Wind stopped!
In Chu Mu's eyes, there was only Wang Feng. It was as if the entire world was swallowed by darkness. Everything disappeared, leaving only him and Wang Feng facing each other. Both of them were accumulating their strength. The next sword strike would decide victory and defeat, life and death.
The fourth level of the Sword Qi Realm and the eighth level of the Sword Qi Realm!
It was originally an insurmountable chasm, but in this instant, it made people forget about their cultivation.
The people around them had already forgotten to breathe, to blink, and to think. In their eyes, there were two swords, two swords that emitted different auras, facing each other.
In the next second, it would be a fatal blow!
Suddenly, an unexpected aura appeared. It was as if a gust of wind had blown in from the heavens. It descended arrogantly and tore apart the sky. The darkness retreated, startling Chu Mu and Wang Feng.
"It's Senior Brother Xiao Qianfeng …"
"Senior Brother Xiao Qianfeng is here. Oh right, today seems to be the day of his bet with Chu Mu."
When Xiao Qianfeng's aura entered, Chu Mu and Wang Feng's confrontation was disturbed. Under the influence of their auras, they both scattered.
"Xiao Qianfeng, what is the meaning of this?!" Wang Feng looked at Xiao Qianfeng and asked in a deep voice.
"You can go back now." Xiao Qianfeng glanced at Wang Feng. His gaze was as sharp as a sword as he said coldly.
"Xiao Qianfeng, although we are not in the same courtyard, we are both inner court disciples. Could it be that you still want to protect this outer court disciple? You don't mind being my enemy? "Wang Feng's expression was stern.
"You are not worthy of being my enemy." Xiao Qianfeng's tone was neither fast nor slow. He stood side by side with Chu Mu. When he looked at Wang Feng, Wang Feng almost vomited blood. His face was ashen as he glared at Xiao Qianfeng, but he couldn't say a word.
This was because Wang Feng had fought with Xiao Qianfeng before. Indeed, he wasn't Xiao Qianfeng's opponent. Until now, Xiao Qianfeng's sword was still fresh in his memory.
"Fine, Xiao Qianfeng. You want to protect this outer court disciple, right? Fine, I hope you have the ability to protect him forever." Wang Feng fiercely nodded. He felt sullen and angry in his heart. He dispersed the sword aura and fiercely sheathed his sword. Then, he glared at Chu Mu menacingly. Then, he snorted angrily, turned around, and strode away.
After Wang Feng left, Chu Mu slowly exhaled, and his tense muscles relaxed.
"Many thanks, Senior Brother Xiao." He turned to Xiao Qianfeng and cupped his hands in salute.
"It's nothing." Xiao Qianfeng said indifferently. His eyes contained a trace of fanaticism, and his cold tone also carried a trace of passion. "Looking at your aura just now, could it be that you've mastered the Killing Breeze technique?"
As he spoke, Xiao Qianfeng looked at Chu Mu with eyes filled with anticipation. He really hoped that Chu Mu would give an affirmative answer.
Once again, he was amazed by Xiao Qianfeng's breadth of mind. This kind of person only cared about the sword, pursued the pinnacle of sword techniques, and even the pinnacle of sword dao.
"Senior Brother Xiao, you've also mastered the Killing Breeze technique, right?" A trace of a smile hung on the corner of Xiao Qianfeng's mouth as he slowly said. The words' Senior Brother Xiao 'came from the bottom of his heart.
"I used thirteen days to master the Killing Breeze technique. What about you?" The fanaticism in Xiao Qianfeng's eyes became even more obvious.
"Thirteen days." Chu Mu replied. He was referring to Dacheng.
"Alright, since we've both mastered the Killing Breeze technique within thirteen days, then it's my loss." Xiao Qianfeng said. His words shocked Chu Mu, and also shocked the surrounding outer court disciples.
"Did you hear that? Chu Mu and Senior Brother Xiao have both mastered the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique. This is too inconceivable."
"Yeah, the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique, which was said to have remained unmastered for decades, has actually been mastered by someone else. If Senior Brother Xiao is a sword maniac, then it's still acceptable. But Chu Mu, an outer court disciple, actually mastered the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique."
"Could it be that Chu Mu is the same as Senior Brother Xiao? Is he really a sword genius?"
"Since they've both mastered the Killing Breeze technique, why did Senior Brother Xiao say that he lost?"
"Three years ago, I, Dacheng of the Soaring Cloud Sword Technique, chose the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique. I only managed to master the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique. During these three years, I didn't stop cultivating the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique. After I obtained the Dazzling Breeze technique, I started cultivating it a few days earlier than you. Theoretically speaking, I should have mastered the Killing Breeze technique earlier than you. But in reality, I used the same amount of time. This time, I'm not as good as you. " Xiao Qianfeng said slowly. However, the fact that he said this time was very obvious. His loss was only temporary.
"This time, you've won. You can contribute the complete Sword Technique of the Breeze technique to the Sword Faction. An Intermediate Sword Technique can earn you quite a lot of contribution points. It should be very useful to you." Xiao Qianfeng said indifferently, "I'm looking forward to you reaching the eighth level of the Sword Qi Realm as soon as possible. Then, you'll be able to fight me with your full strength."
"That day won't be too far away." Chu Mu said. His battle intent also spread out.
"Alright." Xiao Qianfeng said in a low voice. The fanaticism in his eyes became even more intense. He couldn't hide his excitement as he turned around and left with large strides.
Looking at Xiao Qianfeng's back, Chu Mu's gaze became even sharper. He walked towards the Sword Pavilion with large strides.
"Dazzling Breeze … Could it be one of the killing moves of the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique?"
"It should be. It's precisely because the Dazzling Breeze technique is missing that no one has mastered the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique. However, Senior Brother Xiao unexpectedly obtained the Dazzling Breeze technique and completed the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique. That's why he and Chu Mu were able to master it." A smarter disciple guessed.
"That's great! I'm about to master the Soaring Cloud Sword Technique. At that time, I'll be able to choose the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique."
"In your dreams. Didn't you hear what Senior Brother Xiao said? The complete Sword Technique of the Breeze technique is an Intermediate Sword Technique. At that time, unless you have enough contribution to the Sword Faction, you won't be able to choose it."
… …
"There's really a flaw in the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique!" The Sword Pavilion's elder looked at the white paper that Chu Mu handed to him and his body trembled. A terrifying aura surged from his body, causing Chu Mu's vision to darken. It felt as if his body was being torn apart. He couldn't bear it and retreated with a pale face.
"Yes, the complete Sword Technique of the Breeze technique should be an Intermediate Sword Technique." Lin Yun took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in his heart. At the same time, he was guessing what level the elder's cultivation had reached. Just a trace of the elder's aura was enough to make him feel as if he was being torn apart. Compared to Wang Feng, it was like comparing heaven and earth.
"Middle-tier sword art …" The elder closed his eyes, seemingly in deep contemplation. After a while, he opened his eyes once more, "That's right, the complete Breeze Swordsmanship is indeed a middle-tier sword art. Have you made up your mind to contribute the Dazzling Breeze Swordsmanship to the Sword Faction?"
"Yes."
"Hmm, very good. Using the Dazzling Breeze technique to upgrade the Sword Technique of the Breeze technique from a Low Level Sword Technique to an Intermediate Level Sword Technique. Then, I'll count it as your contribution." The elder looked at Chu Mu with admiration and said with a smile, "Contributing a Low Level Sword Technique will earn you ten contribution points. For an Intermediate Level Sword Technique, you can earn a hundred contribution points or you can choose to learn an Intermediate Level Sword Technique. What do you choose?"
"I want the contribution points."
"Take out your Disciple Sword Token."
Lin Yun took out his Disciple Sword Token. It was grey in color and symbolized that he was an outer disciple. It was a finger long and wide and looked like a small sword. There were two ancient characters engraved on it.
The elder took the Disciple Sword Token and walked into the inner room. After a while, he came out and handed the Disciple Sword Token back to Chu Mu, "Now that you have a hundred contribution points, you can go to the Internal Affairs Hall and exchange them for some medicinal pellets to increase your cultivation speed. Remember, when the time comes, you can tell them my name."
"Thank you, elder." Lin Yun put away the Disciple Sword Token.
"I'm very curious. The Dazzling Breeze technique should have been obtained by Xiao Qianfeng. He didn't come to contribute, but instead, he asked you to contribute." The elder's eyes flashed with curiosity.
"Elder, this is an agreement between me and Senior Brother Xiao. I can't talk about it in detail. Please forgive me." Chu Mu almost broke out in cold sweat as he said simply.
"Is that so? Next time, I'll ask Xiao Qianfeng. " The elder looked at Chu Mu suspiciously, but didn't pursue the matter. This made Chu Mu let out a sigh of relief, "Oh right, the Breeze Sword Technique is an Intermediate Level Sword Technique. With your current cultivation, it will be very difficult for you to learn it. You can choose to learn another Low Level Sword Technique."
When Chu Mu heard this, he immediately agreed. How could he let go of such an opportunity?
He immediately entered the first floor of the Sword Pavilion and started to choose.
The Soft Cloud Sword Technique was a Low Level Sword Technique focused on defense. As for offense, he already had the Flying Cloud Sword Technique and the Breeze Sword Technique.
Immediately after, Chu Mu found a Low Level Movement Technique. He quickly flipped through it and memorized it. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Chu Mu completely memorized the Low Level Movement Technique.
