The Hundred Sword Tower was a public place, but only sword tower people could enter.
Today, the Hundred Sword Tower was completely booked. Normal sword tower people didn't have the right to enter.
Chu Mu and the others quickly entered the Hundred Sword Tower under Lin Mo's lead. Lin Mo was clearly very familiar with the people already in the Hundred Sword Tower, and they all greeted each other.
"Haha, Brother Yichen, Tower Master Su Qiuxue, it truly wasn't easy to invite you here." A tall middle aged man laughed heartily. He was the organizer of this Hundred Sword Tower gathering, Tower Master Cao Jianzheng from the eighth heaven's sword tower.
"Brother Cao, it was easy to invite me, mainly because Tower Master Su is busy." Li Yichen laughed. Anyone with eyes could see that he was interested in the black clothed Tower Master Su Qiuxue, but he didn't know if she was interested in him.
"Then Brother Yichen has to work hard." Cao Jianzheng laughed. He swept his gaze over Shang Zhizhen and the others, feeling that they were familiar. His gaze then fell on Chu Mu's face, and his brows creased. He looked at Lin Mo, "Lin Mo, this new friend is?"
"Brother Cao, this is our Sword City's new Sword Of Gojoseon. He's called Chu Mu …" Lin Mo said as he looked at Chu Mu, "This name is correct, right?"
It seemed to be a question, but everyone could feel Lin Mo's contempt.
"Oh, it's that sword technique genius not even twenty years old?"
"He indeed looks very young. Eighteen years old. At that time, my sword technique realm was only at Heart's Desire."
"He's so young, yet his sword technique realm has reached the human realm. His sword technique talent is superb. In the future, he may even reach the earth realm."
Earth realm was the lifelong pursuit of many sword cultivators. Many sword cultivators were stuck in the human realm their entire lives, unable to break through.
"It's because I saw that this new Sword Of Gojoseon is a sword technique genius that I invited him here to give him some pointers." Lin Mo said.
Shang Zhizhen stared coldly at Lin Mo. He obviously knew that Lin Mo's so-called pointers were not good intentions.
The people present all had good relationships with Lin Mo. Thus, when they heard Lin Mo's words, they naturally understood what he meant. Thus, they all laughed.
"I heard that I can earn Sword City Points here, so I came." Chu Mu said calmly. What a joke. How could a Sovereign Realm expert be intimidated by the gazes of a group of Eternal Realm experts?
"You can indeed earn Sword City Points here. Let's see if you have the ability." Perhaps it was because Chu Mu's words were too direct, but some people immediately sneered and retorted bluntly. There were also some people who showed unfriendly expressions.
"How?" Chu Mu did not care about the attitudes of others. As for Shang Zhizhen and the other two, they let out a bitter smile. Old Brother Chu, you're just drawing hatred.
But what they didn't know was that Chu Mu wanted to get more Sword City Points as soon as possible so that he could increase his cultivation as soon as possible.
After all, Cao Jianzheng was the initiator of this gathering. Naturally, he couldn't let the situation get out of control. He explained, "Sword Of Gojoseon, our gathering is not to earn Sword City Points, but to exchange sword skills and insights. Sword City Points are just a side benefit. After all, it can make everyone more motivated."
Chu Mu nodded. Cao Jianzheng continued, "Sometimes, we will exchange pointers in our gatherings. But this time, it's not a friendly exchange. Instead, we will display our own abilities and create sword moves on the spot. Then, others will break the move. If the move is broken, then you will have to pay a certain amount of Sword City Points to the opponent. If you can't break the move, then you will naturally get a certain amount of Sword City Points. Usually, it's ten points, but you can also bet to increase it."
Cao Jianzheng's words immediately made Chu Mu understand.
Creating and breaking moves on the spot was indeed a new way of doing things.
Of course, as for whether the sword moves were created on the spot or not, it would depend on the person's self-awareness. Maybe some people had already prepared for it.
However, under normal circumstances, very few people would do this. This was because creating and breaking moves on the spot would also be helpful to their own swordsmanship. If they prepared in advance, it would be cheating. Other than obtaining some Sword City Points, it would not be very beneficial to their own swordsmanship. Moreover, there would be some grudges in their hearts.
They were all sword cultivators. Going against the sword heart would only backfire.
"Sword Of Gojoseon is a new Sword Of Gojoseon. It's also his first time participating in our gathering. I suggest that we let Chu Sword Of Gojoseon create his move first." Lin Mo suddenly said. It sounded like he was giving face to Chu Mu by letting him create his move first. It seemed like a show of respect, but it was actually a trap. Shang Zhizhen and the others couldn't point it out.
Everyone naturally understood Lin Mo's words. Chu Mu also understood the meaning behind it. Lin Mo wanted to teach him a lesson.
He had only rejected the other party's invitation. How could he bear such a grudge? If he was too petty, then his achievements would be limited.
"Then I'll throw a brick to attract jade." Chu Mu didn't have any intention of declining. Creating his own sword move wasn't difficult for him at all. The difficult part was creating a near-perfect sword move that he wanted to use. That required a lot of accumulation.
"Sword Of Gojoseon, if you create your own sword move, you don't need to use it. Just send it into the Will Stone. If someone wants to break the move, they can directly touch the Will Stone." Cao Jianzheng was the organizer of the gathering after all. He had to make things clear.
"Remember, there's a time limit to creating a move. It can't exceed fifteen minutes," said Lin Mo.
"This Lin … Sword Of Gojoseon, if he creates a sword move, will you break it?" asked Chu Mu. He knew the other party's name, but purposely used something to replace it. It was a kind of counterattack.
"Break, of course I'll break it." Lin Mo's eyes flashed with anger.
"I remember that Pagoda Venerable Cao said that Sword City Points can be raised." Chu Mu looked at Lin Mo. "If it's less than a hundred points, don't embarrass yourself."
"Don't worry, a mere hundred Sword City Points is nothing to me." Lin Mo sneered.
Chu Mu smiled and didn't say anything. He walked to the side of a black Will Stone and closed his eyes to think.
No one disturbed him. Although they didn't say anything, they were all pondering in their hearts.
Time slowly passed. After fifteen minutes, Chu Mu placed his hand on the Will Stone. After a few breaths, his hand left the stone.
"Okay, then let me see how exquisite the eighteen year old Sword Of Gojoseon's self-created sword move is." Lin Mo's eyes flashed. He strode over and said, "You have five hundred Sword City Points, right? I'll raise it by five hundred."
"Lin Mo, isn't five hundred too much?" Everyone was shocked. Five hundred might not be a lot to them, but for a new Sword Of Gojoseon, it was definitely not a small amount. Cao Jianzheng said.
"Sword Of Gojoseon, don't you want to earn Sword City Points? Of course, the more the better." Lin Mo smiled and looked at Chu Mu. "Don't you think so, Sword Of Gojoseon?"
"Of course." Chu Mu said unconcernedly. With his Heaven Realm Sword Art Realm and Dominator Realm cultivation, he might not be satisfied with the sword move he created, but it was definitely profound and exquisite. How could it be broken so easily? "However, is there a time limit for breaking the move?"
"Yes, the time limit for creating and breaking the move is fifteen minutes." Shang Zhizhen immediately said.
Lin Mo glanced at Shang Zhizhen and placed his hand on the Will Stone. He closed his eyes and his consciousness entered the Will Stone, condensing into a figure.
Within the Will Stone, there was a figure. It was Chu Mu's figure. He stood with a sword in his hand. When he saw Lin Mo charging over, he instinctively slashed out. This sword move was Chu Mu's self-created sword move.
It was a simple slash, but Lin Mo didn't underestimate it. He used words to provoke Chu Mu again and again, but when it came to breaking the sword move, he was completely focused.
An 18-year-old genius who could become the Sword Of Gojoseon. His self-created sword move might have some mysteries.
Lin Mo was still trying to think of a way to deal with this simple slash when the sword suddenly split into two, two into four, four into eight, and eight into sixteen. And the number of slashes continued to multiply, until there were so many of them that they slashed down from all directions.
Lin Mo was shocked and hurriedly retreated. His mind raced as he tried to think of a way to break it, but he couldn't think of anything.
Time slowly passed. Lin Mo used all kinds of sword moves, but he still couldn't break Chu Mu's sword move.
The so-called breaking of a move referred to targeting the flaws in the opponent's sword move and breaking it. It didn't rely on brute force to break it. Plus, when one's consciousness entered the Will Stone, one couldn't use any extra power. One could only rely on finding the flaws in the opponent's sword move and break it. This was the only way.
Was there a flaw in Chu Mu's self-created move?
Yes, at least in Chu Mu's eyes, there was. But in Lin Mo's eyes, there wasn't, because he couldn't find it.
Time slowly passed. Lin Mo was anxious. This was not only related to 500 Sword City Points, but also his face.
"Calm down, calm down, there must be a flaw. How can a mere Ichino Sword Of Gojoseon's self-created move stump me, a 4-star Sword Of Gojoseon?" Lin Mo constantly reminded himself.
"He still hasn't broken the move." Seeing that 15 minutes was about to pass, Lin Mo's eyes were still closed. His hand didn't seem to have any intention of leaving the Will Stone. Everyone was shocked.
When 15 minutes was up, the Will Stone suddenly released a burst of energy, bouncing Lin Mo's hand away.
Everyone knew that Lin Mo didn't break the move as he wished.
Lin Mo's face was gloomy like dark clouds. His gloomy eyes stared at Chu Mu.
"Five hundred." Chu Mu faintly smiled and took out his Sword City Token.
"Hmph." Lin Mo coldly snorted and transferred 500 Sword City Points to Chu Mu. To him, 500 Sword City Points wasn't a lot, because he was a 4-star Sword Of Gojoseon. Adding his identity as the Earth Sword Tower's Pagoda Master, he could earn up to 1200 Sword City Points every month. Adding on some other income, 1500 Sword City Points wasn't a problem. The main thing was his face.
