Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At the foot of a mountain outside the Great Kun Sword Residence, balls of light flickered. One figure after another appeared out of thin air. Soon, there were more than a thousand of them.
"We're out?" Many people had blank looks on their faces.
"Huh … this is no longer the Blood Demon Realm."
"This is the Sword Residence. This is the foot of the mountain outside the Inner Residence."
Someone reacted and immediately shouted.
Everyone came to their senses and realized that they had unknowingly left the Blood Demon Realm and returned to the foot of the mountain outside the Inner Residence. It was also the place where they had entered the Blood Demon Realm.
"I remember now. There seems to be a record in the ancient books. The Blood Demon Realm is a very magical Void Realm. It is different from other Void Realms. The time it opens is not fixed, but it can only be entered for a month at a time. Once the time is up, the Blood Demon Realm will repel you and send you back to the place where you entered the Blood Demon Realm, "someone said in realization.
The others nodded and said that they had read or heard of such a saying. They had just forgotten about it for a while.
Chu Mu was also teleported out. He quickly came to his senses and looked around. Only then did he realize where he was. He could not help but be surprised by the wonders of the Blood Demon Realm. At the same time, he glanced around and saw Han Ruoxue not far away.
The people who were teleported out all had traces of killing intent. However, these killing intents were like rootless duckweed and smoke, quickly fading away.
"Chu Mu …" A shout sounded. A figure quickly moved and appeared beside Chu Mu. "I knew you were still alive."
"I'm glad you're alive too." Chu Mu looked at Liang Haishan and smiled. Liang Haishan looked rather miserable. However, it was already very good that he could survive in a place like the Blood Demon Realm. No matter how miserable he looked, it was still acceptable.
"Fortunately, I ran into Senior Brother Situ Kou's team. Otherwise, I wouldn't have survived." Liang Haishan smiled. Then, he asked curiously, "How did you escape the pursuit of that four-stripe mutated little Blood Demon?"
"I was lucky enough to be saved," Chu Mu said with a smile. He did not say who saved him.
"Saved?" Liang Haishan was stunned. His mind raced as if he was trying to figure out who had the ability to kill the four-stripe mutated little Blood Demon. "Could it be …"
Before he could say anything, someone beside him yelled anxiously, "Let's go to the Hundred Affair Hall. I got dozens of Blood Demon Cores this time. They can be exchanged for thousands of credits."
"Only a few dozen. I got more than a hundred. I can exchange them for more than ten thousand credits."
"Let's go," Chu Mu said.
"Oh … alright." Liang Haishan nodded as he came to a realization.
…
As they walked towards Astral-9's Hundred Affair Hall, Chu Mu looked at the people around him. There weren't as many people as there had been before they'd entered. At least half of them were gone.
In other words, of the thousands of students who had entered the Blood Demon Realm, more than a thousand had died. This was probably the first time in many years that the Inner Academy had suffered such a loss.
However, the path of a swordsman was filled with life and death. It was a mixture of blood and fire. Death was not uncommon.
The remaining thousand or so students were divided into the ten academies of the Inner Academy. On average, each academy only had one or two hundred people.
More than a hundred people rushed towards Astral-9's Hundred Affair Hall.
"It's Senior Han!"
"Senior Han, after you."
Dressed in white, Han Ruoxue's expression was cold. She stood at the front and handed over the Blood Demon Cores to the Hundred Affair Hall's deacons.
The Hundred Affair Hall had sent three deacons to count the Blood Demon Cores.
Han Ruoxue did not say a word as she continuously took out Blood Demon Cores from her low-grade spatial bracelet. The three deacons began counting the Blood Demon Cores as she took them out.
Chu Mu noticed that Han Ruoxue was wearing a black, iron-colored spatial bracelet on each of her hands.
"One hundred and thirty one-striped Blood Demon Cores, two hundred and sixty two-striped Blood Demon Cores, three hundred and seventy three-striped Blood Demon Cores …"
After the deacon's announcement, Han Ruoxue's expression was still cold. However, the students behind her all began to exclaim.
"As expected of Senior Han. She's ranked fifty-third on the Bronze Sword List."
"Two hundred and eighty four-striped Blood Demon Cores, thirty-two five-striped Blood Demon Cores, and one four-striped mutated Blood Demon Core."
"Han Ruoxue, are you sure you want to exchange all of these Blood Demon Cores for credits?" the deacon confirmed.
"Yes." Han Ruoxue nodded.
"These blood demon cores will give you a total of 39,000 credits. Because a mutated blood demon core is ten times more valuable than an ordinary blood demon core, a four-striped mutated blood demon core is ten times more valuable than an ordinary five-striped blood demon core," said the deacon. He took Han Ruoxue's identity sword token and transferred 39,000 credits to her.
Han Ruoxue put away her identity token and turned to leave, leaving behind countless exclamations and adoration.
"There's actually 39,000 credits." Chu Mu was also shocked, but when he thought about Han Ruoxue's terrifying strength, he understood. If he had that kind of strength, he could have done even better.
After Han Ruoxue left, a second person immediately walked to the table and quickly placed the bag on his back on the table.
This time, most of the inner palace students who had entered the Blood Demon Realm were at the initial or initial stages of the Qi Transformation Realm. A few of them were Dacheng, and there were very few students who had completed the Qi Transformation Realm. In all of Astral-9, aside from Han Ruoxue, there were only three or four who had completed the Qi Transformation Realm.
However, aside from Han Ruoxue, the few students who had completed the Qi Transformation Realm had only received a few hundred thousand credits, which was less than 200,000.
"Chu Mu, how many Blood Demon Cores did you get?" Liang Haishan suddenly asked.
"Not that many," Chu Mu replied.
"I didn't get that many either. Less than a hundred," Liang Haishan said. "With your strength, you should have gotten more than me."
Chu Mu smiled but didn't give a specific number. Even now, he didn't know how many Blood Demon Cores he had in his spatial bracelet.
Some students didn't leave after exchanging their credits, but instead stood to the side and watched.
One student after another exchanged their credits, and after a few dozen, it was finally Liang Haishan's turn.
Liang Haishan looked excited. He placed the bag on the table and opened it, revealing the Blood Demon Cores to the attendants.
"Eighty-three one-striped Blood Demon Cores and thirty-six two-striped Blood Demon Cores. Do you want to exchange them all?" the attendant asked after checking.
"Yes, I'll exchange them all." Liang Haishan nodded vigorously. Why would he keep them if he didn't exchange them?
"That's a total of 15,500 credits," the attendant said.
"15,500 credits. Not bad. It can be considered as credits that can only be obtained after one year and three months." Liang Haishan turned and walked to Chu Mu's side. He smiled and said, "Most importantly, in the Blood Demon Realm, my swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds because of your guidance. If I were to fight Zhuang Tong with pure swordsmanship now, I'd definitely be able to defeat him within a hundred moves."
Chu Mu nodded and walked to the table. It was his turn now.
He took out the Blood Demon Cores from the spatial bracelet on his left wrist.
"He has a spatial bracelet!" Immediately, a low cry came from behind and beside him.
"A Qi Transformation Stage student actually has a spatial bracelet. How incredible."
After a month of slaughter in the Blood Demon Realm, Chu Mu's Xiantian sword Qi had stabilized. Although he hadn't cultivated any profound level techniques, no one thought that Chu Mu was just a rookie who had just entered the Qi Transformation Stage.
Indeed, blood and fire were the best ways for a swordsman to grow.
"A Qi Transformation Stage student has a spatial bracelet. This person must have a powerful background. We can't afford to offend him," someone thought.
"A Qi Transformation Stage student has a spatial bracelet. Why doesn't Dacheng have a spatial bracelet now that I'm a Qi Transformation Stage student? I must find a way to make his spatial bracelet mine." Someone else thought.
The three attendants in front of Chu Mu were stunned. They couldn't hide the shock in their eyes because what they saw was different from what the other students saw.
Although the other students knew that Chu Mu had a spatial wristband, it was covered by his sleeves and they thought it was a low rank spatial wristband. However, the three attendants saw that it wasn't a low rank spatial wristband. The color was a middle rank spatial wristband.
A Qi Transformation Stage student who had a low-grade spatial bracelet could be said to have a powerful background. However, a mid-grade spatial bracelet couldn't be explained by a powerful background. They were used to seeing many members of the royal family. It was already amazing for a Qi Transformation Stage student to have a low-grade spatial bracelet.
Chu Mu ignored them and continued to take out Blood Demon Nuclei from his spatial bracelet. He also wanted to know how many Blood Demon Nuclei he had.
The three attendants looked at each other and were shocked again. They hurriedly counted.
The spectating students were also shocked.
"This is not a lot?" Liang Haishan smiled bitterly. Up until now, Chu Mu had taken out more than 300 Blood Demon Nuclei. It seemed that he was still taking out more.
"It's already more than 500, right? Even if they're all one-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei, this is still too many … "
"Compared to him, I'm just a piece of trash."
"No more," Chu Mu said indifferently as he stopped. However, there was already a large pile of Blood Demon Nuclei in front of him.
"750 one-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei, 920 two-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei, 160 three-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei, 10 four-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei, and one two-stripe mutated Blood Demon Nucleus …" As the attendant spoke, he felt that his mouth was very dry.
The nearby students were all dumbfounded. Although there were no five-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei, there were so many one-stripe and two-stripe Blood Demon Nuclei that it was far more than the others. Even Senior Sister Han couldn't compare.
"Are you sure you want to exchange them all for credits?" the attendant asked again. He couldn't hide the surprise on his face.
"Yes." Chu Mu nodded.
"If you exchange all these Blood Demon Nuclei, you'll get a total of 314,000 credits …" The attendant swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with difficulty.
"314,000 credits …" The students were all at a loss. Wasn't this number even higher than Senior Sister Han's?
Given Senior Sister Han's strength, it was normal for her to get more than 300,000 credits. However, was it normal for a Qi Transformation Swordsman to get so many credits, even more than Senior Sister Han?
Whether it was normal or not, Chu Mu's 314,000 credits were beyond his expectations. With these credits, not only could he exchange them for the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Prime, but he could also look at other things. (To be continued.
