The two-meter-long dark evil dragon swooped down at its fastest speed, charging at Chu Mu. Before it got close, it seemed to suffer an invisible and powerful blow. It turned into a black mist and suddenly scattered.
The eighteen Evil Dragon Secret Guards all died under Chu Mu's sword. Without their support, the dark evil dragon naturally could not continue to exist.
Chu Mu obtained another twenty-one spatial rings.
This battle was extremely dangerous. It was several times more dangerous than the battle with Lin Zhentong. His opponent was stronger than Lin Zhentong, and there were two Dark Dragon Guards hiding in the dark. They were waiting for the best opportunity to strike and kill him in one strike.
If it were any other Star Grade demonic genius, even if they did not die, they would be in a sorry state in such a dangerous situation. However, Chu Mu relied on his own ability to turn danger into safety. In the end, he counterattacked and annihilated the enemy. Even so, Chu Mu had exhausted almost all his strength. His Spiritual Energy was also greatly depleted.
Fortunately, he executed the Divine Wilderness Returning Technique in time. Otherwise, he would only have recovered a small portion of the Sword God's Descent Technique's power. He would not have been able to sustain such an intense battle, and the consequences would have been unpredictable.
No matter what, Chu Mu was the winner in the end. The Evil Dragon Palace suffered heavy losses once again.
Wherever he looked, everyone retreated, not daring to look at Chu Mu.
Strong, he was simply too strong. Putting themselves in his shoes, if they faced such danger, could they deal with it as calmly as Chu Mu and turn danger into safety?
They could not. It was precisely because they knew they could not that they understood how terrifying Chu Mu was.
Xiao Chen quickly took out Medicinal Pills and tossed them into his mouth to speed up the recovery of his sword energy. Then, he executed the Phantom Dragon Body and silently turned into a shadow, quickly fleeing into the distance.
Xiao Chen changed locations every time he fought, making it harder for the other party to find him. This gave him enough time to recover and reflect on this battle, absorbing and improving himself.
Using battle to nurture battle, strengthening oneself.
No one stopped Chu Mu when he left.
This was because there was no reason or strength to stop him. Although the Evil Dragon Palace's bounty was good, one needed to be alive to enjoy it.
Greed that exceeded one's own strength would only push oneself into the abyss of no return.
After leaving Dragon Head Mountain, Chu Mu's Sword Origin had recovered a portion due to the effects of the elixir. He took out a flying shuttle and prepared to leave in it.
Suddenly, a sharp light shot out from his eyes like a sword, piercing through the void and landing somewhere. His aura became fierce, and with the Blazing Glory Spiritual Sword in his hand, he pointed it out, sword Qi rampaging.
"I don't mean any harm." A somewhat fleeting voice sounded. Soon after, a figure seemed to walk out of nothingness. With layers of ripples, he appeared in front of Chu Mu and pointed his sword at him.
Chu Mu knew that the ripples were a kind of spatial energy fluctuation.
This kind of concealment method combined with the power of space did not seem to be inferior to the Hidden Dragon Guards from before. If he had not taken out the flying shuttle to enter at the end, the other party would have inadvertently leaked a trace of aura and been detected by him.
This person seemed to have walked out of the void. He was dressed in a long black robe and had a black mask on his face. Only a pair of pitch-black eyes could be seen.
This person exuded a mysterious feeling from head to toe.
"What can I do for you?" Chu Mu's long sword was still pointed straight ahead. His sword aura was sharp as it locked onto the opponent from afar. At this moment, his sword origin had yet to fully recover and he had stopped using the Divine Wilderness Origin Returning Technique. From the opponent's spatial concealment technique, it was definitely an expert. If they fought, it would probably bring a lot of pressure to him.
"Sir, I don't mean any harm." The mysterious black-robed man opened his mouth again, his voice slightly hoarse and fleeting. "If I had any ill intentions, I would have already secretly attacked."
"In that case, what is your purpose for looking for me? Speak." Chu Mu said, his sword hanging down, but he did not relax his vigilance at all.
"I am called Gui Wuwu, the master of the Ghost Dragon Sect." The mysterious black-robed man stated his name and identity. Chu Mu's pupils shrank. "I also know that the first deputy master of my sect, Ying Wukong, died under your sword. However, that day, he used his own identity and not the identity of the sect to kill you. In the end, he was killed by you. He was not strong enough, and I will not avenge him."
"Wise choice." Chu Mu said. It was indeed a wise choice. Otherwise, even the master of the Ghost Dragon Sect might not be able to deal with Chu Mu. And the consequence of not being able to kill Chu Mu was to suffer his revenge. At that time, the entire Ghost Dragon Sect might be destroyed.
"I think so too." The master of the Ghost Dragon Sect, Gui Wuwu, seemed to agree.
"Since it's not revenge, then what can I do for you?" Chu Mu asked again.
"Do you know that the Ghost Dragon Shadowless Body needs to be combined with the Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track to unleash its full potential?" Gui Wuwu did not answer Chu Mu's question.
"So, you intend to give me the cultivation method of the Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track?" Chu Mu said in a slightly mocking tone. His Sword Origin was constantly recovering, and the more time passed, the more it would recover.
"That's right." Gui Wuwu's unexpected answer stunned Chu Mu. Shortly after, Gui Wuwu took out a scroll and threw it to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu wrapped his Sword Origin and grabbed at the air. Looking at it, he saw the words "Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track" written on it.
"What's the purpose?" Chu Mu said as he opened the scroll. He immediately confirmed that this was the content of the Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track.
Being unaccountably solicitous was definitely not a coincidence. There must be a purpose.
"Sir, you are now a thorn in the side of the Evil Dragon Palace. The successive losses of the Evil Dragon Palace are all because of you. Therefore, they will definitely not let this matter rest." Gui Wuwu said, "The Evil Dragon Palace's First Palace Master, Gu Xingdao, is a Bright Moon Sword Saint. As for the Evil Dragon Palace's First Elder, he has always been very mysterious and rarely acts. Legend has it that he already possessed the strength of a Dark Star Sword Saint several hundred years ago. After several hundred years, who knows how strong he has become."
"In addition, the two experts who secretly acted in the battle on Dragon Head Mountain today are also from the Evil Dragon Palace. They are an extremely secretive existence of the Evil Dragon Palace, the Dark Dragon Guards." Gui Wuwu continued, "The Dark Dragon Guards are a force that the Evil Dragon Palace has secretly cultivated. There are six of them in total, and each of them has the strength to assassinate a Dark Star Sword Saint. Especially the leader of the Dark Dragon Guards, Dark Dragon, who can directly confront a Dark Star Sword Saint and assassinate a peak Dark Star Sword Saint."
Hearing Gui Wuwu's words, Chu Mu's expression turned grave.
Four Dark Dragon Guards that could rival a Dark Star Sword Saint, a mysterious First Elder, a Bright Moon Sword Saint, and the First Palace Master, Gu Xingdao. The Evil Dragon Palace's strength was still very strong.
"These are not the full strength of the Evil Dragon Palace. According to what I know, there are still several First Palace Masters and First Elders who have retired. At the very least, they have the strength of a Dark Star Sword Saint." Gui Wuwu continued, as if he was very familiar with the Evil Dragon Palace.
"After saying so much, your goal can't be to join hands with me to deal with the Evil Dragon Palace, right?" Chu Mu asked.
"Talking to smart people really saves a lot of trouble." Gui Wuwu smiled and said, "The Evil Dragon Palace is the number one force in Zhan Long City under the Zhan Long House. If the Evil Dragon Palace no longer exists, my Ghost Dragon Sect can take the opportunity to rise."
Cultivation resources were very important. The stronger the force, the more resources they would occupy. If the Evil Dragon Palace was destroyed, then the resources that the Evil Dragon Palace occupied would be empty. At that time, the majority of the resources would be occupied by the Zhan Long House, and a portion would be occupied by other forces. The Ghost Dragon Sect's strength was second only to the Evil Dragon Palace, so they naturally had great confidence in occupying the other portion of the resources.
With the Ghost Dragon Sect's strength, if they obtained more resources, their strength would increase, and at that time, they would directly replace the Evil Dragon Palace's position.
Under normal circumstances, the Ghost Dragon Sect didn't have the strength to fight against the Evil Dragon Palace. However, at this moment, because of Chu Mu, Gui Wuwu saw hope.
"Let me make things clear first. The way to cooperate with you to deal with the Evil Dragon Palace is to provide the cultivation method of the Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track. At the same time, you can make some requests, such as what resources you need, and my Ghost Dragon Sect can provide them." Gui Wuwu said directly, "However, my Ghost Dragon Sect won't directly participate in dealing with the Evil Dragon Palace. We will only act at the last moment, when the Evil Dragon Palace is doomed, and deal a fatal blow."
"A small investment, a huge profit." Chu Mu said.
"We both take what we need." Gui Wuwu smiled.
It sounded like a small investment to the Ghost Dragon Sect, but after thinking about it carefully, Chu Mu wouldn't lose out. Because whether the Ghost Dragon Sect wanted to deal with the Evil Dragon Palace or not, the Evil Dragon Palace wouldn't let Chu Mu go. This was a fact.
There was only life and death between Chu Mu and the Evil Dragon Palace. There was no third path.
Therefore, the cooperation method proposed by Gui Wuwu wasn't unacceptable. Of course, this method was also beneficial to the Ghost Dragon Sect. If Chu Mu succeeded, the Evil Dragon Palace would be destroyed, and Gui Wuwu would get what he wanted. On the other hand, if Chu Mu failed, the Ghost Dragon Sect would only lose some resources.
After weighing the pros and cons, the cooperation method proposed by Gui Wuwu was beneficial to the Ghost Dragon Sect, but it was also beneficial to Chu Mu. At least, he could cultivate the Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track and improve his battle strength. Moreover, he could request some resources to better assist his cultivation.
"I need treasures to improve my cultivation, and also treasures to refine my Saint Body." Chu Mu directly requested, indicating that he agreed to cooperate with the other party.
"Alright." Gui Wuwu also agreed without hesitation. "I have two bottles of Four Image Energy Forming Pills and one bottle of Four Image Energy Refining Pills, as well as a bottle of Ancient Saint Breaking Pill. I'll give them to you first. After that, I'll mobilize the sect's forces to collect more pills and treasures." Gui Wuwu said, waving his hand. Four jade bottles appeared and flew towards Chu Mu.
Chu Mu didn't hesitate to take all four bottles of pills.
"The next time we meet, I'll provide you with more pills." Gui Wuwu said. Then, he took a step back, and circles of spatial ripples appeared around him. His figure disappeared into the space, and his remaining aura also disappeared rapidly.
