High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late
Chapter 489 - 360: Beyond the Ninth Heaven Lies Su Mu, Underlying Currents Surging, Phantom Demon!
In the Martial God State, within the Martial God Domain, as Su Mu moved his thoughts, the dazzling azure color flickered on the all-encompassing Martial God Wheel.
Soon, Su Mu’s five senses rippled like water, instantly passing through thousands of branches, and his perspective continuously rose, overlooking this part of the world.
On each hundred-meter ancient tree, every drop of dew hanging on the thousands of budding branches was clearly visible, including the varying degrees of trembling of each drop of dew. By a huge rock on the ground, a small Fierce Beast cautiously poked its head out of a hole to observe the ground, everything within control.
A thought moved.
The azure color on the Martial God Wheel calmed, a green light flickered, and then the intention became wind, soaring and expanding upwards, he clearly felt two large creatures approaching him.
One was entirely brown, covered in rock-like scales, a tail swaying like a great dragon when moving at high speed, boom, boom, boom, where it passed, hundreds of meters of ancient trees were instantly broken, then fell crashing down.
This was a giant lizard like a small mountain, it was Su Mu’s first time seeing such a giant lizard with his own eyes, inevitably reminding him of the dinosaurs of the Earth in his previous life, long extinct.
The other large creature was entirely dark blue, covered with thick, steel-like bristles the size of an adult’s arm. As it moved, each spider leg was like a divine soldier’s blade, lightly landing, effortlessly leaving pits of indeterminate depth on the iron-hard ground, it was a dark blue hideous giant spider.
"This is the true Water Power, the true Wind Power!"
"Just in time."
"A divine soldier unsheathed must draw blood..."
"Let’s use the two of them as offerings to the Martial God State!"
Far unknown kilometers away, Ximen Gu, holding a sword in his left hand, turned to look in a certain direction, a grave expression on his face, even at such a distance, he could still feel the earth tremble and a faintly spreading imposing pressure.
These two auras, regardless of which one, would not be inferior to the previous red-haired giant bear, perhaps even surpass it.
One alone was enough to be quite tricky at his peak, let alone facing both together, the danger was unimaginable.
"In such a situation, I can only avoid its edge... But in this kind of scenario, even a moment’s hesitation in being encircled, it won’t be easy to escape."
Yet the next moment, his brow relaxed.
Ximen Gu shook his head, the person over there wasn’t Ximen Gu, it’s not him about to be encircled by Fierce Beasts, unsure of life and death.
But rather those two Fierce Beasts who must have eaten bear hearts and leopard galls.
Daring to provoke a monster like Su Mu.
In Ximen Gu’s mind, that scene of the dazzling ice river involuntarily came to the surface, "Phoenix Cry, a terrifying Sword Dao!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
At this moment, he could already foresee those two creatures being instantly killed by Su Mu, then calmly breaking open their skulls and extracting the Blood Cores.
"Truly a monster..."
"With strength like a demon, coupled with virtue, he is truly a gentleman’s sword."
"Only such a person is worthy of my Ximen Gu to follow."
"It’s time to leave, this will be a trial for me, and I will walk out of here alive."
Ximen Gu tightened his left-hand grip on the Ancient Sword, turned away, his eyes already clear, even more resolute than before, struggling on the edge of death with a severed arm, having witnessed that earth-shattering slash of Su Mu’s.
He had not yet regained his former strength, but he had been reborn in spirit.
Ximen Gu took a step.
Boom!
A thunderous sound came from behind, and then a terrifying gale instantly arrived, his Qi and Blood involuntarily circulated, just to resist this sudden onslaught.
"Origin of Wind?"
"So fast, already one is dead."
While his tone was filled with shock, there was also a trace of doubt. In the battle at Celestial Cloud Mountain, although Su Mu had displayed Wind Breathing, he clearly hadn’t yet touched upon the Power of the Origin of Wind.
But in this sudden gale, Ximen Gu unmistakably felt an intensely dense Power of the Origin of Wind.
Just as the words fell from his lips.
Another rumbling sound reverberated.
Ximen Gu paused abruptly, his expression filled with reverence and awe.
"The third Power of Origin, mastering three Powers of Origin at once!"
"First ice, then wind, now it’s fire!"
Even...
At this moment, Ximen Gu could faintly feel this Power of the Origin of Fire was even more majestic and solid than the previous two powers.
"That slash probably isn’t even his strongest martial arts technique."
Upon speaking, even he found it incredibly hard to believe that such an earth-shattering slash wasn’t Su Mu’s limit, but the evidence was irrefutable, reason told Ximen Gu this was indeed the case.
"There’s more than one heaven outside..."
"Beyond the Nine Heavens, there’s still Su Mu."
...
"Is it over already?"
"Two surely isn’t enough."
"Or perhaps I held back too much..."
Under the amplification of the Martial God State, Su Mu had just casually thrown two punches, not deliberately using much strength. Even so, with Su Mu restraining his strength to this extent, those two large creatures couldn’t endure.
As Su Mu’s thoughts moved, the Martial God Wheel in the void went silent, Crystal Transformation, Martial Arts Gate, and Immortal Cells were lifted, and after Su Mu exited the Martial God State, he looked regretful, somewhat unsatisfied.
Then the scene as Ximen Gu envisioned finally appeared.
Seeing Su Mu’s right palm rise and fall.
The massive heads, each the height of two to three stories, broke open, and with a grasp in the void, Su Mu retrieved two Blood Cores, nearly human height, each engraved with different textures but both having five Golden Patterns.
