Chapter 544: Chapter 416: New Favorite, Wind-binding Spirit (Part 1)
Chu Mu’s spiritual connection with the Wind-binding Spirit had become very weak. During the soul ascension process, Chu Mu could only observe the changes in the Wind-binding Spirit’s appearance.
From Eighth Stage to Ninth Stage, the Wind-binding Spirit’s size hardly changed at all. However, Chu Mu could clearly feel the changes in the protective Chaos Wind surrounding it. The black Chaos Wind was like filtered, gradually revealing a mysterious silver color!
The wind itself had no color, but as the wind around the Wind-binding Spirit flowed and rotated, there would always be a faint and dazzling strange light, full of a mysterious power.
The metamorphosis process was fast, and to Chu Mu’s surprise, the Wind-binding Spirit continued to grow after completing the metamorphosis, quickly reaching the Ninth Rank Third Stage!
A Ninth Rank Third Stage Wind-binding Spirit was an intermediate monarch. As long as it did its chant, it would likely create terrifying Ninth-level wind-type skills, significantly increasing its strength!
“After the Memory Liquid washed the Wind-binding Spirit’s soul, its soul should have already begun to ascend. This ascension triggered the metamorphosis of its body. In the past three months, the Wind-binding Spirit was unable to break through the bottleneck due to emotional accumulation and fatigue. Now that it has released its emotions and received healing, it has experienced an accumulation and leap in strength, just like your Demon Tree Warrior, and has jumped directly from Eighth Rank Ninth Stage to Ninth Rank Third Stage.” Said the Fox Elder.
Chu Mu looked in amazement at the Wind-binding Spirit. If it had reached the Ninth Rank Third Stage earlier, it could have easily dealt with the Furious Wind Demons. With the Ninth Rank Third Stage, it was not far from the Tenth Rank, and once it truly reached the Tenth Rank, the Wind-binding Spirit would become even stronger!
“Tsin~~~~~~tsin~~~~~~~~~~”
After the tears flowed and its strength increased, the Wind-binding Spirit seemed to regain its life. After completing the metamorphosis and growth, it was no longer so lifeless, making a series of clear sounds and flitting around Chu Mu.
Chu Mu was still in the Strong Wind Zone, but under the control of the Wind-binding Spirit, the wind force gradually dissipated, and he no longer felt the oppressive Chaos Wind, but a gentle breeze.
“Tsin~~~~~~tsin~~~~~”
Finally, the Wind-binding Spirit stood prettily on Chu Mu’s shoulder and let out a Spirit Clan call near his ear.
Chu Mu didn’t know what the little fellow was saying, so he woke up the Ice-Feathered Spirit, who had been nourished frequently lately, and asked it to translate for him.
After listening to what the Wind-binding Spirit said, the Ice-Feathered Spirit let out a crisp cry and eagerly told Chu Mu the good news.
“It wants to stick with us?” Chu Mu initially didn’t react but subconsciously asked.
Suddenly, Chu Mu realized that the Wind-binding Spirit was actively asking him to sign a soul contract!
“You want to form a soul contract with me?” Chu Mu asked again deliberately to make sure it was true.
When the Wind-binding Spirit reached the Eighth Rank, advanced stage, its mentality had become very stubborn. To successfully form a soul contract at the Ninth Rank was even more unlikely. Chu Mu’s hope had not been very high; he had not expected that the Wind-binding Spirit would actually want to form a soul contract with him after its strength had metamorphosed into the Ninth Rank!
“Zhi~~~~~” The Wind-binding Spirit nodded. Its unique wind eyes were clearer than ever, conveying the sincerity in its heart.
A surge of ecstasy filled Chu Mu’s heart. The Wind-binding Spirit had its own soul, and as long as it was willing to form a soul contract with Chu Mu and had a deeply ingrained reason to become stronger, such a Soul Pet was exactly what Chu Mu wanted!
The Wind-binding Spirit’s strength had now reached the Ninth Rank, Third Stage – the Intermediate Monarch level. Its combat power was even stronger than Shen Yicheng’s Blood Fury Abyss Beast that Chu Mu had killed previously!
Those in the Second-tier who were qualified to compete for ultimate glory had to have at least one Ninth Rank Intermediate Monarch. Once Chu Mu signed a soul contract with the Mature Wind-binding Spirit, it would be equivalent to Chu Mu entering the ranks of the Second-tier strong fighters!!
A year ago, Chu Mu hadn’t even been qualified to enter the Second-tier, and half a year ago, he had only just managed to step into this league. With the addition of the Wind-binding Spirit, Chu Mu had joined the ranks of Second-tier contestants like Ting Lan, Shen Yicheng, Lu Shanli, Wang Xu, and many others. Chu Mu should have been classified into the Third-tier due to his age, but now he was more than capable of competing with these Second-tier powerhouses!!
Moreover, Chu Mu’s strength was far from being limited to that. Mo Ye had a great chance of elevating to a Ninth Rank – Intermediate Monarch, which would mean Chu Mu would participate in the World Decree with two Ninth Rank – Intermediate Monarchs; this lineup would be enough to shake the whole field!
“Woo woo woo~~~~~~~”
Little Mo Xie in Chu Lian’s state lay on Chu Mu’s left shoulder, chirping with joy as if welcoming the new member.
Standing behind Chu Mu, the White Demon let out a sly laugh, as if prepared to have a new victim to torment.
However, once the Wind-binding Spirit joined, it would immediately become Chu Mu’s strongest Soul Pet. If the White Demon hadn’t upgraded to the Ninth Rank or been strengthened to a High-Level Monarch, it would surely be teased by the Wind-binding Spirit.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast didn’t offer any opinion and just looked at the Wind-binding Spirit coolly.
“Young Master, this Wind-binding Spirit has already controlled the nascent form of the fourth Power Crystal, the Destruction Wind Power Crystal, which is quite terrifying, much like Glazed Glass Ice. If it can fully control the Destruction Wind Power Crystal, the Wind-binding Spirit’s Combat Power Level should be raised to High-Level Monarch. There is at least a two-level difference between a High-Level Monarch and an Intermediate Monarch. If the Wind-binding Spirit can control the Destruction Wind Power Crystal by the World Decree, the chance for the second-tier Young Master to achieve glory is very likely. Moreover, they can also ruthlessly trample those arrogant forces of the major powers,” said Fox Elder, somewhat excitedly.
Previously, Fox Elder had only hoped for Chu Mu to achieve glory in the Third-tier, as it was a wise choice for Chu Mu to remain at that level given his age.
What Fox Elder couldn’t believe was that after two almost exhausting experiences of leaping levels, Chu Mu had raised his strength from the strongest in the Third-tier to the strongest in the Second-tier. Once Mo Ye, Wind-binding Spirit, and Night Thunder Dream Beast’s strengths were increased, Chu Mu would also directly become the strongest in the Second-tier!!
Having witnessed Chu Mu’s leap in strength during this period, Fox Elder couldn’t help but admire Chu Mu’s spirit and perseverance from the bottom of his heart!
…
“You can’t sign a soul contract here, so come into my Soul Capture Ring.” Chu Mu said.
Chu Mu’s Soul Capture Ring contains a juvenile quasi-monarch soul pet. According to Soul Hall rules, only one soul pet can be taken out, so even if the Wind-binding Spirit follows Chu Mu to the Holy Territory Gate, Chu Mu must place the Wind-binding Spirit in his Soul Capture Ring in order to take it out of the Wind-binding Sanctuary.
The juvenile Wind-binding Spirit is worth about 500 million, and the Wind-binding Spirit, which is at the ninth rank, third stage, and about to be promoted to a high-level monarch, is worth several times that, tens of billions. Chu Mu couldn’t bear to give up on something worth 50 million!
“Chirp~~~~~~ Chirp~~~~~”
After Chu Mu released the juvenile quasi-monarch worth 50 million, the Wind-binding Spirit immediately chirped, as if to tell Chu Mu something.
“Chirp~~~~~~” Ning conscientiously translated for Chu Mu.
Chu Mu’s eyes brightened after listening!
“You’ve hidden all the soul cores and soul crystals of the Furious Wind Monsters you killed in the past two months?” Chu Mu asked.
“Chirp~~~~” The Wind-binding Spirit nodded.
These Furious Wind Demon soul cores and soul crystals are used by the Wind-binding Spirit as food and to increase its power. In fact, these things are not very useful to it at its current level. The Wind-binding Spirit collects them as a form of venting its anger, but it might as well be an entry gift for Chu Mu.
Chu Mu first let the Wind-binding Spirit recover in his Soul Capture Ring. After it had healed its injuries, he took it to the place where it had hidden its treasures.
…
What surprised Chu Mu was that the Wind-binding Spirit had not only collected the soul cores and soul crystals of the Furious Wind Monsters but also of all the enemies it had killed in the past. Not to mention, there were quite a few wind-elemental crystal stones and strange items.
“Young Master, the Wind-binding Spirit’s property is worth about 300 million. Not only did you get a mature Wind-binding Spirit, but it’s like getting an extra juvenile Wind-binding Spirit as well.” Fox Elder said.
Chu Mu grinned and laughed. It seems that his kindness and respect for the Wind-binding Spirit during this period have brought him great returns. He did not hesitate to put all these things into his space ring.
Although Chu Mu might spend more money on the Wind-binding Spirit in the future, this 300 million at least solved all his current problems.
And Chu Mu felt that in the future, when his strength was even stronger, he would definitely enter the unknown Destruction Wind Zone in the Wind-binding Sanctuary!
…
This time, Chu Mu truly came back with a full load!
It took about ten days for Chu Mu to finally leave the Wind Belt and enter the Windless Zone, where he found the ancient Holy Territory Gate.
Chu Mu returned to the Holy Territory Gate just in time for three months, and the Holy Guards routinely checked his Soul Capture Ring as he stepped out.
The ban on killing was lifted, and the space ring could be carried, but the Holy Guards also had to check it because the space ring could hold soul pet eggs.
Seeing Chu Mu coming out, Holy Guard Leader Zhuo Nong’s face showed a touch of surprise, “This is your third time entering here?”
“No, I entered three months ago.” Chu Mu replied.
“You stayed inside for three months?” Holy Guard Leader Zhuo Nong was stunned.
It was already quite remarkable for someone of the younger generation to stay in the Wind-binding Sanctuary for a month. The Wind Belt’s atmosphere was unbearable for ordinary people. Over time, it would inflict severe damage on one’s body and mind, and they must return for rest and recuperation.
“Yeah.” Chu Mu nodded.
…
“I remember that three months ago, you went to release a Wind-binding Spirit at the eighth rank, ninth stage. Why are you now bringing back a Wind-binding Spirit at the ninth rank and third stage?” Holy Guard Leader Zhuo Nong looked at Chu Mu speechlessly after checking the Wind-binding Spirit’s Soul Capture Ring.
“Well…” Chu Mu scratched his head awkwardly, not knowing how to explain this complicated issue.
