Before leaving, Zheng Li stared at Chu Mu fiercely.
"Congratulations, No. 63. You've won. You now have four points. In addition, because your combat skills are comparable to a peerless master, the rules will be the same when you fight against a peerless master in the future," the Holy Spirit said.
Chu Mu was not surprised.
After returning to his room, he calmed down and reflected on the battle with Zheng Li.
It could be said that he had exhausted all his skills in this battle.
The pressure that Zheng Li brought to Chu Mu was so great that he did not dare to hold back at all. Under this exhaustion, everything he had learned was integrated, the impurities were removed, and the essence was left. During the battle, he used the Sword of Will to judge all of Zheng Li's actions.
Zheng Li was a peerless master, so using the Sword of Will to judge made Chu Mu feel that it was very difficult. However, the pressure brought by this difficulty encouraged Chu Mu to go further. In the end, as the realm of the Sword of Will improved, Chu Mu's attainments in dual swords also improved. Under the combination of the two, the area within a radius of a few meters became a unique domain that belonged to Chu Mu. It was different from the Sword Realm.
Under this unique domain, one could not increase one's own strength and speed, nor could they weaken the opponent's strength and speed. Moreover, the range was only a few meters. In these aspects, it was far from comparable to the Sword Realm. However, this unique domain had characteristics that the Sword Realm did not.
Within a few meters, Chu Mu could see everything clearly. He could grasp all movements like a god. He could see through his own attacks, the opponent's attacks, and all the trajectories and intentions. As a result, Chu Mu could better intercept all of the opponent's attacks, defenses, dodges, and guide the opponent's movements into his own rhythm. Finally, he could defeat the opponent.
He tried but could not enter the state of this unique domain. It seemed that he was not familiar enough. Perhaps he could only do so under enough pressure. However, this should be something that could be cultivated.
"In that case, this unique ability will be called the Sword of Interception for the time being." Chu Mu thought to himself. At the same time, he thought about how he could better familiarize himself with the state of the Sword of Interception so that he could use it with just a thought.
The next battle had already begun.
One hundred people, one hundred points. In theory, nine people would get a chance to draw the lottery, or nine chances to draw the lottery. In fact, in the end, there were nine chances to draw the lottery.
After that, there were basically no more deaths, because once they encountered a peerless expert, they would immediately admit defeat. If it was not a battle between peerless experts, they would at most be injured.
Chu Mu's third opponent was a high-level Saint-level expert. He was defeated by Chu Mu in just a few moves. As a result, Chu Mu obtained four points from his opponent. He now had eight points in total. As long as he defeated another opponent, he would be able to obtain a chance at the lottery.
The third round was about to end. Before entering the fourth round, there were thirteen people left. Twelve of them had eight points each, and the last one had four points.
"In my place, there is no such thing as a free pass," the Holy Spirit said. She turned the wheel again and chose two more opponents.
One of them was the one with four points, and the other was a peerless expert.
Without a doubt, the peerless expert was the winner. His points were immediately in the lead, reaching twelve points. It was enough for him to draw the lottery.
There were a total of fourteen peerless experts who entered here. Now, there were only eight left. Of the other four, one was Chu Mu, and the other three were all nine-star Saints.
Among the twelve people, there would be six more battles.
The peerless expert who had twelve points immediately drew the lottery. As for what he would draw, only he and the Holy Spirit knew.
The fourth round of battles began. Soon, Chu Mu was drawn again. However, this time, his opponent was not a peerless expert, but a nine-star Saint.
"Chu Mu, your swordsmanship is excellent, but I still want to fight with you. Please enlighten me." The nine-star Saint had a good attitude. He had seen Chu Mu's battles several times, especially the battle between him and Zheng Li. He knew that he was not as good as Chu Mu in terms of skills.
But here, the winner was determined by skills. However, because Chu Mu was different from the ferocious Zheng Li, this nine-star Saint did not take the initiative to admit defeat.
Chu Mu was also happy. A nine-star Saint who could fight until the fourth round had extraordinary skills. The gap between him and the peerless experts was not as big as the others. He could also hone his skills.
Although it could not be compared to the battle between Zheng Li and Zheng Li, it was still a very exciting battle. In the end, Chu Mu won and obtained the points of his opponent. Suddenly, he had sixteen points.
"Holy Spirit, I want to draw the lottery," Chu Mu said after returning to his room.
It was normal to draw the lottery when you had enough points. If you planned to draw the lottery at the end, you might end up with nothing. Because once you were defeated, all your points would belong to others.
"Congratulations, you may begin the lottery." The Holy Spirit smiled. The lottery wheel appeared in front of Chu Mu.
There were still ninety-nine areas. There were originally nine blank areas, but now there were eleven. One of them was obtained by Chu Mu, and the other was obtained by a peerless expert.
Chu Mu took a look. The new blank area wasn't the largest, nor was it the smallest. This meant that the treasure that the absolute expert drew wasn't the best, nor was it the worst.
The same treasure had different values to different people.
For example, the Void Escape Stone that Chu Mu had obtained before. To a Saint, the value of the Void Escape Stone was incomparable. However, to a peerless expert, it was not that useful.
Chu Mu locked onto the smallest area on the wheel. That was the most precious treasure. It was so small that it was almost the same width as the pointer.
He did not know what it was, nor did he know if it was suitable for him. Of course, unless the Holy Spirit told him, he would not know the specifics. He could only rely on luck.
In this case, the more precious the treasure, the better.
Spiritual Strength could not be interfered with. Then, Chu Mu's eyes flashed. He placed his finger on the pointer and gently felt it. He recalled the feeling of moving the pointer the first time he had drawn the lottery.
Weight, length.
Then, he exerted force and the pointer began to rotate. This time, the rotation speed was not as fast as last time, and it did not last as long. After a dozen breaths, the pointer slowed down and was about to stop. It was also approaching the smallest area that Chu Mu had targeted.
According to this situation, it was very likely that the pointer would stop at the smallest area and obtain the most precious treasure.
However, reality was not so good. The pointer had passed through the smallest area, and next to the smallest area was the largest area. It was more than ten times the size of the smallest area. The pointer was likely to stop at the largest area, and Chu Mu would obtain the treasure with the lowest value on the wheel.
A bitter smile flashed across his face.
Just now, he had been constantly calculating and using his control of power. He was very confident that he could make the pointer stop at the smallest area and obtain the best treasure. However, it was not a hundred percent certain.
This was like a gamble. However, although the probability of winning was higher, it did not mean that there was no possibility of failure. Once he failed, the situation would naturally be worse.
In the end, the golden pointer did not stop at the largest area. Instead, it rotated with difficulty like a snail. Finally, it stopped between the largest area and the medium-sized area next to it. It was slightly inclined towards the medium-sized area.
The pattern in that area lit up and emitted light. Immediately, it flew out and flew towards Chu Mu.
Chu Mu reached out and grabbed it. The treasure in his hand was in the shape of a long strip. It looked like a sword that had just completed the initial stage of forging.
"Sword embryo?" Chu Mu was puzzled.
"Yes, this is a sword embryo. The sword embryo of a Spiritual Sword," the Holy Spirit said.
Chu Mu was shocked.
The sword embryo of a Spiritual Sword was very rare.
After all, most of the Spiritual Swords were cultivated from the Heavenly Saint Sword, such as Chu Mu's Blazing Brilliance Spiritual Sword, or they were bred through special means, such as Chu Mu's Eternal Spiritual Sword. However, according to legends, some Spiritual Swords were natural Spiritual Swords. The word "natural" naturally meant that they were born naturally.
However, this kind of natural Spiritual Sword had been very rare since ancient times. It was extremely difficult to form a sword, and it required many years.
Before forming a sword, it was in the state of a sword embryo.
Only natural Spiritual Swords had the state of a sword embryo.
That was to say, the sword embryo in Chu Mu's hand had the potential to become a Spiritual Sword.
Chu Mu had always wanted two Spiritual Swords, so that he could better use the Dual Sword Technique. The Eternal Spiritual Sword was bred by him, so it was a hundred percent compatible. The Blazing Brilliance Spiritual Sword was only temporarily used. He had originally planned to use the Divine Desolate Sword Seed Technique to breed another sword, but he lacked the Desolate type ore, so he did not take action.
This sword embryo of a Spiritual Sword could be used to nurture it, so that it could become a real Spiritual Sword in a shorter period of time.
If it was a Spiritual Sword that was already formed, it would not be much different from the Blazing Brilliance Spiritual Sword. However, if it was nurtured using a sword embryo, it would be the same as a sword that he had bred. It would be a hundred percent compatible with him.
Chu Mu was very satisfied that he had not obtained a treasure from the smallest region, but he had obtained a sword embryo of a natural Spiritual Sword. This was because he did not know how the treasure in the smallest region was, or if it was suitable for him. However, this sword embryo of a Spiritual Sword was what he needed.
He had obtained the Void Escape Stone in the first lottery, which gave him a chance to save his life. The second lottery had obtained a sword embryo of a natural Spiritual Sword. After nurturing it, it could be infinitely improved. It would be a hundred percent compatible with him, allowing him to unleash his strength to the extreme.
Very quickly, the fourth round of battles ended. Other than Chu Mu, there were four other people who had reached sixteen points. They immediately entered the lottery. As for the other person, he had ten points and could not enter the lottery.
