"Although Yang Lianfeng likes to be in the limelight, he's quite capable. However, I can't see through this swordsman called Chu Mu. Perhaps there'll be a fierce battle in half a year," Feng Qi said.
"Anyway, there'll be a good show in half a year," Su Xiaoxiao said happily.
The Nine Barbarians had a gentle smile on their faces while Ye Wushuang looked indifferent as if it had nothing to do with him.
However, news of the battle between Chu Mu and Yang Lianfeng in half a year was spread out. Within a short period of time, almost all the swordsmen in the Saint City knew about it.
"Yang Lianfeng passed the Sword Hunter test. That's expected, but who is this Chu Mu?"
"I heard that this swordsman called Chu Mu is still very young and is quite talented. Previously, he displayed the attack power of an ordinary Sword Venerable on the sword stele. At that time, he was only at the peak of the Origin Stage."
"Oh, it seems like this swordsman called Chu Mu has the ability to go against Yang Lianfeng."
"That's true, but this swordsman called Chu Mu is alone. There's still half a year before the battle. He might not even survive this half a year."
"Yang Lianfeng is favored by the Jade Sword Gang's leader. Now that he's a Sword Hunter, he'll definitely be heavily trained. In half a year, his strength will definitely soar. I have high hopes for him."
There were all sorts of discussions in the Saint City. However, most of them had high hopes for Yang Lianfeng and not for Chu Mu.
This was because they had no knowledge of Chu Mu, but they knew Yang Lianfeng better.
Inside the Jade Sword Gang.
"He's going to have a battle with Lianfeng. Investigate this person immediately. If he's too big of a threat, eliminate him immediately," the Jade Sword Gang's leader said coldly.
"Yes."
…
With the Sword Hunter Token, Chu Mu had the right to enter the Wild Holy City as he wished. However, if he wanted to stay here for a longer period of time, it was best to buy a house.
Fang Brick was very familiar with the Holy Wild City because he had been here for seven or eight years. It could be said that he was a living map of the Holy Wild City. He was even very familiar with many places in the Ancient Wild Realm.
After learning that Chu Mu had come to the Holy City of Wildlands by himself, Square Brick took the initiative to befriend Chu Mu. He seemed to have some conflict with Yang Lianfeng and the other Five Talents.
This might have something to do with his past experiences.
Under Fang Brick's guidance, Chu Mu quickly bought a property in a place that was neither too remote nor too busy. It was a small courtyard that covered an area of about 60 square meters. There was a room, a living room, and a small courtyard.
This was just for living purposes. Chu Mu was alone, so he didn't need too much space.
Even so, this property, which was only about 60 square meters in size, cost more than 6 million high-grade spirit stones.
In the Wild Holy City, the price of property had always been high. The cheapest one cost 50,000 high-grade spirit stones per square meter, while the most expensive one went as high as 300,000 high-grade spirit stones per square meter. If it was a hundred square meters, it would cost 30 million high-grade spirit stones. This was a price that most Sword Artists couldn't afford.
Chu Mu could afford it, but to him, 30 million high-grade spirit stones wasn't a small amount. It wasn't worth it for him to buy such a property.
In the Wild Holy City, the price of property was only related to the location and size. It didn't mean that the more expensive the property, the more beneficial it was for cultivation. Since that was the case, as long as the location wasn't too remote and the property wasn't too bad, Chu Mu could accept it.
Because of the Elementary Sword Hunter Token, there was a 30% discount when buying property. Therefore, Chu Mu only needed to pay 4 million high-grade spirit stones.
"Brother Chu, Brother Chu, you can be considered as someone who owns a house now." Fang Brick joked with a smile.
"If Brother Fang is willing, you can have one too." Chu Mu said. He already knew that Fang Brick had been living in the Wild Holy City for the past seven or eight years, and he had rented a house.
Compared to buying a property, renting a house was much cheaper.
"I'm used to renting a house." Fang Brick smiled and said, "It's better to use spirit stones in other places. It's more important to enhance one's strength."
Fang Brick was able to survive in the Wild Holy City for seven or eight years, and even pass the Sword Hunter assessment six times. This had a great deal to do with his perseverance. Aside from renting a house, the other spirit stones could be used to enhance one's strength.
"Brother Chu, Brother Chu, what's your next plan?" Fang Brick asked.
"I'll go to the Ten Thousand Killing Array and the Enlightenment Pagoda." Chu Mu said.
"That's right. In half a year, Brother Chu will fight with Yang Lianfeng. You must increase your strength as much as possible during this time." Fang Brick nodded, "Brother Chu, how much do you know about the Ten Thousand Killing Array and the Enlightenment Pagoda?"
"Brother Fang, please enlighten me." Chu Mu said.
"I wouldn't dare to enlighten you. I've been here for a long time, so I know more." Fang Brick laughed and said, "The Ten Thousand Killing Array is mainly for fighting. Inside the Ten Thousand Killing Array, your strength and sword essence will never be consumed. You can freely use sword skills, and it is an excellent place to hone your sword skills. The Enlightenment Pagoda can enhance your perception, and enhance your comprehension of sword intent and profound meanings."
Chu Mu nodded. He felt that Fang Brick had not finished speaking.
"The Ten Thousand Killing Array has no levels, and the Enlightenment Pagoda is divided into three levels." Sure enough, Fang Brick continued to say, "As long as you are a Sword Hunter, you can enter the Ten Thousand Killing Array. The first level of the Enlightenment Pagoda is suitable for primary Sword Hunters, the second level is suitable for intermediate Sword Hunters, and the third level is suitable for high level Sword Hunters. It is said that the first level of the Enlightenment Pagoda can double one's perception, the second level can double it, and the third level can triple it. "
"Triple perception!" Chu Mu's eyes flashed with a sharp light.
His perception was amazing. Once it was increased by three times, what sort of terrifying level would he reach? Just thinking about it was terrifying.
However, if he wanted to enter the third level, he had to first become a high level Sword Hunter. At that time, Chu Mu estimated that he would have already left the Ancient Wild Desolate Realm.
"A doubling of perception is also good." Thinking to himself, Chu Mu asked, "Are there any other conditions to enter the Dao Comprehension Pagoda or the Ten Thousand Killing Array?"
"Of course there are. Becoming a Sword Hunter is only the standard to enter." Fang Brick was worthy of being called a veteran of the Ancient Wild Sacred City. He explained, "You see the hunting points in the Sword Hunting Command. It is said that if you want to enter the Ten Thousand Killing Array or the Enlightenment Pagoda, you must consume hunting points and spirit stones. As for how much you need, I'm not too clear."
"So that's how it is." Chu Mu nodded. His Sword Hunting Command had a hunting point of 100. This was the hunting point that every new Sword Hunter that passed the Sword Hunter assessment would obtain.
"If you want to know the hunting points required to enter the Ten Thousand Killing Array or the Enlightenment Pagoda, you will have to personally go there to find out." Fang Brick said, "It's better if we go together. It just so happens that I also want to understand."
"Let's go."
Under the guidance of Fang Brick, the living map of the Ancient Wild Sacred City, Chu Mu took the shortest route to the Ten Thousand Killing Array. The Ten Thousand Killing Array was naturally managed by someone. After asking around, they learned that if they wanted to enter the Ten Thousand Killing Array, they needed to consume hunting points and spirit stones. Generally, it was high-grade spirit stones, and even top-grade spirit stones were fine.
"Two hours will consume 100 hunting points and 100,000 high-grade spirit stones or 10,000 top-grade spirit stones." Chu Mu and Fang Brick couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
With this kind of consumption, even a rich Sword Hunter wouldn't be able to support it for a long time.
And in a short period of cultivation, unless it was an accumulation of points, it was very unlikely that they would be able to achieve significant results.
Then, they went to the Enlightenment Pagoda.
After asking around, they learned that the Enlightenment Pagoda was the same as the Ten Thousand Killing Array. The first floor would consume 100 hunting points and 100,000 high-grade spirit stones or 10,000 top-grade spirit stones.
As for the second floor, because Chu Mu and Fang Brick didn't have enough authority, they didn't know.
"It seems that we can only experience it for two hours." Fang Brick said with a helpless sigh.
"Let's go to the Sword Hunter Mansion to pick up some missions and earn some hunting points. Then we can directly enter the Enlightenment Pagoda or the Ten Thousand Killing Array." Chu Mu said.
"That's the only way." Fang Brick said with a sigh.
Although it would take some time, they had a full understanding of the difficulty, and it would be beneficial for their future preparations.
…
Chu Mu and Fang Brick arrived at the Sword Hunter Mansion. There were both regular missions and special missions.
Regular missions were to hunt and kill at least Earth-shattering level wild beasts. One could turn in the beast's body, core, and so on for hunting points. Generally, one wouldn't obtain too many hunting points. As for special missions, they were relatively rare, but once completed, one could obtain more hunting points.
Although there were dozens of cores in the spatial ring, they were all from Steel-shattering level wild beasts. They simply couldn't be exchanged for hunting points.
"If I want to absorb the power of these cores to practice, I can indeed improve my cultivation. I can probably reach the peak of Small Success, but it will take several months." Chu Mu thought, "Half a year from now, I will fight Yang Lianfeng. I can only win, not lose, so half a year is very precious. I can't waste it on cultivation."
Regular missions didn't need to be accepted. As long as they hunted Earth-shattering level wild beasts or higher, they could directly turn in the points. As for special missions, he estimated that his luck wasn't good, and he didn't find a suitable one.
"Brother Chu, Brother Chu, let's form a small team and hunt together. The harvest will be split 50-50, and the rest will belong to you." Fang Brick said.
"Okay." Chu Mu didn't hesitate and immediately agreed.
With his current strength, hunting Earth-shattering level wild beasts wasn't impossible, but the efficiency would be low. If he joined forces with Fang Brick, the efficiency would increase by more than two times, or even three times.
As for the distribution method that Fang Brick mentioned, it was a very common distribution method. They would hunt together and divide equally. If an individual hunted a beast or found a treasure, it would belong to them.
Of course, if he needed the other party's help, he would have to give a part of it to the other party as a reward.
Even blood-related brothers had to settle accounts clearly. They had to make it clear in advance, so as to avoid looking for an excuse to have conflicts later. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
