In the Green Bamboo Garden, only Chu Mu sat alone in the pavilion, looking at the Green Sword Bamboos and lost in thought.
The five forces — Shattered Star Tower, Flying Heaven Pavilion, Sky-splitting Sword Sect, Extreme Black Palace, and Myriad Mountains Villa — were about the same in terms of strength, but there were slight differences in nature.
"Shattered Star Tower is not suitable … I don't like Extreme Black Palace … Myriad Mountains Villa is not suitable …" After thinking about it, Chu Mu finally decided to go to the Flying Heaven Pavilion.
The Flying Heaven Pavilion and Shattered Star Tower only recruited geniuses among geniuses. With Chu Mu's talent and strength, as long as the people in the Flying Heaven Pavilion were not blind, they would definitely not miss out on Chu Mu.
Having made up his mind, Chu Mu temporarily put aside his thoughts about the five forces and turned to study the strange attack that had injured Zhang Heng's spiritual world. The feeling of merging with the sharpness of the Green Bamboo Garden.
"Such an attack is similar to the description of the second half of the secret technique Pupils of Sword …" Chu Mu muttered.
He had not cultivated the second half of the Eye of the Sword for more than half a year on the Hongtian airship. Instead, he had been consolidating the first half, making the Sword of Divine Will more solid and smooth. It had reached its peak. Now, it was time to cultivate the second half of the Eye of the Sword.
The second half of the Pupils of Sword was very profound and mysterious. It was not easy to practice, but Chu Mu had found inspiration. That was the sharpness of the Green Bamboo Garden. Starting from there, it would be easier to practice the second half of the Pupils of Sword.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Zhang Heng's spiritual world was injured, so he immediately went into seclusion to heal. With the help of some rare elixirs and special techniques, he quickly recovered. Chu Mu basically stayed in the Green Bamboo Garden to meditate and gradually comprehend.
At this time, someone came to the Green Bamboo Garden and did not dare to enter.
"Your Excellency Chu Mu … Your Excellency Chu Mu …" This person was Tian Qiaoyu's servant. When he called out, a figure flashed and he immediately retreated. When he saw that it was Chu Mu, he was relieved.
"What's the matter?" Chu Mu asked.
"Young Master invites you," the servant hurriedly said.
"Lead the way." Chu Mu didn't ask what the matter was. Seeing the anxious expression on the servant's face, it should be something urgent. He would know when he went over.
The servant also had the cultivation of the Deity Congealing Realm, and his running speed wasn't slow. Chu Mu, on the other hand, followed behind him at a leisurely pace.
Not long after, Chu Mu followed the servant to a Sword Battle Arena of the Tianqiao Clan. There were two swordsmen fighting on it. Tianqiao Yu was there, and there were also some people from the Tianqiao Clan. In addition, not far away from Tianqiao Yu, there was also a young man who was around the same age as Tianqiao Yu. There was a group of people standing behind him, and all of them were sneering.
The injuries on Zhang Heng's spiritual world had already healed. He stood next to Tianqiaoyu. When he saw Chu Mu, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
"Brother Chu, you're here." Tian Qiaoyu hurriedly greeted him.
"Brother Tianqiao, what's the matter?" Chu Mu walked to Tianqiao Yu's side and asked.
"I need Brother Chu's help." Tianqiao Yu explained, and Zhang Heng beside him became even more displeased.
"Brother Chu, you already know that my Tianqiao Clan mainly deals in artifacts. In this West Tiger City, there's another clan that also deals in artifacts like my Tianqiao Clan. Each of them occupies half of the city." Tianqiao Clan explained briefly, "This clan is the Xuanji Clan. The Tianqiao Clan and the Xuanji Clan were originally friendly. Later, due to a conflict of interests, it led to a conflict. Since then, we've been opposing each other."
Then, Tianqiao Yu gestured to the seemingly unbridled and fearless young man opposite him.
"He's Xuanji Wudao of the Xuanji Clan. He's the son of the Xuanji Clan's patriarch and the young lord of the Xuanji Clan. He also has an older sister. We've been at odds since we were young. This time, he might have recruited some experts and specially came to show off and slap my face." Tianqiao Yu said.
In just a few words, Tianqiao Yu basically explained the Tianqiao Clan and the Xuanji Clan to Chu Mu clearly, allowing Chu Mu to have a direct understanding of them.
People of the same trade were enemies. This had been the case since ancient times. Moreover, they were on good terms at the beginning, but later on, it led to a conflict of interests. It was already good that a war hadn't broken out.
"Brother Tianqiao, don't worry. If you need my help, just let me know." Chu Mu said.
"Then I'm relieved." Tianqiao Yu smiled. Zhang Heng beside him was even more displeased.
At this moment, the outcome of the battle on the battle arena was decided. Tianqiao Yu's man was sent flying by a sword and was severely injured. He kept vomiting blood and was hurriedly carried down.
"Brother Yu, this new recruit of mine is pretty strong, right?" Xuanji said with a smile. After all, it was his people who had won.
"He's indeed quite capable." Tianqiao Yu didn't lose to his imposing manner. Hearing this, he smiled and handed over 100,000 high-grade Origin Crystals. This was the bet.
"Brother Yu, do you still want to continue?" Xuanji Wudao smiled. His arrogance was deeply hidden in his smile. "If you want to continue, we'll double the bet."
100,000 high-grade Origin Crystals. Doubling the bet was equivalent to 200,000 high-grade Origin Crystals. For Tianqiao Yu, this was a huge amount of personal wealth.
"Okay." Tianqiao Yu agreed directly. He had fought with Xuanji Wudao for a long time and both of them had won and lost. He also understood Xuanji Wudao's temperament. If he didn't agree now, he would be seen as a coward. Xuanji Wudao would definitely use other methods to provoke him. It was better to agree quickly. The outcome was still unknown.
"Straightforward." Xuanji Wudao laughed loudly. "I'll let him fight. You can do whatever you want."
While Tianqiao Yu was hesitating whether to ask Chu Mu to fight, Zhang Heng volunteered. He smiled coldly and said, "You're just a clown. Let me defeat you."
Then, without waiting for Tianqiao Yu's agreement, Zhang Heng flew up and landed on the battle arena. He faced Xuanji Wudao's swordsman Qi tit for tat.
The battle arena was opened. The battle inside wasn't a battle of sword arts, but a real battle. The kind that required real strength.
The swordsman recruited by Xuanji Wudao was extraordinary. He was in the state of One with the Sword and could use sword skills.
Zhang Heng took out his sword and immediately fought fiercely with his opponent. Both of them used sword skills to attack each other.
After three sword skills, the swordsman was immediately sent flying by Zhang Heng's sword. A huge wound appeared on his body and blood gushed out.
"Brother Wudao, I won this round." Tianqiao Yu smiled.
Xuanji Wudao's eyes flashed with anger. Then, he smiled and said, "Okay, I admit defeat. The 200,000 high-grade Origin Crystals are yours. However, do you dare to fight the third round with me? 500,000 high-grade Origin Crystals."
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Before Tianqiao Yu could say anything, Zhang Heng spoke first. Tianqiao Yu frowned but didn't say anything.
Xuanji Wudao didn't say anything. He just signaled a young swordsman next to him to get on the battle arena.
The young swordsman's face was cold as if he didn't care about life. It was chilling.
As soon as he got on the battle arena, he emitted a sharp aura with a shocking chill. It was as if the air around him was going to freeze.
Zhang Heng was startled. He was very vigilant. This young swordsman gave him a dangerous feeling.
"You're not my opponent." The young swordsman said.
"Cut the crap. Take my sword." Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows and shouted coldly. He took out his sword and used his sword skill. Raging flames rolled out.
This was a probing attack. It was a first grade human class Earth Breaker sword skill.
"Child's play." Zhang Heng tried to probe his opponent, but his opponent immediately used a powerful sword skill. With a slash of his sword, a white tiger transformed into a heaven-shaking roar, breaking through the torrent of flames and rushing towards Zhang Heng. This was a sword skill that combined two profound meanings, and its power was overwhelming.
Zhang Heng was startled. He quickly used his second grade human class Earth Breaker sword skill to resist.
The young swordsman's sword intent was the same as Zhang Heng's. They were both at the peak of the eighth revolution. They were evenly matched.
Immediately, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle. The first grade human class Earth Breaker sword skill and the second grade human class Earth Breaker sword skill were both used. They either dodged, clashed, or used defensive sword skills. The battle was very intense and exciting. The audience couldn't take their eyes off of it.
Xuanji Wudao seemed to be very confident in the young swordsman. He had his hands behind his back, looking as if victory was already in his grasp.
Zhang Heng was unhappy that he couldn't defeat his opponent quickly. He kept increasing his strength, but he still couldn't defeat his opponent.
When the two sides got close to each other, they would also use their sword skills. This sword skill was fused with sword intent. Although it wasn't as powerful as a sword skill, it was still very powerful. Once hit, injuries were inevitable.
As soon as they clashed, Chu Mu could see that the young swordsman's sword skills were slightly better than Zhang Heng's. He estimated that the young swordsman was at the peak of the eighth layer. In terms of the depth of his sword skills, he had also reached half-step form, which was comparable to Jiang Caidie. He could be considered a very powerful sword genius.
For a moment, the two sides were neck and neck. Zhang Heng indeed had the right to be proud.
However, Chu Mu had a feeling that this young swordsman didn't seem to be using his full strength.
Tian Qiaoyu naturally hoped that Zhang Heng could win. Although he didn't like this young swordsman, it was related to the five hundred thousand upper grade Origin Crystals and his face.
"Your strength is only so-so." The young swordsman suddenly retreated and said coldly. A shocking cold aura burst out of his body. It penetrated the seal like a cold wind, causing everyone to shiver.
Shortly after, the young swordsman used his sword skill again. This time, the sword skill was no small matter.
With a slash of his sword, a stream of ice appeared. It was a sword skill fused with the profound of ice and water. Shortly after, he waved his sword again. Snow fell from the sky and covered the stream of ice with a layer of frost, greatly increasing the power of the stream of ice. Shortly after, the young swordsman used his sword again. Mist filled the sky and covered Zhang Heng.
First, it was a Second Grade Earth Shattering Sword Skill, followed by a First Grade Earth Shattering Sword Skill. Under the fusion of their power, it reached the level of a Second Grade and a Half Earth Shattering Sword Skill. Another First Grade Earth Shattering Sword Skill was used to confuse Zhang Heng. In the end, the young swordsman seemed to have fused with the sword in his hand. A cold Sword Light broke through the layers of mist and slashed out.
The cold young swordsman displayed astonishing talent. His ice profundity, water profundity, snow profundity, and mist profundity had all been refined to the peak of the eighth rank. In terms of talent, he was superior to Zhang Heng. In terms of sword skills, he was indeed superior to Zhang Heng.
