Chu Mu, who was passing by in the distance, vaguely heard the two words "Chu Sect", which attracted his attention.
"Is your surname Chu?" A voice entered Chu Zhong's ears.
Chu Zhong, who was being chased, didn't reply. He didn't know whether the person who spoke was an enemy or a friend.
"Are you a member of the Chu Sect?" That voice rang out again, entering his ears once more.
"That's right." After being asked a second time, Chu Zhong directly roared, "I am a member of the Chu Sect."
He didn't know where the person who transmitted the sound was, so he could only shout like this. Instantly, the three people chasing after him were startled, thinking that something unexpected had happened.
"You are indeed a member of the Chu Sect, but so what? A power without a Dominator is simply nothing." One of the pursuers sneered, and the other two also revealed a mocking expression.
A power without a Dominator, no matter how great its potential was, it was still just potential. It was like a genius who had unlimited possibilities, but the lack of strength at the moment was a fatal flaw.
"My Senior Brother Chu Huangji will definitely become a Dominator," Chu Zhong said angrily. As he exploded with speed, he fled into the distance. However, the three pursuers' strength wasn't inferior to his, and they were even slightly stronger than him. Their speed was also faster, so he couldn't shake them off at all.
"That's right, Senior Brother Huangji will definitely become a Dominator." An extremely unexpected voice rang out, and it was as sharp as the edge of a sword, piercing into everyone's ears. It startled Chu Zhong, and also startled the three pursuers.
"Who is it?"
"Come out!"
Immediately after, a figure seemed to walk out of the void, and appeared in front of the three pursuers.
"Who are you?"
"A member of the Chu Sect," Chu Mu said indifferently.
"Fifth Refinement Exceptional Realm. Another one has come to court death."
"Junior Brother, hurry up and leave. I'll hold them off." Chu Zhong turned around and saw Chu Mu. When he heard Chu Mu's words, he was first delighted, but when he saw that Chu Mu's cultivation was only at the Fifth Refinement Exceptional Realm, his expression abruptly changed. His figure flashed and appeared beside Chu Mu, passing by him. At the same time, Chu Mu only felt that there was something extra in his hand. Before he had time to check, Chu Zhong raised his Sword Light, and attacked the three pursuers with tyrannical might.
Chu Mu couldn't help but smile at Chu Zhong's action.
Perhaps he had never met this person before, but it didn't stop them from being united as members of the Chu Sect.
Chu Zhong's cultivation was at the Great Sacred Venerable Realm, and his strength was at the Supreme Sacred Venerable Realm. The three pursuers all had the strength of Supreme Sacred Venerables, so Chu Zhong wasn't their match at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to escape. But now, he had to stop the three and let Chu Mu leave. The thing he stuffed into Chu Mu's hand was a fruit, the cause of their pursuit — the Ascending Dragon Fruit!
Chu Mu held the Ascending Dragon Fruit with one hand and drew his sword with the other. He swung his sword three times, and three Sword Light instantly pierced through the air and shot out.
The pursuers had just shattered Chu Zhong's sword light flood dragon, and sent Chu Zhong flying backward. Just as they were about to deliver the killing blow, a sword light flew toward them head-on. The sword light was extremely fast, extremely condensed, and soundless.
It was too fast, completely beyond their reaction time. They couldn't dodge or block it, and it pierced through their foreheads.
Three kills with one sword!
Chu Zhong, who had just adjusted himself and was about to attack again, was stunned.
"They're dead …" Chu Zhong's face was blank. The three pursuers who had chased him and forced him to flee had died just like that. They were killed.
After a while, Chu Zhong reacted and accepted the fact. He also knew that this person from the Chu Sect whom he had never met before was no small matter.
"Senior Brother, I'm Chu Zhong." Chu Zhong flew over and called Chu Mu senior brother.
"Senior Brother Chu Mu, I'm Chu Mu. You can call me Junior Brother." Chu Mu smiled and returned the fruit to Chu Zhong. "I only joined the Chu Sect three years ago."
The titles of senior and junior brothers in the Chu Sect were actually just symbolic titles. It didn't mean anything, and it wasn't fixed. Generally speaking, strength was respected. Those who were stronger would be called Senior Brother, and those who were weaker would be called Junior Brother. But it wasn't absolute. There were also divisions based on who joined the Chu Sect. In short, everything depended on oneself.
"So it's Senior Brother Chu Mu." Chu Zhong put away the Ascending Dragon Fruit. "Senior Brother Chu Mu is only at the Fifth Refinement of the Exceptional Realm, but you were able to kill three Supreme Sacred Venerables. You must be a prodigy."
In Chu Zhong's opinion, a prodigy was already very impressive. As for an exceptional prodigy, Chu Huangji was the only one in the entire Chu Sect. He didn't dare to think of a second one. He had been in this small world for more than three years, so he didn't know about Chu Mu.
Since Chu Zhong said so, Chu Mu wouldn't explain anything.
"Why was Senior Brother Chu Zhong chased?" Chu Mu asked casually.
"It's because of the Ascending Dragon Fruit." Chu Zhong laughed. He again displayed the Ascending Dragon Fruit in front of Chu Mu. It was completely brown in color and seemed to be a bit rough. It was covered in veins and had a faint fragrance. It was very alluring. Smelling it made one feel refreshed and clear-headed.
Chu Mu had never heard of the Ascending Dragon Fruit before. However, from the smell, Chu Mu could more or less determine that it had something to do with the mental aspect.
"Senior Brother, what is the use of the Ascending Dragon Fruit?" Chu Mu still asked.
"The Ascending Dragon Fruit is a kind of spiritual fruit grown from the Ascending Dragon Vine. It only has one use, and that is to let the person's mental aspect enter a state of sublimation for a certain period of time. It's like a carp transforming into a dragon. Comprehending in this state will be two or three times more efficient than usual," Chu Zhong said. Hearing his words, Chu Mu's eyes immediately lit up.
Since he had obtained the power of origin beforehand, his cultivation method was more or less different from ordinary Exceptional Realm cultivators. Moreover, the Truth Seeking Technique was different from ordinary cultivators. Therefore, most of the pills and elixirs were useless to him. However, this Rising Dragon Fruit was useful because it was related to the spiritual level, comprehension, and so on.
"Senior Brother, where did you find the Ascending Dragon Fruit? Can you still find it? "Chu Mu hurriedly asked.
"I'm not sure, but I might be able to find it," Chu Zhong said.
"Senior Brother, please point the way." Chu Mu said. He was very interested in the Ascending Dragon Fruit. Although the biggest goal of this trip was the World Origin of this small world, Chu Mu was actually very clear that it was the most difficult thing to obtain. Not to mention other things, just finding it was a big problem. It was completely dependent on luck.
"There's no need to point the way. I'll take you there," Chu Zhong said.
"Okay."
The two didn't delay at all. Under Chu Zhong's lead, they quickly moved forward.
"Senior Brother Chu Mu, you've just arrived here, so you're not familiar with many things." While leading the way, Chu Zhong said, "In this small world, other than our Chu Sect, there are also disciples of three other sects. They are Iron-Dragon Sect, Xuanzhan Sect, and Hundred Weapons Sect. These three sects are all overlord-level forces, one level higher than our Chu Sect. The three people who chased after me just now were disciples of Hundred Weapons Sect."
"This small world has been discovered for a few years now. Thus, most of the spiritual medicines and resources have been excavated. The rest are either hidden resources or dangerous areas."
Among the people who entered this small world, there were Exceptional Realm cultivators and Great Emperor cultivators. Exceptional Realm cultivators had their own places to go, and Great Emperor cultivators had their own places to go. Some things were precious treasures to Exceptional Realm cultivators, but they were useless to Great Emperor cultivators. Treasures that were suitable for both Exceptional Realm and Great Emperor cultivators were too rare.
Therefore, Exceptional Realm cultivators wouldn't risk entering areas that only Great Emperor cultivators dared to enter, and Great Emperor cultivators wouldn't go to areas that Exceptional Realm cultivators should go to. It would be a waste of time and energy.
After flying for about half a day, Chu Mu found that the scenery in front of him had changed. It wasn't as green and lush as before. Instead, it was filled with countless stones and dead trees. Above the stones and dead trees were dark brown vines. Those vines were more than ten miles long, while the short ones were hundreds of meters long. The thick ones were two or three times thicker than a big bucket, while the thin ones were as thin as a person's thigh.
However, no matter how thick or thin they were, these vines all had one thing in common, which was that they meandered like a dragon entrenched on the ground.
"Senior Brother, that's the Rising Dragon Vine." Chu Zhong pointed at the endless vines below him.
"So many?" Chu Mu was surprised.
The Rising Dragon Fruit should be a very precious item. Otherwise, Chu Mu wouldn't have been hunted down and almost died because of one Rising Dragon Fruit. However, there were so many Rising Dragon Vines in front of him, which was completely out of Chu Mu's expectations.
"There are many Rising Dragon Vines, but only a few can bear fruit." Chu Zhong said, "Moreover, the duration of each Rising Dragon Fruit is very short, so it's more useful to prepare a few more."
Looking from afar, they could see that the Rising Dragon Vines were very vast. They couldn't see the end of it, and there were many figures in it.
"Senior Brother, let's search together. Whoever finds it first gets to keep it. What do you think?" Chu Zhong said.
"Okay." After Chu Mu agreed, the two of them quickly landed and started searching carefully.
"Senior Brother, the Rising Dragon Fruit has a special characteristic. When one is still on the Rising Dragon Vine, they can't see it with their divine sense. They can only rely on their eyes." Chu Zhong said. This increased the difficulty of finding the Rising Dragon Fruit. "There's another point. Some Rising Dragon Vines have vine snakes entrenched on them. These vine snakes are very poisonous. Even half-step Great Sovereigns would find it hard to bear if they were bitten. Senior Brother, you must be very careful."
The place where Chu Mu and Chu Zhong landed was a Rising Dragon Vine that stretched for more than ten thousand meters. The two of them separated to two sides, their eyes sharp as they searched carefully.
The leaves of the Rising Dragon Vines varied in size. The big ones were as big as millstones, and the small ones were as big as palms. The leaves were dark green, and the veins on them looked like wriggling pythons, vivid and lifelike.
Under the cover of the dense vines and countless leaves, it was difficult for Yang Kai's Spiritual Energy to display its full potential, so finding the Ascending Dragon Fruits was not an easy task. Some people had worked hard for more than ten days without any results, this was a common occurrence.
For example, Chu Zhong searched for a whole month before he found one. It was precisely because it was so difficult and precious that he was chased by the three people from the Hundred Weapons Faction.
