Supreme Tamer

Chapter 92: Secretly Following the Assassination

Translator: 549690339

Chu Mu encountered a wild boar as he walked out of the Mountain Abyss. After MO Ye killed it, Chu Mu casually threw the corpse to the Spotted Demon tiger.

The Spotted Demon Tiger was a High-ranking Commander-level Soul Pet, and it had already reached the Fifth Rank through metamorphosis. It could be considered a local overlord on the island. To be trapped and starved to death would be a tragic end for it.

Chu Mu happened to have a low-priced soul core on him, so after MO Ye killed the wild boar, Chu Mu put the soul core into its body as a sign of respect for the strong Spotted Demon Tiger.

The Spotted Demon Tiger remained vigilant, and after Chu Mu threw the corpse to it, he did not linger and left the valley directly.

Leaving the valley and walking straight ahead, he encountered a dense and gloomy forest in front of him.

Above the forest were low dark clouds, making the entire forest appear as if it were shrouded in shadows. In Chu Mu’s view, even if sunlight spilled onto it, it would have been hard for the forest to show any signs of life, as the wind blowing from it was cold and icy.

The Ice-Feathered Spirit was severely injured, and even with healing potions, it would probably take ten days to fully recover. Chu Mu didn’t risk entering the strange forest but traveled with MO Ye between the valley and the jungle, looking for ice-attributed soul pets as food for the Ice-Feathered Spirit.

Over the course of ten days, Chu Mu stayed nearby and obtained approximately ten third-level soul cores.

In these ten days, the Ice-Feathered Spirit also finally fully recovered. “Now that your wounds have healed, come out and get some fresh air.”

Chu Mu returned MO Ye to the Soul Pet Space and then summoned the Ice-Feathered Spirit.

Chu Mu was somewhat surprised when he summoned the Ice-Feathered Spirit because its body immediately emitted a glow and was enveloped in a white radiance.

“Can rank be advanced after recovery from injury?” Chu Mu looked at the

Ice-Feathered Spirit, whose body was undergoing transformation, and showed a surprised expression on his face.

‘ The Ice-Feathered Spirit seemed very happy, emitting crisp sounds like ice crystals rubbing against each other.

“Second Rank Ninth Stage, Ice Skin Defense at the Initial Stage of Third Level, under the effect of Ice Armor, the defense power can compete with Full Stage Level 3 Defense Skin…”

Indeed, the defense power of the Ice-Feathered Spirit was incredibly strong. At just the Second Rank Ninth Stage, its defense had already reached the Full Stage of Third Level, so many Third Rank warrior-level soul pets might find it difficult to break through its defense.

The Ice-Feathered Spirit approached Chu Mu, pointed at the contents of his parcel, and made a sound.

Chu Mu looked confusedly at the parcel, only to find that something seemed to be emitting a magical glow from within.

“It’s glowing; could there be a prisoner with a scroll nearby?”

After opening the parcel, Chu Mu found the scroll shimmering with a special magical glow.

This kind of scroll was engraved with special sensing runes, which would emit a glow once other scrolls like it were nearby. This was one of the methods the Nightmare Demon Palace used to force prisoners to kill each other.

Chu Mu tried to walk forward, but the light became dimmer. So he began to move backward.

After determining a direction, Chu Mu continued to retreat. Soon, he found that the other scroll seemed to be approaching the valley he had passed through earlier.

Chu Mu was on the hillside, so he deliberately climbed down and went to the far end of the valley’s entrance, looking down from a high vantage point at the people trying to enter the valley.

“The scroll is glowing; there must be a prisoner nearby with another scroll.” “Let’s not worry about that for now; we can deal with it after we handle this.”

“Yeah, if we can capture this Spotted Demon Tiger, Third Uncle will surely reward us.” Yang Jinglian said.

“Of course, the signal has been sent out, right?” Yang Jingli asked.

“Don’t worry, they’ll be here soon.” Yang Jinglian responded.

As they spoke, Yang Jinglian deliberately surveyed the surroundings, trying to see if the prisoner was nearby. If so, they would kill him on the spot, making it harder for them to find him next time.

Chu Mu hid behind a tree in a high place. At this moment, he had already released his soul sense, allowing him to hear their conversation from afar.

“Yang Jingli, hmph, it really is you. And you even brought your useless little brother. It’s perfect for me to take you both down!” Chu Mu revealed a cunning smile.

Yang Jingli is a Four Thoughts Soul Master, and Chu Mu is two ranks higher, making it impossible for Yang Jingli to detect Chu Mu’s soul sense listening in on their conversation.

Yang Jinglian is Yang Jingli’s brother, and according to Chu Mu’s estimate, he should be a Second Rank Soul Master.

Many youths have been dispatched to recover the stolen treasure of the Yang Family, and without the protection of their elders, they have become the perfect sharpening stone for Chu Mu’s skills!

Chu Mu buried the scroll under the tree, marked the spot, and then quickly slid down the mountain. He followed the two brothers while maintaining a certain distance, as they entered the valley.

Both adversaries are Soul Masters, capable of summoning two soul pets to fight. Chu Mu may have to face four soul pets, and although he has MO Ye, he cannot be too reckless.

“It seems like the prisoner has gone far away.” Yang Jinglian held the scroll and found that the scroll’s glow had slowly dimmed. He spoke up.

“No matter, we can find the scroll again later. Capturing the trapped Spotted Demon Tiger is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity right now.” Yang Jingli said.

Spotted Demon Tigers are high-ranking commander-level creatures, with their pets at the high -level war general rank being considered dominant forces in their region.

Young ones would typically be accompanied by their parents, making it extremely difficult to acquire a high-ranking commander-level soul pet like a Spotted Demon Tiger, especially one that has grown and metamorphosed to the fifth rank!

Above Soul Warriors are Soul Masters. Soul Masters’ soul senses can control commander-level soul pets. However, in reality, it is difficult for many people who reach the Soul Master level to genuinely own a commander-level soul pet.

The higher the species rank, the rarer the soul pet. For example, the Spotted Demon Tiger.

Generally, Spotted Demon Tigers can only be found in deep mountains and old forests. To find one, you often have to venture into extremely dangerous areas.

Furthermore, for high-ranking creatures like Spotted Demon Tigers, once they reach the third rank, their minds become mature, and they often refuse to sign a soul pact with humans, even if it means facing death.

Juvenile Spotted Demon Tigers have weaker minds and are more dependent, but they are usually protected by mature members of their own kind. Unless you can defeat a fifth or sixth rank Spotted Demon Tiger, there is no chance of getting a juvenile Spotted Demon Tiger.

In trading posts, a commander-level soul pet below the second rank, even one with average talent, is priced at a unit of 100,000 gold coins.

A fifth rank Spotted Demon Tiger is even more valuable, and whoever can tame it would become famous in Gangluo City!
