"Are you sure?" The teacher-in-charge glanced at Chu Mu and asked lightly.
"Yes." Chu Mu's tone was very certain.
"I have faith in you. Live on." The teacher-in-charge paused and said.
Chu Mu nodded and stood up. He saluted the teacher-in-charge and turned to leave.
After becoming an elite disciple, Chu Mu's every move was under the teacher-in-charge's control. Therefore, the teacher-in-charge also knew about his challenge to Jin Yanlei and summoned Chu Mu.
Jin Yanlei was a God Condensation Realm swordsman, and a peak God Condensation Realm swordsman at that. Chu Mu was only an Origin Realm swordsman. There was a huge gap between the two. Even the teacher-in-charge himself couldn't bridge this gap back in the day.
However, after seeing Chu Mu and talking with Chu Mu for a short while, the teacher-in-charge had a feeling that perhaps Chu Mu could win.
He didn't try to persuade or stop him because he also wanted to see if Chu Mu could defeat Jin Yanlei.
Standing at his height and with his knowledge, he naturally knew that there were geniuses in the Origin Realm who could fight against God Condensation Realm. There were even geniuses in the Origin Realm who could kill God Condensation Realm cultivators. It was just that it was relatively rare.
If Chu Mu could fight against or even defeat Jin Yanlei, the teacher-in-charge's eyes couldn't help but light up.
…
Late at night, in the observatory, Chu Mu's spiritual consciousness condensed into a beam and spread three thousand meters up in the sky. He could clearly feel the power of the stars from the Sky Same Star and draw it into his spiritual world.
His spiritual consciousness had been refined once again. Now, it was time to condense a Mind Star. The fourth Mind Star.
Compressing and condensing again and again, his spiritual world was under great pressure again and again. It trembled and almost collapsed. However, Chu Mu ignored it and focused on condensing and compressing with his strong will.
With a loud bang, it was as if a star had exploded. Under the stardust, a speck of starlight flickered beside the third thought star. The fourth thought star had been successfully condensed.
The four Mind Stars resonated, and the starlight and spiritual consciousness spread out, hitting the barrier of the spiritual world. Immediately, the barrier of the spiritual world was strengthened and became more stable.
At this point, he had cultivated more than half of the Southern Dipper Mind Refining Scripture. His spiritual will was four times stronger than before.
Chu Mu's five senses were also affected by the increase of his spiritual power, and there was a slight increase.
After the fourth consciousness star was condensed, Chu Mu's speed in deducing the eighth hand seal of the Nine Revolution Heavenly Shocking Seal increased by several times. In order to study this hand seal as soon as possible so that he could temper it to the eighth revolution, Chu Mu temporarily put aside all other cultivation and spent almost 24 hours a day on studying the hand seal.
Originally, it would have taken several months to complete the hand seal. However, after increasing the efficiency time and time again, it was finally completed in less than a month.
At this time, Qin Shan, He Tu Gang, and Tantai Liuguang had already spent more than a month in the Evil Valley, and each of them had improved.
…
"Very good. Since he wants to die, we'll fulfill his wish." In the Demon Slaying Battle Team's encampment, Jin Yanlei's face was ashen. His eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he looked like he was gnashing his teeth. Immediately, he said to the people beside him, "Spread the news. Say that I agree to Chu Mu's challenge."
Jin Yanlei responded and agreed to the life and death battle with Chu Mu. This news once again caused a storm of heated discussion.
…
"Jin Yanlei …" After hearing the news, Chu Mu smiled slightly. He didn't say anything and left the Sword Tower for the Evil Valley.
The eighth hand seal of the Nine Revolution Heavenly Shocking Seal was completed. Now, it was time to refine the sword intent and gold profound.
Once his sword intent and metal profound were refined to the eighth revolution, his sharpness would be even sharper, and his power would greatly increase. He would become even more terrifying. When that time came, Chu Mu's strength would multiply again. When he faced the Golden Flame Lightning again, he had absolute confidence in winning.
Moreover, there was still a lot of time. Chu Mu could continue to improve. Even if Jin Yanlei's strength increased, Chu Mu still had the confidence to cut him down.
This was confidence. Confidence in himself, in the sword in his hand, and in his own way of the sword!
Entering the Evil Valley, Chu Mu went deeper and deeper. Once again, he came to the place where he found the Baleful Yin Crystal. A small part of the Baleful Yin Qi here had already liquefied.
The condensation of the fourth Star of Consciousness and the slight improvement of the sword intent and gold profound allowed Chu Mu to go deeper and deeper.
After another dozen meters or so, the Baleful Yin Qi had already disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by Baleful Yin Qi. Waves of Baleful Yin Qi rushed over and swept past Chu Mu's body. Even the protective sword aura could not resist it. It was instantly eroded and disappeared. His clothes were also eroded and torn, leaving him naked.
Sword Origin revolved and covered his entire body. It immediately resisted the Baleful Yin Qi, preventing him from being damaged by the Baleful Yin Qi. The Desolate Sky Sword Body also allowed Chu Mu's body to have a certain degree of resistance to the Baleful Yin Qi.
The difference between the liquefied Baleful Yin Qi and the Baleful Yin Qi appeared. Not only would it invade the spiritual world and erode the sword intent and profound, it would also cause a certain degree of damage to the body.
Fortunately, Chu Mu could multitask. He controlled the circulation of Sword Origin to protect his body. At the same time, he began to form the eighth hand seal with both hands. He activated his mental cultivation method and merged his spiritual will with the Baleful Yin Qi to refine the seventh revolution sword intent.
There was no doubt that the Baleful Yin Qi was much stronger than the Baleful Yin Qi. The refining effect was much better. Therefore, refining here, coupled with the fact that his spiritual will was stronger, the efficiency increased by almost seven times.
Ever since Chu Mu entered the Thousand Evil Valley, he had not appeared again. However, Qin Shanhe and the other two knew that Chu Mu was cultivating in the Thousand Evil Valley. However, they thought that Chu Mu was refining his second profound. They did not know that Chu Mu was still refining his sword intent and profound of gold.
The seventh revolution was already shocking enough. If they knew that Chu Mu was trying to reach the eighth revolution, they would probably be scared silly.
As time passed, the discussion about Chu Mu and Golden Yanlei gradually died down. As Golden Yanlei and Chu Mu did not appear, the discussion gradually died down. However, everyone remembered that day and waited for it to come.
After Qin Shanhe and the other two used up all their battle points, they left the Thousand Evil Valley. After more than a hundred days of continuous refining, Qin Shanhe's sword intent and profound of earth finally broke through to the sixth revolution.
Tu Gang's speed profound had also broken through from the third revolution to the peak of the fourth revolution and was close to the fifth revolution. Tantai Liuguang's thunder profound had increased from the second revolution to the fourth revolution after using up all his battle points. This speed was considered fast, but compared to Chu Mu, there was still a huge gap.
After using up all their battle points, they did not leave the Sword Palace. Instead, they started to cultivate the Burning Blood Transformation.
They naturally had their own secret arts, but they were not as good as the Burning Blood Transformation.
At the same time, Tu Gang and Tantai Liuguang sent messages back to the Hongtian Sect and Tantai Clan to ask for the Blood Yang Elixir.
Their status in the Hongtian Sect and Tantai Clan was extraordinary. Their reasonable requests would usually be fulfilled.
…
In the Demon Slayer Battle Team's encampment, there was a cracking sound from a house. Two terrifying radiances were shot out and left ripples in the air.
"Chu Mu, you didn't expect this right? After dispelling the seventh revolution sword intent and gold profound that you left in my heart, my cultivation actually broke through and reached the Initial Stage of the God Congealing Realm. My strength has increased exponentially. When the time comes, I will properly repay your kindness." Jin Yanlei grinned. His face was filled with a sinister smile, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
A blessing in disguise!
Originally, when Chu Mu left the seventh revolution sword intent and the seventh revolution gold profound in his heart, his heart was constantly under attack and was in unbearable pain. He did not expect that after dispelling it, he would unexpectedly break through.
The difference between the peak of the Entry Stage and the Initial Stage was just a thin line, but his strength had increased exponentially.
If he was at the Initial Stage of the God Congealing Realm, he would be able to defeat Chu Mu even if he didn't execute his secret art. Once he executed his secret art, killing Chu Mu would be a piece of cake.
"I will let you live a little longer and enjoy your remaining life." Jin Yanlei sneered. His laughter echoed in his house.
…
"Eighth revolution sword intent, such sharpness …" In the depths of the Thousand Evil Valley, a soft sigh could be heard.
In Chu Mu's spiritual world, at the edge of the sword intent in the fledgling sword soul, a layer of sharpness became increasingly clear. It was extremely terrifying. It made Chu Mu feel that the fledgling sword soul was showing signs of not being able to withstand the eighth revolution sword intent and was about to collapse.
The eighth revolution sword intent was much stronger than the seventh revolution sword intent.
A sword strengthened by the eighth revolution sword intent would be even sharper.
"Eighth revolution sword intent, my soul is starting to feel stuffed. Is the eighth revolution my limit?" Chu Mu could not help but think to himself.
Previously, he did not know where his limit was. It could be the eighth revolution or the ninth revolution, but he always had hope in his heart that he could refine it to the ninth revolution.
But now, he had glimpsed a trace of his limit. The eighth revolution was not fated to reach the ninth revolution. He could not help but feel a trace of disappointment.
But in an instant, that trace of disappointment was erased by Chu Mu. The eighth revolution was the eighth revolution. This had already surpassed many people, reaching a level that others could only look up to.
Moreover, Instructor Ji Tianxiang had said that in the Immemorial World, according to what he knew, there had never been a heaven-defying person who could refine the profound of sword intent to the ninth revolution. Perhaps Ji Tianxiang's understanding was not comprehensive enough, but it also showed how difficult it was to reach the ninth revolution.
There were differences between the eighth revolution. It could be the early stage of the eighth revolution, the middle or late stage of the eighth revolution, or even the peak or the limit of the eighth revolution.
There was also a difference between each small level.
Chu Mu was sure that his limit was the eighth revolution, but he could not be sure which small level it was.
Since he was sure that it was the eighth revolution, Chu Mu did not dwell on it. Instead, he began to refine the profound of metal.
The profound of metal had already reached the peak of the early stage of the seventh revolution after being corroded by the cold streams for several months. It was only a fine line away from the middle stage. In just a day's time, Chu Mu had successfully refined the profound of metal to the middle stage of the seventh revolution and was moving towards the late stage.
His battle points were very abundant, enough to last him an entire year.
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, almost nine months had passed since Chu Mu returned to the elite disciple area of the Sky Edge Sword Palace.
