Chapter 1242: Chapter 1106: Battle Again at the Lost Wilderness Garden Chapter 1242: Chapter 1106: Battle Again at the Lost Wilderness Garden Xiangrong City

After the war ended, Chu Mu found himself in a state where cultivation seemed meaningless. This state of idleness was occasionally pleasant; he would chat with Old Man Chen about various knowledge, accompany Ye Qingzi to gather Spirit Medicine, or sit in the courtyard reading a difficult book on a bright afternoon.

However, if this lasted too long, Chu Mu would become restless. His nature was inherently belligerent, and without battle, he even felt as if his heartbeat would stop.

But wanting to fight presented Chu Mu with a significant problem.

Firstly, there wasn’t anymore Mysterious Realm within the World Realm and Wanxiang Realm that Chu Mu was afraid to enter or challenge. Even finding a place for the Wind-binding Spirit, Ice-Feathered Spirit, or the Ghost Dome King to train was becoming difficult.

During this time, Chu Mu made another trip to the Lost Wilderness Garden.

The Lost Wilderness Garden was an Ancient Fierce Land where the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Tree resided, housing a vast Demon Tree Empire and was highly suitable for the Demon Tree Warriors to train.

Chu Mu possessed a Wood Mysterious Object that had nurtured the Demon Tree Warrior for a long time. Following that, Ye Qingzi helped Chu Mu collect many Wood Spirit Items in Xiangrong City, providing sufficient resources for the Demon Tree Warrior’s advancement in strength. What was missing was a thorough baptism through battle.

When heading to the Lost Wilderness Garden, Chu Mu also visited Old Man Han and Old Lady Wen in their wooden house.

Although the two elders had already learned about the great defeat of Alliance Master Ling Chan through some channels, they were still shocked when Chu Mu elaborated on the details.

The inexplicable fall of the city, the failure of the Seven Great Holy Kings to summon aid, the ambush by the Flower Demon Army, the betrayal of Li Hong, the strongest among the Three Great Palaces, the invincible behavior of Alliance Master Ling Chan’s Slaughter Beast, the Queen of Good and Evil’s one hand covering the sky.

All these were unthinkable to the two elders, and the fact that there was a decisive victory despite the enemy’s strength multiplying several times was truly extraordinary.

“Chu Mu, haven’t you heard that War General Level Soul Pets cannot step into the Dominator Level?” Old Man Han stroked his beard and said softly to Chu Mu.

Servant-level Creatures cannot step into Emperor level, War General-level Creatures cannot step into Dominator, and the strong Soul Emperors are all very aware of this. So when Chu Mu mentioned taking the Demon Tree Warrior to the Lost Wilderness Garden to elevate it to Dominator, Old Man Han thought it unrealistic, even with a Wood Mysterious Object.

This was a restriction of the species, as well as the highest degree they can be strengthened to; no creature could break this limit unless they undergo a Race Mutation.

“I am confident,” said Chu Mu.

“Well, trying isn’t bad, but don’t force it if it really doesn’t work out. Our Mysterious Objects in the World Realm and Wanxiang Realm are hard to find, and it would be very difficult to find another if wasted,” Old Man Han didn’t push it, understanding that some truths are better experienced by the Soul Pet Master himself.

…

Upon entering the Lost Wilderness Garden again, Chu Mu went straight for the Demon Tree Empire that had once forced him to flee in disarray.

Looking out, the sea of green was calm yet spectacular, with densely packed treetops showing no gaps in between. Standing in the forest, whether it was daytime or night, the sky was obscured.

Chu Mu could no longer distinguish how much of this green sea was made up of real plants and how much was Demon Trees enjoying their spring slumber. In any case, since the Demon Tree Warrior was supposed to train, they would definitely be the main force in this battle.

Most of the periphery of the Demon Tree Empire comprised Ten-Eyed and Hundred-Pupil Demon Trees. Such level creatures, if in the tens of thousands, posed a significant threat to the Demon Tree Warrior.

The territory of the Demon Tree Empire was vast, and it was at least two hundred kilometers away from the location of the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Tree. Under these circumstances, a battle by Invincible Emperors would not alert the Dominator-level Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon Trees. It likely wouldn’t even quickly alert the internal, considerably stronger Thousand-Pupil Demon Trees, allowing Chu Mu to progress gradually.

Group battles were naturally the Demon Tree Warrior’s specialty. Thousands of Demon Trees could barely threaten it. As Chu Mu issued the command, the Demon Tree Warrior, eager to break through its species’ limits and step into Dominator level, roared and charged into the Demon Trees with blood-red eyes.

The Demon Tree Warrior was exceptionally formidable in group battles, mainly due to its two abilities: Life Absorption allowed it to remain unbeaten in group attacks as long as it could timely absorb life, and the infestation of toxins.

The toxins of the Demon Tree Warrior could affect an entire area, and any creature within this zone would continue to be poisoned, their life slowly draining until they eventually died of poisoning.

Especially those creatures that were injured, once tainted by the toxins, would unknowingly lose their lives completely and gradually decay amidst the toxins.

These two abilities allowed the Demon Tree Warrior to be unstoppable on the periphery of the empire, quickly turning tens of thousands of Ten-Eyed and Hundred-Pupil Demon Trees into decaying corpses on this fertile land.

Since there was no longer a challenge at the periphery, Chu Mu led the Demon Tree Warrior deeper into the empire.

The strength of the Demon Trees in the inner circle was significantly stronger, with most being Commanders and Monarchs. If a regiment of over two thousand were to attack the Demon Tree Warriors simultaneously, the Demon Tree Warriors would likely be unable to withstand them.

Chu Mu led the Demon Tree Warrior, traversing through the vast territory of Demon Trees, determined not to let the enemy’s numbers accumulate to over two thousand. Through strategies of position change, breakthroughs, and detours, the Demon Tree Warrior eliminated countless enemies, absorbing wood type life force that was dozens of times its own life force.

However, in the midst of this large-scale slaughter in the empire, Chu Mu finally drew the attention of the thousand-pupil Demon Trees of some Peak Emperors. Chu Mu had no choice but to take the exhausted Demon Tree Warrior and hide in a sparser forest to temporarily evade capture.

“50 Emperors, including 3 Peak Emperors, and ten thousand Commander-level regiments — they are not easy to deal with,” Chu Mu rubbed his temples.

Although he could wipe them out single-handedly, such an action would bring no benefits to the Demon Tree Warrior. Now, Chu Mu had to rely solely on the strength of the Demon Tree Warrior to resolve the situation.

With the 3 Peak Emperors leading the charge, this must be a Level 10 Wood Tribe that has locked its sights on Chu Mu, enveloping Chu Mu and the Demon Tree Warrior completely.

If the battle continued, the Demon Tree Warrior was a bit lacking in stamina, and could at most eliminate two to three thousand of the Leader-level regiment before running out of energy, not to mention the 50 Emperors and 3 Peak Emperors were extremely tough to handle.

“Oh~~~~~” The Demon Tree Warrior, like a loyal warrior, stood by Chu Mu’s side, emitting a loyal and honest roar, signaling it wasn’t afraid of the Level 10 Tribe.

“Oh!!!!!!! Oh!!!!!!!!”

“Oh!!! Oh!!!!!!!!!! Oh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Suddenly, the shadowy depths of the forest burst with countless roaring sounds.

These roars clearly came from those arrogant thousand-pupil Demon Trees. Chu Mu had encountered them the day before, and this group of thousand-pupil Demon Trees was very clever, disguising themselves as ordinary plants while waiting for Chu Mu to delve further in, before suddenly rising from the ground to form a massive plant prison, trapping him unexpectedly.

Not everything was perceivable by Chu Mu as the Nine Thoughts Soul Emperor, and after being entrapped, Chu Mu decisively led the Demon Tree Warrior to break out, exerting tremendous effort before managing to shake off the cunning thousand-pupil Demon Trees and finding a place to hide.

This was still the territory of the Thousand-Pupil Demon Tree. After hiding, the Level 10 Tribe completely secured the surroundings, setting guards every five steps and posts every ten. If Chu Mu did not summon other Soul Pets, it would indeed be difficult for him to get out of this predicament.

“Let’s try strengthening,” Chu Mu said to the Demon Tree Warrior. “If we get lucky and it works, you can trample them to death.”

“Oh~~” The Demon Tree Warrior hesitated, knowing it wasn’t yet strong enough for battle.

The Demon Tree Warrior could estimate if it was ready to move up to Dominator Level by the life force it absorbed. It had absorbed about fifty times its own life’s wood type energy, but in reality, the Demon Tree Warrior felt it needed a hundred times more life energy to be sure of advancing.

This concept of a hundred times meant defeating a hundred creatures that were also at the Peak Emperor level.

Of course, the life force of 5000 Monarchs combined roughly equaled that of one Peak Emperor. With the Demon Tree Warrior’s powerful ability in group battles, this rate of life force absorption could increase much faster.

Old Man Han had roughly estimated for Chu Mu that, under normal conditions, to elevate an Invincible Emperor to Dominator Level, it needed to defeat at least a hundred Peak Emperors and also required the help of a Xuan object.

If there was only the Xuan object and the Soul Pet hadn’t undergone this hundred battles of intense training, then the probability of successful strengthening by the Xuan object would be much lower.

To reach a one hundred percent success rate, usually both full battle training and full usage of the Xuan object are required. Old Man Han roughly calculated that the success rate would equal the percentage multiplication of these two data points.

The Wood Mysterious Object in Chu Mu’s possession had been amplified by Ye Qingzi, giving the Soul Pet an approximate ninety percent chance of successful advancement, nearly perfect quality.

The training degree of the Demon Tree Warrior had only reached about fifty percent; thus, its chances of successfully advancing to Dominator Level was below fifty percent. Then Old Man Han especially reminded Chu Mu that the Species Ranking also affected the level of advancement. No matter if a War General-level creature reached ten times the intense training or had a ten times Xuan object, the success rate of strengthening was zero.

This is precisely the limiting factor of the species, nearly unbreakable.

However, Old Man Han did not know that Chu Mu’s Soul Pets had already been nurtured by Ning Man’er, eliminating this species limitation, allowing the Demon Tree Warrior to still advance to Dominator Level.

Once the Demon Tree Warrior moved into Dominator Level, Mu Qingyi, Chao Lengchuan, Old Man Han, Teng Lang, Shen Mo and others would likely be shocked!
