Chapter 893
Above the Primordial Beginning
Su Mu watched as the points on the panel disappeared rapidly.
But this time, none of the techniques he practiced improved.
Primordial True Form Technique, Horizontal Mountain Body Refining Technique, Heaven and Earth Creation Method...
All the techniques, martial arts skills, and crafts remained unchanged.
All the points he had painstakingly accumulated were wasted.
But Su Mu knew in his heart that not a single drop of sweat was shed in vain.
Not a single number is wasted.
He expended countless points, but in return, he gained invaluable cultivation experience.
As for the Primordial True Form Technique, he has already cultivated this technique to perfection.
Spending points on it will not improve its level.
But that means Su Mu spent countless more years cultivating.
Although he didn't break through his cultivation level, his understanding of these martial arts techniques changed.
All the martial arts techniques began to collide and merge in its mind.
Just like when forging divine weapons, these martial arts techniques are equivalent to rare and precious materials.
They melted, disintegrated, and then re-integrated and changed within Su Mu's consciousness.
Rare and precious materials, when combined with weapon-making and weapon-refining techniques, can be transformed into divine weapons.
What about these martial arts techniques?
I don't know how much time has passed.
Su Mu gradually discovered the most fundamental aspects of martial arts.
He discovered a common thread in all martial arts techniques: power.
Just like the strokes of a character, no matter how complex the characters are, they are ultimately composed of strokes such as horizontal, vertical, left-falling, and right-falling strokes.
The martial arts techniques are also the same.
Ultimately, it all comes down to power.
The power of the physical body is power, the power of the laws of heaven and earth is power, and the power of the spirit is also power.
Never leave its origins.
Any martial arts technique is nothing more than the accumulation and application of power.
origin.
In Su Mu's mind, it was as if strokes of calligraphy appeared one after another.
He used these strokes to piece together a completely new martial art.
This martial art has no name, but it was tailor-made for him.
boom!
Just as he grasped this principle.
A bright light suddenly flashed within his inner universe.
The light quickly spread to every corner of the microcosm.
Luo Anning, Xiang Xiaoyuan, Dongfang Liuyun and the others all raised their heads and looked at the sky with some surprise.
They had no idea what had happened.
But they felt that the world before them seemed different.
Ever since Su Mu moved the Great Thousand Worlds to his own Small World, everyone had the feeling that the whole world was shrouded in a layer of fog.
The colors weren't very vibrant, and everything felt a bit lifeless.
That's because Su Mu's microcosm is not as perfect as the universe where the Great Thousand World once existed.
But now, that vague feeling has vanished without a trace.
The world before my eyes seemed to have been washed clean, becoming incredibly vibrant.
Even the sky seemed to have cleared up considerably.
They even felt that their breathing became easier.
Everyone's face lit up with surprise.
"Su Mu has become stronger again."
Dongfang Liuyun said with emotion.
He didn't know how many times he had said that sentence.
When he first met Su Mu, their strength was not very strong. Even though they were known as geniuses, they were not top experts.
After that, Dongfang Liuyun watched Su Mu grow stronger step by step.
Until now.
He no longer knew how high Su Mu had risen to.
In short, it was a height that he could hardly reach.
But he felt no jealousy, only joy.
He was happy for Su Mu.
The stronger Su Mu becomes, the more these people will rise in rank and enjoy a meteoric rise in status.
"I remember Su Mu was already at the peak of the Primordial Beginning Realm, right? Didn't those guys from the Heavenly Road say that the peak of the Primordial Beginning Realm is the limit of martial arts?"
Mo Xuesong asked with a puzzled look.
The group exchanged glances and couldn't help but laugh.
"That is the limit of martial arts, but not Su Mu's limit."
Their gazes turned to where Su Mu was in seclusion, their eyes filled with anticipation.
I wonder how strong Su Mu will be after he emerges from seclusion this time.
…………
Beyond Su Mu's microcosm.
The Great Xuan silently traversed the void.
Zhao Baiqi, Huo Tu, Chi Mingtang, Qian Gongliu, Yuan Huaizhou, Zhang Yunzhou and others gathered on the deck, all of them wounded.
Even with the protection of the Earth-rank warship Da Xuan, they were still injured to this extent, which shows how fierce the battle they had experienced was.
Even now, traces of the past remain all over the Da Xuan ship.
The ship's sides were covered in sword marks, and there was a hole in the deck.
"This is our limit."
Zhao Baiqi's gaze swept over the crowd, and he slowly said, "We were lucky to escape this time, but if there is a next time, the Great Xuan will probably disintegrate."
"In three years, we have destroyed a total of eleven Xuan-rank warships and two Di-rank warships of Huang Tiandao. This is an unimaginable achievement."
Zhang Yunzhou said, "Ordinary Earth-rank warships simply cannot do these things."
We've done our best.
He was a weapon refiner and knew the warship's condition best.
He knew very well that the fact that the Great Xuan had been able to hold out until now was a result of Su Mu's unparalleled weapon-refining skills, which were beyond imagination.
If they were on an ordinary Earth-rank warship, they would probably have been wiped out long ago, leaving not even a trace.
Even now, the Great Xuan has reached its limit.
Zhao Baiqi is right, the Great Xuan can't withstand another battle.
"Huang Tiandao is searching for us all over the world like a madman. Once our whereabouts are exposed, we will be doomed."
Chi Mingtang asked, "When will Su Mu be able to emerge from seclusion?"
Everyone fell silent.
This is a question without an answer.
Since the day Su Mu handed over the Great Xuan to them, he has been in complete seclusion.
For three years, they had neither seen Su Mu nor received any news from him.
Their only connection with Su Mu was that after each raid on Huang Tiandao, they would place the spoils into a teleportation array in the cabin of the Da Xuan ship.
That teleportation array will send things to Su Mu's microcosm.
"Su Mu's seclusion in his own little universe is probably not going so smoothly."
After a long while, Qian Gong Liu spoke up, “Think about it, when has he ever taken this long to break through before?”
There's been no progress for three years. Who knows what went wrong with his breakthrough and he might have died?
"fart!"
Huo Tu roared, "Qian Gong Liu, I think you're just hoping Su Mu dies! I've known for a long time that you're jealous of him!"
"So what if I'm jealous of him? Aren't you all jealous too?"
Qian Gong Liu curled his lip in disdain, "Jealousy is one thing, but I don't wish for his death. What good would it do me if he died?"
Even if he's going to die, he should die by my hand.
"Alright, stop arguing."
Zhao Baiqi stopped the two of them and said in a deep voice, "Su Mu is about to break through to the perfect Tai Chu Realm this time."
No one knows what lies beyond the Primordial Realm, and Su Mu has no reference points.
He was going to forge a completely new path on his own, and I don't need to elaborate on the difficulties involved.
Even if it fails, that's normal.
We shouldn't be thinking about his success or failure now, but rather about ourselves.
His gaze swept over the crowd.
"Before Sect Master Su went into seclusion, he instructed us to collect rare and precious materials. Now, given our current situation, we are no longer able to fight Huang Tiandao. If Su Mu's breakthrough is affected because we cannot supply him with rare and precious materials, we cannot bear that responsibility."
Zhao Baiqi said in a deep voice.
"Even if the Great Xuan is finished, we're still here, aren't we?"
Huo Tu said, "Does the establishment of the Great Xuan Ship mean we won't know how to fight?"
"We're at least Primordial Realm experts, you know!"
"You think you're so great?"
Qian Gong Liu said sarcastically.
The Primordial Realm is indeed a powerful force; they are among the top beings on their respective planets.
But now, they are facing no ordinary enemy.
Huang Tiandao came from the Heavenly Realm, and their strength is beyond imagination.
Over the past three years, they have fought against Huang Tiandao and discovered that some of the experts in Huang Tiandao are exceptionally powerful, and their martial arts seem to be different from their own.
In short, they have an overwhelming advantage over them.
If it weren't for the Great Xuan, they would never have achieved such brilliant results in the past three years.
They all understood that without the Great Xuan, they would be utterly helpless against Huang Tiandao.
"You're just afraid of dying, but I'm not!"
Huo Tu glared at Qian Gong Liu and said, "Even if I die, I will bite off a piece of flesh from Huang Tiandao."
Su Mu has placed such great trust in us; I certainly can't just cower and do a sloppy job!
"Huo Tu!"
Zhao Baiqi frowned.
That was a bit too much; it insulted everyone involved. None of them intended to just brush it off.
How have you all spent the last three years?
They fought against Huang Tiandao almost every day.
Every person faces the crisis of death countless times.
There are no cowards among them.
Everyone did their best to fulfill Su Mu's request.
It's not that they're afraid of dying, but that they've pushed themselves to the limit.
What good would it do to leave the Great Xuan and fight to the death now?
There will be no gain other than a wasted life.
Even with their deaths, the rare and precious materials Su Mu needed remained unavailable.
"Zhang Yunzhou, do you have a way to repair the Great Xuan?"
After reprimanding Huo Tu, Zhao Baiqi turned his gaze to Zhang Yunzhou and asked in a deep voice.
"No."
Zhang Yunzhou shook his head and said, "My weapon-refining skills are worlds apart from Sect Master Su's."
If it were an ordinary Earth-rank warship, I could barely give it a try.
However, the Da Xuan is far more sophisticated than ordinary warships. If I were to forcibly attempt to repair it, it would probably backfire.
unless--"
"Unless what?"
Zhao Baiqi hadn't even asked that question yet.
suddenly.
With a deafening roar, the Great Xuan ship shook violently.
Caught off guard, everyone nearly fell off the deck.
As they stood up and looked ahead, they saw a massive, overwhelming figure appear in their field of vision.
The figure grabbed the Great Xuan Hao with one hand, forcefully pulled it out of the void, and flung it away.
The Great Xuan flew away in a whirl.
Zhao Baiqi and the others roared and flew to their respective positions, doing their utmost to stabilize the Great Xuan.
"It's Tang Jun!"
Zhang Yunzhou exclaimed in shock.
The enormous figure was none other than Tang Jun, who had once been defeated by Su Mu.
The opponent manifested a massive Dharma form, making even a Great Xuanhao appear extremely small in comparison.
Tang Jun dared to appear in front of the Great Xuan again because someone was backing him up.
Everyone's attention was drawn to a person standing in the void behind Tang Jun.
Although the man was of medium build, standing in the void, he gave the impression of being larger than the nearby planets.
That was the aura released by a powerful being.
The other party was also the leader of Huang Tiandao, and his cultivation was even higher than Tang Jun's!
Two powerful beings at the peak of the Primordial Realm found the trail of the Great Profound Ship and pulled it out of the void with a single move.
The concealment techniques that Da Xuan Hao was so proud of have become completely useless.
With a deafening roar, warships appeared from all directions, completely surrounding the Da Xuan.
The crowd secretly counted at least twenty warships around them.
With so many warships, not to mention the two powerful experts at the peak of the Primordial Realm, even without them, the Great Xuan would definitely be no match.
In an instant, everyone's heart sank to the bottom.
Even when the Great Xuan was intact, they couldn't possibly defeat these people.
Moreover, the Great Xuan is already badly damaged.
Huang Tiandao was truly enraged by them.
Despair filled everyone's hearts.
With such power, even if Su Mu were here, he would probably be doomed to lose.
unless--
Everyone shook their heads with wry smiles.
How could that be?
They had no idea what realms beyond the Primordial Realm were.
If it were possible to break through, Su Mu would probably have already done so long ago.
"Gentlemen, it has been a pleasure to fight alongside you for the past three years."
Huo Tu cupped his hands in greeting to everyone, not even bypassing his mortal enemy, Qian Gongliu.
"Today is a day of certain death, so I, Huo, will take my leave first."
Having killed so many of Huang Tiandao's men, I've had enough to die for.
He laughed heartily and then leaped off the Great Xuan.
The Great Xuan is already badly damaged and cannot withstand another battle.
If you force it to fight again, it will completely disintegrate.
Huo Tu had developed feelings for the Great Xuan, and he was unwilling to see it disintegrate, so at this moment, he chose to fight alone.
"Huo Tu, do you think you're the only one who's not afraid of death?"
If anyone's going to die, it'll be me first.
"My cultivation level is higher than yours!"
Qian Gong Liu laughed heartily, and, arriving late but arriving early, launched an attack on Tang Jun before Huo Tu could react.
Tang Jun looked at the two of them, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"You two ants, you don't even deserve to die by my hand! Let Su Mu come out and face his death!"
He shouted and threw a punch.
Boom!
Qian Gong Liu and Huo Tu fell down at an even faster speed than when they rushed out.
Both men simultaneously spat out blood and crashed heavily onto the deck.
They tried to get up, but only managed to get halfway up before falling back down.
at this time.
Zhao Baiqi and the others completely ignored them, and instead leaped up and unleashed their most powerful attacks.
boom!
"Su Mu, come out here and face your death!"
Tang Jun looked impatient.
He was violent and didn't respect anyone.
The only person he could consider a rival was Su Mu.
Before defeating Su Mu, he didn't even bother killing these ants.
He had an idea in his mind.
That is because these ants had witnessed his predicament, and he was determined to kill Su Mu in front of them, and then kill these ants to vent his hatred!
Boom!
Zhao Baiqi, Chi Mingtang, Yuan Huaizhou, Zhang Yunzhou, and others followed in the footsteps of Qian Gong Liu and Huo Tu.
They both coughed up blood and fell to the ground.
Faced with the overwhelming power of a Tai Chu Realm Perfection expert, even if they joined forces, they would not be able to withstand a single blow from the opponent.
"Su Mu, get out here!"
Tang Jun roared, "Are you afraid of me?"
"If you don't come out now, I'll tear them apart one by one!"
Tang Jun reached out, and his enormous hand reached out to grab the Great Xuan.
A faint light rose from the Great Xuan, blocking Tang Jun's hand several feet away.
Tang Jun gave a ferocious sneer and tightened his grip.
The light on the surface of the Great Xuan was cracked as it was squeezed.
The light screen protecting the Great Xuan was instantly covered with dense, spiderweb-like cracks, as if it might shatter at any moment.
The crowd was both anxious and furious, and they couldn't help but spit out blood again.
They frantically poured their power into the formation of the Great Xuan.
But the Great Xuan is like a sieve full of holes, its power constantly leaking out, and only two or three tenths can be gathered together.
The Great Xuan is now like a person who is seriously injured and waiting to die. No matter how much power is poured into its body, it will no longer be able to retain that power.
Everyone's face showed sadness.
In their hearts, the Da Xuan was no longer just a warship, but a companion with whom they shared life and death.
Now, however, they are unable to protect their own companions.
"what!"
The crowd let out painful roars.
Tang Jun laughed heartily; the more pain his enemy suffered, the happier he became.
"Su Mu, you coward!"
Tang Jun laughed loudly, while continuing to exert force with his hands.
Click.
The protective light of the Great Xuan finally shattered, and Tang Jun's palm landed on the ship's side.
In an instant, countless fragments flew off the Da Xuan, and cracks began to appear all over the warship.
Tang Jun stretched out his other hand, grabbed the Great Xuan Hao with both hands at one end and the other end, and was about to exert force to break the Great Xuan Hao completely.
"No!"
Zhao Baiqi, Huo Tu, Chi Mingtang, Qian Gongliu, and others roared with tears streaming down their faces.
Ignoring their own injuries, they desperately unleashed their power.
But they were already at their limit, and had just been seriously injured. The attacks they launched at Tang Jun were like mosquito bites, only scratching his itch.
"Su Mu, I'd like to see how long you can keep hiding!"
Tang Ju roared, his palm emitting a blinding light.
Click, click.
The Great Xuan could not withstand the immense power and was about to break in half.
"Tang Jun, wasn't the beating you received last time enough?"
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
Accompanied by the sound, a figure suddenly appeared on the deck of the Da Xuan.
He stepped onto the deck and flicked his sleeve lightly.
With a loud bang, Tang Jun's two hands were instantly thrown back. (End of Chapter)
