Situ Xiu and Lie Shanhu fought to a draw, while the other Immemorial Swordsman, Yang Lie, fought to a draw with Wan Chengxian. Neither of them used the power of Sword Principle.
This result was very surprising because Situ Xiu and Yang Lie were both less than thirty years old, while Lie Shanhu was nearly forty years old and Wan Chengxian was in his forties.
In the room, Chu Mu closed his eyes and was deep in thought.
After the draw, the two Immemorial Swordsmen did not provoke him anymore. Everything quieted down, but many people were not calm.
According to Situ Xiu and Yang Lie, they were just ordinary disciples in the so-called Sky Edge Sword Palace. Ordinary disciples in their twenties could fight to a draw with two of the top ten Sword Venerables of the Ancient Sword Continent. This was a huge blow to the Sword Venerables of the Ancient Sword Continent.
"Immemorial Swordsman …" Chu Mu clenched his fist.
Even though he was much stronger now than he was at the Unparalleled Sword Venerable Assembly, he was not confident that he could fight against Situ Xiu or Yang Lie.
"Their fighting style …" Recalling Situ Xiu and Yang Lie's fighting style, Chu Mu's closed eyes suddenly opened. There was a flash of light that left a clear trace in the air.
Chu Mu was very familiar with the fighting style of the Ancient Sword Continent's swordsmen, but the fighting style of Situ Xiu and Yang Lie was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
It was familiar because the fighting style of the Ancient Sword Continent's swordsmen was mixed in. It was unfamiliar because this was the first time he had seen swordsmen use such a fighting style.
Although the swordsmen of the Ancient Sword Continent also paid attention to the control of power, they still mainly pursued tyrannical power. Every sword technique strived to increase the power, and it would be best if it was powerful enough to kill a strong enemy in one strike.
There was no doubt that the more powerful the sword technique, the more energy it would consume. The time it took to accumulate energy would also be quite long. After using it, the temporary burden on the body would also be increased. There was no way to use it continuously.
However, the swordsmen of the Ancient Sword Continent seemed to be used to such a fighting style. They constantly pursued it and walked further and further on this path.
No one had ever questioned it. Chu Mu also did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. After all, the sword was a killing weapon. Its existence was to kill strong enemies.
But now, Chu Mu's thoughts had been impacted and changed.
Situ Xiu and Yang Lie's fighting style was somewhat similar to the swordsmen of Ancient Sword Continent, and also somewhat similar to swordmasters.
Their swords didn't seem to be very powerful, but they were very suitable. Their timing was very accurate, and every sword seemed to have been carefully calculated.
Situ Xiu's sword sliced through Lie Shanhu's ferocious tiger attack. She then turned her sword in midair and slashed down. Her power was contained within the sword, and a portion of it affected the air outside, causing the air to oppress Lie Shanhu.
On the other hand, Lie Shanhu's sword was extremely tyrannical. It was wide open, and its power was surging. It seemed to be even stronger than Situ Xiu's, but when they clashed, they were evenly matched.
In comparison, Situ Xiu's fighting style was more skillful.
Although Chu Mu's strength was not as good as his opponent's, his eyesight was better than his opponent's. He could tell with a single glance that Situ Xiu was not as good as Lie Shanhu in terms of absolute strength. However, they ended up in a draw. What did that mean? It meant that Situ Xiu's fighting style was better.
"It seems like the swordsmen of the Ancient Sword Continent have all walked on the wrong path." He sighed softly.
Thinking about it, it made sense. The Ancient World was the center, and the Ancient Sword Continent was just a fragment of the Ancient World. After a long time, many of the essences had been lost, and they had gradually deviated from the correct path.
"Controlling the power, releasing and releasing it at will. Gathering the power at the moment of the attack will reduce the consumption of energy, and also make it harder for the opponent to defend …" Chu Mu's mind kept replaying the scene of Situ Xiu and Yang Lie attacking. His eyes became brighter and brighter, and he gradually understood.
"Situ Xiu and Yang Lie are not perfect. There are still traces to be found."
At that moment, Chu Mu attacked with his sword. It was a simple attack, and there was no energy fluctuation. Chu Mu did not pour any sword energy, sword intent, or profound power into it.
However, the speed of the sword stabbing out was extremely fast and soundless. At the last moment, the sword yuan, the sword intent, and the profound power all poured into the sword. The power reached the tip of the sword, and the space around the tip of the sword turned turbid before slowly dissipating.
"The direction is correct, but it's not perfect." Chu Mu sighed and said to himself.
However, as long as the direction was correct, the path became clear.
"Perhaps the Ancient World has a detailed description and guidance about this battle method."
His desire to enter the Ancient World became more and more urgent.
Although it was urgent, Chu Mu knew that he still needed twenty days. Moreover, even if he entered the Ancient World, he might not be able to obtain any detailed information. Therefore, he could only comprehend it himself.
He unceasingly recalled the fight between Situ Xiu and Yang Lie. He didn't miss a single detail of their unsheathing of swords, attacking, retracting, and so on. Moreover, the replay in Chu Mu's mind became clearer and clearer, becoming extremely detailed.
Without a doubt, whether it was Situ Xiu or Yang Lie, they had only grasped the surface of this battle method. It could be said that they had not reached the true beginner level. This was Chu Mu's judgment after watching it many times.
No matter if it was Situ Xiu or Yang Lie, when they attacked, they would inject their power into their swords. This was because they did not have a profound grasp of their swords. Otherwise, they would be able to inject their power into their swords at the instant their swords touched their targets and explode.
Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, another five days had passed. Chu Mu had been staying in his room all this time.
The other swordsmen were also quietly cultivating in their rooms. Although the wine and food on the Immemorial Divine Ship were indeed delicious, it was not worth mentioning when compared to strength.
When the Sword Sovereigns of the Ancient Sword Continent saw the battle between Situ Xiu and Yang Lie, alarm bells rang in their hearts. They were only two youngsters from the Immemorial World. In terms of age, they were younger than them. However, they had such terrifying strength. Almost every sword attack was born to kill the target. It was simple, direct, and fierce.
There were only twenty days left before they entered the Immemorial World. At that time, they did not know what kind of encounter they would encounter. In any case, they could only increase their strength as much as possible. Only by becoming stronger could they deal with the upcoming unknown.
… …
"I heard that these ten thousand swordsmen are the strongest ten thousand Sword Sovereigns in the Ancient Sword Continent. How disappointing." Situ Xiu smiled in a room.
"Among the ten thousand, only the so-called top ten Sword Sovereigns are worth looking at. However, that is all. They have cultivation base, sword intent, and profound, but they do not know how to control their power. They will always be at the Lesser Attainment Realm. It will be difficult for them to achieve anything." Yang Lie smiled coldly.
"If I reach the Immemorial Realm, I can definitely defeat that Lie Shanhu." Situ Xiu said.
"Immemorial Realm is good, but it is easier said than done." Yang Lie sighed. He had put in a lot of effort to pursue the path of controlling his power. However, his progress was minimal. He did not know when he would reach the Immemorial Realm.
"Don't be sad. I have a feeling that I will definitely reach the Immemorial Realm within five years." Situ Xiu smiled. A trace of disdain flashed in her eyes. "As for those country bumpkins, even if you give them ten, twenty, thirty years, they might not be able to reach the Immemorial Realm. These people think that entering our Immemorial World is an opportunity to soar. They do not know that it is a blow, a blow that is enough to make them sink."
"That is not necessarily true. Who knows, there might be a few people who can stand out among them." Yang Lie smiled.
"Even if they stand out, they will still be cannon fodder." Situ Xiu sneered.
… …
Half a month passed. Chu Mu, who had been sitting still, slowly opened his eyes. They weren't sharp and oppressive, nor were they radiant. Instead, they were crystal clear, like clear spring water that could reflect everything. It was as if there were various mysteries evolving within them.
Chu Mu did not move. The eight Desolate Sky Swords suddenly came out of their sheaths and stabbed to the side.
This stab was like an aurora. It was silent and extremely fast. In an instant, sword energy surged, sword intent exploded, and profound power poured in. The three forces merged into one and the force reached the tip of the sword.
A tiny blind spot appeared in the space where the tip of the sword came in contact with. That blind spot only existed for a breath of time before disappearing.
No one knew how powerful Chu Mu's stab was. What was that blind spot?
If Situ Xiu and Yang Lie saw Chu Mu's stab, they would definitely be shocked. This was a realm that they could not reach.
Sheathing his sword, he stabbed again. This time, it had the Mountain Quake Force. However, the blind spot where the tip of the sword came in contact with was shattered.
"The Mountain Quake Force could not be perfectly integrated …" Chu Mu slowly sheathed his sword. He frowned slightly as he pondered.
According to his usual practice, the Mountain Quake Force would be integrated with the Sword Intent, Sword Intent, and Profound Power. However, this time, it failed.
Chu Mu was very clear about this failure. It was not because he was not proficient enough. It was a failure where different domains could not be integrated.
Just like how life and death could not appear in a person at the same time, the Mountain Quake Force could not coexist with other forces.
Why was that?
Chu Mu was confused. He couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out. More and more doubts appeared in his mind. One thought after another crazily rushed into his brain. Gradually, Chu Mu felt overloaded. He felt as if his brain was being stuffed with stone after stone.
Chu Mu quickly stopped thinking. He took a deep breath and temporarily dispelled all the doubts in his mind. Otherwise, his brain would not be able to bear it. It was very likely that it would cause his spiritual world to collapse and his soul to be damaged.
A strong desire for knowledge burst out from Chu Mu's heart. (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.)
