Chapter 344: Chapter 220: Bloodsucking Wood Demon Trap

This teenager seems quite confident in himself. After giving him a brief glance, Chu Mu asked, “How much are you paying as a commission?”

“500,000 Gold Coins,” the teenager replied.

The cost for guiding someone through a dangerous territory in the wild is never low. After all, only those with a certain level of strength will be able to complete such a task. The price given by the teenager for guiding someone through a territory can also roughly judge the danger level of that place. By generously offering 500,000 Gold Coins, he was informing Chu Mu that the Bloodsucking Wood Demon’s territory was not a good place.

“Alright, if you know the way.” Chu Mu said.

“…” The teenager was speechless. He had thought that Chu Mu was a local person who could take him to the Bloodsucking Wood Demon’s territory. As it turned out, Chu Mu was also from another place and had no idea how to get to the Bloodsucking Wood Demon’s territory.

“I tried to break through last time and remembered a few paths. I think I should be able to find the way there.” The teenager said.

Chu Mu nodded and asked, “Do you need to prepare anything else?”

“No, why?” the teenager asked with a puzzled tone.

“Then let’s set off right now.” Chu Mu was a decisive person. After accepting the reward, he didn’t wait until the next morning to leave, but headed straight to the destination.

The teenager was slightly stunned, then laughed and said, “Alright, let’s go.”

“Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Ting Nan.”

“Chu Chen.”

Rewards and commissions are graded, from the lowest level of First Level to the highest level of Tenth Level. The reward that Chu Mu accepted was a Seventh Level reward. Those who dare to accept high-risk commissions like Sixth Level Soul Pet Masters must have some strength. The teenager didn’t ask what level of Soul Pet Master Chu Mu was but just knew that Chu Mu was relatively strong, which seemed to be enough for him.

Reciting the spell, Chu Mu quickly completed the soul contract summoning ritual. This time, Chu Mu didn’t summon the Night Thunder Dream Beast directly but summoned Zhan Ye instead.

Now, Zhan Ye’s speed and endurance were certainly not as good as the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s. However, since this trip to the north of Thousand Wood City was mainly focused on training the Demon Tree Warrior, Zhan Ye, and the Ghost Dome King, Chu Mu needed to save soul power by not constantly switching his Soul Pets.

“War Beast Mo Ye, Sixth Rank, First Stage. It looks quite powerful,” the teenager said with a sunny smile as he looked at the awe-inspiring war beast Chu Mu summoned.

Zhan Ye briefly glanced at the teenager, his expression cold and indifferent. In times of non-battle, Zhan Ye would show an air of arrogance, completely ignoring others.

Reciting his own summoning spell, the teenager also called forth his own Soul Pet, which was, interestingly enough, also a War Beast Mo Ye.

Covered in bright ink-colored armor, with distinct and sharp edges, the Tiger God’s robust body exuded a wild aura when it moved. The violent momentum hidden in its black eyes could explode at any provocation!

“A War Beast Mo Ye at the Sixth Rank, Third Stage. This youngster is quite good, to have such a Soul Pet at this age,” Master Li said.

Chu Mu agreed to some extent, although he himself was only 19 years old. It wasn’t until two years ago that Chu Mu had not even owned a Sixth-Rank Commander Soul Pet.

Chu Mu did not make any comments on Ting Nan’s War Beast Mo Ye, but rode on Zhan Ye heading towards the North City Gate.

Compared to the thick and rigid armor on Zhan Ye’s body, Chu Mu preferred riding on Ye, or Mo Ye’s, back ridge, which was much more comfortable than Zhan Ye’s.

Speaking of which, Chu Mu seemed to have never ridden on Zhan Ye before. If he remembered correctly, back in Mo Ye Forest, Zhan Ye was only at the Fourth Rank and was a small Mo Tiger with a body length of less than one meter. Generally, Fourth-Rank Mo Yes have a body length of more than one meter. It was Zhan Ye’s flawed beast physique that made it so weak.

Now, Zhan Ye’s length had reached over two meters, with the powerful tail adding up to almost three meters. Robust muscles, broad back ridge, demonstrating the wildness and ferocity of the Beast Soul Pets, Zhan Ye was no longer the weak Mo Ye it once was…

Generally, Superior Commander-level Soul Pets have a talent equivalent to normal High-Ranking Commander-level Soul Pets.

When Chu Mu discovered Zhan Ye, its weak beast attribute was probably not much different from a War General Soul Pet. Now, after being trained by Chu Mu, it has surpassed the peak Command level and is considered one of the major generals among Chu Mu’s Soul Pets.

It would take less than an hour to reach an area 50 kilometers away on flat ground. The terrain of Yuan Forest was complex and varied. Chu Mu and Ting Nan traveled from the afternoon until dusk and wasted a lot of time finding their way. In the end, they finally found traces of the Bloodsucking Wood Demon as the sun set.

Bloodsucking Wood Demon: Plant World – Wood Type – Wood Demon Clan – Bloodsucking Wood Demon Sub-clan – Commander Level

The Bloodsucking Wood Demon is one of the cruelest Soul Pets in the Plant World. These creatures do not rely on natural nutrients and soil fertility for growth, but rather on the blood of others. The blood extracted from stronger Soul Pets holds greater energy and allows them to grow and enhance their abilities more quickly.

This lineage, which requires the blood of the powerful to enhance its strength, has in turn caused Bloodsucking Wood Demons to become the most murderous in the Plant Spirit Beast World. Thus, they gradually became known as vicious, terrifying, and tyrannical.

Bloodsucking Wood is an essence within the body of Bloodsucking Wood Demons and can only be found in those with a higher level of growth. Moreover, the probability of obtaining it is extremely low, and it is usually sold for several million in the market.

After Chu Mu and Ting Nan entered the territory of Bloodsucking Wood Demons, they successively saw some Qingmu Demons that accompanied Bloodsucking Wood Demons.

Qingmu Demon: Plant World-Wood Type-Wood Demon Clan-Qingmu Demon Sub-clan-Warrior Level

Warrior level Qingmu Demons were scattered throughout the territory of the Bloodsucking Wood Demons. When Chu Mu and Ting Nan entered, the Qingmu Demon didn’t attack them. Instead, they deliberately let Chu Mu and Ting Nan into the territory of Bloodsucking Wood Demons. It seemed as if they were telling some hidden Bloodsucking Wood Demons that food was being delivered.

“There are thirteen Qingmu Demons. Should we deal with them first?” Ting Nan released his Soul Sense, capturing the aura of thirteen Qingmu Demons.

“Yeah, let’s clear some of them first.” Chu Mu nodded.

Qingmu Demons lived in the territory of Bloodsucking Wood Demons, so they were most likely the subordinates of Bloodsucking Wood Demons. They didn’t attack and secretly followed them, probably waiting for more powerful Bloodsucking Wood Demons to appear and then launch a full-scale attack. Now, getting rid of Qingmu Demons would be a safety guarantee.

With Warrior-level Qingmu Demons having only around Rank 5, they were no match for the slaughter of two Rank 6 Mo Ye!

“Shua! Shua!”

Zhan Ye’s continuous attacks instantly killed four Qingmu Demons. The surrounding Qingmu Demons were frightened and scattered, supporting their bodies full of roots and emitting sharp, unpleasant cries as they fled deeper into the forest.

“Huhuhu~”

Suddenly, two piercing branches passed through the dense leaves and eerily appeared in front of Chu Mu and Ting Nan, directly aiming for Ting Nan’s body.

These two piercing branches were swift, akin to the power of a Demon Tree Warrior’s piercing branches. Chu Mu hadn’t expected to encounter such a powerful Bloodsucking Wood Demon so soon.

Ting Nan’s War Beast Mo Ye had a fast reaction, agilely evading the attack. The two piercing branches grazed the ink armor of the War Beast Mo Ye and, after making a piercing, metallic sound, fiercely penetrated the big tree ten meters behind Ting Nan!

“Death Light!” Chu Mu commanded Zhan Ye.

Zhan Ye stared at the origin of the piercing branches with its black eyes. It raised its head, and a dark light brewed deep within its throat. This dark light quickly condensed, transforming into a destructive Death Light!

The Death Light was emitted, exploding at the position of the hidden Bloodsucking Wood Demon in the bushes fifty meters away. The Bloodsucking Wood Demon let out a painful cry…

“Watch mine.” Ting Nan chuckled and ordered his War Beast Mo Ye as well.

A deep black light condensed in the throat of this War Beast Mo Ye, quickly turning into an energy mass with even more powerful dark power. With a roar from the War Beast Mo Ye, a thick dark Attribute enveloped the hidden Bloodsucking Wood Demon!

“Boom~”

The bushes exploded, and during the energy blast, a blood-red Demon Wood Soul Pet was blasted away, its body smashed by the Destructive Light of Ting Nan’s War Beast Mo Ye.

The blood-red Demon Wood fell from the sky to the ground, and after quickly getting up, it let out an unpleasant sound like an old man’s coughing laughter, then retreated swiftly, hiding deeper into the dense forest.

“Ha ha, my Mo Ye’s Destructive Light is more powerful.” Ting Nan laughed.

“You seem to focus more on Mo Ye’s dark Attribute?” Chu Mu asked.

Mo Ye has three attributes in total: Beast and Insect as the main, and Dark as auxiliary. Destructive Light is a Rank 6 Dark Attribute skill, which is twice as powerful as Death Light. This means that Ting Nan’s training is more focused on the Dark Attribute.

“Not entirely, my Mo Ye has a high talent for Dark Attribute, so I naturally tend to focus a bit more on the Dark Attribute during the enhancement process.” Ting Nan said proudly.

Chu Mu was about to say something when he suddenly sensed something rushing towards them.

Chu Mu closed his eyes, released his Soul Sense around him, and in the next moment, he was stunned because there were four or five Bloodsucking Wood Demon vine tendrils coming from all directions!

Chu Mu’s expression became more solemn, as he had just entered the territory of Bloodsucking Wood Demons and hadn’t even gone deep yet, but he had already encountered Bloodsucking Wood Demons so frequently that it defied reason!

“There are many Bloodsucking Wood Demons around, be careful…” Chu Mu began to warn Ting Nan, but when he turned around, he found that Ting Nan had already fled with his Soul Pet into a dense forest without looking back.

Watching Ting Nan’s fleeing figure, Chu Mu suddenly realized that the crisis Yu Lang and Feng Ya had faced not long ago had quickly befallen him!
