Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 943 - 941: Cloud Movement
Whoosh!
A sinister bloodlight shot out from the head of the Red Blade Demon Emperor, hurriedly escaping into the distance. It was none other than the true spirit of the Red Blade Demon Emperor!
Rumble!
The Eye of Illusion descended, releasing a terrifying and surging suction from within. Almost instantly, the true spirit of the Red Blade Demon Emperor was sucked into it!
"No!!!"
The Red Blade Demon Emperor roared in unwillingness. He had been rampant on the Black Eye Continent for a long time, considered a figure of some standing, never imagining that he would die here today.
Puff!
The true spirit of the Red Blade Demon Emperor was extinguished, turning everything into nothingness!
Whoosh!
Chu Ming descended from mid-air, his face pale, putting away the Eye of Illusion and taking a deep breath!
"The Eye of Illusion is truly a Sacred Artifact!"
To be honest, this was the first time Chu Ming had used the Eye of Illusion in battle, but its mighty power shocked him deeply. Without using the Eye of Illusion, even if he unleashed the Infinite Sword Body, it would be impossible to kill the Red Blade Demon Emperor!
It could be said that once he used the Eye of Illusion, it was rare for anyone in the Emperor Realm to compete with him!
Whoosh!
Chu Ming picked up the Storage Ring of the Red Blade Demon Emperor, as well as the Blood Saber!
"So much Elixir of Eternal Youth!"
When Chu Ming's soul power probed into the Storage Space of the Red Blade Demon Emperor, his face lit up with joy. There were many treasures in the Storage Ring of the Red Blade Demon Emperor, but what caught Chu Ming's attention the most were the forty-three jars of Elixir of Eternal Youth!
Whoosh!
The Red Blade Demon Emperor was dead, and no one else stood in the way of Chu Ming collecting the Elixir of Eternal Youth. Although his battle with the Red Blade Demon Emperor was extremely fierce, almost altering the ground around them, the Elixir of Eternal Youth remained unaffected.
Having collected all the Elixir of Eternal Youth here, the elixirs in Chu Ming's Storage Ring reached an astonishing eighty-four jars. If submitted, they would earn sixty-eight thousand Contribution Points, making it an unparalleled accumulation even within the Inner Palace!
"It's time to go back; only a few days remain before my duel with Gu Hu!"
Chu Ming stood up, thinking quietly. Originally, he planned to stay a few more days on the Black Eye Continent, but having obtained enough Elixir of Eternal Youth from the Red Blade Demon Emperor, he quickly decided to return to the Nine Elements Dao Palace.
Whoosh!
Chu Ming took out his Identity Token, injecting spiritual power into it. At once, an illusory Teleportation Array appeared before him. As he stepped into it, a terrifying suction force emerged!
Buzz!
Chu Ming's vision changed, and he found himself already at the Nine Elements Dao Palace!
Turning into an amber stream of light, Chu Ming flew toward his residence. In the Nine Elements Dao Palace, there was no physical Task Hall; submitting tasks required only using the Identity Token to report them, and someone would come to collect them, providing great convenience for the disciples in the palace.
On the way, Chu Ming had already submitted the task to the Nine Elements Dao Palace. By the time he arrived at his residence, a middle-aged Steward in a gray robe was already waiting there!
"Are you the one submitting the task for collecting Elixir of Eternal Youth?"
The gray-robed middle-aged Steward's eyes shone like lightning, as if countless electric sparks darted in his eyes; an ordinary person would feel eye pain just looking at them!
"Yes!"
Chu Ming nodded slightly, and with a wave of his sleeve, over eighty jade containers appeared before him. Each container held one jar of Elixir of Eternal Youth, totaling eighty-four jars!
"Eighty-four jars of Elixir of Eternal Youth, not bad!"
After verifying with no mistakes, the middle-aged Steward looked at Chu Ming, his face showing a trace of admiration. Collecting eighty-four jars of Elixir of Eternal Youth at once was not something an ordinary person could achieve.
"I've transferred the Contribution Points to you, and here are the Middle Grade Spirit Crystals!"
The gray-robed middle-aged Steward swiped his right hand on his Identity Token, adding a sum of Contribution Points to Chu Ming's Identity Token. Then, with a wave of his arm, several boxes of Middle Grade Spirit Crystals appeared on the ground!
Chu Ming collected the Middle Grade Spirit Crystals, while the gray-robed Steward left silently!
Back in his courtyard, Chu Ming swallowed a Dragon Tiger Pill, then began cultivating the fifth technique of "Wind Rolls the Clouds." The first four techniques of "Wind Rolls the Clouds," though powerful, contained only the rhythm of the wind. In the fifth technique, "Cloud Movement," not only the rhythm of the wind but also the killing force of the clouds was comprehended.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
For a while, Chu Ming's courtyard was filled with multiple shadows, and numerous invisible sword lights covered the entire courtyard, leaving shallow sword marks on the ground!
...
Time passed slowly; seven or eight days went by in the blink of an eye. During these days, Chu Ming cultivated "Cloud Movement" by day and consumed Dragon Tiger Pills by night to train his Star Undying Body! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Chu Ming estimated that with another month of cultivation, his Star Undying Body could reach the late stage of the First Layer!
On this day, while cultivating "Cloud Movement," Chu Ming suddenly had an epiphany. Threads of electric light flashed through his mind, prompting him to open his eyes wide!
"So that's how it is!"
Chu Ming murmured to himself as he calmly swung the Infinite Sword forward. At that moment, the wind was gentle, the clouds were calm, with only a faint Sword Aura slicing through the void!
Schwhizz!
A pure white light, like a drifting cloud, passed in front of Chu Ming. Hidden within it was a lethal force!
"Cloud Movement, with its mysterious clouds and the rhythm of the wind, converging to unleash terrifying destructive power in an instant!"
Chu Ming thought to himself!
...
The duel between Chu Ming and Gu Hu was originally a small matter, but through the spread by those with an interest, it became known to everyone in the Nine Elements Dao Palace!
Although Chu Ming was only an Outer Palace disciple, he was a disciple of Tianyuan Patriarch, the new student King of this cohort and a Feudal Emperor-level genius, making him quite famous in the Nine Elements Dao Palace.
On the other hand, Gu Hu was a renowned powerhouse among the Inner Palace disciples, ranking among the top one hundred of them, and a high-ranking member of the Cyan Heaven Sect, almost untouchable in the Inner Palace!
One was a new King, the other an established powerhouse, making their duel a focal point for everyone!
However, despite Chu Ming's momentum and his ferocity demonstrated in the Ancient Yuan Illusion Realm, most Inner Palace disciples did not think he would be the winner in this duel!
Finally, amidst the anticipation of many, the day of the duel arrived!
In the morning, Chu Ming slowly opened his eyes, a faint starlight flickering under his pupils. The Star Undying Body was imperceptibly altering Chu Ming's physique; even through introspection, Chu Ming could clearly see his bones shimmering faintly!
