Chapter 282: Chapter 161: Courageous Sting’s Heart

Translator: 549690339

“Resentment Condensation is a skill belonging to Soul Pets from another world, and it seems to be unique to your White Nightmare Demon, Chu Mu. It’s almost impossible for your MO Ye to grasp such a skill,” said Elder Li.

“However, there are several skills similar to Resentment Condensation. For instance, the Insect-type ‘Courageous Sting’s Heart’; it is a skill that gradually increases strength during combat,” Elder Li continued.

“Tell me more,” Chu Mu immediately asked.

“Courageous Sting’s Heart is an advanced insect-type skill. The vitality of Insect-type soul pets is incredibly robust, but their combat power is inferior to that of the Beast-type Soul Pets. They often tend to be defeated at the beginning of the battle. If an insect-type soul pet has the Courageous Sting’s Heart, after being hit, its combat power will not decrease. Instead, it will increase, and for some powerful insect-type soul pets equipped with Courageous Sting’s Heart, their combat power may increase by an entire level when they continue to fight,” explained Elder Li.

Chu Mu’s eyes lit up. The skill Courageous Sting’s Heart would be immensely valuable to Zhan Ye. After all, the combat power of the level 5 Zhan Ye was weaker than many enhanced level 4 commanders. If he faced a genuinely strong opponent, he wouldn’t be able to leverage Zhan Ye’s real advantages without strong abilities.

“So, how can I obtain this Courageous Sting’s Heart?” Chu Mu asked.

“We already have the main ingredient- the Stinging Heart. You should be able to gather the rest,” said Elder Li. “Firstly, insect blood is essential. A large amount of insect blood is needed to bathe and bless the Stinging Heart. Since this is the Stinging Heart of a Sky Demon Worm, it would be best to use the blood of the Sky Demon Worm for this blessing,” he added.

“How much is needed?” asked Chu Mu.

“Around ten Compressed Blood Bottles, I guess,” replied Elder Li.

“Ten Compressed Blood Bottles?”

“Yeah, that should do it. You can consult that beauty with the long legs about the exact amount. It won’t be much,” Elder Li added.

As soon as Elder Li mentioned the ‘beauty with long legs,’ Chu Mu turned his gaze to the pair of well-toned, long legs of Ye Qingzi. His gaze lingered for a moment before finally returning to her face, which was focussed on mixing the Ice Soul Grass.

“Ye… oh, Qingzi, how many Sky Demon Worms’ blood volume is in ten Compressed Blood Bottles?” Chu Mu asked.

Yi Qingzi turned to him, and after giving it some thought, she said, “To refine, it would take at least the blood of a thousand Level 6, or above, Commander

Level Sky Demon Worms. Why do you ask?”

“…” Chu Mu was speechless and gave Elder Li a stern look.

A thousand Level 6 or above Sky Demon Worms to get that much blood- and he called it ‘not much’? Chu Mu, even in his half-demon state, had managed to kill a thousand Sky Demon Worms with significantly lower levels and ranks, using his most potent nine-level Sky Flame Gift. The three Compressed Blood Bottles required blood from a thousand Level 6 or above Sky Demon Worms. This was enough to construct a blood pool!

“Even the blood of lower-level Sky Demon Worms can be used, but that might yield lesser Compressed Blood,” Ye Qingzi added.

Ye Qingzi looked at the weird master-servant duo quizzically and asked, “What’s going on? Can the Sky Demon Worms’ blood heal your high-temperature soul?”

“Yes, I’ve got a Stinging Heart. To merge it into a Courageous Sting’s Heart, these blood baths are necessary,” Chu Mu explained.

“Oh, I can help with the blood refinement, but you have to figure out the source of the blood,” said Ye Qingzi.

“That won’t be an issue,” said Chu Mu, nodding his head. The Sky Demon

Worms were one of the largest races amongst the insects—enough for him to battle.

“The Ice Soul Grass might be a bit challenging for me to concoct right now since I ran out of materials. Your soul’s high temperature won’t damage your soul, will it?” inquired Ye Qingzi.

When Ye Qingzi had tended to Chu Mu during his unconscious state, she had noticed the high temperature of his soul and started cooling it down.

However, the high temperature of Chu Mu’s soul was strangely resistant to any ice or water type healing. It was not until Elder Li intervened and informed her about how to bring down Chu Mu’s temperature that she made some progress.

That being said, Chu Mu’s soul temperature only receded slightly and was far from returning to normal. She was worried that under such conditions, Chu Mu wouldn’t be able to execute any Soul Skills, and his Soul Pets could be potentially harmed due to soul burn.

“It’s an old wound, nothing of great concern,” replied Chu Mu.

Chu Mu’s time in the half-demon state wasn’t too lengthy this time, and the side effects were nowhere near as severe as the last. Ye Qingzi’s timely intervention helped control the temperature.

Of course, Chu Mu was aware that transforming into a half-demon this time had inflicted more damage to his soul. What initially would have taken two years to result in a frightening case of demonic possession was now likely to occur half a year sooner due to the latest transformation. He had to find another spiritual object like the Cold Spring Pool to slightly lower his soul’s temperature; otherwise, the next half-demon transformation could cause his soul to collapse completely.

The Ice Soul Grass could just help Chu Mu manage his high soul temperature for now. It probably should be able to help him return to the state prior to his half-demon transformation. “How long was I out?” Chu Mu asked.

“It’s been five days.” Ye Qingzi replied.

“Is the Zhehuang still present?” Chu Mu remembered Chu Ke mentioning that the Zhehuang lasted about three to five days, but it’s already been five days and it seemed that everyone was still hiding inside the Stone Palace.

“This time, the Zhehuang appears to be somewhat unusual.” Ye Qingzi said. As she said this, a hint of concern flashed in her eyes…

“What’s wrong?” Chu Mu asked, looking at Ye Qingzi.

“My brother went to the Ten Thousand Broken Sting Valley. That’s where these demon worms are surging from. I don’t know if he’ll be safe. I’m a bit worried about him.” Ye Qingzi said.

Upon hearing this, Chu Mu remembered that Ye Wansheng had unfortunately gone to the Ten Thousand Broken Sting Valley just before the Zhehuang broke out.

If it’s indeed a Zhehuang outbreak, then it means that the Ten Thousand Broken Sting Valley is in an incredibly active stage and should be the first to be affected. Ye Wansheng’s journey there might be filled with danger.

“They say this Zhehuang might last nearly half a month, and the entire northern region of Wogu Domain will be affected…” Ye Qingzi said, her expression gloomy.

“That long?” Chu Mu exclaimed in surprise.

“Young Master, it’s quite normal. These recent years, the Ten Thousand Broken Sting Valley has always been in an extremely active stage… From my observation, half a month is already them being restrained. If it was earlier, without at least a hundred days, these creatures would never retreat back to their nests.” Fox Elder explained.

“I can’t wait that long. After seven days, the number of demon worms here will significantly decrease. I’m thinking…” said Ye Qingzi, her eyebrows knitted in concern. Her gaze landed on Chu Mu, as though attempting to say something but hesitating.

Chu Mu was not usually oblivious, so he reassured her: “We can leave through the back door of the Great Hall. Once my Soul Power has recovered, I’ll accompany you to find your brother.”

Ye Qingzi planned to leave this place and head north to search for her brother after seven days. Staying in the Stone Palace made her anxious for her brother’s safety. However, traveling alone in an area still swarming with demon worms was extremely dangerous. She hoped to leave with Chu Mu but was also worried about the risks Chu Mu might face.

But at Chu Mu’s words, Ye Qingzi’s spirit revived, and a grateful smile emerged on her face.

Given the several aid she provided, Chu Mu wouldn’t be heartless and leave her alone. Moreover, he was planning to collect demon worm blood anyway. Now was the best time to kill them since their numbers were decreasing and the coverage area was scattered.

“Then you should rest well for now. I’ll ask around if anyone has Ice Element medicinal herbs and see if I can mediate the medicine.” Ye Qingzi told Chu Mu. Chu Mu nodded, lay back on the bed, watching Ye Qingzi’s attractive figure retreat.

“Young Master, damn, she’s a catch! Look at her legs and that ass, she’s a beauty! If she fancied herself up a bit, wore princess-like attire, she would definitely be the goddess of seduction, I assure you of my judgment. When it comes to women, seize the opportunity before you miss it!” The Fox Elder, out of nowhere, jumped to Chu Mu’s side and started persuading Chu Mu in his rogue voice.

“You’d better not let her hear you.” Chu Mu said.

“Hehe, Young Master, when you come across a good girl, take the opportunity. You look after her so well, without her, at least you would’ve needed a month to wake up. I see this girl has solid skills and is a high-level Spirit Master, it would save a fortune to take her…” Fox Elder continued to urge.

“Alright, I’ve heard enough from you.” Chu Mu, tired of the Fox Elder’s nonsense, turned and began to meditatively recuperate.

The Fox Elder kept rambling, seemed to be thoroughly enjoying himself after so long without a good talk, and analysed Ye Qingzi from head to toe.

A half-human, half-pet old critter who commented endlessly on a woman’s face, hair, breasts, waist, ass, legs – it was freakingly weird listening to him. When Chu Mu noticed the old creature had begun drooling, he was speechless, picked up the babbling Fox Elder, and threw him outside the door, to avoid disturbing his meditation.

“What? You’re leaving? You must be joking. The Zhehuang is going to last nearly half a month and it’s only been seven days. Isn’t it the same as walking towards death?” Inside the hall of the Stone Palace, Chu Ke looked at Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi in surprise.

Chu Ke had no idea what those two were thinking. The Zhehuang was not a battle between the young generations a slight carelessness could cost them their lives and they might end up gnawed to bones. But Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi still wanted to go out!

“Chu Mu, if you really want to leave, why not wait until the Zhehuang is over? It’s very safe here, if you go out like this and something happens again…” Chu

Qian, who was listening to Chu Mu’s departure, had her eyes reddening again.

“Ye Wansheng might be trapped in the Ten Thousand Broken Sting Valley. If we don’t go to save him, he’ll be in grave danger. Don’t worry, we won’t be in any danger.” Chu Mu comforted Chu Qian, flashing a smile.

“But the two of you…” Chu Qian, as an older sister, was naturally worried.
