"I'm very sorry for the deaths of the five of them."
Within the Sword Hunter Mansion of the Holy City of the Wild, Gu Yue said to Chu Mu and the other seven primary Sword Hunters that were still alive.
"From the moment we accepted the mission, we hung our heads on our waists." A primary Sword Hunter wryly smiled. In the eyes of others, they were 'adults', but in reality, they were just slightly stronger swordsmen. They would be afraid, they would panic, they would die, and they would constantly struggle to survive.
"No matter what, this time, our Blood Red Squad's goal was achieved. But there were some unforeseen circumstances, and we were almost completely wiped out. For this reason, I've decided to give each of you 9000 hunting points." Gu Yue solemnly said.
"9000!" Chu Mu and the others were suddenly shocked.
According to the previous agreement, they should have received 4000 hunting points after completing the mission, and then increased it by 1000, which was 5000. But now, it had increased to 9000.
No one refused, because no one would dislike having more hunting points.
Thus, Chu Mu's primary Sword Hunting Token increased by 9000 hunting points, reaching a total of 10,000. This meant that he could enter the Enlightenment Pagoda or the Ten Thousand Killing Array for 100 hours.
100 hours. With Chu Mu's perception, it was enough to significantly enhance the Concept of Void, and greatly increase his survivability.
"Everyone, I hope that we will have a chance to cooperate next time." Finally, Gu Yue said with a smile.
"Goodbye." The primary Sword Hunters saluted and left.
"Sir Chu Mu, please wait." As Chu Mu was about to leave, he was stopped by Gu Yue.
"Captain Gu Yue, what advice do you have for me?" Chu Mu asked.
"Although it's a bit presumptuous, I'll be direct. I don't know if Sir Chu Mu plans to join any group?" Gu Yue asked with a smile.
"Thank you for Captain Gu Yue's good intentions, but I don't have any plans to join any group." Chu Mu understood Gu Yue's meaning, and tactfully refused.
"If Sir Chu Mu has plans, then you can talk to me about it." Gu Yue said with a smile.
"Alright, then I'll take my leave first." Chu Mu turned and left.
"Captain, he's just a beginner Sword Hunter," one of the team members said.
"He has a lot of potential." Gu Yue said, then shook his head and changed the topic: "Let's go, we should get rid of these eggs."
…
Chu Mu was not in a hurry to head to the Dao Enlightenment Pagoda. Instead, he returned to the house he had bought.
Sitting on a chair, Chu Mu held a fist-sized stone in his hand. The entire stone was black in color, and there seemed to be little crystals scattered on it. When there was light, it would shine.
Chu Mu felt that the stone was constantly emitting a strange fluctuation, but it was very subtle and he couldn't distinguish it.
When he took the stone away, it was purely a subconscious action. He didn't know what it was. Perhaps it was a treasure, or perhaps it was just an ordinary stone.
"Could it be …" Chu Mu's eyes lit up as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind.
"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. It seems that I can only check the relevant books. If it is, it must be very precious." Chu Mu thought.
If his guess was true, then the value of this stone might be above the hundred plus Savage Clawed Dragon eggs.
However, for a moment, Chu Mu didn't know where to go to read the relevant books.
After resting for a while, Chu Mu left the house and headed to the Dao Enlightenment Pagoda.
"Stop!" A low voice seemed to explode in his ears. Then, a figure flashed and surrounded Chu Mu.
Chu Mu looked and saw that it was the Mad Killer Squad. However, it wasn't seven, but five. He didn't know if not all of them had arrived or if two of them had died.
At this time, the members of the Mad Killer Squad looked unfriendly, as if they wanted to tear apart Chu Mu's body. Especially Sha Kuang's face and eyes, which were incomparably gloomy and full of killing intent. That kind of eyes seemed to want to pierce through Chu Mu.
"You'd better stay in the city obediently. Once you leave the city and we find out, you're dead." Sha Kuang growled word by word. His voice was like thunder rolling out from his throat and into Chu Mu's ears.
"I'll wait." Chu Mu's eyes were indifferent. He didn't show the slightest bit of fear.
"Good, very good, very good!" Sha Kuang's gloomy face revealed a sneer. Those familiar with Sha Kuang knew that this was how he looked like when his anger reached its peak.
"Captain!" The team members beside him suddenly became anxious.
They were very familiar with Sha Kuang, so they knew that Sha Kuang was on the verge of exploding. If he didn't restrain himself, he would definitely explode and attack.
At that time, regardless of whether he killed Sha Kuang or not, he would be hunted down by the Sacred Sword Guards. Unless he left the Sacred City of the Wildlands forever and never set foot in it again, the price would be too great.
Sha Kuang immediately sobered up after being shouted at by his team members. He glared at Chu Mu fiercely as if he wanted to brand Chu Mu. Then, he suddenly shook his head and said, "Let's go."
He didn't dare to stay any longer. He was afraid that he would explode and attack again. The price would be too great.
The other four members of the Berserker Squad also glared at Chu Mu fiercely before turning around and leaving.
Chu Mu retracted his gaze and walked towards the Enlightenment Pagoda as if nothing had happened.
After paying ten million upper grade spiritual stones and ten thousand hunting points, Chu Mu entered the first level of the Enlightenment Pagoda and started comprehending the Wukong state.
One hundred hours meant more than eight days. As for the upper grade spiritual stones, apart from the Primary Realm swordsmen he had killed, they were mainly from the ruins of the Sky Dragon Sword Saint.
Of course, for Chu Mu, ten million upper grade spiritual stones wasn't a small amount.
In the blink of an eye, more than eight days had passed. For Chu Mu, who was in seclusion in the Enlightenment Pagoda to comprehend the Wukong state, it was like a short second.
"Seventy percent of the Void state!"
From thirty percent to minor completion, and then to the current Dacheng, Chu Mu had gained a lot in these two hundred hours.
As a profound and special state, it was even better than a high-end mutated state like the Laceration state. Therefore, seventy percent of the Void state was actually better than a hundred percent of the normal state. If there were a hundred and twenty percent state of the Void state, then seventy percent of the Void state would be equivalent to a hundred and twenty percent state of the normal state.
However, the state of the Void and the profound were two different levels of power. Therefore, no matter how powerful the Void state was, it couldn't be compared to the profound. After all, they weren't on the same level.
"I still need more hunting points to comprehend the Void state to the profound level." After leaving the Enlightenment Pagoda, Chu Mu planned to return to his house first.
On the way, he met the captain of the Bloody Mang Squad, Gu Yue.
"Captain Gu Yue."
"Sir Chu Mu."
Seeing Chu Mu, Gu Yue seemed to be very happy, which puzzled Chu Mu.
"Sir Chu Mu, if I may ask, did the Berserker Squad come to threaten you?" Gu Yue asked.
"Yes." Chu Mu said.
"As expected." Gu Yue's face became very ugly, "Sir Chu Mu, let's find a place to talk."
"Alright." Chu Mu nodded.
…
In the Holy City of Wilderness, there were inns and restaurants. Chu Mu and Gu Yue sat on the third floor of a restaurant, near the window. There were several dishes and wine on the table.
"The Berserker Squad and the Bloody Mang Squad have always been on bad terms. There have been several conflicts." Gu Yue drank a cup of wine and said, "This time, after obtaining the Savage Clawed Dragon's egg, it caused a conflict between us. With Sha Kuang's personality, he will definitely find trouble with you."
Chu Mu didn't answer.
"Other than you, Senior Chu Mu, the others have all been killed in these eight days. Their heads have all been sent to me." Gu Yue's face became extremely gloomy, as if water was about to drip out of it.
Chu Mu was shocked. They were all killed?
And their heads were sent to Gu Yue?
This method was really cruel.
This was a provocation to Gu Yue and the Bloody Mang Squad. At the same time, it was also a threat to Chu Mu.
"I thought that Sir Chu Mu wouldn't be able to escape from the enemy. Fortunately, Sir Chu Mu is safe and sound." Gu Yue said, "I am very sorry about this. The hatred between the Berserker Squad and my Bloody Mang Squad has affected you."
"Captain Gu Yue, you don't need to feel guilty." Chu Mu said.
Gu Yue issued a mission, and Chu Mu and the others accepted it. Both sides were willing to cooperate with each other.
"Sir Chu Mu, what do you plan to do next?" Gu Yue didn't bother with this question.
"Same as before." Chu Mu said with a smile.
"Sir Chu Mu, why don't you join our Bloody Mang Squad? We can take care of each other." Gu Yue said.
"Thank you for your kindness, Captain Gu Yue, but I am used to moving alone." Chu Mu tactfully refused again.
"That's a pity." Gu Yue shook his head and said, "In that case, I won't force you. However, Sir Chu Mu must be careful. Don't run into the Berserker Squad. Otherwise, your life will be in danger."
"I'm not that easy to kill." Chu Mu smiled and changed the topic, "Oh right, Captain Gu Yue, may I ask how much you know about the mutation of the Savage Beasts?"
"I don't know much." Although he was surprised by Chu Mu's question, Gu Yue still answered, "I roughly know that the mutation of the Savage Beasts is caused by the mutation of their bloodline. As for why the mutation of their bloodline would occur, there are many possibilities. It could be due to the mating of different Savage Beasts, or it could be due to the influence of some treasure."
"I wonder if there is such a treasure in the Savage Clawed Dragon Tribe?" Chu Mu seemed to be talking to himself.
"There shouldn't be. If there was, there would definitely be a strange fluctuation." Gu Yue said. He didn't know that Chu Mu had taken away a strange stone.
"My understanding of this is still too little. Where can I find it?" Chu Mu smiled.
"That's easy. I have it here." Gu Yue smiled and took out a silk book that was as thick as a finger and handed it to Chu Mu, "This book records many treasures of the Ancient Savage Desolation Realm. I'll give it to you. I hope it will help you understand the Ancient Savage Desolation Realm."
"Then it would be impolite for me to refuse." Chu Mu smiled and received the book.
