Chu Mu did not deliberately hide the news, nor did he deliberately spread the news. Therefore, the news that Aurora Swordsman Zhao Wuji had been defeated by the Unparalleled Sword Star Chu Mu's sword spread quickly.
"I knew it. How can the Aurora Swordsman be compared to the seven stars?"
In the past half a year, the Aurora Swordsman Zhao Wuji had been in the limelight. His powerful strength had the potential to be hailed as the eighth star. Now, this momentum had been broken by the Unparalleled Sword Star Chu Mu.
Zhao Wuji's defeat once again made people realize the strength of the seven stars.
After that, people came to challenge Chu Mu every few days. The thoughts of the challengers were simple. If they could not defeat Chu Mu, it would be equivalent to receiving guidance. If they were lucky enough to win a move or two, it would be enough to make their reputation spread far and wide.
At the beginning, Chu Mu was rather willing. After all, those who dared to challenge him could be considered first-rate geniuses, allowing him to verify his sword techniques. However, as the number of people increased, Chu Mu didn't like it. Geniuses were divided into high and low ranks. Dragons and snakes mixed together. Sometimes, it was a complete waste of time.
Therefore, anyone who came to challenge him would be received by the Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint. Only those who could defeat the Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint together were qualified to be dealt with by him personally. In this way, Chu Mu was not disturbed anymore.
It could not be helped. The Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint were both veteran experts at the peak of the eight-star Saint level. They were powerful and had a solid foundation. Ordinary cultivators could not be compared to them. In addition, they had followed Chu Mu for a period of time. Their swordsmanship had improved significantly, and their strength had also increased.
Not to mention the two of them working together, just one of them was enough to stop many challengers.
Perhaps there were some geniuses who could defeat the Waning Moon Sword Saint or the Rock Sword Saint, but they could not defeat the two of them together. Naturally, Chu Mu would not be able to deal with them personally.
Geniuses who could defeat the Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint together were very powerful. They were barely qualified to be dealt with by Chu Mu personally.
However, in the past few years, there had not been a single challenger like this. Chu Mu was also safe and sound.
The Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Rock Sword Saint would occasionally receive guidance from Chu Mu. After a few years, their swordsmanship had improved a little.
The two of them were now dead set on submitting to Chu Mu. It didn't matter if they swore an oath or not. Once the oath was up, they probably wouldn't be willing to leave.
What a joke. Once he left, he wouldn't be able to receive such guidance. This was an opportunity.
However, they did not know that in less than a hundred years, Chu Mu would leave.
In the blink of an eye, five years had passed since the battle between Chu Mu and Bai Chen.
For the past five years, Chu Mu had been cultivating in the manor.
With the Dragon Swallowing Jade Pendant, he didn't need to take the initiative to cultivate the Divine Wilderness Sword Art. Therefore, he used the time to practice his swordsmanship.
In the past five years, Chu Mu's cultivation had broken through from the mid-stage of the Sixth Sky of Wangu to the late-stage of the Sixth Sky of Wangu. He was only a step away from the peak. Chu Mu was confident that he would be able to reach the peak of the Sixth Sky of Wangu within half a year. After stabilizing his cultivation, he would be able to break through to the Seventh Sky of Wangu.
Once his cultivation reached the Seventh Sky of Wangu, he would be even more powerful.
On one hand, his understanding of the Sword Universe had deepened. His understanding of the Sword Shadow had deepened. His various sword moves had improved, especially the Heaven's Might Sword Style. It was much more refined than five years ago. It was easier to use and its power was more concentrated.
Chu Mu had improved. The Waning Moon Sword Saint and the Monolithic Sword Saint had also improved. Lin Biruo's cultivation had also improved. She had reached the early-stage of the Sixth Sky of Wangu.
Back then, Zhao Wuji had left behind a bottle of pills to help with cultivation. However, it wasn't useful to Chu Mu. Therefore, he had given it to Lin Biruo. It allowed her to cultivate faster and reach the early-stage of the Sixth Sky of Wangu in just a few years. At the same time, she had also mastered the last three moves of the Clear Water Sky Sword Art.
Five years had passed. The opening of the Black God Secret Land was getting closer and closer.
In the past five years, there were fewer and fewer people who wanted to challenge Chu Mu. Especially in the past year, there was not a single challenger. As for the outside world, there was a storm brewing.
There seemed to be a trend of challenging people. Geniuses were challenging people everywhere to sharpen their swordsmanship. In a short period of time, more and more geniuses appeared.
There were also people who fought and killed in order to obtain a spot to enter the Black God Secret Land.
It could be said that the past few years had been eventful.
However, all of this had nothing to do with Chu Mu for now.
Today, he was teaching Lin Biruo sword skills in the manor.
Lin Biruo's cultivation base had reached the early-stage of the Sixth Sky of Wangu. She had also mastered the Clear Water Sky Sword Art to the pinnacle. If she wanted to improve her strength, other than improving her cultivation base, she had to learn more powerful sword skills and secret techniques.
It wasn't easy to improve one's cultivation base. Chu Mu felt that he had to teach Lin Biruo more powerful sword skills.
There were thousands of sword skills in the Forest of Thousand Sword Steles of the True God Sword Sect. At the very least, they were at the level of inheritances in the Land of Exile. Any one of them could cause countless people to kill each other.
"The sword skill that you cultivate belongs to the Gentle Water Series. Therefore, the sword skill that I'm going to teach you belongs to the Gentle Water Series as well. It's called the Rippling Sword, also known as the Eight Rippling Sword Arts." Chu Mu said seriously.
"Young Master, I will do my best to learn it." Lin Biruo said seriously.
"Watch carefully." Chu Mu said and unsheathed his sword. He performed the Eight Rippling Sword Arts move by move. The first time, Lin Biruo couldn't understand it at all. It was like a primary school student reading a textbook.
The second time, Chu Mu slowed down.
The third time was even slower, but Lin Biruo still couldn't understand it. She could only see ripples spreading out from Chu Mu's Sword Light. Those ripples were formed by the Sword Light.
Chu Mu didn't use any strength. He just unsheathed his sword. However, the ripples of Sword Light made Lin Biruo feel a fatal danger.
On the fourth time, Chu Mu started to show Lin Biruo the moves. On the fifth time, he started to explain.
Lin Biruo could be considered to have some talent in swordsmanship. In the past few years, she had been influenced by what she saw and heard. Therefore, under Chu Mu's careful guidance, she began to understand a little of the Eight Rippling Sword Arts after ten days.
It wasn't easy to cultivate an Inherited Level sword skill. Even for a monster like Bai Chen, it took him more than ten days to learn the basics of the Silver Light Sword Arts.
Lin Biruo's talent was far inferior to Bai Chen's. It wasn't surprising that she took more time.
To Chu Mu, the Eight Rippling Sword Arts wasn't a profound sword skill. However, in order to not bring any trouble to Lin Biruo, there was no third person present when he taught.
Today, Chu Mu explained the main points of the Eight Rippling Sword Arts to Lin Biruo again.
As he spoke, Chu Mu's eyes suddenly shot out a sharp light. It was as sharp as Sword Light, piercing through the void.
He executed the eighth move of the Eight Rippling Sword Arts, Rippling Destruction. The ripple-like Sword Light overlapped and finally gathered into one. Then, it turned into a beam of Sword Light. It was incomparably sharp and penetrated the void.
Shortly after, a door seemed to open in the void, a mysterious and unfathomable door that caused the rippling sword light to dissipate into nothingness.
A figure seemed to have traversed time and space to arrive. An incomparably mysterious sword-light shot out.
It seemed sharp, domineering, cold, flexible, powerless, and slow.
This sword contained countless mysteries. The mysteries circulated and changed unpredictably.
With just a glance, Chu Mu knew that his opponent's sword skill was mysterious and unfathomable. It had already reached a very profound level. It was much more superior than Bai Chen's.
Of course, in terms of sword skill, Chu Mu was better than his opponent. However, in terms of sword skill application and other aspects, this sword had already reached a shocking level.
Mysterious and unfathomable!
Chu Mu also attacked with his sword.
His sword had many transformations, but it was different from his opponent's.
In an instant, the two swords didn't collide. However, they continuously changed hundreds of times. They were both looking for the opponent's weakness. Once they found a weakness, they would immediately attack.
Lin Biruo couldn't understand a battle of this level. She only felt that the Sword Light was flashing in front of her. She was dazzled and her face was blank.
It couldn't be helped. The difference between their levels was too great.
Chu Mu couldn't see the face of the figure that appeared in the void. He could only see his opponent's sword.
Being able to see the sword was enough.
The interesting thing was that his opponent didn't use much strength after he appeared in the void. He purely used his mysterious sword skill to target Chu Mu.
Since that was the case, Chu Mu also didn't use his cultivation. He also used his sword skill to fight.
The battle of sword skills didn't seem that grand and destructive. However, each move was profound and shocking. It was very dangerous.
In the blink of an eye, both sides had already attacked dozens of times. They were all moves of basic sword skills.
However, Chu Mu's basic sword skill was obviously different from his opponent's.
Mysterious.
The opponent's sword skill gave Chu Mu a mysterious feeling. It was a feeling that couldn't be described with words.
It seemed fast and slow. It seemed strong and weak. It seemed sharp and blunt. It was very mysterious.
The sword was clearly stabbing towards Chu Mu. It arrived in an instant, but it didn't seem to be stabbing. It was as if the sword was being pulled back.
The sword was being pulled back, but it was actually stabbing towards Chu Mu.
This feeling was very strange. It interfered with Chu Mu's judgment.
Chu Mu could see that this kind of basic sword skill was no longer a simple basic sword skill. It involved other applications. It was another field, another level of application. It was a field that Chu Mu didn't know.
To have such attainments in sword skills, he was definitely not an ordinary person. Even the six stars couldn't compare to him.
Under the sword battle, Chu Mu was focused. He used his sword intent to analyze the signs and trajectory of his opponent's sword. He displayed his sword skills to his heart's content.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of breaths passed. The battle between the two was limited to a small area. It didn't exceed a range of three meters.
Lin Biruo was dumbfounded. She couldn't understand at all. As she watched, she started to feel dizzy and uncomfortable. She didn't dare to continue watching.
