"Swoosh!"
The blunt weapon missed its target and landed heavily on the ground, causing the soil to crumble. The attacker was a black-faced man with a ferocious expression. He was not holding a sword in his hand, but a rotting and rusty iron rod. It was not an exaggeration to call it a blunt weapon.
His speed was too slow, at least in Lin Muyu's eyes, it was ridiculously slow.
"Clang!"
The Xuanyuan Sword swept across and cut the iron rod in half. Lin Muyu took the opportunity to advance and kicked the man's abdomen with her battle boots. The black-faced man groaned and fell to the ground, spitting blood.
Before he could even raise his head, the sharp blade of the Xuanyuan Sword was already at his neck. Lin Muyu said indifferently, "Speak. Why did you attack me without saying a word?"
The black-faced man looked at her angrily but did not speak. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down a few times as he stammered something incomprehensible.
"What do you mean?" Lin Muyu was surprised.
However, the black-faced man grabbed the blade of the Xuan-Yuan Sword. Blood seeped out of his palms, and he pressed his throat against the blade. With a "puchi" sound, the sword had already pierced through his throat, and he lay there twitching.
Lin Muyu was perplexed. She flicked the blood off the blade of her sword. The man had not said a word, and it was obvious that he wanted to speak, but he did not. Could he be … mute?
Without thinking too much, Lin Muyu squatted down and searched the black-faced man's body. Apart from an iron rod and ragged clothes, he had nothing on him. His body was thin and it was obvious that he had been malnourished for a long time. Lin Muyu could see that the man's stomach was empty. He had been starving for a long time.
"How could this be …"
He was very surprised. According to his master, wasn't the Eternal Sword Domain a place where experts gathered? The man in front of him seemed to be at most a Hierarch, but he had almost starved to death. He would have starved to death if he had not sent him off.
"Forget it …"
Lin Muyu sheathed the Xuanyuan Sword and continued walking forward. Her goal was not to kill people in the Eternal Sword Domain, but to find the strongest power in the Eternal Sword Domain.
…
The two sides of the mountain range were uneven, and the Eternal Sword Domain was filled with a deathly aura. There was barely any greenery. Along the way, Lin Muyu would occasionally see a few trees with leaves that had been gnawed clean. Perhaps it was an animal that had eaten the leaves, or perhaps it was a human or a god.
Although gods could go without food for a long time, it did not mean that they could go without food for thousands of years. Generally speaking, a god's physical strength would be affected if they did not eat for half a year.
"Rustle …"
Stepping on the fallen leaves, Lin Muyu was thinking about the secrets of the Eternal Sword Domain. Suddenly, a few auras rippled in the distance. They were filled with murderous intent.
Looking into the distance, the hills on both sides of the valley were silent. However, Lin Muyu knew that there were a few people lying in ambush in the dead shrubs. Moreover, their target was her. These people's cultivation levels were not low. Lin Muyu could not see through one of them. The Eternal Sword Domain was indeed an ominous place.
"Whoosh!"
Before she could get within a hundred meters, an arrow was suddenly shot at her at an incredible speed.
Lin Mu Yu's speed was even faster, a blood-colored Holy Martial Power appeared on both of his arms, and he swept his fist horizontally to knock the arrow away. At the same time, a few other arrows also flew over, the strength of the arrows was very strong, to the point that Lin Mu Yu's fist was slightly numb. These people's arm strength and archery skills were all above Wei Chou's!
"Hong!"
Lin Muyu turned into a bolt of lightning and flew to the top of the mountain. Looking down, she saw a few people dressed in black put down their bows and pulled out their swords. They looked at her with hostility. Their swords glowed with a cold light. Clearly, they were much better equipped than the previous person. All of them were gritting their teeth.
"Who are you people?" Lin Muyu asked.
"The people who will kill you!"
One of them said with a sinister voice. His sword turned into a ray of light and flew over.
In an instant, the seven people in the bushes attacked at the same time. They came from different angles, but their intentions were the same.
Lin Muyu used the Falling Star Steps. Her figure suddenly flipped in the air. Sword Qi slashed at two people and she kicked one of them. At the same time, a cold wind attacked her from behind. She quickly turned around and blocked it with her sword. "Peng!" Golden light shot out in all directions. The shock numbed her arms, and she retreated a little. The attacker was the one with the strongest aura.
He forced Lin Muyu back a few steps. He was not in good shape either. Blood even flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Kill him. Don't let him go!"
Several people shouted.
Lin Muyu was also determined to kill. Her Xuanyuan Sword turned into a bolt of lightning and swept across two of her opponents. At the same time, she punched out with her iron fist and pierced through the fifth person's abdomen. She kicked the sixth person and sent him crashing into the field, screaming incessantly. In just a moment, five of the seven were killed, one was severely injured, and the other was injured.
"Who … who are you?!" Among the seven people, the voice of the strongest person was trembling.
Lin Muyu raised her eyebrows and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is who you are."
"I …" He had almost given up resisting. Lin Muyu was ruthless. If he resisted, he would probably die.
After a few seconds, he said, "My name is Zhang Wei. I am a member of the Hunter League."
"Hunter League?"
"Yes."
Lin Muyu walked forward and took the longsword from Zhang Wei's hand. She asked calmly, "What is the Hunter League? Can you tell me?"
"The Hunter League is just an alliance, but it is very powerful. It covers almost the entire Eternal Sword Domain. Who … who are you?" Zhang Wei's eyes flashed with fear and panic.
"Don't worry. If you don't want to kill me, I won't kill you." Lin Muyu's eyes were calm. She said, "Now, tell me. What is the Eternal Sword Domain? Who are the people? What are the forces? Tell me in as much detail as you can."
Zhang Wei frowned. "You don't even know these things. Are you … from another world?!"
Zhang Wei's face was full of shock. "Impossible … Impossible … The door to the Eternal Sword Domain has been closed for thousands of years. It's impossible for someone from another world to come here."
Lin Muyu said coldly, "You haven't answered a single one of my questions."
"Oh … this …" Zhang Wei sorted out his thoughts and said, "I don't know where to start. The Eternal Sword Domain has existed for tens of thousands of years. It is a world where gods, demons, and humans coexist. The resources here are extremely scarce, and there are less than four hours of sunlight every day. As a result, most of the plants have died. The gods who were exiled to the Eternal Sword Domain fought and killed each other. In the end, most of them hid themselves. A few of the strongest ones built cities and raised the humans. They continued to grow plants that required less sunlight for food."
"Wait a minute."
Lin Muyu said, "I heard Master say that the gods who were exiled to the Eternal Sword Domain are all gods. Where did the humans come from?"
Zhang Wei smiled. "Gods and their descendants are considered humans without any cultivation. They are all mortals. The Sinful Gods who were left behind in the Eternal Sword Domain don't care about the lives of their descendants. After they give birth to them, they abandon them like a pair of worn-out shoes. That's how the humans came to be."
"What about you? How did you come to this world?"
"I …"
Zhang Wei frowned and said, "I was one of the last gods to be exiled to the Eternal Sword Domain. In my hometown, I had a woman I loved. Later … later on, her father did not agree to our marriage. Instead, he betrothed her to another person with great power. She agreed, so I slaughtered her entire clan in a fit of rage. That's why I was exiled. Oh, right. Her father was the Divine King there. "
Lin Muyu grinned. "You really do all sorts of evil."
Zhang Wei said, "I've been exiled for so many years. I've always regretted what I've done. However, there's no turning back. I can only struggle on in the Eternal Sword Domain."
"Alright, let's talk about the Hunter's Alliance. What's the deal with this alliance?"
Zhang Wei pointed at a blood-red emblem on his shoulder and said, "Do you see this? Food is extremely scarce in the Eternal Sword Domain. That's why everyone kills each other and treats their enemies as food. The Hunter's Alliance is a hunting alliance. We don't attack each other. On the contrary, we work together like a pack of wolves to attack powerful targets and hunt them down. It's just that …"
Zhang Wei looked at the pile of corpses around him and smiled bitterly. "It's just that we failed this time. We've waited here for a day and a night for you. I didn't expect you to be so strong."
Lin Muyu said, "In that case, I met a person who was holding a blunt weapon. Even when he chose to commit suicide, he didn't manage to say a complete sentence. What's going on?"
"In that case, he must be a loner." Zhang Wei said calmly, "People who live alone in the wilderness of the Eternal Sword Domain. These people eat anything. Animal corpses, grass roots in the soil, insects in the river. Loners are also one of our hunting targets. Moreover, they're used to living alone. It's possible that they haven't spoken for 10,000 years. If you live alone and don't speak for 10,000 years, you'll also lose the ability to speak."
Lin Muyu, "…"
Zhang Wei frowned and looked straight at him. "I've told you everything I know. Can you tell me who you are now? You should be someone from another world. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to kill five hunters so easily. Even the lords of those cities might not have the ability to do so. Who are you? "
"That's right. I am indeed someone from another world. I'm a god. I've come to the Eternal Sword Domain with only one goal, and that is to search for the power of the Sword Domain. Do you know about the Sword Domain?"
"The power of the Sword Domain …"
Zhang Wei frowned and said, "I'm not afraid that you'll be disappointed. I've been in the Eternal Sword Domain for thousands of years, but I've never heard of it."
Lin Muyu didn't say anything. Instead, she reached out and removed the hunter's emblem from Zhang Wei's arm. She crushed it and said, "From now on, you'll follow me. I need a guide here. Perhaps I can take you out of the Eternal Sword Domain in the future."
"You can take me out? Who are you? "
Lin Muyu turned around and smiled brilliantly. "My name is Lin Muyu. I'm a righteous god of the six realms outside the Eternal Sword Domain. I'm a Titled Martial God, and I wield the strongest Sacred Martial Heavenly Dao. Do you have any more questions?"
Zhang Wei, "…"
