The vice leader of the Ancient God Sword Alliance was called Xing Liang. He was at the early Third Sky of the Ancient God Sword Alliance. Among the people present, his cultivation was the highest, followed by the other three who were at the peak Second Sky of the Ancient God Sword Alliance.
Before entering the Deep Blue World, Xing Liang's cultivation base was already at the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Nirvana Realm. After entering the Deep Blue World, he had a fortuitous encounter and successfully broke through to the Eternal Realm. Not only did his cultivation base break through, but his aptitude also improved.
At first, Xing Liang was just sizing up Chu Mu and the other three. After seeing their cultivation levels, he became more enthusiastic.
One by one, he introduced Chu Mu and the other three to the alliance members present so they could get to know each other.
They were all swordsmen from the Ancient God World. Although they didn't know each other before, they were still from the same hometown. After the introductions, they quickly became familiar with each other.
"The Ancient God Sword Alliance was established by the alliance leader and me." Xing Liang said, "The alliance leader is called Yang Fan. His cultivation level is the same as mine, but he is stronger than me. After entering the Deep Blue World, we had a fortuitous encounter and broke through to the Ancient God Realm. After that, our cultivation levels increased rapidly. However, we didn't forget our purpose of coming here. After many investigations, we finally confirmed that the World Spirit is related to a secret."
Xing Liang didn't directly tell them what the secret was. Instead, he looked at Chu Mu and the other three and asked, "I wonder if the four of you have discovered any secrets after being here for so many years?"
This was a very straightforward question.
"The Deep Blue God Pearl." Chu Mu said calmly.
"That's right. The World Spirit is related to the Deep Blue God Pearl. As long as we can find all the Deep Blue God Pearls, we can open the center of the world." Xing Liang's eyes lit up and he said with certainty. This made Chu Mu and the other three feel puzzled. Xing Liang seemed to know more about the secret than they did.
"It's a pity." Xing Liang shook his head and sighed, "There are only 18 Deep Blue God Pearls. Until now, we haven't found any. I wonder if the four of you have found anything?"
"Although we know about the Deep Blue God Pearls and have heard of them, we haven't found anything." Chu Mu shook his head and said.
Gu Luankong and the other two also knew that Chu Mu was lying. However, they didn't say anything. Instead, they felt that it was reasonable.
After all, Chu Mu had the Deep Blue Divine Pearl, and one of them was even given to him by them. With their relationship, there was no problem in telling the truth. After all, they were all monstrous geniuses in the top ten of the Heaven Azure Rankings. Each of them had pride in their bones. They weren't petty people, and they didn't want to be petty people. Moreover, the four of them had been through life and death situations together. They could trust each other. They were the kind of people who could entrust their backs to each other.
But the others in the Ancient God Sword League, in the end, were just acquaintances. Although they were all from the Ancient God World, they did not know each other well enough. There was no basis for trust. How could Chu Mu reveal the fact that he had Deep Blue Sacred Pearls, and four of them at that?
Hearing Chu Mu's words, Xing Liang and the others didn't doubt it at all. They felt that it should be true. That sentence was just a test. Since it wasn't true, it wouldn't be mentioned again.
"This time, our League Leader went out to scout for information. It's very likely that it's related to one of the Deep Blue Sacred Pearls." Xing Liang took a deep breath and said seriously, "Now, we just have to wait for our League Leader to come back and see the situation."
Their conversation didn't leak out. Because the surroundings were set up with a very high level of soundproofing seal. In addition, they deliberately lowered their voices and controlled it. Only those within their small range could hear it.
Chu Mu's group of four stayed in the Ancient God Sword League for the time being.
No matter what, this was an organization of people from the same hometown. Moreover, after coming to the Deep Blue World, as long as they were still alive, they seemed to have a good harvest. Everyone's cultivation had increased, and their strength had increased. Moreover, they all had their own channels. It was better than the four of them to complete the mission.
To Chu Mu, it didn't matter to him who found the Spirit of the World and who received the recognition of the Spirit of the World as long as it was a human.
Once the mission was completed, the human sword cultivators of the Ancient God World would enter the Deep Blue World en masse. At that time, an intense battle would be unavoidable. To the Deep Blue World, they were probably invaders.
However, Chu Mu didn't care about this. He was more concerned about his own path.
After completing the mission, where should he go?
Should he return to the Ancient God World?
Or should he stay in the Deep Blue World?
He had considered this question before, but each time, he only thought about it briefly. He didn't think too deeply because he didn't know the answer.
The Ancient God Sword League had five floors. Each floor was very big. Chu Mu's group of four were separated.
According to the rules of the Ancient God Sword League, the levels they lived on were different.
First Heaven of the Eternal Realm lived on the third floor, Second Heaven of the Eternal Realm lived on the fourth floor, and Third Heaven of the Eternal Realm lived on the fifth floor. Chu Mu was at the early Second Heaven of the Eternal Realm, so he was arranged to live on the fourth floor. Gu Luankong, Yang Zhantian, and Lian Hongyun were arranged to live on the third floor.
It didn't matter if they were one floor apart.
…
"Chu Mu, you're number one on the Heavenly Azure Ranking. I heard that your sword technique is exceptional. I wonder what level you've reached. Why don't we have a spar?" Gong Rushan said to Chu Mu, his tone carrying a bit of provocation.
"Back then, if we weren't older, who knows who would have taken the number one spot on the Heaven Azure List?" Yan Zhengkang said.
Back then, the age limit for the Heaven Azure List was below 100 years old. Many geniuses couldn't participate. Naturally, they weren't convinced.
They didn't have a chance before, but now that they were together, they couldn't help but mention it.
However, different people had different attitudes. Although Gong Rushan's tone was provocative, it didn't have any malicious intent. It was purely a challenge. Yan Zhengkang's tone was different. His attitude wasn't as good.
No matter if it was Gong Rushan or Yan Zhengkang, their cultivation was above Chu Mu's. They were at the advanced Second Heaven of the Eternal Realm. When they came to the Deep Blue World, they were at the late Ninth Heaven of the Nirvana Realm.
"Sure." Chu Mu didn't reject Gong Rushan's suggestion.
The Ancient Divine Sword Tower of the Ancient Divine Sword League had five floors. Aside from that, there was also a backyard. It was a very spacious backyard that could be used as a place for league members to practice their swordsmanship. Of course, such a backyard did not have any defensive capabilities. Thus, when practicing their swordsmanship, they would not use too much power and would only practice their swordsmanship.
The news of Chu Mu and Gong Rushan's sword duel spread quickly. Immediately, many alliance members came to watch.
"Back then, he was the number one on the Heaven Azure List. Rumor has it that his sword skills were unparalleled. I wonder how profound they are?"
"I think they should be pretty good. Otherwise, they wouldn't have said that his sword skills were unparalleled."
"I don't think so. The Heaven Azure List has an age limit. Only those below 100 years old can participate. How many years has he been practicing his sword skills? Of course, his sword skills might be pretty good, but that's relative. He was only famous among swordsmen below 100 years old." Yan Zhengkang said again. He really didn't believe that Chu Mu's sword skills were that profound. He felt that his own sword skills were definitely above Chu Mu's.
It was normal for Yan Zhengkang to have such thoughts. After all, his own sword skills were very profound. Within the sect, he was invincible among his peers. Many of the older generation couldn't be compared to him.
This wasn't something that happened overnight. It was accumulated over a long period of time. Therefore, Yan Zhengkang had such confidence in himself.
In fact, the alliance members present were all top geniuses in their respective sects. After coming to the Deep Blue World, they had more or less had some fortuitous encounters. They became stronger and their sword skills became more profound. Therefore, they were very confident in themselves.
However, some of them were overconfident while some of them were still very confident.
Yan Zhengkang's confidence was overconfident.
Gong Rushan drew his sword. With a flick of his wrist, a sword flower bloomed and attacked Chu Mu from all directions. This was a pure sword skill that didn't contain any sword energy.
In a battle of the sword, it was a battle of the subtlety and skill of the sword skill.
The Blazing Brilliance Spiritual Sword appeared in Chu Mu's hand. The sword stabbed out in a straight trajectory. It was like a line between the sky and the sea, as if there was no beginning or end. This was an application of the Skyline Sword Style. Its power couldn't be compared to the real Skyline Sword Style. However, Chu Mu, who had completely grasped the essence of it, could transform it into an ordinary sword skill.
In everyone's eyes, Chu Mu's sword seemed to have turned into a line connecting the sky and the sea. There was no beginning or end. It extended endlessly and there was nowhere it couldn't reach.
The blooming sword flower was shattered by Chu Mu's sword. The endless line of Sword Light arrived in front of Gong Rushan in an instant. There was no way for him to dodge. It went straight between his eyebrows and finally fell between his eyebrows. Gong Rushan felt a chill coming from between his eyebrows.
"I … I lost …" Gong Rushan was a little confused and bitter. He thought his swordsmanship was pretty good, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even withstand one strike from his opponent. Then, he laughed. His real strength lay not in his swordsmanship, but in other aspects. So, it didn't matter if he lost.
"You have some skills." Yan Zhengkang's eyes flashed with a touch of fear, but he said so.
"Good sword skill. Let me have a try." Another person jumped out. Before Chu Mu could answer, he directly slashed at Chu Mu with his sword. Under this sword, it was like an invisible mountain descending, suppressing the earth and bringing great pressure to Chu Mu.
This was a vision of sword skill. From this point of view, this person's sword skill was obviously more profound than Gong Rushan's.
However, this kind of sword skill could only be regarded as good for Chu Mu. He didn't use any other moves. Just like before, he stabbed out with his sword. The line connecting the sky and the sea extended endlessly without beginning or end, breaking mountains and shattering mountains.
"Amazing." This person was much more open-minded than Gong Rushan. After being defeated by Chu Mu, he didn't feel depressed at all. Instead, he laughed.
Since he had drawn his sword and defeated two people, Chu Mu simply looked around and invited, "Who else wants to fight?"
"Good sword skill. Let me have a try." Another person came out with a smile.
