The Charm of Soul Pets (WN)

The Calamity Ocean Demon was once the Eternal Ocean Eastern Ocean’s most savage overlord. During its era of rule, its Dark Eastern Ocean, cruel and bloody reign forced the species in the Eastern Ocean to obediently follow its commands.

The evil lord of Eternal Ocean should have disappeared from this world 5000 years ago and should have only left behind a few terrifying historical stories for the old tortoise species to talk about.

However, this evil lord from history had appeared once again!

Within a short few months, six of the 36 great Ocean species of Eastern Ocean had been unified. They formed a very tenacious ocean faction in Eastern Ocean’s Coral City, Exile Ocean, New Moon Land and the Yellow Sea. They were also continuously expanding.

If it weren’t for the current Eastern Ocean Shark King having sensed the ambition of this evil fellow in time, it probably would have swallowed up even more great species in Eastern Ocean.

Although the Calamity Ocean Demon was the number one general under the Ancient FLood Dragon Person, its strength was at the peak of Eternal Ocean. Its influence on the Ocean species was like a fear-inducing flag and it could gather all ambitious ocean creatures together within a short period of time…

Eastern Ocean’s ruler had fought countless battles with the Calamity Ocean Demon’s army. However, for some reason, the Calamity Ocean Demon’s was endless and unkillable. There would always be some species that unfathomably decided to join their group and commit evils.

In the past, the center of these four ocean regions was an area rich in resources. It was a surprise that the Calamity Ocean Demon’s brain didn’t oxidize after sleeping for several thousand years, but it even knew to first occupy the most important resource holy land in Eastern Ocean. This guaranteed its expansion.

Chu Mu didn’t know whether he was tied to the Life Providence Grass by fate. Night needed it for its corpse removal immortal item, Princess Jinrou needed it for her resurrection medicine and now Yellow Springs needed it as well.

He had tried to take the long way around, but ended up having to go and get the Life Providence Grass himself. While he flew to the Calamity Ocean Demon’s territory, Chu Mu vowed to himself that if he had the chance, he would definitely grab a few more of these. Who knew if he would need this treasure next.

Chu Mu flew in the sky. He didn’t think that the Calamity Ocean Demon had extended its claws to the sky.

Indeed, there was nothing in the skies above the ocean region the Calamity Ocean Demon was ruling over. However, as he flew through the sky, he was able to see a few groups of silhouettes rapidly swimming underwater every once in a while. Although they were swimming very deep underwater, their powerful movement through the water caused the ocean’s surface to split into countless long and deep water scars.

“These things are much stronger than the Calamity Ocean Demon’s army in the outer ocean region.” Chu Mu watched the turbulent ocean and muttered to himself.

“Young master, safety is most important. This Calamity Ocean Demon really isn’t someone good to provoke.” said Old Li.

The small Yellow Springs was on the brink of death so Chu Mu didn’t think too much about it. If he didn’t try, how would he know if those Ocean Iguana Generals in the Calamity Ocean Demon’s territory were that terrifying?

Chu Mu found a place where there were no ocean demons patrolling and entered the ocean alone.

Chu Mu had left NIng Maner in Exile Ocean to take care of the small Yellow Springs. It would be much easier for him to move alone.

Even underwater, Chu Mu could use Displacement Specter to leap through space. However, the distance he could leap was reduced due to the water’s interference.

Moreover, when the space would warp, the water would also visibly change. Thus, the location of his Displacement Specter would be easily detected.

After arriving underwater, Chu Mu was particularly careful. He used the shadows in the ocean to dodge the swimming ocean demons.

This region was under the control of the Azure Ocean Iguanas. These azure colored Ocean Iguana Demons could be seen everywhere holding their water form weapons as they patrolled.

The Azure Ocean Iguanas was a subspecies of the Ocean Iguana Demons. Their innate nature was savage and bloodthirsty. It was said that many Azure Ocean Iguana leaders would mercilessly kill younger members so that they wouldn’t be able to surpass their status.

Such actions were very immoral in the Ocean species and were spurned. Thus, the Azure Ocean Iguanas were not liked.

The Calamity Ocean Demon grabbed onto this opportunity and recruited the Azure Ocean Iguanas into its army where slaughter was rampant.

The Azure Ocean Iguanas were innately bararious and they preferred a leader like the Calamity Ocean Demon which encouraged the strong eating the weak. Therefore, the entire subspecies joined the Calamity Ocean Demon’s banner, becoming the Eastern Ocean’s greatest enemy.

Chu Mu had stayed in the Ocean species now for some time and understood many things about the species.

Towards a proud and arrogant species like the Azure Ocean Iguanas, if he didn’t crush them until they had no dignity left, they wouldn’t obediently listen to him. Chu Mu was thus bewildered as to why the Azure Ocean Iguanas were not among the species the small Yellow Springs had damaged.

The Azure Ocean Iguanas had a very acute sense of smell and they could sense extremely minute water movements. Their azure eyes would then lock onto that area of abnormality.

As Chu Mu traveled in the water, he used a spatial barrier to isolate himself from the water. While he moved, he was very careful to not suddenly cause water movement. But this made his movements very difficult.

“If this was on land, I could kill a few of them without even being noticed!” Chu Mu silently cursed.

Being underwater was too limiting on his movements.

If they were on land, a few thousand of these ranked Azure Ocean Iguanas wouldn’t be able to detect Chu Mu, who was adept at concealment. However, he was now stopped because of a few hundred patrolling Azure Ocean Iguanas.

“O lu~~~~~”

Suddenly, an enormous creature swam in front of Chu Mu.

Chu Mu looked over, and astonishingly discovered that it was a Blood Eating Iron Whale.

This Blood Eating Iron Whale was too large. From its aura, it was probably at the pseudo immortal rank!

Chu Mu had completely slaughtered that group of Blood Eating Iron Whales in Exile Ocean. He didn’t expect one to have escaped that net. If it weren’t because he was afraid of startling that group of Azure Ocean Iguanas, Chu Mu would have jumped out and crushed that Blood Eating Iron Whale to death!

The Blood Eating Iron Whale swam across and the group of Azure Ocean Iguanas immediately followed it. This gave Chu Mu an opportunity to continue sneaking in.

The Ocean Calamity Demon’s headquarters was located at the bottom of the ocean. From the bottom of the ocean to the ocean’s surface was covered with the Calamity Ocean Demon’s lackeys and pawns. It really would be difficult for Chu Mu to reach the bottom of the ocean and sneak into the deep sea trench that was full of protection.

Fortunately, his darkness attribute wasn’t greatly limited. Otherwise, he would have difficulty moving even a single step in the ocean region.

As he continued downwards, Chu Mu gradually discovered that the army size of the Calamity Ocean Demon had was very large.

There were over 20 thousand Azure Ocean Iguanas on the outer patrol and their average strength was between the emperor and dominator ranks. The strength of this 20 thousand Azure Ocean Iguana army was equivalent to a thousand manned dominator rank army.

And as he approached Cave City at the bottom of the ocean, he could find dominator rank ocean monsters everywhere. Chu Mu didn’t count them, but he was able to guess there were about 4000!

Presumably, these 4000 dominator rank ocean monsters were all the elite troops of the Calamity Ocean Demon.

Besides just this, there were many immortal rank ocean monsters and demons. Chu Mu was able to sense that among the tangled and complex web of caves at the bottom of the ocean were some that emitted powerful auras that would make one shiver. In fact, when Chu Mu passed by one, he felt as if there were eyes watching him.

Chu Mu didn’t dare linger in this terrifying and deep ocean bottom city. He moved around the heavily guarded areas and continued moving to the even deeper trench.

However, there were an even larger number of Azure Ocean Iguanas in the trench, giving Chu Mu a huge headache. Occasionally, there were also large Blood Eating Iron Whales blocking Chu Mu’s path with their fat bodies.

“Young master, there’s not much time.” Old Li warned Chu Mu.

Chu Mu glanced at the ocean trench filled with moving monster figures. He grit his teeth and said: “I can only slaughter my way through!”

“You can’t do that. Next to us is the Calamity Ocean Demon’s nest. In a few minutes, a few thousand dominator rank ocean monsters will surround this place as well as over a hundred immortal rank creatures. If you disturb the Calamity Ocean Demon, perhaps it may personally come out and young master won’t be able to leave.” said Old Li.

“It’s unlikely to be that bad. Also, that fellow might not be in the ocean floor city.” said Chu Mu.

Time was urgent and Chu Mu couldn’t spend long thinking. He immediately emerged from the shadows in the depth of the ocean.

The moment he appeared, his hand transformed into a spatial blade that instantly cleaved the Blood Eating Iron Whale, blocking his view and path, in half!

“Shua!!!!!”

Chu Mu passed in between the two halves of the Blood Eating Iron Whale. His body transformed into a meteorite arrow that rapidly burst through the obstruction force of the water as aimed for the depths of the trench.

"Kui!!!!!!! Kui!!!!!!!!”

A group of ten Azure Ocean Iguanas alarmingly discovered the invader and immediately let out extremely sharp cries!

This shout could be heard through the entire ocean floor city, let alone the trench.

Chu Mu passed by the front of these ten Azure Ocean Iguanas. The chaotic ocean currents around him transformed into a terrifying twisting blade force that chopped the ten Azure Ocean Iguanas into pieces.

Chu Mu’s strength was restricted underwater, but how could these tiny shrimps stop his tyrannical power?!

As Chu Mu dived down, the chaotic streams around him grew stronger and wider. The ocean water in the trench formed an enormous deep ocean vortex from his rapid diving and followed next to him.

Any creature that obstructed Chu Mu’s path, regardless if it was an enormous Blood Eating Iron Whale, or an agile and savage Azure Ocean Iguana, everything was ground to pieces or thrown against the wall on either side of the trench, causing their innards to break!

Chu Mu’s frantic charge was unstoppable and he dived straight from the edge of the trench to the bottom. All of the corpses and blood he swept up mushed together before terrifyingly proliferating!

“Kui Kui!!!!!! Kui!!!!!!!! Kui!!!!!!!!!”

Nearby in the ocean trench, a sharp cry rang out!

Chu Mu turned around and looked above him. He immediately discovered that a mass of azure monsters were swimming down from the top of the trench as if they were going to fill up the entire trench!

“So fast!” Chu Mu jumped with fright. These monsters were too vigilant. It was as if they were already here to lay a trap.

“Old Li, hurry up and find the Life Providence Grass. If you don’t find it in three minutes, we’ll all die here.” Chu Mu said to Old Li.

“Young master, don’t play with our lives like this! What are we going to do now!” Old Li was speechless.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Hurry and find it!”
