Chapter 314: Chapter 192: Guaiyan Guardian Clan

Translator: 549690339

The darkness was gradually dispersed by the morning light, and a dazzling ray of sunshine penetrated the mist, slanting onto the top of Sky Crystal Peak. The mountain peak, which should have scattered various lights from different rock crystal ores, was strangely enveloped by a thick black aura, gradually devouring the light and shrouding the very top of Sky Crystal Peak.

“Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Suddenly, a roar echoing through the sky came from the top of Sky Crystal Peak, and the upper half of the peak shook violently.

Broken rocks rolled down from the extremely steep peak. Chu Mu raised his head, staring at the dense black clouds at the top of the peak, and felt as if a shadow had been cast over his heart for some reason.

Ye Qingzi rode her Purple Robe Dream Beast, leaping upward along the steep cliff. At each landing, there was a noticeable loosening of the cliff face, as if the rock would roll away if the Dream Beast landed only a little heavier.

“I wonder what kind of creature is lurking atop Sky Crystal Peak?” Chu Mu frowned as he watched the dark clouds that were difficult to disperse.

“It must be very difficult to deal with, we need to find a way to get out of this predicament.” Ye Qingzi said.

If they continued to go upwards, they would definitely encroach on the territory of the Sky Crystal Peak Lord, and there were five Elemental Gate members chasing them below. They were truly caught between a rock and a hard place.

Chu Mu rode his Night Thunder Dream Beast. The Night Thunder Dream Beast took a leap but almost slid down. Fortunately, there were shadows below, allowing the Night Thunder Dream Beast to briefly tread in mid-air before returning to the steep rock wall location.

“Are you okay?” Ye Qingzi stood high above, looking down at the fallen Chu Mu, worriedly asking.

“I’m fine.” Chu Mu shook his head, looking up at Ye Qingzi.

At this moment, Chu Mu’s soul sense suddenly caught a trace of life’s fluctuation at the steep rock wall where Ye Qingzi was!

A pair of eerie eyes appeared behind Ye Qingzi, completely embedded in the stone wall, blinking ominously, and showing a hint of predatory intent!

“Qingzi, be careful behind you.” Chu Mu immediately reminded Ye Qingzi.

Death Light!

The Night Thunder Dream Beast’s reaction was quick, forming a death light in its mouth and spraying it at the squirming soul pet behind Ye Qingzi!

After realizing the danger, Ye Qingzi’s Purple Robe Dream Beast made several leaps and landed gracefully on another relatively flat rock!

“Boom!!!!!”

The Death Light directly targeted the rock position behind Ye Qingzi. The soul pet attached to the rock suddenly stretched out its body from the cracks, and its long hook-like rock claws fiercely tore at the Death Light sprayed by the Night Thunder Dream Beast!

Death Light had explosive power, but when those rock-like long claws brushed it, the Death Light quietly turned into a shattering energy without any attack power, and gradually dissipated.

“Huff, huff, huff, huff, huff”

The strong wind howled at the high altitude, blowing Ye Qingzi’s hair. Looking at the soul pet emerging from the rock, Ye Qingzi couldn’t help but gasp!

This Rock-type soul pet was made up entirely of black-brown rocks, but it had sharper and more pointed claws than many Beast-type soul pets. The claws were at least half a meter long, and it seemed that the whole arm was formed by these long claws.

Ye Qingzi had seen quite a few soul pets, but this was her first encounter with such a rock-type one. She immediately had her Purple Robe Dream Beast launch thunder attacks on this unnameable rock-type soul pet.

“Fox Elder, what is this thing?” Chu Mu didn’t recognize this rock creature either, and asked as he commanded the Night Thunder Dream Beast to attack at the same time.

“This is a Guaiyan Guardian, a Warrior Level soul pet, specifically relying on some special groups of powerful soul pets. This kind of soul pet’s single combat ability is not strong.” The Fox Elder immediately explained to Chu Mu.

“Seventh Rank 5th Stage – Guaiyan Guardian, it shouldn’t be too difficult to deal with.” Chu Mu immediately told Ye Qingzi the information of this soul pet.

Ye Qingzi nodded her head, and just as she was about to have her Purple Robe Dream Beast launch a thunder attack, she suddenly felt an unusual fluctuation behind her!

A pair of eyes suddenly appeared beside her Purple Robe Dream Beast, and a thick rock aura surged, as if a sandstorm was raging, attacking her face.

“Ah!” Ye Qingzi let out a scream, unable to react in time, she and her Purple Robe Dream Beast were hit by the rock force and flew out, thrown far away to the wind-torn cliff edge!

“Mo Ye!”

Seeing Ye Qingzi fall, Chu Mu’s heart tightened, and he hurriedly summoned Mo Ye.

The Crown Flame Totem started to burn, and Chu Mu swiftly jumped from the Night Thunder Dream Beast onto the back ridge of Mo Ye, which sprang out of the totem.

The totem was suspended in mid-air, and as Mo Ye leaped out, it immediately used the Flame Step skill. Its four hooves stepped on several fire rings in the air in succession, chasing after Ye Qingzi who had fallen below the mountain peak.

“Dragon Ride the Wind!”

Ye Qingzi’s mental strength was incredibly strong, even during the heart-stopping process of falling, she managed to recite a Soul Technique incantation completely.

As the incantation was completed, an invisible whirlwind wrapped around Ye Qingzi’s body, lifting her and the Purple Robe Dream Beast into a semi-floating state in mid-air.

At this moment, Chu Mu and Mo Ye arrived just in time. Ye Qingzi landed right in Chu Mu’s embrace, with her fragrant body making the most intimate contact with his chest…

The Purple Robe Dream Beast itself also had the ability to walk on air, but it had just been ambushed by the Guaiyan Guardian, its legs injured and unable to use the air-walking ability. Mo Ye, on the other hand, used its tail to promptly wrap up the Purple Robe Dream Beast.

With Crown Flame Flying Step, Mo Ye ran along a flaming arc just outside the cliff, returning to the cliffside position.

“Are you okay?” Chu Mu asked with concern as he held Ye Qingzi in his arms.

“Mmm, just some superficial injuries,” replied Ye Qingzi, her beautiful eyes flashing a hint of shyness. She quickly broke free from Chu Mu’s embrace, returning to her previous demeanor.

“Young Master, I did say that its single combat ability is not strong, but these creatures usually appear in groups, and they always like to protect their masters,” said Fox Elder.

Chu Mu couldn’t be bothered to argue with the elder who failed to mention this detail earlier. Scanning the area, he was shocked to find countless eyes suddenly appearing among the cliffs!

A pair of eyes were embedded in the steep cliffs, all the cold gazes focused on Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi. The feeling of being stared at was like being trapped in a group of angry, hungry creatures, sending chills down their spines!

The eyes blinked, and sharp rock claws slowly emerged from the cliffs, followed by bodies slowly pulling themselves out…

Broken rocks tumbled chaotically, sliding from the high place all the way down nearly a thousand meters below the mountain peak. More and more Guaiyan Guardians emerged from the rocks, standing silently between the mountain peaks as if suspended in mid-air.

Just as Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi barely caught their breath, at least thirty Guaiyan Guardians appeared around them. Their pairs of stone eyes stared at the duo, filled with hostility.

Gravels and rocks started to shake restlessly, affected by the Rock Element aura of these thirty Guaiyan Guardians. The rocks began to float nearby the steep cliffs, as if being controlled.

Both Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi frowned almost simultaneously. They were both standing in between the steep cliffs, with only uneven and bizarre rocks as footing. The space was very narrow, making it difficult for many of their Soul Pets to properly fight.

“Qingzi, let’s go!” Fighting these Guaiyan Guardians in such an environment meant only one outcome – death.

It seemed that the only Soul Pet Ye Qingzi could control was the Purple Robe Dream Beast, but its injured legs made it hard to move skillfully on the cliffs…

Chu Mu, of course, took this into account and immediately instructed the Night Thunder Dream Beast to carry Ye Qingzi away!

“Boom boom boom!!!!!!!”

Suddenly, three ten-meter-long rock spikes emerged horizontally from the cliff, like giant spears, fiercely thrusting towards Mo Ye!!

Mo Ye quickly realized the danger and its nine tails began to overlap, curling and undulating like clouds!

Nine-Tailed Illusion!

The three ten-meter-long rock spikes swiftly passed through Mo Ye’s nine tails, which seemed to have no effect as if piercing through clouds. As Mo Ye’s nine tails unfolded, Mo Ye and Chu Mu had already appeared at a higher point on the rock wall.

“Hui~~~~~~~~~~”

Sparks flashed between the horns of the Night Thunder Dream Beast. As Ye Qingzi settled on its back, the electric light of the night swiftly shot out in all directions, shattering the flying boulders, some with diameters up to several meters!

After ensuring Ye Qingzi was secure, she decisively recited an incantation, recalling the injured Purple Robe Dream Beast back into the Soul Pet Space. In the first moment, she summoned her main pet, Ice and Fire Fairy.

Ye Qingzi’s Ice and Fire Fairy had clearly gone through the Ice and Fire attribute strengthening using Spirit Items, now reaching the Seventh Rank 5th Stage!

“Ice and Fire Annihilation Map!”

The Ice and Fire Fairy had the ability to float. As soon as it was summoned by Ye Qingzi, it quickly recited the incantation and rapidly executed the powerful Ice and Fire Annihilation Map skill at the positions of three Guaiyan Guardians!

Ice and Fire Annihilation Map! A Seventh-level Ice and Fire skill!

It was evident that Ye Qingzi’s Ice and Fire Fairy’s enhancement level was very close to many Monarch Soul Pets, otherwise, it wouldn’t have been able to release a Seventh-level skill so smoothly!

Ice and fire melded together, blue-white and crimson intertwined. The power of the Ice and Fire Annihilation Map had obviously reached the Eighth level, and the three Guaiyan Guardians had no defense against such strength. Their rocky bodies disappeared within the Ice and Fire Annihilation Map.

(Today is Sunday, and tomorrow is Monday, so I can give everyone a definite update schedule.

On Monday, there will be three chapters, around noon, around six in the evening, and around twelve o’clock at night. After that, from Monday to Friday, there will be updates in this pattern: two chapters on Saturday and Sunday, at noon and six in the evening.)(To be continued.
