As the Profound Star Sword was pulled out, blood splashed into the sky. The black-robed man staggered back a few steps, his eyes bulging out as he stared at Chu Mu. His mouth moved, but no words came out. Finally, he fell down unwillingly.
His heart was crushed by the Profound Star Sword. His life force was quickly drained away, and he died completely.
If it was before, Chu Mu would have used the dark red dagger to suck his blood dry. But after the secret of the dark red dagger was revealed, it no longer had the ability to suck blood.
Without the ability to absorb blood, although the dark red small sword was still incomparably sharp, its power was greatly reduced. Adding on the fact that the dark red small sword was a keepsake of the central main sword region's sword dao sect, Asura Sword Sect, Chu Mu subconsciously didn't plan on using it again.
After the black-robed man died, Chu Mu quickly took off the spatial bracelet from his body. It was a mid rank spatial bracelet. It was obvious that upper rank spatial bracelets were very rare.
Then, he searched for a while, but didn't find anything. He thought that all the valuable items must be kept in the spatial bracelet. He then put away the supreme rank sword. Then, he slashed the Profound Star Sword on the stone wall. Hot sparks flew out and landed on the black-robed man's long robe. It immediately started to burn, and soon, it turned into a raging fire.
… …
The night was dark, and the sky was filled with stars. The night sky above the Demon Chaos Plain was quiet and deep.
In a guest room of the Wind Facing Inn in the Demon Shaking City, Chu Mu was taking a hot bath. There were a few leaves of the Jade Palm Tree in the bathtub, giving the hot water a refreshing herbal smell.
Ever since he entered the Demon Chaos Plain, Chu Mu was constantly in the middle of battles. He didn't have much time to rest. Even when he was resting, he didn't dare to fall asleep for fear of being attacked. Therefore, in the past two months, his nerves had been in a tense state.
Even an iron man couldn't last too long in that kind of situation. Otherwise, it would only bring about injuries to himself.
It had been two months since Chu Mu arrived at the Demon Shaker City. His original plan was to reach the ninth revolution of the Nine Transformations of Heavenly Essence within three months and break through to the Qi Hai Realm within half a year.
But now, because of the battles and the dangerous situations, he had broken through the Nine Transformations of Sky Yuan a month earlier than expected. After that, he had broken through to the Qi Hai Realm. Therefore, it was a good idea to go out and train.
After that, because of the Desolate Sky Fruit, not only did his cultivation talent increase to the sixth rank, his sword Qi also increased from the Initial Qi Hai Realm to the Initial Qi Hai Realm. Even the fifth movement of the Desolate Sky Sword Body, the Muscle Chapter, was slightly improved and would be completed in a while.
Soaking in the steaming hot water, Chu Mu's entire body was in a relaxed state. Because of the hot water, his blood flowed faster.
Right now, his sword force had reached perfection and there was still room for improvement. Once he reached the peak of perfection, it would be the sword intent. The sword intent was a very mysterious thing, even more mysterious and powerful than the sword force.
The Tearing Concept had reached 60%, and its power was equivalent to 90% of a regular Concept. There was still a lot of room for improvement. As for the Cloud Concept, it had reached 72%. Although it wasn't as powerful as the Tearing Concept, it could make the Flying Swan Illusory Space Step even more unpredictable.
The Stone Quake was still at the peak of the Initial Stage. Chu Mu had a feeling that he would be able to break through to the Dacheng Realm within a month.
He organized his thoughts. His sword Qi was at the Initial Qi Hai Realm, his sword force had reached perfection, sixty percent Ripping Mentality, seventy-two percent Cloud Mentality, and the Stone Quake was at the peak of the Initial Stage. Plus, he could use supreme grade swords at will and could use thirty percent of the natural Qi. His strength was more than ten times stronger than before.
Thinking about it, even a Peak Qi Hai Sword Warrior from the Moro Sword Sect had died under Chu Mu's sword. It could be seen that Chu Mu's strength was extremely terrifying. He even had the thought of going to the East Saint Sub Palace to challenge for the Sword Hero title.
Thinking about the battle between the Gold Fragment Sword Hero and the Wild Dragon Sword Hero, Chu Mu realized that even if he fought against one of them, he would not be a match for them.
In other words, with Chu Mu's current strength, he did not have the qualifications to challenge for the Sword Hero title. However, he was only twenty years old. In another one or two years, his strength would definitely increase. By then, he would have the ability to challenge for the Sword Hero title.
"After this training is over, I will go back to my family first. Then I will go back to the Sword Faction. What I said that day should be fulfilled." Chu Mu thought to himself, "But I don't know if Senior Brother Xiao is still alive. If he is, where is he now?"
Thinking about it, Chu Mu gradually fell asleep. This time, he slept for another hour. The water was completely cold, and when he woke up, he felt refreshed and energetic.
Getting out of the bathtub, Chu Mu put on a clean robe and walked into the bedroom. He took out the middle-grade spatial bracelet of the black-robed man.
There were a few high-grade and one top-grade swords, two human-grade ancient sword arts, one earth-grade ancient sword art, three mystic grade mid-grade sword qi arts, one mystic grade high-grade sword qi art, and one mystic grade top-grade sword qi art. There were also quite a number of spirit stones.
Except for the top-grade Profound Sword Qi art, Chu Mu did not care about the rest. This top-grade Profound Sword Qi art was a metal-attributed sword art. Chu Mu looked through it once and put it away. It was useless to him, so he might as well keep it for future use.
In addition, there was also a secret skill called the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. Strictly speaking, it could be considered a finger art.
"Gold Piercing Sword Finger?" Chu Mu was slightly startled. In the Ancient Sword Continent, there were mainly sword cultivators, and they all practiced the sword. Besides movement skills and some secret skills that could increase strength and fly, the main attacking methods were sword arts, sword moves, and sword skills. This kind of sword finger art was very rare, and it was also Chu Mu's first time seeing it.
After carefully looking through the contents, Ye Chen realized that this Gold Piercing Sword Finger could be considered a finger art. However, the Eastern Sword Domain did not have such a thing, and there were no records about it.
"Could it be that there were people on the Ancient Sword Continent who practiced finger arts before?" Chu Mu subconsciously had such a thought, but he soon shook his head. His understanding of the Ancient Sword Continent was still far from enough. Only when his strength reached a certain level would he be able to come in contact with more mysteries.
In any case, he could also practice the Gold Piercing Sword Finger because he had the Lacerating Mentality.
The golden sword light that the black-robed man had used his finger to perform should be the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. Its power was also extraordinary. Chu Mu immediately decided to practice this secret skill.
Besides practicing the Gold Piercing Sword Finger, Chu Mu also wanted to study the Stone Shaking Wave Sword and the Space Splitting Sword Attack again. He wanted to integrate one percent of his sword aura into them to increase their power.
Once he succeeded, his strength would increase by a lot.
This time, Chu Mu directly paid two thousand low rank soul stones and booked a room for twenty days.
Chu Mu had obtained a lot of soul stones from killing those Qi Hai Realm sword cultivators in the Chaoyao Mountains. Counting them together, he had obtained a few hundred thousand soul stones. One thousand soul stones were nothing. Plus, he had also obtained a lot of demon nuclei, which could be sold for a lot of soul stones.
Chu Mu first practiced the Gold Piercing Sword Finger.
As the name suggested, the Gold Piercing Sword Finger was related to the gold element. It needed to be activated with the gold element to be able to unleash its power.
A normal sword cultivator would use the gold element sword Qi as the main element and the Metal Mentality to perform the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. Chu Mu did not have any gold element sword Qi, but he had a variation of the Metal Mentality. The Lacerating Mentality was even sharper than the Metal Mentality.
Chu Mu spent an entire day studying the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. After breaking through to the Qi Hai Realm, his soul power did not increase, but he could feel that something had changed. It was as if he had turned from a rock into a crystal. His power of understanding had also increased. Even though the Gold Piercing Sword Finger was very mysterious and was not any weaker than the Broken Star Sword Art, Chu Mu was still able to fully understand it in just one day.
Then, Chu Mu spent another day thinking and simulating the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. Because the Gold Piercing Sword Finger mainly used the gold element sword Qi and the Metal Mentality as a supplement, Chu Mu did not have any gold element sword Qi, so he had to make some modifications.
Three days later, Chu Mu finally finished modifying the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. He changed it to using the Lacerating Mentality as the main element sword Qi and the Sky Yuan Sword Qi as a supplement. Although the penetrating power of the Sky Yuan Sword Qi was not as good as the gold element sword Qi, the Lacerating Mentality was more powerful than the Metal Piercing Sword Finger.
Using another two days, Chu Mu had finally mastered the Gold Piercing Sword Finger.
Putting his left index and middle fingers together like a sword, a dark gold color suddenly condensed on the tip of his finger. The Sky Yuan Sword Qi flowed through his meridians and poured into the dark gold color, diluting the color and turning it into a golden color. The golden color became more and more intense, emitting a frightening sharpness.
Chu Mu took out a middle rank sword and his Golden Piercing Sword Finger instantly shot towards the middle rank sword. A dazzling golden sword ray broke through the air and instantly hit the middle rank sword's body. An ear-piercing sound of metal clashing rang out and the golden sword ray shattered. A small finger-sized hole appeared on the middle rank sword's body, penetrating half of the sword.
And this was the result of Chu Mu's initial mastery of the Gold Piercing Sword Finger. If he could master it completely, it would be even more powerful, and it would not be a problem for him to pierce through mid rank swords.
Out of the twenty days, there were still fifteen days left. Chu Mu rested for a bit before starting to study the Stone Shaking Wave Sword.
Using the Stone Shaking power as the bone and the Sky Yuan Sword Qi and the Tearing mentality as the flesh and blood, Chu Mu broke down the Stone Shaking Wave Sword and studied it one by one. Then, he tried to merge the one percent of the complete sword aura.
It was a difficult process. If it were not for the fact that Chu Mu's comprehensive ability had increased after breaking through to the Qi Hai Realm, it would have taken him a lot of time.
Five days later, he finished his study. Another five days later, the new Stone Shaking Wave Sword was created.
Using the Stone Shaking power as the bone, the Sky Yuan Sword Qi and the Tearing mentality as the flesh and blood, and the one percent of the complete sword aura as the soul, the new Stone Shaking Wave Sword was even more complete and powerful. What was worth mentioning was that during this study, the peak level of the Stone Shaking power had reached Dacheng level, and its power had become even more powerful.
With the experience of studying the Stone Shaking Wave Sword, he was able to study the Sky Shattering Sword Attack even faster.
Three days later, he finished his study of the Sky Shattering Sword Attack. Chu Mu used another two days to train the new Sky Shattering Sword Attack.
Using the Tearing mentality as the bone, the Sky Yuan Sword Qi and the Stone Shaking power as the flesh and blood, and the one percent of the complete sword aura as the soul, the new Sky Shattering Sword Attack was completely formed.
