Chapter 1331 - Chapter 1331 Chapter 1195 Battle in the Southern Forbidden

Chapter 1331: Chapter 1195: Battle in the Southern Forbidden Region Chapter 1331: Chapter 1195: Battle in the Southern Forbidden Region Early morning, Liu Binglan had the servants summon Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi for breakfast.

However, only Ye Qingzi came, and knowing that Chu Mu had no habit of oversleeping, Liu Binglan looked at her with confusion.

“He’s taken White One and the others to the Southern Forbidden Region,” said Ye Qingzi.

“This child, can’t he rest for even a single day?” Liu Binglan said with resignation.

Chu Mu had just returned yesterday and briefly discussed the matters of the Cloud Realm before going to rest. Liu Binglan had sent people to settle Xu Daofeng and the Tang officer from the Divine Sect, and then would arrange for someone to guide them to the locations they wished to inspect.

…

There were actually many choices for places to undergo trials, such as the Seven Holy Regions, the Nightmare Demon Forbidden Region, the Soul Pet Palace Holy Domain, the Northern Wasteland Hibernation Zone…

Considering that the balance of some places should not be disturbed, Chu Mu ultimately chose the deep waters of the Southern Forbidden Region.

The Nightmare Demon Ruler told Chu Mu that the Southern Forbidden Region had recently been anything but peaceful, as there had been empires frequently trying to enter the territories delineated on human maps.

In fact, the Nightmare Demon Empire of the South also wanted to invade human lands, but later abandoned the idea.

These empires were at the peak of their breeding cycles, facing either internal strife or the need to expand their territories. Now, the Southern Nightmare Demon Empire was already expanding its lands. Chu Mu decided to lend them a hand, partly to help form a complete Southern Forbidden Region dominion for the Nightmare Demon Empire and partly to help New Moon Land get through this breeding disaster. Of course, the most important part was to allow the Little Hiding Dragon to drastically increase its strength.

The so-called breeding disaster referred to the situation where Soul Pets were breeding in large numbers, exceeding one-third of the original land’s capacity to accommodate life.

In nature, many plants scatter and propagate their pollen and seeds when the moon is half or full. These scents also catalyze the breeding of many creatures at night. After several years of such unchecked breeding, the land will be overwhelmed with too many creatures.

The land’s resources are inherently limited, so when too many life forms emerge, there are only two outcomes, as mentioned earlier.

The Nightmare Demon Ruler told Chu Mu that the Southern Forbidden Region was vast beyond measure, and the empires there could not be compared to the Cloud Realm. Even if Little Mo Xie unleashed a racial catastrophe, Chu Mu estimated that the Soul Pets would still be overpopulated.

Chu Mu could also imagine how, if there were hundreds of billions of humans in New Moon Land, how many more would there be in an even more massive Forbidden Region?

…

Chu Mu first went to the Large Southern Forbidden Area, and its master, upon seeing Chu Mu in his silver glamour, was very enthusiastic and started to discuss human affairs with Chu Mu.

The master of the Large Southern Forbidden Area was extremely powerful, to the extent that Chu Mu could feel an overwhelming pressure as vast as the sky bearing down on him.

Knowing that the master of the Southern Forbidden Region was willing to help enhance the strength of his White Demon, Chu Mu became even more certain that this very aggressive master was no less powerful than Lu Yuqin, and perhaps even stronger.

Chu Mu talked with the master of the Southern Forbidden Region about the Cloud Realm, and the master told Chu Mu that if those humans from the Cloud Realm wanted to wage war, then he should just agree to it.

Currently in the Southern Forbidden Region, there’s an abundance of everything except for excess “people.” They desperately crave a war, especially one against humanity. The master expressed a keen interest in assisting Chu Mu with this battle.

Chu Mu smiled bitterly. After just a few words, he was certain not only of the abnormal strength of this individual but also that this guy was an ultra-aggressive maniac.

Chu Mu explained if he were defeated, then the master of the Southern Forbidden Region could intervene.

However, Chu Mu then thought that by then, even if he offered New Moon Land to the Cloud Realm on a silver platter, they wouldn’t dare to accept it with such a crazy empire as their neighbor.

With the Southern Forbidden Region being so friendly, Chu Mu of course had to help them solve some problems as well.

First regarding the issue of territorial expansion, the master of the Southern Forbidden Region told Chu Mu that there was a sixth-level Empire on the east side of their land.

This sixth-level Empire had long been on the conqueror’s list of the master of the Southern Forbidden Region, who planned to make a move during this breeding cycle. However, it could not appoint a suitable commander.

Chu Mu’s arrival was serendipitous. After an initial discussion, he was appointed as the Supreme Commander for this invasion of the sixth-level Empire, tasked with a sweeping campaign against the Jackal Frenzy Demon Empire.

Meanwhile, over the few months that Chu Mu would be expanding territory for the master of the Southern Forbidden Region, the master decided to take the White Devil in for special training.

“Snarl~~~~~~~~” The White Devil seemed somewhat reluctant.

The creature was not fond of white nightmare demons stronger than itself. Unfortunately, there were indeed many more powerful white nightmare demons in the Southern Forbidden Region, which made the White Devil feel extremely imbalanced, to the point where it wanted to consume a few to enhance its own strength.

“No worries, I’ll come back to pick you up in a few months. Train well, alright?” Chu Mu consoled the White Devil.

The White Devil could only nod in resignation, and it also took the opportunity to warn the master of the Southern Forbidden Region that it was a White Nightmare Demon that devoured others of its kind, warning it not to carelessly lose a powerful subordinate to the White Devil’s appetite.

The master of the Southern Forbidden Region was magnanimous, instead reminding the White Devil that there were also many white nightmare demon nobles that devoured others, advising the White Devil to be careful too.

A sixth level Empire, coupled with Moon Tide, must already have an unimaginable number of Soul Pets. Little Hiding Dragon should be able to devour Dead Souls to its heart’s content now.

…

…

Xu Daofeng and the Tang officer, as members of the Divine Sect, had also been busy these past few months.

They traveled from the Wanxiang Realm to the World Realm on a Cloud Immortal Jiao-tail Luan, and to their surprise, a significant portion of the Earth Realm’s population was completely unaware of the existence of the Cloud Realm, let alone the even larger Earth Realm.

After reviewing the history of New Moon Land, the Tang officer, acting as a supervisor, also understood why the people of this land chose to seek independence.

During the inspection phase, whether it was the history or the will of the people of New Moon Land, all were already fully in line with the conditions for independence. Almost everyone made it clear that they didn’t need any higher rulers at all.

Moreover, Xu Daofeng and the Tang officer discovered that the ruler’s position over this territory was not very prominent; their core controllers were the Palace Forces.

To the public, Palace Forces weren’t considered rulers; they didn’t require ordinary people to pay taxes and, to a certain extent, were open to most Soul Pet Masters.

Among them, the Soul Pet Palace had an even lower threshold; practically any Soul Pet Master could enter the Soul Pet Palace.

“Tang officer, I truly haven’t seen this kind of system elsewhere,” Xu Daofeng commented.

When he was in Wanxiang City, Xu Daofeng was puzzled as to why Chu Mu’s mother, Liu Binglan, didn’t call herself the Lord of the Realm and wasn’t even a city master; yet, she was referred to by everyone as the Venerate, receiving even more respect than the ruling class of city masters and Lords of the Realm.

It turned out that the Palace Forces’ status in New Moon Land had similarities with the Divine Sect, being detached from the ruling class.

But there was one distinct difference between them and the Divine Sect: the Palace Forces had a very broad distribution. Every Boundary City had their branch palaces, and they were more decentralized, integrating into all Soul Pet Masters, open to most of them.

The Divine Sect had extremely high admission barriers and was completely closed off, not allowing non-members to step inside even one step; trespassing meant death, and its members had to strictly adhere to the regime, with any negligence leading to immediate expulsion.

“It feels like they are more like a public welfare power. I wonder where they get so many resources and funds to support such a scale spread across all major and minor Boundary Cities,” the Tang officer stated.

“Heh, if our place also had such a Palace Force, it really could give our region’s Soul Pet Masters more freedom to develop,” Xu Daofeng remarked.

“These three main palaces indeed represent an emerging, unique system; if it could be popularized, it would be the best news for many Soul Pet Masters who have nowhere to turn in empires and World Dynasties… Unfortunately, this system only appears in a third-level Earth Realm, and with their strength, once they leave New Moon Land, it would be somewhat difficult to establish themselves,” commented the Tang officer.

To the Palace Forces of New Moon Land, both Divine Sect members expressed great admiration; they truly had not seen such an open and expansive power structure before.

“If we submit these findings to Chief Officer Lu, she’ll be astonished too. Xu Daofeng, I think our inspection is almost over; we can go back and report now,” the Tang officer suggested.

“Yeah, I hope Chu Mu can come out on top. If he fails, I’m afraid this special system of Palace Forces might no longer exist. That would be a real pity,” Xu Daofeng mused.

Shaking his head helplessly, the Tang officer said, “To come out on top is really difficult. Boundary Commanders, Lords of the Realm, Protector Generals–each of them is such a figure that a mere stomp of their foot could shake the Cloud Realm. For him to defeat even one would be remarkable, let alone… sigh…”

…

After returning to Wanxiang City, the Tang officer initially had some opinions about this remote place, but after seeing the special nature of the Palace Forces, he became even more respectful of their Elders, Elder members, and Venerable Position members.

“Her Highness the Venerate, I think your Palace Forces’ system is very special and would suit expansion to other Earth Realms and territories. Your open and free approach should be welcomed by many Soul Pet Masters. In our land, many Soul Pet Masters love freedom, travel, and wandering; this group of Soul Pet Masters is destined to have difficulty aligning with powers. However, your Palace Forces provide an excellent direction for them,” Xu Daofeng said earnestly.

“Let’s talk about all these things after we become independent,” Liu Binglan responded.

“Oh, yes, that’s true,” Xu Daofeng agreed.

Xu Daofeng didn’t know why, but he always subconsciously believed that Chu Mu could achieve independence for this territory. Yet, whenever he considered those experts in the Cloud Realm, Xu Daofeng felt that it seemed rather unlikely.

After Xu Daofeng left, Liu Binglan carefully considered his words.

The downgrade of East Madness Forest meant that even more people would enter New Moon Land in the future, so instead of being blindly secluded, why not expand the Three Great Palaces? Even the Divine Sect members had recognized the system of the Three Great Palaces; surely, outside, there would be even more individuals who purely pursue the way of the Soul Pet who would acknowledge the Three Great Palaces.

Money and resources were not a major concern for the Three Great Palaces.

After reaching the Dominator Level, Liu Binglan had entered the Holy Land multiple times and gradually realized that the Holy Land was far larger than the ancient records described, with its resources being incalculable. It was only that in the past, people didn’t have enough strength to explore wider areas.

With funds and resources, and a system that unified the hearts of the people, why couldn’t the Palace be expanded?

Thinking a lot, Liu Binglan eventually shook her head helplessly. All these considerations would have to wait until the territory became independent…
