Chapter 217: Chapter 98: Bizarre, Half-human and Halfpet
Translator: 549690339
Blood Crown Sucking is a very unique ability among Plant Spirit Beasts, especially among Wood Type and Vine Family soul pets.
Once roots or vines puncture the enemy’s body, extremely fine tendrils immediately appear on the roots and vines.
These tendrils have a terrifying sucking ability. Once they pierce the enemy’s body, they will, within a short period of time, suck their blood into the roots and vines. Then, they transfer the absorbed blood into their main body, allowing their vitality to recover.
For Plant Spirit Beasts, vitality is inherently one of their strongest aspects. Excluding damage from the Fire Series, it is very difficult for other soul pets to deal any serious damage to them.
In battle, it’s already very difficult to wound Plant Spirit Beasts. If such a soul pet also possesses Blood Crown Sucking ability, which allows it to quickly regain combat power, it becomes even more troublesome.
Chu Mu’s Demon Tree Warrior now possesses Demon Wood, allowing it to be comparable to a Commander Level soul pet. However, as its strength increases, if the Demon Tree Warrior doesn’t gain any more powerful combat abilities, it will still be hard to compete against increasingly strong opponents. Therefore, obtaining such a magical item that can enhance its abilities is very necessary.
“Wuuuu——–“
MO Ye uses its claws to help Chu Mu break down the Crown Blood Vine carcass, quickly locating a semi-solidified blood-like object.
Chu Mu took out a specially prepared medicine bottle, carefully stored the drop of Crown Blood Fat, and then placed it in his Space Ring.
As far as Chu Mu’s knowledge goes, only Crown Blood Vines possess this substance called Crown Blood Fat. Furthermore, only Crown Blood Vines above Eighth Stage can possibly condense such a thing.
Crown Blood Vines usually inhabit deeper forests, so it is not an easy task to locate them. Due to their scarcity, Crown Blood Fat naturally becomes a treasured item.
By Chu Mu’s estimation, the value of this item should be at least 1 million, while the other, more valuable Blood-sucking Wood, when combined with Crown Blood Fat to form the Blood Crown Sucking crystal, is worth as much as a piece of level 6 soul equipment.
“Wuuuuuu-
MO Ye’s gaze quickly turned to the Night Thunder Dream Beast, indicating to
Chu Mu that the creature seemed to have absorbed the Demon Spirit Aura completely.
Chu Mu also looked over, and was surprised to find that the Night Thunder Dream Beast seemed even more handsome and charming. Standing at the top of the tree crown, whenever the Night Thunder Dream Beast restrained itself, it could silently blend into the Dark Night, unaffected by the moonlight that streamed down upon it. One couldn’t even cast a shadow of the Night Thunder Dream Beast.
“Xiao——-Xiao
The Night Thunder Dream Beast let out a high, lofty neigh, becoming extremely excited after gaining a new demon spirit power.
“It’s actually advanced to Sixth Rank Fifth Stage, well done!” Chu Mu immediately broke into a smile.
The most important aspect of Demon Spirit type soul pets is their stage. Only after growing and metamorphosing into a higher stage, will their mind become stronger and their psychic skills more effective.
Chu Mu was previously concerned about how the Night Thunder Dream Beast, which lacked in combat, could quickly increase its strength. After all, spirit items like Sky Monster Types are not always available and can’t be used at every stage. He didn’t expect that absorbing Demon Spirit Aura would not only strengthen the attributes of the Night Thunder Dream Beast but also enable its rapid growth.
In this way, it is necessary to bring the Night Thunder Dream Beast into certain territories where the Demon Spirit House has a strong Demon Spirit Aura, which would allow the Night Thunder Dream Beast to continuously improve its strength.
“Xiao—-Xiao—–“The Night Thunder Dream Beast floated in front of Chu Mu, eyes fixed on the Blue Sky Forest, which consisted of trunks interwoven with the ancient Sky Trees, conveying psychic information to Chu Mu.
“You mean the Demon Spirit Aura there is stronger, so it can further increase your strength?” Chu Mu asked.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast immediately nodded its head.
Obviously, the center of the Ninth-level Mysterious Realm is this vast blue expanse of sky forest.
Generally, soul pets that can leave their aura in such an extraordinary environment either possess special abilities or formidable strength. Entering such an environment will inevitably lead to battles if someone invades the territory of a particular soul pet. Therefore, despite the growth that Wandering Spirits can offer, it is still challenging for a Wandering Spirit to gain this powerful growth without overcoming this issue.
Various strange flowers and grasses grow within the Blue Sky Forest. Standing among the tree crowns and looking around, the view consists not of a dense, intricate network of branches, but rather a vast, blue grassland with various strange and exotic plants growing within range.
As Chu Mu walks on this special grassland with the Night Thunder Dream Beast, he can smell a peculiar fragrance. This fragrance gives a refreshing feeling, as if nerves that had been tense from being pursued by Xia Guanghan were slowly relaxing.
“Wuuuu——“Little MO Ye, lying on Chu Mu’s shoulder, yawns lazily, half-closing its eyes as if wanting to sleep.
With the fragrance wafting in the breeze, waves of drowsiness come over them. Feeling extremely comfortable, Chu Mu also feels his eyelids growing heavy, wanting to sleep peacefully amid the soft, fragrant atmosphere.
“Xiao-
Suddenly, a mental sound from the Night Thunder Dream Beast entered Chu Mu’s mind!
Chu Mu was abruptly awakened by the sound of the Night Thunder Dream Beast. He trembled, glanced around, and immediately noticed that a significant amount of Night Sleep Grass grew on the blue flower blanket!
Night Sleep Grass was a plant with a potent hypnotic effect at night. It should
have been tender. Promoting sleep and many wealthy families’ daughters
would grow one pot in their boudoirs.
However, when Night Sleep Grass grew in clusters, the hypnotic pollen would become concentrated at night, turning into a potent hypnotic power that even Monarch Level soul pets would sometimes struggle to resist.
When Night Sleep Grass formed this kind of short-term unconsciousness inducing hypnotic effect, it meant a trap created by the most bizarre of nature!
Night Sleep Grass required a massive amount of nutrients, which generally came from the nutrients decomposed in the soil after soul pets died.
When Night Sleep Grass grew in large groups, it formed an endless chain of sleep. Once a soul pet entered, it would never wake up again. It would die in its sleep and slowly decompose…
Chu Mu had already felt drowsy just now. If it hadn’t been for the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s timely reminder, Chu Mu would have unknowingly fallen asleep in the scent, and once he slept, he would have died peacefully in the Night Sleep Grass.
“This place is indeed terrifying.” Chu Mu, who had woken up, immediately applied his soul sense, guarding himself with lingering fear.
“Hiss—-Hiss-
The Night Thunder Dream Beast gradually released its dark energy, forming an invisible dark aura covering Chu Mu, MO Ye, and itself, blocking the hypnotic substances scattered by the Night Sleep Grass with the wind.
“Ye, can you control the hypnotic substances of these Night Sleep Grass?” Chu Mu asked.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast immediately nodded, ensuring that Chu Mu wouldn’t be hypnotized by those hypnotic substances again.
Chu Mu smiled and jumped off the back of the Night Thunder Dream Beast. He let the Night Thunder Dream Beast shield himself from the hypnotic invasion while he took out a medicine bottle…
“Ye, force all those hypnotic substances into this bottle.” Chu Mu said to the Night Thunder Dream Beast.
Although the Night Thunder Dream Beast was puzzled, it still followed Chu Mu’s instructions, controlling the dark energy to pour all the hypnotic powder into Chu Mu’s bottle.
“Let’s move forward, MO Ye be more alert,” Chu Mu said.
“Woooo- ” MO Ye mumbled with embarrassment, cutely opening her mouth and placing one of her tails in her mouth, demonstrating a “just bite my tail whenever I want to sleep” expression…
Chu Mu already felt his soul sense was on the verge of breaking through to Soul Lord levels. If the Night Thunder Dream Beast absorbed the demonic spirit atmosphere in the center of the Ninth-level Mysterious Realm, its strength would definitely improve greatly. In this case, Chu Mu’s chances of breaking through to Soul Lord Level would be even greater, so despite the dangers, Chu Mu felt it necessary to continue advancing.
Southern Territory of West Lingcheng Domain
A sharp whistling soared through the sky, and the entire night sky seemed to have a dazzling meteor, lighting up the night sky with brilliance.
This was a soul pet with gorgeous and radiant starlight all over its body. There was no grandiose momentum; instead, it was as unattainable as the stars in the sky!
Above this mysterious starlight soul pet, a beautiful and enchanting woman stood proudly.
The woman’s clothes fluttered, her long hair danced, and she exuded an air of dignity as she rode the unknown soul pet through the vast sky, looking like a goddess descending to earth…
“Is it this direction?” The woman focused her gaze ahead and asked coldly.
“It should be this direction. Your Highness, please spare me. I have retreated for many years, staying away from trouble, and I have never committed anything harmful. I have no connection with Xia Guanghan whatsoever.” A voice came from below the path of the starlight soul pet.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice that a strange creature with a raccoon-like head and a human child’s body was held in the claws of the starlight soul pet!
Half-human and half-pet soul creatures indeed existed in the realm of soul pets, but this one, with a raccoon head, short limbs, and dressed like a jester, was certainly bizarre and comical to the extreme.
Of course, the most peculiar thing was that this half-human half-pet could speak human language!
Human and soul pet communication could only occur through telepathy. No matter how long they spent together, soul pets would never speak human language. However, this half-human half-pet creature spoke fluent human language, even giving off an impression of a submissive and humble old man, making it an oddity in the world of soul pets!
