Qin Shanhe passed the Sword Venerable test and was given the title of Mountain River Sword Venerable. He bid farewell to Chu Mu and said that he would wait for Chu Mu among the elite disciples before leaving the official disciple status.
Time flew by and something else happened. Zong Qingtian, Jue Wudao, Yan Jiuyou, and Gu Jianghe all left the status of odd job disciple and passed the test to become official disciples of the Sky Edge Sword Palace.
Chu Mu only smiled when he learned of this.
On the Ancient Sword Continent, these four were without a doubt the pride of the heavens. Even in the Immemorial World, their talent and potential were much better than ordinary swordsmen.
After passing the odd job disciple stage, this kind of training made their minds more stable, which was more beneficial for their future.
After becoming an official disciple and enjoying the cultivation resources of an official disciple, Chu Mu believed that they would definitely rise. Their speed might not be comparable to his, but they would definitely surpass many swordsmen.
True geniuses could rise again no matter what kind of environment they were in, even if they had to go through a downturn.
… …
Three more days.
The Tearing Profound had finally reached the fourth revolution.
Chu Mu's essence, energy, and soul rose to the peak. A terrifying sharpness was emitted without restraint. The air within a thirty meter radius was completely filled with it. All the dust particles were suspended in the air, creating a dusky haze.
Chu Mu's eyes flashed.
He closed his eyes. When he opened them again, they were clear. The sharpness that filled a hundred feet had disappeared. The dust particles fell and settled.
"It's time to challenge the last stage of the Puppet Sword Formation." Sighing softly, Chu Mu took a step forward and turned into an afterimage. He left the Sword Tower and headed for the Puppet Sword Formation area.
Chu Mu's appearance attracted the attention of countless swordsmen. Among the official disciples of the Sky Edge Sword Palace, Chu Mu was the leader.
Zong Qingtian, Jue Wudao, Yan Jiuyou, Gu Jianghe, and the others all rushed to the Puppet Sword Formation area.
Half a year ago, they became odd jobs and Chu Mu became an official disciple. Half a year had passed and Chu Mu had become the number one official disciple, while they had just become official disciples. It seemed that the gap between them and Chu Mu was getting bigger and bigger.
As soon as Chu Mu entered the Puppet Sword Array area, all the swordsmen around the Puppet Sword Array were attracted to him.
After entering one of the puppet sword arrays, Chu Mu began to challenge the sword array.
Just like last time, the strength of his spiritual power did not increase. Chu Mu did not need to comprehend the sword formations in front of him. With the help of his sword finger, he continuously passed through the sword formations. One level after another, in less than ten breaths of time, Chu Mu had reached the seventh level.
At this point, it was time for Chu Mu to treat this seriously. He unsheathed the Eight Sided Desolation Swords and spent some time to easily pass the Eightfold Sword Formation of the seventh level.
The eighth stage of the Puppet Sword Formation: Nine Transformations Sword Formation!
Last time, Chu Mu could only withstand the pressure of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation. One revolution after another was like a millstone crushing him. He had no chance to comprehend the mysteries of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation. But now, his strength had increased several times. He could completely withstand the pressure of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation and comprehend the mysteries of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation.
The pressure of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation was very strange. One revolution after another was like a millstone, constantly crushing over. The pressure on the spiritual level and the physical level were both present. Under the double pressure, one's resistance would be constantly worn down until it was unbearable.
At this time, Chu Mu was resisting the crushing pressure of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation with absolute strength. No matter how the Nine Transformations Sword Formation crushed him, it was unable to make Chu Mu feel strained. This was because Chu Mu's strength had increased several times.
Under the pressure of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation, the Nine Transformations Sword Puppet unsheathed its sword and launched an endless stream of attacks on Chu Mu. These attacks were sometimes like a continuous drizzle, sometimes like a gentle breeze, sometimes like a raging thunderbolt, and sometimes like a heavy earth crushing down …
Chu Mu released his spiritual consciousness and performed the Flying Swan Illusory Steps. He constantly dodged the attacks of the Nine Transformations Sword Puppet. At the same time, he constantly felt the mysteries of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation. He memorized it and slowly comprehended it.
Although the Nine Transformations Sword Formation was also one of the basic sword formations, compared to the previous sword formations, it was more mysterious and exquisite. It was also more difficult to comprehend.
"Chu Mu has become stronger."
"Rumor has it that his sword intent has reached the fourth revolution. It seems like even his profound has reached the fourth revolution."
"Fourth revolution sword intent, fourth revolution profound … Terrifying, what a terrifying guy."
"With this kind of strength, even if he becomes an elite disciple, he will be able to stand out very quickly."
"I can already confirm that once Chu Mu becomes an elite disciple, he will definitely be invited by the three great battle teams."
"The three great battle teams …" Many swordsmen revealed a yearning expression. Joining a strong battle team was much better than joining a weak battle team.
"That might not be the case." In the crowd, a swordsman sneered and said. It was Jin Mu Lei, who had been defeated by Chu Mu.
Within the Nine Transformations Sword Formation, Chu Mu had already comprehended the mysteries of the Nine Transformations Sword Formation and reached the limit as of now.
"It's time to break the formation." Taking a deep breath, Chu Mu did not dodge this time. He unsheathed the Desolation Sky Sword and the sword seemed to disappear into the void. Then, it suddenly appeared at the neck of a Sword Puppet. With a burst of power, the Profound Realm sword beheaded the puppet.
The Nine Transformations Sword Formation became incomplete and flaws appeared. Under Chu Mu's sword, the Nine Transformations Sword Puppet was quickly defeated by Chu Mu. The Nine Transformations Sword Formation was broken.
"He passed it."
"Chu Mu is going to pass the last stage of the Puppet Sword Formation."
"I wonder what kind of power the last stage of the Puppet Sword Formation has?"
Jin Mu Lei's face was gloomy. Ever since he was defeated by Chu Mu, he had been holding a grudge against Chu Mu. Therefore, he could not bear to see Chu Mu doing well.
The ninth stage of the Puppet Sword Formation was also the last stage: Ten Directions Sword Formation!
There were ten Sword Puppets in the Ten Directions Sword Formation. They stood in a circle and surrounded Chu Mu.
In a split second, the Ten Directions Sword Formation was activated. A wave of pressure spread out, making Chu Mu feel like he was in a small world with nowhere to hide.
The pressure attacked his spiritual world and his body. There was even a trace of unstoppable pressure that seeped into his body and attacked his internal organs. Chu Mu's qi and blood showed signs of surging.
Fortunately, Chu Mu had cultivated the Sky-Desolate Sword Body. He did not let go of any part of his body and had completely refined it. His internal organs were more than ten times stronger than ordinary Origin Realm swordsmen. Therefore, he was able to withstand the pressure.
However, the pressure was unimaginably huge. Chu Mu only felt his body sink as if he was about to sink.
The Intent Star in his spiritual world was constantly flickering. It spread out faint starlight ripples and shattered the waves of pressure.
The Ten Directions Sword Puppet was activated. When the sword was unsheathed, there was nowhere to hide. Chu Mu felt like he could not dodge and could only attack with his sword.
When the sword was unsheathed, Chu Mu immediately felt that it was difficult. The terrifying pressure turned into chains that wrapped around his sword and arm. Chu Mu had no choice but to erupt with even more power to move normally. Without a doubt, this would consume even more power.
Chu Mu did not dare to waste any time. The pressure of the Ten Directions Sword Formation was too terrifying. He did not know how long he could last if he continued to stay here. Therefore, he could only erupt with all his power and break the formation immediately. The longer he delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.
With a ripping sound, Chu Mu's back was cut open by the sword. Blood spurted out and the wound was so deep that his bones could be seen. Intense pain spread throughout his body, causing the corner of Chu Mu's eyes to twitch slightly.
If he had not dodged fast enough, half of his body would have been cut open. Breaking through the Sword Puppet Formation was also life-threatening.
Not daring to hold back, Chu Mu took out a top-notch Royal Grade sword in his left hand. With a flick of his wrist, he controlled his power and unleashed his Profound Realm sword.
In the blink of an eye, two swords slashed at the same Sword Puppet. One sword broke the Sword Puppet's sword, while the other split the Sword Puppet's head.
The Ten Directions Sword Puppet was stronger than the other Sword Puppets. For example, Chu Mu only needed one sword to defeat the Nine Transformation Sword Puppet, but the Ten Directions Sword Puppet needed two swords.
After eight consecutive sword strikes, four Sword Puppets were defeated by Chu Mu.
However, the Ten Directions Sword Formation did not seem to be broken. The remaining six Sword Puppets changed their positions and formed a Hexagonal Sword Formation that was even stronger than the previous one.
From this point, one could see the difference between the Ten Directions Sword Formation and the previous eight sword formations.
"Dual swords …"
"Could it be that Chu Mu is proficient in dual swords?" The surrounding swordsmen were all shocked.
"Could it be that he did not use his full strength when breaking through the sword formation before?"
Chu Mu temporarily obtained a chance to catch his breath. He quickly executed the Flying Swan Illusory Steps and wandered around the sword formation to recover the energy he had expended.
The pressure of the sword formation decreased significantly, and the suppression on Chu Mu was not as obvious. It was already within the range of Chu Mu's endurance. As long as he caught his breath, he would be able to defeat the sword formation.
After ten breaths, Chu Mu, who was wielding dual swords, recovered some of his strength and calmed down. Chu Mu controlled his muscles to close up, and the wound on his back stopped bleeding. He attacked again.
With dual swords in hand, I am invincible!
It had been a long time since Chu Mu used dual swords, but he did not give up on comprehending dual swords. His current dual swords had already reached the peak of Dacheng, and its power was even stronger.
One sword thrust, one sword slash, one sword slash, one sword parry, one sword attack. With dual swords in hand, he cooperated with each other, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. His attacks and defenses interchanged as if they were made by heaven, and there were no flaws.
Another sword puppet was defeated by Chu Mu's sword. The remaining five sword puppets changed again, forming the Five Elements Sword Formation.
Kill, kill, kill!
The remaining four sword puppets formed the Four Symbols Sword Formation …
Tripartite Sword Formation …
Duality Sword Formation …
There was only one sword puppet left. This sword puppet's body shook, and from the other nine sword puppets that had been defeated, streams of energy flew out and entered the body of the last sword puppet. The energy of this sword puppet suddenly increased by two times, and its sword attacks became sharper and more powerful.
At this point in the battle, Chu Mu did not have much strength left. The wound on his back was closed, but it constantly emitted waves of tearing pain, disturbing Chu Mu's mind. This was because there were traces of tenacious sword intent wreaking havoc in the wound.
"The last one …" Chu Mu's face was pale as he clenched his teeth. This was the final moment, and he could not waste all his previous efforts. He had to defeat the last sword puppet.
