Chapter 46: Battle of the Second Rank Soul Pet
Translator: 549690339
Provoked by Mo Ye, the Fur Monster let out an unpleasant screech. With its powerful arms in full swing, it hurled itself directly at Mo Ye!
“Flame Glimmer, aim for its legs!”
MO Ye initially leapt back, maintaining a distance from the Second Rank Stage Two Fur Monster. When he landed, his silver eyes immediately glowed with a strange red light.
A streak of crimson shot out quickly, aiming for the Fur Monster’s leg. The creature had a pair of muscular legs, and even as the Flame Glimmer swept over, it leapt to escape, jumping a distance of five meters as the muscles on its arms suddenly bulged!
Savage Strength!
A skill possessed by many offensive Soul Pets. It concentrates power in a specific part of the body and suddenly erupts, multiplying the attack power!
“Bang!
The Fur Monster’s bulging arms pounded savagely against MO Ye. At this very moment, three blurred figures of MO Ye appeared, skillfully executing the dodge skill, Moon Shadow.
“Perfect execution of Moon Shadow, very good!” As Chu Mu noticed that MO Ye’s Moon Shadow created three mirages, a smile crept up to his lips.
When the Fur Monster took a moment to catch its breath, Chu Mu seized the moment and immediately commanded, “Attack its leg directly!”
Without the impact effect, MO Ye’s Tearing Claw couldn’t exert its full power, so Chu Mu commanded MO Ye to use a direct claw attack.
“Whoosh!!!!”
MO Ye’s attack was clean and decisive, his Second Rank Sharp Claw effortlessly tearing through the Fur Monster’s skin, leaving behind a deep bloody mark!
“Hiss! !!!!” The Fur Monster immediately let out a cry of pain and anger, its muscular arms slamming violently against MO Ye’s body.
At such close range, MO Ye struggled to dodge and was sent flying several meters by the powerful blow. He tumbled on the ground for a few turns.
Seeing MO Ye injured, Chu Mu immediately summoned his Soul Power, prepared to use the Soul Technique Charm. But MO Ye immediately rose from the ground, letting out a whine towards Chu Mu, proudly informing him that he could handle it on his own!
Chu Mu also stopped casting his own soul technique and nodded towards MO Ye saying, “Continue attacking its legs!”
MO Ye retreated a distance, and when the Fur Monster pursued, he suddenly accelerated, rushing towards the oncoming monster!
Although MO Ye’s Dark Strike was still in the late stage, an increase in speed made it even more ferocious!
Leaping forward, a silver arc glided beautifully over the bushes. MO Ye’s petite body shot out like a miniature missile, his claws tearing through the huge leg of the Fur Monster, making a long crimson blade mark!!
The crimson blade mark was incredibly eye-catching among the trees, the low shrubs being sliced down almost instantly, as though cut by a blood-red sharp blade!
“Blood Split Claw!” Seeing this, Chu Mu immediately gazed in astonishment!
Blood Split Claw!
It was an attack skill even more powerful than Tearing Claw. When the Sharp Claw passed, unless one has highly resistant skin, a bloody streak was inevitable!!
Chu Mu never expected that MO Ye, after completing the second stage of its metamorphosis, would master the Blood Split Claw – a skill reserved for higher breeds and stages of Beast Soul Pets!
Fresh blood began to flow. The Fur Monster suddenly cowered. The previous injury on its leg became even more horrifying, the bone was visible!
With its legs injured, the Fur Monster’s combat power nearly diminished to zero, even escaping was difficult. Chu Mu didn’t need to command anything now, MO Ye merely needed to swipe its Claw Blade at the Fur Monster’s vital point to end its life.
“The effect of the Soul Crystal seems significant indeed. You’ve not only gained control over the power of flames but also comprehended a new combat skill Blood Split Claw. Great, just great. Now, unless it’s a Soul Pet at the War General Level, I don’t think any below the second rank, third stage, would be your opponent!” Chu Mu, stroking MO Ye’s soft fur, began to speak.
“Woo, Woo, Woo ” MO Ye enjoyed Chu Mu’s petting, its beautiful eyes narrowed, making a pleasant sound.
“This Fur Monster’s Beast Attribute Soul Core is perhaps worth two silver coins…” Chu Mu took out the Fur Monster’s Soul Core and began to estimate its worth in coins.
Afterwards, Chu Mu and MO Ye started wandering around the nearby jungle, focusing on hunting Soul Pets above the 8th stage and below the second rank, third stage.
Of course, MO Ye’s stamina was not infinite. After hunting approximately six first-rank Soul Pets and three second-rank Soul Pets, MO Ye was extremely exhausted. It probably needed a day’s rest to fully regain its combat power.
Remaining in the jungle held no attraction for Chu Mu. After recalling MO Ye into the Soul Pet Space, he immediately returned to the town.
“Second-Rank Beast Attribute Soul Core, two silver coins. Second-Rank Wood Attribute Soul Core, 1.5 silver coins. Second-Rank Insect Attribute Soul Core, three silver coins. The other six Soul Cores, altogether, would be 3-5 silver coins. That comes to exactly 1 gold coin…” The old vendor was still listless.
Chu Mu nodded his head, handing over the soul cores to the old fellow, and finally managed to gather another gold coin.
The old vendor looked at Chu Mu and noticed his happiness over the gold coin. He then showed a curious expression and said, “By the way, we seldom do such retail transactions. Next time, find me when you’ve collected Soul Cores worth at least ten gold coins…”
Chu Mu glanced at the old guy and said: “In such a short time, it’s impossible for me to gather that many Soul Cores. Besides, I just arrived on this island and
I am not familiar with it…”
The old vendor raised his eyebrows and asked, “Are you a new comer?” Chu Mu nodded.
Not everyone living on the island belongs to the Nightmare Demon Palace, the de facto ruler of the island.
Receiving Chu Mu’s affirmative response, the old vendor seemed slightly surprised. He looked Chu Mu over carefully for a while before asking, “Are these Soul Cores you’re selling to me now hunted by you today?”
Chu Mu nodded and said, “Is there a problem?”
“Not exactly a problem. I am just surprised that a servant of the Green Nightmare Demon Palace could gather these Soul Cores in such a short time. It seems you must be a standout among those who were sent to the island recently.” the old vendor said.
“Heh heh. I like dealing with promising individuals. Doing business with someone like you, is akin to an investment. You can still sell your Soul Cores to me in the future. I can give you a higher price. Besides Soul Cores, I deal in a wide range of other things. You can ask me if you need anything. I might be able to give you a very nice price.” the old vendor continued.
“Oh? Do you have Tianlan grass here?” Chu Mu immediately asked.
“Yes, one plant for eight silver coins.” the old vendor replied.
