Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Trapped Ferocious Beast (Part 1)
Translator: 549690339
Continuing straight towards the north side of the lake, Chu Mu noticed that the map in his hand only roughly depicted the edge of the basin jungle.
To the north of the basin jungle was a towering mountain peak that rose dramatically from the ground. Chu Mu spent one night at the foot of the mountain and heard a heartbeat-like sound that was incredibly unsettling.
The mountain peak was thousands of meters high, and the calls from such a high altitude still made people feel a chill in their bones. It was clear that some very powerful soul pets must be inhabiting the mountain peak.
Chu Mu had self-knowledge and knew the top of the mountain was extremely dangerous, inhabited by powerful creatures. Chu Mu had no choice but to walk around the edge of the mountain peak and entered a narrow valley.
âWhooshâââ
The wind in the valley was bitterly cold, like a sharp blade cutting oneâs skin. Occasionally, there were also dead branches and falling leaves mixed in the windâŠ
By the time Chu Mu had traversed the complicated basin jungle, bypassed the mountain peak, and reached the only valley that could lead to the north, a month had already passed.
Over the course of the month, Chu Mu did not catch up with the two men from the Yang Family but had encountered quite a few prisoners. Through continuous battles, the Ice-Feathered Spirit reached the second rank, 8th stage. MO Yeâs strength had also improved by one stage, and Chu Mu finally advanced to become a Sixth Thought Soul Master.
âRrr-
Although the Ice-Feathered Spirit had low intelligence, it always seemed to be able to spot easily overlooked places.
After Chu Mu heard the sound of the Ice-Feathered Spirit, he immediately looked in the direction it was pointing, only to find a thick layer of moss-like plants covering the valley floor.
âWhatâs wrong with these?â Chu Mu asked, puzzled.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit pointed at the plants and uttered a stream of strange language to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu had only learned Beast Language, so he could only understand the language of soul pets in the Demon Beast World to some extent, but he was still clueless about the Elemental Worldâs language. Chu Mu could only guess what the Ice-Feathered Spirit was trying to convey by the spiritual connection between them.
âThese plants are very special. Youâve seen them before, right?â Chu Mu asked.
The Ice -Feathered Spirit shook its head, sending its spiritual message into Chu Muâs mind.
As if understanding something, Chu Mu took out the âPlant Worldâ book from his bag and began looking for a similar soul pet in the volume.
As expected, when Chu Mu focused on the soul pets that lived in the valley area, the Pet Compendium immediately displayed some information about the plants beneath Chu Muâs feet.
âValley Moss, where Valley Moss grows, there is often a third-level medicinal herb called Cold Valley Ginseng. Cold Valley Ginseng is the most direct medicinal herb and is very helpful for the growth of ice attribute soul petsâŠâ
After reading through the introduction, Chu Mu looked at the Ice-Feathered Spirit and laughed, âSo there is some delicious stuff for you here, no wonder your sense of smell is so sensitive.â
The Ice-Feathered Spirit nodded.
âThis is the only passage from the previous basin jungle to the north. Many prisoners might pass through here. If there are third -level medicinal herbs here, I donât know if they have been taken away by them, â Chu Mu said.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit seemed to be able to sense the location of the special plants growing in the cold area and led the way for Chu Mu.
Chu Mu followed the Ice-Feathered Spirit, moving through the complex valley.
When the Ice-Feathered Spirit led Chu Mu to a very narrow path, he couldnât help but hesitate, zazinz at the dead-end vallev with no wav forward.
The valley path in front of him was an offshoot from a dead-end road beside the main valley. Not only was it shrouded in shadows, it was also covered in Valley Moss. The average person would easily overlook this path with a single glance.
What surprised Chu Mu was that the Ice-Feathered Spirit had found a crevice-like valley path in the cliff of such a dead-end valley, covered in frost and vegetation.
The Ice-Feathered Spirit walked ahead, bringing Chu Mu into this unusually special valley path.
The deeper they went, the colder Chu Mu felt. And when he emerged from the crevice, what appeared before him made him feel even more astonished!
Surrounded by towering cliffs, Chu Mu could see no other way out except for the narrow crevice path he used to get in. The cliffs were high and soared straight from the ground, encircling the area. Even if he looked up, all he could see was a hazy sky. Standing there, Chu Mu felt like he had fallen into a
gigantic deep well!
The base of the cliff occupied an area of about fifty meters. Perhaps due to the unique environment, the trees and bushes were shorter than typical plants but thicker in foliage.
The plants that grew here were mostly shade-loving. Although the environment wasnât damp, Chu Mu felt a hint of coldness.
âSsshhhhhhhââ-â
Suddenly, Chu Mu heard a rustling sound from the low-lying bushes. He immediately had the Ice-Feathered Spirit cast Ice Armor on him while raising his guard.
âRoar! !!!!! ! â
Almost as soon as the Ice Armor was cast on Chu Mu, a sudden terrifying roar swept by, hitting Chu Muâs face like a mad gale. The piercing chill invaded Chu Muâs entire body, causing him to freeze!
âBoom!! !!! â
Chu Mu couldnât see the sudden Soul Petâs movements, but he suddenly found that it ferociously lunged at the Ice-Feathered Spirit, its claws ruthlessly stabbing into the Ice-Feathered Spiritâs body!
âCrack! !!! The Ice-Feathered Spiritâs body shattered like a mirror. Its ice-covered body had a huge empty layer pierced directly through it!
Chu Mu was horrified. The first thing he did was recite a spell, immediately recalling the severely injured Ice-Feathered Spirit back to the Soul Pet Space.
Feeling the frightening gaze staring at him, Chu Mu retreated several steps, rolling back into the narrow crevice!
âRoar!
A claw suddenly stretched into the crevice. Though Chu Muâs body was not touched, the razor-sharp blade shattered his Ice Armor. Chu Mu felt a sharp pain in his abdomen!
âRoar!!!!! Roar!!!!!!!â
Chu Mu retreated with a pale face, his eyes fixed on the ferocious beast with an over three-meter-long neck in the cliff crevice!
A cold sensation crept up the back of his neck. Chu Mu hadnât ventured too far into the Sealed Mountain Abyss, justifiably fearing this situation would occur. He never expected that such a terrifying Soul Pet would be lurking in this fully enclosed place!
Moreover, Chu Mu and this Soul Pet were less than five meters apart. Chu Mu could stare into the Soul Petâs eyes. If it werenât for the fact that this ferocious creature was too big to enter the crevice, Chu Mu would have been killed on the spot!
(I have an ear infection, and itâs quite severe. The pain makes me want to give myself anesthesia and sleep it off. Iâll post just two chapters today and go to the hospital tomorrow.. If itâs nothing serious, I will resume regular updates tomorrowâŠ)
