"Sword Realm!"
Without hesitation, Chu Mu used the power of the Sword Realm. With the Silver Light Spiritual Sword and the Eternal Spiritual Sword in his hands, his speed increased.
Flying Heaven Sword Manipulation Technique!
The Sword Light flashed, and he became one with the sword. His speed increased again, and he rushed towards Zhan Wukong and Zhan Wuying.
Zhan Wukong and Zhan Wuying had noticed Chu Mu, especially Zhan Wuying, who felt that he looked familiar. However, Chu Mu was wearing a blood-red robe now. He looked different from before, so they did not recognize him immediately.
"It's you." Zhan Wuying recognized Chu Mu. The hatred accumulated in his heart instantly exploded. The endless waves and waves almost made him lose his mind, "You deserve to die!"
With a furious roar, Zhan Wuying unleashed all of his strength. A loud boom resounded, shaking the void. His body flickered and disappeared without a trace.
The next moment, Zhan Wuying appeared in front of Chu Mu. At some point, he was holding an almost transparent short sword in his hand. It was hard to detect, but the sharpness that instantly blossomed was extremely shocking. This sword cut through the void and slashed towards Chu Mu's throat. That sharpness would cut off one's head if it hit.
Zhan Wukong also recognized Chu Mu. Although he had not seen Chu Mu in person, he had seen Chu Mu's portrait. Therefore, he attacked as well.
His figure seemed to have merged into the void. When he reappeared, he was right behind Chu Mu. Holding the sword in one hand, he instantly stabbed out. The sword light split into numerous densely packed sword rays that engulfed Chu Mu's entire body, cutting off all escape routes and dodging.
Pincer attack.
Zhan Wuying was at the Beginner Second Refining, while Zhan Wukong was at the Middle Second Refining. The two of them were very coordinated, and they could easily kill experts of the same level.
Unfortunately, they could not compare to Chu Mu's strength.
"Sword God's Descent!"
With a low shout, Chu Mu activated the power of the second level of the Sword God's Descent. In an instant, the sharpness of the two swords increased by a hundredfold.
In an instant, his strength at the peak of the beginner stage of Second Refinement increased by a hundredfold. He skipped the intermediate stage of Second Refinement, skipped the advanced stage of Second Refinement, and reached the peak of Second Refinement.
A terrifying light blossomed from the two swords, causing Zhan Wukong and Zhan Wuying to shiver. It was as if a formless Sword Qi had cut through their bodies.
They had never imagined that Chu Mu could actually erupt with such a terrifying sharpness, directly amplifying it by a hundred times.
That's right, a hundredfold increase!
In the Imperial Dynasty, there were some secret techniques that could instantly increase one's destructive power but at most, it was ten times. It was also very difficult to cultivate and the side effects were obvious. Unless they had no choice, they wouldn't use it.
How could they have imagined that Chu Mu would possess a secret technique that could be used in an instant and amplify one's strength by a hundred times? That could no longer be described with the word 'terrifying'.
If they knew that there was an even higher level of the secret technique that could amplify one's strength by a thousand times, how shocked would they be?
One had to know that even in the True God Sword Sect back then, no one had managed to cultivate the third level of the Sword God's Descent. After all, the third level required more than ten types of Heaven and Earth Essence, and each type required a large amount.
Not to mention the third level, even the second level was only grasped by three people in the True God Sword Sect at its peak.
Moreover, the Sword God's Descent secret technique was the absolute inheritance of the True God Sword Sect. It was a part of the Sword Heaven and Earth and was incomparably important. It was an extremely big secret. In the entire True God Sword Sect, there were very few people who knew about it. Those who had tried it were all dead and did not leave any records.
If Chu Mu was weak, Zhan Wuying and Zhan Wukong would definitely try to obtain that secret technique. Once they obtained it and cultivated it, their strength would definitely reach a terrifying level. If they gave it to the Imperial Dynasty, they would receive a huge reward.
Unfortunately, Chu Mu's explosive strength and sharpness caused their hearts to turn cold and their bodies to tremble.
Zhan Wuying's sword slashed towards Chu Mu's throat. It was invisible and extremely fast. However, Chu Mu's sword was even faster. With a flash of silver light, Zhan Wuying's sword couldn't block that terrifying sharpness and was directly cut apart. The Silver Light Spiritual Sword didn't seem to be obstructed at all and continued towards Zhan Wuying.
Zhan Wuying didn't have time to dodge at all. With a flash of Sword Light, his neck was instantly cut off and he flew up.
The Eternal Spirit Sword trembled, and a terrifying energy exploded. Its sharpness was unstoppable, and it shattered all of Zhan Wukong's sword images before stabbing forward. Zhan Wukong's strength was, after all, stronger than Zhan Wuying. At the critical moment, he dodged, barely managing to avoid being hit in his vitals. Yet, Chu Mu's reaction was even faster. With the Heart Sword as One, all reactions were within Chu Mu's grasp.
With a flick of his wrist, the sword changed from a straight stab to a horizontal slash. It was extremely fast, but Zhan Wukong reacted instantly and dodged. He was slightly injured. Chu Mu changed his move for the third time. Zhan Wukong couldn't dodge anymore and his neck was cut.
Under the shocking sharpness, even if Zhan Wukong's neck was ten times harder, it wouldn't be able to block at all.
Double Sword Double Kill!
In just one exchange, Zhan Wuying and Zhan Wukong, who could have made Chu Mu flee in panic, didn't even have the chance to use their full strength before their heads were cut off by Chu Mu's sword.
Cutting off their heads didn't mean that they were dead. Their primordial spirits were still there.
Without any hesitation, Zhan Wuying and Zhan Wukong's primordial spirits left their heads and flew in different directions at a shocking speed. They made up their minds that even if Chu Mu wanted to chase them, he could only chase one. As long as the other escaped and returned to the Imperial Dynasty, they could bring the news back.
Chu Mu, who could use the hundred-fold amplification technique, was definitely terrifying. Maybe he would bring disaster to the Imperial Dynasty and they had to pay attention to him.
Unfortunately, Chu Mu's Heart and Sword as One could cover a twenty-five-meter radius. Everything within twenty-five meters was within his senses.
The appearance of Zhan Wuying and Zhan Wukong's primordial spirits was also within Chu Mu's control.
He attacked.
The sword light shot out quickly and caught up to the two primordial spirits, instantly piercing through them. Their consciousness dissipated and their primordial spirits shattered.
Easily, Chu Mu killed the first and second heavenly generals of War Monarch's Five Heavenly Generals. Now, four of War Monarch's Five Heavenly Generals had died under Chu Mu's sword. As for the third heavenly general, he self-detonated.
One had to say that the Imperial Dynasty's losses weren't small. Or rather, the Imperial Dynasty's losses weren't small.
Once the two of them died, their interspatial rings became Chu Mu's spoils of war. As generals of the Imperial Dynasty and top experts of the Second Refinement, there were many good things in their interspatial rings.
"This is … Void Steps …" Chu Mu picked up a manual and took a look. It was a secret technique that couldn't increase one's strength, but it had miraculous effects in battle. It was the same technique that Zhan Wukong had used before. He instantly disappeared and reappeared behind Chu Mu.
"Not bad, I can learn it. I can use it at a crucial moment." Chu Mu thought to himself. With his comprehension, after reading it once, he comprehended 30% of the Void Step's content.
After memorizing the content, Chu Mu continued forward and comprehended the Void Steps that he had just obtained. To cultivate this secret technique, one needed to use the Space Law Crystal. However, there wouldn't be any side effects when using it. It was just that after using it once, a corresponding amount of the secret technique would be consumed. Once the secret technique's power was used up, it would have to be replenished.
Since Zhan Wukong had cultivated the Void Steps, he would naturally prepare a portion of the Space Law Crystal.
Among the Space Law Crystals, there were high and low values. The Five Elements Law Crystal was the most common, while the Space Law Crystal was the most valuable. One Space Law Crystal could be exchanged for ten Five Elements Law Crystals.
There weren't many Space Law Crystals in Zhan Wukong's interspatial ring, only a dozen. He hadn't started cultivating yet, so Chu Mu didn't know how many times he could use the Void Steps.
Soon, Chu Mu entered the Sky Dragon Territory and quickly flew towards the valley where he had killed Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wuming.
When Chu Mu arrived at the valley, there was still more than a month before the three-year agreement with Kong Liu. The valley was silent. Kong Liu hadn't come yet, so Chu Mu stayed in the valley for the time being.
After completely comprehending the Void Steps secret technique, Chu Mu took out a Space Law Crystal and started cultivating the Void Steps secret technique.
Although the Void Steps secret technique was unfathomable, it couldn't be compared to a secret technique like the Sword God's Descent. Therefore, Chu Mu didn't find it difficult to cultivate it. Soon, he mastered the Void Steps secret technique.
"Void Steps!"
With a silent chant, Chu Mu instantly executed it. He took a step forward, and the power of the Void Steps secret technique stored in his body instantly spread throughout his body. Chu Mu felt as if he had entered a spatial crack. He moved forward rapidly and appeared a hundred meters away.
This was a very magical experience. However, the speed of the Void Steps secret technique was only a little faster than his explosive speed. It wasn't much of an advantage, but there was one difference. The Void Steps secret technique was used in spatial cracks, so it was difficult to intercept.
The power of the secret technique condensed from a Space Law Crystal could only be used once. Chu Mu absorbed the remaining ten Space Law Crystals and stored them as the power of the Void Steps secret technique. He executed the Void Steps secret technique three more times. Only by doing so could he familiarize himself with it and control it accurately. He wouldn't lose control and appear in other places after executing the secret technique.
Time passed, and soon, a month had passed. Five figures flew across the sky towards the valley. Their speed was extremely fast, and it didn't take long for them to enter the valley.
"Brother Chu Mu." Kong Liu saw Chu Mu in the valley at a glance.
"Brother Kong Liu." Chu Mu responded and looked at the other four. He had seen one of them before. It was Lei Ba. Lei Ba also looked at Chu Mu and greeted Chu Mu. The other three were unfamiliar.
"The three of you, this is the Chu Mu I mentioned. Brother Chu Mu, let me introduce you …" Kong Liu introduced both parties.
