(I hate people like Carvin the most.)
After succeeding, Chu Mu let out a sigh of relief. This kind of assassination was extremely dangerous. If he wasn't careful, his whereabouts would be exposed. If that happened, he would have to face two or three Complete Origin Realm swordsmen, all of whom had the strength of a Sword Sovereign.
Fortunately, the Art of Hidden Edge was indeed powerful. Chu Mu's aura was completely concealed. Even the First Elder, who had the strength of a Sword Sovereign, couldn't detect it.
In another place, Xiao Qianfeng had also successfully assassinated a Beginning Origin Realm swordsman.
"First one …" Xiao Qianfeng muttered in his heart.
The difficulty of his assassination was much lower than Chu Mu's.
"Next, I'll kill Venerable Blood Demon." Chu Mu muttered to himself. He stored the First Elder's extreme grade spatial bracelet into his interspatial ring and left quietly, heading towards the Sword Tower where Venerable Blood Demon was.
The patrolling disciples of the Heaven's Burial Sword Sect were like nothing.
Above the Heaven's Burial Sword Sect, a figure was floating. It was as if he had blended in with the night sky. Even a Complete Origin Realm swordsman wouldn't be able to see him.
"Not bad." The figure muttered to himself. His soul power was constantly monitoring the movements below, "However, I'm going to run into trouble."
… …
Just as Chu Mu approached Senior Blood Fiend's Sword Tower and broke through its seal, Chu Mu smelled waves of bloody stench coming from inside.
The smell of blood was sometimes strong and sometimes light. It was like a wave floating around. Venerable Blood Demon was probably cultivating.
During cultivation, most of his attention would be placed on cultivation. Only a small part of his attention would be focused on the outside world. This was the best time.
Chu Mu circulated the Art of Hidden Edge to its limit and sneaked into the Sword Tower. Soon, he arrived at the fourth floor. A tall figure was sitting cross-legged in the middle. Through the darkness, Chu Mu could see the blood-red robe the figure was wearing.
However, there was another figure standing a meter away from that figure. His figure was as straight as a sword, with traces of sharpness and killing intent surrounding him. The ripples he emitted were at the level of the Complete Origin Realm.
Chu Mu's heart skipped a beat.
"The person sitting there should be Venerable Blood Fury. Who is the person standing next to him?"
If it was just Reverend Blood Fury alone, Chu Mu would have been able to assassinate him. However, the problem was that there was another person beside him. Furthermore, the aura emitted from that person was at the Complete Origin Realm.
His heart sank slightly. Chu Mu was in no hurry to make a move. According to the information that Xiao Qianfeng had gathered, there was no mention of a Complete Origin Realm swordsman beside Venerable Blood Demon.
After observing carefully for 15 minutes, Chu Mu finally confirmed that the figure standing beside Venerable Blood Fury was not a real human.
This was because he did not have the aura that a human should have. In other words, he was a puppet refined by Venerable Blood Fury.
It was a puppet swordsman with the strength of an ordinary Sword Venerable.
"Since it's a puppet …"
"If I kill Venerable Blood Fury directly, will I be attacked by the puppets?"
Generally speaking, puppets were restricted and commanded by their masters. They did not possess any intelligence, but it was hard to say. There were always exceptions.
Just as Chu Mu was observing carefully, Xiao Qianfeng had already assassinated the third Initial Origin Realm swordsman. There were only five left.
Unknowingly, the overall strength of the Buried Heaven Sword Sect was rapidly declining.
"I'll give up for now," Chu Mu made a decision and quietly exited the Sword Tower. He sneaked towards the Sword Tower where Venerable Zang Tian was.
Venerable Zang Tian's Sword Tower was located at the center of the entire Buried Heaven Sword Sect. It was located at the back of the main hall and was five floors high.
He quietly broke the seal and sneaked into the fifth floor of the Sword Tower. Venerable Zang Tian was also cultivating there.
It had to be said that every swordsman who wanted to become stronger was inseparable from their perseverance in cultivation. The progress might be small, but many little drops made a mickle.
There was only Venerable Zang Tian on the fifth floor. If there was another puppet, Chu Mu would be in tears.
His aura was completely restrained. The fifth floor of the Sword Tower was filled with Venerable Zang Tian's powerful and fierce aura. It was like an invisible blade that was cutting back and forth.
Waves of fierce aura constantly emanated from Sword Venerable Zangtian's body and then flowed into Venerable Zangtian's body. Venerable Zangtian, who was in the midst of cultivation, did not know that a deadly person had appeared behind him.
He floated as if he had lost gravity and approached like an aurora. Chu Mu's figure appeared behind Venerable Zang Tian. He stabbed out with his Sword Light.
Venerable Zang Tian was caught off guard. Chu Mu's sword seemed to appear out of thin air and stabbed towards Venerable Zang Tian's neck.
It was extremely fierce. Chu Mu's expression changed because the sword was blocked when it stabbed the back of Venerable Zang Tian's neck. A layer of invisible light blocked all eight sides of the Sky Desolation Sword.
Venerable Zang Tian quickly reacted to the sudden change. His Sword Origin exploded with full force. It was like a surging tide, bombarding out layer after layer. The power was astonishingly strong. The Sword Light bloomed and filled the air with coldness.
"Kill!" With a shout in his heart, Chu Mu did not panic. The powerful force penetrated the invisible defense and stabbed into Venerable Zang Tian's neck. Venerable Zang Tian felt a piercing pain and the erupting Sword Origin paused for a moment.
"Iron Slash!" With a flip of his wrist, he slashed out with his sword. It instantly cut through the bombarding Sword Origin and slashed towards Venerable Zang Tian's neck.
Venerable Zang Tian was worthy of his Complete Origin Realm cultivation base. As a Sword Venerable, he had rich experience in life and death battles. His reaction was extremely fast. When Chu Mu's sword was about to reach him, he immediately dodged with the best reaction.
However, Chu Mu's sword was fast enough and affected the surrounding space. Venerable Zang Tian's body was affected and his defense was cut open. The Sky Desolation Sword slashed open his shoulder and back. Blood spurted out and the wound was so deep that his bones could be seen. His hand that held the sword was severely injured.
Chu Mu knew the gap between him and a Sword Venerable. He could not let Venerable Zang Tian widen the gap. He took a step forward and slashed out without using any sword skill. In an instant, it was as if heaven and earth were separated. A beautiful painting of mountains and rivers unfolded slowly. It was a scene that made people forget to return.
"Damn it!" Venerable Zang Tian's face was filled with horror. He could not dodge or counterattack this sword. He had the strength but could not use it. Moreover, the hand that held the sword was severely injured. It was difficult for him to even hold the sword.
As expected, Chu Mu's sword brushed past Venerable Zang Tian's throat like a breeze. The sharp sword edge instantly cut open his throat.
Venerable Zang Tian widened his eyes and stared at Chu Mu. His lips trembled and he could not say a word. However, his expression showed that he had recognized Chu Mu.
Venerable Zang Tian fell back with a strong sense of unwillingness.
Outside, there was a commotion. Chu Mu knew that the explosion of Venerable Zang Tian's sword energy had alerted the others. In other words, the assassination had come to an end.
"I hope Senior Brother Xiao can kill a few more people." Chu Mu said to himself. He quickly put Venerable Zang Tian's supreme grade spatial bracer into his interspatial ring and rushed out of the Sword Tower.
"Die!" Xiao Qianfeng unleashed his full strength and no longer held back. He killed his opponent with a lifeless sword.
"The fifth one!"
The fluctuation of sword energy just now let Xiao Qianfeng know that he had been exposed. The fifth Origin Realm swordsman was alerted and counterattacked instantly. Xiao Qianfeng could only do this.
"Where did this thief come from? How dare he sneak into the Sky Burying Sword Sect. He deserves to die!" One of the Profound Astral Realm swordsmen yelled. The other two Profound Astral Realm swordsmen and Initial Astral Realm swordsmen all appeared from the tower and charged towards Xiao Qianfeng.
Chu Mu appeared in time and stopped one of them. He killed him with a single strike and his body fell from the sky.
The Origin Realm swordsman was also killed by Xiao Qianfeng with a single strike.
"So it's you. Die!" A voice full of killing intent seemed to explode in his ears. Chu Mu only saw the black color being filled with blood that rolled over. It was Senior Blood Fiend that had attacked and recognized him.
"Moon Cutting!"
"Dual Polarity!"
Xiao Chen unleashed both sword skills at full strength.
The trip to the Sword Saint's Remains had increased Chu Mu's sword intent to fifty-three percent. His Ripping Profound and Water and Fire Profound had also increased to thirty percent. Whether it was the power of Moon Cutting or Dual Polarity, both had increased significantly.
The ten-meter-long dark golden crescent moon pierced through the sky and slashed at the Blood Demon cloud. It was instantly devoured by the cloud, causing a series of explosions. A purple aurora broke through the sky and pierced through the Blood Demon cloud.
"Child's play. I'm going to refine you into a puppet." Senior Blood Fiend's voice rang out from the blood fiend cloud. It was so gloomy that it caused one to shudder. A palm condensed from blood fiend aura extended out from the blood fiend cloud and grabbed towards Chu Mu with an incomparably terrifying sword pressure. The momentary aura made Chu Mu understand that Senior Blood Fiend's strength was above Senior Zang Tian's. His puppet swordsmen charged towards Xiao Qianfeng.
"Sky Burying Secret Sword – Lifeless Kill!" Xiao Qianfeng instantly activated his secret technique and unleashed his Absolute Kill Sword Skill. A finger-sized grey sword light pierced through the sky and shot at the puppet.
"Sky Burying Secret Sword – Dual Polarity!" Chu Mu knew that he wasn't Venerable Blood Demon's opponent in this battle. He instantly activated his secret technique and unleashed Dual Polarity, causing its power to increase tenfold.
In an instant, a deep purple aurora as thick as an arm pierced through the void and shot at the Blood Demon cloud at an unimaginable speed.
In an instant, the deep and resplendent purple aurora pierced through Blood Demon's hand and shot into the Blood Demon cloud like a broken bamboo.
"Ah …" A miserable scream came from the Blood Demon cloud. "Damn you! I won't let you go!"
The Blood Demon cloud flew back in the miserable scream. Venerable Blood Demon didn't die, but he was severely injured by Dual Polarity and wanted to escape.
A wave of weakness rushed into his body. Chu Mu couldn't maintain his floating state and fell downwards. Xiao Qianfeng, who had also sent the puppet flying, also felt weak and fell downwards. There was no resistance to stop Venerable Blood Demon from escaping.
The figure in the sky suddenly moved. He pointed a finger and soundlessly, the Blood Demon cloud suddenly collapsed. A figure fell from the sky. The puppet that was sent flying by Xiao Qianfeng also paused in midair and then fell downwards.
The body of the last elder of the Sky Burying Sword Sect, who was attacking Xiao Qianfeng, trembled in midair. Like a bird that had been shot, he fell from the sky and died.
Chu Mu and Xiao Qianfeng barely managed to control their bodies and land on the ground. They hurriedly took out medicinal pills and consumed them. They let out a sigh of relief in their hearts.
