In a pitch-black Sinner cave, there were continuous roars, like the roars of a group of beasts.
A Sword Light lit up with a slight hum. The Sword Light shone in the darkness, and a face was faintly discernible.
The agile Sword Light was incomparably sharp, and wherever it passed, Sinners were killed.
These Sinners were all Dark Iron Sinners, and were not considered strong.
The agile Sword Light flickered, and after a few minutes, it quieted down. The Dark Iron Sinners were all killed.
"It's been almost three years, I wonder how they are doing? And Chu Mu, how strong is he now? "A voice that seemed to be talking to itself sounded, and then fell silent again.
…
Blood-slaughter City, Long Yunkong's manor.
The Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint were practicing sword techniques.
It had been a few months since they became Chu Mu's guards. They basically stayed in the manor and rarely went out.
Every day, he would cultivate and practice his swordsmanship. Just like that, the days passed one after another. This was quite peaceful, and he was not disturbed at all.
However, when they saw Chu Mu practicing sword techniques, they didn't see anything at first, and felt that it was very ordinary. After watching a few more times, they realized that it was extremely profound, and was far beyond their current level.
They were bold enough to ask for advice, and in the end, they couldn't even last a few moves under Chu Mu's sword.
Since they swore on their swordsmanship, as his guards, Chu Mu was also willing to teach them sword techniques. Therefore, after a few months, the Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint both felt that they had a new understanding of sword techniques. Some areas that they didn't understand and some mistakes in the past were all cleared up, and they were all corrected.
The two felt that the power of their sword techniques had increased by at least twenty to thirty percent, which also meant that their strength had increased.
At their level, it was very difficult to increase their strength, unless they obtained more powerful sword techniques, or broke through their current cultivation level and reached the Aeon Nine Heavens.
However, although the two of them were famous in Bloodbath City, and even in the entire Land of Exile, they were still free Sword Cultivators, the kind that did not belong to any sect.
To be able to come this far, other than having some talent, it was also due to the inheritance he had received and his own hard work, as well as the accumulation of walking on the edge of life and death again and again.
At this point in time, the pinnacle of the Eight-Star Saint level was almost their limit. It was extremely difficult for them to break through to the Nine-Star Saint level. It was close to impossible.
One had to know that the two of them had been stuck at the pinnacle of the Eight-Star Saint Tier for 30 to 40 years without any opportunity to break through.
Since they were unable to make a breakthrough, they could only try their best to improve their strength in other ways. However, over the past few decades, they had already tried their best to improve whatever they could. They felt that they had reached their limits. Therefore, they wanted to obtain a place to enter the Black God Secret Land and improve their cultivation strength once again.
However, it was a pity that they did not succeed in the end. They even sacrificed themselves and became someone else's guard.
However, they were more than willing to do so now. After all, under Chu Mu's guidance, their sword techniques had improved. One had to know that their sword techniques had been stuck at a bottleneck for decades and had not improved at all. They had thought that they had reached their limits.
They did not expect that they could continue to improve. This feeling was really good.
Moreover, they could also see that even if their sword techniques had improved, they could not be compared to Chu Mu's. This meant that their sword techniques still had a lot of room for improvement. However, no matter how much room for improvement there was, they still needed corresponding guidance. Otherwise, look at themselves, they had not improved at all after decades of cultivation.
Of course, as guards, they did not dare to constantly seek guidance from Chu Mu. Therefore, the two of them sparred frequently to find out their shortcomings and improve on them.
After being captured and used to threaten Chu Mu, Lin Biruo cultivated even harder after returning. Therefore, in the past few months, Lin Biruo had completely mastered the first of the last three moves of the Green Water Sky Sword Technique and grasped its essence. She was also very familiar with the second move and was only a hair's breadth away from grasping its essence. As for the third move, which was the most mysterious and powerful move, it was already in its embryonic form.
As for Chu Mu, because he had the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant, he did not need to spend time cultivating the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence. He used the nearly four hours to comprehend the Sword Universe and so on.
With ample time, Chu Mu's comprehension was naturally more effective.
He realized that ever since he comprehended the true meaning of the sword, not only did he have a deeper understanding of the top sword moves that he had cultivated in the past, the few sword moves that he had created were also more perfect. Even his comprehension of the Sword Universe was much smoother than before.
Chu Mu was very glad that he had come to the land of exile and comprehended the true meaning of the sword from the Black God Great Sword. Otherwise, if he had stayed in the Deep Blue World, he did not know how many years it would take for him to comprehend the true meaning of the sword.
As the saying goes, one step ahead, one step ahead. The earlier one comprehended, the earlier the harvest. To a genius, the difference between a year earlier and a year later was not small.
Originally, Chu Mu had comprehended various sword techniques from the True God Sword Sect's Forest of Ten Thousand Sword Steles. He still had seven or eight top sword moves that he had yet to cultivate. After comprehending the true meaning of the sword, those sword shadows were all integrated into the central sword shadow, and the sword moves were also integrated into it.
When Chu Mu comprehended the true meaning of the sword, he directly comprehended the remaining sword shadow.
In terms of cultivation, due to the Dragon Devouring Jade, Chu Mu's cultivation had also increased. However, he was still at the mid-stage of the Sixth Firmament of the Wangu Realm, but he was closer to the late-stage.
After a few months, the overall harvest was not bad.
Today, when everyone was practicing their sword techniques, a stranger came to the manor.
This person was clad in silver-white armor, and the aura that he emitted made it clear that he was an eight-star Martial Saint.
"Is Chu Mu here?" The newcomer stopped in front of the manor and asked in a deep voice that sounded like thunder.
Lin Biruo stopped practicing her sword techniques and quickly came to the manor's entrance. The Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint also stopped practicing and hurried over.
"Why are you looking for my Young Master?" Lin Biruo asked fearlessly when she saw the eight-star Martial Saint clad in silver-white armor. The Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint stood behind Lin Biruo and looked at the silver-white armor expert.
It was easy to recognize that the silver-white armor belonged to the Silver Silver Manor.
"Please pass this invitation to Chu Mu." The eight-star Martial Saint took out a palm-sized invitation and passed it to Lin Biruo.
After Lin Biruo received the invitation, the Silver Silver Manor's eight-star Martial Saint turned around and left.
"Young Master, this is the invitation from the Silver Silver Manor's guards." Lin Biruo passed the invitation to Chu Mu.
The invitation was palm-sized and silver-white in color. It had a strong metallic texture.
When Chu Mu received the invitation, he immediately knew that it was made of silver-white stone. When he opened the invitation, a shocking sword intent shot out and targeted Chu Mu.
The Eternal Sword Will was unleashed, clashing with the Sword Will and defeating it.
After the Sword Essence was defeated, words began to appear on the post.
They were the same silver-white words, but they were extremely clear. They protruded from the surface of the invitation as if they were about to fly out. Every word seemed to be formed by countless sharp swords, exuding a shocking sharpness and coldness.
Peerless Sword Edge, Contending for the World.
Chu Mu's eyes seemed to be dyed with a layer of silver-white. His pitch-black pupils seemed to have turned into the shape of a sword. The shocking sharpness and coldness made the Waning Moon Sword Saint and the other Martial Saint shiver.
"The three years agreement is coming. Please be on time at the Dragon's Head Mountain."
There was only one short sentence on the invitation, and it was signed off by the name of Bai Chen.
"Bai Chen." Chu Mu's lips curved into a faint smile.
It had been almost three years since Bai Chen had declared that he would fight Ye Futian in three years.
Counting the time, it had been three years since Huang Xiaolong had entered the Land of Exile. His cultivation had risen from the early Fourth Heavenly Stage to the mid-Sixth Heavenly Stage. It could be considered a huge leap.
As for his strength, Chu Mu was certain that he was a Nine-star Martial Saint. However, he wasn't sure if he could contend against a mid-level Nine-star Martial Saint.
"However, I'll find out in this battle." Chu Mu thought to himself. He couldn't help but feel excited.
Without a doubt, Bai Chen would be a strong opponent.
He was one of the six stars in the Land of Exile, an Immemorial Monstrous Genius, the young master of the Silver Palace, and possessed the inheritance of a peerless expert. All these factors contributed to his strength.
When he was at the early Seventh Heavenly Stage, he could contend against a low-level Nine-star Martial Saint. A year ago, Bai Chen's cultivation had reached the mid-Sixth Heavenly Stage. His strength was definitely close to that of a mid-level Nine-star Martial Saint. Now that Huang Xiaolong's cultivation had increased, Bai Chen wouldn't have stayed the same. He would definitely be stronger than he was a year ago.
"I wonder how Gu Luankong and the other two are doing?" Chu Mu thought about Gu Luankong, Yang Zhantian, and Lian Hongyun.
It had been three years since Huang Xiaolong entered the Land of Exile. He had gained a lot. The three of them were protected by the luck of the Heavenly Blue List. Even if they encountered any danger, they would be able to survive. Moreover, their strength should have increased by a lot. One should know that the three of them could be considered as Immemorial Monstrous Geniuses.
"There are still 26 years left. When the time comes, you guys better not disappoint me." Chu Mu thought to himself.
This was the agreement that they had made. When they returned to the Deep Blue World in 30 years, they had to have the strength to contend against or even defeat a peerless expert.
Putting away his thoughts, Chu Mu looked at the three of them and said, "Let's go to Dragon Head Mountain."
"Yes, Young Master."
Then, the four of them left the manor and quickly headed out of Bloodbath City.
When they arrived outside Bloodbath City, Chu Mu took out a yellow flying shuttle. Bi Ruo drove it and Chu Mu and the other two boarded it. After it started, they quickly headed towards Dragon Head Mountain. In the outside world, there was a rumor that one of the six stars, the Silver Sword Star, would fight with Chu Mu on Dragon Head Mountain.
