"He actually escaped into the middle zone." Old Ancestor Hei Ming chased relentlessly. After distinguishing the aura and making an accurate judgment, he finally reached the edge of the middle zone and sneered.
The middle zone's Nether Qi was much denser and purer than the low zone. If a Great Emperor Realm cultivator entered the middle zone and didn't have a suitable treasure to resist the Nether Qi, he would be corroded by the Nether Qi and die, turning into a Nether Corpse Martial Artist.
Of course, even if one had a suitable treasure to resist the corrosion of the middle zone, the Nether Qi wasn't the only danger. There were also Sovereign Realm Nether Beasts and Sovereign Realm Nether Corpse Martial Artists.
"No, I have to find him as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he turns into a Nether Corpse Martial Artist or gets eaten by a Nether Beast, all my efforts will be in vain." Old Ancestor Hei Ming thought to himself and entered the middle zone. As he could absorb the Nether Qi to cultivate, he wasn't afraid of the corrosion of the middle zone. Of course, with his current cultivation, he would be in danger if he entered the high zone. The Nether Qi in the high zone was too pure and he couldn't completely refine it.
… …
The effect of the Dark Refining Pellet lasted for a month. In other words, Chu Mu could refine 30% of the Nether Qi in his body in a month's time. The remaining 70% had to be endured by himself.
Time was tight. Chu Mu had no choice but to find a relatively safe place to settle down. Then, he quickly set up a seal. This seal didn't have much defensive power. Its main purpose was to isolate the aura and warn him.
He could only hope that his luck was good.
Sitting down cross-legged, Chu Mu restrained his aura and began to integrate the cultivation technique.
He had already grasped the essence of the Nameless Divine Art and saved a lot of time. It wasn't difficult to integrate the essence into the Truth Seeking Technique. At the very least, Chu Mu had an incomparable understanding of the Truth Seeking Technique. This made it easier for him.
The Nether Qi in the middle zone was shockingly powerful. Even though it was weakened by 30%, the remaining 70% still brought a lot of trouble to Chu Mu. As time passed, the color of his skin started to change bit by bit. The original rosy luster slowly lost its luster and became dull and greyish white. Gradually, it became a little dry and wrinkles started to appear on his skin.
The appearance of the human body was related to the internal workings of the human body. When there was an abnormality, it meant that there was a problem inside the human body.
The corrosion of the Nether Qi was too terrifying. Chu Mu's qi and blood gradually declined, affecting his physique. His yuan energy remained dormant in his dantian, as he was worried that the aura he emitted would attract the nether beasts or Underworld Corpse Warriors. Thus, he was also eroded by the Nether Qi. His spiritual world was covered by strands of grey aura, which were constantly attacking the origin of the Sword Way of the Heavens at the center of his spiritual world.
The origin of the Sword Way of the Heavens was incomparably mysterious, and the gray aura could not be damaged in the slightest.
His Qi and blood were getting weaker and weaker, and his skin was becoming more and more grayish and dry. His long black hair was also gradually turning grayish white, and the originally soft luster had also become dull and dry.
It was as if he had turned from a young man in his twenties into an old man with one foot in the grave.
However, Chu Mu did not seem to feel anything, and continued to integrate the essence of the Nameless Art into the Truth Seeking Technique.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. In terms of appearance, Chu Mu had completely changed. Not only was he old, but he also looked like he had been tortured by illness for most of his life.
In these three days, Ancestor Hei Ming was also constantly searching for Chu Mu's traces.
On the fourth day, just as Chu Mu's body was about to dry up, his body shook unconsciously and his eyes opened. His turbid eyes were dim, but very quickly, a ray of light appeared, as if light had streaked across the sky and dispelled the darkness.
"Finally, the integration is complete." Chu Mu muttered to himself, and was immediately shocked. He realized that his voice was dry and dry, and he also realized that his body was almost decaying. His qi and blood had declined to the extreme, and his yuan energy was also corroded and polluted. Only the origin of the Sword Way of the Heavens was not seriously damaged.
"Fortunately, the integration is finally complete. If this continued for another day, my body would have completely decayed." Chu Mu was still afraid.
He had overestimated his resistance, and also underestimated the power of the Underworld Qi in the middle zone of the Underworld. He was even more glad that he had taken ten Underworld Refining Pills in one go, and with the effect of the Underworld Jade Pendant, he had resisted thirty percent of the Underworld Qi's corrosion. Otherwise, if it was a hundred percent of the Underworld Qi's corrosion, his body would probably have decayed by now.
The body was a burden, and if the body decayed, it was equivalent to being completely finished in this place.
As this thought flashed through his mind, he suppressed that trace of joy. Chu Mu activated the new Truth Seeking Technique. As soon as the Truth Seeking Technique was activated, the Underworld Qi that had corroded his body was immediately driven, and circulated along his almost decaying body, and was refined bit by bit.
The refined Underworld Qi transformed into the purest Yuan Qi, and started to nourish Chu Mu's body. Not only did his almost decaying body stop decaying, it even started to recover bit by bit.
The Truth Seeking Technique was activated faster and faster, and the Great Truth Wheel also spun faster and faster. The speed of absorbing Underworld Qi also increased, and Chu Mu's body started to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His blood was abundant, and his flesh and blood were filled. His skin quickly returned to its original color, becoming ruddy and glossy.
One day later, Chu Mu had completely recovered. The Underworld Qi was no longer able to harm him in the slightest.
"Since I can already absorb Underworld Qi, then I will use it to condense the All-heaven Underworld Sword, and use it to comprehend the origin of the Underworld." Chu Mu thought to himself.
In the previous battle with the Sovereign Realm expert of the Heavenly Nether Sect, Chu Mu had witnessed the strength of the origin of the Underworld, and he was rather tempted. If it was anyone else, unless they cultivated the techniques of the Heavenly Nether Sect, they would not be able to grasp the power of the origin of the Underworld. However, Chu Mu was different. His All-heaven Sword Way could encompass all the mysteries of the origin of the Underworld.
The Underworld Qi in the middle zone was more than ten times denser and purer than the low zone. As Chu Mu continued to absorb, the Underworld Qi continued to accumulate in his body, and was then absorbed by the All-heaven Swords. His body was not damaged at all.
Traces of pure Underworld Qi gradually condensed in his body, and this was a good start.
On the third day, the pure Underworld Qi in the All-heaven Swords had accumulated to a certain extent, but there was still some distance before it could condense the All-heaven Underworld Sword.
On the fifth day, the pure Underworld Qi had accumulated by a lot. However, Chu Mu's heart suddenly shook, and he felt that danger was approaching. Without any hesitation, he immediately wiped away the remaining aura, and quickly left the place.
Not long after, a figure appeared. It was Old Ancestor Hei Ming.
"He's actually still alive." Old Ancestor Hei Ming was shocked when he felt the fluctuations of the seal that was left behind.
One had to know that even if he was in the middle zone, he would have to be careful. Otherwise, it was very likely that he would be killed. However, that person was only in the Great Emperor Realm, and he had to use two secret techniques to barely contend against him. However, the secret techniques could not be used continuously for a long time, and he could not be used continuously. With such strength, he might be able to run amok in the low zone, but it was undoubtedly very dangerous in the middle zone.
To be able to survive in the middle zone, he must be very lucky.
"It's best that you're alive. I still have a chance to capture you alive." Old Ancestor Hei Ming muttered to himself. He felt that the value of capturing Chu Mu alive was much greater than killing him. It was more than ten times more valuable. He still could not forget about Chu Mu's secret technique.
One had to know that a good secret technique could turn the situation around at a crucial moment, allowing him to survive and obtain even greater benefits.
Without the threat of the underworld qi, Chu Mu's speed became even faster. He tried his best to restrain his aura fluctuations to avoid attracting the underworld beasts and underworld corpse martial artists. Because this was the middle zone, the underworld beasts and underworld corpse martial artists were all at the Young Sovereign Realm. He, who did not dare to use the Human Dao True Secret, was no match for them.
After making a detour, Chu Mu planned to return to the low zone from another direction. At least with his current strength, he could run amok in the low zone. As for the pursuit of the Young Sovereign Realm experts of the Heaven Nether Sect, he would take one step at a time.
"If I can condense the All-heaven Nether Sword, my strength might not increase, but it will be able to resist the invasion of the underworld origin energy better." Chu Mu thought to himself.
After a period of time, Chu Mu did not feel any danger, so he stopped and continued to absorb the underworld qi, transforming it into pure underworld energy and storing it in his body. When he felt danger approaching, he would stop and leave.
After repeating this process for the tenth time, Chu Mu felt waves of pure underworld energy fluctuations in his body.
"Master, you are about to condense the All-heaven Nether Sword." Little Tian's voice sounded.
"Let's condense it." Chu Mu said.
"Okay." Little Tian was very happy.
Chu Mu felt that the pure underworld energy within the All-heaven Sword had undergone a qualitative change.
Not long after, Chu Mu knew that the All-heaven Nether Sword had been successfully condensed. With a thought, a completely gray sword appeared in his hand, emitting pure yin energy fluctuations.
All-heaven Nether Sword, Great Emperor Low Rank.
"If I can obtain an underworld origin stone or an underworld origin crystal, I can quickly upgrade the All-heaven Nether Sword." Chu Mu thought to himself, "Otherwise, I can only slowly upgrade it by absorbing underworld qi."
However, an underworld origin stone seemed to be very difficult to find. At least, Chu Mu had not found one. He did not even find one in the interspatial ring of the Tian Ming Seven Sons, let alone an underworld origin crystal that was better than an underworld origin stone. He could only rely on luck.
"I wonder if an underworld stone is effective?" Chu Mu suddenly had a thought.
All along, he had been using source stones or source crystals to condense All-heavens Swords and improve All-heavens Swords. His thinking was also affected and limited to Underworld Source Stones and Underworld Source Crystals. Now that he suddenly thought of Underworld Stones, Chu Mu quickly took out one to try.
An underworld stone was often used to refine one's strength and increase one's spirit. At Chu Mu's level, at least an extreme grade underworld stone was effective for him. But now, he wanted to use it to refine the All-heaven Nether Sword.
