High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 391 - 313: Since Ancient Times, Sages Have Been Lonely—Epiphany, a New Trump Card!

Chapter 391: Chapter 313: Since Ancient Times, Sages Have Been Lonely—Epiphany, a New Trump Card!

To this day, that force still hasn’t dissipated, even severely limiting the exercise of spiritual power.

Among the three of them, Ling Heyuan was the strongest, being a Second Forging Grandmaster.

Normally, his spiritual power could cover several kilometers around, but here, it has been weakened to a pitiful level. As a martial arts grandmaster, even when he exerted his full power, it could only cover several hundred meters, not even a kilometer.

"It’s quite a coincidence. The collapse of the Tower of Power was also due to Su Mu, wasn’t it? Maybe this time..."

"Just a coincidence. I don’t think a Fourth Level Martial Artist could have caused the Ruined Tower to collapse, and not long ago, even two grandmasters couldn’t find the reason, let alone Su Mu, who hasn’t become a grandmaster yet."

As the words fell, another person nodded, deeply agreeing.

"How long has Su Mu been inside?"

"Almost half an hour. The pressure within the last kilometer range is unbearable even for a grandmaster. The two grandmasters who came before stayed for less than an hour before turning back. I guess Su Mu must be about..."

The voice suddenly stopped.

Only because in the next moment.

Suddenly, in the darkness, a majestic sword momentum surged forth like a raging river, splitting the clouds covering the sky in two.

The aftermath of the sword momentum transformed into a fierce wind, instantly stirring up a small sandstorm on the scene.

Their hair fluttered wildly, and their robes flapped chaotically.

In front of this sword momentum, whose distance was unknown, the three grandmasters of Gaoshan City felt their hair stand on end, as if needles were pricking their backs, and their hearts suddenly alerted with imminent danger.

Just as someone opened their mouth to speak.

Suddenly, an even more terrifying sharpness flashed by.

The sense of imminent danger surged to its peak, transforming into a premonition of demise that instantly filled their minds.

Splashing sounds continued ceaselessly.

The clothes on the three grandmasters were instantly shredded into rags, and their faces and bodies bore numerous blood marks with blood splattering out.

The relaxed expression they had while discussing Su Mu earlier abruptly disappeared, and they instinctively stepped back several steps, then exchanged glances.

In an instant, the scene plunged into a deathly silence.

Long after, one of the silent trio finally swallowed and spoke with a trembling voice.

"Su Mu’s sword momentum is truly terrifying..."

"This is at least a sword momentum of great success. Is it seventy percent, or even higher? I have no doubt he could kill me with a single strike with such momentum!"

...

Huff-----

The sharpness in Su Mu’s eyes flashed and disappeared. He exhaled lightly, revealing a satisfied smile on his face.

"An unexpected surprise. Though I didn’t directly break through to the peak, I am a step closer, already very near. Now I can sense the invisible bottleneck above the sword momentum."

Above the peak sword momentum is the embryonic form of transforming sword momentum into sword intent.

It is said that in the past millennium, only one Human Great Sage has touched this realm, although what he touched was the embryonic form of sword intent.

"The first person in the millennium sword dao?"

Su Mu formed a palm into a blade.

The air around his fingertips twisted as an invisible fearsome blade took shape.

But this was neither the blade qi Su Mu nurtured nor the Golden Essence Qi, but akin to the method used by the Celestial Martial Saint illusion, purely the Rule of Gold.

One is pure sword momentum...

Or rather, Su Mu’s spiritual light is currently at the level of the Overlord Blade Martial Saint illusion’s final strike, a battle that Su Mu has been replaying these days.

Everything flowed so naturally.

The sword momentum in his hands is so sharp that even Su Mu himself could feel its extremity.

"Even if this time ends in vain, the gains are still significant. This strike is not inferior to the Overlord Blade Martial Saint illusion’s final condensed Rule of Gold saber."

"Moreover, this strike does not belong to the power of rules. It does not conflict with the power of rules in attack and can be integrated into other sword techniques."

"This can be my new trump card."

Su Mu’s eyes brightened. In the confrontation with the Overlord Blade Martial Saint illusion, he held nothing back, employing everything like Crystal Transformation, Secret of Power, including that move, displaying his trump card in front of others.

Even though he cut down the Martial Saint illusion with one strike, Su Mu believes the Overlord Blade Martial Saint would sense something, perhaps informs of it through some means.

Having gained another trump card gives a reassuring sense.

Su Mu immediately let the sword momentum dissipate, knowing this wasn’t the time to delve into it. He suppressed the joy in his heart and continued forward.

"Actually, this place is also an excellent location for training spiritual power."

"My spiritual power is greatly restricted..."

In the sea of consciousness, the eyes of Su Mu’s crystal human form opened, spreading his condensed spiritual power.

Uh...

Su Mu was momentarily stunned by this attempt. Through spiritual power, he saw several pitiful grandmasters at the edge of the Land of Yellow Sands, over ten kilometers away.

"Luckily..."

"I sheathed my blade in time, or else I would have hurt those grandmasters..."

"They didn’t notice my spiritual power, so let’s act as if nothing happened."

Su Mu retracted his spiritual power, deciding to act like the awkward event earlier never happened, as the three didn’t detect his spiritual probing. Bringing it up later would only damage their image.

Better to act as if nothing happened.

"The sudden epiphany delayed a bit of time, let’s keep moving."

Su Mu continued forward, feeling the reaction within him between the Fixed Star Body Refinement Art and the shadow of the fist growing increasingly intense. Yet, he suppressed the operation of the Fixed Star Body Refinement Art and did not activate any qi and blood power, walking purely with the flesh.

"If I had time, staying here for cultivation would be really good."

"This is already an excellent gravity cultivation room; the gravity now is approaching tenfold, I think."

Even Gaoshan City doesn’t have a cultivation room of such high standards, only places like the Provincial Martial Arts Association or the War Zone do, and even there, not many. These cultivation rooms are open to martial arts grandmasters, even great grandmasters.

Su Mu murmured with a relaxed tone.

Recalling the days of merely fourfold gravity, which almost made him wish for death.

Now, the nearly tenfold gravity doesn’t burden Su Mu at all; instead, it feels refreshing. The slight pressure on his skin’s surface, the slight tingling, like someone massaging him. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"But it’s just a tickle, not really a massage, not enough strength."

"The Fixed Star Body Refinement Art, when perfected, allows the flesh to roam the void and traverse the galaxy. Perhaps it’s not an exaggeration, but really possible!"

Su Mu’s heart burned with excitement. The first transformation made his flesh comparable to a Seventh Level grandmaster-level weapon, the second transformation to an Eighth Level Grandmaster Weapon, would the third compare to a Ninth Level Martial Saint Level?

And how powerful would the subsequent transformations be?

But soon, the burning in Su Mu’s heart cooled.

Because now he only possessed the first half of the Fixed Star Body Refinement Art, the cultivation techniques on it only instructed the first three transformations, without subsequent techniques.

At this moment, Su Mu felt some regret for the first time. He regretted delivering that strike, though it broke open the Relic Tower, it also halved the Fixed Star Body Refinement Art.

"And the ’Crystal Visualization Technique’ is also incomplete, with subsequent parts only up to the second transformation."

Su Mu’s heart was gripped with some urgency, though the Fixed Star Body Refinement Art might be obtainable from other Giant Ruins, the shadow in his dream world vanished completely, making it tough to acquire further cultivation techniques.

"Thinking of it, the purple illusion was generous, offering a complete ’Secret of Power’."

As he continued deeper, the gravity continued to rise and ascend, with tenfold gravitation as a landmark, each additional fold felt worlds apart.

Until the outline of that Tower of Power appeared, within a kilometer range, it felt almost close to twentyfold gravity for Su Mu.

Feeling the tingling across his body, Su Mu was satisfied, even having a strange thought that this was where he belonged.

"Not bad, this would barely qualify as a massage now."
