Chapter 772: Chapter 642: Female Spirit Master of Nightmare Demon Palace, Qian Qin
…
Nightmare Demon City
Not long after Chu Mu arrived at Nightmare Demon City on the Night Thunder Dream Beast, he imdiately received bad news from the Demon Tree Warrior.
It’s impossible for a soul pet and its master to communicate from such a distance, but Chu Mu can sense the distance of his soul pet from himself.
Before leaving, Chu Mu told the Demon Tree Warrior that if sothing unexpected happened, he should move closer to Chu Mu.
If sothing more serious, like Barbarian Valley being massacred, the Demon Tree Warrior would move a long distance away from Chu Mu, indicating that he must return as soon as possible.
Chu Mu now sensed that the Demon Tree Warrior was moving closer to him, aning sothing had happened to Barbarian Valley, but there was still ti to deal with it.
“The Western World is at war with West Marsh, West Marsh can’t possibly have any extra troops to harass Barbarian Valley, and the Demon Tree Warrior hasn’t fought. What could have happened?” Chu Mu cald himself down, thinking about the possible events.
“Thinking too much is useless, first find the plague suppressant dicine, then exchange the strengthening spirit items needed by the White Nightmare Demon, and imdiately go back to Barbarian Valley,” Chu Mu said.
Chu Mu is now in Nightmare Demon City, he must complete these two tasks, otherwise, Chu Family will be trapped in Barbarian Valley forever and eventually be killed by the plague.
…
Chu Mu still carried the Seventh Level title Nightmare Young Master’s identity card on him, making it very easy to enter Nightmare Demon Palace.
“Fox Elder, where should I go for trading? Trading among Sould Emperors is different from ordinary trading, right?” Chu Mu asked.
“Young Master, wear a mask and don’t let others recognize you. Pretend to be a wandering Soul Emperor, and others won’t dare to ss with you if they don’t know your true nature,” The Fox Elder said.
Following Fox Elder’s advice, Chu Mu bought a silver mask on the market, put it on, and hid his own breath.
At first, Chu Mu was curious about how trading between Soul Emperors would be, as it turned out to be the sa as ordinary trading, conducted in the trading hall.
However, the trading between Soul Emperors takes place in a special room, and most of the traded items are exchanged for other items. Those trading with Spirits are a minority.
Spirits are consumables, and most Soul Emperors keep them, after all, spiritual sources are not available everywhere. At the sa ti, this also shows that Spirits are very popular. Unlike exchanging items for other items, which often have to be stored here for a long ti before they can be exchanged, sotis no one trades at all.
As long as the equivalent amount of spirits is offered, soone is definitely willing to exchange, and the price will hardly fluctuate.
After putting on the mask, the old man who introduced Chu Mu to the trading hall for Soul Emperors always had complicated eyes looking at Chu Mu but didn’t dare to ask anything.
“Everyone calls Old Man Shi, and my place is like a storage room. Whenever soone gets an emperor-level item, it is placed here, and I will list it out. If soone wants to trade, I will notify the owner. The owner’s na can be public or kept confidential. As a middleman, even if a knife is put on my neck, I will not reveal the owner’s identity,” Old Man Shi seed to see that Chu Mu didn’t quite understand the Soul Emperor trading system and passionately introduced it.
At this ti, Master Li’s voice also popped out: “Young Master, the people behind these Soul Emperor middlen are the ones who have control over the economic power of a force. As long as it is not a fifth-level and above Emperor Spiritual item, they can be safely thrown to this old man for safekeeping, with no worry of it being secretly taken away. In addition to Nightmare Demon Palace, all major powers have such characters. From ti to ti, these middlen will et in certain places to help owners exchange items stored here for other items. Of course, at that ti, many Soul Emperors will appear to see the items they are satisfied with. Those with Spirits will buy with spirits, and those without spirits will exchange items. There will be an old man in each major power to comprehensively evaluate the value of the items.”
Chu Mu nodded his head. He wasn’t in the mood to learn about the Soul Emperor trading system in detail now. Right away, he asked if there were any spirit items that could 100% strengthen a Peak Monarch-level White Nightmare Demon to Emperor level.
“100%? That’s very expensive!” Old Man Shi elongated his voice.
“Do you have it or not!” Chu Mu’s tone got a bit heavier.
“Well… it’s available, but not readily exchanged,” Old Man Shi said.
The items to strengthen the White Nightmare Demon were in high demand, and almost all Nightmare Demon Palace Soul Emperors scrambled for them. Who would be willing to give them up easily for a trade?
Moreover, these mainstream Emperor-level spirit items are wanted by many people trying to make a profit from the exchange difference and obtain items of higher value.
“I’ll trade with spirits!” Chu Mu said.
“Spirits!” Old Man Shi’s old eyes lit up, but he quickly coughed and concealed his eagerness, saying, “Do you know how many souls you need to exchange for the soul of the White Nightmare Demon?”
“You give a number,” Chu Mu said.
“This…” Old Man Shi’s eyes turned, hesitated for a while before saying, “20,000 spirits!”
20,000 spirits were just the right price; Chu Mu didn’t think the old man’s price was outrageous.
“I want to get this item imdiately,” Chu Mu said.
“If you can give 20,000 spirits right away, I’ll give you the Soul of White Nightmare Demon imdiately,” the old man said crisply as well.
Old Man Shi had been carefully observing Chu Mu’s eyes beneath the silver mask. Old Man Shi felt that Chu Mu did have so spirits, but not too many. As for bringing out 20,000 spirits at once, he didn’t have much hope.
20,000 spirits would require countless territories, spiritual origins, years of production. And that’s assuming the soul pets of Soul Emperors who controlled resources didn’t consu anything.
Nowadays, wars had left both humans and soul pets in chaotic states, making spirits rarer and more precious as a source of power. Unless soone ventured into the forbidden domain, it would be rare for an ordinary Soul Emperor to have an extra 20,000 spirits. At least, not in the Western Region.
“If you don’t have that many, just bring out however many you have. The remaining amount can be exchanged for equivalent mainstream Emperor-level spirit items. Of course, you must have at least 10,000 spirits. If not, you need to provide more things. “Seeing Chu Mu hesitating, Old Man Shi took the initiative to give Chu Mu a way out.
Chu Mu hesitated because he was communicating with Master Li. Since their transaction had authorization and security, Chu Mu simply took out the space ring where the spirits were kept.
“Probe inside with your soul sense, there are 20,000 spirits!” Chu Mu said.
Old Man Shi looked slightly surprised and quickly probed with his soul sense.
At first, Old Man Shi was half-believing and half-doubting. However, when he sensed the imnse spiritual energy inside Chu Mu’s space ring, his face imdiately showed a mix of amazent and joy.
“It really is 20,000 spirits, without any impurities!” Old Man Shi had been doing this work for half a lifeti, and he had a good sense of estimating the amount of spirits. His eyes lit up and he beca much friendlier towards Chu Mu!
20,000 spirits was a large sum in Nightmare Demon City, not comparable to other places like World City. If sold in batches, one could make a considerable profit!
…
The transaction went smoothly. After Chu Mu took out the 20,000 spirits in his ring, Old Man Shi promptly handed the White Nightmare Demon Soul to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu had obtained this type of spirit refining item before, which could directly enhance the White Nightmare Demon’s soul strength. For the White Nightmare Demon, which could devour souls, this thod of strengthening was the most direct.
Upon obtaining the Emperor-level White Nightmare Demon Soul, a smile appeared on Chu Mu’s face.
Next, as long as he reached the Emperor-level, Chu Mu would be able to strengthen the White Nightmare Demon to also be at the Emperor-level. Most importantly, an Emperor-level White Nightmare Demon would possess a sub-attribute, making it even stronger than an ordinary quasi-Emperor, with the potential to take on two at once!
Of course, Chu Mu could strengthen it now. As a Nine Thoughts Spirit Soul Master, he could strengthen an Emperor-level soul pet. All he needed to do was have the confidence to suppress the Emperor-level White Nightmare Demon Soul with his soul sense and channel it into the White Nightmare Demon’s soul.
However, even with a 100% success rate soul item, there would still be a chance of failure if a Nine Thoughts Soul Master were to strengthen an Emperor-level soul pet.
…
Ti was of the essence. After leaving the Soul Emperor Trading Hall, Chu Mu took off his mask and publicly announced a large reward for obtaining the plague dicine, describing the epidemic situation in Barbarian Valley in detail.
As the reward was substantial, not long after Chu Mu issued the reward request, a female Spirit Master from the Nightmare Demon Palace appeared.
This female Spirit Master had a tranquil beauty that gave off another worldly aura, which caught Chu Mu off guard. Chu Mu wondered how there could be such a Spirit Master in the Nightmare Demon Palace and felt that he had seen her sowhere before.
“Hello, my na is Qian Qin, and I am a Spirit Master about to reach the ninth level. Where is the epidemic you ntioned?” Qian Qin, who claid to be the raccoon-looking female Spirit Master, asked.
“It’s in the Western Region’s Seven Color City.” Chu Mu also knew the urgency of the situation and didn’t hide much.
“Seven Color City? Wasn’t that place already occupied? Does it an that many people have survived?” Qian Qin imdiately asked.
Chu Mu knew that if he wanted to eradicate the epidemic completely, he had to tell Qian Qin all the details. So he inford her of the situation with the surviving 30,000 Barbarian Valley inhabitants from Seven Color City and described the symptoms of the epidemic in detail.
“Just based on description, not even the most powerful Spirit Master can formulate dicine. We have to go there personally to diagnose.” Qian Qin said.
“Well… Qian Qin, can I ask you to accompany to Barbarian Valley? There are 30,000 people there, and the epidemic is severe. If not resolved within ten days, many people will die.” Chu Mu earnestly said.
Chu Mu knew that if the epidemic continued to spread, even the people of Chu Family would be threatened, so it had to be resolved imdiately.
“The area has been surrounded by the West Marsh Tribe, and even the Nightmare Demon Palace can’t send an expert to protect entering Seven Color City at this mont. Even if I wanted to go…” Qian Qin said.
“I can guarantee your safety.” Chu Mu hurriedly said.
Chu Mu could see that this Spirit Master seed to care a lot about the survivors and didn’t appear indifferent about the situation.
Qian Qin blinked her eyes, looked at Chu Mu, and didn’t seem to believe that a young man like Chu Mu could protect her as they crossed through an entire tribe.
“I will give you a large reward, and I will also bear all the costs of the dicinal materials you need. Just say what you need to bring with you.” Chu Mu had spent a lot of ti with Ye Qingzi, and he knew that many potions needed a lot of materials.
“I just want to save them, it’s not about the reward. As long as you can assure that I can safely enter and exit the Barbarian Valley you ntioned, I am willing to go with you.” Qian Qin said seriously. (.)
