Chapter 647: Chapter 518: Battle, Ninth Level Prisoner Duan Xinze

“Duan Xinze!! Could this guy be the notorious Duan Xinhe’s brother!!” Shang Heng looked at the man in shock.

Duan Xinhe was a vicious prisoner wanted by the Soul Hall, who should have had all his soul pets killed and was barely surviving in small cities.

Meanwhile, Duan Xinhe’s brother, Duan Xinze, had always been in prison. Shang Heng never expected such a ruthless criminal to appear in the eighth realm’s trial!

Chu Mu calmly watched the prisoner. They had a total of four people, so even if Duan Xinze’s strength were strong, he couldn’t possibly defeat the four of them combined.

“Ladies, don’t be nervous. Although I, Duan Xinze, have done many evil things, I am very, very gentle with beautiful and charming ladies like you. Of course, the premise is that you don’t make me angry. I get angry easily, and when I’m angry, I don’t know what I’ll do.” Duan Xinze jumped down from the high rock, landing steadily.

He took strides, slowly approaching Chu Mu and the others.

He had a thin and dry body, his eyes playful and wicked, with a hypocritical smile hanging on his face. When Ting Lan felt his gaze sweep over her body, she experienced an indescribable discomfort and strangeness, as if she had no clothes covering her body.

Duan Xinhe approached alone, seemingly ready to face the more than a dozen soul pets of Chu Mu and the three others.

Ting Lan, Shang Heng, and Ye Qingzi couldn’t see the Gluttonous Insect monsters, but Chu Mu’s eyes were able to see the countless, faint outlines surrounding Duan Xinze!!

Those were a large number of Gluttonous Insect monsters, which, following their master, were steadily approaching. As soon as an order was given, the twenty Gluttonous Insect monsters would pounce on the four people!

“Open the medicine bottle and let the competition guards come.” Chu Mu said to Shang Heng through soul sense.

“Chu Chen?” Shang Heng didn’t know why Chu Mu suddenly did this.

“Do as I say. This ninth-level prisoner’s strength has not been restricted by the game organizers. I’m not sure if his Mother of a Hundred can continue to reproduce. We only have ten minutes to battle. In these ten minutes, if he has other Gluttonous Insect monsters, we’ll need the competition guards to take action.” Chu Mu told them.

Shang Heng looked at Chu Mu and saw that he was very serious. Without any hesitation, he opened the medicine bottle, releasing the scent.

“It’s useless. The competition guards will take ten minutes to arrive. Within ten minutes, your soul pets will have been killed by me. After that, I will cut off your tongue and seal your soul sense before handing you over to the competition guards. Then, I’ll hide these two beauties. When the competition guards leave, I’ll slowly cultivate relationships with them.” Duan Xinze didn’t care at all about Shang Heng’s actions.

Chu Mu stood in front of the others and said coldly, “You and your brother Duan Xinhe are the same, talking a lot of nonsense before the battle.”

“Duan Xinhe? You’ve met him?” Duan Xinze raised his eyebrows, showing some surprise.

“Yeah, I’ve met him.” Chu Mu said indifferently.

“I wonder, since you’ve seen him, how are you still alive?” Duan Xinze asked with interest.

“Because he’s the one who died.” Chu Mu’s tone turned cold, and his eyes grew sharper!!

Mo Ye stood beside Chu Mu, its silver eyes locked on the tenth-rank quasi-monarch Gluttonous Insect monster next to Duan Xinhe!

The Demon Tree Warrior’s roots had already been set up within a hundred-meter radius of Chu Mu. In a group battle, the Demon Tree Warrior had never been afraid, even when facing twenty Gluttonous Insect monsters!

After hearing Chu Mu’s words, Duan Xinze’s smile on his face became stiff, and his eyes gradually darkened.

“Who killed him?” Duan Xinze asked slowly.

“Me. Your brother, Duan Xinhe, had nothing but arrogance and delusions besides his abilities.” Chu Mu said.

“Hahaha, it’s hilarious. With this little thing like you, you think you can kill him? At his strongest, only the Palace Master level of your Soul Hall could possibly be his opponent. Even if his soul pets were killed, it would be as easy as turning his hand.” Duan Xinze suddenly burst into laughter, apparently not believing Chu Mu’s words.

When Chu Mu met Duan Xinhe, he possessed the Mother of a Hundred, and the strongest of the Gluttonous Insect monsters had only reached the ninth stage. Chu Mu hadn’t expected that Duan Xinhe had once possessed the even more terrifying Mother of a Thousand.

The Mother of a Thousand was a monarch-level soul pet, and if its battle level was very high, the Gluttonous Insect monsters it split up could directly reach the complete form of the tenth rank.

No wonder Duan Xinze could create so many tenth-rank Gluttonous Insect monster minions in such a short time. It seemed that he possessed the even more terrifying Mother of a Thousand instead of the Mother of a Hundred!

“Young Master, his Gluttonous Insect monsters may have already formed a scale, and the Mother of a Thousand itself has a strong combat power. If he summons the Mother of a Thousand, it is very likely that you will be seriously injured if you fight him head-on.” Fox Elder reminded Chu Mu.

“Gluttonous Insect monsters are fast and numerous, so simply running away is more dangerous. We must first kill some of them. Besides, this guy’s head is worth 1 billion, so it’s worth fighting.Even if we can’t defeat them, the Competition Guards will arrive within ten minutes,” Chu Mu said.

Duan Xinze has a total of 20 Gluttonous Insect monsters, most of them are high-level commanders, and only 3 have reached the peak command. This strength is slightly weaker than those prisoners’ soul pets. Of course, these creatures also have the ability to go berserk, which is not easy to deal with.

Now with Shang Heng, Ting Lan, and Ye Qingzi’s combat power, the four of them have 15 soul pets in total. As long as they cooperate well, it shouldn’t be too difficult to deal with Duan Xinze.

Since they chose to fight, Chu Mu would not back down. As such, Chu Mu began chanting a spell. The soul skill he was using was Thirteen Hell Flames!

The power of Thirteen Hell Flames is enough to inflict a fierce blow to these Gluttonous Insect monsters, making the fight much easier.

Nine Nether Demon Flames began to burn slowly in Chu Mu’s hands, as the Thirteen Hell Flames required a 2-second incantation time!

“Wuuuuuu~~~”

Mo Ye’s body also ignited with Crown Flames, beginning to brew the eighth-level fire series skill with dual burning effects!

“Do you think you can complete such a lengthy spell at this distance?” Duan Xinze was much more sensitive than those prisoners. He immediately saw that Chu Mu was casting an eighth-level fire series skill and pointed both his hands!

Suddenly, two peak-command Gluttonous Insect monsters rushed out at an incredible speed, not giving Chu Mu a chance to finish chanting the spell. Their sharp claw blades ruthlessly slashed towards Chu Mu and Mo Ye!

Ye Qingzi also knew the key to Chu Mu’s spell. She ordered her Water Moon and Battle Court Black Beast to block the two peak command Gluttonous Insect monsters.

However, the whole battle was triggered by Chu Mu’s spell, and all of the Gluttonous Insect monsters pounced towards Chu Mu’s group, launching a ferocious attack!

Ye Qingzi successfully blocked the two peak-command monsters for Chu Mu, but the Gluttonous Insect monsters were too fast. In just one second, they charged into the formation of soul pets, launching a frenzied claw blade attack.

Chu Mu’s spell was completed, but he couldn’t release the skill because it would also affect his own soul pets!

“Don’t bother with useless tricks, just let your soul pets become food for my Gluttonous Insect monsters!” Duan Xinze sneered.

When Chu Mu started chanting his spell, Duan Xinze knew that he was casting Thirteen Hell Flames, which could cause serious damage to his Gluttonous Insect monsters if they were clustered together.

Unfortunately, his Gluttonous Insect monsters were not a group of clumsy demon beasts. Chu Mu would have to attack even his own soul pets to be able to release Thirteen Hell Flames.

Chu Mu’s heart sank, not expecting Duan Xinze to be so cunning. He could only give up on releasing Thirteen Hell Flames for now, quickly retreated behind his soul pets to avoid the Gluttonous Insect monsters’ attacks.

Duan Xinze was cunning and knew that the elemental soul pets could cause group damage to his Gluttonous Insect monsters. So he intentionally used the previous three high-level command Gluttonous Insect monsters to attract the attention of Chu Mu and the others before sneaking into a distance of less than 200 meters from them.

For the Gluttonous Insect monsters, these 200 meters mean nothing. Elemental soul pets would probably not even have finished chanting a spell before the Gluttonous Insect monsters rushed up.

Duan Xinze had been calculating the four of them from the very beginning. Now, all Gluttonous Insect monsters rushed up, making it difficult for the elemental soul pets to form a long-range bombardment effect, greatly reducing their killing power. They had to engage in direct combat with these monsters!

“Don’t panic, just control your soul pets well. If one of you carelessly reveals a flaw, hehe… I won’t show any mercy,” Duan Xinze said, standing on the outskirts of the battlefield, watching as an outsider. However, every once in a while, his eyes would sweep the battlefield sharply!

He controlled all 20 Gluttonous Insect monsters by himself, and the coordination between them was unexpectedly tight. After the first wave of attacks, Chu Mu and his group were completely scattered!

“Qingzi, be careful, they’re going for you!!” Chu Mu suddenly shouted, nimbly leaping onto Mo Ye’s back and rushing toward Ye Qingzi!

“Your reaction is quite fast, you know who I’m targeting?” Duan Xinze raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on the Nine-Tailed Crown Flame Fox that was agilely maneuvering through the Gluttonous Insect monsters.

In a battle, it’s very difficult to cause casualties if there’s a support type Soul Pet Master present.

Duan Xinze knew that elemental soul pets could potentially harm his Gluttonous Insect monsters and deliberately let the previous three high-level command Gluttonous Insect monsters attract the attention of Chu Mu and the others. Then, they stealthily entered a distance of less than 200 meters from Chu Mu’s group.

This distance of 200 meters was nothing to the Gluttonous Insect monsters. The elemental soul pets were unable to complete the bombardment effect in such a short distance, so the killing power was greatly reduced, and they had to fight directly with these monsters!

“Don’t panic, just control your soul pets well. If one of you carelessly reveals a flaw, hehe… I won’t show any mercy.” Duan Xinze stood on the outskirts of the battlefield, appearing as a bystander. However, every once in a while, his eyes would sweep the battlefield sharply!

Chu Mu noticed this cunning tactic, and quickly rushed to Ye Qingzi’s side to rescue her!
