Every grain of golden sand seemed to contain an incomparably sharp Sword Qi. The aura emanated, and Chu Mu felt as if he were being pierced by countless sharp swords.
Not only did Chu Mu have this feeling, but the other Great Emperors also had this feeling. No one knew why such a change had occurred in the originally deathly silent desert.
"Welcome to God's relic. From now on, you are all Trial Takers." A faintly discernible voice rang out from the void and instantly entered everyone's ears. Everyone unconsciously raised their heads to look, but all they could see was a sky filled with golden light.
"Trial Takers, I will only say this once. Listen carefully," the faintly discernible voice said again. The ethereal voice sounded again. "This is the Golden Light Desert, the first level of God's relic. It contains metal element treasures, but it also contains life and death dangers. If you want to enter the next level, you need to find the corresponding key. The key is called the Golden Mystical Sand."
After speaking of the Golden Mystical Sand, the faintly discernible voice suddenly fell silent as if it had never sounded.
"Key... Golden Mystical Sand?" Chu Mu muttered in a low voice. His mind raced, but in a situation where he lacked sufficient information, he could not deduce what the Golden Mystical Sand was. He could only try his luck. After all, with the Golden Mystical Sand, if he worked hard to find it, he would be able to find it after spending some time.
Moreover, didn't the voice say that there were metal element treasures in the Great Golden Desert? If he could find more metal element treasures, perhaps it would help him comprehend the Great Path of Metal and improve the Golden Swords of the Heavens.
Thinking of this, Chu Mu was suddenly filled with motivation. No matter what, this was God's relic. The treasures here would definitely be good.
He sped up a little. He was two meters away from the desert, flying at a low altitude. The sharp aura emanating from below constantly stimulated Chu Mu.
Suddenly, a bone chilling feeling caused Chu Mu's expression to greatly change. An incomparably strong sense of danger instantly exploded in the depths of his mind. His entire body's muscles tensed up. At the same time, an incomparably sharp golden ray of light flew out from under the golden sand. It was a ruthless attack that was incomparably fierce and merciless. It completely wanted to kill Chu Mu.
At the most crucial moment, Chu Mu's subconscious mind, which had been tempered countless times and walked on the edge of life and death countless times, erupted. Instinctively, he executed the third layer of the World's End Near at Hand Technique. Seizing the time difference of a breath, he narrowly avoided the piercing of the golden light. Moreover, his eyes vaguely caught the trace of the golden light. It seemed to be a long whip, with sections and sharp barbs at the end.
Without waiting for Chu Mu to think carefully, another two golden lights broke through the golden sand and fiercely blasted towards Chu Mu. The speed was only slightly slower than the previous attack, but it was different. It slashed horizontally at his waist. Chu Mu's vision captured it even more clearly. The two golden lights were two large golden pincers.
With the two swords in his hands, he instantly slashed out and collided with the two large pincers. The tyrannical force of the impact almost caused the two swords to fly out of his hands. Fortunately, he loosened his hands in time to dissipate the force of the impact and took advantage of the momentum to retreat. Only then did he regain his grip on the two swords.
The owner of the tail and pincers also broke through the golden sand and appeared in front of Chu Mu. It was a huge scorpion, a huge golden scorpion that seemed to be cast from gold. Not counting the tail and pincers, just its body alone was five meters long. The tail was more than four meters long, and the pincers were more than one meter long.
From this Giant Golden Scorpion, Chu Mu unexpectedly couldn't feel the slightest bit of aura. It was as if it wasn't alive. If he couldn't feel its aura, he wouldn't be able to determine the Giant Golden Scorpion's strength. He wouldn't be able to detect any signs of the opponent's attacks. This greatly affected his perception. Moreover, its color was the exact same color as the desert, severely affecting his vision.
The color was the same as the environment, and he couldn't sense any aura fluctuations. He also couldn't determine its strength. This scorpion was even more of an assassin than an assassin.
Chu Mu held his swords with both hands. With the cooperation of Little Tian, the Celestial Five Elements Swords quickly condensed. He had to use his true strength to deal with this huge golden scorpion.
After the huge golden scorpion appeared, it didn't pause for long and immediately launched a second attack.
The four-meter-long tail tore through the air once more. It was even faster than the first time, and its color was also golden. To a certain extent, it clearly affected Chu Mu's vision.
Chu Mu simply closed his eyes and raised his perception to the limit. It covered the entire area, allowing him to capture any movement.
Even though the huge golden scorpion didn't have any aura fluctuations, its attacks would cause slight fluctuations. Chu Mu was able to sense them and react accordingly. He quickly dodged the tail attack, and the five swords shone with five different colors as they instantly struck down, all of them attacking the huge golden scorpion.
The huge golden scorpion had a clear target, and all five swords hit it. What surprised Chu Mu was that the five swords actually couldn't break through the scorpion's shell. Instead, they were bounced back, and the scorpion wasn't damaged at all.
"Powerful strength, shocking defense …" Chu Mu was inwardly shocked. Just thinking about it made his scalp go numb. The color was the same as the environment. This was a natural protective color. There wasn't the slightest bit of aura fluctuation. Powerful strength and shocking defense. Such an opponent's strength was too terrifying.
Wind Sword Attack!
Thunder Sword Attack!
Even though Chu Mu was very surprised, his hands didn't slow down. He immediately performed Sword Ten. The blue and purple Sword Light formed a cross, attacking the huge golden scorpion.
The cross Sword Light instantly shattered upon hitting the huge golden scorpion's body, leaving behind two wounds. However, even though those wounds were clear, they still couldn't break through the scorpion's shell and injure it.
The huge golden scorpion's tail cooperated with its pincers and attacked Chu Mu again. Its speed was fast, its strength was tyrannical, and its power was shocking.
Chu Mu's body moved, alternating between World's End Near at Hand and Four Directions Truth Seeking Steps, dodging the attacks of the huge golden scorpion. The Five Elemental Swords each performed Sword Ten to attack the wounds on the scorpion's body.
After being injured again and again, the huge golden scorpion seemed to have realized the danger. Its legs moved continuously, and it quickly dove into the golden sand, disappearing.
Chu Mu floated two meters above the golden sand, holding the swords with both hands. The Five Elemental Swords revolved around him, and he didn't dare to relax.
The huge golden scorpion could appear at any time.
It was like a competition of patience, to see who could hold it in longer. Time passed slowly, and this feeling was a kind of torture.
Chu Mu suddenly had an idea. If he was so vigilant, perhaps the huge golden scorpion wouldn't appear so easily. If that was the case, then he would create an opening to confuse the opponent.
Thinking of this, Chu Mu relaxed. But this was only a facade, and it was fake.
As expected, after three breaths of time, the huge golden scorpion attacked again, aiming for Chu Mu. Chu Mu pretended to be caught off guard, and dodged awkwardly. The huge golden scorpion also rushed out of the golden sand, attacking Chu Mu simultaneously.
"Eleventh Sword, Wind and Thunder Sword!"
Chu Mu grasped the opportunity and roared. The Heavenly Wind Sword and Heavenly Thunder Sword in his hands instantly combined, fusing into a long sword with one side green and one side purple. He held it tightly in his hands, raised it high, and slashed it down again.
Green and purple intersected, and the cyclone and electric arc merged. It seemed to cut and slash at the same time, and it instantly attacked the huge golden scorpion.
In terms of power, the Wind and Thunder Sword was not as strong as the Five Elements Sword, but it was clearly stronger than the Tenth Sword. The power of the Great Dao of Wind and Thunder surged, directly attacking the wound on the huge golden scorpion's body. The tough outer shell was immediately cut open by the Wind and Thunder Sword.
This sword truly injured the huge golden scorpion. Golden blood spurted out. Because of the intense pain, the huge golden scorpion's body trembled, and it let out a strange cry.
This was a good opportunity, and Chu Mu would not let it go. The Five Elements Sword struck again.
Metal Sword!
Wood Sword!
Water Sword!
Fire Sword!
Earth Sword!
Among the five swords, the Fire Sword was the most powerful. It directly pierced through the wound created by the Wind and Thunder Sword, piercing through the body of the huge golden scorpion. After five swords, the huge golden scorpion was finally killed.
After the golden scorpion died, its tail and pincers fell off, softly falling onto the golden sand. It slowly melted and sank into the sand, disappearing without a trace. All that was left was a fist-sized golden light that gave off a wave of Gold energy.
Chu Mu stretched out his hand, and the golden light flew into his hand. The wave of golden energy became clearer.
"Master, this light contains pure energy. It's not the Great Dao of Gold, nor is it the Origin of Gold. However, it's comparable to the Origin of Gold. It's beneficial to the upgrade of the All-Heavens Golden Swords." Little Tian's tender voice sounded.
"Absorb it." Chu Mu said.
"Okay." Little Tian agreed happily.
Under Little Tian's control, the golden light was immediately absorbed. It was an extremely pure accumulation of golden energy. It was quickly absorbed, and not a single drop was left. Chu Mu could also see that the color of the All-Heavens Golden Swords was becoming purer and brighter.
"Master, as long as there's another ball of golden energy like this, the All-Heavens Golden Swords will be able to upgrade to the Mid Great Emperor level." Little Tian said happily. The upgrade of the All-Heavens Golden Swords was equivalent to an upgrade of its spirituality.
Hearing Little Tian's words, Chu Mu was also very happy.
If he relied on his own comprehension to upgrade the All-Heavens Golden Swords, it would be very difficult. It would undoubtedly take a very long time, and it would definitely take a lot of time and effort.
And now, he had a better method to raise the grade of the All Heavens Sword without any side effects. Then, he could passively raise the profundities of the All Heavens Sword Way and combine it with his own understanding. The effect would undoubtedly be better.
"Could it be that the golden energy is the Metal Element treasure that the voice spoke of?" Chu Mu guessed.
"Whether it is or not, I have to obtain as much as I can to upgrade the All-Heavens Golden Swords."
The reason why the Fire Sword of the All-Heavens Fire Sword was stronger was because the All-Heavens Fire Sword was a Mid Great Emperor level sword.
