Chapter 637: Chapter 508: Bloody Nature, Fury Kills Prisoner (Part 1)

“Chu Chen…” Shang Heng looked at Chu Mu, his eyes becoming somewhat complex, with an undertone of pleading.

Shang Heng knew that Chu Mu’s current strength had far surpassed his own. Previously, Shang Heng, Ting Lan, and Li Zhan had fallen into a crisis. Now, only Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi could help them. Otherwise, given the prisoners’ brutality, it was impossible for Ting Lan and Li Zhan to be simply captured by the prisoners and handed over to the competition guard.

“Chu Chen, you must find a way to help Ting Lan and Li Zhan buy ten minutes. Among those prisoners, there is a very powerful Level 8 prisoner, whose target is Ting Lan. If he captures her, she’ll be in danger. So, Chu Chen, you must take action this time, no matter what. As long as you can stall for ten minutes, they will be safe as soon as the competition guard arrives…” Shang Heng implored sincerely.

Upon reaching the Eighth Realm, all the top fighters were basically saving themselves. Shang Heng knew that his request was equivalent to dragging Chu Mu into the danger as well.

However, Shang Heng really had no other choice at this point. As a Soul Pet Trainer, the nature of life and death should have been seen through long ago. What Shang Heng found hard to accept was that Ting Lan, as one of the very few female Soul Pet Trainers, if the competition guard did not arrive in time, she would be tormented by these villains.

“Qingzi, can you find the direction that smell is coming from?” asked Chu Mu.

“Hmm.” Ye Qingzi understood Chu Mu’s intention, and hopped onto the back of the Purple Robe Dream Beast, guiding the way.

Chu Mu didn’t say much, merely commanding the Night Thunder Dream Beast to closely follow Ye Qingzi.

Shang Heng was startled. He had figured Chu Mu would hesitate to face the four or so Level Eight prisoners and about ten Level Seven prisoners, given the enemy’s formidable strength.

However, Chu Mu didn’t hesitate at all and charged towards the prisoners’ location before he even finished speaking.

Staring at the retreating silhouette of Chu Mu in the darkness, Shang Heng felt a tumult of emotions, feeling sincerely grateful to Chu Mu!

…

After a long and winding mountain road, there was a line of towering cliffs erupting from the ground.

This was one of the largest fault lines on Tian Shou East Mountain. The difference in height between high and low ground was over a hundred meters, and the entire mountain was completely vertical. To reach the top of the fault line and continue heading up the mountain, one must muster up all their strength to traverse this ‘Heavenly Hidden’.

The fault’s width was more than two hundred meters, with a definite slope on the winding mountain road’s direction. The valleys on the other sides were close to vertical drops.

The valley was filled with fierce wind, forming a natural chaotic wind zone. Even Winged Soul Pets found it extremely difficult to fly in this area, let alone other Soul Pets attempting to cross the valleys on both sides. It was almost impossible. If there were enemies on the highlands, a storm of attacks would certainly send one plummeting to a gruesome death.

And it was in such a precarious situation that Li Zhan and Ting Lan are pushed to a dead end. They had nowhere to run!

Four level eight prisoners, twelve level seven prisoners!

Each prisoner was controlling two Soul Pets. That’s a total of 32 Tenth Rank Soul Pets!

In the previous battles, Ting Lan and Li Zhan killed eight Tenth Rank Commanders. But when the remaining 24 Commanders confined them at the bottom of the fault, their lives were genuinely threatened!

Li Zhan was the third strongest fighter in Soul Hall, and it was not a problem for him to face level seven or eight prisoners. But what he didn’t expect was that the prisoners, who were supposed to be scattered like other competitors, would gather in such large numbers!

Once the number of prisoners reached a certain scale, not even the strongest contestants from the major powers could handle them!

“Miss Ting Lan, you’ll be fine, trust me!” Li Zhan gritted his teeth, staring grimly at the Commanders rapidly charging up from the slope.

Ting Lan’s face was pale, the calmness usually found in her beautiful eyes was replaced with a degree of panic.

Her fingers trembled slightly. Every time she heard the prisoners’ wild laughter, she felt an extreme disgust and shivered all over.

Ting Lan could tell from the burning gazes of the prisoners what would happen to her if she fell into their hands. She began to regret not seeking the competition guard’s help before she encountered these prisoners, rather than persistently hanging on like she was now.

“Haha! Two juniors from Soul Hall, your Seven Diagram Sacred Beasts are still too fresh. It’s a waste to be in your hands!” The leading prisoner with disheveled hair laughed uproariously.

Truth be told, all the prisoners at the scene were filled with strong jealousies towards these competitors. These middle-aged Soul Pet Trainers only had the qualifications to control medium-grade Monarch-level Soul Pets when they were over thirty. But in this World’s Decree Eighth Realm, many young generation fighters owned true Monarch-level Soul Pets. At their ages, these prisoners could only control Commander-level ones at most.

…

“Bang~~~~~~~~~~~”

Finally, Ting Lan’s Ninth Stage Linyin Beast could not compete with the tenth-level quasi-monarchs, and was heavily hit into the cliff, deeply embedded into it.

Then, Ting Lan’s Elemental Soul Pet was tightly restrained by a few demon spirits, unable to perform even a basic elemental skill.

Under such circumstances, it would definitely be killed instantly as soon as it was attacked. Ting Lan didn’t want to see her Soul Pet die like this, and when her Elemental Soul Pet lost its ability to fight, she recited a spell to send it back to the Soul Pet Space.

Ting Lan had quadruple control. However, after a round of attacks, the Linyin Beast was critically injured, the Elemental Soul Pet was withdrawn, and the other sub-pets, even if summoned, could hardly escape the fate of being killed instantly!

“Ripppppppppp!”

Four Beast-type Leaders simultaneously extended their sharp claws, ferociously slashing across Li Zhan’s Spotted Demon Tiger!

The Spotted Demon Tiger was already riddled with scars, and the current attack was even more deadly. In the end, it fell gruesomely into a pool of blood.

The breaking of the soul contract turned Li Zhan’s face even paler!

His eyes turning blood-red as he watched his Spotted Demon Tiger being torn to unrecognizable shreds…

“It would have been better if you had simply surrendered. We don’t kill people. We would just hand you over to the game organizers. Why would you waste a soul pet’s life like this?” The smiling, treacherously sanctimonious Eighth Level Prisoner said.

Indeed, if Li Zhan had surrendered, if he had called back all his soul pets, not only would he not have suffered any loss, there might even be a chance that he wouldn’t die.

However, to stand by and watch as Ting Lan fell into danger, as a Soul Pet Trainer who genuinely possesses the character of a Soul Hall, Li Zhan couldn’t do that!

For many Soul Pet Trainers, there are things more important than their lives that need to be defended – one of those is the mission of Soul Hall.

Li Zhan had been acquainted with Ting Lan since childhood. Due to their status, Li Zhan had always served as Ting Lan’s guard, quietly protecting the daughter of the elder of Mingxian Hall – it was his mission as a member of the Soul Hall!

If he were to push Ting Lan into danger for his own selfish reasons, he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life!

“Miss Tinglan…you still have a Winged type Soul Pet, right?” said Li Zhan, clenching his fists and talking in a somewhat weak voice.

“Yes…but we must…we must repel them once. Only then can my Winged type Soul Pet possibly fly.” Ting Lan was recalling her restricted Elemental Soul Pet in order to prepare it for summoning the Winged type Soul Pet.

“I…I will use a Light attribute skill. The moment the skill is released, you should recite the spell to summon your Winged type Soul Pet. I will do everything I can to hold them back, then you drive the Winged Soul Pet to keep flying upwards…” Li Zhan said to Ting Lan through soul sense.

“What about you?” Ting Lan asked anxiously.

“I will summon my Wind Soul Pet to throw me up… You must remember to keep flying upwards. If you hesitate even a little bit, your soul pet will be pulled down.” Li Zhan said earnestly.

“But your Wind Soul Pet…” Ting Lan felt a twinge in her heart as she said in a low voice.

“No more talking!” Li Zhan interrupted Ting Lan, and recited a spell in his soul-damaged state.

Once the soul is damaged, it becomes extremely difficult to cast a soul skill. However, Li Zhan forcibly finished the Light attribute Skill incantation in a situation where his soul wound was continuously opening!!

Searing Light!

Instantly, dazzling and blinding golden light shot in all directions!!

This light was nearly impossible to resist – it instantaneously seared the prisoners’ and soul pets’ eyes, even completely sealing their recognition ability!

At this moment, Ting Lan couldn’t afford to hesitate at all and immediately recited a spell to summon her Winged type Soul Pet.

She quickly jumped onto her Winged Soul Pet, purposely glancing at Li Zhan, who was radiating a blinding light.

“Fly quickly!! You must fly to a height they can’t reach!!!” Li Zhan roared, the light radiating from his body growing even more intense, not giving the prisoner’s soul pets any chance to lock onto Ting Lan.

Ting Lan immediately drives her Winged Soul Pet to fly vertically up the cliff…

…

Not far away, golden light shone on Chu Mu’s and Ye Qingzi’s faces. They quickly closed their eyes to prevent them from being seared.

“They’re over there.” Chu Mu took the lead, letting the Night Thunder Dream Beast unfold Extreme Shadow, once more raising its speed.

Black streamline swept across the slope of the mountain path. Chu Mu, clad in black, merged with the black Night Thunder Dream Beast, exuding a rich dark color, yet also incredibly eerie.

…

Ting Lan had already flown to a height of a hundred meters. This height could prevent many soul pets’ attacks.

However, when she reached this height, Ting Lan’s body violently shook, as she suddenly remembered – Li Zhan doesn’t have a Wind Soul Pet at all!!

Without a Wind Soul Pet, Li Zhan, whose soul is damaged, simply couldn’t instantly leap to this height!
