Chapter 548: Chapter 420: Li Hong, the King of the Throne for Ten Years

There were some minor issues in the strengthening process of the Night Thunder Dream Beast, and the 200 million Spirit Items did not help the Night Thunder Dream Beast break through the Eighth Stage bottleneck.

Fox Elder said that the Night Thunder Dream Beast should only be in a suppressed state, and after some time, or perhaps after experiencing a battle, it could metamorphose to the Ninth Stage.

Chu Mu knew that the bottleneck-breaking Spirit Items could not be 100% successful. After comforting the Night Thunder Dream Beast, Chu Mu began strengthening the Ice-Feathered Spirit.

In the past few months, the Ice-Feathered Spirit has gained a lot of benefits. The leap from Low-grade Monarch to Medium-grade Monarch is a considerable distance. However, after Chu Mu continuously consumed ice attribute Spirit Items during this time, the Ice-Feathered Spirit has reached the level of Medium-grade Monarch at the Eighth Rank and Ninth Stage.

Chu Mu also used the 200 million Spirit Items he had on the Ice-Feathered Spirit. For now, the Ice-Feathered Spirit was in a state of excessive nourishment, and it was difficult for it to gain any more improvements even if Chu Mu provided it with more Spirit Items. The only way to advance to the Ninth Stage was through battle.

These 200 million Spirit Items could be considered Chu Mu’s lifeline in the upcoming time. The ice attribute Spirit Items concocted by Ye Qingzi could only suppress the high temperature of Chu Mu’s soul to this extent. The World’s Chosen Competition will last for a long time, and during this time, Chu Mu will control the temperature of his soul through these 200 million ice attribute Spirit Items.

From now on, ordinary ice attribute Spirit Items will not have much effect. If Chu Mu cannot find stronger ice attribute Spirit Items within half a year, he will face the dilemma of being plundered by a half-demon.

In other words, if Liu Binglan does not bring back the Heavenly Earth Immortal Ice within half a year, Chu Mu’s life will be in danger.

After consuming 200 million Spirit Items, the Ice-Feathered Spirit did not see any improvement in strength, but it mastered a new Eighth Rank ice attribute skill without metamorphosing – Cold Falling Star.

Chu Mu was not yet familiar with the power of the skill, and only after the upcoming battles would he truly understand the power of the Eighth Rank ice attribute skill Cold Falling Star. According to Chu Mu’s estimation, reaching the Ninth Rank should not be a problem, after all, the Ice-Feathered Spirit had already become a Medium-grade Monarch.

Equipping the Soul Armor on Zhan Ye was relatively simple. After connecting the Full-state Offensive Soul Armor with Zhan Ye’s soul, Zhan Ye’s Combat Power Level also increased to Medium-grade Monarch. Next, with the combination of Courageous Sting’s Heart and Limb Regeneration, once Zhan Ye’s strength exploded, it could absolutely become a more terrifying than the Wind-binding Spirit.

…

After completing all the enhancements, Chu Mu deliberately adjusted for a period of time before accepting the bounty and headed towards the familiar Ancient Wasteland.

Chu Mu was headed to the Horror Wolf Desert. During his last visit, Chu Mu had an extremely difficult time and had to rely on the strength of all his Soul Pets to escape successfully.

When Chu Mu stepped in this time, he had nothing to fear. Even if faced with a Tenth Rank Horror Wolf, Mo Ye and the Wind-binding Spirit could easily deal with it. As long as Chu Mu did not encounter the Tenth Rank Horror Wolves that had self-strengthened to Monarch level or a pack of Horror Wolves, he could proceed without any worries.

The killing process of the Horror Wolves did not take Chu Mu much time. Once the 100 million bounties were mostly completed, the World’s Chosen Competition was approaching quickly.

…

The World’s Chosen Competition begins seven days before the event!

…

On the opening day, countless young expert gathered in the World Throne Plaza, and Li Hong, the strongest Soul Pet Master who owns the World Throne, also appeared in front of everyone.

The peak of Soul Pet Master refers to such a man!

When he appeared in the magnificent golden hall of the highest authority, the whole World City boiled with cheers from countless young generation members. They could not remain calm in front of such a strong person, as there were countless people who had stepped into the peak of the young generation and were looking up to the glory and halo of this man throughout their lives.

“I just returned from the east and saw you children who just crawled out of the cradle. Perhaps in your eyes, the World Throne is everything. In fact, the world is vast, and the small golden hall and golden throne cannot explain the true peak. I believe that not only someone among you will sit on this throne, but some will even surpass me!” The World Emperor Li Hong glanced at the young generation who looked like believers and spoke with a majestic voice.

Every strong Soul Pet Master has their beliefs, for supreme glory, for the strongest Soul Pets, for controlling more power and wealth;

To stand on top of the heads of those who once looked down on them, to surpass a powerful idol since childhood, and to obtain a woman who is high above the rest.

In the hearts of all men, the World Throne has everything—glory, power, wealth, strength, dignity, and women.

Everything one desires can be achieved through the throne. Any young person who steps onto the path of being a Soul Pet Master will ultimately hold this as their highest belief. Even in the face of dangers and life-and-death situations, they will relentlessly climb the golden staircase, no matter how many blood-drenched corpses lay on it.

…

“He’s the only one who can contend with the Azure Sky Hidden Dragon.” Chu Mu took a deep breath and spoke in a calm tone that held back his emotions.

“Yes, quite far away.” said the Fox Elder.

Chu Mu also had his own desires: the supreme honor that could bring tears to his father’s eyes; the power that could make the tyrannical Soul Covenant fear; and the dignity he lost from the renegade soul pet.

Standing in the bustling World Plaza, Chu Mu did not feel overwhelmed by the countless young warriors. Instead, he felt an intense urge to stand out from this ocean of powerful fighters. This was a cruel and realistic challenge, with countless Soul Pet Masters in the vast world all vying for a spot on the World Throne – once every ten years.

Chu Mu wondered in which decade he would find himself sitting where the man in the golden robe now sat, looking down from his lofty position at the Soul Pet Masters standing in the plaza just like he was now, telling them to let everyone surpass him!

…

“Chu Mu, haven’t we seen that woman at the Wogu City’s Great Chu Noble Family before?” Ye Wansheng shove his arm, pointing at a veiled woman sitting in a noble seat.

“Yes, she’s the Little Princess of the Nightmare Demon Palace.” Chu Mu nodded, his gaze falling on the princess, who always seemed to carry a hint of mystery.

Her veil obscured her stunning face, revealing only a pair of intelligent and calm eyes. Numerous flatterers and pursuers surrounded her, and every time Chu Mu saw her, he felt the need to look up at her, as there was always a high distance and a group of people with high status between them.

Once, Chu Mu regarded her as the woman of his dreams, moved by her noble beauty and kind nature, even having had a few small stories with her in the Western World.

However, the rational Chu Mu chose to distance himself. Such a woman would never lack pursuers or those who would devote themselves loyally to her. Chu Mu would not become one of them, nor would he expend all of his efforts on her because he knew that unless he truly surpassed her position, his actions would be meaningless and would not stir a ripple in her heart.

“Aren’t you the Soul Hall Young Master? Why is it that the Nightmare Demon Palace’s Little Princess is treated so well, and you end up standing amongst the crowd like us? With your status, you should at least be sitting beside her.” Ye Wansheng said.

“I have always respected my own strength. Whether I sit above or stand here, it makes no difference to me.” answered Chu Mu.

“Ambitious! Hahaha! Well, let’s be so-called ‘grass-root experts’ then. Have you remembered those who sit on high positions? Anytime we encounter a smug opponent in the World Decree, we’ll harshly trample them and see what capital these so-called ‘Young Generation’ warriors possess.” Ye Wansheng laughed freely.

Chu Mu did not participate in the World Decree as the Soul Hall Young Master, nor did he form a team of elites like other junior masters and powerful factions. In his growth path, no background or ulterior motives granted him any power.

Chu Mu made it to his current position one step at a time, so Ye Wansheng was indeed right – he was a grass-root expert.

…

The Soul Hall and Nightmare Demon Palace may be in conflict, but in public occasions, both sides try to save face and act cordially, without treating each other like mortal enemies.

Following the opening ceremony, there was an exchange among the major powers where they schemed, formed alliances, or provoked each other in secret… This gathering was like a staging ground for the World, where the young expert Soul Pet Masters from all major powers were placed in a hall, allowing them to create sparks and make the World Decree even more competitive.

“Why do I feel like you’re avoiding the Little Princess of the Nightmare Demon Palace?” Ye Qingzi asked Chu Mu with her beautiful eyes.

Chu Mu had the opportunity to interact with the Little Princess of Nightmare Demon Palace just now, and it was evident that Princess Jinrou was interested when she learned Chu Mu’s name, as if waiting for him to approach and make small talk.

However, Chu Mu hesitated. Ye Qingzi was by his side, and she remembers that Chu Mu had some issues with Princess Jinrou in the Wogu Domain. It seemed unnecessary for Chu Mu to avoid her like this.

“She knows some of my secrets, and I don’t know her stance now. It’s safer to keep some distance at this point. Qingzi, don’t think too much.” Chu Mu explained.

“Who’s overthinking it?” Ye Qingzi rolled her eyes, suddenly feeling that Chu Mu had grown more brazen. (.)
