A middle aged man wearing a grey windbreaker faced the oncoming sand blowing in his face as he stepped into Gangluo City .
Gangluo City had already lost the bustling atmosphere of the past . The main street was abnormally desolate, obviously because of the disaster’s arrival which had caused many people with even a bit of money to flee north . Others who had the ability simply just moved to other kingdoms . Until this disaster was completely eradicated, they wouldn’t return .
The windbreaker man intentionally stopped when he reached the city wall . Looking at the slightly old city wall, he hesitated a while before finally stepping in .
“My Lord, look, Gangluo City is completely unharmed . The disaster hasn’t spread here . ” a female servant following the man spoke .
The man didn’t say anything, and continued to walk down the main street .
His pace was very slow, and he would constantly stop . He was like an old vagrant visiting his old home again; a trip down memory lane .
The petite young female servant was an interesting contrast to this old man . As they walked, she didn’t stop chattering .
The old man walked until finally he reached the Chu Family’s old residence . He paused for a long time here, but didn’t dare step in .
“My lord, my lord, did you take the wrong route?” asked the lively young female servant .
“No . ” The man shook his head . He looked up at the tablet atop the residence’s entrance .
“Qin Residence?” the man’s brows immediately creased .
“Yes, this place is the Qin Residence . Shouldn’t it be the Chu Residence?” said the young female servant .
As she spoke, she blinked her eyes, and looked at the complicated yet confused expression on the man’s face . Promptly, she jogged into the Qin Residence .
Although the young woman was a female servant, her clothing was in no way inferior to that of a noble family’s eldest young lady . Qin Family’s people were very courteous to her .
Quickly, the young female servant returned from the Qin Family after inquiring about something .
“My lord, the Qin Family’s people said that the Chu Family migrated away many years ago . They aren’t sure where they moved to . ” said the young female servant .
“My lord, you truly are something . It was them who rejected you and pushed you out of their family . Now they have trouble and you could have just sat to the side and watched . Why did you have to come back here? If the family is devoured by the disaster, they’ll also get devoured . ” the young female servant’s words didn’t stop .
The old man coldly glanced at the young female servant . The young female servant knew she spoke too much, and came to a hasty stop before charmingly sticking out her tongue .
“Let’s go to Luo Region Sect first . ” as he spoke, the man didn’t bicker with the young woman .
The man chanted an incantation, beginning to summon a soul pet .
The incantation quickly finished and a pure white cloud feathered wing type soul pet appeared - an Ice Cloud Crane .
Ice Cloud Crane: Demon Beast Kingdom - Wing Type - Ice Cloud Crane Species - monarch rank .
This soul pet’s appearance was like a feathered snow white crane . Its smoothly unfurled wings carried a light blue cloud marks that slightly moved along with the wind . It had two pairs of long pure white feathery tails that danced about . It gave off a light blue light, but looked both a little proud and arrogant .
Solely from its pure aura, this soul pet looked like a very spiritual creature; moreover, its fighting strength rank definitely wasn’t low .
The man and young female servant agilely jumped onto it . The Ice Cloud Crane gave slight flaps of its wings and began to ascend into the sky .
This attracted the attention of the people around them . The experts from the Qin Residence all lost color in their faces, because they were unable to sense the rank of this wing type soul pet . Compared to this graceful yet extremely fast wing type soul pet, their soul pets simply weren’t on the same level .
……
Barbarian Mountain Range .
Old Li adeptly grabbed fifteen spirit crystals . Excavating spirits required high skill because if a small mistake was made, the spirit would be destroyed . One spirit was as large as a speck, so a scratch would ruin several spirits .
After excavating the spirits, Old Li was full of smiles . He muttered: “It’s nearly been a hundred years since I’ve done something like this . My hands are much slower . ”
Taking the largest spirit into his hand, Old Li stroked a beard whisker while placing the spirit in front of him . He stared at it like he was a merchant appraising some treasure, and from time to time would let out a satisfied smile .
“Good, thank goodness the quality wasn’t deteriorated or I would’ve damaged a few hundred spirits . This batch of 7800 spirits was more than I expected . ” Old Li continued to speak .
However, he suddenly discovered that Chu and the small fox had disappeared . Thus, he put away the spirit and broke into a stride to the place Chu Mu had just spoken to him from .
“Huh, there’s still a cave here… Holy, what rich spirit energy!!” Old Li gave a cry of exclamation .
After coming back to his senses, Old Li broke into a run towards the cave .
“Waahooo!!!”
In the cave, Old Li’s excitement reverberated around . Clearly, this half old man was shocked by the inside!
“We struck it rich!! We struck it rich!! We struck it rich big time!!” Old Li was like a midget businessman who, after seeing the dozens of spirit crystals on the cave wall, used some strange movement ability to bounce around from spirit crystal to spirit crystal . It was as if he was leaping onto and over walls like he was running on the ground!
Chu Mu also had a big smile . Although he wasn’t able to estimate the amount of spirits, the inside was clearly much more than the outside .
“As I said, even a third rank tribe dispatched troops to invade human territory . How can there only be 7800 spirits in the spirit source…” when Old Li estimated the amount of spirits, he began to mutter to himself .
This old fellow was always so contradictory . Just now, he had said that 7800 spirits was a lot, something that a third rank tribe would covet .
Old Li did the gathering of the spirits, while Chu Mu just sat there and slowly breathed in the life force energy from the crystals .
Of course, before Old Li came, Chu Mu had counted the pieces . Otherwise, this old fellow may try to embezzle a few . Chu Mu understood this fellow’s greed too well .
“Old Li, approximately how many are here?” asked Chu Mu .
“I still haven’t counted… how did young master find this place? Ai… it’s been too long since I’ve used that technique . I nearly missed such a huge spirit source…” said Old Li .
“Technique? What technique of yours?” Chu Mu asked, confused .
Chu Mu remembered that Old Li’s attacking power was near zero . However, his fleeing ability was near infinite . Whether an emperor rank soul pet could even capture Old Li was something Chu Mu had to think about . As for Old Li’s techniques, Chu Mu felt that they were all fleeing abilities .
“Ah, nothing . Young master, there are about 20 thousand spirits here . Including the ones outside, there are about 30 thousand . This is the equivalent price of three single attributed pseudo emperors . Young master truly struck it rich this time!!” said Old Li .
“Thirty Thousand!!” a pleased expression arose on Chu Mu’s face .
Chu Mu was already very satisfied with 20,000 spirits to strengthen the White Nightmare!
He never expected the spirit source to provide an additional 10,000 spirits . This was the equivalent of a pseudo emperor!
Chu Mu presently had a huge headache due to his lack of spirits . Chu Mu’s secondary pets were alright since they didn’t have abnormal attributes . However, his main pets were pretty much bottomless pits!
For example, Zhan Ye’s attributes were bug and beast type . Yet, its beast type attribute was so weak it couldn’t even be considered a secondary attribute . It had only become a main attribute through Chu Mu spending a huge amount of resources to strengthen it .
Normally speaking, a Warbeast Mo Ye should have had a beast type main attribute and bug type secondary attribute .
However, Zhan Ye’s attributes were the opposite . Its bug type attribute was not only its main attribute, but was also an abnormal attribute . It was even more abnormal than genuine bug type attributes .
As for the beast type, it was innately weaker than a secondary attribute .
Chu Mu had begun training Zhan Ye from the third phase before correcting its beast type attribute into a main attribute . Thus, Zhan Ye now had two main attributes .
Of course, its bug type attribute was still innately abnormal . If Chu Mu had only strengthened its bug type attribute, perhaps only a few thousand spirits would have been enough to strengthen it to the emperor rank .
After all, the higher an attribute talent was, the greater the chance of strengthening success . Moreover, it even had a chance of successfully strengthening itself purely through fighting .
Self-strengthening, however, required a long period of time and Chu Mu couldn’t wait this long . Therefore, Zhan Ye maintained its dual attribute strengthening to the emperor rank, meaning the amount of resources required quadrupled to 40 thousand spirits .
Strengthening Zhan Ye’s bug type to the emperor rank would only require a few thousand spirits, but the beast attribute required over thirty thousand . This was the huge discrepancy between talents .
Indeed, talent was the decisive factor for resource multiplication .
Numerous soul pet trainers, when they captured their first group of soul pets, would principally look at species rank to determine this number .
However, when they raised their second generation of soul pets, they could no longer just look at species rank, but also the soul pet’s attribute talent . If its attribute talent was low, the amount of resources required to strengthen it was not small .
However, the majority of soul pets’ attributes were at average levels . Even if they had slightly higher or lower talents in an attribute, the amount of less or extra money spent on them would be between 0 . 8 times to 1 . 2 times . It was extremely rare to exceed this range…
Now leaving aside the topic of attribute talent for now, the Little Hidden Dragon was another problem .
The Little Hidden Dragon needed six times the amount of resources . This gave Chu Mu a huge headache . On the other hand, the Ice Air Fairy needed 1 times the resources, the Ghost King 2 times and the Night Thunder Dream Beast 2 times to all reach the emperor rank . This was a huge amount .
It was fortunate that Mo Xie was extremely determined and had mutated to the low class emperor rank by herself .
Although Old Li classified Mo Xie’s fire attribute among her secondary attributes, Chu Mu was clear that it should be a part of her three main attributes in order for her to truly conform to a Seven Sins Fox Corrupted Flame Monarch .
A single attributed soul pet required one times the strengthening resources .
A single main attribute and single secondary attribute soul pet required 1 . 5 to 2 times the resources . However, to transform the secondary attribute to a main attribute, this required 5 times the resources and needed to start from a low phase and stage .
Dual main talented attributes required three times the resources and Chu Mu had only seen a soul pet like this in Ye Qingzi’s Ice Fire Fairy .
The Seven Sins Fox Corrupted Infernal Monarch’s true bloodline was complicated . However, Chu Mu was certain that if there were more attributes involved, the more amount of money would have to be spent . If there really were three main attributes, strengthening Mo Xie by a single class would require a terrifying amount of nearly 10 times the resources .
Therefore, with such a huge group of soul pets that burned money, being able to find an additional 10 thousand spirits was only an extra water droplet; nonetheless, it was still capable of strengthening an additional emperor and another asset for him to make even more money with!!
