What happened on the street quickly spread throughout Human City. Immediately, most people knew that Chu Wangting had returned to the city and had rejected the recruitment of the three major forces, Tianmen, Slaughter Sect, and Yuwen Clan. He had even almost clashed with Si Yufeng of the Hundred Sky Alliance.
Quite a number of factions that had been itching to make a move stopped. Naturally, they also planned to recruit the Chu Royal Court. Unfortunately, even the three most powerful factions — the Tianmen, the Slaughter Sect, and the Yuwen clan — were unable to succeed, let alone these factions that were far inferior to the three major factions. The chances of success were even lower.
Of course, there were also people who did not give up and were still looking for Chu Wangting. They planned to recruit him with great benefits. There were also people who wanted to challenge him and become famous. There were also people who wanted to make friends with him and so on.
In short, the entire city was mobilized to look for Chu Wangting. Then, one by one, they came to the Human Palace to wait.
The Human Palace was a huge palace in Human City. There was a large free trade market and a secret room for closed-door training.
The Human Palace did not belong to any force. In other words, the Human Palace and Human City were one. It was directly controlled by the Secret Guardians of Massacre. Other forces could not interfere. Therefore, no one dared to cause trouble in the Human Palace. That would be digging one's own grave.
Chu Mu paid a price to get a secret room in the Human Palace for closed-door training. What happened outside had nothing to do with him for the time being.
After entering the secret room, the first thing Chu Mu did was to upgrade his Truth Rune with the Bronze-level Secret Massacre Patterns.
After paying 6,000 Bronze-level Secret Massacre Patterns, his Truth Rune was upgraded from the third level to the fifth level. Not only could it increase his Essence, Qi, and Spirit by 50%, but the duration was also significantly extended.
160 breaths!
One hundred and sixty breaths of time. Under normal circumstances, it was enough to determine the victor.
Then, he began to adjust his Essence, Qi, and Spirit. After adjusting his Essence, Qi, and Spirit to the extreme, Chu Mu began to use his Great True Force to refine and communicate with the eleventh one millionth Sword Principle Origin.
Yes, the current training was still based on one millionth. Once it was exceeded, it would be difficult to control and would hurt oneself.
Chu Mu's Truth Seeking Technique was different from normal techniques. At the same level, it could be slightly raised due to battle tempering and so on. Thus, it could make one's mental energy even purer, indirectly making one's True Energy even purer.
The purer the Great True Power, the higher the efficiency of tempering and communicating with the sword dao source.
While Chu Mu was in closed-door cultivation to improve his cultivation, many things were happening in the outside world. The Immortal Clan and the Demon Clan would get the news of major changes in the Human Clan. Similarly, the Human Clan would also get the news of major changes in the Immortal Clan and the Demon Clan, unless it was some very secretive and deliberately sealed information.
Something similar to the Sword Cliff existed in both the God Race and the Demon Race. Therefore, if anything happened at the Sword Cliff, the God Race and the Demon Race would soon know about it.
The Human Clan had produced a Chu Huangji, who had suppressed countless geniuses of the Human Clan for a thousand years. He had also caused many losses to the God Race and the Demon Race. There were many geniuses of the God Race and the Demon Race who had died directly under Chu Huangji's sword. It could be said that the God Race and the Demon Race bore a deep grudge against Chu Huangji and had attacked him many times. In the end, Chu Huangji had turned danger into safety. Not only had he not been killed, but he had also killed many experts of the God Race and the Demon Race who had attacked him.
Now, Chu Huangji had already grown up. If they wanted to attack him again, it wouldn't be so easy anymore. And now, Chu Wangting had appeared. Chu Wangting was even more monstrous than Chu Huangji. Such a peerless genius had to be killed as soon as possible. He had to be killed before he truly matured. Otherwise, in the future, he would become another Chu Huangji. No, he would become an enemy even stronger than Chu Huangji.
Therefore, there were experts of the God Race and the Demon Race who had sneaked into the Human City through the Battlefield of Slaughter, intending to find Chu Wangting and kill him. These experts of the God Race and the Demon Race who had entered the Human City had no intention of returning alive. Their goal was to kill Chu Wangting.
However, since similar incidents had happened in the past, the various forces in Human City had strengthened their patrols. As a result, the experts of the Divine Race and the Demon Race were discovered not long after they entered the territory of Human City, which led to two great battles.
There were ten experts of the God Race and ten experts of the Demon Race. Each of them was an expert of the Saint Venerable realm. In these two battles, the ten experts of the God Race and the ten experts of the Demon Race were all killed, but more than thirty experts of the Human Clan had also died.
These two battles had alarmed the major forces of the Human City, and also alarmed the experts of the Human City. They had paid attention to all the movements from the Battlefield of Slaughter to the border of the Human City, forbidding anyone from the God Race and the Demon Race from entering. Once they were discovered, they would immediately kill them.
There had been many battles of life and death at the border. More than a hundred experts of the Human Clan had died, but they still managed to resist the invasion of the experts of the God Race and the Demon Race.
As if they knew that the Human Clan was on high alert, the God Race and the Demon Race did not send any more experts, as if they had given up.
For a whole month, the Celestial Race and the Devil Race did not send any more experts. It was as if they knew that it would not work. However, the experts of the Human Race were still on guard. Gradually, the martial law was lifted.
After the martial law was lifted, the cultivators of the Human Clan could enter the Battlefield of Slaughter again.
Another month had passed. These experts could not stay here and guard all the time. In addition, the God Race and the Demon Race had no intention of making any moves, as if they had really given up. Gradually, some of the experts on high alert left.
After all, they could not stay here all the time. They also needed to cultivate.
In the third month, the God Race and the Demon Race still did not make any moves. The number of experts on high alert decreased again.
Every day, some Human Clan cultivators entered the Battlefield of Slaughter, and some Human Clan cultivators left the Battlefield of Slaughter and returned to the Human City.
Today, another person walked out of the Battlefield of Slaughter. It was a young man with a cold expression and murderous aura all over his body. His long hair covered half of his face, and his eyes were extremely cold.
The experts on high alert only glanced at him and did not continue to pay attention.
After this person walked out of the Battlefield of Slaughter, he walked all the way to the Human City.
Not long after, another person strode out from the battlefield. It was a burly man. His bulging muscles seemed to be filled with great power, as if a volcano was contained within them. He had a rugged face and a pair of tiger-like eyes radiated a sharp light. His body was also surrounded by a monstrous baleful aura.
This was very normal. Most people who walked out of the Battlefield of Slaughter alive were like this.
This person was also heading to the Human City.
…
Three months. This time, Chu Mu had been in seclusion for three months.
Within a secluded cultivation room in the Human Palace, Chu Mu opened his eyes. This was the first time he had opened his eyes in the past three months. This also meant that his secluded cultivation had come to an end.
A powerful force filled his body. The sword path origin in his spiritual world slowly rotated as if it was formed by countless sword Qis. It turned into a nebula vortex that slowly rotated.
At the moment, he could freely use 2/100,000 of the sword path origin.
1/100,000 of the sword path origin represented the cultivation base of the First Refinement of the Exceptional Stage, while 2/100,000 of the sword path origin represented the cultivation base of the Second Refinement of the Exceptional Stage.
Yes, after three months of bitter closed-door cultivation, Chu Mu's cultivation base had finally improved. He had reached the early stage of the Second Refinement of the Exceptional Stage, which was a big improvement.
It only took him three months to improve from the early stage of the First Refinement to the early stage of the Second Refinement. This speed of improvement was incomparably fast.
The reason why Chu Mu could improve so quickly was because of his outstanding talent. After all, his cultivation base had reached the Sovereign Stage. It would be easier for him to improve his cultivation base at such a high level compared to others. Of course, the drawback of the Truth Seeking Technique requiring more energy to cultivate did not exist after reaching the Exceptional Stage. It was only a problem for the Eternal Stage.
Secondly, Chu Mu had experienced three months of high-intensity life and death battles in the Battlefield of Slaughter. It had greatly stimulated his potential and also allowed him to find an opportunity to improve.
Under the combination of these two conditions, Chu Mu could improve so quickly. However, the higher the cultivation base, the more difficult it was to improve. Therefore, it was not so easy to improve from the Second Refinement to the Third Refinement.
"With the cultivation base of the Second Refinement of the Exceptional Stage, without using the Slaughter Rune, I should be comparable to an expert of the Lesser Sacred Master level." Chu Mu thought to himself. After some estimation, perhaps it was not just comparable.
After improving his cultivation base, it would not be so easy to improve it again. However, Chu Mu did not plan to leave immediately. Instead, he mobilized two ten thousandths of the Sword Principle Origin and began to flow into the Li Perishing Sword.
The Li Perishing Sword felt the power of the Sword Principle Origin enveloping it and immediately let out a joyful cry.
Yes, the Li Perishing Sword was very happy. It had a strong spirituality and could feel that the Sword Principle Origin was very beneficial to it. Therefore, it took the initiative to absorb it.
However, the Li Perishing Sword was only a Spiritual Sword after all, and the Sword Principle Origin was too much. Therefore, the effect of taking the initiative to absorb it was very low. It was completely Chu Mu controlling the Sword Principle Origin to refine it.
Under the refinement of the Sword Principle Origin, the Li Perishing Sword was also improving bit by bit. However, the Li Perishing Sword was still too far away from the Sword Principle Origin. Therefore, the refinement had to be controlled well. Otherwise, the sword might be damaged.
The efficiency of such refinement was undoubtedly lower.
After a month, Chu Mu finally finished refining. Fortunately, he could freely use two ten thousandths of the Sword Principle Origin. Once it was used up, he could quickly use the Great True Force to replenish it. In this way, he could continue to refine it continuously.
After a month of refining, the Li Perishing Sword did not have any obvious changes. However, the compatibility between it and Chu Mu had increased exponentially. It was like a Spiritual Sword that he had nurtured himself. It was very flexible and easy to control.
"It's time to come out."
After putting away the Li Perishing Sword, Chu Mu thought to himself and stood up.
Four months. After entering the secret room of the Human Palace, Xiao Chen had been in seclusion for a total of four months. The increase in his strength made his hands itch.
