"This array is actually so profound."
On the eighteenth floor, Chu Mu didn't know that he had already caused a huge commotion in the outside world. He was completely immersed in studying and deciphering the array.
Compared to the array on the seventeenth floor, the array on the eighteenth floor was obviously much more profound. It was like a leap between two levels, making Chu Mu feel that it was extremely difficult.
He did his best, using everything he had learned and everything he had gained from the Phaseless Sky Pagoda, but his progress was still slow.
The sand in the hourglass continued to fall, becoming less and less, representing the passage of time. Gradually, an hour was about to pass.
"I wonder if he can pass the eighteenth floor and enter the nineteenth floor?" An Elder from the Earth Phase Hall said in a low voice. The others also had the same thought.
From the beginning, no one was optimistic about Chu Mu because his progress was the slowest. But they didn't expect him to be a big dark horse, slowly climbing up. When others failed to leave the pagoda, he was still able to continue, creating one miracle after another, causing exclamations after exclamation. In the end, he left an incomparably deep impression in everyone's hearts.
Previously, many people hoped that he could pass the seventeenth floor and enter the eighteenth floor, but they also knew that it was incomparably difficult. Now that Chu Mu did it, it inevitably gave people hope and expectations.
Passed the nineteenth floor!
The nineteenth floor also belonged to the core disciple level, but compared to the eighteenth floor, it was equivalent to the comparison between the more outstanding core disciple and the more ordinary core disciple. If one could pass the twentieth floor, it would be equivalent to the top core disciple level.
Until now, in the past ten years, only one person who wasn't a disciple of the Phaseless Divine Palace had passed the twentieth floor. And there were many people challenging the pagoda every day. One could imagine how shocking the difficulty was.
Time slowly passed, the anticipation in everyone's heart grew stronger.
Unknowingly, an hour passed. Chu Mu's name flickered. Everyone was first stunned, then they revealed a disappointed expression, or they sighed heavily. Their emotions were indescribably complicated.
With a flash of light, a figure appeared outside the Phaseless Sky Pagoda. It was Chu Mu.
The name on the third black stone tablet was Chu Mu: Eighteenth floor!
Immediately after, one of the names on the second stone tablet began to flicker and release a radiance. Gradually, it began to change. This name was at the top of the list. When the radiance finally disappeared, what was revealed was Chu Mu's name and the number of floors he had passed. The other names fell down in order.
Then, one of the names on the first black stone tablet released light, also changing.
Everyone's gazes were drawn over as they stared fixedly at him.
The forty-nine names recorded on the first black stone tablet represented the highest record for non-members of the Phaseless Divine Palace in the history of the Phaseless Sky Pagoda. The name at the top of the list was Tang Tianhong, and the number of floors behind it was the twenty-fourth floor.
The twenty-fourth floor floor floor floor, this was no doubt a shocking record.
The person in second place was called Yu Jianfeng, and the level he had reached was the twenty-third level.
The fourth place was the twenty-first level.
On the first black stone tablet, there were only four people who had reached the twentieth level and above, four who had reached the twentieth level, thirty-one who had reached the nineteenth level, and ten who had reached the eighteenth level.
The flashing name was one of the last to reach the eighteenth floor. Chu Mu's name and the floor number appeared, while the flashing name sank, and the names below it also fell in order.
Forty-third!
Chu Mu had almost been able to successfully break through the formation and enter the nineteenth level. Unfortunately, due to a slight difference in time, he had no chance of entering the nineteenth level. In the end, he was only ranked forty-third on the first black stone tablet.
However, being able to be listed on the first black stone tablet was already a great acknowledgement. His name would remain on the tablet for many years until it was pushed down again and again. Most likely, it would take a very, very long time for that to happen.
The few experts from the Giant Elephant Family had shocking killing intent in their eyes as they stared at Chu Mu. They wished they could tear him to shreds, but they didn't dare because this was the Phaseless Giant City. Once they made a move, they would infuriate the Phaseless Divine Palace and bring a calamity to the Giant Elephant Family.
The Phaseless Divine Palace could be said to be the ruler of the Phaseless World. Normally, it was very stable and didn't participate in any resource fights or conflicts. However, no one dared to provoke it.
Following that, one figure after another seemed to walk out of the void, emitting a power that forcibly repelled the surrounding people. They appeared in front of Chu Mu, each and every one of them looking at Chu Mu with joy and excitement. That gaze seemed to want to see through Chu Mu.
"Chu Mu, I'm Elder Tian Muzi of the Phaseless Divine Palace's Sky Phase Hall. I'm here to welcome you." The Sky Phase Hall's Elder took the initiative to speak first.
"Chu Mu, I'm Elder Wu Hongzi of the Phaseless Divine Palace's Phaseless Hall. Our Phaseless Hall is the head of the six halls of the Phaseless Divine Palace. We have the most abundant resources. As long as you join our Phaseless Hall, you will immediately become a core disciple and enjoy all the benefits of a core disciple." The Phaseless Hall's Elder hurriedly spoke.
"Wu Hongzi, we've already agreed. This time, the Phaseless Hall cannot participate in the competition." The Earth Phase Hall's Elder said angrily.
"If it's the true disciple level, my Phaseless Hall can indeed not participate. However, Chu Mu has reached the eighteenth floor. That's the level of a core disciple." The Phaseless Hall's Elder Wu Hongzi sneered as he retorted.
"I'm Elder Wu Yuanzi of the Phaseless Divine Palace's Human Phase Hall. Chu Mu, you're very suitable for our Human Phase Hall." The Human Phase Hall's Elder also spoke. Even though he really hoped to recruit Chu Mu, his expression was still calm, as if he was recuperating.
"Chu Mu, I'm Long Shanzi of the Phaseless Divine Palace's Dragon Phase Hall. My Dragon Phase Hall is in charge of the Four Phase Mountain. Come to my Dragon Phase Hall and I promise to give you a chance to enter the Four Phase Mountain." The Dragon Phase Hall's Elder Long Shanzi also tried to persuade Huang Xiaolong. Shortly after, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly explained, "The Four Phase Mountain is an extremely important sacred ground for arrays in the Phaseless Divine Palace. Only esoteric disciples are qualified to enter."
The Phaseless Divine Palace's disciples were ranked from low to high as ordinary disciples, elite disciples, true disciples, core disciples, and esoteric disciples. It was said that there was another rank above esoteric disciples, which was also the highest rank in the Phaseless Divine Palace.
Compared to the Phaseless Sky Pagoda, esoteric disciples would need to reach the twenty-first floor at the very least.
Only esoteric disciples were qualified to enter the sacred ground for arrays. It was undoubtedly extremely important and had a great attraction.
"Chu Mu, I'm the Phaseless Divine Palace's Sword Phase Hall's Elder Jian Xuanzi." Jian Xuanzi said. He stared at Chu Mu as if he had discovered something. His eyes lit up as he continued, "Can you imagine the scene of thousands of swords with a wave of your hand? Using the sword array to evolve heaven and earth, using the sword array to shatter everything, and using the sword array to recreate the void?"
Jian Xuanzi's tone was direct and sharp. The content of his words gave people unlimited imagination. Chu Mu's eyes also lit up.
"Chu Mu, as long as you join my Phaseless Palace, I will definitely get you a spot in the Four Phase Mountain. In addition, the resources you can enjoy will also increase by 10%." Phaseless Palace's Wu Hongzi said again.
"My Sky Phase Hall will increase by 20%." Sky Phase Hall's Elder Tian Muzi roared as he glared at Phaseless Palace's Elder.
Phaseless Divine Palace was divided into six palaces. They were Phaseless Palace, Sky Phase Palace, Earth Phase Palace, Human Phase Palace, Dragon Phase Palace, and Sword Phase Palace. Among them, Phaseless Palace was the leader. It was the main branch of Phaseless Divine Palace, the most core part. Naturally, it would have more resources.
The six palaces either had different philosophies or different directions. This caused the disciples of the six palaces to have obvious differences in array dao. Especially the more profound the array dao, the more obvious the difference.
Seeing with their own eyes and hearing with their own ears that the elders of the six palaces of Phaseless Divine Palace made promises and even quarreled with each other in order to take Chu Mu into their respective palaces as a disciple, the surrounding people were dumbfounded. Their hearts were filled with envy.
These six people were the elders of the six palaces of Phaseless Divine Palace. They were all powerful figures in their respective palaces. They didn't believe that their status was high, their cultivation was profound, and their array dao attainments were incomparably shocking. Any one of them could cause the Phaseless World to shake with a stomp of their feet.
The several Sovereign Realm experts of the Giant Elephant Family looked as if their parents had died.
Zhou Cheng and Li Shuqiu were similarly shocked. There were very few people who could make the elders of the six palaces fight over them. It even looked as if they were about to fight. It was simply envious.
Previously, Zhou Cheng was still in a bad mood. He was still thinking if Chu Mu would enter Phaseless Divine Palace, should he go and find trouble with him. But now, he didn't dare to do so. In fact, when Chu Mu reached the eighteenth floor, his thoughts of finding trouble with him had already dissipated. Because Chu Mu had surpassed his level. If he found trouble with Chu Mu, he would only be looking for trouble. Now that he saw this scene, his heart trembled.
The elders of the six palaces continued to quarrel.
"Seniors." Chu Mu revealed a bitter smile. He also didn't know that he would cause such a big mess. The moment he spoke, the elders of the six palaces immediately stopped quarreling. Their eyes seemed to be shining like large light bulbs. They were simply becoming searchlights. "I'm honored that the elders think so highly of me. Chu Mu is endlessly grateful. But in fact, I'm a sword cultivator. If I want to learn array dao, Sword Phase Hall should be the most suitable place for me."
When these words came out, only the elder of Sword Phase Hall was beaming with joy. The other elders of the five palaces had a helpless expression.
"No, Chu Mu. My Phaseless Palace also has a profound sword array inheritance. As long as you come to Phaseless Palace, the sword array inheritance will definitely be given to you." Wu Hongzi made a final effort.
"Wu Hongzi, do you want to test my sword array?" Jian Xuanzi was furious. His shocking sharpness directly locked onto Wu Hongzi. He had the aura of 'if you dare to speak again, I'll use my sword to teach you a lesson.'
"Thank you senior for thinking so highly of me. But since I've chosen Sword Phase Hall, it's not good to go back on my words." Chu Mu smiled helplessly.
