Chapter 546: Chapter 418: The Guardian, Chu Mu

No matter how many Desert Mad Edge Scorpions there were, under the Wind-binding Spirit’s wind type skills, they all seemed so vulnerable.

Seeing the vast number of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions swept away and torn apart by the raging wind, Chu Mu couldn’t help but sigh. If he had the Wind-binding Spirit before, he wouldn’t have needed to spend two months collecting all those poison liquids.

Nine Gale Explosions!

Nine hurricanes with eighth-level power, like nine raging torrents, tumbled in the whirl of sand. Each hurricane picked up four or five Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. Even if they couldn’t directly kill these Desert Mad Edge Scorpions in the storm, it was enough to wound them severely.

Chaos Wind Cavity!

A black wind cave condensed at the fingertips of the Wind-binding Spirit, spreading in front of it and covering a range of several hundred meters. In this area, there were nearly forty Desert Mad Edge Scorpions struggling to bury their scorpion claws deep underground to anchor themselves in the sand.

However, those Desert Mad Edge Scorpions that were very close to the mouth of the wind cave found it hard to resist. Soon, more than a dozen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were sucked into the Wind-binding Spirit’s wind cavity, their thick armor shattered, flesh and blood flying. The dense scorpion smell permeated the air, mixing with the lingering killing intent.

Ting Lan stood beside Chu Mu, staring blankly at the destructive wind attacks from Chu Mu’s Wind-binding Spirit, her mouth agape for a long time.

Ting Lan had a good memory, she could feel that this Wind-binding Spirit was the same advanced stage eighth-rank Wind-binding Spirit that had fought her Linyin Beast before and was mistakenly captured by Chu Mu. At that time, the strength of this advanced stage eighth-rank Wind-binding Spirit was just slightly stronger than her Linyin Beast.

But now, this Wind-binding Spirit had greatly improved its strength. Almost any wind type skill with an incantation time of more than one second had reached the ninth-level power. Combined with the Wind-binding Spirit’s near-instant wind control, the Wind-binding Spirit had formed a vast wind domain. In this domain, no Desert Mad Edge Scorpion could come close, and hundreds or thousands of eighth-stage Commander-level soul pets were simply the most vulnerable ants being trampled on by the Wind-binding Spirit!

It didn’t take long for nearly a hundred Desert Mad Edge Scorpion corpses to pile up around Chu Mu. Chu Mu couldn’t help but marvel at the strength of the intermediate ninth rank Monarchs, who had killed these hundreds of Scorpions in just a short time, which had taken him several days of fighting with the Demon Tree Warrior, Mo Ye, and the Ghost Dome King.

“Demon Tree Warrior, come out and sweep too,” Chu Mu chanted a spell and summoned the equally powerful group-killer Demon Tree Warrior in front of him.

When the Demon Tree Warrior first entered here, it was only at the high seventh rank, now it had reached the ninth level and the eighth rank, increasing its rank by a whole stage. Although its strength was still two levels lower than the Wind-binding Spirit, the Demon Tree Warrior was still near-instant killing the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.

Both soul pets combined to sweep through the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion army, with the Night Thunder Dream Beast specifically responsible for the ninth-ranked Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. Such a large-scale Desert Mad Edge Scorpion battle made Ting Lan feel that there was no need to intervene at all.

Ting Lan was also out for training, and she couldn’t always stand beside Chu Mu and watch. She also summoned her Linyin Beast and started attacking the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.

Through her efforts, Ting Lan had brought her Linyin Beast up to the first stage at the ninth rank, significantly increasing its strength.

“Your Linyin Beast has a strong single-target killing power. You should cooperate with my Dream Beast to deal with those ninth and close-to-ten stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpions,” said Chu Mu, glancing at Ting Lan’s majestic Linyin Beast.

Ting Lan nodded, released her soul sense, and began searching for Desert Mad Edge Scorpions with a rank of nine or higher.

The defense of the Linyin Beast was very high. Entering into this large group of eighth-ranked Desert Mad Edge Scorpions was like stepping into a group of dwarves. The Scorpions’ attacks were almost unable to break the defense of the Linyin Beast’s Dawn Battle Armor.

The Linyin Beast’s Beast-type power was equally unstoppable. In the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion army, this soul pet was unchallenged, easily following the Night Thunder Dream Beast. As soon as the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s Demon Spirit limit skill locked onto a ninth-rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpion, the Linyin Beast’s light claw would hit hard. And as soon as they were hit, the ninth-rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpions would either die or be injured.

“Chu Mu, how did you sign a soul pact with this mature Wind-binding Spirit?” Ting Lan finally couldn’t help asking.

A ninth rank third stage – intermediate Monarch, such a soul pet wireType=” />

was indeed extremely formidable in the second tier. Even Ting Lan only had an Ice and Fire Monster, a ninth rank fourth stage – intermediate Monarch, which could compete with Chu Mu’s Wind-binding Spirit!

Ting Lan also had some understanding of Chu Mu’s soul pets, knowing that their strength was not as simple as it seemed. She felt that Chu Mu’s strength might not be much inferior to her own now.

Back in Dun City, Ting Lan’s single Linyin Beast could easily defeat all of Chu Mu’s soul pets. In less than a year, Chu Mu’s strength soared and caught up to hers while her soul pets hit a bottleneck. This terrifying growth really puzzled Ting Lan; she could hardly imagine how this man had managed to improve the strength of his soul pets in such a short period.

Chu Mu explained: “I took a bottle of Memory Liquid from Shen Yicheng and obtained this mature Wind-binding Spirit after a soul cleansing.”

“Memory Liquid? Why would Shen Yicheng have something from the Soul Covenant?” Ting Lan asked.

“It should be from that Soul Covenant member called Feng Kun,” Chu Mu said.

Chu Mu’s explanation was very simple, including how he had quickly increased his strength. Even so, Ting Lan was certain that this man had gone through a completely different cultivation method in this period to forcibly raise his strength. No matter how you looked at it, there probably weren’t many people in World City who could achieve this level, and Ting Lan couldn’t help but admire Chu Mu!

…

In the past, Chu Mu took nearly two months to collect about a thousand samples of poison liquid. This time, Chu Mu only took seven days to sweep the Rear Desert Area’s Desert Mad Edge Scorpion army, collecting nearly a thousand samples of poison liquid. The ratio of the power increase couldn’t be more obvious.

Chu Mu didn’t intend to stay too long during this training session. Having witnessed the powerful wind battle power of the Wind-binding Spirit, Chu Mu’s confidence had greatly increased. The World Decree would be Chu Mu’s shocking debut, astonishing everyone!

…

“I almost forgot to tell you…” On the way back, Ting Lan suddenly remembered something and spoke to Chu Mu.

“What’s the matter?” Chu Mu asked, puzzled.

“The thing is, according to the World Decree’s requirements, each power will select a Guardian in different tiers. You’ve always been ranked highest in the third tier, and then you defeated Shen Yicheng. So, after the review of many forces, including Soul Alliance, Soul Hall, Nightmare Demon Palace, Soul Pet Palace, Business Association, and Elemental Gate, we from the Soul Hall have decided to make you the Guardian,” Ting Lan said.

“Make me the Guardian? What is a Guardian?” Chu Mu was confused.

“You don’t know the competition system of the World Decree?” Ting Lan’s beautiful eyes looked at Chu Mu.

Chu Mu shook his head. Before, Chu Mu had always asked Fox Elder, who said that the World Decree was very complicated, and that they would explain it in detail later. Recently, Chu Mu had been focusing on increasing his strength and, indeed, hadn’t taken the time to understand the competition format of the World Decree in detail.

“Alright, you training maniac, let me give you a rough explanation while we’re on our way back,” Ting Lan said with a light laugh and began to explain the meaning of a Guardian to Chu Mu.

“The so-called tiers are not the classification among the young experts but a customary agreement formed by various major powers over the years. Generally, people of a certain age group are divided into different tiers, then compete for different honors. This way, it is more fair for soul pet masters of different age groups.”

“Whether it is team competition or individual competition, it is in the form of breaking through realms. The final honor of the first tier is the Tenth Realm, the Ninth Realm is the final honor of the second tier, and the Eighth Realm is the final honor of the third tier…”

“Breaking realms, so it’s like passing stages?” Chu Mu asked in his own understanding.

“No, ‘realm’ means a stage, and every team or individual starts from the first realm. The first realms that different teams and individuals have to break through vary, and the format of each realm is different. We in the second tier have to break through nine realms, and the difficulty of each realm will increase… No one knows what they will encounter and what they have to do at a certain realm. Just like the Guardian I just mentioned… This is just one mode.”

“If you are now going to break through the fourth realm, in this stage, the competition organizer may ask you to defeat a well-known young warrior from World City. The major powers will evaluate the strength of this strong one and let them guard a realm of a certain difficulty. Only by defeating them can you enter the next realm; if you fail, you will be eliminated directly.”

“Guardians are chosen from all the young participants of the World Decree by the game organizer. As for that guardian, this defense is also part of their own realm challenge. If they successfully defend, they can enter the next realm.”

Chu Mu only roughly understood the meaning and simply thought that he was now selected as a gatekeeper of a certain stage of the World Decree.

His duty was to guard this stage and not let other contestants pass.

At the same time, guarding this stage was also a test for Chu Mu himself, and failure would result in elimination.

“Those trying to break through your guarded realm are going to have a headache,” Ting Lan said with a light laugh after seeing that Chu Mu understood the meaning of the Guardian.

“Why?” Chu Mu asked, puzzled.

“The major powers have probably underestimated your strength. They must have placed you in a slightly easier realm, but your strength has become so strong. The teams that want to defeat you, the Guardian, are doomed to suffer.” (.)
