(Dear friends, in this cold season, please subscribe and warm my heart.)
Once they entered the Land of Exile, everything in the outside world would have nothing to do with them for a period of time.
The purpose of entering the Land of Exile was to improve themselves faster.
This way of doing things was like putting oneself in a hopeless situation, because the Land of Exile was not a good place. Looking at it from another perspective, this place was naturally a good place.
"Chu Mu, I think, let's part ways here," Gu Luankong said.
Yang Zhantian and Lian Hongyun did not say anything, but they nodded.
Back when they were on the Extreme Peak, they had already discussed this matter briefly.
It might be safer for the four of them to act together. After all, they could form the True Four Symbols Sword Formation. However, the True Four Symbols Sword Formation could only be unleashed when the four of them were at a similar level of strength.
Because of the battle with the Divine Guards of the Divine Clan, although their Heavenly Puppets were not destroyed, they were damaged and were in the process of self-recovery. They did not know when they would fully recover, so they could not be used at the moment.
Under such circumstances, the four of them could not form the True Four Symbols Sword Formation.
Without a doubt, among the four of them, Chu Mu was the strongest, and he was much stronger than the three of them. Even if they unleashed their secret techniques together, they would not be a match for Chu Mu.
Under such circumstances, if they acted together with Chu Mu, there was no doubt that they would be a burden to Chu Mu.
Although they were not as strong as Chu Mu, the three of them could be considered as geniuses of the Eternal Monstrous Level. They had their own pride and perseverance, and their own views and principles. Their relationship with Chu Mu was that of friends and companions, and not that of servants or followers.
As proud as they were, they did not say anything on the surface, but their hearts were filled with pressure, and they kept trying to catch up. However, it seemed to be very difficult, and the gap between them was gradually widening.
Entering the Land of Exile this time was an opportunity for Chu Mu, but it was also an excellent opportunity for them.
Chu Mu could understand their thoughts, and he had always treated the three of them as friends. Therefore, he supported their thoughts and actions.
What's more, the three of them had outstanding talents. What they lacked was just some opportunities that could allow them to become stronger quickly. As for danger, it was impossible for them to increase their strength quickly without encountering danger.
Everyone had their own fate, and they couldn't be restricted or forced.
As the top ten on the Heaven Azure Leaderboard, the three of them were also protected by the providence of the Heaven Azure Leaderboard. In addition to their own abilities, they would not easily fall into a life-threatening situation in the Land of Exile.
"The Land of Exile is a semi-world. It is somewhat different from the Deep Blue World." Chu Mu said: "According to the ancient records I've read, staying in the Land of Exile for a long time will cause one to be branded with the Land of Exile's brand. From then on, one will never be able to leave the Land of Exile. Therefore, we have at most thirty years. No matter what happens, within thirty years, we must leave the Land of Exile. Otherwise, once thirty years pass, there's a high chance we won't be able to leave."
After entering the Land of Exile, it was best to leave within ten years. This was because within ten years, the Land of Exile would only leave behind an aura on one's body. After leaving, the aura would naturally dissipate.
After ten years, the aura that was left behind would gradually become a mark. Once thirty years had passed, the mark would take shape.
The mark was equivalent to the Land of Exile's recognition, a symbol. After being marked, one would become a native of the Land of Exile, and would never be able to leave the Land of Exile for the rest of one's life.
The purpose of Chu Mu and the other three entering the Land of Exile was to increase their strength. After becoming strong enough, they would return to the Deep Blue World. On one hand, it would be easier for them to complete their mission. On the other hand, they would naturally be able to repay their debts.
Therefore, they couldn't allow the Land of Exile to be completely marked and stay here forever, unable to leave.
Thirty years!
With a limit of thirty years, they definitely couldn't exceed it. This was an extremely important matter.
Chu Mu placed great importance on it, and so did Gu Luankong and the other two. This wasn't something that could be joked about.
"Then, let's part ways here. From today onwards, we will meet again twenty-nine years later. Or, we can leave the Land of Exile first and return to the Deep Blue World." Lian Hongyun said with a smile.
"Let's see who has improved more after thirty years," Yang Zhantian said with a smile. He didn't say that they would see who was stronger after thirty years, but instead, he said who had improved more. He had a thought in his heart, or perhaps it was a limit that he had set for himself. No matter how much he improved, he would only be able to catch up to Chu Mu, and would never be able to surpass him.
It couldn't be helped. Time and time again, facts had proven that it was impossible to surpass Chu Mu. Even Gu Luankong and Lian Hongyun had the same thought.
"Thirty years is the limit."
"Thirty years is the limit."
"After thirty years, we will return to the Deep Blue World and stir up a storm."
The four of them clapped their hands, turned around, and each chose a direction to go in.
…
The land of the Land of Exile was dry and cracked, as if it had suffered from a drought for many years. The air was extremely dry, and there were countless cracks in the sky. It was like a world that had entered the end of the world.
As an incomplete world, a half-world that was attached to the Deep Blue World, the Land of Exile wasn't as complete as the Deep Blue World, but it had more possibilities.
As they walked forward, it was extremely desolate.
Although there were many opportunities in the Land of Exile, it wasn't that easy to obtain them.
Effort and reward were often proportional.
Compared to the Deep Blue World, the Land of Exile had an additional aura. It was a very unique aura.
If one were to use a metaphor to describe it, then the Deep Blue World would be a peaceful and prosperous world, while the Land of Exile would be a chaotic country.
"Haha, it's a newcomer."
"What a fresh aura. I haven't smelled it in a long time."
On the way forward, Chu Mu encountered two people blocking his way.
The aura that these two people emitted made Chu Mu know that they were Saints. Moreover, they were both Four-Star Saints. Within their aura, there was a unique fluctuation. It was the aura fluctuation that belonged to the Land of Exile. It was very clear.
Although it was the first time that Chu Mu felt it, he understood that it was the brand that the Land of Exile left on them. They couldn't leave the Land of Exile and go to the Deep Blue World.
Chu Mu had just entered the Land of Exile and hadn't been branded with the unique aura of the Land of Exile. Therefore, when these two people saw Chu Mu, they felt that his aura was very fresh.
It was as if there was a drop of water that hadn't been assimilated in murky water.
In their eyes, Chu Mu was a newcomer.
The Land of Exile was different from the Deep Blue World. In the Deep Blue World, there was always some reason. Therefore, if there wasn't any conflict of interest or hatred, it was very rare to attack or even kill someone. However, in the Land of Exile, the strong preyed on the weak.
In the Land of Exile, chaos was a very normal thing. Killing was also a very normal thing. Death was also a very normal thing. With a thought, one could draw a sword and kill someone. There was no reason to speak of.
Being alive was the right thing to do. Being dead meant nothing.
There was no reason for these two people to target Chu Mu. They just targeted him and wanted to kill him. That was all. The aura of the Land of Exile would make it easier for people to kill and arouse their desires.
Chu Mu became the target of these two people.
Both of them were Four Star Saints. The two of them had full confidence in killing Chu Mu because the Land of Exile was more dangerous than the Deep Blue World. At the same level, the cultivators in the Land of Exile were better at fighting than the cultivators in the Deep Blue World. Naturally, they were stronger.
Seeing these two people, Chu Mu was a little surprised. Immediately, a trace of joy flashed across his face.
His understanding of the Land of Exile was based on what he saw in the ancient books. Those were descriptions of the origin and structure of the Land of Exile. As for everything inside the Land of Exile, it was only vaguely mentioned. The people who wrote the ancient books probably didn't have a deep understanding of the Land of Exile.
Every place had its own characteristics, its own power, and the people who stood at the peak. This was the foundation of every domain and every world.
Chu Mu's initial purpose in coming to the Land of Exile was naturally to improve himself. However, he wasn't going to act blindly. It was necessary to understand the power structure of this place.
He originally planned to ask the people of the Land of Exile if he encountered them. No matter what method he used, it just so happened that two people came to his doorstep.
The two people instantly drew their swords and attacked from the left and right with all their strength. As soon as their swords were unsheathed, Chu Mu could feel the fluctuations of sword energy. These two people could actually be considered Sword Saints.
Four Star Sword Saints were quite impressive in the Deep Blue World. They could even hold a high position in a first-rate power. Thinking about it, he should be able to learn more about the Land of Exile from them.
This thought flashed through Chu Mu's mind at lightning speed. Shortly after, Chu Mu focused his attention on the two people. The two people attacked with their swords. Their movements were simple and direct. They were very sharp. They abandoned unnecessary elegance and purely focused on killing their opponent.
This was a sword technique for killing.
Although this kind of sword technique wasn't powerful enough in Chu Mu's eyes, it was already sharp enough. It was more suitable for killing than the sword techniques of many Sword Saints in the Deep Blue World. This aroused Chu Mu's interest.
As expected, if they were compared to Sword Saints of the same level in the Deep Blue World, the probability of these two people surviving after killing their opponent was much higher.
Chu Mu didn't draw his sword. This kind of opponent wasn't enough for Chu Mu to draw his sword. His body didn't move as he waited for the two people's swords to come.
From their point of view, this newcomer didn't seem to be able to react in time. Yes, that's right. The speed of their swords was very fast. This was due to the environment of the Land of Exile. After surviving in this kind of place and going through a long period of tempering, everyone possessed greater strength and speed.
