"Alright."
Chu Mu gave it some thought and agreed to Ma Rulong's mediation.
Originally, Chu Mu did not plan to deal with the Red Men's Association and left it to Ou Chengluo. Regardless of whether he could successfully take revenge on the Red Men's Association, he would at least have a clear goal.
Previously, he had rejected Ma Rulong's first request and embarrassed him. If he rejected him again, it was inevitable that he would lose face and become angry out of shame. Offending an Original Realm swordsman for no reason was not something to be happy about.
"Very good." Ma Rulong smiled as five mid-grade bronze spirit stone cards appeared in his hand and handed them to Chu Mu.
A mid-grade bronze spirit stone card represented ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
Then, the two chatted for a while before Ma Rulong stood up and left.
After all, between a Qi Sea swordsman and an Original Realm swordsman, there was a huge difference in age, experience, and strength. It was like an old man who had experienced the vicissitudes of life and a hot-blooded youth who had just made his debut. It was quite difficult for the two to find a common topic to discuss.
After Ma Rulong left, Chu Mu flicked his sword Qi to close the door and pulled out the Monster Slaying Sword.
Demon Slaying Sword's sword tip and blade were extremely thin and sharp. It constantly emitted strands of white light. The white light was extremely dazzling and Chu Mu had no choice but to squint his eyes to feel better.
With a light wave, the Monster Slaying Sword made a slight sound of breaking the wind and left a faint trace in the air. The trace was thinner than a strand of hair.
Chu Mu took out another top-grade upper grade sword and held it in his left hand. He raised the Monster Slaying Sword with his right hand and chopped down without injecting any sword Qi or mental state. It was like a flash of lightning. With an obscure sound, the top-grade upper grade sword was cut in half and fell to the ground. The cut was as smooth as a mirror.
Although a peak high-grade sword was not as good as an extreme grade sword, it was very close to an ordinary extreme grade sword. Under normal circumstances, an ordinary extreme grade sword could at most leave a small mark on a peak high-grade sword. Even some peak high-grade swords could not break a peak high-grade sword in one strike.
"Good sword …" Chu Mu tossed the high-grade sword aside and gently ran his finger across the blade of the Demon Slaying Sword. The cold touch seemed to freeze his finger. Chu Mu sighed softly. His eyes were filled with intoxication. He didn't feel the coldness at all. His finger gently touched the tip of the sword.
Swordsmen loved their swords, and so did swordmasters, especially good swords.
For Chu Mu, who practiced the Sword Observation Technique, the Demon-slaying Sword was the best sword he had ever seen. He loved it so much that he couldn't put it down.
"If the Monster Slaying Sword is like this, then what about the Monster Slaying Sword?" A thought suddenly flashed through Chu Mu's mind. He couldn't wait to see the Monster Slaying Sword. Unfortunately, he couldn't find it.
Sheathing the sword, Chu Mu stored the Demon-slaying Sword in his spatial bracelet. With the Demon-slaying Sword, Chu Mu's attack power increased again.
It could be said that Chu Mu's goal of training in the outside world had been achieved. Staying here would not be of much help. Immediately, he thought of leaving Demon Shaker City.
The million-strong monster army of Demon Shaker Mountain had been completely wiped out. According to Ma Rulong and the others' estimates, there would not be another monster uprising for at least a hundred years. The number of monsters in Demon Shaker Mountain was unprecedentedly low.
With Chu Mu's current strength, mid-level monsters were no match for him. Mid-level overlords were too strong. In a one-on-one fight, Chu Mu had no chance of winning, even if he had the Demon-slaying Sword. As for high-level monsters, there was no need to even mention them.
"First, I'll take the Rising Will Pill and raise my Tearing Concept to Dacheng. After my strength has increased, I'll take care of everything and leave Demon Shaker City for the Border City." Chu Mu thought to himself. He took out the jade box containing the Rising Will Pill from his spatial bracelet.
It was nighttime, so no one would come to disturb him.
Chu Mu adjusted his breathing. After adjusting his essence, Qi, and spirit to the best state, he opened the jade box and took out the Rising Will Pill.
The Rising Will Pill was the size of a longan fruit. Its color was golden and round. A faint halo flashed through it. A wisp of fragrance filled the air. It was impossible to describe what kind of fragrance it was. Just smelling it made one feel refreshed.
Swallowing the Rising Will Pill, it immediately dissolved into a clear stream that flowed through his meridians and into his mind, entering his spiritual world.
Chu Mu only felt that his mind had been strengthened and magnified a few times. It had never been so clear before. Even if he did not focus on it, he could still feel all kinds of enlightenment.
Every second was precious. Chu Mu took this opportunity to focus on the dark golden sword ray in his mental world and comprehend it.
Cutting, sharpness, sharpness … all kinds of characteristics of the Tearing Concept appeared in Chu Mu's mind one by one. Chu Mu continued to deepen his understanding of it.
Chu Mu's body started to emit a sharp aura. Strands of dark golden light that were as thin as hair started to appear and wrap around his body, as if they were going to tear the space apart.
… …
"Such a sharp power of the concept. It is a mutated concept, even more terrifying than the Cutting Concept." In the room on the highest floor of the Windward Inn, Ma Rulong's face was full of surprise as he mumbled to himself.
Soon after, Ma Rulong secretly smiled and shook his head, "At the age of twenty, he has already comprehended a mutated concept that is even more powerful than the Cutting Concept. His sword aura has reached perfection, and his cultivation has reached the Initial Qi Hai realm. He can even injure a mid level tyrant beast. Genius, a true genius. It will not be hard for him to reach the Origin Realm. How could such a genius not have a master? I have been too reckless. "
In fact, Chu Mu did not have a master on the Ancient Sword Continent other than the one who taught him basic sword arts on earth. Everything he had was obtained through his own hard work.
If it were someone else, they would definitely be willing to take an Origin Realm master as their master. Especially if it was an Origin Realm master who took the initiative to ask, they would definitely be overjoyed.
Unfortunately, Chu Mu was Chu Mu.
In his eyes, an Origin Realm master was a powerful swordsman, not a powerful warrior.
A powerful swordsman and a powerful warrior were two different concepts. For Chu Mu, the Origin Realm was just a realm, a realm that he would definitely reach. He had complete confidence in it.
Therefore, when many people were in awe and even worshipping an Origin Realm master, Chu Mu's heart was filled with excitement and battle intent even though he knew that he would not be able to block even one sword Qi from an Origin Realm swordsman.
People like Ferocious Sword Void Slaughterer only had respect for Origin Realm swordsmen, not worship them.
One's mentality determined one's achievements.
Those who dared to have a battle intent towards an Origin Realm swordsman would definitely have great achievements in the future. Even if they did not die halfway, they would still be able to reach the Origin Realm. However, those who only worshipped an Origin Realm master would find it extremely difficult to break through to the Origin Realm. Even if they were lucky enough to break through, they would only be able to reach the Origin Realm for the rest of their lives.
Chu Mu had his own path, a path where both swordsman and swordsman coexisted. He was the only one on this path, and there was no one to guide him. Plus, he was extremely ambitious. The Origin Realm was only a goal in his heart, and he had bigger goals in the future.
If Ma Rulong knew about Chu Mu's thoughts, he would definitely bitterly smile.
Time slowly passed, and the night became as dark as water. Originally, one could still hear the roars of beasts coming from the Chaoyao Mountain, but now, it was extremely quiet.
Chu Mu's body was surrounded by strands of dark gold. More and more of them appeared, indicating that his understanding of the concept of tearing was gradually deepening.
The night went by silently. The sun rose into the sky, shining with a golden light. A new day had arrived, full of vitality.
The dark gold light around Chu Mu's body completely disappeared. He opened his eyes, revealing his dark gold pupils that were extremely sharp. His gaze seemed to be able to tear through everything.
After one night, the medicinal effect of the Will Increasing Pill disappeared, and Chu Mu's understanding of the concept of tearing had come to an end.
"Seventy percent …" Exhaling, Chu Mu said softly. The dark gold in his pupils faded and disappeared, returning to a deep black.
Seventy percent of the concept of tearing meant that he had just entered the Dacheng realm. In terms of power, he had reached a hundred percent of the normal concept.
Whether it was the Stone Shaking Wave Sword, the Sky Splitting Sword, or the Iron Chopping Sword, their power had all increased because of the improvement of the concept of tearing.
Next, Chu Mu took out mid-grade spirit stones and started to cultivate the Heaven Origin Sword Qi, sword arts, and so on.
When it was close to noon, there was a knock on the door of the guest room. It was the waiter who brought in the food and a letter.
Chu Mu opened the letter and read it, frowning slightly.
The letter was written by Fang Hao, and the content was to ask Chu Mu to come to the Demon Shaker City ten miles away from the city to settle their grudges before this evening. At the end of the letter, it also stated that if Chu Mu did not agree, they would continue to stay in the city and keep an eye on Chu Mu. Once Chu Mu left the city, they would follow up and take action.
"Alright." Crumpling the letter into a ball and throwing it into the trash can, Chu Mu enjoyed the delicious meal in peace.
There were still a few hours before evening, and there was plenty of time. Chu Mu was not in a hurry at all. He agreed with Fang Hao's suggestion, and it was time to settle their grudges.
Part of the meal was demonic beast meat, which contained powerful energy and was beneficial to the body.
With millions of demonic beasts dead, at least half of the corpses were collected, and the edible parts were cut and processed. Now, there was no shortage of meat in the entire Demon Shaker City.
For ordinary people and Sword Qi cultivators, this was good news, as it could strengthen their bodies and increase their potential. Their Sword Qi cultivation speed would also increase, and they would enter the Qi Transformation Realm earlier.
After finishing the meal, Chu Mu placed the plate outside the door, closed the door, and went downstairs.
Most of the tables in the lobby of the inn were empty, and only a small part of the tables were occupied by swordsmen. It was not full either, which was a big difference from the past.
"Lord Chu." When someone saw Chu Mu, he immediately stood up and saluted with his sword. The others also quickly stood up with a respectful expression.
This time, the millions of demonic beasts had made Chu Mu famous, and he was truly recognized by the swordsmen of the Demon Shaker City. They felt respect for him from the bottom of their hearts.
Chu Mu smiled and nodded. He walked out of the inn and walked along the street towards the outside of the city.
As he walked, he suddenly became vigilant and subconsciously took a step back. A sharp Sword Light silently stabbed at him from the side. Chu Mu pulled out his sword to counterattack, but when his sword missed, another Sword Light slashed at him from behind.
This Sword Light was light and subtle, and it was hard to detect. It was unpredictable and full of strangeness, and it would often appear from unimaginable angles, making it impossible to guard against. However, the Sword Light did not have any killing intent.
Chu Mu counterattacked with his sword, and each of his sword accurately blocked the Sword Light's attack, causing it to fail.
"Your swordsmanship is indeed very powerful." A hoarse voice came and then disappeared. Chu Mu vaguely saw a figure walking away.
"Your swordsmanship is also very powerful." Chu Mu smiled and said softly as he sheathed his sword. (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.)
