But don't worry, the Dominator of Six Realms will not stop updating.
"Kill!"
The eight-sided Desolate Sky Swords pierced out. The sharp power instantly penetrated the sand beast's surface and directly hit the sand core.
With a pop, the hard sand core shattered under the impact of the Laceration Ultimacy, Mountain Quaking Energy, and Sword Intent.
The Sand Beast, which was known to have an immortal body, exploded into yellow sand that filled the sky. It spread out in all directions like a sand rain.
The sand beast was a type of exotic beast. Its body was made of sand and was constantly flowing. It could greatly weaken an attack. Moreover, even if it was scattered, as long as the sand core was not broken, it could instantly reform. It was known as an immortal body.
The sand core of the sand beast could move freely in its body. In other words, it was very difficult to break the sand core through the surface of the sand.
The normal method that swordsmen used to deal with sand beasts was to use powerful sword skills to disperse the sand beasts. Then, they would destroy the sand core before it could reform into a new body.
However, it was not easy. It required extraordinary eyesight, incomparably fast attack speed, and a sufficiently powerful attack. Only by combining the three could one destroy the sand core and truly kill the sand beast.
However, very few swordsmen would destroy the sand cores because each sand core was very valuable. They would often join forces to destroy the sand beasts and then immediately use their methods to capture the sand cores. They would then use their sword qi and other powers to temporarily seal the sand cores and bring them back to sell.
This was also the reason why many swordsmen entered the Fiery Wind Desert. Of course, there were also some swordsmen who entered to gain experience. They would fight the sand beasts and resist the harsh environment of the Fiery Wind Desert to improve themselves.
Suddenly, there was a loud rumble. Formless sound waves spread out, turning into huge waves that rolled out. The sand in the Windy Fire Desert was immediately swept up, turning into golden waves that surged over.
With the protective sword aura around his body, Chu Mu faced the hundred-meter-tall golden wave and soared into the sky. He appeared a thousand meters above the Fiery Wind Desert and looked in the direction of the rumbling sound.
Subsequently, the Wind-Fire Desert began to tremble.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! An astonishing whistling sound could be heard. Golden astral winds seemed to be blowing from outer space. They whistled and seemed to be everywhere. When they blew past Chu Mu, Chu Mu's protective sword aura began to fluctuate. It felt as if it was about to be blown away. Chu Mu had no choice but to increase the output of the Heavenly Wasteland Sword Essence to forcefully stabilize the protective sword aura.
The astral winds were very frightening. Without protection, Chu Mu could not guarantee how long he would be able to withstand the onslaught of the astral winds, even with the second level of the Heavenly Wasteland Sword Body.
In the next breath, there was a bang. The yellow sand below him exploded. A scarlet flame shot out like a fountain, reaching a hundred meters in the air. An extremely high temperature spread out, causing the surrounding temperature to rise by ten times. It was unbearably hot.
Earth Fire!
The temperature of the earth fire was too high. It was not inferior to the Azure Steel Fire required to forge a Royal Grade Sword. Moreover, it was even more violent than the Azure Steel Fire. Once a True Realm swordsman came in contact with it, they would die on the spot.
Even Chu Mu did not want to test the fire with his own body.
Fortunately, he was a thousand meters above the Fiery Wind Desert. No matter how powerful the earth fire was, it would not be able to reach him.
"This commotion should be caused by the appearance of the ancient sword tomb." Chu Mu thought to himself as he turned into a stream of light and flew away at lightning speed.
At the same time, there were many figures flying in the sky above the Fiery Wind Desert. Some were alone, some were in groups of two or three, and some were in groups of five or six.
There was even a swordsman with a pair of sword Qi wings on his back. He was obviously a Qi Hai swordsman. However, there were many True Realm swordsmen protecting him. It was obvious that he was not from an ordinary background.
From afar, Chu Mu could see that there was a ring of darkness in the Fiery Wind Desert. It was as if an ancient beast had its mouth wide open, waiting to devour all living things.
When Chu Mu arrived, there were already hundreds of True Realm swordsmen present. They were either alone or in groups. Every one of them had an astonished look on their faces. Looking at the ancient and huge entrance, they could not help but feel small.
Chu Mu also raised his head to look at the entrance. It was pitch black like a black hole, emitting an indescribable aura that made one tremble in fear. It was extremely mysterious. The entire entrance was a hundred meters tall, like a small black hill standing in the Fiery Wind Desert.
This pitch black entrance was the only entrance to the Ancient Sword Tomb. If one wanted to enter the Ancient Sword Tomb, they would have to walk through this terrifying entrance.
Although there was no danger in walking through this entrance, the aura made one tremble in fear. Those who were not brave enough would not even dare to walk in.
"The Ancient Sword Tomb has a total of three levels. Each level is more dangerous than the last, but at the same time, the rewards from each level are greater than the last. The first level is suitable for the Qi Hai realm, the second for the Ninth Transformation realm, and the third for the True Realm …" Information about the Ancient Sword Tomb appeared in Chu Mu's mind.
Although the second level of the Ancient Sword Tomb was suitable for the Ninth Transformation realm, very few Ninth Transformation realm swordsmen would travel outside. Therefore, there were almost no Ninth Transformation realm swordsmen who came here.
"In fact, the first level of the Ancient Sword Tomb is suitable for Sword Grand Masters, the second level for normal True Realm swordsmen, and the third level for powerful True Realm swordsmen," the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon's voice suddenly rang out, directly entering Chu Mu's ears.
As an ancient Sword Of Gojoseon, the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon's knowledge far surpassed Chu Mu's. He had been to the Ancient Sword Tomb before, so he would definitely know more about it than Chu Mu.
"Why?" Chu Mu's understanding of the Ancient Sword Tomb was still insufficient.
"You will understand once you enter." The Shura Sword Of Gojoseon replied, "With your strength, the first and second levels will not be a problem. However, you will have to be careful on the third level."
Hearing this, Chu Mu's interest in the Ancient Sword Tomb grew even more.
"Chu Mu, it really is you." A voice suddenly rang out from the side. Chu Mu turned around and saw Situ Feng walking over with his Perfect True Realm Sword Guards. Situ Feng had a strange smile on his face, as if he knew everything and was threatening Chu Mu.
"Chu Mu? I feel that this name is very familiar. "
"Who is Chu Mu?"
Someone nearby was startled when he heard the name, then asked in doubt.
"I also feel that this name is very familiar …"
Many gazes fell on Chu Mu, as if they wanted to see through Chu Mu.
Although Chu Mu's reputation had spread far and wide before, after more than a year, there had been many incidents, big and small, that had gradually faded from people's sight. However, Chu Mu's deeds were still remembered by many.
Hearing this, Chu Mu only laughed and ignored Situ Feng.
Situ Feng approached Chu Mu and stared into Chu Mu's eyes. He smiled and asked, "Oh right, my other Sword Guard has also come to the Wind and Fire Desert. I wonder if Brother Chu has seen him?"
"Nope." Chu Mu lightly replied.
"I see. If Brother Chu has seen him, please let me know." Situ Feng nodded and gave Chu Mu a deep look before turning around and leaving.
His Perfect True Realm Sword Guard stared at Chu Mu with a trace of killing intent in his eyes.
"Brother Chu, there are some things that are best kept between you and me. Otherwise, we'll have to shed all pretense of cordiality. Once everyone knows, that would be a huge problem." Situ Feng's voice suddenly entered Chu Mu's ears.
Chu Mu was sure that Situ Feng and his Sword Guard were suspecting him, but he wasn't sure. After all, they felt that he had just broken through to the True Realm. No matter how strong he was, it was impossible for him to kill him.
As for what Situ Feng had said, Chu Mu could also understand the meaning behind it. It was just like the Sword Guard who had died under the Moon Slaying Sword. They wanted to threaten Chu Mu with the secret of how Chu Mu had appeared outside when he was only at the Ninth Transformation Realm and used a short year to break through to the True Realm.
Although Situ Feng had not mentioned any conditions, Chu Mu knew that he would not let go of this opportunity.
However, the question was, would Chu Mu give him this opportunity?
"Let's go into the Ancient Sword Tomb." Someone said.
Immediately, someone took the lead and turned into a ray of light, rushing into the dark entrance and disappearing as if he had been swallowed.
"I remember now. Chu Mu is the Sword Hero who is ranked first on the Heavenly Sword Hero List." Suddenly, a swordsman shouted.
"It's him!"
"Impossible. It hasn't even been a year and a half. How could he have broken through to the True Realm so quickly?"
Amidst the discussions, Chu Mu had already entered the Ancient Sword Tomb and arrived at the first floor.
Although the Ancient Sword Tomb was called a tomb, it was extremely large. At a glance, one could not see the end of it.
Countless grey gases floated around like fog, emitting the smell of decay and death, making one feel a little depressed.
Countless broken swords mixed with grey skeletons were scattered around, forming the ground of the first floor of the Ancient Sword Tomb. There were also countless tombstones standing there, all of them crooked, like a mass grave.
This place was like a graveyard for the dead. The entrance of Chu Mu and the rest had disturbed the sleeping dead. All around them, soft whimpering sounds could be heard. It was faintly discernible, intermittent, like the whispers of ghosts.
This sound made one's hair stand on end, as if countless evil spirits were awakening.
Strange laughter could be heard, and all sorts of laughter and screams could be heard from the tombstones, making one's scalp go numb.
The light in the surroundings seemed to have dimmed.
Kacha kacha kacha, the sounds of bones rubbing against each other could be heard. Vaguely, the grey skeletons on the ground seemed to be moving.
"Let's go." Someone shouted and immediately flew forward. They were all True Realm swordsmen.
Although there were many treasures on the first floor of the Ancient Sword Tomb, they were not attractive to True Realm swordsmen. At least on the second floor, they would be tempted.
