Chapter 19
The Blade's Momentum?

No wonder he could kill Mo Sha. With such swordsmanship, even a martial artist at the eighth or ninth level could be slain!

For a moment.

The three who had been filled with despair, saw a glimmer of hope in their eyes once more.

“Ding!”

“You used the 《Innate Sword Scripture》 and consecutively killed six demonic path experts, triggering a critical hit, and earning a hundredfold reward!”

The system’s notification echoed in his mind.

Luo Mu’s lips slightly curled upwards.

His luck today was truly excellent. The hundredfold rewards, a rare occurrence, had already appeared twice today!

Buzz!

Another ten strands of Innate Sword Qi appeared in his body!

The total number had reached eighty!

Like the 《Mortal Sword Art》, the 《Innate Sword Scripture》 also relied on killing living beings, absorbing death intent, and condensing sword qi.

“What are you standing there for, don’t you want to avenge your brother?”

Luo Mu looked at Mo Luo, who was still holding the head, and his lips slightly curled upwards.

“Earth Grade Mid-Tier… Martial Skill!”

The grief on Mo Luo’s face had entirely vanished, leaving only deep seriousness.

Judging from this person’s attire.

He seemed to be merely an outer palace disciple.

But even Cheng Qing Man, an inner palace genius, had not cultivated a mid-tier Earth Grade martial skill. An outer palace disciple not only cultivated one, but he had also cultivated it to great perfection!

This was simply absurd!

Had Chang Le Academy been turned upside down?

Were the outer palaces strong and the inner palaces weak?

Taking a deep breath.

Mo Luo placed the head he held aside and slowly stood up.

His eyes gradually filled with killing intent.

What if it was an Earth Grade Mid-Tier?

He was at the True Aperture Realm, eighth level!

He was six minor realms higher than this person!

He might not be without a chance of victory.

Besides.

Even if he couldn’t defeat him in the end, there was still the elder. The elder would definitely intervene!

“Brat, pay for your brother’s life!”

Mo Luo roared!

The meteor hammer in his hand swung, generating a gust of wind. For a moment, sand and rocks flew everywhere.

Luo Mu nodded slightly.

This person was much stronger than the previous one. Just his momentum was extremely impressive!

Even when hunting a rabbit, a lion uses all its strength.

He wouldn’t underestimate anyone, always remaining vigilant against any possibility of a mishap.

Therefore, he struck with all his might!

“Separation Sword Style!”

Strands of sword qi emanated from Luo Mu’s body.

They instantly clashed with Mo Luo!

“Good!”

Luo Mu preferred this kind of head-on clash. The feeling of muscle tremors and bone-rattling collisions was truly exhilarating!

Clang, clang, clang!

Within a few breaths, they had exchanged blows over ten times.

Countless sparks flew in the air!

The place was also filled with dust and smoke.

Bang!

A sword slashed out!

Mo Luo retreated frantically, his eyes twitching as he looked at the meteor hammer in his hand.

This sword technique, even among mid-tier Earth Grade martial skills, should be considered top-notch, right?

He had to remember that his meteor hammer was made of the finest hundred-refined materials.

But now, it was actually damaged and about to shatter due to colliding with that sword qi!

“Retreat any further, and you will die.”

A calm voice came from the dust.

Along with the snow-white sword light!

Clang!

Mo Luo instinctively used the meteor hammer to block, but this time, the meteor hammer couldn’t hold its ground and shattered directly.

The long sword also struck Mo Luo’s shoulder.

Thick death intent surged in, devouring his vitality.

Causing Mo Luo’s face to change drastically.

He retreated again.

But Luo Mu had already gripped the sword in both hands.

The sword qi around him surged, gradually covering the blade, transforming into a terrifying sword qi of a full fifty meters!

“Elder! If you don’t act now, I’m done for!”

Mo Luo clutched his right shoulder, anxiously shouting!

From the brief exchange, he had completely understood that he was definitely no match for this person!

This swordsmanship was simply too ferocious and domineering!

He had been on the defensive the entire time!

“Overlord Sword Style!”

“One Sword Without Life!”

“Slash!”

Luo Mu’s mind was clear, completely unaffected. He only wanted to unleash this one sword!

Among all the techniques in the 《Innate Sword Scripture》, the Overlord Sword Style could be considered the strongest. It fused all sword qi into one sword without life!

The attack range was vast!

Everything within sight would be shattered!

The fifty-meter sword qi thundered down.

The speed was extremely fast.

Mo Luo’s body was affected by death intent and he couldn’t dodge in time.

He could only instinctively use both hands to block!

And the result was self-evident.

Boom!

The ground trembled and a very long sword mark appeared.

Mo Luo was also split in two and lay on the ground.

His tenacious life force prevented him from dying immediately. He twitched for a while before finally losing all signs of life.

“不愧是霸刀式!”

Luo Mu exclaimed in admiration.

Even a True Aperture Realm, eighth level, could be directly slain with one sword, without any suspense!

Whew!

After Mo Luo’s death, the death intent in his body also turned into gray mist and flowed into Luo Mu’s body.

Compared to the death intent provided by others.

Mo Luo’s was significantly more!

“Ding!”

“You used the 《Innate Sword Scripture》 and killed a True Aperture Realm, eighth level warrior, triggering a critical hit, and earning a threefold reward!”

The notification sounded.

How much?

Luo Mu was stunned, wondering if he had heard incorrectly!

Up to this point.

The highest he had ever gotten was a hundredfold.

He had never surpassed that!

But now, a threefold had actually appeared!

Boom!

He didn’t have time to think. Extremely vast swordsmanship insights suddenly flooded his mind!

The death intent in his body also began to increase crazily.

It was as if he had really killed three hundred demonic path warriors like Mo Luo!

Death intent continued to transform into Innate Sword Qi!

Eighty-one, eighty-two… Soon, it reached the limit – one hundred strands!

And the 《Innate Sword Scripture》 had finally reached its peak!

“Swordsmanship has reached perfection!”

Luo Mu’s heart was filled with excitement.

To be honest, he hadn’t expected perfection to come so quickly.

In his estimation, he wouldn’t be able to complete it today, as there weren’t many demonic path warriors left alive when he arrived here.

“System, you’re amazing!”

Luo Mu secretly gave a thumbs-up.

At the same time, he was frantically absorbing the swordsmanship insights in his mind.

The threefold gain was truly enormous.

So much so that he couldn’t absorb it all quickly at once.

Moreover, as he continuously absorbed the insights, Luo Mu suddenly felt a strange sensation. It was as if the sword in his hand had life.

It had a tendency to gradually merge with him.

“This can’t be…”

Luo Mu’s pupils suddenly contracted.

The legendary — Sword Intent!!!

He remembered that during martial skill class, the teacher had said that when a person cultivated a martial skill to perfection, they continued to diligently cultivate it without stopping.

Then there was a chance to come into contact with the legendary martial dao intent!

Gritting his teeth, Luo Mu calmed down.

Because now wasn’t the time to think about this. He remembered that before this demonic path warrior died, he had shouted something about an elder.

Clearly, there was still a powerful person out there!

He immediately looked around, maintaining his vigilance, but no one appeared.

Was he being tricked?
