Chapter 1444 - Chapter 1444 Chapter 1305
Chapter 1444: Chapter 1305 Chapter 1444: Chapter 1305 The Silent Forest was located close to the World’s Main Vein on the Wupan Continent, which is to say, in the northeast direction. The journey from Luan City to the Silent Forest was still a very long distance.
Having set the route, the inevitable focus of the journey ahead was on training. Without great strength, nothing could be achieved.
A month after leaving Luan City, Chu Mu carefully chose a quiet place to begin strengthening Zhan Ye.
Zhan Ye’s Xuan Object was very difficult to find, so naturally, Chu Mu would only dare to strengthen it after Zhan Ye’s training rate was complete.
Taking out the Xuan Object, Chu Mu settled on a rock by the stream and slowly closed his eyes.
The chirping of birds by his ears gradually vanished as Chu Mu blocked out all sounds and began to focus on strengthening.
Seeing Chu Mu seriously cultivating, the four others didn’t disturb him, opting instead to rest on the other side of the stream.
It was somewhat hot, and the two women fortunately took off their shoes, stepping barefoot in the cool stream. It was unclear who started the mischief, but soon Pang Yue and Xiaoxiao began to splash each other, their playful giggles echoing attractively…
Amidst the frolicking, suddenly, a powerful roar thundered from Chu Mu’s position upstream on the rock, startling birds from the surrounding forest into flight.
“He must have succeeded in strengthening,” Pang Yue turned to look at Chu Mu.
“What Soul Pet is he strengthening?” Xiaoxiao curiously gazed at Chu Mu.
“A War Beast Mo Ye,” said Pang Yue.
“War Beast Mo Ye? Isn’t that a Commander-level Soul Pet?” asked Xiaoxiao.
For those who had reached the Soul Controller grade, a Commander-level Soul Pet was indeed considered low-ranked. Moreover, Soul Pets with a Species Ranking of Commander had no hope of ascending to the Immortal level, and some even suggested that Commander-level Soul Pets had a higher failure rate during Dominator-level strengthening than other Soul Pets.
“But his Mo Ye is very formidable,” Pang Yue said with shining eyes.
What Pang Yue couldn’t forget was the scene back on the Wanxiang Plain, when the War Beast Mo Ye, with strength near Dominator level, defeated two Fighting Bull Demon Beasts and the King of Ice Demise, both of higher ranks. The battle had left her with an unprecedented shock; she had never imagined that a Soul Pet could burst forth with such tremendous late-stage power.
“Really? Even if he succeeds in strengthening, that’s just High Master Level; it may not be better than my Feifei,” Xiaoxiao said.
“You’ll understand in time,” Pang Yue hinted, making Xiaoxiao curious.
She couldn’t comprehend; wasn’t it just a recent advance to High Master Level? Her Four-winged Pegasus was surely a notch above the average High-level Master Soul Pet.
“Pang Yue, are you and he a couple? Why did I feel like you two were just ordinary friends when I first met you, even though you clearly slept together that night?” Xiaoxiao inquired bluntly.
“Don’t talk nonsense. He was just meditating there, and he’s a practice fanatic who doesn’t sleep much at night. I’m just friends with him, as well as Ye Wansheng and Chao Lengchuan,” Pang Yue explained hurriedly.
“Oh, so he’s single?” Xiaoxiao asked with a gossip’s interest.
Pang Yue did not answer directly but suddenly seemed to remember something and said, “By the way, has anyone ever told you that you resemble his fiancee, Ye Qingzi?”
“Me? I look like his fiancee?” Xiaoxiao blinked and thought carefully; it seemed that when they first met at the Trading Place, he had inexplicably stared at her for quite a while, because she resembled someone.
“Yeah, at first glance, you really do,” stated Pang Yue.
“Oh, that’s quite a coincidence…” With that, Xiaoxiao understood why he would save her and even kindly treated her wounds. After a moment of silence, she stealthily glanced at Chu Mu and said softly, “Then seeing me must make him very sad.”
“Sad?” Pang Yue didn’t understand what Xiaoxiao meant.
…
After successfully strengthening Zhan Ye, Chu Mu felt considerably more elated.
The explosive power of Zhan Ye was impossible to fully gauge, but it was clear that bullying one or two ordinary Peak Master Level Soul Pets shouldn’t be a problem.
Zhan Ye was more than capable of contending with Peak Master Level creatures, and the Little Hiding Dragon was also in the slumbering stage of advancement. Upon awakening, it should have digested all the spirits to attain Peak Master Level strength!
All the main pets had gained Peak Master Level strength, and the rest of the Soul Pets had stepped into High Master Level. This amount of power should make them rare rivals even among Soul Controllers!
Chu Mu was now quite eager for a grand battle!
“Chu Mu, the next city is a Frontier City belonging to the Monster Beast Palace. After crossing this forest, should we go to the city? Xiaoxiao says we might gather some news at the Monster Beast Palace,” Pang Yue said, holding a map.
“Let me see the map,” said Chu Mu, taking the map scroll from Pang Yue.
The scroll was lengthy enough to drag on the ground. That short sketch likely represented tens of thousands of kilometers, a distance an ordinary person could not fathom walking in an entire lifetime.
Chu Mu glanced at the frontier city Pang Yue pointed to, wanting to see if entering this city would require a detour.
“Yeah, it’s on the way, so let’s stay there for a few days,” Chu Mu said.
Just as Chu Mu was about to put away the map, he suddenly noticed a very strange marking appearing at the eastern end of this frontier city.
Chu Mu pointed to the marking and asked, “What is this?”
Chu Mu often wandered the wilds, and he had to understand every symbol on the map. It was odd that there was such a strange marking at the frontier of this city, which piqued Chu Mu’s curiosity.
“That’s the Heavenly Boundary Monument, an ancient stone tablet said to be suppressing or sealing something. In any case, there have always been many rumors about the Heavenly Boundary Monument,” Xiaoxiao explained.
“Heavenly Boundary Monument!” Chu Mu’s interest was piqued, and he hurriedly asked Xiaoxiao, “What does this Heavenly Boundary Monument roughly look like? Describe it to me.”
“It’s grey-white, standing alone on a desolate and open land, very majestic. Sometimes when the clouds are low, it seems to stretch up into the sky. The Heavenly Boundary Monument also has many ancient engravings that we can’t understand. I’ve heard some of the older folks say that standing in a certain position at the Heavenly Boundary Monument can cause hallucinations and auditory illusions. Supposedly only certain Soul Pet Masters can see and hear them,” Xiaoxiao said.
The Heavenly Boundary Monument Xiaoxiao spoke of was very similar to the two in the New Moon Land!
“We also have two Heavenly Boundary Monuments in our place. What exactly are these Heavenly Boundary Monuments for?” Pang Yue asked.
“Who knows? The Old Man told me that there are several Heavenly Boundary Monuments in the World, and each one hides a secret. Besides the one near this frontier city, there is another one in the southern part of our Wupan Continent. They say that one is even more mysterious. On the night of a lunar eclipse, the people there hear ancient battle cries like those of a ghostly battlefield; it’s known as the ghostly monument. There’s another Heavenly Boundary Monument… Hmm? I seem to have forgotten where, but we definitely have three on the Wupan Continent,” Xiaoxiao explained.
The existence of the Heavenly Boundary Monuments had never been definitively explained, but possessing the Monument Tears, Chu Mu had inadvertently discovered a secret beneath the New Moon Heavenly Stele – the slumber of the Ancient Jiao People.
That was a star of disaster; were it to be made public, who knew what panic it would cause among the people.
Chu Mu had initially thought the Heavenly Boundary Monument only existed in New Moon Land, but to his surprise, there were indeed three more on the Wupan Continent.
This made Chu Mu wonder what the true purpose of these monoliths scattered around the Continent could be – were they really sealing something away, or were there secrets hidden within the Heavenly Boundary Monuments…
“Let’s go to Lin City,” Chu Mu determined his direction.
Chu Mu decided to have a look at this Heavenly Boundary Monument. Although the Little Princess was not with him to interpret the writings, Chu Mu believed that if there was a special connection between each Heavenly Boundary Monument, he would definitely sense something upon stepping into that place.
…
Lin City was a frontier city, about the same scale as Guan City, but there was no particularly outstanding feature about this city.
Upon entering Lin City, Xiaoxiao led Chu Mu and the others directly to the Monster Beast Palace.
Monster Beast Palace, Elemental Sect, Tomb of the Undead, and Plant Gate – these were the four major powers with the widest influence and strongest strength on both the Wupan Continent and Struggle Land. Their position was second only to the Divine Sect.
In Lin City, the Monster Beast Palace had a branch, and as Xiaoxiao was a relatively high-ranking and valued member, she naturally received ceremonious treatment at this branch of the Monster Beast Palace.
The Lin City branch of the Monster Beast Palace occupied a mountain within the city. Its imposing stature and intricate layers of stairs were enough to intimidate onlookers.
At the Mountain Gate, several disciples of the Monster Beast Palace were already waiting respectfully to lead the five people into the branch.
“Miss Xiao Xiao, the branch leader is welcoming a distinguished guest. You can rest in Purple Peak. The branch leader will visit you personally tomorrow,” the disciple, who seemed to be of high status, said respectfully.
“Let him be busy. I don’t really want to meet him anyway. I’ll just stay here for a few days and then leave,” Xiaoxiao said, waving her hand impatiently.
“This… this…” The disciple looked embarrassed and helplessly retreated.
Purple Peak housed a Mountain Villa, which seemed originally intended to welcome distinguished guests. It was very clean, and the female servants were ready to serve at all times.
“The environment is elegant, the scenery is beautiful, and you have a panoramic view of the entire city. This villa is very nice. Say, Xiaoxiao, you seem to have a high status in the Monster Beast Palace, even the branch leader is coming to see you personally,” Ye Wansheng commented.
“Just a branch leader; he’s nothing special, just a Quasi-immortal Level Soul Pet. My Uncle Sun could easily deal with him,” Xiaoxiao said with some pride.
“Isn’t your Uncle Sun a Xuan Master?” Chu Mu asked, puzzled.
“He is a Xuan Master, but he is also a Soul Pet Master. When it comes to his expertise as a Soul Pet Master, it’s much higher than his mastery of Xuan Technique,” Xiaoxiao explained.
Ye Wansheng glanced at Chu Mu and teased, “Chu Mu, you’ve got yourself a young Miss of the Monster Beast Palace, huh.”
“Don’t say it like that; there are plenty in the Monster Beast Palace with higher status than me,” Xiaoxiao replied.
