His sword intent had just entered the eighth revolution, and his metal profound had also just entered the eighth revolution!
Unless Chu Mu created the ninth imprint of the Nine Revolution Heavenly Shocking Heart Imprint, he wouldn't be able to continue using the imprint's power to refine it. However, he could borrow the demonic cold stream to continue refining it to the limit.
"Now, I can continue deeper." Chu Mu wore a faint smile as he took a step forward and walked deeper into Thousand Evil Valley.
The powerful sword intent and Metal Upanishad could resist the erosion of the cold current to the greatest extent. The deeper he went, the thicker the cold current would be, and the more powerful it would be.
Extending his hand, a fingernail-sized Yin Fiend Crystal was caught by Chu Mu.
The deeper he went, the higher the chances of encountering cold crystals. Chu Mu planned to obtain more cold crystals. Even if he entered the Crimson Wasteland, he could still temper his sword intent and profound to his heart's content.
Moreover, cold crystals would be of great help to the other members of the Zhen Tian Battle Team.
Going deeper and deeper, Chu Mu released his powerful mental consciousness. Although it was suppressed, he could still feel it within a radius of dozens of meters.
The moment he felt the Yin Fiend Crystal appear, Chu Mu would quickly move and grab it.
However, it was extremely difficult to move in such a dense cold flow of Yin energy. His body was clearly restricted. Even if he used the eighth rank metal profound into his body, he was unable to move as fast as when he was in the outside world. Thus, Chu Mu missed a few Yin energy crystals.
However, he did not regret it. The deeper he went, the more cold crystals there would be. They would also be bigger and purer.
After going deeper, he finally reached his limit and could not continue. Otherwise, Chu Mu was sure that the cold currents would cause great harm to his body.
With the protection of the sword intent and the circulation of the Sword Origin, the impact of the cold current was completely blocked.
The cold currents here were shockingly dense. Although they had not yet condensed into a solid state, they were already very viscous. They were much denser than mercury. Under the impact, the power was shocking.
Chu Mu could feel that in this place, his every action was greatly restricted. He had to expend even more energy than usual.
The good thing was that there were more Baleful Yin Crystals here, and they would be able to find a piece in a short while.
The sword was an extension of one's arm. When a swordsman practiced the sword, he had to reach a level where he could wield the sword as if it were his arm, and then continue to deepen and surpass it. Chu Mu's practice of the sword had long surpassed the level where he could wield the sword as if it was an extension of his body.
He remembered that his teacher had once told him that the highest realm for a swordsman to practice the sword was to integrate the sword into the person's body, marrow, and soul, forming the imprint of the sword. It was as if the sword and the person were formed in the womb at the same time. They were born together and grew together. Their blood was connected and could not be separated.
However, this was only a legend in the world of swordsmen, and no one had ever achieved it.
Chu Mu drew his sword and began practicing his swordsmanship with the help of the endless restraints of the cold currents.
It was quite difficult to make every stroke reach the most accurate trajectory in such an environment. Moreover, Chu Mu also had to pay attention to the appearance of Baleful Yin Crystals while practicing his swordsmanship. Once a Baleful Yin Crystal appeared, he would stab or cut it with his sword and pull it into his spatial ring.
With enough battle points, Chu Mu was not in a hurry to leave the Myriad Evil Valley. Once he used up most of his energy, he would retreat and let his energy recover before continuing deeper.
After repeating this over and over again, Chu Mu's understanding of swordsmanship increased slightly. His domain of swordsmanship broke through again, reaching the sixth level. He also gained quite a few Baleful Yin Crystals.
At the same time, his sword intent and the profound of metal were constantly being eroded by the cold currents. They were constantly being tempered and improved bit by bit. However, the eighth rank was already very, very high. Every bit of improvement was very difficult.
A few days later, Chu Mu left the Myriad Evil Valley. It was nighttime, and he went to the observatory.
His mental intent once again filled his mental world. It was time to refine and condense the consciousness star again.
The fifth consciousness star!
He condensed his mental intent and extended it to a height of four thousand meters. He could feel the power of the stars more clearly.
Southern Dipper Mind Refining Scripture, fifth chapter: Dubhe Star.
The power of the stars of the Dubhe Star was guided and began to refine Chu Mu's mental intent. Ten days later, his mental intent was refined to the limit by the power of the stars. It was time to refine and condense the consciousness star again.
Chu Mu was already very proficient in condensing the consciousness star. He condensed and compressed it again and again. Under his tyrannical willpower, the consciousness star finally took shape.
The fifth consciousness star hung in the sky above his mental world, flickering with light. Chu Mu felt that his mental world had become stable again, and his five senses had improved again.
"There's still the last chapter …" Looking up at the starry sky, Chu Mu sighed faintly. Unknowingly, it had been more than two years since he became an elite disciple. Time was really …
He put away his emotions and left the observatory. The next time he came here might be half a year later.
Xiao Chen returned to the Sword Tower to rest for a day and organize his gains.
Eighth Revolution Sword Intent, Eighth Revolution Metal Profound Meaning, Sixth Level Sword Technique Domain, and a total of one hundred and thirty-three Baleful Yin Crystals. The smallest one was the size of a fingernail, which was several times larger than the soybean-sized ones he obtained earlier. The largest one was the size of a pigeon's egg. The Baleful Yin Energy contained within was even purer and denser.
More than one hundred Baleful Yin Crystals could be considered a bountiful harvest. However, Chu Mu was still not satisfied. He wanted more.
After resting for a night, Chu Mu headed to the Ten Thousand Evil Valley again. He still had a lot of battle points, enough for him to stay in the Ten Thousand Evil Valley for a few months.
Xiao Chen continued to go deeper and reached his limit again. He drew his sword and practiced his sword techniques. At the same time, he collected more Baleful Yin Crystals.
When he was tired, he rested. When he exhausted his energy, he recovered. Doing this over and over again was undoubtedly very boring.
However, Chu Mu did not mind. He was completely immersed in it. His sword techniques improved bit by bit. His Sword Technique Domain increased from the initial sixth level to the initial sixth level.
Chu Mu was cultivating. Qin Shanhe, Tu Gang, and Tantai Liuguang were also cultivating. Jin Yanlei was also cultivating in seclusion.
The breakthrough in his cultivation had increased his Spiritual Sense by a lot. He had to adapt to this increase and use it skillfully to unleash its full power.
The time of his battle with Chu Mu was getting closer. Jin Yanlei was confident that he would win.
…
In the blink of an eye, one month passed. There were still two months before the battle of life and death between Chu Mu and Jin Yanlei.
In the extremely dense Baleful Yin Current, a golden light flashed. The sword pierced out. In an instant, the Baleful Yin Current in the surroundings was pulled. It twisted and turned into a whirlpool, sweeping to the side.
As the Sword Light danced, the Baleful Yin Current was also twisted. Within the Sword Light, a clear area appeared. Chu Mu's figure was practicing his sword.
Xiao Chen was at the peak of the sixth level of the Sword Technique Domain. He was only a very thin layer away from the seventh level.
However, it was not easy to break through this layer.
The obscure feeling made Chu Mu stop practicing his sword. He knew that this was his limit. Unless he could go deeper and make the binding power of the Baleful Yin Current even stronger, he would not be able to improve his sword technique further and reach the seventh level of the Sword Technique Domain.
Letting out a breath, Chu Mu sheathed his sword. The Baleful Yin Current in the surroundings rushed over again. Chu Mu quickly retreated. He had decided to leave the Thousand Evil Valley.
After a month of erosion and tempering, his sword intent and gold profound had become a little purer. However, he still had not reached the early stage. He was at the peak of the sixth level of the Sword Technique Domain. He was only one step away from the seventh level. His biggest gain was the Baleful Yin Crystals.
Every day, Chu Mu could get at least a hundred Baleful Yin Crystals. The smallest ones were the size of a fingernail, while the largest were the size of a pigeon's egg.
After a month, the number of Baleful Yin Crystals in his interspatial ring kept increasing. Now, he had 3,875 crystals. After returning to the Sword Tower, Chu Mu started to organize them.
He divided the three thousand eight hundred and seventy-five yin fiend crystals according to their size, which could basically be divided into three levels.
The smallest was the fingernail-sized Yin Fiend Crystal. Chu Mu defined it as a first level Yin Fiend Crystal. As for the pigeon egg-sized Yin Fiend Crystal, he defined it as a third level. Between first and third level Yin Fiend Crystals, he defined it as a second level.
After classifying them, Grade 1 Baleful Yin Crystals were the most abundant, with 2,150, Grade 2 Baleful Yin Crystals were second, with 1,035, and Grade 3 Baleful Yin Crystals were the least, with 690.
If he continued to stay in the Thousand Evil Valley, he could get more Baleful Yin Crystals. However, Chu Mu was not willing to do that. He had other things to do.
Picking up a Grade 1 Baleful Yin Crystal, Xiao Chen absorbed the Baleful Yin Energy into his spiritual world. Soon, the Baleful Yin Crystal disappeared.
This was a crystal formed by the Baleful Yin Current. There were no impurities in it. Once it was absorbed, it would disappear.
The incomparably pure Baleful Yin Energy in his spiritual world split into two, wrapping around the sword intent and the gold profound, constantly eroding them. The sword intent and gold profound also constantly fought against the Baleful Yin Energy, tempering them.
According to the current consumption rate, Chu Mu calculated silently. A Grade 1 Baleful Yin Crystal could support him for two days of tempering. If his sword intent and gold profound were only at the seventh revolution, a Grade 1 Baleful Yin Crystal would be enough for him to temper for four days.
"Grade 1 is two days. Grade 2 should be four days. Grade 3 might be six or even eight days." Chu Mu thought to himself. However, this was only his guess. Whether it was true or not had yet to be verified.
Taking out the Battle Record Sword Token, Xiao Chen informed Qin Shan, He Gang, and Tantai Liuguang to gather in the Sword Tower.
Chu Mu explained the effects of the Baleful Yin Crystals. Then, he took out three hundred Grade 1 Baleful Yin Crystals and distributed them equally to the three of them. At their level, one Grade 1 Baleful Yin Crystal was enough for a few days. One hundred of them could last them for a few hundred days.
Tu Gang and Tantai Liuguang also took out two dark red elixir gourds.
"Captain, these are the Blood Yang Elixirs." Tu Gang smiled.
The Blood Yang Elixirs were sent over by the Hongtian Sect and the Tantai Clan. However, there weren't many of them. After all, the Blood Yang Elixirs were expensive to refine. Furthermore, there were only four hundred of them.
Chu Mu received two hundred, Qin Shanhe received forty, and Tu Gang and Tantai Liuguang each received eighty.
