Three days was actually very short. It passed in the blink of an eye.
But at this moment, many swordsmen felt that three days was very long. It was as if it had been extended by a hundred or a thousand times. It made them feel like a year.
This was because these swordsmen all hoped that three days would pass quickly so that they could watch the battle between Qin Shanhe and Sikong Zhan.
The second official disciple challenging the first official disciple!
A battle between the strongest official disciples!
No matter which title it was, it was very attractive.
For three days, Qin Shanhe did not leave his house. He stayed in his Sword Tower and constantly adjusted his condition.
Three days passed quickly. No matter how hard he tried, he could not improve his strength. Since that was the case, it was not good for him to adjust his condition. He adjusted his essence, energy, and spirit to the peak so that he could use all his strength in the battle with Sikong Zhan. Even if he lost in the end, he would have no regrets.
In comparison, although Chu Mu also wanted to watch the battle between Qin Shanhe and Sikong Zhan, he was not in a hurry. His own strength was the most important.
Chu Mu, who had three thousand five hundred Sky Edge Coins, went to the Sword Hoard area again.
He planned to choose another technique related to the mind. His Mind Tempering Technique had already been completed. Now, it only had the effect of recovering the mind.
Moreover, a stronger mind would directly improve the refinement of sword intent and esoteric meaning, making it more efficient.
When he entered the Sword Hoard area for the third time, a strong pressure surrounded his body. It was obvious that the pressure was aimed at the mind.
This kind of pressure was completely negligible to Chu Mu.
After entering the first level of the Sword Hoard, Chu Mu did not stop and went straight to the second level.
The pressure on the second level was much stronger than the first, but Chu Mu could still resist it easily. As long as he wanted to, he could stay in the second level for as long as he wanted.
His mental remembrance spread out and transformed into strands of light that touched the surrounding light orbs. Chu Mu began to search.
Different techniques emitted different auras. There seemed to be countless light balls in the second level of the Sword Hoard. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack to find a suitable technique.
Fortunately, Chu Mu could multitask and greatly increased the efficiency of his search.
Every time his spiritual consciousness came into contact with a light ball, the corresponding Chu Mu would know what kind of cultivation method was in the light ball.
As he searched, Chu Mu grasped some patterns.
For example, the auras emitted by cultivation methods that were also related to psychic power were often more similar. As a result, Chu Mu's search efficiency increased again.
There were relatively few techniques related to spiritual will. Time passed slowly, and soon, fifteen minutes had passed.
Chu Mu didn't find a satisfactory cultivation technique.
"Could it be that I have to go to the third floor?"
After searching for a while, Chu Mu decided to go to the third level of the Sword Hoard.
The pressure on the third level of the Sword Hoard was even greater, and Chu Mu began to feel uncomfortable, but he was still able to withstand it.
While circulating Mind Tempering Technique to recover the mental strength he had expended, he also spread out his mental strength to sense the surroundings.
As time passed, more and more of his mental strength was consumed, and the pressure he felt increased. The recovery speed of Mind Tempering Skill was far from being able to keep up with the consumption rate caused by the pressure of the third level of the Sword Hoard.
Persevere, persevere!
Finally, Chu Mu sensed a light ball. The aura made him happy. When his mind touched it, a simple message was transmitted to his mind. Chu Mu immediately made a decision to choose this cultivation method.
That piece of information also included the amount of Sky Edge Coins needed to be paid for this cultivation technique.
Three thousand!
Without hesitation, Chu Mu took out three thousand Sky Edge Coins. In the next moment, the three thousand Sky Edge Coins disappeared without a trace, and the light ball touched Chu Mu's forehead. A stream of information flowed from the light ball into Chu Mu's mind like water.
The Sky Edge Sword Palace had a clear rule that any cultivation method obtained from the Sword Hoard could only be cultivated by oneself and could not be passed on to other swordsmen. This practice was to encourage swordsmen to earn their own living.
If you want a cultivation method, you have to pay Sky Edge Coins. If you don't have enough Sky Edge Coins? You have to find a way to earn them. Everything depends on your own ability.
A direct method like this also had corresponding protective measures. For example, the total number of people who exchanged for the cultivation method, and so on. This was equivalent to a record that could be checked directly.
Of course, if a swordsman had the ability to modify the cultivation method obtained from the Sword Hoard and make it his own, then he could pass it on to anyone he wanted. The Sword Palace would not interfere. He could also contribute the modified cultivation method to the Sword Palace and receive a corresponding reward.
After receiving the cultivation method, the pressure of the third level of the Sword Hoard was too great. Chu Mu quickly left. When he walked out of the Sword Hoard, he immediately let out a sigh of relief and quickly returned to the Sword Hoard.
Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture!
This was the cultivation method that cost three thousand Sky Edge Coins. Like Mind Tempering Skill, it was also a cultivation method that was directly related to mental strength.
However, Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture was two levels higher than Mind Tempering Skill.
Mind Tempering Skill was only the foundation. It purely refined the mental strength and increased the strength. Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture could not only refine the mental strength and increase the strength of the mental strength, but also develop the potential of the mental strength and increase the amount of mental strength.
Such a cultivation method was far superior to Mind Tempering Skill. Naturally, it was more complex and mysterious than Mind Tempering Skill.
After Chu Mu returned to the Sword Hoard, he walked into his bedroom and locked it. He sat cross-legged on the bed and began to carefully read and comprehend the information in his mind. First, he read it as a whole to have a clear and overall understanding of Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture.
Mind Tempering Skill operated the mental strength in the spiritual world to refine. It was slow and the effect was weak. Even so, it could double the strength of Chu Mu's unrefined mental strength.
Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture was different. It used external forces to refine the mental strength.
In the ancient world, there were hundreds of millions of stars. Some of these stars were close to each other, and some were very far away. The stars that were close to each other had a slight connection with each other, forming different patterns. Therefore, they were named.
For example, the Seven Stars Sword Formation originated from the Big Dipper, and the Southern Dipper was the same as the Big Dipper.
The Big Dipper was for death, and the Southern Dipper was for life.
The Southern Dipper's six stars were the Tianfu Star, the Tianliang Star, the Tianji Star, the Tiantong Star, the Tianxiang Star, and the Seven Killing Star.
The cultivation of Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture was to guide the power of the stars of the Southern Dipper's six stars to refine the mental strength.
The Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture was divided into a total of six chapters. It could be divided into six stages, which were six levels, according to the Southern Dipper's six stars.
The scripture mentioned that the symbol of cultivating the Southern Dipper Mind Refining Scripture was to condense six stars in one's spiritual world. These six stars were the aggregation of one's spiritual will, and they were opposite to the six stars of the Southern Dipper in the Immemorial Star System.
After reading it as a whole, Chu Mu began to understand it word by word. This was the process of sharpening the knife. Only when the knife was sharpened enough and fast enough could it cut firewood well and be more efficient.
Even with Chu Mu's powerful comprehension, it took him an entire day to fully comprehend the Heavenly Treasury Chapter of the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture.
The cultivation of Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture was done one chapter at a time. Therefore, once Chu Mu fully comprehended the Heavenly Treasury Chapter, he began to cultivate it.
The best time to cultivate Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture was at night. This was because the power of the Ancient Star System was more obvious and clearer at night, and it was easier to sense.
However, the Sword Tower had roofs and seals, which greatly weakened a swordsman's ability to sense the power of the Ancient Star System. Therefore, Chu Mu once again went to Sword Observation Peak.
He randomly chose a relatively remote location. His goal was to go to the wilderness and obtain a better cultivation environment without any roofs or seals.
After thinking about it, only a place like Sword Observation Peak was suitable in the Sky Edge Sword Palace. It was also not easy to be disturbed.
Taking out a praying mat, Chu Mu sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes in contemplation. The various scriptures of the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture's Heavenly Treasury Chapter once again flowed through his mind. Every word was a gem, and all kinds of mysteries were revealed.
After comprehending it once, Chu Mu began to cultivate.
Chapter one of the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture — Heavenly Treasury Chapter!
All distracting thoughts were eliminated, and his spiritual intent was fully concentrated. It condensed into a wave that spread out from the top of his head to carefully sense the power of the stars that permeated the air.
The cultivation of the Tianfu Stars chapter naturally required one to sense the power of the Tianfu Stars. Then, one had to use one's consciousness to guide the power of the Tianfu Stars into one's spiritual world and temper one's consciousness.
Often, swordsmen who cultivated the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture for the first time would be stuck at this stage for a very long time. This was because the Ancient Star System was very, very far away from the surface of the Ancient Star System. Even though the power of the stars was incomparably strong, it would constantly weaken after such a long distance.
Swordsmen with ordinary spiritual intent couldn't cultivate a cultivation method like the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Scripture at all because their spiritual intent was too weak. They simply couldn't sense the faint power of the stars in the air.
Even with Chu Mu's tyrannical spiritual intent, he couldn't sense it for the time being.
Very quickly, fifteen minutes passed. Chu Mu still didn't sense any fluctuations of the power of the stars in the Heavenly Treasury. However, he wasn't anxious at all. His expression didn't change, and he was as cold as water. He closed his eyes and continued to extend his spiritual intent into the sky.
Sensing for the first time was the most difficult. Many people knew this, including Chu Mu himself.
The more impatient one was, the harder it would be to sense it. Chu Mu knew this very well. Thus, he didn't panic and was very calm. Since it was difficult to sense the fluctuations of the stars at such a low altitude, then he would extend his spiritual intent into the sky and carefully sense it.
The higher he went, the denser the power of the stars in the air.
Chu Mu's spiritual intent was very powerful, far surpassing the average swordsman's. Its purity was also very high. Although it could only cover a range of a hundred meters, when condensed into a single strand, it could be ten times stronger.
In other words, when Chu Mu's spiritual intent was condensed into a strand, it could extend to a range of a thousand meters.
Very quickly, Chu Mu's spiritual intent spread to the extreme. He began to sense the power of the stars in the Heavenly Treasury at a thousand meters in the air. (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.)
