Calmness was the only emotion in Chu Mo's heart.
No matter how many levels he had passed in the Ancient Stairway Tower …
No matter how many praises and flattery he had received …
No matter how many people wanted to become his subordinates, subordinates, and even Dao slaves …
He was very calm and was getting calmer.
In the eyes of outsiders, Chu Mo's calmness was not only a reflection of his unfathomable depth, but it was also the best help for the young genius of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect to reach a higher cultivation realm.
However, to Chu Mo himself …
It was just an imitation.
Challenging the Ancient Stairway Tower …
In nearly two years, he had reached the 76th level with his mid-stage Dao Breaking cultivation level. That was indeed impressive.
However, it was insignificant compared to collapsing the Burial Tablet Cliff.
That was one of the reasons why he could be calm and become calmer.
The second reason was that the more he imitated that big shot's calmness, the more addicted he was.
At that moment, he felt that …
Even though he was outstanding before the Burial Tablet Cliff, he was so shallow and laughable.
What was there to pretend for?
What was there to be proud of?
It was best to calm down and do his own things.
"That big shot should be like that and become more and more impressive …"
Chu Mo sighed and felt that he had a long way to go. He needed to work harder.
However, that sigh was very annoying to Xun Song, who had just come out of seclusion and heard about Chu Mo's challenge.
What kind of person would frown and sigh after doing something heaven-defying?
A hypocrite.
The word hypocrite applied to Chu Mo, who had said that he was not interested in the Ancient Stairway Tower and then went to challenge it in the blink of an eye, was extremely fitting.
Chu Mo, who had just come out of seclusion, had completely forgotten that he needed to wake up his master. His face was filled with an inexplicable smile as he bowed to Chu Mo with a Dao salute.
"Senior Brother, I heard that not only did your cultivation level improve a lot, but you also passed the 76th level of the Ancient Stairway Tower. I have a whole new level of respect for you."
Chu Mo hurriedly returned the bow and said calmly, "Senior Brother, you flatter me. I just made up for my shortcomings with diligence and luck …"
"Haha, Junior Brother, you're too polite." Xun Song laughed very happily. "It just so happens that I, your senior apprentice-brother, have just come out of seclusion and can be considered to have made some gains. Why don't I have a spar with you, junior apprentice-brother, so that we can mutually verify our gains. It can also be considered a discussion of the Dao as fellow disciples."
"Senior Brother must be joking." Chu Mo was still calm as he said with a smile, "Senior Brother's ability is something that Junior Brother can never compare to. How could …"
"Junior Brother, if you're too humble, you'll become hypocritical. Come!"
As soon as he finished speaking …
Xun Song lightly struck out with his palm towards Chu Mo's chest.
However, while it seemed to be light and powerless, this palm strike was Xun Song's summary and interpretation of his own cultivation path.
Not only that …
He had even added the battle experience he had gained from fighting the Demons on the Human-Demon Battlefield into his palm.
What kind of person was Chu Mo?
He was someone who had surpassed Xun Song on the Ancient Stairway Tower …
But when it came to fighting Demons, he was a newbie.
In Chu Mo's eyes, the light and gentle palm had become a solemn and stirring scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. The solemn and stirring murderous intent was like a sharp sword that pierced straight into his heart.
At this moment …
He suddenly felt a tinge of remorse.
When he first challenged the Ancient Stairway Tower, he had thought of hiding his abilities because he had attracted some hatred during his first challenge …
But in the following battles, he forgot about this point while he was immersed in his own thoughts. It was only when he exited the tower that he realized it.
In addition, Xun Song was in seclusion. After a few times, he gave up on hiding his abilities.
However, at this moment, he regretted it.
Because …
"He wants to destroy my Daoist heart!"
He was angry because his fellow disciple was ruthless and vicious!
He sneered because he had a life-saving trump card that his master had left for him!
However, in the end …
"What would the big boss do in such a situation …"
Chu Mo retreated step by step.
As he retreated, he started to imagine how the inconspicuous big boss beside the Buried Tablet Cliff would do it.
After retreating nine steps, his eyes lit up and his expression became calm again. At the same time, he pushed his palm towards Xun Song.
This palm strike was also light and gentle, but it was unpredictable.
In terms of cultivation, there was a huge difference between him and Xun Song, who was half a step away from Heaven's Equal.
In terms of battle, he could not compete with Xun Song, who had trained for a long time on the Human-Demon Battlefield.
Fortunately, this was a spar.
The spar gave him the ability to counterattack. That was his understanding of the Heavenly Dao.
All the true disciples of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect had the right to cultivate a mystic technique.
This mystic technique could raise one's understanding of the Heavenly Dao to the limit of the major realm.
That was why Chu Mo's Dao Stele, which was dozens of feet tall, could scare everyone.
"When faced with such a situation, the big boss will definitely take the opportunity to train himself. He won't be bothered by meaningless emotions like anger or sneering …"
Even though there was a huge difference in cultivation and battle strength …
There was one thing that he and Xun Song were identical in.
Since we both have Dao Steles of similar height, why should I be afraid of you?
With this thought, Chu Mo gradually calmed down and focused all his attention on controlling the Void Origin.
At this moment, he was in the state of challenging the Ancient Stairway Tower.
Xun Song, who he was facing, was smiling, but his heart was filled with anger and his blood was boiling.
"You say you can't beat me?
"If you really can't beat me, shouldn't you take a palm strike from me and back off?
"Why are you so focused on fighting me?
"Hypocrite!"
…
Fortunately, he still retained a part of his rationality. After all, his master, Elder Mu, did not have the power to defy the rules of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect.
However, there were some things that couldn't be done as you wished.
When he realized that Chu Mo's mastery of the essence of time was almost on par with his mastery of the essence of time ….
His arrogant heart had suffered the sharpest blow.
"How is this possible!?"
After exchanging more than twenty moves with Chu Mo, these four words became a demonic hand baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, grabbing the most sinister thing in his heart!
Chu Mo was calm.
But no matter how calm he was …
When he sensed his opponent's killing intent in a spar, he could no longer remain calm.
However, just as he was about to use his life-saving trump card …
An aura descended on the sparring ground.
Feeling this aura, Xun Song felt as if he was struck by lightning and immediately retreated.
Chu Mo's reaction was similar to Xun Song's, but he retreated a few more steps. After stopping, he still adopted a defensive stance and was even more vigilant than when he was defending against Xun Song's killing intent.
"M-Master!"
"Elder Mu?"
Whether it was Xun Song or Chu Mo …
They had never seen Elder Mu like this.
His face was expressionless.
His eyes were cold.
He did not seem to have any aura …
But they felt an indescribable storm brewing in Elder Mu's body.
"If you haven't had enough, continue."
Hearing this, Xun Song's face turned pale.
Chu Mo pondered for a moment, then bowed to Elder Mu and said in shame, "It's all my fault for being too impudent. I tried to spar with Senior Brother, but in the end … Elder Mu …"
Before he could finish his sentence …
The sound of a slap rang out out of nowhere.
Chu Mo subconsciously touched his own cheek …
He discovered that Xun Song's right cheek was swollen.
