The chaotic universe was boundless, dark, and quiet. It contained endless mysteries.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling kept flying. After flying for a few more years, they saw a huge shadow in front of them. Judging from the outline, it seemed to be a mountain, a mountain floating in the chaotic universe.
A huge mountain appeared in the chaotic universe, which surprised Chu Mu and Xue Yinling. However, thinking about it carefully, the chaotic universe contained countless mysteries. It was not impossible. What surprised them even more was that such a huge mountain should have been visible from far away, but they had just seen it.
It was as if the mountain did not exist before and had suddenly appeared. In fact, the mountain had a mysterious power. One could only see it when they were close enough. If they were not close enough, they would miss it.
"Let's go," Chu Mu said. He flew side by side with Xue Yinling towards the huge mountain.
The closer they got, the more they felt that the mountain was huge. It exuded a unique pressure. It was full of the supreme power of heaven. It was mighty and overwhelming.
When Chu Mu and Xue Yinling got close, they immediately felt many gazes fall on them. There were already many people gathered here. Every one of them exuded a powerful aura. They were all Sovereign Realm experts. Almost all of them were Junior Sovereign Realm experts.
"Sword Sovereign!" Chu Mu and Xue Yinling were extremely shocked because these small dominator realm experts were all emitting traces of sword-like sharpness. There were at least a few dozen of them.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's cultivation was also seen through by these Sword Sovereigns. They were Junior Sovereign Realm experts.
"You two, our team is short of two people. Why don't you join us?" A Junior Sovereign Realm expert, Dacheng Sword Sovereign, said to Chu Mu and Xue Yinling.
"What's the situation?" Chu Mu asked. He and Xue Yinling had just arrived, so they did not know what was going on.
"Didn't you come for the Sword God Mountain?" That person asked back.
"Sword God Mountain?" Chu Mu and Xue Yinling were confused. "No, we just came here by chance."
"That's really good luck. The Sword God Mountain will open soon." That Dacheng Sovereign Realm sword cultivator smiled and said, "Since the Sword God Mountain hasn't opened yet, I'll tell you all about it. The Sword God Mountain is the place where a Sword God practiced his sword during the Ancient Era. The Sword God's ruins were left behind, and it's rumored that there are even inheritances."
"The surroundings of the Sword God Mountain are filled with powerful energy. This kind of energy is protecting the Sword God Mountain. Unless one has the strength of a Demigod Sovereign, otherwise, one wouldn't be able to break through this layer of energy. Even if a Great Sovereign Realm expert were to barge in, he would be killed by the outer layer of energy of the Sword God Mountain."
"However, the outer layer of energy of the Sword God Mountain has a Tidal Period. Normally, it happens once every ten thousand years. The energy will be weakened to the extreme, but it's still very powerful. If you want to enter, you must have the strength of a Great Sovereign Realm expert to barely protect yourself. If a Small Sovereign Realm expert wants to enter, five people will have to work together to form a formation."
"Our team only has three people. We still lack two people. Looking at the situation now, the Sword God Mountain will open soon. If we don't have five people in the team, we will miss this opportunity. We can only continue to wait."
"Alright, I've basically said everything that needs to be said. Do you have any other questions?" The Dacheng Sovereign Realm sword cultivator said.
"What's the harvest after entering the Sword God Mountain and how to leave?" Chu Mu asked.
"The outer layer of energy of the Sword God Mountain weakens for about a year. In other words, after entering the Sword God Mountain, you have to leave within a year. If you don't leave, when the energy of the Sword God Mountain recovers, there will be a backflow of energy that will instantly engulf the entire Sword God Mountain. Those who stay within will be instantly killed. Just like entering, you will also have to work together to leave."
"However, if you enter when the energy of the Sword God Mountain has just weakened, the energy will weaken by another level after about a year. At that time, even if four or three people work together, you can still barely charge out."
"As for the distribution of the loot, because the team is made up of five people, whoever discovers the treasure first and obtains it with their own strength will get 60%. The remaining 40% will be divided among the other four, each getting 10%. If you need help from others, you will have to discuss it separately, but generally, it will not exceed 30%."
"Then, are the two of you willing to join our team and enter the Sword God Mountain together?" After explaining, the Dacheng Sovereign Realm sword cultivator asked again.
"Alright." Chu Mu glanced at Xue Yinling and nodded in agreement.
There was a tacit understanding between the two of them. Usually, it was Chu Mu who made the decisions.
Speaking of which, Chu Mu and Xue Yinling had no reason to refuse. What was the purpose of coming out to explore?
In addition to seeing the vast Chaotic Universe, he naturally hoped to come across some opportunities. Otherwise, it would take a very long time for him to improve his cultivation base by cultivating diligently. In fact, no matter how high his cultivation base was, it would be very difficult for him to catch up in other aspects.
The focus of a cultivator's cultivation was on cultivation and refining.
Cultivation was cultivation. Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles was cultivation. Cultivating behind closed doors would only lead to nothing in the end.
Refining was refining, absorbing, and turning everything one saw and heard in cultivation into one's own. Only in this way could one truly improve.
Cultivation was refining. Therefore, it was cultivation.
For a cultivator, cultivation was important, and so was the realm of martial arts. Cultivation could allow a cultivator to have more powerful and vigorous power, while the realm of martial arts could allow a cultivator to better mobilize and exert their power.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling had been swept here by the storm caused by the chaos beast. They were destined to encounter this opportunity. If they missed it, it would be a waste.
"I have to make one thing clear first. We don't know each other. We formed a team for the Sword God Mountain. To be safe, everyone has to swear on their own Sword Dao that they will never attack their companions," Xu Guanying said seriously. Chu Mu and Xue Yinling didn't have any objections. They felt more at ease this way.
"Let's get to know each other. I'm Xu Guanying." The Dacheng Sovereign Realm sword cultivator who had been talking introduced himself.
"Leng Ruo." It was a woman. She had a cold appearance, and the words she spoke were also cold and unapproachable.
"Guan Zhongjie." Another man smiled.
They looked like they were in their thirties, but in reality, each of them was over ten thousand years old. It was just that the higher the realm of a cultivator, the more they could maintain their appearance. Some of them looked like old men, but it was also their own wish.
"Chu Mu. She is my cultivation partner, Xue Yinling," Chu Mu said.
After introducing themselves, the five of them had a preliminary understanding of each other. Next, they didn't introduce themselves further. There was no need for that.
They had just formed a temporary team to enter the Sword God Mountain. There was no friendship.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling sat side by side, staring at the Sword God Mountain.
The Sword God Mountain was a mountain. It was a mountain where the Sword God practiced his sword in ancient times. It had always been there. Chu Mu and Xue Yinling could see that the Sword God Mountain was surrounded by layers of power. It looked like Sword Qi, but also like Sword Light. It was difficult to sense any power in it. It was very ordinary.
Chu Mu released a wisp of mental power to touch it. Instantly, it was as if he had fallen into a terrifying sword light that could overturn the sky and overturn the sea. The sword light was boundless and every ray was incomparably sharp. It could easily shatter the vacuum. Even Great Dominator Realm experts couldn't withstand it and would be instantly killed.
Chu Mu's wisp of spiritual power was also destroyed in an instant. His spiritual world was shaken. It was turbulent. It took him a long time to calm down.
"What a terrifying power." Chu Mu thought to himself. His actions weren't hidden from the others. Guan Zhongjie's lips curled into a disdainful smile. Xu Guanying, on the other hand, wasn't laughing. Leng Ruo, on the other hand, was still as cold as ever.
It was worth mentioning that Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's cultivation were the lowest. They were at the entry level of the Sovereign Realm. Xu Guanying was at the Sovereign Realm. Dacheng was at the Sovereign Realm. Guan Zhongjie was at the peak of the initial Sovereign Realm. Leng Ruo was at the initial Sovereign Realm.
Guan Zhongjie thought that Chu Mu was overestimating himself. If it wasn't for entering the Sword God Mountain, he might not have been willing to team up with Chu Mu.
"Chu Mu, the power outside the Sword God Mountain is very terrifying. It's best not to try it. Otherwise, you might be killed." Xu Guanying said, "The five of us are a small team. Therefore, we have to work together to enter the Sword God Mountain. This requires a formation. However, this formation is very simple. You can learn it now."
As she spoke, Xu Guanying handed a book to Chu Mu. Chu Mu took it and flipped through it. He instantly memorized the contents. It was a formation that required five people to work together. It wasn't difficult. With his ability, he grasped it in a short time.
Then, Xue Yinling also grasped the formation.
"Let's practice it. We don't want to implicate others if we make a mistake," said Guan Zhongjie. He actually looked down on Chu Mu and Xue Yinling.
"Alright." Xu Guanying said. Indeed, they had to practice it to improve everyone's cooperation. Only then could they enter the Sword God Mountain better. Otherwise, if they made a mistake, they might be killed by the power of the Sword God Mountain. This was an outcome that no one wanted to see.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling naturally didn't have any objections. In an instant, the five of them stood in their positions. Seeing Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's fluent movements, Xu Guanying nodded secretly. Experts knew the ropes. Xu Guanying had already grasped the formation and was very familiar with it. Naturally, she could see that Chu Mu and Xue Yinling had indeed grasped the formation.
Not long after, everyone stopped because they didn't need to continue practicing. Chu Mu and Xue Yinling had used their abilities to prove that they had indeed grasped the formation. This made Guan Zhongjie very unhappy.
Time passed. Chu Mu and Xue Yinling also quietly cultivated and comprehended what they had learned in the past few decades.
The other sword dominators were also quietly cultivating and comprehending. They were waiting for the power of the Sword God Mountain to weaken before entering.
