Chapter 341: Chapter 218: Surpass, Li City Challenge Battle

Chu Mu continuously retreated, reciting the incantation to summon the Ice-Feathered Spirit in front of him.
As the ice cold condensed, the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s snowy figure emerged from the icy patterns. When the Hundred-Tendril Tree Demon’s countless tendrils flew toward him, the Ice-Feathered Spirit completed the spell in an instant, forming several incredibly sturdy ice walls, one after another up to five continuous ice walls!
“Bang!!! Bang!!!! Bang!!!!!”
All the steel cable-like tendrils struck the ice walls fiercely. The three Seventh Level defensive ice walls were immediately shattered into powder, turning into countless ice crystals scattered on the ground.
Seeing the scene, Chu Mu continued to recite the incantation, summoning the Demon Tree Warrior in front of him.
Upon the Demon Tree Warrior’s appearance, the roots quickly intertwined, rapidly forming a root net that strengthened the defense of the remaining two ice walls.
However, even with the fortification from the Demon Tree Warrior’s root defense, the last two ice walls still couldn’t resist the attack of the countless tendrils, and it wasn’t long before all the tendrils completely broke through the defenses of the Ice-Feathered Spirit and the Demon Tree Warrior…
Seeing the endless tendrils flying towards him, Chu Mu’s expression became serious. He immediately ordered the Ice-Feathered Spirit and the Demon Tree Warrior to retreat and let the Mo Ye standing on his shoulder take action.
Mo Ye, maintaining Chu Lian’s state, jumped down from Chu Mu’s shoulder. Seeing the attacking tendrils, Mo Ye made several small leaps, aiming its claws precisely at the tendrils and slashing ferociously!!
“Whoosh!!!!!”
The Crown Flame Claw grazed the tendrils, leaving a scratch on at least a dozen tendrils. But among these tendrils, only a few were severed by Mo Ye’s Crown Flame Claw, while the others only had a shallow mark left on them!
With a late-stage Seventh Level Claw Blade, combined with the skill effect and Mo Ye’s strength, Mo Ye’s Crown Flame Claw’s tearing power was more than any ordinary creature could bear. Surprisingly, this claw could only sever a few tendrils, meaning the tenacity of these tendrils was truly extraordinary.
“This is the Water Wood Tendril. It doesn’t fear Fire Attribute damages. This Wood Type soul pet counters your little fox’s abilities. Summoning it to battle is unwise,” Fox Elder’s voice immediately came.
Indeed, as the Fox Elder said, no matter how strong Mo Ye’s evasive ability and speed are, it would be virtually impossible to dodge the Water Wood Tendril attacks from the Hundred-Tendril Tree Demon. Even if Mo Ye tried to dispel Chu Lian’s state, it would be bound by several tendrils in no time, rendering its fiery body incapable of burning through those tendrils.
Bound by the tendrils, Mo Ye was clearly enraged. A surge of boiling energy began to swell within its body, attempting to dispel Chu Lian’s state and transform into the more powerful Nine-Tailed Crown Flame Fox.
“Mo Ye, come back,” instead of letting Mo Ye dispel Chu Lian’s state, Chu Mu directly recited an incantation, summoning Mo Ye back into his Soul Pet Space.
Just as Fox Elder said, even if Mo Ye’s evasion ability was strong and its speed was fast, it would have been nearly impossible for it to dodge the Hundred-Tendril Tree Demon’s attacks. After all, the Hundred-Tendril Tree Demon’s combat power was clearly beyond peak commander level, and under the advantages of level and attributes, Mo Ye would have had a hard time defeating the Wood Type soul pet with Water Attributes without the shelter of moonlight.
The surrounding temperature suddenly dropped as Yu He’s Ice Witch Demon’s skill finally arrived. A blast of cold air swept through, almost freezing the city gate behind Chu Mu.
After summoning Mo Ye back to the Soul Pet Space, Chu Mu’s brows furrowed, as he had no idea what soul pet to summon to counter Yu He’s trio of abnormally strengthened soul pets.
Though the Ice-Feathered Spirit had Ice Crystals, and the Ice Witch Demon had Advanced Xuan Crystal, the latter was of a higher level. Both controlled Ice Attributes with comparable power.
Originally, Mo Ye’s Fire Attribute would have been a counter to Plant World soul pets. However, when encountering Plant World soul pets that didn’t fear ordinary fire, even with Mo Ye’s Beast Attribute and Demon Spirit Attribute, they would be completely restrained. This was because, under the tough and unbreakable attacks of the tendrils, Mo Ye simply couldn’t get close to the Hundred-Tendril Tree Demon.
As for the Solid Rock General at the Third Stage of Rank Seven, Chu Mu didn’t even know how to deal with it. Even if he summoned Zhan Ye, Chu Mu couldn’t guarantee that his Rank Six Zhan Ye wouldn’t be instantly killed by the terrifyingly powerful Solid Rock General.
“Retreat to the city. You are not his opponent unless you summon the White Nightmare Demon, but as a member of Soul Hall, you cannot make a soul pact with such an evil soul pet,” said Master Li to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu also realized that it would be difficult to combat Yu He without summoning the White Nightmare Demon. He immediately retreated into the city, standing beside the city gate guards without any intention of actually fighting Yu He.
Yu He saw Chu Mu retreat and a smug smile appeared on his face. He stepped forward, walking past his trio of soul pets, positioning himself twenty meters away from Chu Mu. With a gaze full of pride and mockery, he stared at Chu Mu: “Back in the Soul Hall, it was just that I didn’t want to take action. With your soul pets, you think you can hurt me?”
Chu Mu stood there looking at Yu He without engaging in any meaningless conversation, only quietly standing there, waiting for the group of Soul Hall members to come over.
“Young Master… You… Are you alright?” Lord Tang approached Chu Mu, anxiously asking.
Palace Master Tang was also cautious, knowing that after Yu He was released, he would definitely cause trouble for Chu Mu, so he sent someone to follow Yu He.
As expected, Yu He went after Chu Mu and deliberately stirred up trouble outside the city gate. When Palace Master Tang got the news, he rushed here to stop the fight.
“Who allowed you to release him?” Chu Mu looked at Palace Master Tang and asked indifferently.
“This… it wasn’t my command, but an order from an elder.” Palace Master Tang said, looking embarrassed.
“How could you just release him like that, what are the Seven Palace Masters doing?” Fox Elder immediately complained to Palace Master Tang.
“He… he isn’t released, just temporarily set free. In two months, he must go to Li City to face trial for the deaths of Yu Lang and Feng Ya. For now, Young Master is granted temporary freedom.” Palace Master Tang explained.
Chu Mu’s gaze became cold, and he glanced at Yu He, who wore a smug smile on his face. He was also secretly surprised that Yu He had such great ability to mobilize a Soul Hall elder to plead for him, allowing him to go under house arrest to Li City for trial.
“Chu Chen, whether you’re the Young Master of Soul Hall or not, I’ll never forget the slap you gave me a few days ago, and your slander against me. Today, I challenge you!!”
“Time: two months later, Place: Li city. You can refuse, but you must accept my slap and admit that you slandered me!”
As Yu He spoke, he once again approached Chu Mu, his eyes staring intently at Chu Mu.
Yu He’s behavior was obviously a show for everyone to see, demonstrating his indignation after being slandered.
Chu Mu would not easily accept challenges from others. However, the way Yu He had dealt with Ye Wansheng, Chu Mu could not stand it.
Moreover, for Chu Mu, young experts like Yu He were the targets he wanted to surpass. This time, Chu Mu genuinely wanted to have a challenging battle!
“Before you are convicted of murder by Soul Hall, I, Chu Chen, will satisfy this small wish of yours.” Chu Mu said indifferently.
“Hmm, people who want to frame others will always find ways to do so. I, Yu He, hate people like you who use despicable means to get rid of young warriors. Sooner or later, both Soul Hall and Elemental Gate will do me justice.” Yu He said with an air of righteousness. To others, it seemed that he was truly being wronged.
Chu Mu calmly watched Yu He leave, and realized that he had encountered a formidable opponent with both intelligence and strength.
Hardships, challenges, and training—if Chu Mu didn’t surpass these outstanding young experts, when would he be able to defeat people like Princess Jinrou and Lu Shanli, or truly step into the ranks of the strong?
Back when Chu Mu fought Princess Jinrou, he noticed that she didn’t use her full strength. If it weren’t for the moonlight increasing Mo Ye’s strength and allowing the White Nightmare Demon’s power to grow, Princess Jinrou could have defeated all of Chu Mu’s soul pets with just Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon and White Nightmare Demon…
Chu Mu knew there was still a significant gap between him and the real young experts. Yu He’s strength was clearly stronger than those top young experts Chu Mu encountered in the Western World. This was a test and challenge for Chu Mu, and defeating Yu He would bring him closer to the highest level of the young generation.
“Young Master, your little fox was obviously restrained by the Hundred-Tendril Tree Demon, and you can’t summon the White Nightmare Demon. Accepting his challenge so rashly isn’t very good, especially since the combat prowess of the few soul pets he summons is very strong,” said Fox Elder.
“It doesn’t matter if I lose since he won’t dare to kill me in that situation.” Chu Mu replied.
Actually, in this fight with Yu He, Chu Mu did not intend to let the White Nightmare Demon and Mo Ye participate.
Chu Mu now had his own plan. Considering that he would be dealing with Soul Hall and other forces constantly, he decided that when dealing with Soul Hall or other forces, he would appear as Chu Chen, the young master, and not summon the White Nightmare Demon during the battles. Instead, he would primarily have Mo Ye in Chu Lian’s state, Ice-Feathered Spirit, Battle Ye, and Demon Tree Warrior fight.
When he appeared as Chu Mu or when there were no other forces present, he would summon the White Nightmare Demon, Mo Ye as Nine-Tailed Crown Flame Fox, Ghost Dome King, Night Thunder Dream Beast, and others…
Though it wasn’t the best solution, having a double identity would at least make it less likely for others to discover his secret so easily.
