The huge Sword Tomb stood quietly in the void. In front of the huge sword-shaped tombstone, a group of people from the Heavenly River Tribe and the Nether River Tribe were still trying to figure out how to enter the Sword Tomb.
Suddenly, the Sword Tomb shook as if a terrifying giant beast was about to break out of the tomb. Everyone was shocked and quickly retreated. They stared at the Sword Tomb and quietly gathered their power.
In the next moment, there was an ear-piercing cracking sound that caused everyone to involuntarily quiver. The first crack appeared on the incomparably hard sword tomb, and the cracks quickly spread out. Soon, the entire sword tomb was covered with cracks like a spider web.
"What's going on?"
"Why is there a crack in the Sword Tomb?"
Everyone was shocked.
After that, the Sword Tomb transformed into countless fragments that exploded and shot out in all directions. Every single fragment was like a sword that carried an incomparably terrifying might that caused one's heart to tremble. Everyone hurriedly moved to dodge and defend themselves.
When the Sword Tomb completely shattered, it disappeared without a trace. The huge sword-shaped tombstone trembled and turned into a Sword Light that shot into the sky and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes. It disappeared into the vast void of the River Boundary.
"It's him!"
"That Mutated Tribesman."
"Did he get the inheritance of the Ancient Sword Venerable's tomb?"
"I think so."
The Sword Tomb shattered and disappeared, and the tombstone turned into a Sword Light and escaped. Only Chu Mu was left standing where the Sword Tomb used to be. He instantly became the focus of attention.
"Mutated Tribesman, hand over the inheritance." The Double Dark and Ancient narrowed his eyes, and his sharp and cold gaze fell on Chu Mu. His voice was faint as if it floated out of a cold river, and Chu Mu suddenly felt a chill invade his body.
Chu Mu, who was in the middle of thinking, was interrupted. He turned to look at the Double Dark and Ancient, and took in everyone's expressions.
"Mutated Tribesman, hand over the inheritance." The Nether River Tribe experts took a step forward, and their cold aura locked onto Chu Mu.
"Inheritance … I don't have it," Chu Mu replied calmly.
Faced with the two options left behind by the First Primordial Sword Venerable, Chu Mu chose the second option after some consideration, which was the so-called First Primordial Sword Venerable's pursuit of a higher level of comprehension after reaching the peak of the Demigod Sovereign.
Chu Mu had made this decision after careful consideration. He was confident that he could become a Demigod Sovereign, and obtaining the inheritance of the first Primordial Sword Venerable might allow him to become a Demigod Sovereign in a shorter period of time, but that would only make him another Primordial Sword Venerable. This was not the result that Chu Mu wanted.
Ever since he started cultivating, every advancement was due to his own efforts. Perhaps he had the help of others, but in the end, he followed his own path. He was Chu Mu, not someone else.
In addition, Chu Mu had always assumed that the Demigod Autarch level was the end of the Chaosverse. But now that he had learned that there were higher realms than that, he was very curious.
With all these factors in mind, Chu Mu made the second choice.
But to his surprise, the so-called comprehension of the second choice was completely different from what he had imagined. Chu Mu fell into a daze, unable to make a judgment for a while.
The higher realms beyond the Demigod Sovereign was just a guess of the first Primordial Sword Venerable. It had not been completely confirmed, and the possibility was only a few percent. It might or might not exist.
The first Primordial Sword Venerable's comprehension was not to become a Demigod Sovereign, but to have a chance to surpass the Demigod Sovereign.
This kind of comprehension sounded contradictory. Chu Mu also understood why the first Primordial Sword Venerable had separated the two inheritances and could only choose one.
It was because the first inheritance was to become a Demigod Sovereign, while the second inheritance was not to become a Demigod Sovereign.
Compared to the first inheritance, the second inheritance was more illusory and full of uncertainty.
After learning this, Chu Mu even had a trace of regret, but he quickly dismissed it because it was his own choice. Moreover, he was confident that he could become a Demigod Sovereign.
While he was thinking, he was interrupted by a cold aura that locked onto him.
"Seems like you don't intend to hand it over." A Nether River Tribesman looked at the Dark and Ancient Double Jades and strode towards Chu Mu. Soon after, he disappeared in front of Chu Mu as if he had merged into the void.
However, Chu Mu could still distinguish a shadow. It was as if the shadow had passed through the cracks of space and appeared behind him quickly. With a ruthless attack, an extreme sharpness and coldness almost pierced into his body, causing damage to it.
Suddenly, he turned around and faced the Nether River Tribesman. A Sword Light quietly bloomed. Before the Nether River Tribesman could react, the Sword Light pierced through the void and pierced through his body, killing him in one strike.
This scene caused everyone to be extremely shocked.
"How dare you kill our tribesman. Die!" The Dark and Ancient Double Jades were furious. They pulled out their sabers and cut through the water silently. The invisible and colorless saber light pierced through the air and reached Chu Mu in an instant. The coldness made his hair stand on end. He quickly crossed his two swords in his hands to resist the slash. The terrible power kept rushing forward. Chu Mu stepped back and neutralized the power of the slash.
The other Nether River Tribesmen also took action.
Xue Yiling's long sword swept across the sky. The Small Void Sword intercepted three Nether River Tribesmen directly. Goros and Mo Luoshan also took action, each intercepting a Nether River Tribesman to share the pressure for Chu Mu. However, there were still a few Nether River Tribesmen who escaped into the void and appeared around Chu Mu to attack.
The Nether River Tribesmen were best at sneak attacks and assassinations. They could escape into the cracks of space and turn into shadows. It was impossible to guard against them. However, under Chu Mu's perception, the figures of those Nether River Tribesmen appeared clearly and were captured by him.
The two swords turned into flowing light. Each slash looked simple and the trajectory was clear. However, it gave people a feeling that they were unavoidable. Everyone's expression changed, especially Jian Ming and Pu Yue, whose eyes shone brightly.
After going through the sword marks on the four walls of the main hall of Ancient Sword Venerable's tomb, Chu Mu's swordsmanship had unknowingly improved. His swordsmanship had become more condensed. Every slash could exert more power with less power. It was at least thirty percent more powerful than before.
A thirty percent increase wouldn't have much of an effect on the weak. However, it was very obvious for someone at Chu Mu's level.
Under the two swords, although the Nether River Tribesmen weren't killed, they were forced out of the cracks of space and were all injured.
"Back off." The Ancient and Dark Twin flew over. He didn't escape into the cracks of space. Instead, he attacked Chu Mu directly. The two swords in his hands turned into flowing light. In an instant, he slashed hundreds of times. Each slash formed a straight line that cut through the void silently. He mercilessly attacked Chu Mu.
Chu Mu's expression was solemn. He felt an extreme threat from the Ancient and Dark Twin's swords.
The two swords slashed out instantly. In an instant, there were more than a thousand swords. Each sword was extremely powerful. They collided with the curved swords and canceled each other out.
The Dark and Ancient Dual Absolutes flashed and seemed to become phantoms that flickered in and out of existence. The two blades in their hands flickered in and out of existence, transforming into extreme sharpness that sliced through the void. An incomparably powerful sense of danger assaulted Chu Mu's body, making him feel as if his body was being sliced apart. Circulating his two swords, he barely managed to block the two blade slashes. A terrifying power exploded from the slashes, causing Chu Mu to continuously retreat.
The Ancient and Dark Twin's speed was astonishing. Their attacks were silent and impossible to guard against. It was Chu Mu's first time fighting with a Nether River Tribesman. He wasn't familiar with them. For a moment, he was at a disadvantage. However, he wasn't dispirited. Instead, he used the two swords to block the attacks of the Ancient and Dark Twin.
The two swords in the hands of the Ancient and Dark Twin continued to attack. The invisible swords densely covered every inch of Chu Mu's body. It was as if they were everywhere.
Pu Yue stood at the side and watched. He didn't have any intention of joining in. He was very interested in Chu Mu now because Chu Mu used two swords. Moreover, the swordsmanship that he had displayed before was very strong. He wanted to see how long this strange man could last against the Ancient and Dark Twin's swords. Pu Yue didn't think that Chu Mu could be a match for the Ancient and Dark Twin.
Fight, fight, fight!
Chu Mu continued to defend against the Ancient and Dark Twin's swords. Gradually, he got used to it and started to counterattack.
His body flashed and the two swords continued to block the attacks of the two swords. He went against the flow and attacked the Ancient and Dark Twin.
The Ancient and Dark Twin was startled at first. They didn't expect this strange man to be able to counterattack. Then, their bodies flashed and disappeared under the attack of Chu Mu's two swords. They directly escaped into the crevice of space. Even with Chu Mu's super strong perception, he couldn't detect them.
Holding the swords with both hands, Chu Mu stood in the void. His six senses were raised to the extreme. He carefully felt all the fluctuations around him. He knew that the Ancient and Dark Twin didn't really disappear. They were waiting for an opportunity to attack him. As long as he showed the slightest flaw, he would suffer a fatal attack.
Time passed slowly. There was no one around Chu Mu. The other members of the Nether River Tribe didn't have any intention of approaching him. They all knew that the Ancient and Dark Twin must be hiding in the surroundings, waiting for an opportunity.
Pu Yue frowned slightly. He carefully sensed, but he couldn't sense the location of the Ancient and Dark Twin. However, this was normal. The Ancient and Dark Twin's strength was extraordinary. They weren't inferior to him. Escaping into the crevice of space was their specialty. It wasn't strange that they couldn't discover them.
Of course, if there was a fluctuation when the Ancient and Dark Twin attacked, he could completely sense it and react accordingly to dodge or even counterattack.
"I wonder if this strange man can do it?" Pu Yue thought to himself.
Whether or not he could do it, he would soon find out.
Chu Mu's body swayed slightly. Inadvertently, he revealed a slight flaw. This flaw was very small and disappeared in a flash. Ordinary experts wouldn't be able to catch it.
However, the Ancient and Dark Twin caught it. They instantly attacked. Their two swords seemed to appear out of thin air. One of the swords strangely attacked Chu Mu's left side, while the other attacked Chu Mu's right side. It was difficult to tell whether they would appear on the left or right side.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Mu's eyes flashed and the two swords split apart, stabbing out from the left and right. Next, all-heavenly swords instantly condensed around him.
