The Hundred Saints Alliance was located at the center of the Central Main Sword Domain and the center of the entire Ancient Sword Continent. It was the top existence on the Ancient Sword Continent.
The Hundred Saints Mountain was the highest mountain in the Central Main Sword Domain. It was not originally called the Hundred Saints Mountain, but changed its name because of the Hundred Saints Alliance.
The main hall of the Hundred Saints Alliance was located at the peak of the Hundred Saints Mountain. However, ordinary swordsmen were not qualified to enter the main hall of the Hundred Saints Alliance. They were either experts on the level of the Sword Of Gojoseon or swordsmen with special treatment.
The examination of Sword Venerables was not held in the main hall of the Hundred Saints Alliance. It was only for the examination of the Sword Of Gojoseon.
If the Central Main Sword Domain was divided into the inner circle at the center, the outer circle at the edge, and the middle circle in the middle of the inner circle and the outer circle, there was a branch palace in each of the eight directions in the middle circle: the branch palace of the Hundred Saints Alliance.
The one closest to Famous Sword City was the Hundred Saints Alliance's Southwest Branch Hall.
As soon as Chu Mu left Famous Sword City, he flew in a straight line, cutting through the sky, and headed for the Hundred Saints Alliance's Southwest Branch Hall.
Half a month later, Chu Mu arrived at the Hundred Saints Alliance's Southwest Branch Hall.
Usually, the Hundred Saints Alliance's Branch Hall was very quiet. There was only one person in charge, who could be regarded as the Hall Master of the Branch Hall.
For some reason, the Southwest Branch Hall was very lively today. When Chu Mu entered the Branch Hall, he saw as many as 19 swordsmen. Including himself, there were 20 swordsmen.
There were men and women. Some were less than 30 years old, while others were 40 or 50 years old. They all had different expressions, but the only thing in common was that they all exuded an astonishingly sharp aura.
When Chu Mu appeared, everyone's gaze fell on him and swept past him.
"Yan Jiuyou …" Chu Mu swept a glance and was slightly surprised when he saw a face that he had seen before.
Yan Jiuyou of the Underworld Sword Sect stood in the crowd like a crane in a flock of chickens. Waves of cold and gloomy aura emanated from his body, and the air seemed to be about to freeze. Anyone who approached him would feel as if they were about to be pulled into the Underworld, beyond redemption.
Underworld Sword Way!
With Yan Jiuyou's Mahayana Sword Way and his innate talent, there was no doubt that he would become the Sword Of Gojoseon in the future. He might even have a chance to become a Sword Saint.
Chu Mu recognized Yan Jiuyou, but Yan Jiuyou did not recognize Chu Mu. Therefore, he was directly ignored.
The Southwest Sub-Palace's Palace Master was a Sword Of Gojoseon. He wore a black robe and walked over elegantly.
He glanced over and saw that among the twenty swordsmen, there were quite a few who were younger. He was a little surprised.
"You're all here to participate in the Sword Venerable Trial, right?" The Southwest Sub Palace Lord said directly, "Sword Intent of 70%, and you must not be over 50 years old. Those who do not meet these two requirements, please leave."
No one moved. Everyone who wanted to participate in the Venerable Sword Trial knew of these two requirements. If they didn't meet the requirements, it would be a wasted trip and they would lose face. No one was that stupid.
There were one or two swordsmen who looked to be in their fifties, but in reality, they were not over fifty years old.
"As usual, release your sword intent," the Southwest Palace Master said.
Immediately, the twenty swordsmen released their sword intent one after another.
Sharp and powerful, the sword intent emitted a shocking power, cutting the air around them and piercing the sky.
The Sub-Palace Lord glanced over them one by one, feeling the sword intent of each swordsman. 70% … 70% … 70% …
All of them were at 70% sword intent.
For these swordsmen to be able to comprehend 70% sword intent, it meant that their comprehension was very high. At the same time, they all had their own opportunities. Perhaps they had already been to the Famous Sword Tower.
The Famous Sword Tower was not the only place that could accelerate the improvement of sword intent. In fact, there were similar sacred grounds within the top ten sword sects. Therefore, many outstanding disciples of the top ten sword sects did not need to go to the Famous Sword Tower to compete.
After all, the higher the level of sword intent, the smaller the benefits after entering the Famous Sword Tower. Once the sword intent exceeded 70%, the effect of entering the Famous Sword Tower would be minimal.
For example, Yan Jiuyou had never been to the Famous Sword Tower because he did not need it. As a highly valued disciple of the Underworld Sword Sect, he had all the cultivation resources he needed. Therefore, Yan Jiuyou was able to have the strength to challenge a Sword Sovereign in just a few years after reaching the Origin Realm.
Among this group of people, Yan Jiuyou was the focus.
"Withdraw your sword intent. Next is the Sword Sovereign test. Defeat your opponents and you will pass the test," the Southwest Palace Lord said.
The Sword Sovereign test was similar to the Sword Hero test. It was difficult, but also not difficult. As long as one's strength was raised to a certain level and mastered the application, they would be able to defeat their opponents and pass the test to become a Sword Sovereign.
"Follow the order, one by one," the Sub-Palace Lord said as he shot out sword energy from his hands and opened a door in the void.
The first one standing was a male swordsman in his thirties. He walked directly into the door and disappeared as if he was swallowed. After about a quarter of an hour, the male swordsman walked out of the light door. His eyes were shining and his aura was fierce. Obviously, he had just experienced a great battle.
Then, a ray of light appeared on the Sword Sovereign's Sword Stele. It shone out and quickly retracted, forming a line of words.
Zhao Shengting, Raging Thunder Sword Sovereign!
The Southwest Palace Lord did not say anything and signaled the second swordsman to enter.
This time, in less than a quarter of an hour, this swordsman also came out. His aura was also fluctuating, as if he had just experienced a great battle. A line of words appeared on the Sword Sovereign's Sword Stele. His name and the corresponding title of Sword Sovereign.
The title of Sword Sovereign could be changed, but there was only one chance.
For example, Chu Mu's title was Zhen Tian Sword Hero when he was a Sword Hero. However, if he passed the Sword Sovereign test, he could change his title and continue to use the title of Zhen Tian.
Most swordsmen would not change their titles. Only when there were some changes would they change their titles. For example, after becoming a Sword Hero and obtaining a Sword Dao Inheritance, then after becoming a Sword Sovereign, they might use the Sword Dao Inheritance as their title.
However, every title was unique. In other words, once someone had used a title, no one else could use it unless that person died.
The third swordsman entered. This swordsman took a full quarter of an hour and several dozen breaths to come out. He looked a little embarrassed, but he still passed the test and became a Sword Sovereign.
Fourth, fifth, sixth …
Yan Jiuyou was the seventh to enter.
Soon, after about sixty breaths of time, Yan Jiuyou reappeared. Other than the aura around him becoming colder, no one could tell that he had gone through any battle.
Yan Jiuyou, Sword Sovereign Nether Spring!
This line of words appeared on the Sword Sovereign's Sword Stele.
"Not bad … not bad …" The Southwest Palace Lord, who had been silent all this time, suddenly nodded and said.
The swordsmen who had already passed the assessment looked at Yan Jiuyou in shock. Only they knew how difficult the assessment was. Yan Jiuyou had actually passed it so quickly. His strength was truly astonishing, far surpassing theirs.
Yan Jiuyou stood to the side with an indifferent face, without any expression.
The eighth swordsman entered …
The ninth swordsman entered …
Time passed and the nineteenth swordsman also entered.
So far, other than Yan Jiuyou who had only used sixty breaths of time to pass the test, the other swordsmen had used at least half a quarter of an hour.
After some time, the nineteenth swordsman also appeared and used nearly a quarter of an hour to pass the test.
The length of the test showed the strength of an individual. So far, Yan Jiuyou's strength was the strongest, far surpassing that of the other swordsmen.
Chu Mu was the last to enter.
In this regard, no one thought that Chu Mu could surpass Yan Jiuyou. The reason why they had not left yet was because the Southwest Palace Lord had not yet issued the sword token that symbolized the status of Sword Sovereign to them. They could only continue to wait for Chu Mu to finish the test and issue it together.
Walking into the door of light, time and space alternated and Chu Mu appeared in a small world. He couldn't see the sky or the ground. Only white clouds floated around him.
Immediately after, a figure seemed to gradually condense out of nothingness. It was a swordsman who looked somewhat similar to Chu Mu, but also somewhat similar to any other swordsman that Chu Mu had seen before.
He was Chu Mu's opponent. As soon as his opponent appeared, a sharp sword intent gushed out from his body, piercing through the clouds and shattering them. Seventy percent sword intent!
Tyrannical sword energy also surged in the surroundings at the same time. Peak of the Complete Origin Realm.
In an instant, his opponent attacked.
In just the blink of an eye, his opponent had consecutively slashed out over a hundred times. Every single slash formed a sword light that contained powerful Sword Origin, sharp and fierce Sword Intent, as well as the Wind and Fire Profundities. Numerous cyan flames converged into a flaming storm that rumbled and swept through the heavens and the earth. Its might was astonishing and endless.
The fire borrowed the power of the wind, and the wind aided the fire. The fusion of the profound of wind and the profound of fire greatly increased the power of this sword skill, making it extremely terrifying.
Chu Mu could feel that his profound of wind and fire had both reached forty percent.
His opponent for the test was a standard Sword Venerable.
In other words, the Sword Venerable Level that was recognized by the Hundred Saints Alliance must be at the peak of the Completion of the Astral Realm, 70% sword intent, and at least 40% dual profound fusion to display the power of the sword technique.
The strength of a Sword Venerable that was recognized by other places was more or less different.
The cyan firestorm was extremely terrifying as it swept towards Chu Mu. All the clouds in the surroundings were shattered and turned into nothingness.
Chu Mu could feel the scorching heat and sharp cutting power from the cyan flames. This was a true Sword Venerable.
Without dodging or retreating, Chu Mu's eyes reflected the cyan firestorm. In the depths of his pupils, traces of dark gold appeared and disappeared.
In the next moment, Chu Mu pulled out his sword.
The ten-meter-long dark gold crescent moon seemed to be made of dark gold metal. It was covered with mysterious and complete patterns as it tore through the sky. (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.)
