"Another Royal Grade sword …" Chu Mu shook his head helplessly as he stored the jet-black longsword that looked like it was made of some kind of bone into his spatial bracelet.
Although the value of a King Grade Sword wasn't low, the current him had the ability to create a King Grade Sword himself. He could even create a top tier King Grade Sword. Therefore, no matter how many King Grade Swords there were, Chu Mu wouldn't be moved.
This was the third level of the Ancient Sword Tomb. The grey aura floating in the air was even denser. The smell of death was also ten times stronger than the first level. Here, Chu Mu realized that his mental power was obviously suppressed. He could only release it to a range of ten meters.
Even with his powerful mental power, he was suppressed to this extent, let alone the other Primary Realm swordsmen. They could only release their mental power to a range of five to six meters. Most of the Primary Realm swordsmen could not release their mental power at all. If there was any danger, they would not be able to sense it in advance like before.
The first level of the Ancient Sword Tomb was extremely large. Chu Mu and the other Primary Realm swordsmen had to fly for more than six hours before reaching the end. They killed the Skeleton General and a group of powerful Skeleton Swordsmen guarding the entrance to the second level and entered the second level.
The second level was more than twice the size of the first level. Moreover, the pressure on the second level was even greater. The flying speed of the Primary Realm swordsmen had decreased by more than half. Just like that, the Primary Realm swordsmen had to fly for more than thirty hours before reaching the end of the second level. They fought with the Skeleton Commanders and Skeleton Generals guarding the entrance to the third level and killed them all before entering the third level.
The third level was more than twice the size of the second level. Moreover, the pressure here was even greater. The Primary Realm swordsmen could no longer fly and could only walk.
Close to a thousand Primary Realm swordsmen entered the third level of the Ancient Sword Tomb and spread out. It was like a small boat entering the ocean. It was difficult to see anyone else.
It was difficult to sense the flow of time here. Therefore, Chu Mu did not know how long he had been here. He only vaguely felt that it was not short. Perhaps it had been more than a day.
The third level of the Ancient Sword Tomb was indeed a treasure trove. As long as one had the heart, they would be able to find Royal Grade swords or related ores and metals.
However, to the third level, these Royal Grade swords were the most ordinary items. Most of them were left behind by the swordsmen who had died in the Ancient Sword Tomb.
"Actually, the Ancient Sword Tomb has a fourth floor …" The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon's voice sounded in his ears, startling Chu Mu.
"The fourth floor?" Chu Mu repeated.
"That's right. This is a secret that very few people know about. Back then, I entered the fourth level purely by coincidence." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said, "Other than me, there were others who entered the fourth floor. Perhaps some of the swordsmen who entered this place this time also know of the existence of the fourth floor."
"What's the difference between the fourth floor and the third floor?" Chu Mu could not help but ask curiously.
"The fourth floor is not as big as the third floor. It can't even compare to the first floor. However, the pressure on the fourth floor is even greater. You will have to experience this yourself." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said. What he meant was that he was going to tell Chu Mu how to enter the fourth floor.
"With your current strength, you can barely enter the fourth floor. Now, go forward until I tell you to stop." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon instructed.
"Okay." Chu Mu nodded and strode forward. The fourth floor was extremely attractive to him.
In the Tianfeng Region, the various records of the Ancient Sword Tomb only mentioned three floors. Therefore, most swordsmen believed that the Ancient Sword Tomb only had three floors. If the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon did not point it out, Chu Mu would naturally think so too.
The fourth floor!
Although the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon did not explain clearly what was on the fourth floor, it was enough to attract Chu Mu's attention.
"The Heavenly Dipper Soul Condensation Technique is what I obtained from the fourth floor." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon suddenly said, causing Chu Mu's eyes to light up.
The Heavenly Dipper Soul Condensation Technique was a secret technique used by ancient swordsmen. To think that it was obtained from the fourth floor of the Ancient Sword Tomb, this was completely out of Chu Mu's expectations.
"Then, the Ancient Sword Tomb has existed since the ancient times?" Chu Mu asked.
"Yes, but as for how it appeared, I am not sure. Maybe only some ancient existences would know." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said, "Those who can enter the fourth floor, as long as they don't die, will be able to obtain a fortuitous encounter."
Chu Mu nodded and walked even faster. He was almost running.
On the Fiery Wind Desert, there were people coming from afar. When they arrived at the dark entrance of the Ancient Sword Tomb, they did not stop and directly entered.
Among these people, there were many Original Realm swordsmen, and some Qi Hai swordsmen.
The Original Realm swordsmen flew past the first floor at an extremely fast speed and entered the second floor. After that, some of the weaker Original Realm swordsmen stayed on the second floor to look for their fortuitous encounter. A few of the stronger Original Realm swordsmen entered the third floor.
However, the Ancient Sword Tomb was huge. Even if they could fly, it would take them at least two days to fly from one side to the other. Not to mention that they could only run in this situation where they could not fly.
…
"Brother Chu, why don't you join our team? We can take care of each other."
"Brother Chu, this place is filled with danger. If you are not careful, you could die. Why don't you join our team and seek fortuitous encounters together?"
On the way, Chu Mu met two teams. They knew of Chu Mu's identity and invited him. However, Chu Mu rejected them.
He was now heading towards the fourth floor.
"Brother Chu, we are really fated." Two figures walked towards him. One of them smiled and said to Chu Mu. It was Situ Feng and his Sword Guard.
Chu Mu stopped and did not say anything. His expression was calm.
"As long as Brother Chu is willing to work for me, I will treat you like my own brother Chu. Once I become the young master of the Situ Family, Brother Chu will be able to enjoy all the resources of the family and increase your strength even faster." Situ Feng said straightforwardly. Before, he was threatening, and now he was tempting. His goal was obvious. He wanted to use the so-called secret to threaten Chu Mu and make Chu Mu submit and work for him.
If Chu Mu submitted, then his sword heart would be damaged. In the future, he might be able to cultivate to Sword Saint or even become a Sword Of Gojoseon. However, he would be a weak Sword Of Gojoseon. As for creating his own sword dao, that would be even more impossible.
"Before that, I asked someone a question." Chu Mu let out a breath and said indifferently, "Between facing trouble that has yet to come and submitting to threats, which one would I choose? What do you guys think? "
"If you are smart, then you should choose to submit." Situ Feng's expression changed at first, then he sneered. The Sword Guard beside him glared at Chu Mu. An extremely sharp killing intent burst out, as if it wanted to pierce through Chu Mu.
"Senior, I will have to trouble you this time." Chu Mu transmitted his voice.
"With your current strength, it will indeed be difficult to deal with the two of them." The Shura Sword Of Gojoseon replied, "Once one of them escapes and the news spreads, it will also be troublesome for you."
As soon as the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon finished speaking, the crimson Sword Of Gojoseon in front of Chu Mu's chest flew up by itself, releasing a red light. Then, the crimson sword rapidly expanded, and the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon's spirit body appeared once again.
After more than a year of silent cultivation, the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon's spirit body had become more solid than before.
Situ Feng and the Complete Origin Realm swordsman widened their eyes. Their faces were filled with disbelief. The scene in front of them was beyond their imagination.
"Now, I will send you down to accompany him." Chu Mu said.
The Shura Sword Of Gojoseon held the Shura Sword in his hand and swung it out without the slightest trace of smoke or fire.
"Wait …" Situ Feng was almost scared out of his wits as he hurriedly yelled. The middle-aged Sword Guard directly pulled out his sword. With a roar, his body flashed and appeared in front of Situ Feng. All of his power surged out and converged into the sword. It was incomparably bright. This was the strongest sword he had ever used in his life.
However, they did not even have the strength of a Sword Saint. Under the ancient Shura Sword Of Gojoseon, they were extremely weak. Even if the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon was only left with its spirit body, it would still be able to kill a Sword Saint.
A red arc of light seemed to come from the horizon, instantly cutting off the Sword Guard's ultimate attack. In a thousandth of a second, it passed through the middle-aged Sword Guard's body, but was blocked by a ray of light released from Situ Feng's body.
With a cracking sound, the light on Situ Feng's body shattered like an eggshell, and the scarlet arc of light dissipated at the same time.
Situ Feng immediately reacted. His Sword Yuan surged, and a layer of blood light rolled out from his body, turning into a blood red flame that burned fiercely, emitting an incomparably terrifying aura. Then, with a boom, Situ Feng shot up into the sky, turning around to escape.
"Moon Beheading!"
Chu Mu roared as the Desolate Sky Sword was unsheathed. A ten meter long dark golden crescent moon broke through the sky and caught up to Situ Feng at an even faster speed.
With a boom, Situ Feng spat out a mouthful of blood. Countless blood red flames splashed out, but his speed suddenly increased. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Chu Mu and the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon's sight.
Chu Mu's face was not looking good. He did not expect Situ Feng to escape even with the help of the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon.
"He had a protective treasure on him that allowed him to block my sword. Then, he used a secret technique that burned his blood and Sword Yuan in exchange for astonishing speed." The Shura Sword Of Gojoseon calmly said, "The pressure here made my Divine Soul body feel uncomfortable, so my reaction was a bit slow. That's why I couldn't keep him here. However, you don't need to worry. After using this Blood Escape secret technique, the side effects are extremely great. After being hit by your sword, once the secret technique was stopped, even if he didn't die, he would still be heavily injured and unconscious. In a place like the Ancient Sword Tomb, it is impossible for him to survive."
Chu Mu's expression returned to normal, but his heart was filled with shock. The Ancient Sword Tomb was truly strange. It could even suppress the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon's Divine Soul body, causing his reaction to be a bit slower and allowing Situ Feng to escape.
However, just as the Shura Sword Of Gojoseon had said, after using the Blood Escape secret technique and then being hit by his Moon Beheading, even if Situ Feng did not die, he would not be far from death.
