Xiahou Yuan's tall figure slowly fell backwards. There was a red dot between his eyebrows and his eyes were filled with confusion.
With a bang, the Life and Death Ring that was thousands of meters away shook. At the same time, everyone felt as if their hearts were hit by a ten thousand pound hammer. A suffocating feeling spread throughout their body. It was as if they were struck by lightning as they trembled and went numb.
Everyone's eyes were wide open as they stared at the tall figure that fell on the Life and Death Ring. It was as if the belief in their hearts had collapsed and they were all possessed. Even the knowledgeable young master was not spared.
A master of the ninth level of the Origin Realm fighting a young man of the twelfth level of the Mortal Realm. Under normal circumstances, he should be able to kill the opponent easily. Even if he couldn't use his sword, he should be able to kill the opponent in one strike. However, the reality was different. One strike didn't work, two strikes didn't work. In the end, not only did he fail to kill the opponent, he was killed by the opponent.
What was this?
It should have been the other way around.
Xiahou Yuan fell while Chu Mu stood still with his sword in hand.
The Sword Art of Dao Seeking was a sword technique that he created based on the sword technique realm of the Sword of Heaven and Earth and the Sword Principle Origin that he had condensed. He had absorbed the essence of hundreds of thousands of sword techniques and created his own cultivation method.
In order to use the Dao-seeking Sword Skill, one must first master a self-created cultivation method. If one used it forcefully, one's meridians would rupture, and one's Dantian would be damaged. It could be said that one would suffer a serious injury. Under normal circumstances, such an injury could not be healed, unless one could obtain some extremely precious treasures.
Not only were his meridians collapsing, even his sword aura became unstable and started to dissipate. From a certain perspective, Chu Mu's cultivation was crippled.
For normal cultivators, this kind of news was like a bolt out of the blue. However, Chu Mu didn't take it to heart. Because, he originally planned to cripple his cultivation and start from scratch. The process of crippling his cultivation would inevitably damage his meridians and even his dantian. Now, it was equivalent to crippling his cultivation in advance.
However, Chu Mu still had the ability to fight.
The Vast Sky Sword Technique originally had nine moves, but after Chu Mu modified it, it became five moves.
Starfall Vast Sky pursued speed, Moon Shattering Vast Sky pursued power, and Chasing Shadows Vast Sky focused on dodging. Chu Mu did not use this move because it was a large-scale attack sword technique. Emptiness Vast Sky was a sword technique that combined speed and power. It also integrated the essence of Chasing Shadows Vast Sky. Once it was used, the sword and the user would disappear as if they had entered the void. It was difficult to see with the naked eye, and even spiritual sense would be affected to a certain extent and become blurry.
Void of Vast Sky was the killing move of the new Vast Sky Sword Technique.
With Chu Mu's Mortal Realm Level 12 cultivation, it was impossible for him to unleash the full power of the Void of the Void. That was why he had to reverse his martial arts and forcefully condense all his Sword Qi into a tiny bit of Sword Qi, using only a fraction of his Sword Qi to unleash this attack.
That was why he was able to kill Xiahou Yuan, a ninth level Origin Realm expert. Chu Mu knew this, but others might not.
After a long while, the people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School finally reacted.
"School Master!"
"You killed our School Master, so you must die too."
The people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School seemed to have gone mad as they rushed onto the Arena of Life and Death, trying to surround and kill Chu Mu.
Since they wanted to kill him on the Arena of Life and Death, Chu Mu would not be merciful. The Vast Sky trembled as the Sword Light pierced through the sky. It was so powerful that it could topple the mountains and overturn the seas. It swept across the entire crowd of people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School.
Chasing Clouds Vast Sky!
The Sword Light roared and shook the heavens and earth.
This sword caused the people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School to turn pale as they hurriedly retreated.
At the same time, the supervisor of the Arena of Life and Death also reacted. His face was filled with anger as he fiercely struck out with his palm.
A huge palm print with starlight gathered in the center of the palm. It contained a terrifying power that fully displayed his Nirvana Realm strength.
Under this palm, the people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School had no way to dodge. They were all hit by the palm print and flew out. Each of them vomited blood as their faces turned pale and they were on the verge of death.
"The Arena of Life and Death determines life and death. Since the Life and Death Contract has been signed, no one is allowed to interfere or take revenge. You are really bold." The supervisor was furious. This matter had actually happened under his watch. If Chu Wangting was killed in revenge, it would be his dereliction of duty.
"Lord Supervisor, please spare our lives. We only attacked in a moment of anger when we saw our School Master being killed. Please forgive us since we did not succeed." The people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School quickly reacted. Ignoring their injuries, they hurriedly turned over and begged for mercy.
"Why are you begging me? It was you who attacked Chu Wangting." The supervisor said. The Arena of Life and Death had its own rules. Since they had attacked Chu Mu, then their life and death would be decided by Chu Mu.
"School Master Chu, we …" The group of people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School hurriedly turned to Chu Mu and begged for mercy.
Suddenly, the Sword Light flashed, making them unable to finish their words. This was because the tip of the Sky Sword had instantly slashed across their throats and directly cut their necks in half.
For cultivators who had not cultivated the Primordial Spirit, once their brain, throat, heart, and other vital parts were injured, they would die without a doubt.
The people from Tian Luo Martial Arts School were all seriously injured by the supervisor's palm. They had never imagined that Chu Mu would be so ruthless and decisive. He did not give them any chance at all and killed them with one sword strike.
The supervisor and the others around the Arena of Life and Death were also shocked. Their understanding of Chu Mu deepened once again. This was a ruthless person. If they could not kill him immediately, they must not make an enemy out of him. This was because he had an unimaginable talent for fighting.
"Rumor has it that in the Heavenly Star Sect, the most talented person could only challenge someone who was two levels higher than him." The young master seemed to be talking to himself. His voice was so low that only he could hear it clearly.
The so-called two levels referred to the fact that those who had just entered the Origin Realm could challenge Dacheng, who was of the Origin Realm. Take note, it was a challenge, not a kill. He felt that this was already a legend. But now, he had seen with his own eyes that a Level 12 Mortal Realm cultivator killed a Level 9 Origin Realm expert with just a few sword strikes.
This was a legend.
Of course, in the eyes of the young master, there was not much difference between a few sword strikes and a dozen sword strikes. After all, the sword was a powerful weapon. Sword practitioners, unless they were of equal strength, if there was a difference in strength, then life and death would be determined very quickly. Situations where there was a clear difference in strength but the battle would take half a day to determine the winner would not happen to sword practitioners.
"Wang Dao, come up and take their interspatial rings." Chu Mu said.
"Okay." Chu Wang Dao's mind was a mess. He did not know when his brother had become so powerful. Hearing Chu Mu's words, he reacted subconsciously and jumped onto the Life and Death Ring. He quickly walked towards Xiahou Yuan and the others and took their interspatial rings.
The Chu Sect Sword School also had interspatial rings. They were in the hands of their father. But after their father was killed, the interspatial rings were taken away. Theoretically, they were considered as spoils of war.
The value of interspatial rings was not high, but it was not low either. At least, most of the Mortal Realm cultivators did not have one. Most of the Origin Realm cultivators did not have one either. Therefore, the people of Tian Luo Martial School had a total of two interspatial rings. Chu Wang Dao took them and gave them to Chu Mu.
Since the person was dead, the imprint would naturally disappear. Chu Mu easily claimed ownership of one of the interspatial rings.
"Supervisor, thank you for your help just now." Chu Mu said.
"That is my duty." The supervisor smiled. He intended to make friends with Chu Mu, so his words were more sincere than before. "This is little friend's land deed, and this is the one thousand upper-grade Primordial Stones."
Chu Mu put away the land deed and the ten boxes of upper-grade Primordial Stones.
"Wang Dao, go and take back the bet." Chu Mu said and took out the bill to Chu Wang Dao.
"Okay." Chu Wang Dao was still in a daze at this time. He would do whatever Chu Mu asked him to do.
Although the Bear Wolf Gang ran amok in the eastern district and was the number one underground faction in the eastern district, they didn't dare be greedy in this gambling house. Moreover, the talent that Chu Mu displayed was too shocking, so they didn't dare offend him.
Five low-grade Primordial Stones in exchange for fifty upper-grade Primordial Stones made Chu Wang Dao even more confused.
This time, the members of the Bear Wolf Gang thought that they could make a lot of money, but they didn't expect that not only did they not make any money, but they also lost a lot because that young master had bet ten high grade primordial stones that Chu Wangting would win.
One to one thousand!
That was a loss of ten thousand upper-grade Primordial Stones, while the other bets were only two thousand upper-grade Primordial Stones.
The people of the Bear Wolf Gang were about to cry. They did not bring so many Primordial Stones. Fortunately, the Bear Wolf Gang's headquarters was in the first district.
"Wang Dao, let's go back." Chu Mu said.
"Okay, big brother." Chu Wang Dao's mind was a little clearer at this time, but he still answered quickly. Because since he was a child, he had always listened to his big brother's words. Especially in the years after his father was killed, his big brother's prestige in his heart had become heavier and heavier.
Chu Mu and Chu Wang Dao walked down the life and death ring. The crowd consciously made a path for them, as if to make way for the king.
At this time, they were still in shock. Their hearts could not calm down.
When they came, they came on foot. When they went back, they took a camel carriage. The speed was fast and stable. They quickly left the first district and went to the eighth district to return to the Chu Sect Sword School.
It was not until half a quarter of an hour after Chu Mu left that the crowd fully reacted. One by one, they stared at the corpse on the life and death ring. Their hearts were beating more violently than usual.
In the midst of the shock, they vaguely saw a shining star rising slowly. It would be like a scorching sun, illuminating the entire sky, making everyone live under its light.
No one doubted this point. With such amazing fighting talent, he would definitely be noticed by the Heavenly Star Sect. They would make an exception to recruit him and train him.
