Supreme Sword, also known as Supreme Sword Master Chen Bu 'er.
"One of the three Sons of Swords …" Chu Mu muttered to himself. He could not help but take a few more glances at Chen Bu 'er.
Just from his appearance, it was impossible to tell that this young man who always had a smile on his face was a Sword Master because the aura he gave off was not strong at all. It was like a breeze, and there was no sense of oppression at all.
Chen Bu 'er was the strongest among the 22 people. He accompanied them to ensure their safety and prevent accidents from happening. On the other hand, he was escorting a treasure that was extremely important to the Sword Mansion.
The Purple Crowned Crane and the Red Crowned Crane belonged to the same race. They were like commoners and nobles among the demonic beasts. Thus, there were only a few thousand Purple Crowned Cranes in the King's Mansion. They were very precious.
In terms of flying speed, the Purple Crowned Crane was not as fast as the Wind-Winged Dragon, but it was not slow either. In terms of endurance, it was above the Wind-Winged Dragon. After flying for a day and a night, it could continue flying after resting for four hours.
In the beginning, everyone would chat casually. After a few days, everyone fell silent and sat on the back of the Purple Crowned Crane to meditate.
…
"I was not as strong as you when I was your age." Chen Bu 'er sat beside Chu Mu and said softly. His tone was somewhat joyful. His voice had a very unique rhythm that would make one feel that it was unique and unforgettable after hearing it.
"I still have a long way to go," Chu Mu said with a smile. He did not feel uncomfortable or nervous when facing Chen Bu 'er.
"Huangfu Huangtian said that he would deal with you in ten years. He was not joking." Chen Bu 'er said softly, "There are still nine and a half years left. I hope you can become a Sword Master by then."
"I will." Chu Mu's tone was calm, revealing great confidence.
"If you can fight with Huangfu Huangtian by then, maybe my hands will be itchy too," Chen Bu 'er said with a smile. He leaned against the tree trunk leisurely and did not say anything else.
Chu Mu smiled and closed his eyes to meditate.
The others heard the short conversation between him and Chen Bu 'er and felt a little envious because Chen Bu' er would not take the initiative to talk to them.
The night was silent. The sky had just brightened. Everyone set off again after eating.
Rushing from the Great Kun Dynasty to the East Sage City would take a relatively long time, so everyone had no choice but to set off in advance.
Every day, other than riding the purple-crowned crane, he rested. Whether it was on the purple-crowned crane's back or resting time, Chu Mu spent most of his time in meditation.
Half a year of cultivation in the Wang Mansion had allowed his Lacerating Concept to reach 94%. He had also comprehended Sword Intent, successfully taking the second step of Sword Dao and comprehending Sword Intent to 30%.
The power of the Three Parts Sword Intent was several times stronger than the Extreme Sword Force from before. The difference between the two was like the difference between wood and steel.
Every day, they only rested for six hours and used eighteen hours to travel. It took them half a year to reach the East Sage City from the Great Kun Sword Mansion.
East Sage City — the number one city in the Eastern Sword Region!
Majestic, majestic, ancient, and immortal auras were all present in the city. Even a Sword Saint like Chen Bu 'er would feel insignificant in front of this immemorial city.
Perhaps, only those who had reached the Sword Of Gojoseon's level could avoid this influence.
"Let's go and rest in the city first. The battle for providence will start soon. You all need to adjust your state." Baili Jiang Chen woke up from his shock and waved his hand, waking everyone up.
Since it was their first time in the East Sage City, the normal thing to do was to walk around and take a good look at this ancient city. However, Chu Mu and the others had been traveling for half a year. Even though they had rested every day, they were still quite tired after a long time, especially in terms of mental exhaustion.
There was a East Sage Palace in the East Sage City. It was the ruler of the East Sage City. As one of the ten Great Sword Mansions participating in the battle for providence, their accommodations had already been arranged.
The Great Kun Garden was the temporary residence of the Great Kun Sword Mansion. It was very big, and there were artificial mountains, ponds, pavilions, and so on. There was also a bamboo forest. The scenery was very beautiful, and the Spiritual Qi was several times more abundant than the Heavenly Sword Tower in the Wang Mansion. The living environment was very comfortable and pleasant.
No matter how abundant the Spiritual Qi was, it would not be of any help to Chu Mu's cultivation. However, places with abundant Spiritual Qi often had beautiful environments that made people feel comfortable and relaxed from the bottom of their hearts. Not only was it beneficial for living, but it was also beneficial for cultivation.
Chu Mu also had a good sleep. When he woke up six hours later, he felt refreshed. Regardless of whether it was his physical or mental exhaustion, they were all gone.
After walking out of the room, Chu Mu walked into the forest outside. He did not think about anything, and his mind was in a state of emptiness.
Coincidentally, the other nine Sword Heroes also appeared one after another. They did not look tired at all, and their eyes were shining brightly. Clearly, they had all recovered to their peak states after resting.
They chatted as they walked, and unknowingly, they walked out of the Great Kun Garden.
"Our Great Kun Sword Mansion declined after a great calamity sixty years ago. Since then, we have been at the bottom of every battle for providence. This has also prevented our Great Kun Sword Mansion from rising again." Sky Sword Hero Fu Yunxiao said as he walked. His face flashed with incomparable determination, "This time, we will reverse the previous bottom-ranking. We must defeat the other sword mansions and obtain more providence, allowing the Great Kun Sword Mansion to rise again."
"Senior Brother Fu is right. This time, we must do our best to rewrite history and create glory again," Blazing Fire Sword Hero Long Lie said.
All of them were rubbing their hands, waiting for the battle for providence to begin. They wanted to defeat the Sword Heroes of the other sword mansions and obtain more providence, allowing the Great Kun Sword Mansion to gradually regain its glory from sixty years ago.
"Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue when you talk big?" Not far away, a cold snort sounded. It was filled with disdain, "For the past few decades, the Great Kun Sword Mansion has been at the bottom. This is an indisputable fact. No matter how big your words are, it will not change this fact."
Chu Mu and the rest looked over and saw a group of people walking over from the opposite side.
The living quarters of the ten major sword mansions in the East Sage Hall were arranged very cleverly. In the middle was a circular empty space. It was very spacious, and in the middle of the empty space was a garden.
The mansions of the ten major sword mansions were located at the edge of the circular empty space. What was more interesting was that the Great Kun Garden was directly opposite the Great Qian Garden.
It was unknown if it was a coincidence or if the East Sage Hall did this intentionally. In the past, before the start of the battle for providence, there would inevitably be some conflicts here.
The group of people who spoke walked out from the Great Qian Garden. They were the Sword Heroes of the Great Qian Sword Mansion.
"Whether I am talking big or not, you will know when the time comes," Fu Yunxiao waved his sleeves and said in a deep voice.
"I don't think there is a need to wait. Why don't you let us know now?" This was another Sword Hero of the Great Qian Sword Mansion and he said cheekily.
"Let's go," Chu Mu said plainly and turned to walk towards the Great Kun Garden.
"Hmph." The Blazing Fire Sword Hero and the rest snorted. They glanced at the nine Sword Heroes of the Great Qian Sword Mansion and turned to walk towards the Great Kun Garden.
There was no benefit to having a conflict here. The best counterattack would be to wait until the battle for providence began before using all their strength to defeat the other party and snatch the providence from the other party.
"Stop right there. Which one of you is Chu Mu?" One of the nine Sword Heroes said coldly.
They didn't want to cause a conflict here as it wasn't a wise choice.
"What can I do for you?" Chu Mu stopped and turned around.
"You are Chu Mu? You are indeed very young. " The Sword Hero who spoke walked a few steps forward and stared coldly at Chu Mu. He had a weird smile on his face and said, "Peak of the Qi Hai Realm. It seems like the Great Kun Sword Mansion has no one else. They even sent a Peak of the Qi Hai Realm student to participate in the battle for providence."
"Junior Brother Yao, you can't say that. He is a new Sword Hero, and I heard that he became a Sword Hero at the age of twenty. He is the only one in the Great Kun Dynasty in the past thousand years. His future is limitless." Another Sword Hero from the Great Qian Sword Mansion said with a weird tone.
Among the ten dynasties, the Great Kun Dynasty had the least number of Sword Heroes. The other nine dynasties all had at least one hundred Sword Heroes. No matter what, the appearance of a new Sword Hero was not a small matter, and it would attract the attention of everyone.
The other dynasties already knew that there was a new Sword Hero in the Great Kun Dynasty. His title was Zhen Tian, and all kinds of information about this Zhen Tian Sword Hero had been dug up.
Becoming a Sword Hero at the age of twenty was indeed shocking, but in other dynasties, it wasn't as if such geniuses didn't exist. Adding on the fact that hearing was false and seeing was believing, as well as other factors, it caused them to look down on Chu Mu, a twenty year old Sword Hero.
"Sword Hero Zhen Tian … What an imposing manner. I heard that a few years ago, you defeated an Inner House student who came to the Great Kun Sword Mansion for an exchange. That Sword Hero with the surname Yao sneered and said, "Remember, that is only child's play. The battle between Sword Heroes is the real battle. When the battle for providence begins, you better pray that you don't meet me. Otherwise, I will let you know how it feels to be defeated by a single sword strike."
"I'll accompany you anytime. I hope you have the strength." Chu Mu responded indifferently.
In fact, aside from Chu Mu, the other Sword Heroes were all at the peak of the consummation of the Qi Hai Realm. Although Chu Mu's strength had not been tested, he was confident that even Mu Longcheng might not be able to defeat him.
In Chu Mu's opinion, the threat of this Sword Hero with the surname Yao was not worth mentioning. The battle for providence was a battle with the Sword Heroes of the other Sword Mansions. Whether one defeated the other party or was defeated by the other party, they would meet sooner or later.
After Chu Mu's group of ten returned to the Great Kun Garden, Chu Mu asked about the information of the Great Kun Sword Mansion's Sword Heroes.
Just then, Baili Jiang He came back from outside with a book.
"This is the information of the one hundred Sword Heroes from the ten great Sword Mansions participating in the battle for providence. You all are among them. Take a good look and understand your opponents," Baili Jianghe instructed as he put down the book.
"Just what I wanted." Jiang Lichen smiled as he grabbed the book and started flipping through it.
Only by knowing the enemy and knowing oneself can one be undefeated. On the surface, one might look down on the enemy, but in one's heart, one had to value the enemy. Only then would one not make the mistake of underestimating the enemy, which would lead to a regretful defeat. (To be continued.
