Seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven meters!
Looking with the naked eye, the hundreds of thousands of sword sovereigns were divided into several levels. The highest level had already reached seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven meters, while the lowest level was still struggling at five thousand five hundred and fifty-five meters.
At this level, the difference in strength between sword sovereigns could be clearly seen.
The pressure from the Hundred Saints Mountain was the same for everyone. However, different sword sovereigns had different abilities in all aspects, so their resistance to the pressure varied as well.
Chu Mu discovered that his powerful body had an obvious resistance to pressure. For example, his second level Sky Desolation Sword Body was ten times stronger than ordinary Origin Realm swordsmen. He could still withstand the pressure from the Hundred Saints Mountain.
As he rushed up, Chu Mu also discovered that some of the swordsmen around him had extraordinary bodies. Clearly, they had cultivated some kind of body-refining technique. Their bodies were much stronger than ordinary Origin Realm swordsmen.
Eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight meters!
The peak of the Hundred Saints Mountain was already right in front of him.
However, the pressure increased once again, causing every sword sovereign's speed to decrease. Their bodies became extremely heavy, and their footsteps became heavy as well. It was as if they were tied up with two mountains.
Every time he took a step forward, his foot would land heavily on the ground. With a bang, it was extremely shocking, and the mountain rocks were shattered.
Because the hundreds of thousands of sword sovereigns were scattered, charging towards the peak from all directions of the Hundred Saints Mountain, the visible sword sovereigns were only a small portion of them.
At the last one thousand one hundred and eleven meters, the sword sovereigns no longer held back and unleashed their full strength.
Rumbling sounds came from the bodies of many sword sovereigns like rolling thunder. Powerful auras exploded as their speed instantly increased. With a whoosh, they surpassed the other sword sovereigns.
Even the sword sovereigns who fell behind didn't give up. They unleashed their full strength and even used secret techniques. Even if they were eliminated, they didn't have any regrets.
After all, there was a difference between the strong and the weak.
Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine meters was right in front of them.
"It won't be difficult to enter the top ten thousand." Chu Mu estimated. He didn't plan on using the profound of space.
However, other than the profound of space, he had already used all his strength.
Finally, after rushing past 9999 meters and reaching the peak of the Hundred Sacred Mountains, the Sword Venerables suddenly felt as if they had broken free from their shackles and were about to soar into the sky.
Of course, it was still impossible to fly here. However, because the terrifying pressure from before had disappeared, it suddenly became extremely easy. In just a few breaths of time, the Sword Venerables had adapted.
"Even if it's the 10,000th place, I'm going to make it in." The Sword Venerables who had yet to reach the top roared in anger. With a bang, they crashed into an invisible wall. The invisible wall had a soft and tough power, and instantly, the Sword Venerables who had crashed into it were bounced away.
"What happened?"
"I've already rushed to the top of the mountain, why can't I go up?"
Many Sword Venerables were blocked by the invisible wall. Their expressions changed drastically as they shouted in shock.
Chu Mu and the other Sword Venerables who had already reached the peak of the Hundred Saints Mountain were also very confused. They didn't understand what was going on.
"All of you have not entered the top 10,000 and have been eliminated. You may turn around and leave now." An aged yet resonant voice seemed to descend from the sky. It was vast and mighty, and its might was boundless.
"Not in the top 10,000 …" The Sword Venerables' faces turned deathly pale.
Even though they had already thought that they wouldn't be able to enter the top 10,000, they still tried their best to fight for that slim chance. Until now, when they were told that they wouldn't be able to enter the top 10,000, the word "eliminated" was like a huge hammer smashing on their hearts, making it difficult for them to breathe.
The reality was so cruel. The difference in strength meant that they had no fate with the Unparalleled Sword Venerables.
Even though they were extremely unwilling, even though some Sword Venerables felt that they hadn't used their full strength, they had already been eliminated. They couldn't blame anyone. If they had to blame someone, they could only blame themselves for not grasping the right time.
With a trace of unwillingness, these Sword Venerables all turned around and looked back at the ten thousand Sword Venerables who had reached the top of the mountain. They suddenly shook their heads and strode down the mountain.
It was said that going up the mountain was easier than going down the mountain. However, it didn't apply here, because the pressure on going up the mountain was getting stronger and stronger, while the pressure on going down the mountain was getting weaker and weaker.
Chu Mu and the ten thousand Sword Venerables stood on the spacious land on the top of the mountain. Ten thousand meters away, there was a very large palace. It was grand and ancient, and it was the main hall of the Hundred Saints Alliance.
"First of all, I would like to congratulate you for successfully standing out from hundreds of thousands of Sword Venerables and entering the real Unparalleled Sword Venerables Conference." A voice came from the main hall of the Hundred Saints Alliance. Then, a figure walked out of the main hall.
Compared to the open door of the main hall, the figure was like an ant. However, no one felt that he was small. He had a sense of majesty that stood between the heaven and earth.
He was wearing a black robe and looked to be in his forties. However, his hair was white, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were obvious. His fair skin was full of vicissitudes of life. His actual age was far beyond what he looked like.
A vague aura surrounded him. When everyone looked at him, they felt that his body seemed to be infinitely enlarged. However, he had never moved. With a flash, like an illusion, he had already arrived in front of everyone. It seemed that he had been standing here for a long time and had become one with the Hundred Saints Mountain under his feet.
All kinds of mysteries seemed to emanate from his body.
A Sword Saint. He must be a Sword Saint.
Usually, it was extremely difficult for swordsmen to see a Sword Saint. Even the important disciples of the top ten Sword Clans could not see a Sword Saint unless there was a major event.
After all, there were not many Sword Saints in the top ten Sword Clans. However, they were all at the top. They had long stopped caring about worldly affairs and focused on cultivation.
Even if they were strong-willed, it would be a lie to say that they weren't excited when they saw a Sword Saint standing in front of them and speaking. However, they were able to control their emotions very well and quickly adjusted themselves.
"Congratulations again. You will be able to obtain a great opportunity." The Sword Saint smiled mysteriously again. What he said confused Chu Mu and the ten thousand Sword Venerables because they did not know why the Unparalleled Sword Venerables Conference was suddenly held.
There should be a purpose for everything. The Unparalleled Sword Venerables Conference had never been held before, but it was held this time. There must be a reason for it.
What was the so-called great opportunity?
For a moment, everyone was very curious. However, the Sword Saint did not explain. Even if some Sword Venerables were anxious, there was nothing they could do. They could not pull out their swords and force the Sword Saint to speak.
"You can cultivate here for a month. After a month, the real Unparalleled Sword Venerables Conference will be held." The Sword Saint changed the topic and said with a smile, "During this month, you can choose to give up. However, those who give up will have to leave this place."
Give up?
The ten thousand Sword Venerables did not have such thoughts. They had come all the way here to participate in the Unparalleled Sword Venerables Conference and stand out among hundreds of thousands of Sword Venerables. How could they give up?
The word 'give up' was crushed by the Sword Venerables before it clearly appeared in their minds. However, they became excited.
Cultivate here for a month?
This was the main hall of the Hundred Saints Alliance. Normally, those who were not at the level of the Sword Of Gojoseon were not qualified to enter this place.
They were only Sword Venerables. Although they were one level lower than the Sword Of Gojoseon, the gap between their strength was more than a hundred times.
Many Sword Venerables did not even know if they could break through to the next level.
In addition, the Spiritual Qi in this place was unusually pure and very rich. It was very helpful for cultivation.
Chu Mu didn't feel too happy because the spirit aura here was pure and dense. It had nothing to do with him. What he needed was pure desolate aura.
Perhaps the Sword Origin of other Sword Venerables would be purer if they cultivated here, but it would be very difficult for Chu Mu. It was very disadvantageous for him. Fortunately, Chu Mu had a rare treasure like the Millennium Stalactite.
"During this month, you can communicate and learn from each other. However, you must not have any conflicts. Otherwise, you will be expelled," the Sword Saint said in a serious tone. This was not a warning, but a fact.
"Alright. Next, someone will arrange accommodation for you." After the Sword Saint finished speaking, he disappeared instantly as if he had never appeared.
Because the area was very spacious, the ten thousand Sword Venerables standing at the top of the Hundred Saints Mountain did not look crowded at all. Instead, it looked very loose.
"Where's that wild beast of yours?" A voice rang out next to Chu Mu's ear. He turned around and saw a pair of cold eyes staring at him, emitting a cold aura.
"So it's you." Chu Mu smiled. "You want your sword back?"
This person was the Sword Venerables who tried to kill Chu Mu when he was riding on Bawang. In the end, not only did he not succeed, but he was also defeated by Chu Mu and escaped.
Hearing Chu Mu mention this, the Sword Venerables' expression became even colder.
"Just you wait. In a month, I will personally make you kneel and beg for mercy." The Sword Venerables said ruthlessly and turned to leave.
"Junior Brother Chu, I didn't expect you to be here too." A gentle voice sounded. Chu Mu turned around and was stunned. He then smiled. "Senior Brother Chen, long time no see."
This person had shoulder-length hair, and his eyes were almost narrowed into a line. There was always a faint smile on his face. He was one of the Great Kun Sword Mansion's Sons of Swords, Chen Bu 'er.
Two people walked over with Chen Bu 'er. It was a man and a woman. The man wore a golden robe with dragon patterns on it. His aura was domineering as if he was looking down on the world. Meanwhile, the woman wore a light yellow robe and a veil. Her aura fluctuated gently as if it was a musical note.
Chu Mu immediately knew the identities of these two people.
Huangfu Huangtian and Shangguan Qinyin.
Although he was a little surprised, it was not impossible for Huangfu Huangtian, Shangguan Qinyin, and Chen Bu 'er to make it into the top ten thousand. After all, they had been Sword Venerables for more than ten years. They had extraordinary talent and were considered rather powerful among the Sword Venerables. (To be continued.
