Chapter 312: Chapter 276: Ice Crystal Worm, The Unknown Evil God_2

Chen Mo lit the Soul Protecting God Lamp, purifying the evil aura within these crystal cores.

These ice crystal cores could be ground into powder to make pastries and delicacies like snow mesmerizers, enhancing the growth level of ice-type spiritual beasts.

"Whoa!"

Just as Chen Mo was collecting the crystal cores, Xiao Jiu suddenly felt a sense of crisis deep within its heart.

It let out a warning cry, and Chen Mo subconsciously looked up.

What came into view was a massive white torrent, surging towards them with great force.

It was a monstrous snow avalanche!

Clearly, it had been triggered by Bing Lan’s excessive force just now!

The momentum of the avalanche was so ferocious that Chen Mo didn’t have time to return to the back of the Isolated Island Spirit.

However, he didn’t panic at all and directly entered the Heart of the Sea, then brought the spiritual beasts into the Spiritual Space.

As the Heart of the Sea tumbled along with the avalanche, Chen Mo and the spiritual beasts leisurely enjoyed the spectacle of the snowslide.

Watching the entire process of an avalanche from within was indeed a rare experience.

After the avalanche ended, the Isolated Island Spirit slowly ascended.

With the wash of the avalanche, the snow-capped mountain had turned into a "baldy."

"Huh? What’s this?"

Soon, Chen Mo noticed a faint blue glow at the foot of the mountain encircled by a chaotic array of stones—it looked like ancient ruins!

"Star Sea, let’s go have a look."

The Isolated Island Spirit moved downward, and soon Chen Mo arrived at the pile of rubble.

In the center of the rubble was an altar-like crude structure, with collapsed columns engraved with worm patterns.

"It really is an ancient ruin."

This ancient ruin had originally been buried beneath the Snow Sea and was fully exposed to Chen Mo’s view only after the avalanche.

At the center of the dilapidated altar was a column emitting a faint blue light, which had attracted Chen Mo’s attention with its fluorescence.

Surrounding the column were twelve pits, each inlaid with a gray-brown coin.

Outside these pits, white lines sketched out the pattern of a gigantic ice crystal worm.

Unlike the ice crystal worms Chen Mo had encountered before, this massive worm was covered in sharp bone spikes, and it even had 10 pairs of huge wings on its back.

"Which Evil God is this?"

There was no record of this Evil God in any of the books on such deities that Chen Mo had come across.

Chen Mo speculated—

Thousands of years ago, there might have been a tribe here that worshipped this Evil God, built temples and altars, but later disappeared for unknown reasons.

At this moment, the small blue bird by Chen Mo suddenly flapped its wings and headed somewhat crookedly toward the blue-lit column.

Chen Mo immediately took out the Soul Protecting God Lamp, sensing something amiss.

Bing Lan had been controlled by some evil power!

It was that ice column!

As the warm light of the lamp shone, the small blue bird instantly returned to normal.

"Bing Lan, are you alright?"

"Chirp!"

Coming back to its senses, Bing Lan felt a twinge of fear; it had suddenly heard the whispers of the Evil God wanting to lure it to pour ice spiritual power into the column.

That whisper of the Evil God was terrifying. As soon as it sounded, its consciousness fell into a hazy state, and it subconsciously followed the whisper’s directive.

Luckily, Chen Mo intervened.

"Can only ice-type spiritual beasts hear the call?"

Chen Mo fell into contemplation.

Neither he nor any of the other spiritual beasts heard anything like that; only Bing Lan did, and it was lured to imbue spiritual power into the ice column...

"Could it be that this mountain is the resting place or seal of this worm-shaped Evil God? And infusing spiritual power into the column would undo the seal?"

Chen Mo guessed and, after some thought, had the small blue bird cover it with snow.

He wasn’t planning to continue exploring for now.

Curiosity killed the cat, and if he unleashed an Evil God, his sin would be great.

The most important thing for Spirit Masters while exploring in the Spirit Realm is to remain vigilant.

Of course, before leaving, Chen Mo casually took the 12 ancient coins on the altar.

Those things looked quite valuable.

Sister Meng seemed to be interested in such ancient objects, and her spirit-controlling talent was related to them too.

Sure, I can bring it back for Sister Meng.

After all, Chen Meng had helped quite a bit for Chen Mo to get to where he is today.

Chen Mo returned to Blue Star and glanced at the Spirit Control Bracelet, only to find that just half a day had passed.

His efficiency was simply too great!

The next two days were spent in unremarkable training.

On January 23rd, the World Championship round of 32 was held at the top of Kunlun Mountain.

Bai Ze University’s round of 32 opponent was assigned to be Dade Spirit University from Gaul Empire.

Dade is a mythological creature of the Gaul Empire, with body and legs like a lizard, head like a cat, mane like a horse, and a short tail like a venomous snake. It symbolizes bravery and loyalty.

Dade University also achieved a victorious record in the group matches with considerable strength.

Every team that made it to the round of 32 was strong, with captains having at least one Commander High Rank Spiritual Beast. The captain from Star Flag Country even summoned a Quasi-monarch stage Spiritual Beast, doubtlessly a hot favorite for the championship.

Upon discovering their opponent was Bai Ze University, everyone from Dade University had disappointed expressions.

Such terrible luck.

They might as well start packing for home now...

"Captain Chen, are you going up first for this match?"

Xia Yue Mei asked.

Chen Mo shook his head, oozing confidence: "You guys get some practice in, I’ll close the show."

"Thank you, Captain Chen!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Bowen and the others sincerely expressed their thanks.

A captain who both provides opportunities for his own teammates to shine and can sweep through the competition, where else could you find such a leader?

The competition soon began.

On the side of Gaul Empire, the first to enter the fray was their vice-captain, a tall and fair-haired blue-eyed girl.

From Bai Ze University, Xia Yue Mei stepped forward.

Both Spiritual Beasts were of Sixth Rank Commander level, but Xia Yue Mei, with her Forest Giant Frog and the dual Grass-type combination of Holy Vine Guardian, managed to gain the upper hand by using a "Poison Milk" tactic, securing the first round victory.

Both Xia Yue Mei and Xia Bowen are members of the Qinling Xia Family, who are quite adept in cultivating Grass-type Spiritual Beasts and are among the top-notch Spirit-controlling Families within Dongxia Country.

However, Xia Yue Mei fell in the second round.

The second participant from Gaul Empire commanded the Fire Element Spirit Beast, Flashing Flame Lion King, also of the Sixth Rank Commander level. With elemental advantage, it easily defeated Xia Yue Mei’s Spiritual Beasts.

In the 2v2 arena match, having two Spiritual Beasts of the same element made them easily targeted by their opponent’s counters.

After an intense battle, Dade University was left with just their captain, Alex.

Alex looked wild and unrestrained, summoning a Sixth Rank Commander level super weapon class Spiritual Beast, the Sun Spear, and a Seventh Rank Commander level Super Sound Sparrow.

Standing at the center of the arena, he held the Sun Spear aloft, ready to strike.

When a Spirit Master’s Spiritual Beast is a weapon class Spiritual Beast, the Spirit Master can also fight alongside it.

At this point, four members of Bai Ze University had already been eliminated.

Victory or defeat would be decided in this moment!

"Brother Mo, it’s all on you!"

Hao Lei said to Chen Mo before leaving the field.

Chen Mo nodded, slowly walking onto the field.

Instantly, cheers erupted around the viewing stands.

Due to Chen Mo’s outstanding performance in the group stages, this round of 32 match drew a high level of attention, with several times more reporters and spectators than other matches.

Chen Mo’s Spiritual Beasts were highly popular, almost more so than the combined popularity of other participants’ Spiritual Beasts, unquestionably making him a "star player."

At this moment, Alex’s Super Sound Sparrow was constantly casting speed-enhancing abilities like "Dance of Wind" and "Shadow Rush" on itself.

Chen Mo didn’t waste any time, immediately summoning the Time Rice Dumpling Spirit and the Snow Sea Spirit.

As he summoned them, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure sitting in the front row of the stands.

"Eh? Sister Meng!?"

Chen Meng was dressed in a light purple floral dress, with her black hair spilling over her shoulders. She sat quietly in the front row, exuding a serene and peaceful aura.

Seemingly feeling Chen Mo’s gaze, she smiled and waved.

Chen Mo waved back, a flutter of excitement unexpectedly rising in his heart.

"This match has to be won in style..."

He thought to himself, then glanced at Alex on the opposite side.

"Bro, sorry about this."
