After the defense was corroded by Zhan Ye, the Horror Wolf’s skin defense was significantly reduced. Chu Mu was very patient in controlling his three soul pets, engaging the Horror Wolf in a battle of attrition.
The Horror Wolf was in a weak state, but it wasn’t easy to kill this Ninth Stage Commander. At several points, it almost escaped.
“Wood Finger Prison!” The Demon Tree Warrior’s fingers burrowed into the ground. The increasingly slow Horror Wolf could no longer dodge this skill, and was firmly imprisoned by the resilient Wood Finger Prison, restrained to the ground!
Zhan Ye’s Ink Armor Thorn once again pierced the body of the Horror Wolf, lowering its defense to an even lower level!
“Ice Crystal Sword Array!”
The Ice-Feathered Spirit Lingbing rotated, and countless tiny ice crystals ford ice swords above its head. Each ice sword was ten ters long and filled with an awe-inspiring aura as they floated in mid-air.
“Stack!”
Within the thirty ice swords, another layer of Ice Seal Swords was ford. Under the control of the Ice-Feathered Spirit, the sixty ice swords flew towards the struggling Ninth Stage Horror Wolf!
The Ice-Feathered Spirit was the most critical damage dealer, and the damage on the Horror Wolf was mostly caused by the Ice Attribute Skills.
This ti, Ice-Feathered Spirit delivered the fatal blow to the Horror Wolf. After the sixty ice swords fell completely, the Horror Wolf lost all its strength to struggle. In the end, it was torn open by Zhan Ye’s furious Sky-Splitting Claw, and fresh blood flowed from its body…
“Demon Tree Warrior, maintain control. Zhan Ye, continue attacking!” Chu Mu’s years of battle experience told him that he should never be careless until they could confirm the enemy’s death.
Sure enough, just as Zhan Ye was about to cut the Horror Wolf’s throat, it suddenly sprang up, attempting to kill Zhan Ye in retaliation.
The Demon Tree Warrior’s roots were already prepared. Before the Horror Wolf could fully jump, countless roots bound its body. More sharp barbs erged from these roots, cutting deeply into the Horror Wolf’s skin!
As long as they broke through the defense, Demon Tree Warriors could use Life Siphon!
The Horror Wolf was already weak, and after the Demon Tree Warrior’s frenzied siphon, it beca even more powerless, finally falling down among the countless roots laid by the Demon Tree Warrior in despair.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit’s ice attribute skills once again launched a series of attacks on the Horror Wolf. In the end, Zhan Ye used the Sky-Splitting Claw to tear open the Horror Wolf’s throat…
This ti, the Ninth Stage Horror Wolf was completely dead.
Its battered body began to twitch slightly, followed by stiffness due to the effects of the ice attribute skills. Finally, it showed no signs of life.
“It’s finally dead.” After confirming that the Horror Wolf was completely dead, Chu Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Co here, all of you, and take this dicine.” Instead of imdiately dealing with the corpse of the Horror Wolf, Chu Mu summoned all his soul pets and gave them the expensive dicines to heal their injuries.
In this battle, Chu Mu had spent nearly 3 million in dicine, which was almost his entire monthly expenditure on potions.
In the Seventh-level Mist Realm, instances of being in danger were rare, and Chu Mu could always calmly deal with dangerous soul pets while deliberately avoiding those he could not defeat.
However, when facing soul pets that were one or two levels above his own strength, Chu Mu truly experienced the feeling of being on the brink of death.
All of Chu Mu’s soul pets had been in battle, and his Soul Power was completely consud. His soul pets were all injured to varying degrees.
The White Nightmare Demon was injured the worst, as it had fought the Horror Wolf face to face for a long ti while at full strength. But the Resentnt Condensation skill allowed it to maintain its combat power, making the battle less difficult.
Next was the Night Thunder Dream Beast, which had a huge wound on its waist as it had been bitten to buy those two seconds. Even after Chu Mu gave it a 500,000 gold coin Healing Potion, it took a full minute for the blood to stop flowing from the wound. During that minute, the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s vitality weakened to ten or twenty percent.
The Demon Spirit’s vitality was not very strong to begin with, and such bleeding caused the Night Thunder Dream Beast to pass out in Chu Mu’s Soul Pet Space. It would likely take half a month to recover fully.
Mo Ye had the most wounds, having fought the longest. Relying on its speed, evasion, and extensive battle experience, Mo Ye narrowly escaped death several tis.
Mo Ye had not suffered any fatal injury, but had many wounds to a moderate degree. From the neck down to the tail, there were at least a dozen bloodstains, seven of which were on the nine tails.
In fact, Zhan Ye endured the heaviest injuries, taking twenty tis more attacks than the White Nightmare Demon. If not for the powerful skill of Limb Regeneration, Chu Mu’s team would have been wiped out this ti.
Facing complete annihilation, Chu Mu knew that there were countless possibilities in this battle. But in the end, they managed to turn danger into safety.
Looking at the lifeless corpse of the Horror Wolf, Chu Mu’s desire for the valuable items after the battle had subsided. Instead, he stared at the corpse of the Ninth Stage Commander for a long ti.
“We’ve just entered the Eighth-level Mysterious Realm…” In addition to feeling triumphant, Chu Mu also felt a sense of wonder.
His strength seed far from enough. Just one battle had exhausted all his combat power. If a second creature of the sa level appeared, he and his soul pets would all be buried in this wasteland, eventually eroded into a pile of bones by the raging wind and yellow sand…
After a lengthy recovery, Chu Mu climbed the broken wall and retrieved the Rock Elental Crystal Stone.
“An 8th-level Rock Elental Crystal Stone is worth about 20 million gold. Young Master, you can use it to help the Ghost Do King advance to the seventh rank,” said Fox Elder.
Chu Mu nodded and put the hard-won spoils of war back into the Soul Pet Space.
“Grrr~~ grrr”
The Ghost Do King, who was in the Soul Pet Space, appeared guilty.
It was the only one that didn’t participate in this battle, and yet it was getting all the spoils. The Ghost Do King was clearly feeling guilty and sorry.
“It’s alright. As long as you work harder when other companions need you in the future,” Chu Mu reassured.
“Grrr~ grrr” The Ghost Do King nodded heavily.
“Roar~~~~~~~~~” At this mont, Zhan Ye, who was standing beside Chu Mu, suddenly let out two roars, as if specifically reminding Chu Mu.
“Grown up?” Chu Mu turned his head and imdiately saw that Zhan Ye’s body had beco shiny with an ink-like luster, which accelerated the healing of his clearly visible wounds, making his ink-black armor seem brand new.
“Seventh Rank 5th Stage, it seems that growth achieved through cross-level battles is significantly faster,” Chu Mu said.
Soul pet growth mainly cos from constant battles, continuously improving themselves and fully tapping their potential. The effect of these cross-level challenges is very evident.
“Woof woof woof”
Zhan Ye roared in its growth state, and Mo Ye’s voice suddenly echoed in Chu Mu’s spiritual world.
“Mo Ye, have you grown too?” Chu Mu was overjoyed and imdiately probed Mo Ye’s soul pet space with his soul sense.
Indeed, Mo Ye at the Seventh Rank 8th Stage had the sa growth luster as Zhan Ye!
Their earlier battle exposed them to threats from the Horror Wolf, leaving no ti for growth. But once the battle was over and their injuries and physical strength were slightly recuperated with potions, their growth happened imdiately.
“Seventh Rank Ninth Stage, after obtaining the Heart of the Nine-tailed Fla Fox, you can directly advance to the Eighth Rank Third Stage. By then, you’ll be able to hold your own too!” Chu Mu grinned.
“Roar roar roar”
As Mo Ye’s strength increased, Zhan Ye let out a few deep roars, as if telling Mo Ye that it would surpass it sooner or later.
When Chu Mu first encountered Zhan Ye, any casual attack from Mo Ye would critically injure Zhan Ye. But now, Zhan Ye’s strength was slowly catching up.
“It seems that Soul Armor is essential,” Chu Mu said to himself, caressing Zhan Ye’s tallic-feeling head.
Chu Mu realized that if he wanted to engage in cross-level battles, Zhan Ye would be the key. Only Zhan Ye could truly resist the attacks of powerful soul pets. Moreover, Zhan Ye’s Ink Armor Thorns were also crucial for corroding enemy’s defense. If Chu Mu wanted to survive in the Eighth-level Mysterious Realm, it was necessary to fully arm Zhan Ye so that they wouldn’t completely exhaust their combat power in just one battle.
“Young Master, the corpse of the Ninth Stage Horror Wolf can also be valuable. Collecting everything from it could sell for millions, enough for the price of the dicine,” Fox Elder suggested.
Chu Mu nodded and collected all the valuable parts from the Horror Wolf, such as its Soul Core, internal organ crystals, claws, fangs, and bones. Chu Mu estimated that he could make about 1 million gold, enough to pay for the 3-million-gold potion…
“Young Master, I noticed a few more Elental Crystal Stones behind the broken wall while you were fighting just now. The total value should be around 50 million. But you should leave now and head to World City to recover. If you want to venture deeper into the Eighth-level Mysterious Realm, you must at least elevate Little Fox. Otherwise, you’ll just continue exhausting your combat power and resources, which is worse than staying in the Seventh-level Mysterious Realm,” Fox Elder advised.
“50 million…” Chu Mu forced a bitter smile.
Chu Mu really wanted to continue, but at this point, Bingbing’s spiritual power was almost depleted, the Demon Tree Warrior’s physical strength was not sufficient, and only Zhan Ye, with its strong regenerative abilities, could still fight…
Helplessly shaking his head, Chu Mu had no choice but to recall the Demon Tree Warrior and Ice Spirit Lingbing to the Soul Pet Space. Riding Zhan Ye, he retreated out of the Great Rift Valley and headed in the direction of World City on a safer path. (To be continued.
