Chapter 233: Chapter 114: Ice Extreme, Sin Source Cold Pool
Translator: 549690339
The realm of the strong was alluring to everyone. Chu Mu longed to see the mysterious unknown realm where Liu Binglan was. However, Chu Mu knew that Liu Binglan’s cultivation methods for him would be very rigid, even having all the soul pets prepared for him.
Chu Mu, under the influence of Chu Tiancheng, had grown accustomed to choosing his own soul pets and cultivating them. He wasn’t used to Liu Binglan’s methods.
Moreover, Chu Mu’s soul pets now had great potential. His main task now was to enhance the strength of these existing soul pets!
Liu Binglan had already used the cold ice potion to suppress Chu Mu’s soul flames, which would not harm his body for about two years.
Of course, Chu Mu was sure that entering the half-demon state would probably intensify the burning of his own soul. It seemed that the half-demon state should not be used unless absolutely necessary.
The wooden house where Chu Mu was staying was the hidden residence of
Illusion Elder. It was located in a beautiful bamboo forest in West Lingcheng Region, which was very unique and elegant. It was rare to see a raccoon-like creature with such tastes.
Illusion Elder’s real name was Ligu. Illusion Elder was just a title he gave to himself. Chu Mu felt it was very awkward to call a creature that had a raccoon head but short arms and legs as Illusion Elder, simply calling him “Fox Elder”.
After getting to know him, Chu Mu learned that Fox Elder had no human bloodline and was a pure soul pet. He could also sign a soul contract with humans. However, Fox Elder’s combat power was almost negligible, so nobody would sign a contract with him.
Fox Elder was a Demon Spirit type soul pet, a raccoon among the Demon Spirit type that had the ability to transform into other forms. However, this guy was not very good at it and failed to transform into a human, resulting in his current appearance.
As Liu Binglan had said, Fox Elder was knowledgeable and experienced, which was very helpful to Chu Mil’s cultivation path and the nurturing of his soul pets. With this guy, Chu Mu didn’t need to consult any books, as he had a raccoon-voiced encyclopedia by his side.
However, this guy had a fatal bad habit – he liked to exaggerate real events and lie. Therefore, Chu Mu sometimes needed the ability to discern between the truth and falsehoods spoken by him.
Liu Binglan had finally reunited with her son and was reluctant to leave him so quickly after just a few meetings. She purposely accompanied Chu Mu for a while.
Liu Binglan was indeed a cold beauty. She didn’t like to talk much, and even her smiles were rare. She didn’t know how to communicate with Chu Mu as a
mother. In the end, she decided to quickly find the Heavenly Earth Immortal Ice to treat Chu Mu’s condition, and didn’t waste any more time, leaving alone…
Watching Liu Binglan leave on her Starlight Soul Pet, Chu Mu felt a mix of emotions. Chu Mu was no longer the naive and angry youth of before. He vaguely sensed some changes in Liu Binglan’s attitude towards him. Now that she had left, he felt somewhat at a loss.
“Young Master, these past few days, Her Highness the Female Venerate has spoken the most and laughed the most.” Fox Elder stood beside Chu Mu, waving his short hand as he spoke.
‘Yeah, I can see that.” Chu Mu nodded. Liu Binglan’s personality was a habit formed over many years. She wasn’t a nurturing person, and she didn’t like to talk much.
Chu Mu looked at Liu Binglan’s Starlight Soul Pet and asked Fox Elder, “What is her Starlight Soul Pet?”
Fox Elder stroked his beard with his short hand and said enviously, “Her
Highness’s soul pet has a great background. It came from one of the Six Emperor Pets in the Liuchen Space and is called ‘Star River’. The Star River has no information in any documents, so it’s impossible to classify its race. Only Her Highness has seen the true form of the Star River, and its combat power is extremely terrifying. It almost dominates among the Winged Soul Pets. In other words, its combat power is comparable to that of the Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor in the Sky Forest of the Southern Restricted Area, ranking at the top level in the entire Soul Pet Field…”
Chu Mu still nodded in understanding. In this case, Liu Binglan’s strength was actually above that of the Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor, as the Star River was only one of her soul pets.
As for Liu Binglan’s own cultivation, Chu Mu could guess that it had reached the Soul Emperor level.
“But, Young Master, you have already reached the Soul Lord level at such a young age, and you have such a powerful soul pet as the White Nightmare Demon. I’m sure it won’t take you long to reach Her Highness’s level.” Fox Elder immediately flattered.
Chu Mu raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
“By the way, Young Master, where are we going now? Are we going straight to World City, or do you have some other plans?” Fox Elder asked.
“Let’s head to South Domain first,” Chu Mu said.
The family had already relocated to the South Domain, which was free of Nightmare Demon Palace’s influence. If they were to head towards World City directly, their journey would pass through the South Domain anyway. Chu Mu felt it was necessary to visit South Domain first to check on the family’s current situation. Once he confirmed they were safe, he would continue heading east…
Chu Mu had already asked Liu Binglan about Chu Tiancheng’s situation. She said she hadn’t been in touch with Chu Tiancheng for years and only knew that he seemed to want to reclaim what was rightfully his. He had gone east to resume his cultivation. Chu Mu didn’t have any news of him for now, so he followed Liu Binglan’s suggestion and headed towards World City to see the so-called World Decree.
“Young Master, there is a Sin Source Cold Pool between West Lingcheng Region and South Domain that I suggest you soak in. It will greatly benefit your current physical condition. Moreover, if you have any Ice attribute soul pets, they may be able to obtain some Ice attribute enhancements in the Sin Source Cold Pool,” Fox Elder said.
“Oh, where is this Sin Source Cold Pool located?” Chu Mu raised his eyebrows and immediately asked.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit was currently at the Sixth Rank, Third-stage, wielding only the common Ice Crystal. If it could comprehend or acquire the Xuan Crystal Soul Orb, the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s strength could also be improved to a certain extent.
“It’s located where the West Lingcheng Region borders South Domain. However, the area is filled with danger, so I suggest you go there with people who are familiar with it to ensure greater safety,” Fox Elder said.
Chu Mu’s journey to South Domain’s Chu family relocation site would require him to pass through the border between West Lingcheng Region and South Domain. As the Sin Source Cold Pool could strengthen the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s Ice attribute, Chu Mu decided to head there. He immediately summoned his Night Thunder Dream Beast and charged towards the junction of West Lingcheng Region and South Domain.
In truth, the Sin Source Cold Pool between West Lingcheng Region and South Domain was hidden deep within hundreds of continuous mountains.
Most of these mountains were bare. When viewed from a distance on the grasslands, they resembled a serpentine rock dragon lying dormant between heaven and earth. Each peak was shrouded by a mysterious black cloud, with resplendent lightning occasionally striking down, making the continuous Sin Source Mountain Range appear even more eerie and secretive.
After more than half a month of pursuit, Chu Mu traversed West Lingcheng Region and arrived at a Ninth-level City called Cold Pool City, located in the southeastern part of West Lingcheng Region, which was nearest to the Sin Source Cold Pool.
The city of Cold Pool was naturally formed by relying on the cold pools within the bare mountain ranges. With many soul pets inhabiting the Sin Source Mountains, the city gradually attracted more Soul Pet Masters…
“The Sin Source Cold Pool has a two-year cycle of alternating surpluses and deficits. If I remember correctly, it should currently be in its surplus phase. People from surrounding domains should all be dispatched here to search for a saturated Sin Source Cold Pool,” Fox Elder stood on the head of the Night Thunder Dream Beast and said to Chu Mu.
“Finding a saturated Sin Source Cold Pool? Are there many Sin Source Cold Pools there?” Chu Mu asked.
“There are many, even thousands, but most of them are depleted. It is difficult to find a real Sin Source Cold Pool with water in it unless you are fortunate during ordinary days.
“So, a lot of people from surrounding domains will come here. Who are they? Will it cause a chaotic battle here?” Chu Mu asked.
“West Lingcheng is bound to send some young Soul Pet Masters from West Lingcheng City. After all, the water from these Sin Source Cold Pools is still effective for ice attribute soul pets that haven’t been significantly strengthened. In addition, young members with ice attribute soul pets from South Domain’s Southern Sect, Great Chu Noble Family from Wogu Domain, Yang Clan from Gangluo City, and Jia Family from Jia Domain are likely to be sent here to visit. Over the years, they have gradually turned the acquisition of the Sin Source Cold Pool into a habit of covert competition. Sometimes, they will even fight over a cold pool,” Fox Elder said.
“Well, that’ll be lively,” Chu Mu grinned. Since these powers sent their descendants to search for treasure, it was evident that the Sin Source Cold Pool water must indeed be a rare spiritual item.
“Hehe, Young Master is Young Master, always embracing challenges. The children sent by these forces are mostly core members with decent strength. If Young Master has the time, you can indeed subdue those arrogant young males and tease the beautiful female disciples…” Fox Elder said with a grin.
Fox Elder loved listening to gossip and knew about the Prison Island King Chu Mu. He believed Chu Mu’s strength would suffice to deal with those young talents from those forces.
