Supreme Tamer C.579 - 450: Devil’s Guardian, No One is Spared (3)

Chapter 579: Chapter 450: Devil’s Guardian, No One is Spared (3)

Everyone in the field knew that Soul Hall Chu Chen had always been challenging the highest honor in every realm. In the guard realm challenge, he was definitely aiming for the highest honor. So when they realized that the rules could not be changed, everyone was downhearted, and no one had any enthusiasm for the challenge.

“You guys, don’t be like wilted eggplants. He alone can’t deal with so many of us. Although it’s not a multi vs. one, his combat power cannot be infinite. After his soul pets become physically exhausted, he will have to let us pass,” someone said.

“That’s… true. I hope I will be drawn later in the sequence,” someone else said.

However, soon there were many screams ringing out!

These screams were naturally from those who had drawn earlier numbers. Evidently, this group of people would be the first “corpses” to pave the way in the Netherworld Gate.

Chu Mu saw the challenge begin from the city tower, so he lept from the tower to the ground and walked towards the vast, empty city outskirts.

It was now noon, with abundant sunlight at the city walls, giving people a warm feeling. However, as Chu Mu approached the Netherworld Gate, he gradually felt a chill sweeping over his cheeks.

This feeling was like walking from a hot place towards a desolate, decayed mansion. The closer you got, the colder it would feel.

It was unknown whether it was due to the fog of Mirror Sword Mountain or the mountain itself had some kind of light-absorbing ability. When walking into this place, the heat of the sun was completely drained away. The intense sunlight gradually underwent subtle color changes, casting shadows on the ground that were indistinguishable from light.

Arriving at the foot of Mirror Sword Mountain, Chu Mu looked up for a moment before leaping and climbing along the stalactites that stretched between the two mountain peaks.

Soon, Chu Mu climbed to a height of several hundred meters on these stalactites and looked down at the dense crowd of The World Decree contestants on the South City walls.

“The challenge guardian has signaled, first challenge contestant, He Qing,” the woman known as Miss Shan spoke with Soul Sense to the thousands of people.

People looked around, wanting to see which contestant was so unlucky as to draw first.

“He Qing!” Miss Shan repeated once more.

“I’m here.” A lazy voice came out.

The voice came from a corner. Soon, everyone saw a somewhat relaxed young man leaning against the wall. With a bored expression, he seemed to not care about the matter people considered misfortune.

“He Qing, I feel like I’ve heard that name somewhere before…” Several murmurs arose from the crowd, everyone trying to recall this young man’s identity.

“He’s the Beast Fighting Youth from Soul Pet Palace. He’s won several highly authoritative beast fighting competitions, and many people who have watched his matches still don’t know his true strength!”

“So it’s him! If there are a few more like He Qing, there might be hope for us to pass the challenge in the end!”

He Qing’s mouth corners raised, and he slowly walked through the crowd. His eyes intentionally swept over the beautiful woman in the tower, and he asked lazily, “I can choose him using double control, right?”

“You can,” Miss Shan nodded and informed Chu Mu of He Qing’s choice using Soul Sense.

He Qing is a third-tier member who assumedly has some strength, or else people wouldn’t have recognized him whenever they heard his name.

“He Qing’s strength is extraordinary. Even if Chu Chen might not want to let his soul pets’ fighting strength be consumed by such a third-tier power. He might let us pass quickly.”

Guardians have the right to choose between passing and fighting. Generally, conservative first challenge guardians would pass the second and first-tier contestants. Otherwise, the guardian’s strength would be consumed by those powerful contestants, making it difficult to stop others.

At the high point of the stalactites between the two peaks, Chu Mu in white clothing stood calmly, his gaze fixed on the third-tier contestant named He Qing and quietly waiting for him to step under the Netherworld Gate.

Chu Mu didn’t let He Qing jump directly to the top of Mirror Sword Mountain. Instead, when he approached it, Chu Mu slowly chanted a spell…

A strange wind force swirled around Chu Mu’s body, like a black ribbon flowing softly with Chu Mu. Eventually, in front of him, the wind force slowly formed a whirlwind.

Within the black whirlwind, the petite body of the Wind-binding Spirit slowly appeared. The surrounding cold wind had been completely controlled by the Wind-binding Spirit, changing the flow direction with her intention, bringing a much more comfortable feeling to the body.

After flying around Chu Mu a few times, the Wind-binding Spirit gracefully landed on Chu Mu’s shoulder, letting out a clear and spiritual sound. It sounded like a spoiled child.

“Today, you can show off as much as you want,” Chu Mu raised his mouth corners and stared down at the tiny challenger on the ground from hundreds of meters above.

“Zzzzzz~~~~~~~~~~” The Wind-binding Spirit hadn’t fought in a while. Having received Chu Mu’s command, it quickly flew down along the stalactites that stretched across the two mountain ranges.

…

He Qing naturally knew that Chu Chen of Soul Hall’s strength was among the strongest in the second-tier, so to avoid any accidents in the upcoming realm-crossing, he chose the lowest difficulty level conservatively.

He knew that he was no match for Chu Chen of Soul Hall, but he could be sure that as long as the latter’s two soul pets fought against his four soul pets, Chu Chen would realize that He Qing was not an easy opponent, and this Guardian would not fight him to the death and let him pass.

Mirror Sword Mountain’s height was astonishing, with strange yin air floating between the two mountains, so He Qing couldn’t see what soul pet Mu had summoned. For safety’s sake, He Qing didn’t hesitate to summon his own four strongest main pets.

“Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo~~~~~~~~~~”

As He Qing finished his summoning, he suddenly felt a very violent wind force around him. This wind force seemed to lift everything around him and create an immense pressure!

“A wind soul pet? I don’t remember hearing that Soul Hall Chu Chen has a wind soul pet, this should be his sub pet. If you underestimate me, you, the Guardian, will also suffer.” He Qing grinned and began to direct his soul pets to use defense skills.

“Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!!!!!!!!!”

The gale grew stronger, and its force was so cold that it was like a giant sickle, leaving deep marks on the vast open ground under the Netherworld Gate in a frenzy!!

Despite the gloomy wind in the Netherworld Gate, He Qing still couldn’t see Mu’s summoned soul pet, but he could feel the extraordinariness of this wind force. His expression gradually changed from confident laziness to serious!!

Suddenly, countless black Chaos Winds appeared in front of He Qing, forming numerous sickles of death, each of the Chaos Wind Scythes more than twenty meters long!!

They stirred up a wave of black wind like a tide in mid-air, terrifyingly rolling and spinning towards He Qing and his four soul pets!!

“This… this is a ninth-level wind element skill!” As the black wind scythes attacked overwhelmingly, He Qing’s face turned pale and he stood there in shock!

Ninth-level Wind Skill!! He Qing’s soul pets were all eighth-rank Lords; not many of them could really resist a ninth-level wind skill. The area of damage from this skill was vast, and although his four soul pets had already dispersed a bit in their positions, they were all engulfed within the attack range!

“Shua!!! Shua!!!!!! Shua!!!!!!!! Shua!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

As the Chaos Wind Scythes swept by, they immediately left a series of shocking scars on the earth, as if a devil hidden in the sweeping Chaos Winds was tearing everything apart with its sharp claws!!

He Qing’s soul pets had already cast their defensive skills, but resisting a ninth-level wind skill wasn’t easy. After the skill swept by, all four of them were knocked down, black sickles grazing their bodies, leaving deep gashes and spraying blood!!

From thousands of meters away on the city walls, people looked at the countless black wind scythes forming a devil’s whirl, watched the astonishing scars on the vast flat earth, and the murmuring crowd suddenly quieted down. Everyone’s eyes widened as they stared at the terrifying wind skill!

…

“Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo~~~~~~~~~~~”

The remnant power of the black Chaos Wind blew from afar, sweeping past everyone’s side, sending chills down their spines!

With the black energy dispersed, the vast ground in front of the Netherworld Gate had been severely damaged.

Not far away, He Qing and his four injured soul pets lay on the vast, open ground!!

He Qing wailed, struggling, and his four soul pets were also lying in pools of blood. Although they were still alive, none of them could stand up again!

Among the thousands of people gathered, no one had even prepared to watch the battle when it ended with a single horrifying skill!

No one would have thought that it would end like this!

Both being third-tier members, He Qing and Chu Mu were not much different in age. The former had summoned all four of his soul pets and had even prepared for defense, while the latter had only summoned one soul pet. Moreover, this soul pet had only used one wind element skill, which nearly killed the opponent’s four soul pets. The difference in strength was terrifying!!

Before, Chu Mu’s realm crossings had only been beast fighting or hunting, and even his only challenge had ended inconspicuously. Everyone knew that he was a third-tier abnormal youth, but no one had thought that he would be so much stronger than the so-called experts in the third-tier. They were not on the same level at all!!
