(The weather is really hot. My notebook is burning hot.)
Chu Mu's calm voice echoed with the corpse at his feet, causing everyone's hearts to tremble. A kind of horror was born from the bottom of their hearts.
Could it be that the blurry dream-like Sword Light they had seen just now was made by Chu Mu?
Inconceivable, too inconceivable. What kind of profound swordsmanship was needed to do that?
"Everyone, we must join forces and kill him first." The Long family head suddenly shouted, "Otherwise, there will be no end of trouble."
The four swordsmen of the Fan family were quick-witted and immediately understood the Long family head's meaning. If Chu Mu did not die, the Shentu family might join forces with Chu Mu. When that happened, they would be in danger.
"Stop them." Shentu Kuangsha's reaction was extremely fast. With a roar, he drew his sword. The Sword Light was like a gale, sweeping up yellow sand that filled the sky.
Shentu Wudi and the Shentu family elders also drew their swords. They did not aim to kill the enemy, but only to stop five of them. The sixth person was left to Chu Mu to deal with. He could kill him in an instant, just like how he had killed Long Ling.
Long Ling's death by Chu Mu's sword gave the Shentu family great hope.
However, the Shentu family was still a step too slow. The swords of the Long family head, Long family great elder, and the four swordsmen of the Fan family were all aimed at Chu Mu. They were even closer, and with their full strength, they appeared in front of Chu Mu in the blink of an eye.
The Sword Light was either like an endless stream of water, or like a raging inferno. It was also as fast and sharp as a gale, or as violent and powerful as thunder.
The six swordsmen were at least in their fifties. They had been immersed in swordsmanship for decades, and their attainments were not low. At this moment, they attacked with their full strength in an attempt to kill Chu Mu in one strike.
The six Sword Light, six different styles, and the same intense killing intent, bloomed in this side hall. Their target was none other than Chu Mu.
In an instant, Chu Mu felt six completely different auras lock onto him. Some were continuous, some were blazing, some were violent, and some were sharp. Every single one of them contained shocking killing intent.
Chu Mu's cold expression did not change. He drew his sword with lightning speed, and a cold Sword Light swept out. Then, he sheathed his sword.
The Patriarch of the Long Clan, the Great Elder of the Long Clan, and the four members of the Fan Clan all paused, maintaining their sword stances. They surrounded Chu Mu, but their swords did not fall. Their faces were filled with disbelief, and their eyes were filled with horror and shock.
Subconsciously, they reached out to wipe their throats, only to feel a little moist. When they looked at it again, a glaring scarlet color made them feel dizzy.
It was blood, their own blood.
With great difficulty, they looked at Chu Mu. The six of them only felt that Chu Mu's figure had become blurry, as if he was flying away. Then, his figure swayed and fell to the side.
Shentu Kuangsha and the other four's Sword Light had just arrived. Having lost their target, the Sword Light missed. The five of them hurriedly withdrew their swords and stood there in a daze. The scene before their eyes made their brains stop working.
One sword!
With just one sword, Chu Mu had killed six Origin Realm experts from the Long Clan and the Fan Clan. Was this a dream?
Shentu Wudi subconsciously pinched his cheeks. The pain woke him up. Only then did he realize that it was not an illusion. It was real. Chu Mu had really killed six experts with one sword.
Taking a deep breath, Shentu Wudi shook his head with all his might, trying to dispel this unreal feeling.
"Truly … terrifying swordsmanship …" Shentu Kuangsha also woke up and sighed heavily. There was a hint of fear in his tone.
"Fortunately, Elder Chu is our Shentu Clan's Guest Elder. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sit still." The Shentu Clan's Grand Elder smiled bitterly.
"That's right." The other Elders echoed one after another. They looked at Chu Mu with deep reverence.
They had seen the life and death battle between Chu Mu and Long Yi. They believed that in terms of overall strength, other than the Clan Head and Grand Elder, they wouldn't surpass Chu Mu by much. However, in terms of swordsmanship, Chu Mu had left them in the dust by a few counties.
To be able to kill Long Ling and six experts from the Long Clan and the Fan Clan in one sword strike, and that was under the circumstances where they had used their full strength. In other words, Chu Mu also had the strength to kill them.
The strong were always revered.
Obviously, in terms of swordsmanship, Chu Mu was fully deserving of the title of a strong expert.
"Elder Chu, if you hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid the five of us wouldn't have been able to survive." Shentu Kuangsha said seriously.
"Since I'm the Shentu Clan's Guest Elder, it's only right that I do what I can." Chu Mu said.
"Even so, Elder Chu has indeed saved our lives," Shentu Kuangsha insisted. He had his own principles. "It's hard to repay the kindness of saving our lives. These seven people were killed by Elder Chu, so their belongings are Elder Chu's spoils of war. As for the spirit stones and elixirs here, they will be distributed according to Elder Chu's wishes."
In this way, the initiative was in Chu Mu's hands. At this time, even if Chu Mu proposed that all the spirit stones and elixirs belong to him, the Shentu Clan would not raise any objections. Of course, it was inevitable that they would have objections in their hearts.
"We'll split them equally." Chu Mu said directly.
Shentu Kuangsha and the others smiled.
According to their thinking, even if Chu Mu proposed to take all the treasures, they would not refuse, because the words had already been spoken. However, they would definitely have some objections in their hearts.
A trace of objection buried in their hearts would accumulate as time passed, and eventually become a point of conflict.
Chu Mu's proposal to split the treasures equally won a great deal of goodwill from the Shentu Clan.
"If it wasn't for Elder Chu, not only would we not have obtained any treasures, we might even have died here. Therefore, let's split these spirit stones and elixirs equally." Shentu Kuangsha said with a smile.
"Sure." Chu Mu could not be bothered to decline such a matter. He had already expressed his sincerity.
Before the distribution, he had to sort it out first.
Chu Mu removed the top grade spatial bracelets from the seven corpses of the Long and Fan Clan. He did not examine them for the time being, and kept them all in his spatial ring. The Shentu Clan people checked the two small hill-like piles of spirit stones, elixirs and swords.
After a while, the statistics were out.
"Elder Chu, there are a total of 3.22 million high grade spirit stones, and 1.8 million top grade spirit stones." An elder of the Shentu Clan with an extremely strong calculation ability said, "As for elixirs, there are a total of thirteen types, each with different effects. There are twelve bottles at most, and two bottles at least. In addition, there are thirty-three Royal Grade swords."
"Give me half of the spirit stones and half of the elixirs." Chu Mu said. His gaze slowly swept across the thirty-three Royal Grade swords, and he tapped them lightly, "Those three swords are mine. The rest are yours."
The value of the Royal Grade swords was not low. There were thirty-three of them, and Chu Mu could have obtained sixteen or seventeen. However, it was useless to him no matter how many swords he took. Therefore, he only chose the best three of the thirty-three swords.
The Shentu Clan did not say anything else. As a large clan, they indeed needed the Royal Grade swords, especially the swords left behind by a Sword Saint. Perhaps in the eyes of a Sword Saint, they were nothing, but to them, these were the best of the best Royal Grade swords, and their value was extraordinary.
Not long after, the spirit stones, elixirs and swords were divided. Chu Mu had a spatial ring, and the space inside was extremely large. He could store as much as he wanted, and it was like a bottomless pit. This made the five Shentu Clan people very surprised.
However, Chu Mu's talent was outstanding, and his swordsmanship was unfathomable and terrifying. It was normal for him to have some secrets. Therefore, although the Shentu Clan people were curious, they did not intend to probe further.
In the end, Chu Mu obtained 1.61 million high-grade spirit stones, 900,000 supreme-grade spirit stones, and thirteen types of elixirs. Because the number of each type of elixir was different, Chu Mu was given six bottles at most, and one bottle at least. There were also three of the best Royal Grade swords.
900,000 supreme-grade spirit stones were equivalent to nine million high-grade spirit stones. This greatly increased Chu Mu's wealth. The thirteen types of elixirs were also extraordinary. There was the Great Recovery Elixir that could allow a Primary Realm swordsman to recover his Sword Yuan in a short period of time. There was also the Yang Recovery Elixir that could heal internal injuries. There was also the Recovery Elixir that specialized in external injuries. There was also the Life Recovery Elixir that could save a Primary Realm swordsman from the brink of death.
Other than that, there were other types of elixirs that did not need to be listed one by one.
As for the three best Royal Grade swords, they were not inferior to the eight-sided Sky Desolation Sword that Chu Mu had personally forged.
Due to the uniqueness of the Sky Desolation Sword Yuan, only the Sky Desolation Sword could completely withstand it. If other swords were infused with the Sky Desolation Sword Yuan, they would be damaged. The degree of damage was related to the quality of the sword, the time and intensity of the Sky Desolation Sword Yuan.
Chu Mu possessed the Dacheng's Dual Sword Arts, which allowed him to wield swords with both hands at the same time. This allowed his strength to increase exponentially. In the past, many swords were suitable for the Dual Sword Arts, but now that he had the Sky Desolation Sword Yuan, only the Sky Desolation Sword was the most suitable.
The reason why Chu Mu chose these three best Royal Grade swords was so that he could occasionally use the Dual Sword Arts. Normally, he would not use the Dual Sword Arts, only when he was facing a strong enemy.
The three best Royal Grade swords were enough for him to use as a substitute.
"This trip to the Sky Dragon Sword Hall seems to be filled with danger. If we are not careful, we might be killed." Shentu Kuangsha sighed. "Elder Chu, Sword Yuan, Sword Intent, and Esoteric Power cannot be used here. Your sword arts can be said to be unparalleled, but there are others whose sword arts are stronger than those of the Long and Fan family. Why don't we move together and look after each other? As for the Sword Saint's inheritance, it would be best if we have the opportunity to obtain it. If not, our Shentu family does not dare to force it. "
After this incident, Shentu Kuangsha had a deeper understanding of this trip and understood the difficulty of obtaining the inheritance. Therefore, he changed his mind. As long as they could obtain more spirit stones, pills, and other such treasures, it would be fine. These were all necessary items for the family to develop and strengthen. The more, the better.
"Alright." Chu Mu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "However, I may leave alone at any time."
"Alright." Shentu Kuangsha did not hesitate. Chu Mu was originally only a guest elder of the Shentu family, so he had a lot of freedom. (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.)
