Deep Blue World.
After the nine kings of the Imperial Court came out of seclusion, the nine king divisions were no longer as secretive as before. Xia Yongxun and Kong Liu joined forces and killed their way into the king divisions of the Vajra King, Qing King, and Ghost King, wantonly slaughtering everyone in the three king divisions.
Since the three king divisions were destroyed, the Immortal Royal Guards guarding them naturally wouldn't sit by and watch. All of them took action.
The Immortal Royal Guards of the three king divisions weren't weak, but they were still weaker than the War King Division's Immortal Royal Guards. How could they be a match for Xia Yongxun, who was a half-step to the Fourth Refinement? However, they were difficult to kill. Xia Yongxun and Kong Liu used Chu Mu's method to deal with these Immortal Royal Guards.
This time, the two of them found a new king division — the Blood King Division!
At this moment when almost all the peerless experts of the Third Refinement and above had entered the Deep Blue Eighteen Hells, Xia Yongxun, who was a half-step to the Fourth Refinement, was almost invincible.
Of course, there were also powerful Immortal Royal Guards in the various king divisions of the Imperial Court. Moreover, their undying characteristics made them extremely difficult to kill.
In the battle of the Blood King Division, Xia Yongxun and Kong Liu destroyed it in the end. They also cut the Immortal Royal Guards into pieces and placed them into spatial cracks in their spatial rings. However, this battle also made them realize that it was extremely difficult to destroy all the king divisions of the Imperial Court.
"Brother Xia, the Blood King Division ranked sixth has an Immortal Royal Guard commander whose strength is already at the Third Refinement. The higher ranked king division might have an even stronger Immortal Royal Guard commander," Kong Liu said with a serious expression. "Moreover, the Immortal Royal Guards are extremely difficult to kill. Once they have the strength of the Third Refinement, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with them."
After the massacre and the destruction of the four king divisions, Xia Yongxun and Kong Liu's anger had already been vented. They weren't in such a hurry. Therefore, they needed to think more.
Perhaps, if they could eliminate the nine king divisions of the Imperial Court by sacrificing their lives, they wouldn't refuse. The problem was that even if they sacrificed their lives, they wouldn't be able to achieve their goal. Based on the current situation, it was already impossible for them to destroy the nine king divisions of the Imperial Court with their strength.
"Let's go to the Dragon King's Royal Division again." Xia Yongxun said after a moment of silence, "We'll consider it again after we destroy the Dragon King's Royal Division."
…
The way to enter the fifth prison from the fourth prison was very strange. It was cold resistance.
The closer one got to the center of the fourth layer, the colder the temperature became. It was so cold that it could even affect Lesser Sacred Masters like Chu Mu. Under the invasion of the coldness, one had to constantly resist it. After a certain amount of time, one would be qualified to enter the fifth layer.
After entering the fifth layer, Chu Mu encountered a Celestial Race Holy Venerate, a Great Holy Venerate, who was clearly stronger than Chu Mu. Chu Mu did not intend to fight to the death. After fighting for a while, he found an opportunity to escape. Under the pursuit of the Celestial Race Great Holy Venerate, he found a way to quickly enter the sixth layer.
Chu Mu estimated that he would have to execute the fourth layer of the Firmament Wither Secret Technique to fight against a Great Holy Venerate. Ten thousand times the lifespan consumption would only allow him to live for a few decades. This was too urgent, so he would not use it if he could.
Time flew by as more and more experts found a way to enter the next level of the Deep Blue Eighteen Hells.
Chu Mu also entered the seventh layer.
Several months had passed since he entered the first layer to the seventh layer. There were only a few people who had entered the seventh layer.
"I can use the Seven-star Deep Blue Divine Pearl in the seventh layer." Chu Mu thought. He directly took out the Seven-star Deep Blue Divine Pearl and connected with its power. Then, his figure quickly disappeared, leaving the seventh layer.
…
The eighth layer was a very mysterious small world.
As soon as he entered the eighth layer, Chu Mu knew how to enter the ninth layer.
This was a small world that seemed to be formed by a mirror. The sky was a smooth mirror surface, the ground was also a smooth mirror surface. The surroundings also seemed to be a smooth mirror surface that reflected Chu Mu's figure. The information in his mind told him that the eighth hell was also called the Mirror Image Hell.
"The Mirror Image Prison is really a mysterious place." Chu Mu thought to himself. With a thought, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air from the glossy ground.
The figure that drilled out was exactly the same as Chu Mu.
The way to pass through the Mirror Image Prison was to fight with one's own mirror image and defeat the mirror image to obtain the "key."
With two swords in hand, there was no hesitation as he slashed out. At the same time, Chu Mu's mirror image also attacked with two swords.
Fighting with oneself was a very mysterious experience. Because the mirror image was a complete copy of oneself.
Appearance, cultivation method, weapon, fighting skills, etc.
Chu Mu used the Basic Sword Techniques, and the mirror image also used the Basic Sword Techniques. Fighting with Basic Sword Techniques of the same origin made Chu Mu feel very strange.
The mirror image Chu Mu had a cold expression. This was different from Chu Mu, but its attainment in the Basic Sword Techniques was not inferior to his own.
"Good, this way, I can see the flaws in my own sword techniques." Chu Mu was secretly delighted.
His attainment in the Basic Sword Techniques had reached a very shocking level after continuous practice. Even the Sword Of Gojoseon's attainment in the Basic Sword Techniques was inferior to his.
So far, Chu Mu had never met a sword cultivator who could compare with him in the Basic Sword Techniques.
At the current level of the basic sword technique, if he wanted to raise it, it would be extremely difficult. Even if Chu Mu continuously cultivated and comprehended, it would still be very difficult to raise it by even a bit. It would often require a large amount of time to accumulate, unless he was able to obtain some opportunity.
For example, he could obtain the inheritance of a sword cultivator with a higher attainment in the sword technique, or fight with a sword cultivator with a higher attainment in the sword technique to verify his comprehension, etc.
Chu Mu wouldn't accept the first type. His sword technique had its own style and path. If he accepted someone else's inheritance, he would only be affected. He could use it as a reference. However, Chu Mu wasn't willing to accept an inheritance. Even if he could improve, someone else's comprehension was still someone else's.
The second option was also good, just like the battle with the Sword Of Gojoseon. However, different sword cultivators had different styles of Basic Sword Techniques. By fighting with other sword cultivators, one could understand more and help one's own comprehension.
However, by fighting with his mirror image using the same Basic Sword Techniques, he could more directly see the flaws in his own Basic Sword Techniques and then make up for them, perfecting and improving them.
Chu Mu would definitely not miss such an opportunity.
However, his mirror image did not seem to be flexible enough. When he used the Basic Sword Techniques, his mirror image would also use the Basic Sword Techniques. The two of them fought with the Basic Sword Techniques, dancing wildly with their swords.
The Basic Sword Techniques under the control of the Sword True Meaning had reached a whole new level. There was no place where the sword could not be used.
The sword was everywhere. There was no blind spot to speak of.
Chu Mu's Basic Sword Techniques had reached an astonishing level. The more profound and perfect his mastery was, the more he could not find the so-called flaw after fighting for a while.
However, Chu Mu had always adhered to the principle of striving for perfection. He believed that there was no such thing as perfection in the world. There must be flaws in his Basic Sword Techniques. It was just that they were very small, or perhaps he could not find them with his current realm.
If he could not find them now, then he would continue to fight until he found them.
Fight, fight, fight!
With Chu Mu's current strength and the characteristics of the Withering Secret Skill, he did not consume much energy to perform the Basic Sword Techniques. As for him, when he was a mortal sword cultivator, he could lock himself up to practice the sword for a few months. Sometimes, he would stab for more than ten days consecutively. He would stab tens of thousands of times a day. That kind of boredom and loneliness was enough to torture a normal person to madness.
As the saying goes, one cannot live without madness. It was precisely because of this madness that Chu Mu could become the youngest Sword Master at such a young age and break the record.
After his soul transmigrated to the Ancient Sword Continent, he became a swordsman. From then on, he embarked on the path of Sword Cultivation. He had greater power and a longer lifespan. This made Chu Mu's heart to pursue the Dao even more resolute. His will had also been sharpened time and time again.
Now, not to mention a few months of closed-door practice, he could even do it for a few hundred years.
Of course, Chu Mu also knew that he could only live for a few hundred years. If he really used a few hundred years to practice the sword, his life would be exhausted and he would die even if his mastery of the sword reached an astonishing level.
There was only hope if he was alive.
He cleared away all distracting thoughts and focused. He focused all his mind and fought with the mirror image. He only fought with the Basic Sword Techniques.
Two hours passed and the battle was still going on.
Four hours passed and the battle was still going on.
Soon, a day passed and the battle was still going on.
The consumption of energy was negligible. As long as he lived, the battle would not stop.
One day, two days, three days …
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed and Chu Mu was still fighting with his mirror image.
After a dozen or so days, Chu Mu finally discovered a flaw in his basic sword technique. Then, he went on to perfect it.
The discovery of a flaw gave Chu Mu enough motivation to continue fighting.
It could be said that Chu Mu was the first person to enter the Eighth Hell. However, more than ten days had passed and more people had entered the Eighth Hell. There were even people who had defeated their mirror images and entered the Ninth Hell.
Chu Mu did not know any of this. He was completely immersed in his battle.
The state of Sword in the Heart had reached the pinnacle. Moreover, as the intensity of the battle increased, Chu Mu gradually grasped it. In addition, during the battle, every time he used his sword, Chu Mu would use the power of Sword Intent, causing his control of Sword Intent to increase.
Soon, half a year had passed.
In the Basic Sword Techniques, Chu Mu found three flaws and made up for them. As the Sword Techniques were perfected, the flaws became fewer and harder to find.
"Unfortunately, the timing is not right." Chu Mu thought. He could not continue fighting here. Half a year had passed and he might have fallen behind others. He could only end the battle.
