"With your talent, you are naturally qualified to become a member of the True Sword Sect." Chu Mu said. Huyan Zhengting's fervent tone and sincere expression showed that he really wanted to become a member of the True Sword Sect from the bottom of his heart.
Huyan Zhengting was a four-star early stage Saint, but he was also an eternal monstrous genius. His powerful strength allowed him to kill ordinary six-star early stage Saints.
Perhaps Huyan Zhengting's current strength was not enough for him to move unhindered, but he already had the qualifications to do so. One day, when he reached the seven-star Saint level, his strength would definitely be comparable to a peak eight-star Saint.
"Then, I will be a disciple of the True Sword Sect from now on?" Huyan Zhengting's tone was filled with excitement.
Huyan Zhengting had long known that the True Sword Sect was a sword cultivation sect. However, he was not moved at all because as far as he knew, the True Sword Sect was not strong enough to attract him. However, after meeting Chu Mu, the Sect Master of the True Sword Sect, he personally fought with Chu Mu. Not only was he unable to defeat Chu Mu, but he was also defeated by Chu Mu. Chu Mu even pointed out the shortcomings of his sword skills.
Huyan Zhengting was grateful, but also shocked because Chu Mu's cultivation was far inferior to his.
The main reason was that he wanted to join the True Sword Sect.
"From today onwards, you are a member of the True Sword Sect. However, the disciples of the True Sword Sect are only below the Saint level. Those who are at the Saint level can either become elders or make other arrangements," Chu Mu said, "First, open up a cave on the Sect Master's Peak."
"Yes, Sect Master." Huyan Zhengting very well integrated into his role.
Chu Mu summoned an elder and explained Huyan Zhengting's identity and joining the True Sword Sect to the elder. Then, he asked the elder to bring Huyan Zhengting down to open up his own cave.
As for the Profound Yang Sword Token to enter the Profound Yang Sword Realm, Chu Mu would not give it to him yet.
If a sect had enough geniuses, their future would be limitless. Of course, the more geniuses there were, the more resources they would need to consume. After all, the resources a genius needed to cultivate were not something an ordinary cultivator could compare to.
Currently, in the True Sword Sect, Chu Mu was the most powerful genius. He was an Eternal level monster, and one of the most outstanding among the monsters.
Now, there was an additional Huyan Zhengting, who was also an Eternal level monster. Although he was a normal level monster, it would still raise the level of the True Sword Sect's geniuses. Furthermore, Chu Mu had always been considering the future True Sword Sect. He would not always be the Sect Master. He would always need someone trustworthy and capable to be the Sect Master.
Huyan Zhengting seemed to be a candidate.
