The light broke through the air and traveled ten thousand meters in an instant. Suddenly, it stopped.
From the extreme speed to the stop, there was no delay at all. There was also no strong power impact. Everything seemed so natural. It showed that this person's control of power had reached a shocking level.
It was Ao Holy Master of the Way of the Heavens.
This was the place where Rock Holy Master and Lin Holy Master died. Their auras were still lingering. In addition, there was an aura that surpassed Little Holy Master and reached the level of Great Holy Master.
Among the three levels of Holy Masters, the auras of Little Holy Master, Great Holy Master, and Extreme Holy Master were very different. They could be easily distinguished. But in the same level, such as Great Holy Master, the difference in auras between a Great Holy Master with 40% control and a Great Holy Master with 60% control was not small.
Therefore, it was difficult to judge Chu Mu's strength just from the aura. However, Rock Holy Master's message said that Chu Mu had the strength of a peak Great Holy Master. It was also a proof that he could break the imprisonment of the Heavenly Coffin Shadow.
Ao Holy Master did not have the Chasing Life Plate on him. In other words, the Chasing Life Plate that Chu Mu had obtained before was given to a Fourth Refinement elite of the Heaven Race. He thought that the Fourth Refinement elite would be enough to kill Chu Mu.
As a Fourth Refinement elite, it would not attract the attention of the human Holy Masters. He did not expect that his plan would not work out. Not only did Chu Mu not die, but he also had the strength of a peak Great Holy Master. He also killed two Little Holy Masters of the Heaven Race, causing great losses to the Heaven Race.
Anger filled Ao Holy Master's heart, but he did not lose his calm. Instead, he quickly analyzed.
"If Chu Mu had displayed the strength of a peak Great Holy Master, Holy Master Lin would not have summoned the Heavenly Coffin Shadow."
"In other words, the strength that Chu Mu displayed at the beginning was at the level of a Little Holy Master. He could be on par with Holy Master Lin. He could not win against Rock Holy Master and Holy Master Lin, but he could escape. That was why Holy Master Lin had to summon the Heavenly Coffin Shadow."
"Either Chu Mu is hiding his strength, or he executed some kind of Secret Technique to raise his strength. That is how he managed to break the coffin image with the strength of a peak Great Holy Venerate."
After a simple deduction, Saint Ao came up with some conclusions. He was pretty close to the truth. These Saint Saints had lived for many years, but they were not muddle-headed.
After deducing, Ao Supreme Saint locked onto Chu Mu's aura and started to chase after him. He was a Supreme Saint who had grasped eighty percent of the power of laws. His strength was tyrannical, and his speed was shocking. Once he used his full speed, he instantly disappeared and followed the trail of Chu Mu's aura.
…
Killing two Little Holy Masters of the Sky Race made Chu Mu happy, but he could not help but feel annoyed. After all, he had been forced to use the fourth level of the Withering Secret Technique. The fourth level of the Withering Secret Technique did not allow his strength to reach the level of a Supreme Saint. He was only at the peak of a Great Holy Master. As such, when he encountered a powerful enemy of a Supreme Saint, he would not be able to defeat them.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Race experts had many means. If Xiao Chen had not executed the fourth layer of the Azure Wither Secret Technique, using ten thousand times his lifespan in exchange for the strength of a peak Great Holy Venerate to break open that coffin image, he would have ended up in a terrible state.
This made Chu Mu even more fearful of the Sky Race experts.
It was not without reason that the Sky Race could be above the other races.
Since he had already used the fourth level of the Withering Secret Technique, it was like spilled water. There was no turning back. Chu Mu could only accept the reality and calm himself down.
A few decades was fine. He would try his best to increase his cultivation within these few decades. This way, his lifespan could be extended. However, according to his current strength, even if he refined one of the True Meanings of the Origin Power system and became a true peerless expert, he could only extend his lifespan but not his strength.
After all, the use of the Withering Secret Skill had allowed him to refine his Sword Will from the First Refinement to the Fifth Refinement. Then, he had stepped into the level of Little Sacred Master and then the level of Peak Great Sacred Master. Unless he could refine his other Sword Wills to surpass his current Sword Will, the increase in his strength would not be obvious.
However, thinking about it carefully, it had only been a little over a hundred years since he started cultivating, and he already had the strength of a peak Great Holy Master. It had to be known that those Great Holy Masters had all cultivated for tens of thousands of years to reach their current accomplishments.
However, a few decades felt too short. This made Chu Mu feel very anxious, but he did not know how to solve this problem. He could only take it one step at a time.
As Chu Mu flew, he saw a spatial vortex appear in front of him. It was about two meters tall and looked like a door. A door that led to an unknown place.
This was already the third time Chu Mu had seen such a spatial vortex.
After seeing it three times in a row, Chu Mu also used his Spiritual Energy to enter. It felt like he had fallen into a different space-time. He did not know where he was going, which made him feel apprehensive.
Was this spatial vortex the door to leave the thirteenth layer and enter the fourteenth layer? Or was it the method?
Whether it was or not, Chu Mu was only guessing. He was not sure and did not dare to test it. Because if it was not, he did not know what the consequences would be. If he fell into a spatial vortex and was exiled for a few decades or a hundred years, his lifespan would be exhausted and he would die. How depressing would that be?
Therefore, he had to be more cautious. Chu Mu himself did not realize that although he was getting stronger and stronger, he was becoming more and more cautious. It was different from his previous decisive style of doing things.
This was because he was afraid. It was a subconscious fear that even he was not aware of. A few decades of lifespan was too short. He was afraid that his lifespan would be exhausted. He was afraid that he would not have enough time to reach the peak of the Sword Way.
Because of his fear, he was cautious. Because of his caution, he was becoming less decisive.
Suddenly, a strong sense of danger, like a cold wind from the extreme north, pervaded his entire body. A chill rose from his tailbone and quickly swept up, causing Chu Mu's body to unconsciously tremble.
There was danger rapidly approaching.
Without any hesitation, Chu Mu immediately chose a direction and burst forth with all his speed, flying far away.
To be able to make him feel such a strong sense of danger, it must be an expert who was stronger than him. That would be the Supreme Holy Master.
And the Supreme Holy Master who would chase after him, thinking back to the Rock Saint Master and Lin Saint Master that he had killed before, could only be the Supreme Holy Master experts of the Sky Clan.
The problem of his own lifespan and the Sky Clan experts' methods made Chu Mu fearful. He did not want to fight with them. However, he did not realize this change.
However, it was not easy for Chu Mu to avoid them. Because Ao Holy Master's speed was faster than his.
Soon, Ao Holy Master caught up. Without saying anything, he attacked directly.
The terrifying white light was like Sword Qi. It shot across the sky and instantly shot towards Chu Mu. It made his hair stand on end.
He turned around with two swords in his hands. The Cross Sword Light imprinted into the sky and attacked the white light.
One was chasing and the other was escaping. Ao Holy Master kept attacking while Chu Mu kept defending and counterattacking.
The power of the Supreme Holy Master's attack was extremely strong. Chu Mu took it head-on. Both swords shook and almost flew out of his hands. If it was not for the fact that he had cultivated the Sword True Meaning and his control of the sword had increased to a shocking level, he might not have been able to hold the swords in his hands.
There was indeed a big difference between the control of the sword that was infinitely close to seventy percent and eighty percent control.
Ao Holy Master attacked again and again, but he could not kill Chu Mu. His face suddenly became gloomy like the sky was covered with dark clouds.
"Since that is the case, I will not kill you. I will capture you alive and bring you back to Yunzhong City. I will make you a puppet and keep your consciousness. I will let you be ordered by my tribe forever. You will be responsible for killing those who dare to go against my tribe. You will not be able to escape." Ao Holy Master spoke for the first time. His words were filled with strong murderous intent. It was very vicious.
Refining them into puppets was already very cruel, but they still had to retain their consciousness. It was equivalent to watching helplessly as they were controlled by others without being able to resist. Moreover, they had to deal with those who dared to go against the Tian Clan, which was even more like a ruthless stab to their hearts.
Chu Mu's face turned gloomy when he thought of such a result. Murderous intent shot out from his eyes.
Ao Holy Master waved his hands and countless rays of light appeared. They quickly surrounded his body and formed a formation. Then, the formation's power connected with the power of heaven and earth. The sky changed. Countless dark clouds gathered and formed a huge vortex. Then, a terrifying pressure fell from the sky. It was like an invisible ancient mountain that fell on Chu Mu.
The scene and the pressure made Chu Mu think of the Black Heavenly Coffin Shadow that the Sky Tribe's Little Sacred Master had summoned. His face changed.
The Heavenly Coffin Shadow summoned by Little Sacred Venerate was already so shocking. Although the Heavenly Coffin Shadow summoned by Extreme Sacred Venerate hadn't appeared yet, its aura was many times stronger than the Heavenly Coffin Shadow from before. It made Chu Mu breathless.
Then, a corner of the Black Heavenly Coffin appeared from the center of the black vortex. The pressure doubled again.
Without hesitation, Chu Mu directly connected with the Sword Sect Spiritual Seal. He planned to use his last chance to summon Senior Bai Ling.
It seemed that this was the only way.
However, this time, the summoning did not succeed. The Sword Sect Spiritual Seal seemed to be sealed by a force.
Chu Mu reacted quickly. He retracted his mind. However, he did not panic. Instead, he thought quickly and his power surged through his body.
Perhaps Chu Mu was lucky. Not far from him, a two-meter-tall vortex appeared. It was the vortex that Chu Mu had encountered three times before. It was the vortex that he had suspected to be the Space Door.
This wasn't the time to be calculative, nor was it the time to be suspicious. Without any hesitation, Chu Mu made a prompt decision and exploded with all of his strength. The instant he resisted the pressure from the sky, he leapt into the spatial whirlpool.
At the same time, the Black Heavenly Coffin fell from the sky.
