Chapter 542: Chapter 414: Wind Spirit Tear, Ninth Stage Wind-binding Spirit (Part 1)
Having passed a month, the spiritual connection between Chu Mu and the Wind-binding Spirit had grown increasingly weak. Now, he could only recognize the general direction it was in, but whether he’d be able to find it was another question.
“Young man, you can practice here, and I’ll go first,” said Soul Hall Uncle in a carefree manner.
Chu Mu nodded his head, bidding farewell to the interesting Soul Hall Uncle.
Closing his eyes, Chu Mu attempted to find the Wind-binding Spirit through the faint spiritual connection remaining in his soul.
What surprised Chu Mu was that it seemed the Wind-binding Spirit was currently on the outer periphery of the Strong Wind Zone as well, which wasn’t the location of the Wind-binding Spirit clan.
“Forget it, let’s head in that direction and see.” Chu Mu thought for a moment and decided to go towards the Wind-binding Spirit’s location in the end.
…
The wind force on the outer periphery of the Strong Wind Zone was a significant obstacle for Chu Mu’s soul pets, which caused their combat power to decrease significantly here.
Chu Mu released his Soul Sense, sensing the surrounding Wind Element, tracing the Weak Wind trajectory he learned from the Wind-binding Spirit using the wind patterns.
Following this Weak Wind trajectory, Chu Mu struggled to move deeper into the outer periphery of the Strong Wind Zone.
The outer periphery of the Strong Wind Zone was quite broad. With Soul Hall Uncle’s strength, it took him a full two months to cross the entire Strong Wind Zone. If it was Chu Mu, it might take at least a month to move from the outer periphery into the depths of the Strong Wind Zone.
Chu Mu could feel that he was far away from the Wind-binding Spirit. Chu Mu’s main task was to enhance the strength of his soul pets, so during the journey, he was constantly summoning his soul pets to battle, but was only subconsciously moving closer to the direction of the Wind-binding Spirit.
In the following time, Chu Mu mainly focused on raising the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s rank, raising it to the Eighth Rank, Ninth Stage.
This process wasn’t easy without the assistance of spirit items.
…
For over a month, Chu Mu was in the outer periphery of the Strong Wind Zone.
Fighting, moving forward in the chilly wind, and continuing to fight, Chu Mu and his soul pets gradually grew accustomed to this harsh environment after more than fifty days. With the long-term effect of the wind force, the power suppressed by the Strong Wind Zone was gradually released, and his soul pets were no longer as weakened as before.
During these fifty days, Chu Mu’s Ice-Feathered Spirit was the first soul pet to reach the Eighth Rank, Ninth Stage as Chu Mu often used Ice Element spirit items.
Immediately after, the Night Thunder Dream Beast and Mo Ye almost simultaneously reached the Eighth Rank, Ninth Stage. Whether they could step into the Ninth Rank now depended on the effects of the spirit items.
Zhan Ye’s battle in the Wind Zone was very unfavorable. In eighty days, Zhan Ye’s strength only increased to the Eighth Rank, Seventh Stage,
The Demon Tree Warrior unsurprisingly advanced to the Eighth Rank, Ninth Stage, while the Ghost Dome King reached the Eighth Rank, Sixth Stage.
The White Nightmare Demon, which could fly, had a high frequency of appearances in the Wind Zone. This mischievous demon couldn’t stand the thought of others being stronger than it, so its strength had also increased to the Eighth Rank, Eighth Stage. As an Intermediate Monarch, its combat power was still the strongest among all of Chu Mu’s soul pets.
“I’ve gathered about 600 million from the Wind Crystal Stones, Soul Pet Crystals, and Wind Element Spirit Items, but without catching soul pets, the money comes slowly,” sighed Chu Mu.
Chu Mu’s Soul Capture Ring had already captured a Quasi-monarch young pet worth about 50 million. Adding it up, Chu Mu’s assets totaled 650 million, which was still 200 million short of his previous goal of 850 million.
Chu Mu’s supply of potions was almost depleted, and staying in the outer periphery of the Strong Wind Zone without potions was very dangerous. Moreover, after fighting tirelessly, his soul pets were extremely exhausted and in desperate need of a soul nourishment to replenish their bodies.
“Speaking of which, the Wind-binding Spirit should be nearby. I’m not sure why it came here, it’s already far away from the Tribe of Wind,” Chu Mu mumbled to himself.
During the fifty days, Chu Mu had generally moved towards the Wind-binding Spirit’s direction, but it was quite close now. However, after so much time, the faint connection between Chu Mu and the Wind-binding Spirit had completely faded, and he no longer knew where the Wind-binding Spirit, which had become a rogue wanderer, was.
“Whee~~~~~~~~~~”
A strange cry rang out in Chu Mu’s ear, then Chu Mu immediately raised his head and quickly saw a few soul pets with brown wind force swirling around their bodies fly over his head and hastily fly towards a location.
“Young Master, those are the Furious Wind Demons!” warned Fox Elder.
“Furious Wind Demons? Have I come to the territory of the Furious Wind Demon Empire?” Chu Mu looked at the muddy sky with some astonishment.
In the sky, there were a total of four brown wind figures, each about three to four meters tall. Unlike the wind element of the Spirit Clan, these Furious Wind Demons had their own unique forms, looking like witches dressed in tattered brown robes with shrill laughter similar to that of witches.
“The Furious Wind Demon Empire should be in the Destruction Wind Zone. These Furious Wind Demons were clearly sent to other Wind Zones for expansion. Seeing them rushing towards a certain place, there should be battle formations, and perhaps even the Wind-binding Spirit is there.” Master Li said.
Chu Mu nodded and immediately jumped onto the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s back, letting the Night Thunder Dream Beast fly towards the direction where the Furious Wind Demons were gathering.
The battlefield was about a thousand meters high in the Sky Wind Zone. The Night Thunder Dream Beast unfolded its Night Dance, hiding itself in this chaotic world and quickly flying towards the gathering place of all the Furious Wind Demons.
Through the chaotic winds, Chu Mu saw that more and more wind energy was gathering in the distance. The strong chaos wind even penetrated into Chu Mu’s clothes. If Chu Mu hadn’t used his Soul Sense to protect himself, his clothes would have been shattered instantaneously.
Among the countless wind type skills dancing in the sky, the figures of the brown Furious Wind Demons almost dominated this large area of airspace. The Wind-binding Spirit’s body was tiny, and even if it was here, it would be difficult for Chu Mu to find it.
“How can I tell the strength of these Furious Wind Demons?” Chu Mu observed from a distance, not daring to enter the chaotic battlefield alone.
“The ones flying over just now are the Warrior Level Furious Wind Demon Generals. The distinct characteristic is that they have three eyes with wind feathers on their crowns, similar to a witch’s hair. These wind feathers allow them to better control the power of the wind.”
“The Commander Level Furious Wind Demons are called Furious Wind Demon Leaders. Their bodies are more robust than the Furious Wind Demon Generals, and they have two wind antennae on their heads. Through these wind antennae, they have a very strong wind sensing ability, and their control over wind type skills is much stronger than the Furious Wind Demon Generals.”
“The Monarch Level Furious Wind Demons are called Furious Wind Demon Lords. Their forms are even more ferocious, and the most distinct feature is that they have two clusters of gorgeous wind feathers on top of their heads.”
“The Emperor Level Furious Wind Demons are called Furious Wind Demon Emperors, and on top of their heads is the most authoritative Wind Crown, ranking among the top few in the most powerful recognized vicious creatures of human cognition.” Master Li said.
After Master Li’s explanation, Chu Mu immediately focused on observing the Furious Wind Demons flying towards the release of wind type skills in the sky.
As expected, Chu Mu found that the Furious Wind Demons had distinct features on top of their heads, mainly composed of wind feathers and wind antennae. The ones with wind antennae had a significantly stronger attack power than those with only wind feathers.
Suddenly, among the twenty or so Furious Wind Demons, Chu Mu unexpectedly found a soul pet with a unique crown feature different from other Furious Wind Demons!
“Is that the Wind Feather crown? Isn’t that the Monarch Level Furious Wind Demon Lord?” Chu Mu asked in surprise.
“Yeah, it seems to have reached the Ninth Rank Lower Stage. The surrounding Furious Wind Demon Generals and Fury Wind Demon Leaders seem to be gathering here under its command.” Master Li said.
“Zhing~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
A sharp screech suddenly came from the chaotic sky. In the midst of the overwhelming wind type skills, a petite and agile figure suddenly flew out of the heavy encirclement and swayed in front of a solitary Furious Wind Demon General.
With its slender arms outstretched, a surge of black chaos wind erupted, tearing the Furious Wind Demon General, who had not made any defense, into shreds!
“Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo~~~~~~~~”
The fierce gale lashed, and the petite figure that had just killed the Furious Wind Demon General was quickly attacked by many Furious Wind Demons and completely engulfed in the brutal strong wind, like a speck of dust….
“It’s really it… fighting so many Furious Wind Demons alone is too difficult.” Chu Mu hurriedly let the Night Thunder Dream Beast run to rescue the Wind-binding Spirit.
Nightmare Hell!
The Night Thunder Dream Beast’s Dream Horn shimmered, and the effect of the Demon Spirit Dreamland quickly covered the Furious Wind Demons chasing the Wind-binding Spirit.
Taking advantage of the Furious Wind Demons trapped in the dream world, Chu Mu quickly summoned the White Nightmare Demon to withstand the attacks of the Furious Wind Demon Leaders.
“Zhing~~~~~~~~”
The exhausted Wind-binding Spirit noticed Chu Mu’s arrival, emitting a complex cry. Without much resistance, it allowed Chu Mu to pull it onto the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s body.
“White Demon, cover our retreat. Night, let’s leave here first.” Chu Mu gave the order.
There were many Furious Wind Demons, and with a Ninth Rank Furious Wind Demon Lord, it was very unwise to fight them. After grabbing the Wind-binding Spirit, Chu Mu didn’t care if this stubborn fellow was willing or not, and directly fled to a safe place.
The Wind-binding Spirit lay on the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s body, its eyes staring at the Ninth Rank Furious Wind Demon Lord, revealing intense killing intent. It seemed that after healing, this Wind-binding Spirit would definitely come to kill the Ninth Rank Furious Wind Demon Lord again! (.)
