Chapter 572 - 443: Holy Land, the Appearance of the Qingzhe Dragon!
Chapter 572: Chapter 443: Holy Land, the Appearance of the Qingzhe Dragon!
Fox Elder was also an experienced treasure hunter. Its short body purposely roamed around the central part of the Rain Flower Sea, and even Chu Mu didn’t know where it had gone.
It didn’t take long for Fox Elder to rush back excitedly and say to Chu Mu, “Young Master, Young Master, there’s a good thing.”
“What good thing?” Chu Mu’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Isn’t the success criterion for Young Master’s breakthrough to capture a Rainbow Iris Demon for the First Realm?” Fox Elder said.
“Just say it, no need to beat about the bush.” Chu Mu didn’t want to listen to this old fellow’s suspense.
“Choosing the Di Sheng Domain, Young Master indicates that after any soul pet is captured as required, your ranking will enter the last place of the first-tier glory challenge of the Hunting Realm. Compared to the real strong ones in the first-tier, although the Di Sheng Domain is the most dangerous, the difficulty of capturing the Rainbow Iris Demon is not high, so there are other soul pets that need to be captured within the Di Sheng Domain.” Fox Elder still tried to create suspense.
Chu Mu knew what Fox Elder was talking about. In the Hunting Realm stage, there are many choices for the first-tier, including many difficult-to-capture Commander-level Soul Pets and even Monarch-level Soul Pets. If they capture soul pets of the same difficulty, the ranking of those who choose a higher-difficulty area will be higher.
The Di Sheng Domain is the most difficult area, so choosing the Di Sheng Domain is equivalent to choosing a glory challenge, similar to the honor challenge Chu Mu had for the Beast Fighting stage. Being able to last 25 minutes in the honor challenge during the Beast Fighting stage, he could rank last in the world rankings. The ranking will rise according to the time and number of kills after 25 minutes.
Similarly, capturing the lowest difficulty Rainbow Iris Demon within the Di Sheng Domain is equivalent to success in the first-tier glory challenge. Those who complete this task will be ranked according to time.
However, if the contestant has more extraordinary strength and captures a more challenging soul pet within the Di Sheng Domain, their ranking will definitely rise!
When Chu Mu entered the Di Sheng Domain, he specifically looked at the breakthrough requirements. The difficulty of capturing the Rainbow Iris Demon is the lowest, followed by the Heavenly Tendril Demon, Ancient Demon Tree, Ghost Spider Flower Demon, and other more challenging soul pets. Furthermore, there’s the extremely high difficulty of capturing the Monarch-level Flower Mother.
Fox Elder’s excitement indicated that he must have discovered a soul pet that could bring Chu Mu a higher ranking on the first-tier glory board!
“Could there be a juvenile Flower Mother Monarch here?” Chu Mu immediately asked.
The difficulty of obtaining a juvenile Flower Mother Monarch is very high. If Chu Mu can get it, he will definitely rank in the top 20 of the first-tier, with the name of a third-tier member appearing in the top 20 of the first-tier glory board Hunting Realm, which would surely shock the entire World City.
“Young Master, don’t be delirious. Monarch-level soul pets in the Di Sheng Domain are not easy to hunt. You should at least upgrade your soul pets to the Tenth Rank before considering. I’m talking about a juvenile Ghost Spider Flower Demon. The young pet is guarded by many of its kind, about the same number as the ones Young Master just dealt with.” Fox Elder said.
Even the top experts in the second-tier could only deal with one Tenth Rank Commander, and one Tenth Rank high-level commander was equivalent to a Ninth Rank intermediate monarch. So, even the mighty ones with all four main pets reaching the Ninth Rank intermediate monarch could normally only deal with five Tenth Rank Commanders at once.
“Young Master, find a safe place to rest first and let your soul pets recharge their combat power and your soul power. Then fight again, and you can retreat when it’s almost time. It’s a good thing to enjoy challenges, but excessive challenges are reckless. Young Master, you must know where to stop.” Fox Elder spoke.
Chu Mu nodded his head. If he could obtain the Ghost Spider Flower Demon, his ranking could advance by about ten places, and he could earn quite a bit more money. This trip would have been worth it!
…
Chu Mu could hide himself well when not fighting. He deliberately left the Sea of Flowers, found a safe place in the dense jungle, and rested for two days to adjust himself to the most energetic state. He only started his operation at night.
The two fire series soul pets with intense fire damage played a crucial role in fighting the plant world. Otherwise, Chu Mu wouldn’t dare to face more than ten Commanders at once so casually.
Of course, Chu Mu had to use the Sky Flame Ceremony, a sure-kill skill. Without its powerful lethality, the attack of the ten Commanders was not something Chu Mu’s soul pets could withstand. So, the tactics still focused on concentrated firepower, quickly resolved several of them, and then proceeded to break them one by one.
The Commanders guarding the juvenile Ghost Spider Flower Demon were much more potent than the previous wave Chu Mu encountered. At the beginning of the battle, the White Nightmare Demon and Mo Ye were frequently injured, and several times their soul pets fell into a crisis where they were thoroughly restricted.
The Demon Tree Warrior was severely injured at the beginning and couldn’t cause any real harm to those Ghost Spider Flower Demons, making it difficult for it to use life siphon.
Chu Mu put away the Demon Tree Warrior and summoned the Ice-Feathered Spirit and the Ghost Dome King to take turns to defend.
Plant Spirit Beasts have a strong root ability and wind resistance, so Chu Mu didn’t summon the Wind-binding Spirit to battle from beginning to end.
Surprisingly, the White Nightmare Demon, relying on its resentment condensation ability, forcibly upgraded itself to the Ninth Stage, killing a Tenth Rank Ghost Spider Flower Demon with its astonishing combat power and explosive ability, slightly changing the overall battle situation.
Chu Mu’s grasp of the battle situation was excellent. As long as there was a breakthrough, he could thoroughly defeat his opponents.
After killing a Tenth Rank Ghost Spider Flower Demon and noticeably relieving the pressure, Chu Mu gradually gained control of the situation.
The battle was tough, but ultimately Chu Mu was victorious. After dealing with all the Ghost Spider Flower Demons, Chu Mu was exhausted, and with his soul power depleted, he managed to force the juvenile Ghost Spider Flower Demon into a Soul Capture Ring.
…
Chu Mu purposely rested for two days before following the marks he had made earlier back towards the gate of the Holy Land.
As for clues regarding the defected girl, Chu Mu could only pin his hopes on the random things he had dug up from the ground. It would be best if he could figure out the lineage of her soul pet; that way, if someday a person appeared with the ability to use a certain powerful soul pet, or if there were rumors about her, Chu Mu could reasonably confirm her as the defected girl and wouldn’t be at his wits’ end like before.
Of course, it would be even better if there were any other clues that could directly expose her identity…
It took Chu Mu six days to catch the Ghost Spider Flower Demons in the Di Sheng Domain. On his way back, he encountered a ferocious Tree Demon attack, which he had anticipated, so he waited until he was in full condition before returning. After a fierce battle, Chu Mu managed to crawl out of the edge of the Di Sheng Domain, exhausted.
If Chu Mu were to experience such an accident again, there would be no chance of returning. So, when his combat power was already weary, Chu Mu was extra careful, taking almost three days to gradually approach the safe zone…
The gate of the Holy Land was right in front of him, and Chu Mu didn’t want to let his soul pet expend any more energy, so he dragged his exhausted body slowly towards the gate.
The cruelty and horror of the Ninth-level Mysterious Realm were truly experienced by Chu Mu during this time. If Chu Mu had encountered such a trap before entering the Rain Flower Sea, he didn’t know if he could successfully complete the challenge.
The gate of the Holy Land was situated on a vast grassland with an open view. Due to the regular cleaning by the Holy Guard, this place was absolutely safe.
When Chu Mu reached here, his exhausted face finally broke into a smile. He quickened his pace and walked towards the gate of the Holy Land.
After all, he crawled back out of the Di Sheng Domain.
This time, the challenge must have worried many people. Once Chu Mu stepped out of the gate of the Holy Land, they could stop making funeral arrangements for him.
“Whoooooshhhhh~~~~~~~~~~~”
Suddenly, a chaotic and powerful wind blew from afar, quickly approaching Chu Mu!
Chu Mu remained vigilant even when exhausted and unsafe. Feeling a powerful creature approaching, Chu Mu immediately raised his head, chanting the Displacement Demon Shadow spell!
“Whoooooshhhhh!!!!!!”
The wind grew stronger, swirling around and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Through the haze, Chu Mu could see a magnificent blue figure waving its wings filled with wild power, soaring domineeringly over Chu Mu’s head and landing a hundred meters in front of the Holy Land gate!
“Thud~~~~~~~~~~~”
When the creature landed, the surrounding ground trembled. Its aura was not deliberately released, but Chu Mu, who stood two hundred meters away, could feel the oppressiveness!
Chu Mu was secretly shocked, wondering what kind of soul pet possessed such a terrifying aura.
However, when Chu Mu finally saw the creature clearly, his heart raced!!
A body with unmatched blue power, flesh wings that galloped across the land and sky, a majestic, proud skull, and dragon claws that could destroy anything!!
“Zhe Dragon!!!” Chu Mu cried out in surprise.
As Chu Mu exclaimed, the creature in his sight was indeed a supreme race, the Qingzhe Dragon!!!
