Chapter 1136 - Chapter 1136 Chapter 1001 Longing for Death Quite Difficult
Chapter 1136: Chapter 1001: Longing for Death, Quite Difficult Chapter 1136: Chapter 1001: Longing for Death, Quite Difficult Three days before the duel, all of Wanxiang City was abuzz with the news.
This duel was going to be far more influential than Chu Mu’s initial battle with Mo Ling, not just because of the appearance of these two individuals, but also the rising Mu Qingyi and the mysterious Heavenly Son; many were eager to see the powerful soul pets of these two experts, who had long stood at the Dominator Lord level.
The entire Wanxiang City was in an uproar over this matter; some even speculated that this could very well be the first battle in an imminent war between the two camps, with the outcome directly affecting which would eventually command the Wanxiang Realm.
Regardless of the rumors, the magnitude of this duel had already surpassed any previous confrontations!
The Soul Alliance and the Three Great Palaces were both making preparations for the duel, setting up defenses just in case.
However, while everyone else was busy and tense, Chu Mu, the person involved, was leisurely spending his time in the forest outside the city with his little wife, laughing and chatting, showing affection, looking content and carefree, hardly like someone about to face a fierce battle.
Chu Mu was naturally training Little Dream of Death outside the city. Little Dream of Death was very belligerent, and as a Nirvana Rebirth phoenix, it seemed to have inherited some of Dark Thunder Death Dream’s combat techniques and even had rich battle experience. In the past, when training Little Hiding Dragon, Chu Mu had to teach it hand by hand and instill various skills, but this Dark Thunder Death Dream was born a little battle monster. In a short time, it had already challenged all the little overlords in the city forest, and the result was that these little lords now fled upon seeing the Dream of Death, no longer daring to dominate the surrounding forest; instead, Dream of Death felt that the soul pets here were of too low a stage and level to be stimulating.
In the three days, while Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi playfully bantered, Little Dream of Death also advanced a stage, reaching the Seventh Stage.
This growth rate was somewhat slow. After the duel ended, Chu Mu still needed to head east as soon as possible to get the Growth Spring water because the conflict between the Soul Alliance and the Three Great Palaces seemed to be deepening, with a rumor that an Elder had recently fallen in another city.
…
Cold snow flurried in the fierce wind. Normally, in such a winter season, ordinary people would be reluctant to leave their homes without special reasons.
Today, the snow fell heavily, and by noon, the land was still a vast expanse of white; the snowstorm showed no sign of abating its fury, constantly lashing at the forests outside the city…
The east side of Wanxiang City was East Pingyuan, where several forests spread across the plain, all of which had bowed their heads under the ravages of the heavy snow by now.
The thick snow was likely deep enough to reach one’s knees, and the howling wind intertwined with the dancing snowflakes, the world a white expanse!
The simple color of the snowy landscape represented the season’s serene grandeur, filling people with longing for nature. But it was the same color that, agitated and fierce in motion, filled people with awe of nature!
At noon during the snowstorm, several Soul Pet Masters began to gather on the plain.
For lower-level Soul Pet Masters, the wind and snow had a significant impact, but as their level increased, all of this just became embellishments. There was no longer talk of using terrain for battle among Soul Pet Masters, unless the terrain was a deathtrap…
The Three Great Palaces camp, the Soul Alliance camp, and the Neutral Forces were now the evident tripartite division of Wanxiang Realm.
Of course, the Neutral Forces were composed of numerous loose and small forces; they would inevitably be slowly eroded and absorbed by the Soul Alliance and the Three Great Palaces in the future.
“Heavenly Son, they are here,” Mo Ling said in a low voice beside Wu Kuang.
By now, Mo Ling had completely become Wu Kuang’s lackey, with an attitude of abject reverence that was somewhat contrived!
“Only she has come, one of them is as good as dead as soon as they set foot here,” Wu Kuang said with a smile.
Unsurprisingly, Chu Fangchen had arrived, which greatly pleased Wu Kuang. He had genuinely worried that Chu Fangchen might choose to flee, in which case he would have needlessly revealed his own strength!
“Is that Chu Fangchen?” Xiong Fu Xia Zhixian stood quietly to the side, her eyes, filled with a touch of seductive charm, surveyed the recently renowned Chu Fangchen from a distance.
“Are you interested in him?” Wu Kuang asked, raising his eyebrows.
“The Heavenly Son jests. Chu Fangchen emerged out of nowhere in Snow City, then defeated Zhu Chao in Spirit City, and a year ago, our Lord Xiong Mo nearly lost his beloved pet because of him…” Xia Zhixian spoke with gentle elegance, her soft tone almost sounding like praise.
Wu Kuang, the Emperor, felt uncomfortable upon hearing this and said indifferently, “Could it be that Master Xia Hua thinks today he can win as usual? If so, would you dare to make a wager with me?”
“A wager?” Xia Zhixian didn’t understand what Wu Kuang meant.
“You can bet on Chu Fangchen and Mu Qingyi winning. If that truly happens, I will give you the Flower type Xuan Object that my master gifted me,” Wu Kuang said with a confident smile.
“Xuan Object?” Xia Zhixian’s eyes lit up.
Xuan Objects were almost impossible to find. Originally, the Empress had set up an elaborate scheme in Rong City, all to acquire that Xuan Object. Who would have thought it would be snatched away by the Silver Demon? Because of this, the Empress had lost her appetite for a long time.
Although Wu Kuang spoke of only a remnant of a Xuan Object, such a thing, if one could find a way to repair and replenish it, could become a genuine Xuan Object that could forge a Dominator level Soul Pet!
How could Xia Zhixian not be tempted by such an item?
However, Xia Zhixian wasn’t the kind of young girl who could be easily lured. She smiled gracefully and said, “And what if I lose?”
Wu Kuang also smiled, his eyes revealing a fervent desire as he said without any attempt to disguise it, “If that happens, then Master Xia Hua can simply dedicate her body to me. Perhaps the reason Master Xia Hua has yet to find a satisfactory suitor is simply because I, Wu Kuang, have not yet appeared. After today’s battle, Master Xia Hua won’t need to be alone anymore.”
Wu Kuang’s words made Xiong Mo Moling, Ju Que of the Eight Desolates, Long Jue Wen Luo, and other trace and examination position experts all sigh in admiration. Only Emperor Wu Kuang dared to flirt with Flower Hero Xia Zhixian like this. If anyone else were to try, they would surely meet a splendid death beneath Xia Zhixian’s elegantly smiling visage!
“Let’s forget about it. The outcome of this battle has already been decided, so where is the need to speak of any wager?” Xia Zhixian said with a gentle smile, tactfully rejecting the temptation Wu Kuang was offering.
Xia Zhixian’s response was both skillful and clear, rejecting him while also indicating that Wu Kuang was sure to win. This left Wu Kuang feeling quite comfortable, so he continued to jest, “Actually, I, Wu Kuang, have always been generous to women. Regardless of the outcome of this bet, Master Xia Hua, you will still obtain what you desire.”
Xia Zhixian merely smiled and did not speak, for dedicating her body for a mere remnant of a Xuan Object was not something she believed her worth amounted to.
…
The Soul Alliance naturally had a swarm of experts to bolster their ranks, and likewise, the Three Great Palaces were not short of experts either. This invisibly became another contest between the two Major Powers.
Last time, Xiong Mo Moling suffered a severe defeat, which had a serious impact on the morale of the Soul Alliance. With Emperor Wu Kuang showing up this time, it was naturally a chance to wash away that disgrace and then leave an inextinguishable shadow of defeat over everyone in the Three Great Palaces!
Meanwhile, Chu Mu and Mu Qingyi slowly made their way inside the range of the Battle Barrier.
A Dominator’s destructive power was extraordinary. If a skill went astray, it would surely fly straight toward Wanxiang City, resulting in death and injuries on impact. Hence, the Neutral Forces had to ensure that the Barrier project was well-prepared.
Of course, the Barrier was merely a safety shield. Whether it could truly hold off a Dominator level skill was really hard to say. Therefore, the Battlefield was set up as far from the City as possible, and right out of the City on the eastern side, fifty kilometers away, a large group of Earth attribute Soul Pet Masters had piled up an artificial Mountain Range to serve as a barrier against the energy.
All these preparations had begun three days ahead.
“Chu Fangchen, do you see the woman in the yellow coat standing amid the Soul Alliance Camp?” Mu Qingyi whispered to Chu Mu.
“The pretty one?” Chu Mu glanced over and noticed several women in yellow coats, but among them, the maturely charming Beautiful Woman stood out–it was none other than Flower Hero Xia Zhixian!
“Is that how you distinguish women?” Mu Qingyi murmured to herself, not expecting such a comment from Chu Mu.
“Heh, it’s just the first impression upon a glance,” said Chu Mu offhandedly.
“That is Xia Zhixian. If she is the one to face off against Emperor Wu Kuang, we stand no chance of victory,” said Mu Qingyi.
“Yeah, I experienced her support capabilities in Xiangrong City myself. The strength of the Eight Desolates Bin Liao is probably not much stronger than that of Poisonous Desolation, but with her assistance, they could confront a Dominator level spirit pet head-on,” Chu Mu nodded.
Xia Zhixian’s presence here was to a large extent to protect Xiong Mo Moling. With her around, it was likely that their side would find it very difficult to sustain any casualties.
“It seems it will be hard to kill Mo Ling this time,” Mu Qingyi said somewhat dejectedly.
“We have Qingzi with us, and neither your Soul Pets nor mine are likely to be in any life-threatening danger,” said Chu Mu.
Qingzi might not be as strong as Xia Zhixian, but she was a Spirit Master after all. The combination of a Support Soul Pet Master and Spirit Art made it very hard for death to occur under her watch, especially in battles where the difference in strength wouldn’t be overwhelmingly great.
In the current situation, unless they could manage to kill the opponent outright in an instant, if any life-threatening danger presented itself, the supporting experts would surely step in to prevent it, and then the Spirit Master or Support Soul Pet Master would have time to rescue. With the abilities of Qingzi and Xia Zhixian, it was likely that if there was still a breath in someone, they could be brought back to life…
As they spoke, Chu Mu and Mu Qingyi had already entered the center of the Battlefield.
At this moment, Xiong Mo Moling and Emperor Wu Kuang had also arrived and faced them without a shred of fear, even displaying a touch of frivolousness in their eyes.
