Late at night, the sky was filled with stars. Starlight flickered as if countless eyes were blinking. It was indescribably deep and boundless.
At the foot of the Sword Observation Peak, Chu Mu was fully focused. He maintained a high level of mental power output. He sensed the Tianfu Star's power in the air and drew it into his spiritual world to refine his mental power.
Sensing the Heavenly Palace Star's power took Chu Mu two full nights. Only now did he begin to guide a sliver of it into his mental world to refine it. However, the Heavenly Palace Star was truly too far from the ground. The power of the star was extremely weak, and he could only guide a sliver of it. The refining effect was rather weak.
Chu Mu knew that this would be a long process unless he could clearly sense the power of the stars in a special place.
At dawn, the power of the stars became even weaker. Chu Mu ended his cultivation and began to use the Mind Tempering Technique to recover his exhausted mental power.
Because he hadn't even learned the basics of the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Technique, he naturally couldn't use it to recover.
The fact that the Southern Dipper Mind Tempering Technique was so difficult to cultivate also meant that it had boundless potential.
Today was the day of Qin Shanhe's battle with Sikong Zhan. The time was set for the afternoon.
But it was only ten in the morning, and a large number of swordsmen had already gathered around the first arena. Moreover, even more swordsmen were rushing over from afar. It was very lively. They were afraid that they wouldn't be able to get a good spot to watch the battle if they were too slow.
At noon, the first arena was packed with people. It was so crowded that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Circle after circle of people surrounded the arena. At a glance, it was very shocking.
Time slowly passed. It felt like every second was like a year.
Finally, the sound of wind breaking rang out at the same time. Two figures rushed over from different directions. In the blink of an eye, they flew over the crowd.
One of them had a perfect height, and his figure was just right. He was like an arrow that had left the bow. His body emitted an aura that made all things in the world submit. He was like an emperor that had descended. His starry robe fluttered in the wind, and specks of starlight filled the air. It was very dazzling.
The other figure was tall and sturdy. As soon as he appeared, he gave off a heavy pressure. He was like a flying mountain or a surging river, surging violently.
Two completely different figures with completely different auras collided in the air above the Sword Battle Arena, causing explosive sounds to ring out.
Waves of invisible waves of air surged and charged in all directions, causing the hair of the surrounding swordsmen to flutter. Their robes fluttered, and their eyes unconsciously narrowed.
Sikong Zhan was the first to land on the Sword Battle Arena. It was as if he had leaped down from the stars. His figure was straight, and it was as if he was pointing at the stars. Qin Shanhe landed after him. With a boom, it was as if a mountain had landed heavily on the Sword Battle Arena, causing it to shake instantly.
"Sikong Zhan, I've experienced life and death battles outside the Sword Palace for over a year for the sake of fighting you today." Qin Shanhe pulled out his giant sword. The wind howled as sword pressure wreaked havoc, pressing towards Sikong Zhan. At the same time, he roared loudly, sounding like a great bell being rung.
"A year ago, you were no match for me. Now, you are still no match for me." Sikong Zhan's posture was calm. His hands were behind his back, and the eyes on his indifferent face were as deep as the stars. He spoke neither slowly nor quickly, completely disregarding Qin Shanhe.
"Whether I'm your match or not, you will know soon enough." Qin Shanhe was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed loudly. His laughter was filled with power, causing the air to vibrate. Immediately after, Qin Shanhe's power exploded. His tall and muscular body broke through the air and shot towards Sikong Zhan like a cannonball. With his giant sword as the vanguard, he suddenly stabbed forward, piercing through the air before him.
This sword was powerful and heavy. The terrifying sword pressure was the first to arrive. The swordsmen watching behind Sikong Zhan all felt that it was difficult to breathe.
It was as if the mountains and seas were overturning, as if the mountains and rivers were crushing.
Facing this powerful sword, Sikong Zhan did not move at all.
Chu Mu's eyes lit up as he watched from below. He seemed to be deep in thought.
After coming to the Ancient World, there were many things that were beyond his expectations. For example, the control and cultivation of the Ancient World's power.
Here, the swordsmen he saw fighting did not use any sword skills or Sword Dao. Instead, they used their own Sword Dao and various types of power to transform and integrate into their control of power. If they had reached the Advanced Realm, they would even use it at the right time, exploding with power to form a fatal blow.
It could be said that although it was also a battle, the battle between swordsmen of the Ancient World looked more simple and concise than the battle between swordsmen of the Ancient Sword Continent. However, the application of changes was more abundant.
Qin Shanhe's battle opened Chu Mu's eyes once again. It was different from the battle style of ordinary swordsmen of the Ancient World. There was something unique integrated into it. Chu Mu guessed that it might be the essence of the Sword Dao that Qin Shanhe had inherited, which he had extracted and integrated into it.
The giant sword instantly approached Sikong Zhan. Only then did Sikong Zhan move. He did not use his sword, but only pointed out a finger. Starlight condensed and bloomed at the tip of his finger.
With a ding, Sikong Zhan's body floated back. The giant sword trembled and moved to the side. Sikong Zhan flicked his finger lightly. Strands of sword light shot out like shooting stars. Every strand shot towards the weakest part of Qin Shanhe's body. It showed Sikong Zhan's amazing ability to find flaws.
Qin Shanhe's expression changed slightly. The giant sword danced, and the sword wind roared. It was like the impact of a long river, shattering all the starlight.
Then, Qin Shanhe's left hand shook, and a strange short sword appeared. It was instantly connected to the tip of the giant sword, turning the giant sword into a strange weapon with one long and one short sword.
"Sikong Zhan, I've practiced this move for more than a year. Now, I'll let you have a taste of its power." As he spoke, Qin Shanhe rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, he approached Sikong Zhan in an unbelievable way and attacked with the giant sword.
Qin Shanhe's swordsmanship immediately underwent a great change. It became unpredictable, which made Chu Mu's eyes light up.
The giant sword was huge and heavy. It walked the path of strength and violence, while the short sword that was connected to it walked the path of lightness and strangeness. The combination of strength and violence and lightness and strangeness were displayed in the same sword weapon.
Especially Qin Shanhe's swordsmanship. It was different from holding the sword with both hands. Instead, he combined the two swords, one long, one short, one thick, and one thin, so that he could attack from both sides.
In the blink of an eye, it became a lightness and strangeness sword. Qin Shanhe's footwork also underwent a great change. It was as if he was walking between mountains and rivers. He became far away in an instant, then close in the next instant.
This sudden change in distance caused the surrounding swordsmen to feel a sense of visual confusion, causing their eyes to ache. Sikong Zhan's eyes slightly narrowed, and his pupils seemed to have transformed into two stars as he suddenly drew his sword.
His sword was covered with starlight. When he attacked, it was as if there were cold stars flowing in the sky.
A unique profound aura suddenly spread out.
"Star Profound …" Chu Mu was shocked.
Star Profound was also one of the basic profound.
To put it simply, other than the Variant Profound, all other Profound belonged to the category of Fundamental Profound. Even the Supreme Profound of Space was no exception.
Although they were all Basic Profound Meanings, there were still differences between them. If Profound Meanings were to be divided into three levels, then Time Profound and Space Profound would be ranked at the first level, Star Profound would be ranked at the second level, and Five Elements and Eight Phases Profound would be ranked at the third level.
The mutated Profound was only purer than the basic Profound. However, after the Profound reached perfection and went through refinement, the advantage would gradually disappear. Therefore, the mutated Profound was only useful before it reached perfection. Its potential after that was not as great as the basic Profound.
Pure Star Ultimacy ripples spread out. Obviously, he had reached the Third Revolution.
In terms of power, the third revolution of Star Profound was definitely close to the fourth revolution of Five Elements and Eight Aspects.
Sikong Zhan's fighting style seemed to be more profound than Qin Shanhe's. Chu Mu's eyes lit up again.
As he swung his sword, starlight flowed. The starlight spun under a strange power. It was like a whirlpool that attacked and strangled. It immediately restrained Qin Shanhe's unique sword skill.
"Sword Technique Domain Level Four!" Chu Mu was shocked again.
There was a huge difference in strength between Sikong Zhan without his sword and Sikong Zhan with his sword.
With a shout, Qin Shanhe unleashed the power of the third level of Sword Technique Domain to the extreme. The power exploded and the Advanced Realm sword instantly knocked Sikong Zhan's sword away. The giant sword turned around and the short sword stabbed towards Sikong Zhan's chest from a strange blind spot.
With a sword in hand, the stars in the sky seemed to listen to my command. A ray of starlight appeared in front of the short sword as if it had a life of its own and blocked the attack.
As the sword slashed down, the starlight parted automatically. It was as if the stars in the sky had been cut apart. Qin Shanhe had no choice but to block with his sword.
The sword looked light, but Qin Shanhe could not help but take three steps back. Sikong Zhan seemed to be pushed by the starlight. He stabbed again and Qin Shanhe had no choice but to block again.
Sikong Zhan's sword skill was neither fast nor slow. It was calm and unhurried. It was as if he was taking a stroll in the garden or admiring the stars in the backyard. There was an indescribable charm and rhythm. Qin Shanhe lost the chance to attack and could only block again and again. His unique sword skill could no longer be used.
There were countless specks of starlight around Sikong Zhan. It was like a dream and made people feel unreal. Every speck of starlight was either extremely hot or extremely cold.
Qin Shanhe spread his legs and squatted down slightly. He held the giant sword in front of him with both hands and displayed a purely defensive posture, blocking Sikong Zhan's attacks again and again.
Sikong Zhan's sword did not look fast at all, but the connection between each strike was almost perfect. He controlled the rhythm of the attack and did not give Qin Shanhe any chance to counterattack.
In the eyes of the swordsmen, Qin Shanhe was only blocking Sikong Zhan's attacks again and again. Chu Mu could see that Qin Shanhe was having a hard time blocking, while Sikong Zhan seemed to be doing it with ease.
"Don't you have any other moves?" A long sigh came from Sikong Zhan's mouth, but Qin Shanhe was unable to reply. Sikong Zhan swung his sword. This sword was silent, but the moment it touched Qin Shanhe's giant sword, its power suddenly exploded like a star exploding.
With a boom, Qin Shanhe's body flew backwards like a cannonball. Blood sprayed into the air as the giant sword left his hand and flew high into the sky … If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
