Outside the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda, Wang Wei's face was filled with astonishment. Chu Mu had been in there for quite some time, but he still hadn't come out. Could it be that he could really obtain the sacred sword?
Actually, from the beginning, Wang Wei didn't think that Chu Mu could succeed in the challenge.
This was because he knew the challenge rules of the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda. Every floor had eight opponents, and the opponents from the first to the third floor had the same cultivation as him. They had only grasped one type of power of law, but their level would continuously increase from low to high. Their battle prowess would also increase along with their strength.
The opponents from the fourth to the sixth floor had a cultivation that was one level higher than him. They had grasped two types of power of law and could fuse them together. Their battle prowess would increase and their strength would increase.
The opponents from the seventh to the ninth floor had a cultivation that was two levels higher than him. They had grasped three types of power of law and could fuse them together. Their battle prowess would increase and their strength would increase.
And to succeed in the challenge, one would have to at least pass the third floor.
Wang Wei guessed that Chu Mu, a mere new Sword Of Gojoseon, had not yet grasped the sword technique, so it was impossible for him to pass the third floor.
What he didn't know was that on the fifth floor of the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda, Chu Mu was fighting with his eighth opponent.
The eighth opponent on the fifth floor had a cultivation at the second layer of the Creation Realm. He had grasped two types of power of law and had reached the peak of the Earth Realm. The moment he attacked, he alternated between using an Earth Tier One Advanced Sword Technique and an Earth Tier Two Advanced Sword Technique. His power was even more tyrannical. His sword techniques weaved in and out, sometimes close and sometimes far. It was very difficult to deal with.
This was a powerful two-star Sword Of Gojoseon. He was much stronger than the two-star Sword Of Gojoseon that Chu Mu had killed before. He was a difficult opponent to deal with.
Chu Mu kept dodging. Because he had gone through a series of battles, his Divine Sense and Sword Energy had been greatly depleted. He didn't have much left.
What left them speechless was that they couldn't consume recovery pills within the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda. They couldn't rely on their own recovery speed to keep up with their recovery speed.
Until now, his remaining Sword Energy and Divine Sense were only enough to perform one Earth Rank Second Stage Earth Breaking Sword Skill or one Earth Rank First Stage Heaven Shocking Sword Skill. His opponent's attacks were like a torrential storm, tireless and endless. Alternating between sword arts and sword skills, it was extremely difficult to deal with. Chu Mu was looking for an opportunity.
The opponents of the Heaven Cleaving Sword Pagoda were each stronger and more complete than the last. Chu Mu found it difficult to find an opening in this opponent's attack. Even if he did find one, it would be fleeting and difficult to grasp.
If Chu Mu was still at the peak of the Divine Condensation Realm and his opponent was also at the peak of the Divine Condensation Realm, then even if his opponent's Sword Origin was several times denser than Chu Mu's, Chu Mu would still be able to defeat him in a few moves. However, he was now at the Manifestation Realm.
This was a new realm, the starting point of an expert. Chu Mu was temporarily unable to use many of the powers that he had grasped. He was unable to erupt with his most powerful form.
Dodging, dodging, dodging. His brain never stopped working. His thoughts spun rapidly as he calculated and simulated. In the end, Chu Mu grasped an instant of opportunity.
His opponent's sword was like the last rays of the setting sun, its afterglow desolate yet magnificent. As it danced, the world seemed to end.
Chu Mu's moving body suddenly stopped. Once his sword struck out, there was no turning back. He slashed out, struck out, and activated the Mountain Shaking Force. The powerful vibrational force blasted his opponent's sword away. With a flick of his wrist, the sword that had been bent due to the collision instantly straightened. Driven by the powerful force, he slashed out.
Azure and gold intertwined as the sword skill, Windcutter, was activated.
With a slash, as if lightning had streaked across the sky, his opponent's body was cleaved in half by Chu Mu's sword, from head to hip. Chu Mu's left arm had also been pierced by his opponent's sword, leaving behind a bloody hole.
Injuries were unavoidable. This was also the best way for Chu Mu to kill his opponent after many simulations and calculations.
Although it had been a long time since he had been injured like this, Chu Mu's expression did not change. It was as if the arm that had been pierced was not his.
Feeling the Sword Origin within his body and the Spiritual Sense within his spiritual world, he found that there was not much left. If he entered the sixth floor, he might not even be able to defeat his first opponent. Thinking of this, Chu Mu spoke, ending the challenge.
The Heaven Sundering Sword Pagoda seemed to have a spirit and was able to understand Chu Mu's meaning.
The wound on his arm healed under the power of the Heaven Sundering Sword Pagoda. The Sword Origin and Spiritual Sense that he had used up were also quickly recovered. Immediately after, Chu Mu's surroundings changed. It was complete darkness. Suddenly, rays of light appeared from the void. They were rays of Sword Light one after another.
There were a total of nine Sword Light. They revolved around Chu Mu's body and spun at a high speed. They spun faster and faster, and Chu Mu's eyes could not distinguish them.
Chu Mu did not understand the situation. He only looked at the Sword Light that was spinning at such a high speed that even his Spiritual Sense could not distinguish them. He subconsciously shouted, "Stop!"
Suddenly, the Sword Light that was spinning at such a high speed seemed to have a mind of its own and began to slow down. Finally, one of the nine Sword Light stopped right in front of Chu Mu. The other eight Sword Light disappeared into the void one after another, returning to nothingness and disappearing.
"Could this be the Sacred Sword that I obtained?" He stared at the sword that was floating in front of him. It was an ancient sword that was about the same length as the Sword of Return. It was light purple in color, and there were white arcs of electricity leaping around the sword. They formed a single entity, like a bolt of white lightning. The white lightning emitted a tyrannical power, and there seemed to be crackling sounds.
He reached out and grabbed the sword hilt. Suddenly, the white arcs of electricity gathered into a bolt of lightning and blasted towards Chu Mu's palm, as if it was resisting.
"A mere Lower Grade Sacred Sword …" His eyes shone with a sharp light. The Law of Lightning was activated, and he ignored the white lightning. He gripped the ancient sword's hilt tightly, preventing it from escaping.
The Lower Grade Sacred Sword struggled a few times, but it was unable to move. It seemed to understand that it was powerless to resist. Its master was very powerful, and he was qualified to own it.
"Violent Thunder. This name is quite imposing." The white lightning on the ancient sword receded, revealing two ancient words on the ancient sword. They were the words' Violent Thunder ', the sword's name.
Chu Mu had killed a few Sword Of Gojoseon before, and he had obtained their Sacred Swords.
The power of a Sacred Sword wasn't something an Emperor Grade Sword could compare to. The difference between each grade was very obvious.
A Lower Grade Sword Of Gojoseon was suitable for a Lower Grade Sacred Sword. Only then could it unleash its full power. A Middle Grade Sword Of Gojoseon was suitable for a Middle Grade Sacred Sword, and a High Grade Sword Of Gojoseon was suitable for a High Grade Sacred Sword.
Although there were several Sacred Swords in the Interspatial Ring, there were Lower Grade, Middle Grade, and High Grade Sacred Swords, but Middle Grade and High Grade Sacred Swords weren't suitable. Those few Lower Grade Sacred Swords were just ordinary Lower Grade Sacred Swords. They couldn't be compared to Violent Thunder.
Although the Violent Thunder Sacred Sword was a Lower Grade Sacred Sword, it was the best among the Lower Grade Sacred Swords. The moment the Violent Thunder Sacred Sword submitted to Chu Mu, Chu Mu knew where the power of the Violent Thunder Sacred Sword lay. It doubled the might of the Law of Lightning.
The Law of Lightning was already very powerful, and it was obvious that the doubled might would be more tyrannical. Sword skills that were integrated with the Law of Lightning would also be affected, and their might would increase.
"You will be following me for a period of time." Chu Mu raised the Violent Thunder Sacred Sword and said. In an instant, a scabbard appeared and wrapped itself around the Violent Thunder Sacred Sword.
Carrying the Violent Thunder Sacred Sword, Chu Mu's figure faded, and he appeared outside the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda.
"He's out." Wang Wei's gaze was suddenly attracted, and his pupils rapidly shrank. He stared at the sword in the light purple scabbard in Chu Mu's left hand. The sharp aura emitted from the sword let him know that it was a Sacred Sword.
"I remember that he didn't carry a sword when he went in." Wang Wei's thoughts raced. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the sword in Chu Mu's left hand was taken from the Interspatial Ring or a reward from the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda.
Although the value of a Sacred Sword wasn't low, it was still possible to get one if one wanted to. However, the light purple Sacred Sword in Chu Mu's hand gave off an extraordinary feeling.
Seeing Chu Mu turn around and walk over, Wang Wei took a few steps forward and hurriedly said, "Junior Brother Chu, you're out. This sword …" He pointed at the ancient sword in Chu Mu's hand.
"Take a guess." Seeing the curiosity in Wang Wei's eyes, Chu Mu suddenly smiled mischievously and said two words. Wang Wei almost went berserk, but when he thought about his own strength and estimated that he was inferior to Chu Mu, he could only smile awkwardly.
After obtaining a suitable sword, Chu Mu was in a good mood. Under Wang Wei's lead, he registered his identity and obtained the right to live in the Sword Pagoda. This meant that from now on, Chu Mu was a disciple of the Heaven-Sundering Academy.
Along the way, Wang Wei did everything he could to ask Chu Mu about the origin of the ancient sword in his hand. This wasn't a secret, so Chu Mu simply told him that he obtained the ancient sword after challenging the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda.
For a moment, Wang Wei's heart was in turmoil.
It had to be known that Chu Mu was the same as him. They had both just broken through to the Blessed Realm and had just become a Sword Of Gojoseon. Wang Wei originally thought that everyone had just become a Sword Of Gojoseon and that it was a new beginning. No matter how strong Chu Mu was, he wouldn't be much weaker than him. But now, it seemed that his thoughts were wrong.
Chu Mu's strength definitely far surpassed his. Even Liu Ye couldn't compare to him. Perhaps even Senior Brother Cang Mo couldn't compare to Chu Mu.
Wang Wei quickly left to look for Liu Ye and Cang Mo. He planned to tell them that Chu Mu had become a Sword Of Gojoseon and had successfully challenged the Heaven-Sundering Sword Pagoda and obtained a sacred sword as a reward.
Chu Mu didn't know what Wang Wei was thinking. The Sword Pagoda he obtained stood beside the lake. The lake water was blue, and it reflected the blue sky and white clouds of the small world. It had a unique flavor.
The Heaven-Sundering Academy's valley was much larger than the Sky Soaring Academy's. The distance between the Sword Pagoda was very far. At the very least, there was no other Sword Pagoda within a radius of ten thousand meters.
Facing the blue lake water that was several thousand meters wide, Chu Mu's sword was like a white thunderbolt that split the air. A sword ray wrapped in white thunderbolts instantly shot into the lake in the distance.
When it landed, the lake water burst out and splashed dozens of meters. Each drop contained the power of white thunderbolts, and it was extremely tyrannical.
After a few more slashes, Chu Mu stood beside the lake and tried to use the ancient sword.
