Supreme Tamer

Chapter 315: 193: Metamorphosis, Seventh-rank Ning

“Ning, Ice Sword Array!” Chu Mu gave the order!

The Ice-Feathered Spirit had the ability to float. As the spirit incantation was chanted, various flying rocks flew towards its body.

Although the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s defense had reached the late stages of the seventh level, the flying rocks could not cause any real damage to it.

However, every time the Ice-Feathered Spirit chanted a spell, it would be disrupted by these skills, unable to execute any techniques.

“The attacks are too intense. Your Ice-Feathered Spirit has not learned higher-level elemental will, so it is impossible to release any effective skills without someone’s protection,” said Fox Elder.

Among Chu Mu’s Soul Pets, only the Ice-Feathered Spirit and the White Nightmare Demon had the ability to float. Although the White Nightmare Demon’s Soul Demon Flames could cause some damage to the Guaiyan Guardians, Chu Mu had to preserve his Soul Pets’ combat power; otherwise, they would have no strength to fight against the Sky Crystal Peak Lord or the pursuing Elemental Gate members.

Chu Mu was aware that it was difficult for the Ice-Feathered Spirit to perform under the attack of more than thirty Guaiyan Guardians, but summoning it was mainly to attract some of the Guaiyan Guardians’ attention.

“Mo Ye, let’s go,” Chu Mu looked up and said to Mo Ye.

Mo Ye was agile, able to dodge the attacks of the Guaiyan Guardians even with only a few shallow footholds between the mountain rocks and cliffs.

Crown Flame Claw!

As Mo Ye jumped, its sharp claw blades cut through the body of a Guaiyan Guardian. The rock guardian’s body was immediately split in half, with the Demon Fire Evil Flames and Crown Flames burning its rock body at the same time.

Under the escort of the Ice and Fire Fairy, Ye Qingzi quickly followed Chu Mu on her Night Thunder Dream Beast.

Ye Qingzi’s Ice and Fire Fairy had a strong elemental will, so the Guaiyan Guardians’ attacks could not hinder its incantations. After several skill executions, the Ice and Fire Fairy had killed six seventh-level Guaiyan Guardians.

Ye Qingzi didn’t linger in the fight. The longer they stayed there, the more unfavorable it would be for them. She let the Ice and Fire Fairy follow closely and quickly climbed towards a higher point on the mountain wall with Chu Mu’s Night Thunder Dream Beast.

Guaiyan Guardians could move freely on cliffs and terrains using their rock-based skills, but their movement speed was slow. After several leaps by Mo Ye and the Night Thunder Dream Beast, they left the Guaiyan Guardians far behind, and the chaotic rock attacks all fell below their Soul Pets.

After another leap, the two pets escaped the attack range of the Guaiyan Guardians, who knew they were not as fast and only made some unpleasant noises without chasing them anymore.

“There’s a plank road up there, let’s rest there for a while,” said Chu Mu.

After climbing hundreds of meters of steep, vertical cliffs, they reached a place similar to a plank road on the cliff at the highest point. This plank road, extending slightly from the edge of the peak, was not very wide and could only accommodate two or three people side by side. Mo Ye and the Night Thunder Dream Beast could barely stand there.

Above the plank road, an almost vertical mountain peak loomed. Looking up, they could only see the clouds they were gradually approaching.

A wild wind howled in their ears, sitting on the edge of the narrow path, their legs dangling thousands of meters above the ground. Looking down, a rugged mountain range stretched out below, the far-away peaks outlining the curved boundary of the vast space at the edge of their vision.

“We’re in trouble now. If we go up, there will probably be more Guaiyan Guardians…” Ye Qingzi was healing her Purple-Robe Dream Beast while speaking.

Temporarily, Chu Mu couldn’t think of a better solution. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed a pair of eyes emerging from the cliff ten meters away from Ye Qingzi!

“There are Guaiyan Guardians here too!” Chu Mu furrowed his brow, immediately stood up, and released his Soul Sense.

When they had landed here earlier, Chu Mu had specifically used his Soul Sense to search the area and didn’t find any Soul Pet breaths. However, now in the area sensed by his Soul Sense, it was completely enveloped in thick rock aura, making Chu Mu feel as if he was trapped in a storm of countless sand and rocks, making it even difficult to breathe!

A pair of eyes appeared on the rocks, dense and numerous!

On the plank road, within the rocks, up and down the stone walls, all were these eyes. As their bodies slowly emerged from the rocks, they stared at Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi with hostility.

“There are more than a hundred…” Ye Qingzi scanned the surroundings, her face turning a few shades paler as she saw the black-ish brown Guaiyan Guardians covering almost the entire cliff.

This time, the number of Guaiyan Guardians that appeared was even more overwhelming, completely surrounding Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi. It seemed that even if they jumped down from the mountain’s high point, they would have to withstand the rock-based attacks of hundreds of Guaiyan Guardians.

“Grrrrrr! Grrrrrr! Grrrrrr!”

“Grrrrrr! Grrrrrr! Grrrrrr!”

Like the sound of stones colliding, hundreds of Guaiyan Guardians roared angrily in unison. The ground shook, rubble on the plank road tumbled down…

“Rumble rumble rumble”

From high above, boulders larger than humans bounced several times on the stone walls, kicking up a layer of dust and rocks, fell to the plank road, crushing several holes in it, and then sank heavily into the deeper abyss of the mountain peak…

“Mo Ye, protect us. Ning, engage in battle!” Chu Mu gave the orders at the first opportunity.

“Water Curtain Battle Armor!” Ye Qingzi instructed the Ice and Fire Fairy, and then quickly recited a soul technique incantation, enhancing the Water Curtain Battle Armor’s effects on her and Chu Mu.

“Rumble”

Facing such a large number of Guaiyan Guardians, the Ice-Feathered Spirit was unable to unleash powerful skills and could only continuously condense ice walls to block the flying rocks attack.

“Crash crash”

The cliff cracked open, and countless rock spikes shot out like giant spears from the mountainside, their range reaching at least ten meters. With no foothold on the plank road or the vertical rock wall, there was virtually nowhere to hide!

“Nine-tailed Fan!”

“Woooooo”

Mo Ye jumped between the falling rocks, and its nine long tails quickly turned into heavy chains, harshly sweeping at the giant rock spear that pierced!

“Bang!! Bang!!! Bang!!!!!!”

Rock spikes were instantly shattered by Mo Ye’s nine tails, chaotic fragments flying and heavily hitting the rock wall, punching countless holes.

“Screech!!!!!!!!!”

The Ice-Feathered Spirit was close on Mo Ye’s tail, however, it was always disrupted from using more powerful Ice Sword Array by the Guaiyan Guardian’s attacks. The Ice-Feathered Spirit was noticeably irritated.

Yet, just as the Ice-Feathered Spirit let out an angry cry, five Guaiyan Guardians appeared in front of it, their half-meter-long claws almost simultaneously tearing towards the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body.

The Ice-Feathered Spirit was too late to dodge, its body was only scratched with shallow wounds but was relentlessly blasted against the rock wall, sinking several meters deep!

“Frost Armor!”

Seeing that Chu Mu’s Ice-Feathered Spirit was injured, Ye Qingzi immediately instructed the Ice and Fire Fairy to use Frost Armor skill!

The Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body possessed ice crystal armor, so other defensive skills could not be superimposed unless its strength was directly raised. The Frost Armor, which revolved around and protected its surname was one of the few skills that could be superimposed. Ye Qingzi was obviously very knowledgeable about this.

With defenses reaching late stage seventh level, after the effects of Frost Armor were added, the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s defenses were very close to level eight. So when it was struck into stone wall and followed by a series of attacks, it only suffered some minor surface wounds.

“Screech!!!!!!!!!!!”

The Ice-Feathered Spirit was completely enraged, crying out sharply while its body was still in the rocks!

Chu Mu’s Ice-Feathered Spirit was always like an innocent child. When the Ice-Feathered Spirit was angry, Chu Mu clearly felt its anger transmitted through his soul. This emotion was transformed into some kind of strange power…

“Screech!”

Ning didn’t chant the incantation, however, at the appearance of a tremendous cold aura, frost quickly condensed around the pit in the stone wall, completely freezing the area and violently expanding towards the surrounding walls!

“Crack Crack Crack”

Due to the ice-formed obstruction, the Guaiyan Guardians’ rock spears, which pierced out of the rock walls, could no longer advance and were forcibly suppressed by Ning’s icy domain.

The crystal-clear body gradually took on a special luster, which was as dazzling and cold as the sunlight reflected by a clean glacier in bright sunlight.

As the light bloomed, the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s flesh gradually revealed a hint of blue brilliance, making its snow-white body as transparent as ever.

The Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body was as flawless as a perfect crystal. At this moment, when the blue brilliance shone on it, it gradually revealed a blue and white effect!

“Metamorphosis!”

Watching the transformation of the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body, Chu Mu’s face immediately revealed a joyful expression.

Seventh-rank, the Ice-Feathered Spirit finally fully absorbed the effects of the Ice Snow Fruit and metamorphosed into the first-stage of the seventh rank!

The transformation of the Ice-Feathered Spirit changed only its ice flesh. Chu Mu knew that this transformation of the Ice-Feathered Spirit was thorough because Chu Mu had already felt another type of ice crystal seemingly brewing within the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body!

These ice crystals were merely forming in the Ice-Feathered Spirit’s body; they had not yet taken shape. However, given some time, they would undoubtedly emerge and be fully controlled by it!
