A year passed on the Sword God Mountain. The competition became more intense.
Some of the stronger ones managed to obtain more Sword Dao treasures from the Sword God Mountain. Some of the weaker ones were forced to hand over the Sword Dao treasures they found.
Those who were stronger would become richer, while those who were weaker would work harder for others.
"The formation only needs five people. You three, we only need two." On one side, there were three Sovereign Realm Dacheng sword cultivators. On the other side, there were also three. They were Xu Guanying, Guan Zhongjie and Leng Ruo.
"He's a Sovereign Realm Dacheng. I'm at the peak of the initial Sovereign Realm. She's the weakest. She's only at the initial Sovereign Realm." Guan Zhongjie hurriedly said, "I think it's safer to leave the Sword God Mountain with a higher cultivation and stronger strength."
"Alright, then you two will temporarily join our team and leave together." One of the three said.
Leng Ruo was abandoned.
They had only formed a temporary team. There was no friendship between them and they didn't need to take any responsibility. The Sword Dao Oath was only about not attacking their companions in the Sword God Mountain. It didn't have any restrictions on other things.
Xu Guanying looked at Leng Ruo apologetically. However, he didn't feel guilty. The world of cultivators was so cruel. No one would put themselves in danger for someone they didn't have any friendship with.
Guan Zhongjie was incomparably calm. He felt that he didn't do anything wrong. It was Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's fault. They should've handed over their Sword Dao treasures and shouldn't have left the team.
"Leng Ruo, you can't blame us. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame those two." Guan Zhongjie added.
Leng Ruo's expression was as cold as usual. She didn't say anything and turned to leave.
There wasn't much time left. She had to find another team to join. Otherwise, she might die in the Sword God Mountain. This wasn't the ending she wanted.
As for Chu Mu and Xue Yinling, to be honest, she had complained before. However, she knew that what they did wasn't wrong. She understood, so naturally, she didn't complain. However, people like Guan Zhongjie were different. If he didn't like someone, he would feel that they were wrong.
Xu Guanying and Guan Zhongjie left with the new team. Leng Ruo's direction was different from theirs.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling were still refining Sword Principle treasures in the disc space and perfecting their own Sword Principles.
All the Sword God Grass had been refined. Chu Mu's All Heavens Sword Way had been refined to 13%. Xue Yinling's Void Sword Way had been refined to 15%. Their cultivations had all reached the pinnacle of the Minor Sovereign Realm. They were just a little bit away from reaching the Minor Sovereign Realm. Dacheng.
If they continued to refine Sword Tao treasures, they would be able to do so. However, Chu Mu and Xue Yinling stopped.
Their self-created Sword Dao had been perfected by quite a bit. The improvement was very obvious. Their cultivation had also improved significantly. They had to consolidate it. They could not blindly pursue breakthroughs. That would affect their foundation.
Since there was still time, the two of them continued to cultivate, unearthing the potential of their Way of the Sword and consolidating their improved cultivation, transforming it into true strength.
Time flew. Finally, the alarm in the disc space woke Chu Mu and Xue Yinling up. Time was up.
Coincidentally, the two of them had also consolidated their improved cultivation. They had also improved their mastery of the Way of the Sword. Although they had not completely consolidated and mastered it, it would not affect their performance. However, after they left, they still had to consolidate and master it. Only then could they proceed to the next step of cultivation.
"With our abilities and our tacit cooperation, we should be able to resist the external forces of the Sword God Mountain." Chu Mu calculated silently. The external forces of the Sword God Mountain had weakened further. Their abilities had increased. Furthermore, their cooperation was extremely good. They would most likely be able to charge out.
If not, they could still use their trump cards.
"Let's go." The two of them immediately went down the Sword God Mountain. Only when they reached the foot of the Sword God Mountain would they be able to come into contact with the external forces of the Sword God Mountain and leave.
At this time, most people had already left the Sword God Mountain. Only a small number of people had not.
When Chu Mu and Xue Yinling reached the foot of the mountain, they saw Leng Ruo standing there alone. Leng Ruo also saw Chu Mu and Xue Yinling. Her expression changed. Immediately, she seemed to have thought of something and did not speak.
"You're the only one left. Where are Xu Guanying and Guan Zhongjie?" Chu Mu naturally walked over with Xue Yinling and asked.
"They went out." Leng Ruo's voice was very cold.
"They formed a new team and excluded you?" Chu Mu asked again. Leng Ruo nodded. The situation was more or less like that.
"Do you want to take a risk?" Xue Yinling asked.
"Take a risk? Team up with you? "Leng Ruo asked. Chu Mu and Xue Yinling both nodded.
"Okay." Leng Ruo did not hesitate too much. Based on the current situation, it was very difficult to form a complete team. If she was alone, she would definitely not be able to leave the Sword God Mountain. Although she could not form a complete team, there was still some hope.
Immediately, she realized that Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's cultivation did not seem to be at the beginning of the Small Sovereign Realm.
"I made some changes to the formation. The three of you can use it. Remember it first." Chu Mu said. He had a certain level of attainment in formations and his comprehension was extremely shocking. That formation was relatively simple. He had already understood it thoroughly and could easily make adjustments.
The formation that was originally suitable for five people was changed to suitable for three people. After Leng Ruo learned it, she was very shocked. She also felt that there was a greater chance of getting out.
After a while, Leng Ruo mastered the modified formation. Then, the three of them practiced it. There were no flaws.
"Let's go." Under Chu Mu's command, the three of them activated the formation and immediately rushed out. Their speed was not slow, but they did not purposely try to be fast. They wanted to be safe because the power close to the Sword God Mountain was the strongest. If they could withstand it, the further they went, the weaker they would be. Their chances of leaving would be greater.
The three of them activated the formation. Each of them defended against one side of the formation, resisting the unceasing sword Qi. As they rotated, they moved forward like a wheel.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's cultivation had both reached the peak of the Small Sovereign Realm. Their actual strength surpassed Dacheng, who was at the Small Sovereign Realm. Leng Ruo's cultivation was at the Small Sovereign Realm. Her actual strength was also at the Small Sovereign Realm. She was not as strong as Chu Mu and Xue Yinling. Even though the power of the Sword God Mountain was weakened, she was still barely able to withstand it.
A strand of sword qi shot over, and Leng Ruo was utterly unable to block it in time. Her countenance instantly turned ghastly pale because if she wasn't able to block this strand of sword qi, then the formation would be destroyed. At that time, all three of them might die here.
At the crucial moment, a Sword Light seemed to come from the sky and shattered the sword Qi. It was Chu Mu who had saved them.
After increasing his strength, coupled with his Heaven Realm high stage sword technique realm and super powerful techniques, Chu Mu could better defend against the sword aura attacks from all directions. Thus, he could split his attention and take care of Leng Ruo, and Xue Yinling could do the same.
With Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's help, Leng Ruo was barely able to defend against the sword aura attacks. The three of them formed a formation that constantly moved outwards. Gradually, the sword aura's power slowly weakened. Chu Mu and Xue Yinling became more and more relaxed, and the pressure on Leng Ruo also gradually decreased.
However, defending against the sword Qi outside of the Sword God Mountain still consumed a lot of their strength. Leng Ruo still had to rely on Chu Mu and Xue Yinling's help to completely defend against the sword Qi.
The formation was activated. After the three of them shattered the last sword Qi, they finally escaped from the power of the Sword God Mountain. They no longer had to face the endless sword Qi attacks of the Sword God Mountain. They were safe.
Leng Ruo heaved a sigh of relief. She felt that the power in her body was empty. She couldn't help but feel scared. She had almost died under the sword Qi of the Sword God Mountain.
"Thank you." Leng Ruo sincerely expressed her gratitude to Chu Mu and Xue Yinling. If the two of them hadn't asked her to form a team, with their strength, they might have been able to escape from the Sword God Mountain. It could be said that they had saved her life.
"You're welcome. We formed a team to leave the Sword God Mountain better," said Chu Mu with a smile. He didn't take the credit.
"No matter what, I owe you my life. If you have any errands in the future, I, Leng Ruo, will not refuse," said Leng Ruo seriously. Immediately, she took out an ice token and handed it to Xue Yinling. "I am a sword cultivator from the Ice Sword Palace. If you go to the Ice Sword Great World in the future, you can contact me with this token. If I am there, I will do my best to entertain you."
Xue Yinling took the ice token.
In the Chaotic Universe, in addition to the three main worlds, there were countless worlds. These worlds could be divided into small worlds, medium worlds, and great worlds. The area of a great world was often larger than a high-level world. It was at least ten times larger. Some great worlds were even hundreds of times larger than a high-level world.
The larger the world, the more abundant the resources and the more complete the Heavenly Way. Therefore, the cultivators in the great worlds were often not weak. The various forces in the great worlds were also very powerful. They were not inferior to the forces in the main worlds.
The Ice Sword Great World was quite a famous great world. Its area was at least a hundred times larger than a high-level world. There were even Demigod Sovereigns. It was very impressive.
Leng Ruo was a sword cultivator from the Ice Sword Palace. Presumably, the Ice Sword Palace was not weak.
Chu Mu and Xue Yinling traveled the Chaotic Universe, but it didn't mean that they would always drift in the universe. Sometimes, they would enter some worlds. This was also a kind of experience.
"At least, we have to solve the current problem first." Seeing Xue Yinling put away the ice token, Chu Mu laughed. Leng Ruo also noticed that there were other sword cultivators around. Their gazes fell on the three of them. Their gazes clearly showed that they were prey.
