The Charm of Soul Pets

Chapter 1426

Sang Ying put all of them into a spatial ring and handed it to Chu Mu.


“There’s a phoenix feather in there. Don’t you have a dark type phoenix? That phoenix feather should be helpful for you.” Sang Ying said.


Chu Mu found the phoenix feather in the xuan cluttered ring. It was a dark colored phoenix feather.


At first, Chu Mu was very confused. What use was a phoenix feather? However, when he held it in his hand, he immediately felt an immense power surge from it!


“The most precious thing to a phoenix is its heart feather. After all phoenix species die, they become a heart feather that can be used to pa.s.s their powers onto another phoenix. These pirates didn’t seem to know what it was, throwing such a precious feather in a random place.” Old Li jumped out of Chu Mu’s spatial ring and said.


“Strange, there seems to be some mental power left on it.” Chu Mu looked into this special phoenix feather using his remembrance.


“That’s normal. Phoenixes actually take death extremely seriously. The phoenixes that die outside of Phoenix grounds will become a feather and inject the feather with its desire to return to their sacred grounds. Anyone who gets the feather may receive the respect of that phoenix’s clansmen if they return the feather.” Old Li said.


“This phoenix feather rank isn’t that high. It’s not feasible to use it to strengthen Dead Dream.” Chu Mu said.


“Young master should keep the feathers then. It’s possible to find the phoenix sacred group through this feather. There definitely are many ways to increase Dead Dream’s power once you enter the sacred grounds.” old Li said.


Chu Mu looked around the spatial ring and picked out xuan items that Ye Wansheng, Chao Lengchuan, and Pang Yue could use.


“The rest is for you to build up the navy. You can go get the bounty as well and give it to Elder pPang to see how he deals with it.” Chu Mu gave the spatial ring back to Sang Ying.


Sang Ying was dazed. The xuan items Chu Mu just took were at most 10,000 xuan, and he wasn’t even claiming the bounties, instead giving it to Elder Pang for the navy. Didn’t that mean he was giving 100,000 xuan to the navy?


100,000 xuan, that was enough to create two top tier dominator rank soul pets. Sang Ying was expecting Chu Mu to leave a third of the xuan at most, yet it seemed that Chu Mu was giving almost all of it to them?


“Chu Mu, you….. You’re giving it all to us. How about your own needs?” Sang Ying said.


The pirates mostly had scattered xuan items. If Chu Mu actually took it all, he would have to go to an exchange to handle it. He would have to wait an extremely long time if he wanted to get a reasonable price on it all.


Instead of that, he might as well give it to New Moon Land as resources. With this many members, the resources were likely useful to at least someone in the group.


“My soul pets just need fighting training. Xuan items aren’t as big of an issue. Even if I need it, I can just go and find some.” Chu Mu said.


With Old Li with them, Chu Mu didn’t actually have an extremely hard time finding advanced xuan items. If this ring had any xuan item above seventh rank, Chu Mu would’ve taken it without hesitation. Yet, there were none. Instead of spending time getting rid of all the xuan items, Chu Mu would rather bring Old Li on a trip to find xuan items and train his soul pets at the same time.


Furthermore, Chu Mu didn’t know how long he would be gone in Wupan Continent this time. He may not get the chance to bring more resources back to New Moon Land in the future. The 100,000 xuan investment should be enough to power New Moon Land’s progress in the near future. Maybe when he comes back, New Moon land will already be an incredibly powerful force. The investment may very likely yield more than even two top tier dominator rank.


……


After staying in the dark island for a while, the navy great general Xu Kuang came with a group of navy to rendezvous with them.


This time, the navy came to collect the corpses of the pirates, so it didn’t matter whether there were any traitors in their midst.


Wupan Navy quickly scoured the nearby oceans and islands as well to capture another four to five thousand pirates hiding.


“These sc.u.m are finally cleaned out. Brother Chu, thanks to you and your navy.” Xu Kuang looked at all the bundled up pirates and smiled.


To be able to clear out the dark ocean pirates, the navy contribution would ultimately land on Xu Kuang. From then on, his reputation as the navy general will definitely increase. Of course, after New Moon Land had this battle, the Guan Ocean region should all know of New Moon navy’s existence. Xu Kuang also promised that New Moon navy would be able to walk through any city and region in Guan ocean and receive the treatment of Wupan Navy’s greatest ally.


Xu Kuang told his military counselor to start totalling all the pirates that were captured and gave the bounty to Chu Mu.


Dark ocean was pretty close to New Moon Land already. New Moon Navy first had to go back to Wind Rain City. The navy members were tired and needed to go home to recover.


When they first embarked on this journey, New Moon Navy had 30 battles.h.i.+ps. When they returned, they had 15 more dominator rank s.h.i.+ps gained from the pirates.


After winning a great victory, all the navy members returning home were in a state of excitement. When they brought the news home, all the navy would be treated with honor that normal people couldn’t ever get. Thus, even though New Moon Navy was just created, thinking about the treatment they would get when they return, they couldn"t help but feel proud of their ident.i.ty as a part of the navy.


……


After returning to Windy Rain City, Chu Mu felt that with Sang Ying and Yuan Sui on New Moon Navy, they could develop well in the future. Once he gave all the resources to Elder Pang, Chu Mu wanted to go deep into Wupan Continent.


Just as he was about to leave, however, the Elder Pang gave Chu Mu a strange message telling him he had to go back to Wanxiang City first.


Chu Mu found it strange but Elder Pang said it was pretty severe, so he decided to go.


Chu Mu told Pang Yue, Ye Wansheng, and Prince Chao to go ahead towards Wupan first. After all, with his speed, he didn’t need a long time to go back to Wanxiang City and could catch up easily.


In half a day, Chu Mu got back to Wanxiang City.


After returning to Wanxiang City, Chu Mu immediately felt something was off.


There were many palaces in the center of the city that were imposing and magnificent.


However, today, for some reason, all the palaces were shrouded in a strange dark aura. Even more shocking was Chu Mu noticed many palaces completely destroyed at the center!


New Moon Land’s capital Wanxiang City had been attacked!


Chu Mu’s heart sank and he quickly flew over to soul palace.


Soul palace seemed relatively fine. The main estruction came from nightmare palace. The palaces that took a lot of resources to create were almost completely in rubble. From the traces of destruction, one could see that it very likely was the result of a single technique!


To be able to cause all of Nightmare palace to collapse, such power was already very scary!


Chu Mu flew into the main palace and saw all of New Moon Land’s management there. Chu Mu entered the palace and saw that everyone was safe and was slightly more relieved.


“Chu Mu, perfect timing!” Bai Yu was the first to see Chu Mu and immediately jumped up from his seat.


The others all saw Chu Mu as if they saw their savior and let out breaths of relief.


“What’s wrong, why are we in such a bad spot?” Chu Mu asked.


“Don’t ask, just come with me first. Cloud gate elder is suppressing it right now.” Bai Yu brought Chu Mu straight towards the destroyed Nightmare Sacred Realm.


Everyone followed along. Chu Mu found it strange that everyone felt that he could easily solve the issue.


While he was confused, Chu Mu was also shaken. Just what was happening that required even Cloud Gate Elder to intervene?


As everyone came to Nightmare Palace, Chu Mu found that the nightmare sacred realm was still well protected.


After entering the nightmare sacred palace, Chu Mu saw a stunning scene!


Black devil flames!!


The entire Nightmare Sacred Region was covered in black devil flames. This evilness was many times stronger than silver devil flames. Chu Mu himself was a devil man, but when he saw the black flames, he couldn’t help but shudder!


“This…. What is this?” Chu Mu said with surprise.


Chu Mu had seen cyan flames, blue flames, white flames, and silver flames, but he had never seen black devil flames. He could clearly feel that the black flames were even more dominant than silver flames in many aspects!


“See for yourself.” Bai Yu stood just outside of the devil flames and pointed at the sacred realm gate.


The sacred realm’s gates were wide open and was covered in black flames already.


In the door, covered in black flames, a black devil figure covered in thick devil flames stood there, its cold eyes staring angrily at the cloud gate elder suppressing it.


The cloud gate elder stood in the sacred palace, his ice type soul pet casting a strange technique that created two completely transparent ice walls that got the black figure stuck in the sacred realm gate, stopping it from going back into the sacred realm but also preventing it from entering the sacred palace.


Black Nightmare!


Chu Mu had never expected black nightmares to exist in this world!!


Even more shocking, Chu Mu found that this black nightmare was in the shape of himself!


“Chu brat, how long are you going to stare for, tell it to stop.” Cloud gate elder yelled!


Chu Mu was lost in thought until Cloud Gate Elder yelled. He suddenly felt this black nightmare felt incredibly familiar!


“Chu Mu, this black nightmare is one of your old white nightmare subordinates. It has no consciousness right now but respects you greatly. After destroying the nightmare palace, it didn’t dare continue because it saw your statue.” Liu Binglan said.


Even Chu Mu himself found it hard to believe because he already recognized this black nightmare. It was the white nightmare emperor Third White that brought back Ning Maner!


It became a black nightmare, was this a species mutation??
