Only one thousand two hundred and fifty Sword Venerables participated in the fourth round.
Basically, the Sword Venerables who could make it to this round were all very powerful. None of them were high level Sword Venerables. At the very least, they were peak Sword Venerables. The chances of a well-matched opponent appearing were getting higher and higher. The battles were getting more and more intense.
The top ten Sword Venerables still defeated their opponents with a single sword strike. Regardless of whether their opponents were peak Sword Venerables or peak Sword Venerables, none of them could force them to use their full strength.
In the 358th battle, Chu Mu appeared on the Myriad Battle Platform once again.
"I've said it before, I'll leave my sword with you first. I'll take it back with your life." Chu Mu's opponent had a cold look in his eyes. It was the same Sword Venerables who attacked Chu Mu on the way to the Unparalleled Sword Venerables Gathering in an attempt to steal Bawang. "Here, I'll take your life first."
As soon as his voice faded, he didn't give Chu Mu a chance to speak. He unsheathed his sword and the Sword Light split into several hundred rays, bombarding Chu Mu from all directions like a meteor shower. It seemed to be impossible for Chu Mu to dodge.
However, Chu Mu turned the impossible into possible. His figure fluttered like a ghost as he shuttled through the dense Sword Light like a meteor shower, rapidly approaching his opponent.
The Sword Venerables' eyes turned cold as a cold smile appeared on his face. He slashed out with his sword that had accumulated enough energy. With a swoosh, a river of stars rushed out from the void and crossed the entire Myriad Battle Platform. It very exquisitely filled the gap of the meteor shower sword light of the first sword strike. Moreover, the two merged into one, increasing the power by several times.
Chu Mu's pupils rapidly shrank as a bright light condensed in his eyes. It was as resplendent as a cold star. He stared at one point of the river of stars and unsheathed his Desolate Sky Sword. His strength, sword origin, and sword intent poured into the sword. The power penetrated the tip of the sword and condensed into one point, landing on one point of the river of stars.
Kill!
There seemed to be a cracking sound as a point of the river of stars was destroyed by Chu Mu's sword. Chu Mu's figure was like a specter as he shuttled through the river of stars, appearing in front of his opponent and erasing him with a single sword strike.
His opponent clearly hadn't expected Chu Mu to break through his sword technique in such a manner. Just as he was about to react, he was already a beat too late. Chu Mu's sword silently appeared before his eyes, and a tearing pain came from his neck.
A slash to the throat!
"Too exquisite!"
Chu Mu's swordsmanship caused another round of exclamations.
There were a total of 625 Sword Masters participating in the fifth round of battles. These 625 Sword Masters were basically at the level of powerful Top Sword Masters, but some of them were unfathomable.
For example, Chu Mu was one of them. To this day, no one knew exactly how strong he was.
There was also a Sword Venerable in his thirties called Dong Muye, and a Sword Venerable in his forties called Wu Ping.
There were a total of 312 battles in the fifth round, and one of them had a bye. It had to be said that Chu Mu was very lucky. He had a bye and advanced to the sixth round.
In the sixth round, there were 313 Sword Venerable. Besides Chu Mu, the rest of the Sword Venerable were at the Ultimate Sword Master level.
Although there were a total of 156 battles in the sixth round, and another Sword Venerable was lucky enough to advance, luck couldn't always be with Chu Mu alone.
In the 36th battle, Chu Mu appeared on the Ten Thousand Battle Platform. His opponent was a female Ultimate Sword Venerable, known as the Absolute Ice Venerable.
The aura around the Absolute Ice Swordmaster was extremely cold. Even the air was frozen under the influence of the cold aura, forming countless fragments.
The Absolute Ice Swordmaster was as cold as her name. It was as if there was nothing in the world that could move her.
Chu Mu had seen a few of her battles before. He roughly knew that she had mastered a variant of the Ice Venerable One: the Ice Venerable One. Furthermore, she seemed to have only mastered the Ice Venerable One. Perhaps it was because she had only mastered one type of Ice Venerable One. As she continued to study it, her mastery of the Ice Venerable One had reached its limit.
She was a frightening opponent!
The Absolute Ice Swordmaster did not say anything. He pulled out his sword and streaks and streaks of ice were unleashed. They covered half of the Ten Thousand Battle Platform and the cold aura descended.
Every icicle was as thick as an arm and flashed with a clear radiance. They were like thousand-year-old ice and exuded a frightening coldness that froze everything.
This attack seemed similar to his previous opponents, but it was much more profound. It gave Chu Mu a feeling that it was difficult to dodge.
That was because between every icicle, there seemed to be a formless connection. There was a formless energy that was arranged. If Chu Mu wanted to pass through the gaps, he was bound to trigger that formless energy.
"She is indeed the Ultimate Sword Venerable. I feel like I can't dodge a single sword technique." As he thought to himself, Chu Mu slashed out with his sword and a dark golden crescent moon tore through the sky.
Moon Slashing Sword Technique!
"Chu Mu is using his sword technique."
"He is finally using his sword technique. I thought he was going to use his sword technique against his opponent."
"The Ultimate Sword Venerable is not something an elite Sword Venerable can compare to."
The Crescent Moon Slash broke through the sky and clashed with the icicles in an instant. Explosions sounded and streaks of icicles exploded. Countless icicles shot towards Chu Mu like a swarm of locusts. They covered the entire sky.
Chu Mu moved his feet and waved his sword. It seemed simple, but it was impenetrable. Not a single icicle could get close to him.
As the icicles landed, the ground of the Ten Thousand Battle Platform was covered with a layer of frost. It was as if it was turning into a world of ice and snow. The Absolute Ice Swordmaster's first sword technique was successful.
Such an environment was the most advantageous for her. She could unleash her powers to the fullest.
As she waved her sword, streaks and streaks of icy sword radiance pierced through the air. They were straight and curved, displaying the Absolute Ice Swordmaster's terrifying control over the sword radiance.
The streaks of icy sword radiance gave Chu Mu a feeling that he had nowhere to hide. The icy aura locked onto him. No matter how he tried to dodge, he would be hit.
The Flying Goose Illusory Steps was unleashed and the Ultimacy of Illusionary and Corporeal was unleashed to the extreme. Chu Mu's figure became erratic. It seemed both real and illusory. This caused the Absolute Ice Swordmaster to crease his brows. He could not differentiate between real and illusory.
72% of the Ultimacy of Illusionary and Corporeal was equivalent to 102% of the normal Ultimacy. The Flying Goose Illusory Steps was also improved by Chu Mu many times. It was already at the extreme. When he unleashed it with all his might, many Ultimate Sword Venerables could not see through it.
Although they could not see it clearly, the Absolute Ice Swordmaster had his own way of dealing with it.
"Ice Seal!"
A stern shout rang out. The voice was ice cold to the extreme, as if it wanted to freeze everything. A sword was waved and, in a split second, countless icy auras seemed to gush out from the void. A terrifying chill descended and Chu Mu felt as if his blood was about to freeze. His body was frozen stiff. His Flying Swan Illusory Steps were restricted and his speed dropped. A layer of frost pervaded his protective sword aura.
The entire environment of the Ten Thousand Battle Stage changed completely. It was as if it had turned into a world of ice and snow.
The Absolute Ice Swordmaster seemed to have fused with this world of ice and snow. His figure became erratic and appeared everywhere. This was not the Ultimacy of Space. It was a special ability that came from attaining a high level of compatibility with the surrounding environment. It was an ability that the Absolute Ice Swordmaster obtained after he mastered the Ultimacy of Ice to the extreme. It could also be considered a movement technique.
The Absolute Ice Swordmaster's mastery of his own strength and the timing of his battle had reached a high level. It was obvious that he was someone who had been through many life-and-death battles. As he unleashed his sword, his attacks were continuous and gave Chu Mu a sense of endless pressure.
For the first time, Chu Mu felt powerless. The powers of the Absolute Ice Swordmaster were too strong.
She was like a mobile cannon that specialized in long range attacks. She had grasped the essence of it and was using all her firepower to suppress Chu Mu.
"It seems like Chu Mu's defeat is inevitable."
"Yes, let's see how long he can last."
"Chu Mu specializes in close-combat while Absolute Ice specializes in long-distance attacks. The two of them are the exact opposite. From the sword technique just now, it can be seen that Chu Mu's current powers are at the level of an elite Sword Grandmaster. There is an obvious difference between him and Absolute Ice. Unless Chu Mu can get close to Absolute Ice, there's no way he can turn the situation around. "
"I think it's very difficult. Absolute Ice's long-distance attacks are too strong. She only comprehended one Ultimacy, but her mastery of this Ultimacy is much better than others. Furthermore, she also possesses a certain level of close-combat abilities. Even if Chu Mu gets close to her, he may not be her match. "
The obvious difference in their powers caused the Sword Grandmasters to not have high hopes for Chu Mu. All of them believed that Chu Mu would lose.
"At such a time, how can you turn the situation around?" Su Haosha stared at Chu Mu and thought to himself.
Chu Mu used all his strength to avoid the attacks of the Extreme Ice Swordmaster. The Extreme Ice Swordmaster's sword origin was very strong and her recovery speed was very fast. She could sustain such an attack for more than an hour, but Chu Mu did not have the confidence to last that long.
"Find a chance to get close to her." This was Chu Mu's only chance to turn the situation around.
"It seems like I can only use the Space Esoteric Meaning." After dodging a few more times, Chu Mu's hair was covered with a layer of frost. His speed was affected and decreased again. If this continued, the situation would become even more disadvantageous for him.
Since he decided, Chu Mu did not hesitate anymore. His figure flashed and he used the Inverse Space Steps. In the instant that he disappeared, the Extreme Ice Swordmaster unleashed a huge ball of frost. In the eyes of others, it was as if Chu Mu was hit. Even the Extreme Ice Swordmaster had such a feeling.
In the next moment, a sense of danger surged from the bottom of his heart. The Extreme Ice Swordmaster's expression changed slightly. A ball of frost exploded from his body and spread in all directions. The strong force wanted to push Chu Mu away. This was the Extreme Ice Swordmaster's way of dealing with close-combat opponents. It was very effective.
However, as the frost passed by, Chu Mu's figure disappeared mysteriously. When the Extreme Ice Swordmaster realized that something was wrong, she saw a cold radiance from the corner of her eyes. It was like a white steed flashing across a crevice. It cut through her armor of frost and became the last thing she saw.
Two Inverse Space Steps and a killer sword technique!
Chu Mu completed an almost impossible counterattack. He turned the situation around and killed the Extreme Ice Swordmaster.
The head of the Extreme Ice Swordmaster flew high into the sky. A look of shock appeared on his face. His expression was very weird. (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.)
