Chapter 449: Chapter 324: I Used to Kill People and Hunt as a Side Activity (Part 1)
Translator: 549690339
The trap isn’t the most deadly thing; Life Siphon is.
With the use of the Life Siphon skill, the wounds on the Demon Tree Warrior created by the Level 8 Gale Burst are rapidly healing. Its vitality and combat power are also recovering at a rate of ten percent per second!
The Demon Tree Warrior’s life force is about 1.5 times stronger than that of the Storm Season Elf. After two seconds of Life Siphoning, the Storm Season Elf’s combat power is directly reduced by thirty percent!
“Light Shattering Vine!”
Luo Peng’s Light Vine skill is finally ready. Several golden vines that can bend and twist dance on the ground, trying to destroy the Ran Wood Trap laid by the Demon Tree Warrior underground.
“Ye, Destructive Light!”
“Hoo”
The Night Thunder Dream Beast raises its head, and after fully condensing the dark energy in its mouth, it sprays it directly at Luo Peng. Chu Mu doesn’t try to stop the Light Vine but instead launches a surprise attack on Luo Peng!
Luo Peng was about to chant a spell to save the Storm Season Elf, but the destructive light with the power of an early-stage Level 8 is already on its way. He has no choice but to start chanting a spell and take a defensive stance.
“Light Chant!”
A golden light screen rises to envelop Luo Peng’s body. As the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s destructive light collides with the light screen, the black energy explodes.
“Ning!”
The soul contract spell is completed almost instantaneously. Blue ice crystals continue to condense in the air, and the body of the Ice-Feathered Spirit is rapidly constructed from these dust-like ice crystals!
“Ice Crystal Sword Array!”
With almost no chant of the spell, the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s translucent hands wave, and suddenly thirty ice swords that are ten meters long dominate the sky above the battlefield, hovering with a majestic aura!
“Stack!”
“Roo~”
Surrounding the thirty Ice Swords, a blue ice appears once more, and this ice is transformed into another thirty enormous ice swords!
There are now sixty inverted Ice Crystal Swords hanging in the high altitude, each ten meters long. The cold aura emitted from the ice-cold sword edges can be clearly felt by those outside the battlefield!
However, Chu Mu’s series of well-prepared skills were not over yet. After completing the summon of the Ice-Feathered Spirit, Chu Mu continued to consume soul power while chanting spells!
“Pet Charm – Ice Sword Array!”
Twenty percent of soul power is instantly consumed, and Chu Mu’s eyes are enveloped in an ice-blue color. As Chu Mu controls the ice crystals, more and more ice dust floats in the air!
The appearance of the sixty ice swords was already astonishing, but as Chu Mu manipulated the ice power, another thirty ice swords appeared in the sky!
“It’s Intermediate Ling Ice!” Pure blue Ling Ice swords are interspersed among the sixty light blue ice swords. The difference in color signifies an even stronger ice power!
The Ice-Feathered Spirit only controls Primary Ice Crystals, but the skill that Chu Mu replicated is that of Intermediate Ice Crystals. This is the result of Chu Mu consuming ice attribute spirit items for over a year!
The power of the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s Double Layered Ice Sword Array reaches Level 8 intermediate stage. Combined with Chu Mu’s Intermediate Ice Sword Array, the power reaches Level 8 full term, which is even stronger than the Level 8 Nine Gale Explosions released by the Storm Season Elf earlier!
Luo Peng’s face turns pale, as a single light barrier skill cannot possibly defend against this Level 8 full term ice skill. As the ninety hanging ice swords filled with a destructive atmosphere are about to fall, Luo Peng quickly summons his third pet in the shortest amount of time!
“Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon!”
Rumbles of advanced solid rock appear, as a four-meter tall Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon appears in front of Luo Peng just before the Ice Sword Array arrives!
“Bang Bang Bang Bang!!!!!!!”
One by one, the ice swords fall under the control of the Ice-Feathered Spirit and Chu Mu!
The four-meter tall Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon is already considered a giant, but the length of each ice sword reaches ten meters, which is more than twice the height of the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon!
The Ice Swords bombard the body of the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon, turning into countless fragments. For every Ice Sword that the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon withstands, it staggers back several steps, and the attacked Luo Peng also continuously bears the impact of the giant ice swords, unable to release any soul skills to block for the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon!
“Seventh Rank, Ninth Stage – Peak Commanding Officer – Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon, even though rock type can restrain ice type, but how can the second-tier rock crystal – solid rock completely defend against the third-tier ice crystal – Ling Ice!”
The defense of the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon should be very outstanding, as its entire body was covered with high-grade solid rock crystals. However, the Ice Sword Array of the Ice-Feathered Spirit was made from Primary Ice Crystal, which was of a higher grade than the solid rock, let alone the Intermediate Ice Crystal Sword Array released by Chu Mu!
Distinct fissures appeared on the body of the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon, its solid rock skin was covered with ice slag, and some had already penetrated into its body, forming a slow icy air inside it!
The combat power of the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon was only at the peak Commander Level, if it were another Seventh Rank Commander Level soul pet, the combined skills of the Ice-Feathered Spirit and Chu Mu would probably kill it instantly!
“Ye, restrict the Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon and its master, Demon Tree Warrior deal with the Light Vine, Ice-Feathered Spirit eliminate the Storm Season Elf!” Chu Mu quickly changed the battle mode after completing the damage to Luo Peng’s third soul pet!
This initiative taken by Chu Mu was crucial.
The change of soul pet opponents, the Monarch-level Night Thunder Dream Beast against the Commander-level Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon, was like an adult teasing a six-year-old child, and the extra energy of the Night Thunder Dream Beast could completely restrict Luo Peng’s soul skill release!
The Demon Tree Warrior fighting Light Vine was still a clash between the Seventh Rank Monarch and the Eighth Rank Commander, and who was stronger or weaker depended on the other abilities of their respective soul pets.
Ice-Feathered Spirit versus Storm Season Elf, both were Quasi-monarchs, Seventh Rank Seventh Stage and Eighth Rank first stage, without any attribute restraint. If both were in a winning state, the Seventh Rank Seventh Stage Ice-Feathered Spirit would undoubtedly lose.
However, the Storm Season Elf had already lost 30% of its life to the Demon Tree Warrior and had been engaged in a long battle of attrition with the Demon Tree Warrior. Its current combat power was definitely less than 60% of its peak, whereas the Ice-Feathered Spirit had just hit the field, consuming only the mental power of one Ice Sword Array!
“What a keen mind! Even though both of his soul pets’ attributes are restrained by the opponent, he seized an opportunity and never gave the opponent a chance to turn the tables. I think the black-masked man definitely wants to use the Rock-type Centipede-tailed Giant Rock Demon to suppress the Ice-Feathered Spirit, but now he has no choice but to change the battle, and each of their battlefields is getting more and more open.” By now, Dakun couldn’t help but genuinely admire this youth who had snatched his soul pet!
The others had the same opinion as their team leader. To imagine the development of such a sense of battle, one must have gone through countless battles to be able to complete the skills, Soul Skills, position changes, and a series of actions so skillfully and accurately in the battlefield.
“Indeed very strong. This has to have a very deep understanding of one’s own soul pets and undergone a long period of training to be able to complete such a calm cooperation between the three soul pets and the Soul Pet Master. I think this is the advantage of training a Warrior Level soul pet to Monarch Level…. Even Luo Peng has not reached Chu Chen’s realm.” Ting Lan said quietly.
“Luo Peng cannot lose!” Teng Hai was a little anxious, even his own sister thought Chu Chen would win, but Teng Hai still insisted that his idol would not lose to someone who had just come out of nowhere.
Chu Chen had no fame, no identity, no title, just a young man who had just joined Soul Hall. Teng Hai couldn’t accept Luo Peng, who had various honors and reputation, losing to him, even though Teng Hai had to admit that Chu Chen’s strength was very strong. Teng Hai still stubbornly believed that Luo Peng was invincible among his peers!!
“Luo Peng?” Yu Sui showed a puzzled look after hearing this name, and couldn’t understand why Teng Hai suddenly became so excited about this hunting rookie king.
“Oh, oh, it’s nothing, I just compared him to Luo Peng.” Teng Hai realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and quickly corrected himself.
“That being said, I have also watched Luo Peng’s battles. Why do I feel that Chu Chen’s attack is even more aggressive than Luo Peng’s, especially that Chu Chen’s bones also reveal a hint of darkness and bloodthirsty trait!” Team Leader Dakun muttered to himself.
“Hmph, Luo Peng is definitely stronger than him, much stronger! If he were to fight Luo Peng, with the same soul pets, the result would definitely be different!” Yu Sui was the first to voice his dissatisfaction.
“Um… I have the same opinion as the team leader…” Qin River said very quietly.
Yu Sui’s face had turned stern!
“Hmph, they’ll definitely meet, and we’ll see who’s weak and who’s strong then!” Yu Sui snorted coldly.
Emotions and admiration can easily influence a person’s judgment. Ting Lan saw that Yu Sui and Teng Hai were somewhat biased, so she gently shook her head.
In fact, Ting Lan had already guessed Luo Peng’s identity when she fought against the man in the black mask. In her opinion, Chu Chen had a more awe-inspiring aura than Luo Peng. Even though he was somewhat reserved, it was still displayed during the battle.
This sharp murderous intent and the temperament to put enemies in a death situation had become a natural manifestation in battles.
Comparing the two, Ting Lan was secretly surprised. Luo Peng was already an expert in wild survival battles and was known as the “Little Wild Man.” Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been given the title of “Hunting Rookie King.”
However, Chu Chen’s realm was even higher than Luo Peng’s, so what kind of environment had he been training in? How had he developed this murderous temperament that naturally showed during battles?
“It’s hard to say who’s weak and who’s strong. In any case, the fact that he was able to enter the valley and capture the Star Phoenix Butterfly-tail bird alone shows that this kid is just as much of a wild training fanatic as Luo Peng…” Da Kun said.
“He was alone? Not in a team?” Ting Lan asked upon hearing Da Kun’s words.
“He was alone.” Da Kun’s face was filled with shame.
Ting Lan was stunned. Finally, a hint of surprise flashed across her gentle, soft, and beautiful eyes!
(Today’s first chapter)
(Yesterday and the day before, I was feeling very down and guilty. But many readers still encouraged me. I am really grateful to every reader who has motivated me. One reader’s understanding and comfort really brought tears to my eyes. “Other people’s skipped or delayed updates are common. One update is considered not in the best state, two updates are normal, three updates are an outbreak. Mistakes and delays are just trivial matters. It’s… as long as you don’t abandon the story, we will support you!”)
Because I take it seriously, mistakes can make me very anxious. When mistakes come one after another, I feel like everything is falling apart. Although this is a downward spiral, I will not give up, and I will do my best to minimize the chance of mistakes in the future. “Pet Charm” is a novel that I really like, and I hope it won’t be buried just like this. I still believe that it will be glorious someday!! Please support “Pet Charm” again!!)
(Also, you guys really make me both laugh and cry. Chapter 318 was mistakenly posted, but you guys subscribed even more. The subscription count for this chapter is strangely higher than the previous one. You guys are really here to see me embarrassed…)
