Supreme Tamer

Chapter 643: Chapter 514: Signs Before Mo Ye’s Mutant Change (Part 1)

“One of us is severely injured and needs help. Please, guard brother, lead us away from Tian Shou Mountain,” Ting Lan said, pointing to the incredibly weak Li Zhan.

Reaching the eighth realm of this trial was Ting Lan’s limit, and now she wanted to take Li Zhan back to the Soul Hall and have Elder De take control of his condition.

The competition guard quickly noticed Li Zhan. He didn’t say much, and hurriedly jumped down from his winged soul pet to lift Li Zhan onto the back of the soul pet.

“My winged soul pet can only accommodate one person. Carrying too many would affect balance and speed. I’ll take him down the mountain first and have him treated immediately,” the competition guard said.

Ting Lan and Shang Heng both wanted to quit the trial, but they knew that Li Zhan needed immediate treatment. They nodded and let the competition guard take Li Zhan down the mountain.

Everyone watched as the winged soul pet of the competition member smoothly took off and flew quickly towards the bottom of the mountain.

“Let’s leave this place,” Chu Mu said.

Chu Mu felt that the strong prisoner might be nearby, and staying here for too long might lead them to encounter him.

Chu Mu didn’t want to engage in combat with someone too strong too early, as that would only deplete too much of his combat power. At the moment, he had the Demon Tree Warrior release its roots to form some climbable roots on the towering hundred-meter gap…

The most troublesome part of this stone wall was that there were no footholds. After the Demon Tree Warrior’s roots spread out, reaching the higher point became much easier.

“Chu Chen, we plan to quit. There is no need to drag you down,” Ting Lan said to Chu Mu when she saw him taking them to continue.

Many of Shang Heng’s soul pets were seriously injured, and it didn’t make much sense to continue fighting, so he didn’t plan to continue either.

“There is a powerful prisoner nearby. If you continue to linger here and the other competition guard does not come to take you away in time, you will be in danger,” Ye Qingzi explained for Chu Mu. “So, you should follow us out of here first.”

“Well then… thank you for the trouble,” Ting Lan nodded.

…

During the night, the competition guard carrying Li Zhan flew through the fog drifting between the mountains and headed down the mountain.

Indeed, the contestant was badly injured and needed more urgent treatment, so the competition guard did not dare to delay.

After flying for nearly half an hour, a golden figure suddenly appeared in front of the competition guard.

Competition guards have different levels. Gold-armored competition guards have stronger abilities than silver-armored ones; this is usually determined by their positions in major powers.

“What’s going on?” the gold-armored man controlled his winged soul pet and looked at the silver-armored guard flying hastily down the mountain.

“A contestant was attacked by a large group of prisoners and was seriously injured. He needs treatment. There are also two other contestants near the gap who want to quit the competition. If you happen to be passing by, please take those two injured contestants away from the race as well,” the silver-armored guard said.

“Who are they?” the gold-armored guard asked.

“People from the Soul Hall. I saw Miss Ting Lan of Soul Hall and Chu Chen, who has become very famous recently,” the silver-armored guard said. “Saving people is important, I have to head down the mountain.”

“Yeah, go ahead,” the gold-armored guard nodded.

After the silver-armored guard left with Li Zhan, the gold-armored guard’s face under his helmet suddenly became a bit colder!

This man had a pale face with a sickly fatigue, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s, especially when they flashed with resentment, making him seem even more frightening!

“Back then, if it wasn’t for the existence of the quasi-emperor Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor, even if you turned into a half-demon, I, Xia Guanghan, could have easily crushed you. Now, I want to see what you have to contend with me!” The gold-armored man smiled.

During this time, he had been flying in the air, just to find Chu Mu among the many contestants. Now that he finally had a clue, he would definitely not let Chu Mu leave!!

This gold-armored competition guard was none other than Xia Guanghan!

Back at the Demon Spirit House, Xia Guanghan’s true main pets did not dare to summon, and even the high-level monarch Funeral Yellow Sand Dragon, an invaluable soul pet, was killed by Chu Mu!

If the Funeral Yellow Sand Dragon had not died at that time, it would probably be close to tenth-rank by now. If all the costs of healing were used to strengthen the Funeral Yellow Sand Dragon, Xia Guanghan might have had a tenth-rank peak monarch by now!

With a tenth-rank peak monarch, Xia Guanghan’s status would be far more prominent. However, all of this had been stifled by Chu Mu in the battle at the Demon Spirit House!

Now, Xia Guanghan had recovered. Although he only had three main pets, these three main pets were Xia Guanghan’s true strength!!

…

…

“Owoooo~~~~~~”

Little Mo Xie jumped agilely from the rugged rocks and gracefully bounced back to Chu Mu’s side.

“There are two prisoners?” Chu Mu asked.

“Wuwuwu~~~” Little Mo Xie adorably nodded her head.

Chu Mu now had a total of 24 billion, but this amount was certainly not enough. Since there were prisoners lurking around, he would naturally need to collect their lives!

“You guys rest here, I’ll be back shortly.” Chu Mu said to Ye Qingzi, Ting Lan, and Shang Heng.

After being treated by Ye Qingzi’s soul pets, Ting Lan and Shang Heng’s injuries had mostly recovered. Neither of them had suffered any soul injuries, so as long as their soul power and soul pets’ injuries were healed, they would still have considerable combat power.

Night had already fallen, and Ye Qingzi had Lingyin Qie set up some not easily detectable hypnotic traps in the surrounding area to prevent enemies from sneaking close.

“You guys rest, it should be safer here.” Ye Qingzi said.

Shang Heng nodded his head and sat down to rest, exhausted. Ting Lan and her soul pets were resting by her side as well. After being overly shocked and experiencing great joy and sorrow, she indeed needed a peaceful sleep to adjust her condition.

…

On the other side of the mountain, Chu Mu stepped on the corpses of the two seventh-level prisoners expressionlessly, removing the prisoner rings from their hands.

With the addition of these two prisoner rings, Chu Mu had collected a total of 25 billion in funds.

According to Chu Mu’s estimation, by the time there were only a few days left and the number of prisoners and contestants remained constant, Chu Mu would have to steal the prisoner rings from the contestants’ hands in order to continue receiving them.

By that time, the battles would evolve into a contest between the contestants themselves!

After dealing with the two prisoners, Chu Mu returned the same way.

“Wuwuwu~~~~~~~” Suddenly, Little Mo Xie let out a strange cry, signaling Chu Mu to come here.

Chu Mu walked over and quickly discovered some viscous secretions under a rock, which seemed to be the body fluid of some insect-type soul pets.

“This…this feels like the secretion of the gluttonous insect monsters?” Chu Mu muttered to himself.

Chu Mu had dealt with the gluttonous insect monsters for a long time, and he still remembered the smell of their secretions. He couldn’t help but wonder if there was someone in the Eighth Realm with the rare and terrifying Mother of a Hundred soul pet.

“It’s already a bit dry, it seems to have been left a while ago.” Chu Mu said.

“Wuwuwu~~~~~” Little Mo Xie cutely nodded her head.

“Let’s go back first, and have everyone mentally prepared. If it’s a gluttonous insect monster, they have the ability to turn invisible, so we must be extra careful.” Chu Mu said.

…

Chu Mu returned to the resting place and informed Ye Qingzi of the gluttonous insect monster situation.

Ye Qingzi also frowned, as the gluttonous insect monsters were indeed a difficult group to deal with, especially with their ability to hide and easily ambush people.

“The prisoner controlling the gluttonous insect monster doesn’t seem to be here for now. Summon your Purple Robe Dream Beast, so it can sense any abnormalities in time if something happens.” Chu Mu said to Ye Qingzi.

Ye Qingzi nodded and recalled the rather slow Ice and Fire Fairy into her Soul Pet Space, summoning the Purple Robe Dream Beast.

Ye Qingzi’s Purple Robe Dream Beast was much stronger than Chu Mu’s Night, and Chu Mu was now mainly focused on offense, so the Night Thunder Dream Beast was not suitable for intense combat. Thus, Chu Mu did not summon it.

Ye Qingzi handed the Soul Power medicine to Chu Mu, and said, “This can double the speed of your Soul Power recovery. If you meditate tonight, you should be able to recover the Soul Power you previously consumed.”

“Yeah.” Chu Mu took the Soul Power medicine and soon felt a slight surge in his Soul Power. Then, he leaned against a rock and sat down.

“Wuwu~~~~~~~”

Whenever Chu Mu meditated, Little Mo Xie would always conscientiously jump into Chu Mu’s arms and sleep soundly. However, this time, Mo Xie was not like that. Instead, she looked energetic, jumping around the Demon Tree Warrior playfully.

“Chu Mu, your Little Mo Xie has been quite lively lately, hasn’t she?” Ye Qingzi sat beside Chu Mu, with a hint of a smile in her eyes as she looked at Little Mo Xie.

Chu Mu opened his eyes and saw Little Mo Xie being naughty again, running to Shang Heng’s Thunder Sword Wing Lion’s head. He could only smile bitterly and said, “Yeah, she hasn’t been sleeping much lately. Before, as long as she was full, she would sleep…”

The Thunder Sword Wing Lion had a tall and strong body, but Little Mo Xie was too fast for it and could not shake her off. It could only allow the little fox to pull at its abundant hair with a helpless expression.

“When a soul pet exhibits some peculiar behavior, it is often a sign of some unusual circumstance. You must be extra vigilant.” Ye Qingzi reminded him.

“Unusual circumstance?” Chu Mu pondered while stroking his chin.

Speaking of which, it had been a long time since Mo Xie’s last mutation. Moreover, Chu Mu remembered that Fox Elder once told him that when Zhan Ye fell into the abyss, Mo Xie’s condition was very strange at that time.
