"Everyone, is there anyone who wants to form a team with me and move together?"
Once they entered the fourth floor, Sikong Jian immediately said and began to recruit people.
"Me."
"Me too."
Sikong Jian was very strong and looked very knowledgeable. It was easy for people to trust him. Immediately, several swordsmen expressed their desire to form a team with him.
"Hmph." The black-robed swordsman snorted. His figure flashed and he left.
The purple-robed swordsman did not say a word. He turned into a flash of lightning and left in another direction.
Among the remaining swordsmen, they formed teams of twos and threes.
"No need to form a team." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon transmitted. Chu Mu declined the others' invitation and moved alone.
…
Many years ago, the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon had personally come here. At that time, there were also people who came here. Now, it was only the descendants of those people who came here again. Chu Mu brought the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon's godly soul here. It was completely different.
In terms of familiarity with the fourth floor of the Ancient Sword Tomb, the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon was the most familiar. With the godly soul of the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon by his side, Chu Mu's advantage was more obvious than the others.
Forward, forward, forward without stopping.
The fourth floor was like an independent world. It had a gray sky and gray clouds that were condensed like lead blocks. It was as if they were going to fall and crush the ground, making people feel even more oppressed.
The ground was also gray. It wasn't like the first level where there were skeletons everywhere, nor were there tombstones everywhere. However, there was a strange aura emitting from it, as if there were illusions everywhere. It was easy to get lost in it.
Chu Mu was like a lone traveler walking on this strange ground. The gray fog was very thick and the visibility was very low.
At this time, Chu Mu was moving in the direction that the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said. Unlike the other swordsmen who entered here, Chu Mu had a clear goal.
Without a clear goal, one could only rely on luck. With a clear goal, the final harvest would definitely be better.
After a period of time, Chu Mu saw a tombstone. Behind the tombstone was a tomb, standing alone in the vast land.
"This should be an Intermediate Tomb. You can give it a try and see if you can obtain the fortune within," the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said.
According to the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon, there were some tombs in the fourth level of the Ancient Sword Tomb. They were different from the tombstones in the first three levels. Each tomb represented an opportunity.
The tombs here were also divided into low-level, mid-level, and high-level tombs. Above high-level tombs were King-level tombs, but King-level tombs were extremely rare. There weren't even many high-level tombs.
Moreover, it was difficult to tell the level of the tomb just from its appearance. The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon could tell because he knew this place better than others and also because of his powerful divine sense.
"Middle-level tomb …" Chu Mu's figure flashed and appeared in front of the tombstone that seemed to be both black and gray. According to the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon's instructions, he pressed his palm on the tombstone and inserted Sky Desolation Sword Energy.
In his other hand, Chu Mu held a mid-level Sky Desolation Stone and absorbed the pure Desolation Qi within it to recover his depleted Sword Energy.
After a while, Chu Mu raised his palm and saw the tombstone emit bursts of light. The tomb behind the tombstone automatically separated and something flew out and floated in the air.
"Not bad, there really is something." Although the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon didn't appear, he could clearly feel everything that was happening outside.
Chu Mu extended his hand and grabbed the ball of light that was burning like a flame. When it landed in his hand, it turned into a piece of fiery red jade. From time to time, flames would jump out from it.
"There is some information recorded in this jade. It could be a cultivation technique or comprehension. You can use your mental power to check it out." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said.
Chu Mu's mind moved, and his mental strength was released. It wrapped around the fiery red jade in his hand and entered it. Instantly, Chu Mu felt the information inside the jade.
"So it's a secret technique …" After ten breaths, Chu Mu finished reading the information in the jade and said to himself, "And it's the Burning Heaven Triplet secret technique."
"It's a pity that this secret technique can only amplify the fire element. It's useless to me."
"In the battle for providence, the secret technique that Lie Kong Yang used seemed to be the first two moves of the Burning Heaven Triplet. Could it be that he's missing the third move?"
Although it was useless to him, there was no doubt that the Burning Heaven Triplet was a powerful secret technique. Even if it was used by an Origin Realm swordsman, it would still be able to amplify his strength. It was very valuable.
"Let's continue forward and find the tomb." With this reward, Chu Mu felt very motivated.
Chu Mu didn't know how much time had passed before he came across another tomb. According to the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon, it was a high level tomb. Unfortunately, it was surrounded by four swordsmen. One of them was at the Initial Stage of the Origin Realm, while the other three were at the Initial Stage of the Origin Realm.
This was someone else's opportunity. Under normal circumstances, Chu Mu wouldn't have the intention to snatch it. However, the other party didn't see it that way. When they saw Chu Mu appear, they all stared at Chu Mu with extreme vigilance. They looked like they were ready to attack if Chu Mu made the slightest move.
Chu Mu didn't say anything and just walked forward. The four swordsmen all let out a sigh of relief.
Those who could enter this place were all geniuses. Every one of them had powerful strength. Even if Chu Mu's cultivation wasn't as strong as an Initial Stage swordsman, no one dared to underestimate him.
Once a fight broke out, they might have the confidence to kill him. However, it might cause some unexpected changes. Therefore, it was best not to make a move.
Although he missed a high level tomb, Chu Mu didn't regret it at all.
With the guidance of the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon, he believed that he could also find a high level tomb.
As time passed by, Chu Mu found another tomb. It was a low level tomb, but nothing appeared after he opened it.
Even if it was a high level tomb, there might not be anything inside.
"The Ancient Sword Tomb will only be open for half a year. Once half a year is up, it will go back into the Fiery Wind Desert and hide itself. No one will be able to find it. The fourth level also belongs to the Ancient Sword Tomb, so it will also be open for half a year. It hasn't even been a month since I entered the Ancient Sword Tomb. I still have time to look for my opportunity."
…
"This is a middle level tomb. There is a sixty percent chance that there will be something inside." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said.
Low level tombs only had a thirty percent chance of containing something. Middle level tombs had a sixty percent chance, and high level tombs had an eighty percent chance.
Sixty percent was a pretty good chance. If there was nothing inside, it wouldn't be strange at all.
"I wonder what I can get this time?" Chu Mu thought to himself. With a flash, he appeared in front of the tombstone.
While he was moving forward, he was holding a middle level Desolate Stone. He was constantly absorbing the pure Desolate Qi within to refine the Desolate Sword Energy. Although it hadn't reached the Entry Level of the Origin Realm, it was already a lot better than when he had just broken through.
"Wait!" A loud shout was heard. Seven to eight figures flew over at an extremely fast speed. The one leading them was Sikong Jian.
Other than Sikong Jian, there were seven other swordsmen. Two of them were at the Initial Level of the Origin Realm, while the other five were at the Entry Level of the Origin Realm.
According to Chu Mu's knowledge, there were a total of thirty-two swordsmen who had entered this place. Sikong Jian's group alone had eight of them, which was a quarter of the total. With such strength, Chu Mu knew very well that he was no match for them.
The eight of them flew over and surrounded the tomb.
"You are Chu Mu, right? I heard that you have great talent. You only used a year and a half to reach the Ninth Transformation Realm. Your future achievements will not be low, provided that you don't die prematurely." Sikong Jian said to Chu Mu with a smile. His tone was very gentle, "I hope that we can become friends. Because when it comes to dealing with enemies, I usually eliminate them completely."
Chu Mu slightly frowned, but didn't say anything.
"We have only seen a few tombs ever since we entered this place. This is the first one we have seen. Let's be friends and let us have this tomb. How about that?" Sikong Jian said with a smile. His eyes stared straight at Chu Mu. There was a trace of sharpness in his eyes, which gave Chu Mu a lot of pressure.
"These days, the so-called treasures belong to the virtuous. If you are strong enough, you are virtuous." One of the swordsmen at the Initial Level of the Origin Realm said in a low voice.
Even though he was unwilling, Chu Mu could only back off.
Right now, he was still no match for Sikong Jian. Not to mention, there were still seven other swordsmen. Even if he let the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon attack, it would still be difficult to kill all of them.
Because on the fourth floor of the ancient sword tomb, the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon's suppression was even more obvious. His reaction was slower, and every time he attacked, it would consume more of his soul energy.
If he used the Meteor Sword Energy, he might be able to do it. However, Chu Mu felt that it was not worth it to use the Meteor Sword Energy for a middle-grade tomb that only had a sixty percent chance of containing something.
Without saying a word, Chu Mu only glanced at the eight swordsmen, as if he wanted to remember their faces. Then, he quickly backed off.
Sikong Jian and the others looked at Chu Mu, who was quickly backing off, and let out a light laugh. They did not think much of it.
They were all geniuses, and geniuses were all arrogant. They would not easily admit that they were inferior to others. Even if Chu Mu's future was limitless, what about them? Could it be limited?
One had to know that each of them had outstanding talent, and they had the support of a powerful force behind them. They could obtain all kinds of resources to aid their cultivation. Their future achievements would definitely not be low.
As for Sikong Jian, he did not put Chu Mu in his eyes at all. When Chu Mu grew up, he believed that he would have gone even further.
…
"Do you feel unreconciled?" The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon asked.
"There is nothing to be unreconciled about. Everything is because I am not strong enough." Chu Mu replied calmly. His heart was calm.
Anger? Unreconciled?
None of that mattered. This only made him realize the importance of strength.
If he had the cultivation of Dacheng in the Origin Realm, he would definitely not be afraid of the eight swordsmen. He would definitely have the ability to compete with them.
"It is good that you have such understanding. Everything is based on strength. The so-called virtuous person in front of a powerful swordsman is only a layer of strength." The Asura Sword Of Gojoseon said, "You are still very young. Your talent is above theirs. It is only a matter of time before you surpass them."
