"Although desolate corpses are stronger and harder to kill than desolate beasts, the pure Desolate Qi obtained after killing them is ten times stronger than desolate beasts." Chu Mu secretly felt that after the pure Desolate Qi entered his body, his flesh and blood were strengthened bit by bit, becoming even stronger. Immediately, he revealed a faint smile.
In the next breath, the Diamond Sword Sect, Real Flame Sword Sect and Black Eagle Sword Mansion disciples looked at Chu Mu in unison. Their eyes were filled with shock.
The four of them attacked at the same time to deal with four desolate corpses. With their eyesight, they could naturally tell that the four desolate corpses were about the same in strength.
The four of them attacked the desolate corpses not only to kill the desolate corpses, but also to determine who was better.
Geniuses were bound to have pride. The only difference was how they displayed it.
In terms of cultivation, Chu Mu was only at the peak of Qi Transformation Dacheng. He had the lowest Sword Qi cultivation among the four of them. However, in the end, Chu Mu was the first to kill the desolate corpse.
Although they also killed the desolate corpse less than a breath after Chu Mu killed it, they were still slow, even if it was only for a split second.
For a true expert, a split second was often the deciding factor of life and death.
Furthermore, the body of a desolate corpse was extremely tough and difficult to destroy. Even a high-grade sword could not do anything to it. To kill it, one could only rely on an extremely powerful attack power.
For Chu Mu to be able to kill the desolate corpse faster than them, it meant that Chu Mu's attack power was above theirs.
Attack was the most important factor for a swordsman. Everything else was supplementary to the attack. If the attack was not strong enough, everything else was useless.
After taking a deep look at Chu Mu, as if they wanted to imprint Chu Mu's appearance in their hearts, the three of them quickly rushed towards the dark entrance in front of them.
Chu Mu did not know the various thoughts and fear that flashed through their minds. He also used his movement technique and shot straight into the dark entrance like a sword.
After the previous attack by the desolate corpse, this time, Chu Mu was even more vigilant. His mind was on full alert, but after entering, everything was calm and he did not encounter any attacks.
However, Chu Mu did not let down his guard. Holding the broken golden sword, he quickly went inside.
After walking for about a few dozen meters, a small light appeared in front of him. It was suspended in mid-air, like the light released by a firefly.
Chu Mu's eyes were immediately attracted by the faint light, and he strode over.
There was no danger. Chu Mu came to the front of the ball of light. There seemed to be something inside the ball of light, but because of the light, it was a little blurry. Chu Mu couldn't tell what it was.
After carefully observing for a while, Chu Mu gently touched it with the broken golden sword and did not find any danger or abnormality. Then, he reached out his left hand, wrapped in Tianyuan sword Qi, and directly grabbed at the head-sized ball of white light.
The ball of light remained motionless in his hand. It seemed to have sensed the existence of the Tianyuan sword Qi, and quickly dimmed before finally disappearing. The surrounding light became pitch-black again. Even with Chu Mu's perfect Vision Sword, it was difficult to see.
He could only feel that there was something on his left palm. The cold and smooth feeling spread throughout his entire palm. He could faintly guess what shape it was, but as for what it was exactly, Chu Mu didn't dare to be sure.
There seemed to be nothing else. Chu Mu grasped it with his left hand and turned to walk into the hall with the unknown object.
Everything in the Heaven Wasteland Palace seemed to be deliberately arranged by someone. After passing the challenge and test, this should be considered a reward.
What would happen in the end? Chu Mu did not know, but now, he could only continue to walk until he reached his limit.
Footsteps sounded, and the other three people also walked out and appeared in the hall again. Chu Mu glanced at them. Looking at their expressions, they seemed to have gained something, but he did not know what it was.
With a buzzing sound, a glowing door appeared in the center of the hall. It was unknown where it led.
The Black Eagle Sword Mansion student stared at Chu Mu for three breaths. Suddenly, he grinned. "He must have also obtained some treasure. Let's work together and kill him."
The Diamond Sword Sect disciple glanced at Chu Mu and then at the Black Eagle Sword Mansion student. A trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. He stepped into the glowing door and disappeared.
The Four Major Sword Sects and the Great Kun Sword Mansion were clearly not on the same side, and could even be said to be hostile.
However, the Four Major Sword Sects cultivated different cultivation methods, sword techniques, and so on, resulting in different styles.
For example, the Diamond Sword Sect emphasized being open and aboveboard. If they went against this, it would be extremely difficult for them to improve.
If he wanted to kill Chu Mu, he would only do it himself and not work together with others. That would be going against his principles. However, he was not confident in killing Chu Mu by himself, so he chose to leave. Although he also wanted the treasure Chu Mu obtained, he did not have much confidence in killing Chu Mu.
The Black Eagle Sword Mansion student's face turned gloomy. He looked at the Real Flame Sword Sect disciple questioningly.
"You go ahead. I'll watch from the side." The Real Flame Sword Sect disciple smiled evilly and spread out his hands.
The Black Eagle Sword Mansion student frowned. He could not tell if the other party's answer was true or false. After thinking about it, he decided to give up in the end. He was not confident in killing Chu Mu by himself.
Even if he gave it his all, he might have a chance, but he would definitely be heavily injured. At that time, the Real Flame Sword Sect disciple would become the last hunter.
Only a fool would do such a thing if he had to pay with his life to help others.
"Count yourself lucky." The Black Eagle Sword Mansion student glared viciously at Chu Mu. He very unwillingly left behind some harsh words before turning around and disappearing into the door of light.
"Aiya, what a pity." The Real Flame Sword Sect disciple shook his head and also turned around, disappearing into the door of light.
In the end, only Chu Mu was left in the hall.
If it was just the Black Eagle Sword Mansion student, Chu Mu would have taken the initiative to attack long ago. Unfortunately, the time was not right.
Shaking his head, Chu Mu did not immediately leave through the door of light. Instead, he extended his left hand and opened his palm, staring at the item in his hand.
In that instant, Chu Mu's expression froze before ecstasy overflowed from his eyes.
It was silver-white in color and had an ancient style. There were many mysterious patterns intersecting on it. These patterns all had a peanut-sized silver-white gem as their starting point and ending point.
A Space Bracelet!
That's right, the treasure Chu Mu had obtained was a Space Bracelet. Moreover, it was a silver-white Space Bracelet, an upper-grade Space Bracelet.
Taking a deep breath, Chu Mu calmed himself down and regained his composure. Then, he began to recognize its owner.
With a sweep of his mind, the space inside the silver-white Space Bracelet was 100 cubic meters. It was ten times larger than the Bronze Space Bracelet. This meant that Chu Mu could store even more things.
Although he obtained a high quality spatial wristband, Chu Mu didn't give up his original middle quality spatial wristband. The middle quality spatial wristband's value was extraordinary. Moreover, in this Heaven Wasteland Earth Palace, Chu Mu didn't know if he would obtain more things.
Perhaps he would need more space to store things.
His left hand wore the original spatial wristband, while his right hand wore the newly obtained upper rank spatial wristband. Chu Mu didn't transfer the items in the middle rank spatial wristband to the upper rank spatial wristband because there was no need.
"Heaven Wasteland Palace, no matter what the purpose of your existence is, it's still a good place." Chu Mu thought to himself. He withdrew his gaze from the Space Bracelet on his right wrist and covered it with his robe sleeve. He took a step forward and appeared in front of the glowing door. He flashed into it and disappeared.
Immediately, as Chu Mu disappeared, the glowing door also disappeared. The hall returned to its original tranquility. The four desolate corpses on the floor also disappeared. The four pitch-black entrances were automatically sealed.
… …
"Great Sun Illumination!"
With one sword, hundreds of rays of light shot out. Each ray of light contained a terrifyingly high temperature. Like the rays of the sun, they all poured towards the target.
This was one of the moves of the ancient Great Sun Sword Art.
"Tornado Destruction!"
With one sword, there was a myriad of whistling sounds. A terrifying storm rolled out like a hurricane of doomsday. It swept away everything and was unstoppable.
The two ancient sword skills collided in an instant. Horrifying Sword Qi shot out in all directions, creating a powerful shockwave that shook the entire area. Fierce Wind and Fire element Innate Sword Qi shot out in all directions, smashing into the walls and the ground.
After Chu Mu entered the glowing door, he appeared in the secret room. He saw two people fighting, and it was abnormally intense.
Squinting his eyes, Chu Mu saw the two sides clearly. One of them was a student of the Black Eagle Sword Mansion. He was using a wind elemental ancient sword art. He had also comprehended the wind elemental mentality, which had reached 62%.
The other was a student of the Great Kun Sword Mansion. He was also from the ninth of the ten inner courtyards. He was the current leader of the Proud Sword Gang, Zhu Tianzhao.
Zhu Tianzhao had comprehended the fire elemental mentality, and his comprehension had also reached 62%. He was on par with the wind elemental mentality of the Black Eagle Sword Mansion. In terms of the power of the ancient sword arts, there was not much of a difference. Therefore, the battle between the two had not been decided yet.
"Junior Brother Chu, you came at the right time. Hurry up and help me kill this guy." Zhu Tianzhao and the Black Eagle Sword Mansion's students both noticed the newcomer. Seeing that it was Chu Mu, Zhu Tianzhao immediately shouted with joy.
The Black Eagle Sword Mansion's student frowned. One Zhu Tianzhao was already difficult for him to deal with. If another one came, even if his cultivation was only at the peak of Qi Transforming Dacheng, it would be enough to turn the situation around.
In an instant, the Black Eagle Sword Mansion's student quickly retreated. This secret room was neither big nor small. He quickly distanced himself from Zhu Tianzhao and shouted at the same time, "These Desolation Stones are yours. I will not fight with you."
Zhu Tianzhao and Chu Mu both looked at a small pile of yellowish-brown stones in the center of the secret room. Their eyes shone with intense light.
Desolate Stones!
A low grade Desolate Stone could be exchanged for 100,000 academic credits. A mid grade Desolate Stone could be exchanged for 500,000 academic credits. Whether it was Chu Mu or Zhu Tianzhao, this was a huge income. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
