Chapter 486: Chapter 359: Complete Restraint, The Power of the Ghost King
“Fourteen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, with no Ninth Stage… Ghost Dome King!” As the spell was chanted, Chu Mu first summoned the Ghost Dome King to battle.
The Ghost Dome King is an Elemental Soul Pet, and within the raging sands, it ruled its territory, its control of the sand far surpa.s.sing that of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.
Moreover, the most threatening attacks from the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion, such as the edges, claws, and tail sting, had little effect on the Ghost Dome King, whose defense power had reached the Eighth Rank Late Stage. At this point, the Ghost Dome King could fully unleash its monarch nature!
Chu Mu also knew that this reward hunt would probably last a long time, so, in order to save the combat power of his other Soul Pets, he didn’t summon too many of them. These fourteen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions would be dealt with by the Ghost Dome King and Mo Ye. The Demon Tree Warriors who excelled in group battles would be summoned if more Desert Mad Edge Scorpions appeared.
Fourteen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions posed no real threat to Chu Mu’s two Soul Pets, and the battle was quickly over.
The Ghost Dome King’s attack power was not strong. During the battle with these fourteen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, Mo Ye had killed twelve of them, while the Ghost Dome King had only killed two.
“Young Master, the poison of Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpions is roughly equivalent to 10 portions. We should continue to go deeper,” said Fox Elder.
Chu Mu nodded, cleaned the battlefield with his Soul Sense, and then collected the poison from the fourteen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions into the compressed poison bottle.
Heat waves rolled in, and the deeper they went, the higher the temperature. The surrounding air seemed to be burning like flames, and even looking far away, you could feel the distortion of light scattering over the sand dunes and sandy ground.
The Ghost Dome King got a thorough workout in this desert illusion. The ranks of the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were one level above that of the Ghost Dome King. Normally, a Seventh Stage Monarch could only compete with an Eighth Rank Commander at most.
However, in this desert, the Ghost Dome King relies on its powerful defense power, sand control ability, and poison resistance to completely suppress the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, often facing a group with similar strength to its own alone.
If it keeps fighting like this, the Ghost Dome King’s stage will definitely grow rapidly!
“A Ninth Stage Mad Edge Scorpion, it’s about time one appeared. Ghost Dome King, Demon Tree Warrior, Mo Ye.”
Chu Mu’s mouth curved into a smile. A Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpion was equivalent to 10 portions of poison, and facing a Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpion was a real challenge for his Soul Pets. So, Chu Mu was very eager to encounter Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.
There were usually quite a few Seventh and Eighth Stage Scorpions surrounding the Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. It was enough to let the Demon Tree Warriors handle these Scorpions!
“King Ghost Transformation!”
“Roar!
Ghost flames burned around the Ghost Dome King, its majestic body slowly enlarging, reaching a height of four meters. The King’s curved sword it tightly held was three meters long!!
This time, Chu Mu didn’t let the Ghost Dome King focus on defense transformation but doubled its power!
The Ghost Dome King needed real challenges and killings. Constantly defending would also provide training, but it would not be as effective as engaging in close combat with the Ghost Dome King itself.
Seventh-Stage Second-Rank versus Ninth-Stage Second-Rank, this was a genuine cross-rank battle. In the face of a Ninth-Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpion, the Ghost Dome King let out a monarch-like roar, taking its extremely heavy steps!
Almost without the need for chanting spells, when the Ghost Dome King’s curved sword was raised high, the ground’s yellow sand seemed to be swirled around by a hurricane, swirling around and condensing on the Ghost Dome King’s curved sword, turning it into a ten-meter-long sand sword!!
A four-meter-tall giant, holding a more than ten-meter-long sand sword in both hands, what an astonishing power!
The Ghost Dome King quickly locked onto the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion and swung the sword with barbaric strength!!
“Boom!
The sand and gravel wrapped around the King’s curved sword exploded as the sword fell. The energy impact of the blades caused the sand and gravel to tumble over, creating a sand wave dozens of meters high. Several Seventh Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were shattered by the explosion of sand and gravel, their flesh, carapace, and limbs completely separated…
The Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpion’s reaction speed was quite fast. Its six-meter-long body moved to the edge of the attack. Relying on the back of its body to push through the obstruction of sand and gravel, it quickly rushed towards the Ghost Dome King!
“Mo Ye.” Chu Mu would not let the Ghost Dome King fight the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion alone, letting Mo Ye play the role of a.s.sisting the Ghost Dome King in battle.
As a rock type Ghost Dome King in this desert, it could be said that it perfectly counteracted this group of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. If it was a Soul Pet of a different type, Chu Mu would not let a Seventh-Stage Second-Rank Ghost Dome King face a Ninth Rank Commander.
As the battle continued, the Ghost Dome King gradually gained the upper hand in its fight against the Ninth Stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpions with its strong defense, attack power, and rock control ability!
“Meteor Flicker Sword!” Chu Mu commanded.
As a monarch-level Soul Pet, the Ghost Dome King has almost all of its controlled skills above Level 6, making its attack power even stronger.
The King’s curved sword shrouded in brown light fell, and large meteorites with a diameter of five meters quickly appeared around its blade. When the Ghost Dome King’s sword fell, these huge meteorites slammed down, making the power of this sword even more majestic!
“Crash!
The Ninth Rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpion was right in the center of the Ghost Dome King’s descending sword. Not only did the King’s curved sword tear open its already injured armor, but the five-meter-large meteor rock also ruthlessly smashed onto its body. The heavily wounded Desert Mad Edge Scorpion was blasted into the sand, and its flesh and blood splattered in the sand waves!
“Roar!!! Roar!
The Ghost Dome King’s sword was incredibly satisfying, cleaving the Ninth Rank Mad Edge Scorpion in half!
At Seventh Rank Second Stage, it had killed a Ninth Rank Desert Mad Edge Scorpion. Perhaps even the Ghost Dome King didn’t expect to be able to overcome such a rank difference in battle, and a sense of kingly pride emerged naturally!
Suddenly, the King’s curved sword was raised high, and the Ghost Flame on the Ghost Dome King’s body became even more vigorous, as if its entire body was burning!
“Roar
Nothing could stimulate the potential of a fighting spirit pet more than a hearty battle! After killing the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion with Mo Ye’s a.s.sistance, the Ghost Dome King directly entered the growth stage.
“It’s now at Seventh Rank Third Stage! It seems like coming here is a wise move, allowing the Ghost Dome King to greatly increase its strength in a short period.” Chu Mu smiled.
“Roar! Roar!
Just after the Ghost Dome King finished growing, the Ghost Flame on its body hadn’t completely faded yet, but it was already eager to continue fighting. Taking heavy steps, it walked towards the battlefield of the Demon Tree warriors. The King’s Ghost Sword in its hand swept wildly at the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions!
Ghost Dome King controlled the intermediate Dark Crystal Rock. Although the rock type’s attacks weren’t very strong, when combined with the Ghost Dome King’s strength, it could exert the greatest destructive power.
“Rumble rumble rumble rumble
Ghost Dome King violently tore apart the entire sand area, creating pits and hollows. Each slash could cause significant damage.
Soon, this batch of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions was all resolved.
“There are only 100 portions collected now. It’s already the tenth day since we got here. With this progress, it will take at least three months to complete the collection of 1000 portions of poison…” Chu Mu muttered while shaking the little poison vial.
This kind of collection reward can indeed safely gather enough materials by always wandering around the outer periphery. But it would take a long time to do so.
Three months – Chu Mu could do many things in that time, but he couldn’t afford to waste all that time collecting these poison materials.
Without risk, there would be no reward, and ultimately, Chu Mu decisively abandoned the outer periphery of the Front Sand Domain, heading deeper into it. He even ignored any Desert Mad Edge Scorpions he encountered along the way.
Yellow sand swirled in the air, and the gale gradually turned chilly. The depths of the Front Sand Domain were no longer as calm as before. When looking into the distance, Chu Mu could always see one or two yellow sand hurricanes twisting their bodies, moving in certain directions, leaving chaos and turmoil in their path.
In the vast desert, Chu Mu rode Battle Ye, frantically sprinting through the sand. In this boundless desert, they seemed quite insignificant, as if no matter how fast they ran, they remained in the same spot.
“Battle Ye, wait,” Chu Mu called.
Battle Ye stopped running, slightly raised its head, and waited for Chu Mu’s next instruction.
“Run to the right; it seems like there are people there,” Chu Mu said to Battle Ye.
Battle Ye nodded its head and started running in the direction Chu Mu pointed out.
Sure enough, when Battle Ye climbed up a large sand dune ridge, they could see several soul pet masters controlling their soul pets and fighting a large group of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions in a desert basin.
There were many Desert Mad Edge Scorpions, and when Chu Mu stood on high ground overlooking the basin, he could see the gray figures writhing everywhere in the area.
Moreover, it seemed like even more Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were converging on those soul pet masters from other locations.
“The teams that can break into this place probably aren’t weak.” Chu Mu said. From this distance, he couldn’t fully a.n.a.lyze the strength of those soul pet masters. But since they were able to survive in this environment, each soul pet master should be on par with himself.
“Young Master, you can try joining them. They should have come here to collect other materials from the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions. If you join them, the poison from the killed scorpions will be yours, and you can quickly complete the collection of 1000 portions of poison,” Fox Elder suggested.
Chu Mu nodded, agreeing that joining another team could indeed save a lot of time.
But before joining them, Chu Mu needed to figure out their ident.i.ty to avoid falling into a trap.
“I’ll disguise the Young Master first just in case,” Fox Elder said.
After Fox Elder changed Chu Mu’s appearance, Chu Mu rode Battle Ye towards the soul pet trainers who were facing countless Desert Mad Edge Scorpions.
