Chapter 1612: Chapter 1472: The Vassal of the Ancient Jiao People
At night, after flying past the vast expanse of ice and snow, Chu Mu found the air to be unusually cold.
The howling cold wind carried a cutting force, which could tear open one’s skin upon contact. Surviving here without the thick fur of those Ice Mountain Monsters and Ice Mountain Monster Birds was undoubtedly impossible amidst the extreme chilling freeze and the fierce biting gales.
This coldness was somewhat abnormal, as the New Moon Land was in essence just a third-level Earthly Realm.
While human strength was significantly increasing, there was no reason for the Soul Pets inhabiting the New Moon Land to suddenly gain the power to contend with humans.
There must be some monster causing trouble!
“Ye, can you sense anything?” Chu Mu inquired.
Ye shook its head; it just continued moving towards a direction judged by intuition.
Under the veil of nightfall, many monsters roamed the Glacier Land, where occasionally one could spot one or two Dominator Ice Mountain Monsters.
These Dominator-level creatures couldn’t possibly belong to the New Moon Land; they were very likely from the Ice and Snow World Dynasty further to the North, a colossal kingdom of Ice-attribute creatures.
“Mwah!!!!!!!!!”
Suddenly, from the depths of a pitch-black iceberg far away, came a roar as regal as an emperor’s, shaking the entire Glacial World violently.
After the horrifying roar, the whole glacier seemed to boil over as the Ice Mountain Monsters began to run wildly, becoming incredibly agitated and frenzied!
“Roar roar roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Roar roar roar roar roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Countless monstrous roars came from all around the glacier; they seemed to be completely controlled, mysteriously leaving their original territories, and launching an invasion towards human lands!
“Young Master, that was the roar of war and chaos, a very ancient Racial Skill,” Fox Elder’s voice drifted out.
“What does it do?” Chu Mu asked.
“The Soul Pets possessing this ability are often the Sub-clans with the highest bloodlines within a race, naturally having the power to rule and possessing the strongest strength of the entire race. Other Sub-clans almost always depend on it for survival, or they can achieve great strength through it… When this ruler lets out the roar of war and chaos, it’s akin to imposing Bloodthirsty Frenzy upon these Sub-clan creatures. Moreover, often this Bloodthirsty Frenzy will not recede but can become a permanent strength enhancement as they continue their bloodthirsty invasion,” said Fox Elder.
“No wonder these monsters dare to boldly invade human Territory,” Chu Mu mused thoughtfully.
With the promise of permanently increased strength through slaughter, the monsters perpetually kill to gain greater power. Unable to kill their own kind, they then choose to invade human lands.
“Can you guess what creature it might be?” Chu Mu asked.
“Right now, we only know it’s an ancient Ice-attribute species; we can’t be certain beyond that. Creatures with bloodlines above Immortal level mostly possess this kind of racial commanding ability. Even when you transform into the Double Evil Nightmare Demon, the Evil Aura Territory from your body equally enhances the strength of all nearby Nightmare Demon Clan members,” Fox Elder explained.
Moving toward the origin of the sound, Chu Mu gradually found that monsters roaming closer to the habitat of that huge Ice Mountain creature were of higher levels.
The Continent is vast. As Chu Mu’s vision widened, encountering Dominator-level creatures became quite frequent, especially since he often ventured into higher-level Mysterious Realms.
However, normally when Chu Mu traveled, it was difficult to come across Dominator-level creatures, and even Emperor-level creatures might not be seen without being in some special places.
Given the current state of the New Moon Land, it was expected that only the Independent Spaces would regularly have higher-level creatures. It was unlikely for the main and surrounding territories of the New Moon Land to exceed the Dominator realm.
Right now, the stretch of the iceberg area Chu Mu was flying over belonged to the range of the North Ice Forbidden Zone of the New Moon Land. It was already surprising to encounter one or two Dominator-level creatures normally, yet on this piece of land Chu Mu had flown across, at least a hundred Ice-element Dominators had appeared!
In the Seal Valley of the Third Heaven, Chu Mu once saw thousands of Dominator creatures appearing together, so he was not surprised by the spectacle of an infestation of Dominators. But this wasn’t the Third Heaven’s Seal Valley; it was the much smaller New Moon Land. The sudden emergence of hundreds of Dominator creatures all at once was an extremely abnormal situation.
Moreover, how could Chu Mu ensure that even deeper in there weren’t more hordes of Ice Mountain Monsters?
Chu Mu sighed and shook his head, somewhat puzzled in his mind.
Why does such a strange occurrence happen in the New Moon Land ever since I assumed the title of King of the New Moon Land? Or is it that the New Moon Land itself is often prone to bizarre events, and I was simply unaware of this realm before, not knowing who resolved the issues even if things settled down?
“How come there are so many…” Chu Mu furrowed his brows, and finally stopped advancing in the midst of a vast glacier mountain range.
With Immortal-level strength, Chu Mu dared to fly brazenly through a glacier teeming with monsters.
But this didn’t mean he was invincible. When Chu Mu saw the appearance of a massive number of Emperor and Dominator Ice Mountain Armies in the Big Ice Mountain Range, even Chu Mu did not dare to advance further!
“Young Master, there are Immortal-level creatures inside!” Fox Elder said.
Indeed, Chu Mu could perceive the presence of Immortal-level beings, their chilling aura sending shivers down one’s spine!
Chu Mu himself could hardly believe that within the vast mountain ranges of the North Ice Forbidden Zone, there resided such a terrifying monster legion that could unleash an ice and snow disaster on any territory of the Struggle Land, not to mention the New Moon Land!!
Chu Mu did not recklessly enter.
If a thousand Dominator-level creatures were to release their skills at the same time, it would cause great harm to Chu Mu. The Ice Mountain Monster Army in the Glacial Mountain Range far exceeded the scale of a thousand Dominators, not to mention the presence of Immortal-level aura. If Chu Mu were to barge in like this, he would definitely be surrounded.
“Very unusual, extremely unusual!” Master Li said.
With Chu Mu’s current strength, there shouldn’t be anywhere in the Struggle Land that he would fear to tread, even daring to venture into the Ice and Snow World Dynasty.
But this time, he had to stop his steps within the North Ice Forbidden Zone!
“Mooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
The roar of the monster sounded again!!
This time Chu Mu heard it crystal clear, because the sound was coming from the towering Glacial Mountain Range right before his eyes!
The ice and snowstorm lashed out, whipping up howling blizzards, forcibly pushing Chu Mu a few steps back.
Chu Mu used a Space Barrier to defend himself, his gaze piercing through the blizzard, faintly discerning the shifting of an enormous behemoth within the dark Glacial Mountain Range!
At first, Chu Mu thought it was the peak of the mountains, towering above all. But when he saw a pair of horrifying eyes, he suddenly realized that it was not a mountain range at all, but a Giant Ice Beast whose head reached the clouds and feet trod the ground!
Those vicious and exceedingly evil eyes were filled with brutality and a desire to dominate, staring coldly and angrily at Chu Mu who had trespassed into its territory!
Its mouth opened wide, akin to a cave, and when it roared again, the eyes of those Ice Mountain Monsters in the mountain range all shifted towards him!!
Countless blood-red eyes scattered across the ground like a field of stars, while Ice Mountain Monster Birds in the sky flapped their wings, forming clouds that enveloped Chu Mu.
In an instant, the entire glacier was bustling with activity, and a bone-chilling murderous intent seemed to freeze the air!
At this moment, Chu Mu finally felt the true number of powerful creatures dwelling within this Glacial Mountain Range!
“Young Master, that monster has a stronger sense of awareness than you; you’ve been discovered,” said Master Li.
“Like I needed you to tell me that!” Chu Mu replied irritably.
Chu Mu could feel that the Glacier Giant Demon King’s strength definitely wasn’t inferior to his own, and more importantly, its Ice attribute obviously had a restraining effect on him. Just battling it would leave Chu Mu at a disadvantage.
Furthermore, countless generals surrounded the Glacier Giant Demon King, and even if it didn’t take action personally, these Ice Mountain Monsters could thoroughly drain Chu Mu’s stamina.
Without any hesitation, Chu Mu turned and left.
With the pursuit of the night and his own Space Conversion, Chu Mu managed to escape before those densely packed Ice Mountain Monsters could encircle him.
Though the Glacier Giant Demon King was strong, its speed was nowhere near Chu Mu’s. After seeing the enormous Ice Mountain chase after him for a distance, it eventually gave up the pursuit.
Creatures below the Immortal level had a hard time stopping Chu Mu, especially when coupled with the attributes of space and darkness. Chu Mu and Ye’s whereabouts were challenging to track, so after a moment of turmoil in the glacial land, as Chu Mu and Ye disappeared, the scene slowly calmed down.
These monsters were like a stationed army, building their strength and waiting for a better opportunity. After Chu Mu briefly caused chaos in their barracks, they returned to their original state.
Seeing that the monsters didn’t follow, Chu Mu felt somewhat uneasy instead.
The more organized the army, the more daunting it becomes. Clearly, these Ice Mountain Monsters were up to something.
“Young Master, you’ve seen that one before,” said Master Li.
“The Glacier Giant Demon King?” asked Chu Mu.
“Yes, its name is Extreme Sky Ice Demon, an ancient creature from the Elemental Ice Giant Clan. Didn’t I point it out to you at the Wind Palace?” Master Li stated.
“Wind Palace? This guy escaped from the Ancient Jiao people’s Wind Palace? How come I don’t remember it,” Chu Mu asked in surprise.
“At that time, it shrank its body; now it’s in its true form,” Master Li explained.
“Indeed, the Ancient Jiao people… has it awakened?” Chu Mu’s heart sank further.
“The Ancient Jiao people should not have awakened yet; the real Solar Eclipse has not arrived. However, their servants, petrified like sacrificial offerings, have. The Extreme Sky Ice Demon is one of them,” said Master Li.
“Just a subordinate of the Ancient Jiao people is already this strong,” said Chu Mu with a grim face.
“The Ancients Jiao people’s servants were all notorious creatures of that era; of course, they are strong. Have you forgotten that among those servants, there is a Sin Fox sealed known as the Dark King Shang!” Master Li reminded. (.)
