The land was barren as the sun hung high in the sky.
The silver-white hundred-meter-long shuttle flew forward at an astonishing speed, three meters above the ground. Wherever it passed, the air would be torn apart, emitting a shocking roar. It was like a white waterfall that streaked across the sky.
Other than the silver-white shuttle from Plenilune Inn, there were other shuttles that rapidly flew across the three-meter-high ground. Their target was the center of the Five Great Cities, which was also the center of the Land of Exiles.
Other than the City of Silver, there were also many shuttles from the other four cities.
It would take about a month for a Seven-star Saint to reach the Black Deity Huge Sword from the City of Silver at full speed. This was under the assumption that they did not encounter any danger. If they did encounter any danger, the time would be extended. As for how much it would be extended, it was uncertain.
Tang Gao was constantly looking for topics to talk about, but Chu Mu responded with one sentence after another. He appeared to be indifferent. In the end, Tang Gao changed his target and started chatting with the people in the front row, ignoring Chu Mu. Chu Mu did not mind. Although he was unable to cultivate in such an environment, it did not prevent him from doing some research.
For example, the research on the Energy Fusion technique. Currently, he was only at the entry level in this aspect. Only by reaching perfection could he perfectly combine his Yuan Power and physique. One plus one equals two.
The others did not have the same ability as Chu Mu. After all, they were just ordinary Saint-level cultivators. The truly talented cultivators were often recruited into ancient and powerful factions. Even if they were heading to the Black Deity Huge Sword, they would not take the shuttles of factions like Plenilune Inn. They had their own shuttles.
The shuttles of factions like Plenilune Inn were just more common shuttles. Only those small factions, small families, or commoner cultivators who could not afford shuttles would use them.
It was difficult to raise a true dragon in shallow water. This was because the environment was not good enough, and the bloodline was not good enough. Since ancient times, most of the powerhouses that stood above the common people had extraordinary backgrounds. Only a very small number of them rose from insignificance.
A month's time wasn't long at all. However, Chu Mu wouldn't waste it. He made use of every minute and second to comprehend the Energy Fusion technique. As long as he could completely grasp it, his strength would definitely increase by a lot, becoming even stronger.
This flying shuttle was sealed, and there was no way to see the outside. Since they couldn't cultivate, the cultivators could only chat idly, talk about all sorts of interesting things, or close their eyes to rest. They couldn't do the same thing as Chu Mu.
While they were talking, someone suddenly mentioned Chu Mu. Thus, another discussion started.
"A Four Star Martial Saint killing a Seven Star Martial Saint. This is impossible. It must be a rumor."
"I think it's just a rumor. Just like a few decades ago, there was a rumor that someone broke through to the Eternal Realm from a mortal in a single night. In the end, it was proven to be a prank."
"However, there's also another saying that the four star saint rank initial stage Chu Mu borrowed the power of a treasure to be able to kill a seven star saint rank."
"If he used the power of a treasure, it's possible. However, what kind of treasure could allow a Four Star Martial Saint to kill a Seven Star Martial Saint? That treasure is too high level. "
"It's fake. Everything must be fake. Maybe that Chu Mu deliberately spread the news to become famous. If it's true, he would have been killed long ago."
"How do you know that he hasn't been killed?"
The discussion gradually turned into an argument. However, they didn't know that the person they were talking about was sitting near them.
Chu Mu didn't feel the slightest bit that he was being talked about. It was as if he didn't hear anything. He continued to comprehend and study the Energy Fusion technique.
This time, the Blazing Sun Period was longer. During the Blazing Sun Period, they wouldn't encounter any Sinners. There were two types of dangers in the Land of Exile. One was the Sinners, and the other was the cultivators.
Needless to say, the Sinners were dangerous. However, the cultivators were dangerous because of conflicts of interest. Sometimes, they would even kill for no reason.
Fortunately, cultivators were rational. Unless they were extremely vicious, most of the time, they wouldn't attack others for no reason. The consequences of doing so might be to kill the other party. However, they might provoke a force that they shouldn't provoke, or they might be killed by the other party.
The speed of the flying shuttle began to decrease. Everyone in the shuttle could feel that Chu Mu had opened his eyes.
"Have we arrived?"
"We should have arrived. It's been about a month."
"That's great. This time, I will definitely master a second or third level sword force. When the time comes, my strength will increase by a lot."
Every time one rode the Onyx Great Sword to and from the shuttle, they would have to pay 100 Hearts of Black Iron. Therefore, if it was just to master a first level sword force, it wouldn't be worth it. Many people's approach was to accumulate enough Hearts of Black Iron before riding the Onyx Great Sword to master a first, second, or even third level sword force.
Of course, it wasn't easy to determine which level sword force to master. There would be a time gap, and the length of the gap depended on one's mastery of the sword force.
For example, after receiving the feedback from the Onyx Great Sword, one would have to familiarize themselves with the sword force and master it before being able to receive the second feedback. Otherwise, it might cause chaos in the sword force and cause it to collapse. After all, the sword force was the feedback from the Onyx Great Sword. It came from the outside world and wasn't one's own comprehension.
However, as long as one familiarized themselves with it, it was no different from comprehending it on their own. Naturally, there wouldn't be any hidden dangers.
Some of the people that Chu Mu had encountered back then had only mastered a first level sword force. They were forced by the situation. Although the price of mastering sword force was great, after mastering a first level sword force, the power of every strike would increase by two times. The increase in strength was very obvious, and many people were willing to do so. This was because only with greater strength could one hunt more sinners and obtain more hearts.
The flying shuttle finally came to a complete stop. Chu Mu was somewhat excited. He was about to see the Onyx Great Sword.
The door of the flying shuttle opened.
"We're pretty lucky this time. We haven't passed the Blazing Sun Stage." One of the escorts from the Lunar Pavilion said casually before getting everyone to leave the flying shuttle. "Remember, you only have a month. After a month, the flying shuttle will leave this place and return to the City of Silver. If you miss it, you can only stay here and wait for an opportunity."
"Let's go. I can't wait any longer."
"Sword force, Sword force, I'm coming."
These people seemed to be on steroids. One had to know that in the Land of Exile, the level of sword force one had mastered was also a standard.
Chu Mu walked down from the flying shuttle. The ground under his feet was black, as if it was made of black iron. He lightly stomped on the ground, and it was incomparably hard. A wave of energy rebounded from the ground.
"There's no need to try. This is the black iron ground. It's natural." Someone beside him said.
Chu Mu nodded and did not answer. However, he was rather surprised. He had some understanding of the hardness of black iron. Even an ordinary three-star Saint would find it difficult to destroy it. Such a natural black iron ground was truly astonishing.
"That must be the Onyx Great Sword. It's indeed huge."
"It's so majestic. It's hard to imagine. Is this really a sword?"
Exclamations of amazement sounded one after another. Chu Mu also raised his head and shifted his attention from the black iron ground under his feet to the front. He was immediately alarmed.
Right in front of him, a huge black sword was inserted into the ground. A portion of it was exposed and pointed straight at the sky.
"Black Deity Enormous Sword!" Chu Mu's heart was shaken as he said these words.
Visually, there was a distance of about ten thousand meters between Chu Mu and the huge black sword. Logically speaking, the part of the Onyx Great Sword that was exposed to the ground was only a few hundred meters. Ten thousand meters didn't seem very big. However, the huge black sword had a vigorous and majestic aura. It was eternal and indestructible. It formed a black phantom that was thousands of meters tall.
The phantom that was thousands of meters tall and the real thing was a visual impact from ten thousand meters away. It was as if it was right in front of them. It was extremely shocking.
This was also the reason why Chu Mu was so shocked.
The eyesight of a Saint was extremely strong. Ten thousand meters was nothing to them, especially when it was ten thousand meters without any interference. The huge black sword was clearly in their eyes. Chu Mu's eyesight was much stronger than the average Saint. Therefore, he could see every detail of the huge black sword clearly.
If that enormous black sword was truly a sword, it would be very difficult to imagine what sort of person would be capable of using it and stabbing it into the ground.
"The part that is exposed to the ground is about seven hundred meters long and about thirty meters wide. According to the standard of a normal sword, the length of the Onyx Great Sword should be about one thousand meters. In other words, the part that is inserted into the ground is about three hundred meters long." Chu Mu thought to himself and analyzed.
He had an intuition about swords.
Of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that this was a special sword that was shorter or longer. Then, it could be less than one thousand meters long or more.
This was just a habit of Chu Mu. As a swordsman, he had dabbled in the art of swordsmithing. When he saw a sword, he would subconsciously analyze it.
"Let's go and sacrifice under the Onyx Great Sword."
"Hurry up. If we're slow, we'll have to wait in line."
The group immediately moved and rushed towards the Onyx Great Sword at full speed. They were afraid that they would lose their chance if they were slow.
After all, there were quite a lot of people here, but the spots for the sacrificial ceremony were limited. Therefore, those who came late would often have to wait in line. If there were some special circumstances, the queue might last for a long time. If it exceeded a month, they would miss the opportunity to leave.
