The Star Beasts charged forward without any fear of death. The attacks of the Third Step Great Emperors arrived instantly. As they collided, shocking explosions resounded across the heavens and the earth.
Light radiated in all directions. A portion of the Star Beasts were torn apart or smashed into pieces under the powerful attacks. However, there were still a portion of Star Beasts that endured the powerful attacks and charged forward. Their bodies were riddled with injuries that were so deep that their bones could be seen. However, they did not seem to be affected. Moreover, they continued to absorb the dense starlight rays to recover rapidly. The speed of their recovery was despairing.
The Third Step Great Emperors did not only attack once. They attacked again and again, trying their best to kill the Star Beasts. At the very least, they wanted to injure the Star Beasts severely so that they would lose most of their fighting strength.
However, the Star Beasts were not afraid of death. They charged forward. When the portion at the front died, the portion at the back immediately took their place. They did not stop charging forward as long as they were alive.
After killing a few waves of Star Beasts, the army of Star Beasts at the back continued to charge forward and clashed with the Great Emperors. The real battle had begun.
Rumbling sounds could be heard. Zhen Tian shook the ground as the various Great Emperors attacked the Star Beasts.
The Star Beasts charged forward like a tidal wave. However, the Great Emperors of the various races were unable to do so as they were not an army or a soldier. They were either used to being alone or working in small groups. Now that things had happened so suddenly, they did not have the time to train their teamwork. They could only unleash their own strength and try their best to kill the Star Beasts.
However, since they were able to cultivate to this stage, their intelligence was not bad. They knew that even if they took action in advance, their advantage would be very small. Hence, they had to split up the Star Beast Army and reduce the size of the attack. Only then would it be more beneficial for them to unleash their strength.
With everyone's hard work and after paying a certain price, they finally split up the Star Beast Army. After splitting up the Star Beast Army, the momentum of the Star Beast Army's charge was greatly reduced.
"Kill!"
Battle cries and shouts could be heard everywhere as powerful auras surged violently. Countless rays of starlight entered the bodies of the Star Beasts and the Great Emperors.
Chu Mu could feel numerous rays of starlight entering his body, attempting to corrode and destroy his body. However, when they were struck by the power of the Grand True Wheel, they were all dispersed. The impurities and harmful parts were all expelled while the beneficial parts were absorbed by the Myriad Heavens Starry Swords in his body, gradually increasing the power of the swords.
There was one difference between the Celestial Swords and the other Celestial Swords, and that was that the Celestial Swords contained the power of the Great Path of the Stars, while the other Celestial Swords contained the power of the Source. There was a difference, but it was undeniable that the Celestial Swords still possessed sufficient power.
However, at this moment, Chu Mu didn't use the Celestial Swords. Instead, he used the Celestial Swords in his right hand and the Celestial Swords in his left hand.
Facing the Star Beasts, Chu Mu wasn't afraid at all. Both of his swords were like swallows spreading their wings as they flew past in an instant. Two rays of Sword Light were parallel to each other. As they flickered, they intersected and turned into a cross. In an instant, five Star Beasts were sliced apart and died instantly.
It was true that the Star Beasts possessed astonishing self-healing abilities. However, after their bodies were sliced apart, they died quickly. This was their unique characteristic.
The ones charging at the moment were all soldier class Star Beasts. When the general class Star Beasts arrived, they didn't care about the crowd. Naturally, there would be Sovereigns to deal with them. The stronger the Star Beast, the fewer there would be.
The soldier class Star Beasts were divided into low class, middle class, and high class. Within each class, there were also low class, middle class, high class, peak class, and extreme class. Killing a low class low-class Star Beast would give one merit point, killing a low class mid-class Star Beast would give two merit points, and so on. Killing a low class extreme class Star Beast would give five merit points.
Reaching the middle class low-class Star Beast would give eleven merit points, and each sub-class would give one merit point. In other words, killing an extreme class extreme class Star Beast would give fifteen merit points.
Killing a high class low-class Star Beast would give twenty-one merit points, and an extreme class extreme class Star Beast would give twenty-five merit points.
Under the Star Tide, high class low stage Star Beasts' strength would increase by at least thirty percent. The originally powerful Star Beasts would become even more powerful. Although Chu Mu had the confidence to kill them, he would need a certain amount of time. In such an environment, there probably wouldn't be enough time. Therefore, Chu Mu set his sights on low and middle stage Star Beasts.
Even if the low class and middle class Star Beasts' strength increased by thirty percent, they wouldn't be able to reach the level of a high class Star Beast. They wouldn't be a match for Chu Mu at all. He could kill them easily without using his full strength. However, there were many Star Beasts charging at him fearlessly. In such a situation, Chu Mu still had to be vigilant.
Raising his perception to the maximum, everything in the surroundings was within his grasp. Unless he was surrounded by countless Star Beasts, it would be difficult for Chu Mu to be surrounded and fall into a dangerous situation.
Chu Mu continued to attack and kill the Star Beasts. The might of the Heavenly Thunder Sword and Heavenly Wind Sword was astonishing. They pierced through and sliced through the Star Beasts. One after another, the Star Beasts died under Chu Mu's sword.
"Save me!" A First Step Great Emperor had just killed a low-level Star Beast when a mid-level Star Beast appeared from the side and clawed at him with its sharp claws. Due to the difference in strength, the First Step Great Emperor couldn't dodge the attack at all. He could only watch as the sharp claws of the Star Beast grew bigger and bigger in front of his eyes.
Suddenly, just when he thought that he was going to die, a stunning and sharp sword light flashed before his eyes. The sharp claws that were tearing at him also stopped in mid-air and fell.
"Thank you for saving my life." At this step, the Great Emperor's entire body trembled and cold sweat covered his face. He felt as if he had just escaped from the brink of death and was trembling all over. However, he quickly turned to look at the owner of the sword light and shouted at the back of the figure that was quickly disappearing into the distance.
Although he didn't know who the other party was, the First Step Great Emperor still remembered the person's back.
After saving a person, Chu Mu didn't mind and continued to kill the Star Beasts.
In the seventh foothold, there was a huge black stone tablet. On the stone tablet, names appeared from top to bottom. After each name, there was a corresponding number. It was the merit points for killing the Star Beasts. Every merit point was increasing rapidly.
There were a total of a hundred names on the stone tablet. Each of them was shining with golden light and was very eye-catching. However, at this moment, no one was paying attention to them.
Chu Mu wasn't among the hundred names.
This was actually normal. One should know that there were many Third Step Great Emperors guarding the seventh foothold against the Star Beasts. There were more than a thousand of them. Most of them were stronger than Chu Mu. They could kill stronger Star Beasts and obtain more merit points.
Unknowingly, Chu Mu and the other Great Emperors had killed their way into the group of Star Beasts. The Sword Light flickered continuously. Every ray of light was sharp and decisive.
Chu Mu didn't check how many merit points he had. However, when he saw the battles of the other Third Step Great Emperors, he realized that his merit points couldn't be compared to theirs.
The Blood Sword Emperor, Dong Xue, whom he had met once, was not far away. The blood-red Sword Light flickered and turned into hundreds of rays, covering a radius of a few thousand meters. All the Star Beasts within the radius of a few thousand meters wailed in pain. Blood spurted out like a fountain. Under the impact, it looked like a huge blood-red flower that was blooming.
In an instant, all the Star Beasts within a few thousand meters died. The Blood Sword Emperor's merit points skyrocketed and his ranking on the Merit Tablet increased by a few places.
"So strong!" Chu Mu was shocked.
At least a few hundred Star Beasts were killed in an instant. The strength of the Blood Sword Emperor, Dong Xue, was too terrifying.
The other Third Step Great Emperors weren't as outstanding as the Blood Sword Emperor. After all, the Blood Sword Emperor was ranked eighteenth on the Earth Carnage Ranking.
"My strength can't be compared to the Blood Sword Emperor, but I can be faster." Chu Mu muttered to himself. He held the sword with both hands and shook it violently. A tyrannical power burst out and the Sword Light split. In an instant, a few Star Beasts were killed and cleared out.
After that, Chu Mu focused and a ray of golden light condensed around him. The light rapidly condensed and turned into a golden sharp sword. It was the All-Heavens Golden Sword.
A few Star Beasts pounced from all directions. Under the control of Chu Mu's Imperial God Sword Art, the All-Heavens Golden Sword instantly flew out and turned into a ray of golden light. It was extremely sharp and pierced through a few Star Beasts in an instant.
The All-Heavens Golden Sword was already extremely sharp. Under the enhancement of the Dao of Gold, it was even more shocking.
Immediately after, the second sword was condensed. It was the All-Heavens Wooden Sword.
With the help of Little Tian, Chu Mu quickly condensed the five All-Heavens Swords of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. They revolved around him and killed the Star Beasts.
Every All-Heavens Sword was imbued with a powerful Dao of Gold and was extremely tyrannical. Under the control of Chu Mu's Imperial God Sword Art, the All-Heavens Sword turned into five rays of light of different colors and shuttled back and forth. They covered a radius of a hundred meters and killed the Star Beasts below the high level easily. Even though the speed couldn't be compared to the Blood Sword Emperor, Dong Xue, and the others, it was much faster than a portion of the Third Step Great Emperors.
Chu Mu stood on the spot and allowed countless Star Beasts to charge at him. However, they were all killed by the five All-Heavens Swords that he controlled with the Imperial God Sword Art. There were Star Beasts that had reached the high level that broke through the All-Heavens Swords and charged at Chu Mu. Chu Mu slashed out with the swords in his hands.
Wind Sword Kill!
Lightning Sword Kill!
The green Sword Light and purple Sword Light pierced through the air and instantly tore apart the Star Beast that had reached the low level of the high level.
With the All-Heavens Wind Sword and All-Heavens Thunder Sword in his hands, he acted as the second killing move. The five All-Heavens Swords of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth were distributed in a radius of a hundred meters and acted as the first killing move. Under the coordination of the All-Heavens Swords, Chu Mu's merits increased rapidly.
