In the Deep Blue World, countless swords were pointing in the same direction, as if they were worshipping their king.
The King of Swords!
All of this was within Chu Mu's perception. He had never imagined that after absorbing the essence of the swordsmanship, such a phenomenon would occur.
"I always thought that the description of the swordsmanship in the Sword Universe and Earthly Ground was a little vague and exaggerated. I didn't expect that it wasn't exaggerated at all." Chu Mu thought to himself.
The Worship of Ten Thousand Swords!
According to the description in the Sword Universe and Earthly Ground, one could be considered a true sword cultivator when they reached the Union of Man and Sword. Simply put, the Union of Man and Sword was a standard for sword cultivators. If one couldn't even reach the Union of Man and Sword, one could only be considered a sword cultivator at best.
The Union of Man and Sword was divided into Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Pinnacle, and even the Limit. There were obvious differences at each stage. Most sword cultivators were at the Beginner Stage of the Union of Man and Sword. Those who could reach the Advanced Stage had to have been immersed in swordsmanship for hundreds or thousands of years, or they had extraordinary talent in swordsmanship.
The Union of Man and Sword required the sword cultivator to have a sword in his hand in order to fully unleash his strength.
Most sword cultivators would reach a bottleneck when they reached the Limit of the Union of Man and Sword. They wouldn't be able to break through in their lifetime, unless they encountered a great opportunity.
After the Union of Man and Sword was the Sword in the Heart realm. One could feel the existence of the Sword Heart. This realm was also divided into Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Pinnacle, and Limit. With the Sword in the Heart, one could even use a tree branch as a sword. Even if one didn't have a sword in his hand, one could still fully unleash his strength.
There was an essence in the Sword in the Heart realm, which was the Union of Man and Sword.
However, not all sword cultivators who had reached the Sword in the Heart realm could comprehend the essence of the Union of Man and Sword. Some sword cultivators had reached the Limit of the Heart realm, but they still hadn't comprehended the Union of Man and Sword. It wasn't necessary, but if they could comprehend it, it could increase their strength, which would be very helpful in battle.
Of course, to be able to reach the level of having a sword in one's heart in swordsmanship, one was already considered a genius among geniuses among sword practitioners. It could be said that one was a rare monster, and it was extremely difficult to advance further in the realm of having a sword in one's heart.
For example, Chu Mu was able to reach the limit of Sword in Heart in a short hundred years. He was still at the initial stage of Sword in Heart realm, yet he was able to comprehend the essence of Heart and Sword as One and step into the middle stage of Sword in Heart realm. Since ancient times, there had never been anyone like him.
The realm of swordsmanship that surpassed Sword in the Heart was called Sword of Heaven and Earth. Its full name was that everything in the world could be a sword.
Everything in the world could be used as a sword. As the name implied, it was a sword. It was no longer limited to the level of a sword in one's hand or a sword in one's heart.
If the sword in one's hand was a physical existence and was the most basic part of a swordsman, then the sword in one's heart was the transformation of reality into illusion. However, it was still limited to one's own realm. As for the sword in heaven and earth, it had already broken away from the so-called reality and illusion, leaving one's own realm.
Everything in the world could be used as a sword!
How domineering was this sentence.
Swords could be swords, tree branches could be swords, grass could be swords, stones without spirituality could be swords, fire could be swords, water could be swords, and even invisible wind could be swords.
In short, as long as it existed, whether it could be seen or not, whether it could be touched or not, it could be turned into a Sword. It had amazing power.
Such a realm completely left the Sword in the Heart realm in the dust. The gap was a hundred times greater than the gap between the Sword in the Heart realm and the Union of Man and Sword.
Similarly, the Sword of Heaven and Earth Realm was also divided into the Initial Stage, Intermediate Stage, Peak Stage, and Limit. The Worship of Ten Thousand Swords was just the beginning of the Sword of Heaven and Earth Realm. It hadn't reached the Initial Stage yet.
The Worship of Ten Thousand Swords had another name — Ten Thousand Swords Greeting the Ancestor!
Ten Thousand Swords Greeting the Ancestor triggered the Worship of Ten Thousand Swords. This was a whole new world.
"Next, I'll try to comprehend the other cultivation techniques. I'll try my best to grasp the essence and further expand my accumulation," Chu Mu said to himself as he suppressed the excitement in his heart.
What he was about to do was related to his future path. Therefore, he couldn't afford to be careless. Spending time now to accumulate as much as possible would be better than looking for solutions when he encountered problems in the future.
If allowed, Chu Mu planned to comprehend more cultivation techniques. Unfortunately, the Deep Blue Lord's collection already covered a lot. Even if Chu Mu returned to the Ancient God World and swept up all the cultivation techniques there, it wouldn't exceed this range.
Time flew. In a flash, ten thousand years had passed since Chu Mu returned to the Deep Blue Palace to refine the eighteen Deep Blue Divine Pearls.
Ten thousand years was almost a hundred times longer than Chu Mu's previous life. It was very long. Ten thousand years had changed the world.
"Finally, I've comprehended the essence of all the cultivation techniques." Chu Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though he only existed in the state of consciousness now, he could still feel the loneliness after 10,000 years. That kind of loneliness, that kind of loneliness, he had to endure it. Fortunately, he had a large number of cultivation techniques for him to comprehend. Otherwise, it would be hard to imagine the consequences.
Powerful cultivators could live for a long time, but it didn't mean that they could endure loneliness for a long time.
Loneliness had always been the natural enemy of intelligent life.
"Master, now, you should have decided which path to take, right?" After almost ten thousand years, the World Spirit spoke again. Although it had intelligence, it wasn't a living being. Therefore, time didn't mean much to it.
Hearing the World Spirit's words, Chu Mu couldn't help but be stunned. Immediately, the body constructed by the Deep Blue Flames emitted a shocking light from his eyes.
Yes, he had made his decision.
He would choose one of the two paths.
The outside of the Deep Blue World was called the Great Chaotic Void. It was also called the Chaotic Universe as a whole.
The Deep Blue World was only one of the countless worlds in the Great Chaotic Void. The highest limit of the Deep Blue World was the Saint Emperor realm. Because of the weakening of the Great Dao, the Deep Blue World could only barely support Half-Step Saint Emperors. If Chu Mu stayed in the Deep Blue World, his cultivation and strength wouldn't be able to increase at all. This was different from his ideal of pursuing the peak of the Sword Dao.
Therefore, if he wanted to surpass his current strength and surpass the Saint Emperor realm, he had to leave the Deep Blue World and head to a world of a higher level. The best would be to head to the highest level world in the Chaotic Universe — the Origin Realm.
The benefits of going to the Origin Realm were very obvious. Firstly, there would be no limit to Chu Mu's cultivation and he would be able to reach the peak. Secondly, there would be more resources and experts. Whether it was cultivation or battle, it was the best place to go.
Furthermore, Chu Mu was now the Lord of the Deep Blue World. He was closely related to the Deep Blue World. If he could cultivate to the Saint Emperor realm, the Deep Blue World's Great Dao wouldn't be weakened anymore. Instead, it would recover bit by bit. If he could cultivate to the Dominator realm, the Deep Blue World's Great Dao would rapidly recover. If Chu Mu's cultivation could surpass the Dominator realm, then the Deep Blue World's Origin would be strengthened at any time. It would break through its limits and become a higher level world.
Similarly, if he became the Lord of the World and controlled the Origin of the World, he would have more advantages than cultivators who didn't have the Origin of the World. This was a mutually beneficial process.
The World Spirit had given two paths for Chu Mu to choose. The first path was to use the Origin of the World that he currently controlled to create an infinitely perfect body for himself and reconstruct a nearly perfect soul. Coupled with his unparalleled consciousness, he would surpass his past self.
Furthermore, with the accumulation of the essence of the many cultivation techniques in the Deep Blue Palace, his cultivation path would be smooth sailing.
If he chose the first path, Chu Mu would have to leave the Deep Blue World and enter the Grand Chaotic Void to head to the Origin Realm. During this time, he would have to experience countless dangers. Furthermore, he didn't know how many years it would take to reach the Origin Realm.
This made Chu Mu have thoughts of giving up. After all, after forming a new body, his strength would only be at the level of a Half-Step Saint Emperor. A Half-Step Saint Emperor could be said to be the strongest existence in the Deep Blue World. They were invincible. However, in the Grand Chaotic Void, they were as weak as a chick. The slightest danger would cause them to die.
Furthermore, if he rushed to the Origin Realm like this, it would be difficult for him to calm down and cultivate. The amount of time that would be wasted would be immeasurable.
Furthermore, after comprehending countless cultivation techniques, Chu Mu wasn't satisfied with his previous cultivation. However, that was a foundation. Since it had already been established, he could only develop it. If he destroyed his foundation and started from scratch, there was no need to choose the first path.
Therefore, Chu Mu decided to take the second path.
The second path was to use the power of the Deep Blue World to directly open a passage to the Grand Chaotic Void to the Origin Realm. This would allow Chu Mu's consciousness to safely pass through the passage and be reborn in the Origin Realm. Everything would have to start from scratch. His foundation would have to be rebuilt.
With his accumulation, he could definitely step into the Eternal Ancient Realm in the shortest time possible. Furthermore, he would become a peerless expert. That would be his starting point.
Chu Mu was very fond of this path. However, if he wanted to safely pass through the passage, he would need to have sufficient power. What Chu Mu had to do next was to completely refine the Origin Source in his body and turn it into his own Sword Dao Origin Source.
With the protection of the Sword Dao Origin Source, he would be able to safely pass through the passage and reach the Origin Realm.
Furthermore, Chu Mu also planned to create his own cultivation techniques. Since he wanted to rebuild a better foundation, he needed a cultivation technique that suited him. With his current accumulation, it was completely sufficient to create a cultivation technique that suited him.
This was Chu Mu's final effort in the Deep Blue World. From now on, he would embark on the path to pursue the pinnacle of Sword Dao.
