"What a great harvest!" Chu Mu almost laughed out loud.
Whether it was Situ Feng's or Sikong Jian's spatial bracelet, they both had a large number of treasures. Most of them were brought in by themselves, while the rest were obtained from opening the fourth level of the Ancient Sword Tomb. Excluding Chu Mu's harvest, the two of them had obtained more than ten treasures from the fourth level of the Ancient Sword Tomb. Each of them was extremely valuable, but unfortunately, they were all useless to Chu Mu.
No matter what, Chu Mu's harvest from the fourth level of the Ancient Sword Tomb was extremely huge. It allowed him to leave most of the Origin Realm swordsmen in the dust. Even the powerful Sword Venerable level swordsmen might not be able to compare to Chu Mu's wealth.
Just a middle-grade spatial ring was enough to allow Chu Mu's wealth to surpass many Sword Venerables.
Soon, the opening of the Ancient Sword Tomb ended. Even though Chu Mu did not obtain anything else, what he obtained was already enough.
Chu Mu's body was enveloped by a force that he could not resist. Even the Asura Sword Of Gojoseon could not do anything to it. All he could feel was a blur in front of his eyes as the world spun and time reversed. Both of his feet could not touch the ground. When he landed, all he could see was an endless expanse of yellow sand that covered the sky.
It turned out that he had already left the Ancient Sword Tomb and appeared in the Fiery Wind Desert.
Looking around, other than the endless yellow sand, there was no one else to be seen. After the Ancient Sword Tomb closed, the swordsmen who were still alive would be sent out of the Ancient Sword Tomb. However, when they were sent out of the Ancient Sword Tomb, they would not be sent to a fixed location. In short, as long as they were in the Fiery Wind Desert, they could be anywhere.
If they were lucky, they would appear in the outer region of the Fiery Wind Desert and be able to leave quickly. If they were unlucky, they would appear in the center of the Fiery Wind Desert. It would be extremely difficult to leave.
Chu Mu didn't know where he was in the Wind Fire Great Desert. Sweeping his eyes over the place, he could only see boundless yellow sand rolling endlessly.
The air was filled with an incomparably hot aura. It was as if there was an incomparably huge furnace hidden behind the yellow sand. The raging flames were constantly roasting.
Suddenly, Chu Mu felt a trace of danger. He quickly used his footwork to move to the side, leaving behind an afterimage. In an instant, a terrifying torrent rushed out from under the yellow sand. With a bang, it directly shattered the afterimage and rushed up to a hundred meters in the air, causing the surrounding temperature to increase by dozens of degrees.
Shockingly, it was an Earth Fire.
"What a dangerous place." Chu Mu thought to himself. The power of the Earth Fire was too tyrannical. With his current strength, if he came into contact with it, even if he didn't die, he would be severely injured.
With a thought, his body soared into the air, reaching a height of several hundred meters. He looked into the distance, intending to take a look, but all he saw was endless yellow sand. He couldn't see anything else at all.
"Looks like I can only rely on luck." Chu Mu had no choice. He randomly chose a direction and quickly flew.
The Wind and Fire Desert was indeed huge. However, if an Origin Realm swordsman wanted to, they could still cross it if they spent some time.
Of course, the closer one was to the center, the more dangerous the Wind and Fire Desert would be. Even an Origin Realm swordsman would have a high chance of dying. Therefore, unless there was a special need, an Origin Realm swordsman wouldn't cross the Wind and Fire Desert.
With a boom, Chu Mu stirred up a powerful storm and shot forward like a rocket. His body was like a stream of light, unbelievably fast.
Without the suppression of the strange pressure from the Ancient Sword Tomb, Chu Mu's speed was even faster than before. Because his sword origin had truly reached the beginning of the Origin Realm, his flying speed had increased as well.
Under the clear sky, a figure flew past at high speed, leaving behind a trail of dazzling smoke and fire. It was like thousands of fireworks had bloomed, quickly disappearing into the distance.
After flying for about half a day, Chu Mu still couldn't see the end. With a glance, the desert was still covered in yellow sand, and it was extremely hot.
Suddenly, he saw three small black dots on the ground. He was startled at first, but his intuition told him that he should go down and take a look. Perhaps he could find something. He quickly descended and saw three swordsmen fighting against a sand beast together.
The three swordsmen didn't look very old, around twenty-three or twenty-four years old. There were two males and one female. The female was at the peak of the Qi Hai realm, while the two males were at the peak of the Qi Hai realm, Dacheng. The sand beast they were fighting was at the peak of the Qi Hai realm.
In theory, the sand beast was weaker than them, but this was the Wind Fire Desert. The sand beast had the home field advantage, and with its immortal body, the battle was extremely intense. The sand beast couldn't kill the three of them, but the three of them couldn't really kill the sand beast either.
The battle was extremely intense. Half of the sand beast's body was cut in half by the female swordsman's sword. Countless yellow sand exploded like bullets in all directions, forcing the three swordsmen to quickly dodge. The other half of the sand beast's body suddenly clawed at one of the male swordsmen. The male swordsman was in a hurry to deal with the sudden explosion of yellow sand, and had no time to dodge the claw. It seemed that the male swordsman was about to die under the sharp claw of the sand beast.
The other two swordsmen also showed a look of despair.
Chu Mu made his move. With a point of his finger, the air rippled and the sand beast's claw exploded. Immediately after, a sword pressure descended and directly suppressed the sand beast. The sand beast's body disintegrated, leaving only a sand core floating in the air, unable to reform the sand.
A sand beast in the Qi Hai realm was not Chu Mu's opponent at all.
Luckily escaping with his life, the male swordsman was first astonished before becoming happy. The female swordsman quickly lifted her head to look at the sky and landed on Chu Mu. Once she saw that there was no sword aura on Chu Mu's back, but his wings were still floating in the air. Her expression changed and she quickly gave a deep bow. Simultaneously, she used a respectful tone to say: "Many thanks to senior for saving us. Otherwise, the three of us very likely would have died here."
"No need to be so polite." Chu Mu's figure landed, and he stood upright like a sword on the yellow sand. Sweeping his eyes over them, he found that the female swordsman's looks weren't bad, and the two male swordsmen were rather handsome. They didn't seem to be evil people, "Which direction can we leave the Wind Fire Desert?"
Although she was surprised by Chu Mu's question, the female swordsman quickly answered: "Senior, if you keep going in this direction, you can leave the Wind Fire Desert and enter the Jin Sha County."
"Jin Sha County …" Chu Mu nodded. He didn't expect it to be the Tianfeng County. However, Chu Mu didn't care. Although it was his first time hearing about the Jin Sha County and he had never been there before, as long as he was there, Chu Mu would have a way to get to the Sky Connecting Mountain.
"Senior, we are from the Li family of the Jin Sha County. If you have any orders in the Jin Sha County, we are willing to do anything for you. We will do anything for you." The female swordsman quickly said. She knew that Chu Mu was at least an Origin Realm swordsman. Although he looked very young, his age shouldn't be too different from theirs.
However, in this world, there was never a lack of geniuses. Even if there weren't many of them, there would always be some swordsmen who could reach the Origin Realm before the age of thirty. Their talents were far superior to ordinary people.
Moreover, if they were able to reach the Origin Realm at a young age, they would be able to maintain their appearance for a longer period of time. In other words, the speed of aging would be greatly reduced, by at least ten times.
This was also why some Origin Realm swordsmen who looked like they were in their forties were actually more than a hundred years old or even two or three hundred years old.
No matter what kind of situation Chu Mu was in, in their eyes, Chu Mu was a powerful existence that they couldn't reach. He was an existence that they had to look up to.
Just this female swordsman's sword Qi had reached the peak of the Qi Hai Realm. However, she was very clear that she only barely had the strength of a Sword Master. In terms of accumulation, she was far from enough. Even if she had accumulated enough, it would be extremely difficult for her to reach the Origin Realm. She might not even be able to reach the Origin Realm after a few decades.
In her entire family, there wasn't a single Origin Realm swordsman. Therefore, to them and their family, the Origin Realm was a superior existence.
If she could gain the favor of an Origin Realm swordsman, it would be a good thing for her family.
"The Li Family?" Chu Mu had a flash of inspiration, "Has the Li Family always been in the Jinsha Region?"
"Senior, as far as I know, the Li Family was not originally in the Jinsha Region. We only moved here about twenty years ago." Although the female swordsman didn't understand why Chu Mu would ask such a question, she still answered respectfully.
Chu Mu's eyes lit up and asked again, "Do you know where the Li Family was originally located?"
"Senior, I only know that the Li Family moved to the Jinsha Region about twenty years ago. As for where we moved from, only the elders in the family know." The female swordsman answered carefully and quickly added, "If senior wants to know more about the history of the Li Family, you are welcome to be our guest. The Li Family would be honored."
"Do you want to go back now?" Chu Mu thought for a moment and asked.
He had been entrusted by the Great Kun Sword Mansion's Mansion Master, Li Daoyuan, to find the Li Family and provide them with some help depending on the situation. However, he had never met them. Now, he had met these three swordsmen. Maybe they weren't, but maybe they were.
Since it wouldn't take much time, Chu Mu decided to go to the Li Family in the Jinsha Region to see if they were the real deal.
"Senior is willing to go to our Li Family …" The female swordsman and the two male swordsmen were immediately overjoyed.
"If you don't have anything else, you can go now." Chu Mu smiled.
"Okay, okay. What could be more important than senior visiting our Li Family?" The female swordsman quickly said. She couldn't hide the smile on her face. She quickly turned around and spread out her sword Qi wings, soaring into the sky.
The other two male swordsmen also quickly spread out their sword Qi wings. Although it would consume a lot of sword Qi and would require elixirs to replenish, it was a great honor to be able to invite a Primary Realm swordsman to their home. It was worth it, very worth it.
Chu Mu also soared into the sky and followed behind the three swordsmen. They flew in the direction of the Jinsha Region. In his heart, he hoped that this was the Li Family that the Great Kun Sword Mansion's Mansion Master had mentioned. Otherwise, he wouldn't know where to look. (To be continued.
