Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Black Night Demon Cry

Soul Pet Masters care deeply about the feeding process of their Soul Pets. For Chu Mu’s MO Ye, Chu Mu would never allow MO Ye to consume Soul Cores of attributes other than Beast and Demon Spirit types unless absolutely necessary.
Although the effects of feeding Soul Cores are generally not very significant, if fed slowly from the initial stage of a Soul Pet, these subtle effects will become much more apparent as the Soul Pet reaches the higher stages.
If it were said that Soul Cores need a long-term accumulation and feeding process to bring about changes, then Soul Crystals are what directly enhances a Soul Pet’s attributes most significantly. Soul Crystals can even completely change the Soul Pet’s attributes and add an additional attribute to the pet!
Chu Mu’s Moonlight Fox is a combination of the Beast system and Demon
Spirit system, featuring both Beast and Demon Spirit attributes. Zhou Shengmo’s Fierce Wolf is a pure Beast type – a single Beast attribute. Although the Flames Tail is also a Beast type, their main attribute is Beast; however, their sub-attribute is Fire.
MO Ye’s offensive methods are very single-minded. Its Demon Spirit skill is only an interference skill, and its attacking skill is only Tearing Claw. This is likely a common problem for Soul Pets with low Species Ranking. If MO Ye is to become stronger, it is crucial to increase its attributes!
Fire Attribute is precisely the one Chu Mu is very satisfied with. If it can become one of MO Ye’s sub-attributes, MO Ye’s combat power will definitely be elevated by a level. Moreover, Chu Mu’s future race mutation is likely to move towards a mutation with the Fire Attribute!
Chu Mu showed a big smile. This continuous battle not only eliminated his most troublesome opponent but also brought him enormous benefits.
“Once MO Ye recovers, I’ll begin training him. MO Ye’s diet will mainly consist of Demon Spirit, Beast, and Fire Attribute types. This first-level Soul Crystal is only the beginning. If we can obtain more dual-attribute Soul Crystals in the future, his innate attributes will become even stronger.”
These dual-attribute Soul Crystals serve two purposes. Firstly, they enable MO Ye to undergo a qualitative change, raising its Beast Attribute talents and increasing the rate of growth for strength, speed, and defense. Secondly, they grant MO Ye a Fire Attribute!
After using this Soul Crystal, MO Ye’s strength will surely rise to a new level!
Chu Mu carefully stored the Soul Crystal and slowly walked towards the corpse of Zhou Shengmo in the forest.
MO Ye clearly harbored great resentment towards Zhou Shengmo, whose neck, back, and even the back of his head were riddled with shocking claw marks. The bloody and mangled corpse was an excruciating sight.
Chu Mu didn’t come here to mutilate the corpse; he just wanted to see if there was anything valuable on Zhou Shengmo’s body that he could take away.
“A few Soul Cores. There’s nothing else?” Chu Mu searched but only found a few snacks for MO Ye and nothing more.
The Beast attribute Soul Cores in Zhou Shengmo’s possession were obviously meant for feeding the Fierce Wolf. There were a total of three, and their quality was fairly good, meeting Chu Mu’s standards for feeding MO Ye. With the addition of Steel Fang and Fierce Wolf’s Soul Cores, Chu Mu now had a total of five Beast Attribute Soul Cores in his possession.
Once Chu Mu’s Soul Power had recovered, he would use his Soul Power to fuse the five Beast Attribute Soul Cores into a higher-quality Soul Core. This would be equivalent to providing MO Ye with the most delicious food.
The night grew darker and the forest more eerie, as Chu Mu walked alone. Chu Mu had no intention of returning to the wooden house. Both he and MO Ye were in a weakened state. Returning to the camp could make them vulnerable to other people’s schemes.
He kept walking towards the sea, reaching the cliff where he had first pondered in silence, facing the dark ocean…
Dark clouds rolled quickly above the sky like waves, and the silver cold moon stood solitary amidst the clouds, occasionally shedding some faint brilliance over Chu Mu’s body.
“It seems like the time is almost up… This devil…” Chu Mu lowered his head, looking at the surging sea water beneath his feet, muttering to himself.
The cold sea wind blew, and Chu Mu closed his eyes, entering a meditative
state, ready to struggle against the demon within his body.
The White Nightmare Demon had a huge appetite, and Chu Mu had to feed it every two days. Each feeding almost drained all of his Soul Power.
It took exactly two days for Chu Mu’s Soul Power to be fully restored from depletion. It could be said that Chu Mu now maintained a terrifying balance with that demon. If Chu Mu were to waste even a little bit of Soul Power one day, or if the White Nightmare Demon was to grow another Stage, this balance would be broken.
Silver moonlight shrouded Chu Mu, as if draped in a hazy layer of silver gauze.
If one looked carefully, they would see that within the silver moonlight, a faint demonic shadow seemed to be enveloping Chu Mu’s body. The demonic shadow was constantly absorbing Chu Mu’s Soul Power from within, sucking it greedily like a hungry baby or a ravenous devil!
Suddenly, a shrill, bone-chilling cry came from Chu Mu’s body. The heart-pounding howl, facing the roaring waves, pierced through the mist, echoing continuously over the sea surface!
“Damn it, it’s not like you’ll starve to death if I feed you less Soul Power!” Chu Mu cursed, his face exceedingly pale and his entire body in extreme pain!
“Ah! !!!! !!” The Nightmare Demon’s screeching rang out once again.
Chu Mu had consumed a quarter of his Soul Power when using the Charm Soul Technique, while the White Nightmare Demon’s appetite for a cycle was nine-tenths of all his Soul Power!
The piercing scream sounded again, each demonic cry like a needle of spirit, stimulating Chu Mu’s psyche and making his head feel like it was about to split apart!
“Ah! !!!! !!” The deafening noise was driving Chu Mu almost insane!
“Damn it, be quiet for me! If you don’t let me concentrate on meditating, how am I going to give you Soul Power!!” Chu Mu bellowed in anger amidst the pain!
Chu Mu’s furious roar was very loud, drowning out the sound of the surging sea. And indeed, his roar had some effect, as the starving White Nightmare Demon suddenly quieted down, no longer putting pressure on Chu Mu.
While the White Nightmare Demon remained silent, Chu Mu instantly focused and entered the meditative state, recovering his Soul Power rapidly.
The recovery speed of Soul Power was relatively slow, and generally speaking, it would take two days to fully recover after being drained. However, if one entered a meditative state, it would only take one day.
Cold sweat ran down his face and he felt a lingering fear. Just a moment ago, Chu Mu had already felt the resentment of the White Nightmare Demon wanting to devour his soul. If it wasn’t for that angry roar just now that slightly subdued that creature, Chu Mu might have had to endure an attack of soul devouring.. That kind of pain was simply heart-wrenching!
