As the wind blew, the bamboo forest swayed and the bamboo leaves rustled. Countless sharpness spread out from the leaves like endless sword qi drifting in the air.
Sunlight shone through the atmosphere. Every bamboo leaf that was like a sword had light refracted from them. The air was filled with countless brilliant lights, making it extremely gorgeous.
Green Bamboo Garden was filled with Green Sword Bamboos. Chu Mu felt very comfortable cultivating in this environment.
There was a house and a pavilion in Green Bamboo Garden. At this moment, Chu Mu was sitting on a cushion in the pavilion with his eyes closed. He was concentrating on cultivating the Sky-Desolate Sword Essence. His left and right hands were holding a piece of upper grade origin crystal.
Upper grade origin crystals were energy crystals suitable for king level experts to cultivate. Although Chu Mu was not a king level expert, his sword intent and profound were very powerful in all aspects. He could barely absorb the energy of upper grade origin crystals for cultivation. The effect was better than absorbing middle grade origin crystals.
The sharpness of the Green Sword Bamboos put Chu Mu in constant resistance. In this way, he could temper his mind to a certain extent and indirectly refine his sword essence, increasing its purity.
…
"Brother Zhang, I've already investigated clearly. The person living in the Green Bamboo Garden is called Chu Mu. He's one of the geniuses that came from all over the West Lake Region. His sword intent and profound have been refined to the limits of the eighth rank. Moreover, he obtained first place in the young master's sword technique competition on the Heaven Shattering Ship. He is highly valued by the young master, so the young master gave the Green Bamboo Garden to him." In a manor, a swordsman wearing a short gown spoke to a cold and arrogant young swordsman.
"No matter how highly valued he is, he is still a family general of the Tianqiao Clan." Zhang Heng sneered.
"That's right. Even Brother Zhang didn't live in Green Bamboo Garden. What qualifications does a lowly person from outside the West Lake Region have?" The swordsman sneered in disdain.
Zhang Heng didn't say anything else. He walked away from the manor and strode towards Green Bamboo Garden.
The name of the Green Bamboo Garden was very ordinary and there was nothing special about it. However, the people of the Tianqiao Clan knew that it was not ordinary at all. It could be said that the Green Bamboo Garden was the number one garden in the Tianqiao Clan below the king level gardens. Whoever lived in the Green Bamboo Garden would, in a certain sense, be the number one person below the king level in the Tianqiao Clan.
Zhang Heng was born in the West Tiger Territory. Even though he wasn't a member of a major clan or faction, he believed that he was of noble birth compared to the people outside the West Tiger Territory. He had extraordinary talent and his soul spirit was much stronger than ordinary sword practitioners. Moreover, he was recruited by Tianqiao Yu a few years ago and joined the Tianqiao Clan. With the environment and resources of the Tianqiao Clan, his strength improved very quickly.
His sword intent had reached the peak of the eighth revolution, and his three profundities had also been tempered to the peak of the eighth revolution. His sword technique had even reached the eighth level of the Sword Technique Domain. In the entire Tianqiao Clan, he had defeated all the swordsmen below the King Stage. Including the disciples of the Tianqiao Clan, he had become the number one person below the King Stage in the Tianqiao Clan. He was highly valued and treated extremely well.
Naturally, Zhang Heng's temperament had also quietly changed. He began to think highly of himself. He believed that he had considerable authority in the Tianqiao Clan and that he wouldn't be much weaker than the young master, Tianqiao Yu.
He had always wanted to live in the Green Bamboo Garden. Unfortunately, Tianqiao Yu wasn't willing. If no one lived in the Green Bamboo Garden, even if Zhang Heng was unhappy, it wouldn't be a problem. The problem was that someone was living in the Green Bamboo Garden now. Moreover, it was a person of low birth who came from outside the West Tiger Territory.
Tianqiao Yu was talking to his father at this moment. Suddenly, he thought of something and his expression changed immediately.
"What's wrong?" His father asked indifferently.
"Nothing. I just suddenly thought that if we arrange for Chu Mu to live in the Green Bamboo Garden, Zhang Heng might get into trouble." Tianqiao Yu knew Zhang Heng very well.
"Don't worry. Zhang Heng's sword intent and profound have been tempered to the peak of the eighth revolution. His sword skills are extraordinary. He is indeed a peerless genius. Your new friend, Chu Mu, has reached the peak of the eighth revolution in sword intent and profound. His sword skills are also not bad. Let them fight. If Chu Mu wins, you have to befriend him wholeheartedly."
"I understand." Tianqiao Yu said, "Father, I'll go first to avoid any problems."
"Go."
…
Soon, Zhang Heng and the short-robed swordsman arrived outside the Green Bamboo Garden.
With a cold smile, Zhang Heng walked into the Green Bamboo Garden. Just as the swordsman took a step forward, he immediately retracted his foot. The tyrannical sharpness of the Green Bamboo Garden made him not dare to take even half a step forward.
When someone walked into the Green Bamboo Garden, the sharpness of the Green Bamboo Garden was immediately affected. Through the vibrations in the air, Chu Mu immediately sensed it. However, Chu Mu did not care about it.
After entering the Green Bamboo Garden, Zhang Heng saw Chu Mu sitting cross-legged in the pavilion with a cold smile on his face. He walked over with large strides, emitting a strong aura that was as sharp as a sword. A strong hostility was also released.
Immediately, a strong wind blew in the Green Bamboo Garden, whistling. Countless sharpness auras surged over as if they were angered by Zhang Heng.
"A mere inanimate object dares to go against me? Break!" Zhang Heng roared, his voice was like a divine sword slashing down. The sword intent of the eighth revolution gushed out from his body and a terrifying sharpness swept in all directions. Suddenly, there were countless sounds of metal clashing in the air, and countless sparks flew in all directions.
Chu Mu also sensed the strong hostility. His closed eyes instantly opened. In an instant, the sharpness of the Green Bamboo Garden seemed to have gained a backbone. It merged with Chu Mu's gaze. As it roared, it merged into two sharp swords of divine light that shot through the sky, piercing through the layers of space-time and shooting towards Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng was shocked. He could not dodge at all and was directly hit by Chu Mu's divine swords. His mental world was shaken, and his divine sense was disrupted before he could form an effective resistance.
With a muffled groan, Zhang Heng's face was pale, and his eyes were lifeless. He could not help but take a few steps back and spit out a mouthful of blood.
In just one exchange, he was injured. Moreover, it was an injury to his mental world. Zhang Heng did not dare to stay here any longer. He turned around and quickly left, spitting out another mouthful of blood. Otherwise, it would be very uncomfortable.
Zhang Heng originally wanted to teach Chu Mu a lesson and let him understand that he was not qualified to live in the Green Bamboo Garden. He never thought that in just one exchange, before he even made a move, his mental world would be injured by Chu Mu.
An injury to the mental world was more troublesome than an injury to the body. If it was not healed in time, it would leave behind very bad sequelae.
Zhang Heng rushed out of the Green Bamboo Garden without saying a word. Under the puzzled gaze of the short-robed swordsman, he quickly left. He just happened to pass by Tian Qiaoyu, who also saw Zhang Heng's pale face and the trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
Zhang Heng did not even greet him. Tian Qiaoyu was used to Zhang Heng's arrogance, but when he saw Zhang Heng's appearance, he knew that Zhang Heng was injured, and it was not light. Otherwise, he would not have left so quickly.
Tian Qiaoyu retracted his gaze and walked into the Green Bamboo Garden. He saw Chu Mu in the pavilion and strode over.
"Brother Chu, you really have good methods." Tian Qiaoyu sighed: "This Zhang Heng's sword intent has been refined to the peak of the eighth revolution. He has exceptional talent and extraordinary sword skills. After becoming a general of my Tian Qiao clan a few years ago, he relied on his talent and became increasingly arrogant. He asked me for the Green Bamboo Garden many times, but I did not agree. This time, he probably knows that Brother Chu is living in the Green Bamboo Garden and came to find trouble with you."
His words explained the reason for Zhang Heng's sudden arrival.
"I am also borrowing Green Bamboo Garden's sharpness." Chu Mu said.
He was cultivating, trying to fuse with Green Bamboo Garden's sharpness aura. Zhang Heng's hostility stimulated Green Bamboo Garden's sharpness aura and stimulated Chu Mu. In an instant, Chu Mu found a point of convergence with Green Bamboo Garden's sharpness aura and fused them into one. They condensed into two divine light swords and shot into the sky to attack Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng's soul was not as strong as Chu Mu's to begin with, so his divine sense was naturally inferior to Chu Mu's. Under the attack of the divine light swords, he could not resist at all and his mental world was immediately injured.
If not for Chu Mu's weak fusion with Green Bamboo Garden's sharpness, the two divine light swords would have been enough to shatter Zhang Heng's mental world and kill him.
Of course, that was also because Zhang Heng did not have time to use a defensive divine sense secret technique. Everything happened too quickly and too suddenly, it was completely out of Zhang Heng's expectations.
"After this, Zhang Heng should have restrained himself and will not dare to find trouble with you again." Tian Qiaoyu smiled.
"His mental world is injured. He won't be able to recover without some time," Chu Mu said with a slight smile.
"Let's not talk about Zhang Heng anymore. I brought some good wine. Let's have a good taste." Tian Qiaoyu waved his hand and a few small wine bottles appeared in front of him. Each of them was carved from white jade and looked as if they were naturally formed. They were extremely valuable.
Chu Mu did not stand on ceremony and began to enjoy the wine with Tian Qiaoyu. They chatted while enjoying the wine.
"Brother Tian Qiaoyu, do you know anything about the major forces in the West Tiger Region?" Chu Mu asked.
"Brother Chu, you want to ask about the major forces that are about to open their mountain gates, right?" Tian Qiaoyu smiled and said, "There are countless forces in the West Tiger Region, big and small. The Tianqiao Clan that I belong to is one of the many forces. However, among these forces, there are six that are the most powerful. They are above all the other forces. "
After a pause, Tian Qiaoyu continued, "These six forces are the West Tiger Palace, the Shattered Star Tower, the Sky Splitting Sword Sect, the Flying Heaven Pavilion, the Extreme Black Palace, and the Wanda Villa.
"The West Tiger Palace is a branch of the Heavenly Sword Hall in the West Tiger Region. It does not recruit disciples and is a little special. It has a high status and is number one in the West Tiger Region.
"As for the Shattered Star Tower, the Sky Splitting Sword Sect, the Flying Heaven Pavilion, the Extreme Black Palace, and the Wanda Villa, they are on par with each other. However, there are some differences.
"The Shattered Star Tower and the Flying Heaven Pavilion only recruit true geniuses. Therefore, they have fewer disciples. However, the quality of their disciples is very high. Compared to the two, the Shattered Star Tower is more mysterious. I don't know how to recruit disciples after opening their mountain gates.
"The Sky Splitting Sword Sect, the Extreme Black Palace, and the Wanda Villa are more open to the public. As long as one can pass their test, one can become a disciple. However, the Extreme Black Palace is more unscrupulous and somewhat evil. The Wanda Villa is more focused on inheritance. After joining the Wanda Villa, one cannot leave for the rest of one's life.
