Chapter 603: Chapter 474: The Three Great Main Pets, Taking on a Critical Mission (Part 3)

Chu Mu had heard from Fox Elder before that most of the Monarch-level Soul Pets of Tenth Rank could only be found in the first tier. It was almost impossible for them to appear in the second tier.

Now, the Fiery Sun Rhinoceros that Ling He had summoned was a Tenth Rank Intermediate Monarch. No wonder he had the strength to compete with the first tier. This Tenth Rank Intermediate Monarch had already surpassed many ordinary strong ones in the first tier!

“Mo Ye!” Chu Mu immediately issued an order to Mo Ye, allowing it to fight against the Lightning King.

Mo Ye had been promoted to the Ninth Rank Second Stage, and there was a gap of seven whole stages between it and the Lightning King! The effect of the Double Crown Flame could probably make up for the three-stage gap, but there was still a four-stage difference in strength between the two.

Chu Mu’s Soul Power was almost zero at this point, making it impossible for him to use Soul Skills to enhance Mo Ye’s combat power. He could only rely on Mo Ye’s battle experience and talent to contend with the Lightning King.

The power of the Lightning King’s thunder and lightning was not weak either. Each swipe of its Claw Blade carried a powerful electric shock effect. This effect could paralyze a Soul Pet’s limbs, and after enduring multiple attacks, its movements would become slower and slower until it couldn’t move at all.

Chu Mu did not ask Mo Ye to attack, as the gap in strength between Mo Ye and the Lightning King was still four stages. If they were to confront each other directly, Mo Ye would soon be defeated.

Chu Mu’s strongest White Demon had already joined the battle against the Fiery Sun Rhinoceros. The Fiery Sun Rhinoceros had an extremely aggressive attack, and as long as there was sunlight, this Soul Pet could tread on the air at will, making the White Demon’s flying advantage useless.

The battle didn’t last long, and Chu Mu’s Mo Ye and White Demon were both in a disadvantaged state. If it weren’t for Chu Mu’s frequent overmatching challenges, making his Soul Pets accustomed to facing stronger opponents, Chu Mu would have already been defeated by now due to the clear strength gap.

“Mo Ye, White Demon, let’s go!” Chu Mu decisively chose to retreat.

Chu Mu’s purpose for coming here was not to fight Ling He, but to deliberately hold him off so he wouldn’t press them so hard.

Seeing that the situation was dire, Chu Mu naturally couldn’t let his Soul Pets continue to fight!

“Woo woo woo~~~~~~~~~”

Even though Mo Ye’s strength was not as great as the Lightning King’s, it was not too difficult to escape the battle, thanks to the powerful evasive ability of its Nine-Tailed Illusion form.

The White Demon’s movements were already incredibly strange; the Fiery Sun Rhinoceros was stronger, but nowhere near as fast as the White Demon. After the White Demon used its demon charm shadow, it quickly left the battlefield.

“You can’t run!” Ling He had already guessed Chu Mu’s intentions. As he recited his spell again, he was clearly about to summon another Soul Pet, and it was likely to be as fast as the Lightning King!

“Roar roar roar!!!!!!!!!”

As Ling He recited the spell, Battle, which had been waiting still in the high valley, let out a roar. In an instant, black Death Light fell from above and accurately hit the fragile and steep stone wall!!

“Boom!!!!!!!!!!”

The Destructive Light Energy burst open, causing the towering stone wall to shake violently. The rocks at the top fell immediately!!

Mo Ye and White Demon had both jumped to the top, but when the huge rocks fell from several hundred meters high, the White Demon quickly used its Displacement Demon Shadow ability to appear at the top and quickly floated to Chu Mu’s side.

With Mo Ye’s agile movements, when sprinting towards the top, it used the tumbling boulders as a springboard, freely shuttle through the rolling rocks left and right!

The Lightning King actually came very close. When Mo Ye was running towards the high valley, the Lightning King turned into a lightning bolt and chased after him.

However, the Lightning King’s evasion ability was still inferior to Mo Ye’s. As it followed the rolling boulders halfway up the high ground, it was hit by a massive rock and pressed heavily from a hundred meters high to the low depths.

Facing the numerous falling boulders from the sky, Ling He still did not stop his spell and continued to chant in place.

As block after block of rock crashed down, the Fiery Sun Rhinoceros beside him shook its body, and suddenly all the rolling boulders were turned into dust!!

The soul pet pattern slowly emerged beside Ling He, and Ling He’s other soul pet appeared imposingly within the pattern. If Chu Mu was still here, he would definitely feel that the aura of the soul pet summoned by Ling He was even more formidable than the already powerful Fiery Sun Rhinoceros!!

The rolling boulders rumbled for a long time. When Chu Mu had walked through this low valley before, he had thought this was a pretty good spot. So even if Ling He was prepared, he still fell short in understanding the terrain and was successfully stalled by Chu Mu before escaping.

However, Ling He wasn’t in a hurry. After summoning his third pet, he continued chasing towards the east. He was sure that Chu Mu deliberately stopped here to hinder him for a purpose. As long as he searched carefully, Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou wouldn’t be able to escape.

…

Chu Mu deliberately took several detours, confusing Ling He’s direction before returning to the place where he and Princess Jinrou had separated earlier.

Although Princess Jinrou had learned some techniques for walking without leaving footprints, for a veteran soul pet master like Chu Mu, the significance wasn’t huge. Chu Mu could easily track down the places where Princess Jinrou had walked with a little attention.

Following the path taken by Princess Jinrou, Chu Mu wiped out all traces of her footprints that might be discovered and marked many points on every fork in the road, further confusing Ling He and the other killers in their pursuit.

After doing all these, Chu Mu felt extremely exhausted, his spirit was pushed to its limit.

“White Demon, Mo Ye, Zhan Ye…from now on…it’s all up to you guys.” Chu Mu, knowing his spirit was at its peak, reminded his three Great Main Pets once again.

“Woo woo woo~~~~~~~” Mo Ye stuck out its tongue and licked Chu Mu’s hand.

Chu Mu’s hands were completely pale, with bulging veins that looked terrifying.

Chu Mu touched Mo Ye’s fluffy ears and spoke with a somewhat weak voice, “My enemy is my first soul pet, she signed a soul pact with me before you guys. But now, she has betrayed me and is no longer my soul pet or your companion!”

“She is my greatest enemy, and I cannot lose, whether it’s this time or in the World Decree. You have to help me keep fighting, understand?”

White Demon, Mo Ye, and Zhan Ye all nodded their heads firmly.

Chu Mu’s three Great Main Pets had been with Chu Mu for a long time. Their hearts were connected to Chu Mu’s, and they could feel the strong fighting spirit in Chu Mu’s heart. Just like their soul pets had their own dignity, Chu Mu had his own dignity. They knew that this battle represented Chu Mu’s honor! (To be continued.
