The Sword Pagoda circle wasn't large. Therefore, the various conflicts between Chu Mu and Lin Mo had spread to the ears of every sword cultivator in Sword City, arousing their intense curiosity. Even the Twelve Sword Pagoda Masters were alerted. Even the Tower Master of the Central Divine Sword Pagoda was alerted.
Ten days passed in a flash. Sword cultivators arrived in front of the Endless Path of Swords. They were all Tower Masters and Tower Masters of the various Sword Pagodas. Soon, there were more than a hundred people.
They were very curious about Chu Mu, the new Sword Of Gojoseon.
More than a hundred Sword Of Gojoseon Sword Pagodas had gathered at the entrance of the Endless Path of Swords. They all knew each other. After greeting each other, they chatted casually.
Chu Mu and Lin Mo arrived one after another amidst the crowd's discussion.
Ten days later, Lin Mo had completely adjusted his condition. His essence, energy, and spirit were at their peak. His entire body exuded a sharp aura, like an unsheathed sword. Clearly, he had done his best to adjust his essence, energy, and spirit during these ten days so that he was in his best condition.
Of course, other than adjusting himself, Lin Mo had also borrowed some Sword City Points from the other Sword Of Gojoseon. After all, he didn't have more than five thousand Sword City Points.
Full of confidence and sharp aura, Lin Mo's aura was high. His sharp gaze landed on Chu Mu's face as if he wanted to pierce through Chu Mu.
Chu Mu glanced at Lin Mo. His gaze was calm, like the water in an ancient well, without any ripples.
"Hmph." Lin Mo snorted coldly. His voice was as sharp as a sword.
"I am not talented, but I have been specially invited to judge this competition." Suddenly, a black robed old man laughed as he walked over and spoke in a clear voice. Soon after, his gaze swept over Lin Mo and Chu Mu, "We are all sword cultivators of Sword City. This senior is happy to see the competition between each other. However, this senior wants to say that competition is competition. Don't create a huge conflict and ruin the glory of our Sword City sword cultivators."
The black-robed elder was the Pagoda Master of the Second Heaven Sword Pagoda. His sword technique had reached the Earth Realm.
Within Sword City, the Tower Masters of the twelve Sky Sword Towers had all reached the Earth Realm. The difference between the Earth Realm and the Mortal Realm was huge. Therefore, the Sky Sword Tower Masters who had reached the Earth Realm were very respected.
"Tower Master Tang, don't worry. Chu Sword Of Gojoseon and I are only having a friendly competition." Lin Mo said.
Chu Mu didn't say anything, he just gave a sword salute to Pagoda Master Tang. It was a very ordinary sword salute.
"Since that's the case, let's proceed with the competition according to your agreement. This Exalted will be the referee. I hope that the two of you will give this Exalted some face and stop fighting," said Pagoda Master Tang.
"Okay," Lin Mo hurriedly replied. Chu Mu also nodded in agreement.
"In that case, let's begin." Tower Master Tang nodded in satisfaction. At the very least, both of them were giving him face. For some people, the higher their status, the more they cherished their face. "Then, who will go first?"
"I'll go first." Before Chu Mu could open his mouth, Lin Mo immediately said. He chose to go first for a certain purpose. No matter what, his cultivation was far higher than Chu Mu's. His sword skill realm was also higher than Chu Mu's. His overall strength was many times higher than Chu Mu's. There was simply no way to compare.
If he went first, Chu Mu would definitely feel pressured by the number of stages he had passed. Chu Mu would not be able to display his full strength, and he might not even be able to reach the result of the first layer of the Immemorial Realm. That would be a huge loss of face.
Chu Mu was very happy that Lin Mo went first because he only needed to pass five of Shaolin Mo's stages. The more stages he passed, the better it would be.
In an instant, Lin Mo entered the boundless path of swords and started his challenge. The others waited outside. They had no way to see the battle within the boundless path of swords. But to them, a few hours of time was nothing, especially in the face of such a matter.
Time slowly passed. While everyone was waiting, they were also discussing. Some were guessing how many stages Lin Mo had passed.
"I remember that Lin Mo went through the Endless Path of Swords a few months ago. He seemed to have reached the forty-fifth stage. After a few months, his strength must have increased. Maybe he can reach the forty-sixth stage."
Although the Endless Path of Swords was called endless, it actually had an end. The most difficult opponents were those below the Great Emperor Realm.
In a flash, two hours passed. Lin Mo was still challenging the Endless Path of Swords.
Four hours passed, but Lin Mo still hadn't appeared.
"He should have reached the fortieth stage." Someone guessed after comparing their strength.
"Old Brother Chu, if Lin Mo really reached the forty-seventh stage, then you have to reach the forty-second stage to win." Shang Zhizhen said, "The forty-second stage's opponent is at the peak of the Fifth Celestial Layer. He's very strong, four Celestial Layers higher than you. There's still the difference between the initial and middle stages of the Saint realm."
In other words, Shang Zhizhen wasn't optimistic about Chu Mu's chances.
In fact, no one was optimistic about Chu Mu's chances. They were just curious. How many stages could Chu Mu reach with his First Celestial Layer cultivation?
As long as one was a genius, they had the ability to fight above their level. The number of stages they could fight above their level was an important standard to judge a genius.
"Pagoda Master, fighting above my level is my specialty." Chu Mu said seriously. However, to others, it sounded like a joke. You could fight someone one level higher than you, two levels higher than you, or even three levels higher than you, but could you fight someone four levels higher than you?
There was even a difference between the initial and middle stages of the Saint realm.
Since things had already reached this point, it was useless to say anything.
In less than an hour, Lin Mo's figure appeared in front of everyone. His aura was weak, and it was clear that he had exhausted all his strength in the Endless Path of Swords.
"Forty-seventh stage!"
The moment Lin Mo appeared, someone immediately used the Sword City Token to check and exclaimed.
Lin Mo's cultivation was at the early stages of the Ninth Heavenly Layer, but his opponent on the forty-seventh level had already surpassed the Ninth Heavenly Layer, stepping into the ranks of the three great powers, the Bright Moon realm. Lin Mo only lost after reaching the forty-seventh level, indicating that his strength was much higher than his cultivation. He was at least at the peak of the Dark Star realm, or even at the Bright Moon realm.
"Chu Mu, you have to reach the forty-second stage at the very least." Lin Mo calmed himself down and looked at Chu Mu with a cold smile.
The forty-second stage's opponent was at the peak of the Sixth Celestial Layer.
A one star initial stage Saint Realm challenging a peak Sixth Celestial Layer was complete nonsense. At the very least, they had never seen it before, let alone heard of it.
Under everyone's gazes, Chu Mu's expression was indifferent as he disappeared into the Endless Path of Swords.
'Hmph, if you can really reach the forty-second stage, I won't dare to provoke you anymore.' Lin Mo thought inwardly because he knew what it meant. However, he didn't believe that Chu Mu could do it.
"I think he's probably at the fortieth stage."
"En, to reach the fortieth stage with the cultivation of the First Celestial Layer, he's indeed a rare genius."
While everyone was discussing, Chu Mu appeared on a wide path. The path seemed to be formed by countless white clouds. Wisps of white aura floated like white fog. Looking ahead, the path in the clouds seemed to have no end.
Chu Mu took a step forward and strode forward. His first opponent appeared clearly in the clouds.
Without stopping, he directly walked past, and that figure instantly dissipated.
It was as if Chu Mu was taking a leisurely stroll in the park. He was incomparably leisurely. One figure after another collapsed as he advanced.
In the Endless Path of Swords, the strength of the opponents ranged from low to high. Each opponent was considered a stage, and when the stages were stacked together, they formed a great stage.
The weakest opponent was at the peak of the First Level of the Mortal Realm. The second opponent was at the peak of the Second Level, and so on. The twelfth stage's opponent was at the peak of the Twelfth Level of the Mortal Realm. The thirteenth stage's opponent was still at the Mortal Realm, but he was invincible in the Mortal Realm. He was also the strongest opponent in the first stage.
The second stage's opponent was at the Origin Returning Stage, from the First Level of the Origin Realm to the Twelfth Level of the Origin Realm, and finally, invincible in the Origin Realm.
The third stage's opponent was at the Nirvana Stage, from the First Level of the Nirvana Stage to the Ninth Level, and finally, invincible in the Nirvana Stage.
To Chu Mu, passing the first three stages wasn't difficult at all. He didn't even need to use his sword.
The fourth stage's opponent was at the Immemorial Stage, and his first opponent was at the peak of the First Level of the Immemorial Stage. In terms of cultivation, he was much stronger than Chu Mu. Of course, in terms of the quality and quantity of his sword energy, he was much weaker than Chu Mu.
The first opponent on Aeon Pass was easily killed without drawing his sword. Then, the second opponent was killed as well, and the third one was killed as well, pointing his sword at them.
"Next, let's try the Heaven's Horn Sword Art." Chu Mu thought. He unsheathed his sword, and the Flowing Star Sword pierced through the sky like a meteor.
He didn't use the Dao Seeking Sword Art, nor did he use the Sword Dao Origin. He only used his sword energy. Sword energy flowed through his body, and after the Heaven's Horn Sword Art, it quickly circulated in his body and compressed. In an instant, the Flowing Star Sword's speed doubled.
Heaven's Edge was originally a Sword Art that pursued the pinnacle of speed. There was only one sword thrust, but it was divided into five levels. At each level, the power would revolve and condense once more, and the explosive speed would increase by one fold.
In other words, the fifth level of the Heaven's Horn Sword Art could increase the speed of the sword by five times. However, after Chu Mu's refinement, the speed of the sword art's circulation and condensation had increased by thirty percent. It had also increased from the fifth level to the seventh level. The highest speed could reach was seven times the original speed, and the level had also increased from the middle Immemorial Stage to the high Immemorial Stage. Chu Mu also felt that the Heaven's Horn Sword Art had the potential to be improved further, but it would take some time.
The first level of the Heaven's Horn Sword Art could break through space and kill a peak Fourth Level of the Immemorial Stage expert. It didn't consume much of Chu Mu's energy.
