His long silver hair fell to his shoulders, and his eyes were long and narrow like blades. The corners of his eyes were cold and sharp, and any swordsman who met his gaze felt as if their bodies were being torn apart.
Celestial Sword Hero, Jue Wudao!
Before Zong Qingtian appeared, only Yan Jiuyou could compete with him among the strongest Sword Heroes in the entire Central Main Sword Region.
He stood at the top of Tongtian Mountain, as if he was the center of the mountain. Everyone's eyes fell on him.
Following that, the Heavenly Sword Hero Ranking changed. Jue Wudao, who was ranked third, suddenly jumped to first place. Yan Jiuyou dropped to second place, and Zong Qingtian dropped to third place. They had all reached the 31st floor.
As for Gu Jianghe, he had always been at the 29th floor. He didn't seem to have come to challenge the Heavenly Sword Tower. Of course, he might have challenged it, but he didn't pass the 29th floor.
"I'm going to challenge the Sword Tower." Xiao Qianfeng's figure flashed, and he rushed into the Heavenly Sword Tower before anyone else.
The last time he challenged the Sword Tower was more than three months ago. Now that he had reorganized his strength, he would definitely be able to get a better ranking against those fixed virtual swordsmen.
Jue Wudao didn't say a word and left the top of Tongtian Mountain, leaving behind a shocking back view.
"Xiao Qianfeng …" In the crowd, an elder muttered with a gloomy face.
After a long time, Xiao Qianfeng also flew out of the Heavenly Sword Tower. He had been defeated and killed on the 27th floor.
Not long after, the ranking on the Heavenly Sword Hero Ranking changed again. Xiao Qianfeng rose from 13th to 10th.
"It's my turn," Chu Mu said. He used the Flying Swan Illusory Steps and entered the Heavenly Sword Tower in the blink of an eye.
"I …" A swordsman who was approaching the Heavenly Sword Tower fell a step behind and was about to curse. Xiao Qianfeng's cold gaze fell on him, causing him to involuntarily shiver.
"That's the Zhen Tian Sword Hero, Chu Mu."
"Fifth on the Heavenly Sword Hero Ranking, he's here to challenge the Heavenly Sword Tower again."
"I don't think it's that useful. It's only been a few days since he last challenged the Heavenly Sword Tower. How much could his strength have improved?"
The most important thing for challenging the Heavenly Sword Tower was one's combat talent, and then the combat experience derived from combat talent. This was because the combat talent and combat experience of the virtual swordsmen in the Heavenly Sword Tower were fixed and would not change at all.
Therefore, the more battle experience a swordsman had, the more they knew how to fight, and naturally, they could achieve better results.
However, in just a few days, they did not think that Chu Mu's combat talent could improve by much.
After Chu Mu entered the first floor, he entered the second floor in less than three breaths of time.
"Chop Iron!"
Chu Mu directly used a Sword Master's Ultimate Sword Technique to kill one of the virtual swordsmen. However, Chu Mu did not kill the second virtual swordsman. Instead, he blocked his attack.
Ten breaths later, the illusory swordsman attacked more than a hundred times. Unfortunately, it didn't use any killing sword skills similar to Chop Iron. Chu Mu finished off the illusory swordsman with one sword and entered the third floor.
…
Xiao Qianfeng stared at the Heavenly Sword Tower and suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He was locked on by a fierce murderous intent, and his body almost stiffened.
He quickly turned his head and saw a pair of gloomy eyes filled with murderous intent. It was the Buried Heaven Sword Sect's Eighth Elder. However, Xiao Qianfeng smiled coldly and looked away as if he did not care. He looked at the Heavenly Sword Tower.
The top of the Heavenly Sword Mountain was a very special place. Swordsmen from all over the world gathered here. Some were strong, some were weak, some had no one to rely on, and some had amazing forces. In short, the top of the Heavenly Sword Mountain could be said to be a very mixed place, but it was not chaotic at all.
There was a written rule here that the strong could not bully the weak.
It sounded ridiculous, but there was once an incident where the descendant of a powerful elder from one of the top ten sword sects was killed here by a swordsman who was one level higher than him. It even affected many innocent people, which angered the elder and the elders of the innocent people. They directly uprooted the murderer and the power behind him.
After that, the top ten sword sects jointly issued a rule that no fighting was allowed on the top of the Heavenly Sword Mountain. Otherwise, they would kill without mercy. However, this rule was not practical. After all, how could there be a lack of fighting in the world of swordsmen?
The rule was changed. A swordsman of a higher level could not attack a swordsman of a lower level. Even if a swordsman of a lower level provoked them, it was not allowed unless the swordsman of a lower level attacked first. However, there were no swordsman of a lower level who took the initiative to provoke a swordsman of a higher level. After all, the rule only applied to the top of the Heavenly Sword Mountain. Once they left the range of the top of the Heavenly Sword Mountain and were not restricted by the rule, the consequences could be imagined.
Swordsmen of the same level were not restricted by this rule. Of course, the prerequisite was that you had to be able to withstand the anger of the swordsman present.
After all, fighting here was very likely to affect others. If you did not have enough deterrence, you would undoubtedly be increasing your own hatred.
Therefore, even though the Buried Heaven Sword Sect's Eighth Elder wanted nothing more than to immediately capture Xiao Qianfeng, he had to forcefully suppress this thought. He did not want to be killed for violating the rule.
Although he was an insignificant ant to the ten great sword sects, the ten great sword sects would still take action to protect the rule they had set.
"Xiao Qianfeng, I will wait here until you leave the top of the Heavenly Sword Mountain forever," the Buried Heaven Sword Sect's Eighth Elder threatened.
Xiao Qianfeng ignored him as if he did not hear him, causing his expression to turn even uglier.
Soon, the tenth level of the Heavenly Sword Tower also lit up, indicating that Chu Mu had reached the tenth level. This speed was not only faster than the previous time, but it was also shockingly fast.
From the second level to the fifth level, Chu Mu had used Chop Iron or Point Kill once on every level. In the end, the virtual swordsman indeed did not use similar ultimate sword techniques. While disappointed, Chu Mu had other ideas in his mind.
That was to use Chop Iron and Point Kill more of the two ultimate sword techniques, as well as the Inverted Space Steps, which he had only scratched the surface of. Although it consumed a lot of energy, as long as he passed the level, he would be able to return to his peak state. Such opportunities were rare.
As the saying went, practice makes perfect. By using it more often, he could better find his shortcomings and improve them.
After passing the tenth level, Chu Mu had some understanding. The consumption of Chop Iron and Point Kill decreased slightly, and the Inverted Space Steps also improved slightly.
The level of the Inverted Space Steps was higher than the third level of the Flying Swan Illusory Sky Steps, and the domain involved was more profound. To be able to scratch the surface of it was truly beyond Chu Mu's expectations.
The slightest improvement of the Inverted Space Steps would undoubtedly require a lot of effort to deduce. Now that it could be improved slightly, it was a joyous occasion.
He entered the eleventh level!
Chop Iron, Point Kill, Inverted Space Steps!
Chu Mu instantly disappeared and appeared behind a virtual swordsman, killing him in one strike.
The Inverted Space Steps had already surpassed common sense and involved the incomparably profound domain of space.
The twelfth level!
The thirteenth level!
The fourteenth level!
… …
The swordsmen outside the Heavenly Sword Tower were all shocked.
A few days ago, a swordsman who had personally witnessed Chu Mu's challenge rubbed his eyes hard, thinking that he was hallucinating. "Why is he so fast?"
"What's going on?"
The swordsmen didn't understand. Chu Mu's speed in the tower was too fast. Compared to Jue Wudao, he wasn't inferior at all. In fact, a few swordsmen with sharper senses discovered that Chu Mu's speed in the tower was slightly faster than Jue Wudao's.
Xiao Qianfeng stared at the tower that dimmed and lit up level by level, his eyes glowing.
Chu Mu was his junior brother. With such an achievement, not only was he not jealous, he was actually happy. Of course, his fighting spirit was even stronger.
Very quickly, Chu Mu passed the twentieth level and entered the twenty-first level.
"Boss Chu … is so strong …" Xia You's mouth was wide open in shock.
On the twenty-first level, there were twenty-one powerful virtual swordsmen. When they joined forces, they were extremely powerful. Last time, Chu Mu had taken a long time to find the best opportunity to kill them.
However, this time, it didn't take long for Chu Mu to find the best opportunity and instakill him.
Next, it was time for him to perform. Chop Iron, Reverse Air Step, Kill. Soon, all twenty-one powerful virtual swordsmen were dead.
For Chu Mu, he had already challenged these virtual swordsmen. Even if he changed his moves again, it was very limited and not difficult. It was as if the same move would be ineffective the second time.
Very quickly, Chu Mu reached the twenty-ninth level again.
Last time, he had reached the twenty-ninth level and was killed after killing three virtual swordsmen. This time, Chu Mu wanted to get a better result. If possible, it would be best if he could pass the twenty-ninth level and enter the thirtieth level.
At this point, the difficulty of each level increased by several times. Another top-grade sword appeared in Chu Mu's left hand.
Dacheng's Dual Sword Technique!
After many years of practicing the Dual Sword Technique, Dacheng could use different sword moves and sword skills with greater power.
With two swords in hand, Chu Mu's aura suddenly changed. He used the Flying Swan Illusory Steps and quickly dodged, looking for the best opportunity to attack.
With two swords, Chu Mu's blocking ability was stronger, and his survivability was increased by several times.
Dodge, block!
Seizing the opportunity, he used the Reverse Air Step. With one step, he suddenly appeared behind a virtual swordsman. Chop Iron, Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill, Kill.
The twenty-ninth floor's virtual swordsman gave Chu Mu an enormous amount of pressure. Chu Mu's fight was very difficult. Because he was using the ultimate kill sword technique and Reverse Air Step, his Sky-Desolation Sword Aura was quickly being consumed.
With a slash, Chu Mu's back was cut open. Blood spurted out. He also quickly counterattacked with his sword.
In the end, Chu Mu killed twenty-nine virtual swordsmen at the price of being injured three times. He successfully passed the twenty-ninth level and entered the thirtieth level.
The three wounds were all avoided by Chu Mu.
"It's lit up. The thirtieth level is lit up."
"He's reached the thirtieth level."
"How can it be? It's only been a few days."
The thirtieth level had just lit up. In less than ten breaths of time, a figure flew out and landed safely.
In a short while, Chu Mu's ranking on the Heavenly Sword Ranking changed. He pushed Gu Jianghe down and took fourth place. (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.)
