“Ning, are you alright?” Chu Mu immediately opened the healing potion and used his soul sense to introduce the healing potion into the soul pet space to heal Ice-Feathered Spirit’s wounds.
“Ling——“
The Ice-Feathered Spirit let out a weak voice, it seemed that the attack just now had indeed caused it severe damage.
After applying the healing potion to the Ice-Feathered Spirit, Chu Mu specifically checked the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body and only after confirming that it was not in any life-threatening danger did Chu Mu let out a big sigh of relief.
“Fortunately, it’s an elemental soul pet, without blood, arteries, and internal organs. Otherwise, that claw might have been fatal,” Chu Mu said, still feeling the lingering apprehension.
This time, he had indeed been a bit careless. Fortunately, the crack was narrow and just wide enough to accommodate Chu Mu.
“Roar!!!
Showing a ferocious face, the malicious soul pet did not seem to want to give up and was still raking the rock wall with its claws. The power of this ferocious beast soul pet was also quite terrifying, as it actually managed to break through the thick rock. If the crack wasn’t so long and sturdy, it might have been broken directly!
“Spotted demon tiger, at least Fifth Rank.”
Chu Mu retreated while keeping an eye on the intimidating and fierce soul pet.
Spotted demon tiger: Demon Beast World – Beast type – Demon Tiger Clan –
Spotted demon tiger Sub-clan – High-ranking Commander-level
Sharp teeth like a sword, able to tear through higher-level defenses with its robust tiger body. It is the purest beast attribute soul pet, with its astonishing power and terrifying explosive force making it almost invincible in close combat.
High -ranking Commander-level and at Fifth Rank was enough to compete with Xia Guanghan’s Winged Rank Tiger, a soul pet that Chu Mu, at his current stage, simply couldn’t handle.
Realizing his lack of strength, Chu Mu decisively turned and left, abandoning the medicinal herbs inside.
“Roar!!
The angry roar of the Spotted demon tiger continued to echo behind him, and when Chu Mu had just reached the entrance of the crack, he suddenly realized a problem.
“Spotted demon tigers can’t fly. With a rank of five, they can probably jump tens of meters, but that abyss earlier was at least twenty meters deep, and the crack is so narrow, could it be…”
Chu Mu immediately turned around, his gaze fixed on the Spotted demon tiger constantly clawing at the stone wall crack. At this moment, Chu Mu saw that although the Spotted demon tiger’s face looked fierce, its eyes revealed some strange emotions.
Chu Mu stopped in his tracks, backed up slowly, and began chanting a spell.
Chu Mu had learned the Beast Language and could communicate roughly through this soul skill with soul pets of the Demon Beast World.
“Are you trapped here and can’t get out?” Through the Beast Language, Chu Mu turned his thoughts into a wave of mental energy and transmitted it into the Spotted demon tiger’s mind.
The Spotted demon tiger had a bad temper, and in response to Chu Mu’s question, it roared a few more times in denial, apparently trying to maintain its dignity.
“There are only plants inside there, nothing you can eat. I think you must be eating other soul pets who accidentally entered here,” Chu Mu asked while maintaining his distance from the Spotted demon tiger.
“Roar!!!!!!!!!” The Spotted demon tiger still didn’t admit it.
“Only by reaching higher stages can you jump out of this Mountain abyss or break through this crack. But here, there is a lack of battles, soul cores, and food, and your strength has been improving very slowly. I don’t know how many years it will take for you to escape,” Chu Mu continued.
It seemed that Chu Mu had hit a sore spot, and the Spotted Demon Tiger immediately became angry, spewing a biting breath towards the crevice in the cliff where Chu Mu was!!!
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!!” The roar was like a magical gust of wind, and Chu Mu quickly chanted a wind dragon wrap spell to protect himself, avoiding the Spotted Demon Tiger’s breath attack.
“Don’t worry, I’m not your opponent. You’re just trapped here and things don’t look good. I just want to help you escape,” Chu Mu said.
Seeing the Spotted Demon Tiger’s emotions calm down, Chu Mu continued, “I really can help you escape from here. You must have been trapped here for a long time.”
“Roar—” The Spotted Demon Tiger expressed some doubt about Chu Mu’s words.
Soul pets at the fifth rank already have a very high intelligence. These soul pets have independent thinking abilities and simple logical reasoning, so naturally, the Spotted Demon Tiger found it hard to believe Chu Mu’s words.
“I am a Soul Pet Master, and I have a special ring that can store soul pets in a unique space. When I get out of here, I can open the ring and release you, and then you’ll be free…” Chu Mu said.
“Roar! !!! ! ‘I
The Spotted Demon Tiger was angry again. Being highly intelligent, it of course knew what the so-called soul pet ring was. It was like a dark prison, and if it entered, it would be impossible to escape!
Soul pet rings are used by Soul Pet Masters to capture soul pets without signing a soul pact. Some soul pet hunters often carry a large soul pet ring to catch soul pets in the wild and then auction them at the Soul Pet Palace or the trading place.
Chu Mu bought the soul pet ring in his hand for five gold coins when he was in Heng City. It could only hold one soul pet and was a rather poor-quality soul pet ring.
“Actually, you have no other choices. When you attacked me just now, I saw quite a few human corpses nearby. I think you must have noticed that there have been many more people on the island recently. They will eventually find this place, and if they call a large group of people to fight you, you, who are trapped here, will still be killed by them. My soul pet ring can’t contain a powerful soul pet like you, and you can easily shatter it with just any of your skills… ” Chu Mu said.
“Roar!!!!!” The Spotted Demon Tiger still didn’t quite trust Chu Mu and roared to signal him to leave.
“Since you don’t believe me, I’ll have to leave.” Chu Mu helplessly shook his head.
Chu Mu actually planned to help the Spotted Demon Tiger escape. Once he moved the Spotted Demon Tiger out, the plants in the abyss would belong to
Chu Mu, who needed to use Gu Lengsen to treat and enhance the power of his Ice-Feathered Spirit.
As for what Chu Mu just said, it was indeed true. The ring Chu Mu had couldn’t trap a fifth-rank Spotted Demon Tiger at all.
The light in the abyss gradually dimmed, and the Spotted Demon Tiger watched the human who had been talking to it walk away
The Spotted Demon Tiger lay down somewhat dispiritedly on the somewhat cold grass, closed its eyes, and prepared to sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, the Spotted Demon Tiger heard faint footsteps again. It instantly perked up its ears and hurriedly hid nearby.
“Thump-” Suddenly, a bloodied corpse was thrown in…
The Spotted Demon Tiger looked at the Iron Tooth Wild Pig corpse with confusion.
“This is food for you. There’s a soul core inside that should keep you warm and fed for a few days… I hope your companion finds you and helps you escape someday.”
The Spotted Demon Tiger’s eyes changed again, as the voice of the human from before came from the crack, but it soon faded away. He had clearly left after dropping the corpse.
(I’ve been updating very irregularly lately, and I’m very, very sorry. It’s because of a severe problem with my ear – I know the feeling of having a needle in my ear all too well… I will try to maintain regular updates, but if there’s any delay or postponement, I hope for everyone’s understanding…. )
