“What does the team leader think?” After Zhang Ying finished speaking, he asked Team Leader Dakun for his opinion.

“This young man managed to make it all the way here by himself, so his strength should be quite strong. However, I also think that he might be in the situation you mentioned.” Dakun said.

“Forget about that person for now, let’s discuss our soul pet lineup next. Since we chose the safest route, our soul pets must have consumed a lot of energy. We need to figure out the coordination among our fifteen soul pets and whether they can counter the iron-skinned soul pets of the Pupa Tribe.” Qin River opened the discussion.

The other four also nodded their heads, discussing what soul pet lineup to use against the numerous soul pets with extremely high defense.

The southernmost part of the valley has the shortest narrow path, which is about two thousand meters long. If a demon spirit were to run at full speed, it would not take a few minutes to traverse it.

However, this two-thousand-meter narrow path is the most dangerous one because the insect soul pets inhabiting it are highly aggressive Blade Stings whose arms are like blades. Once these soul pets gather together, they become sharp weapons that emit an icy cold gleam. Even the slightest carelessness can lead to being dismembered.

The reason why the five hunters from the association didn’t choose this path is that it is too dangerous; casualties could easily occur. As a result, they would rather spend more time and energy dealing with the soul pets of the Pupa Tribe.

Chu Mu’s choice to walk this path alone also has its reasons. First, the length of that route is at least four to five kilometers, which is extremely time-consuming despite being safer.

If Chu Mu felt that he couldn’t compete with those five people, he would decisively choose to join them so that he could at least share a sixth of the rewards, and the success rate would be much higher.

However, Chu Mu now believed that if they chose that route, he could still take the initiative and capture the Monarch-level soul pet before they entered the valley, as long as he moved fast enough, even with their five-person advantage.

Chu Mu had been tracking the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird for nearly half a month, and he had never expected others to set their sights on it as well. If it were snatched away by someone else, he would be unwilling to accept it. Therefore, this time, he had to compete with these five people.

Since there were competitors, Chu Mu had to hurry up. So, he didn’t linger outside any longer and decisively entered the dangerous insect valley route, racing against the five of them.

According to the original plan, Chu Mu’s three soul pets, which were not recalled into the soul pet space, were also fully energized and ready to fight at any time.

After passing through a patch of overgrown weeds, the terrain gradually sinks and quickly turns into a noticeable narrow path that appears in front of Chu Mu.

The entrance of this narrow path is very narrow. Some large soul pets would have difficulty passing through. Fortunately, Chu Mu’s soul pets are not of that size, so they easily pass through the path between the walls, entering the narrow path leading to the valley lake.

The steep sides of the narrow path are both very slick, whether it’s due to the secretion of fluids from the insect soul pets or they’re damp by nature. It’s difficult for soul pets with insufficient claw strength to climb up.

Initially, the width of the path is only about five meters. As it goes deeper, the narrow path gradually widens.

“Hoo, hoo, hoo ”

Wind blowing from the valley hits Chu Mu’s face. This wind, after being cut by the cliff, becomes extremely cold, making Chu Mu feel as if his cheeks were rubbing against an icy blade.

The light here is not very abundant, as most insect-based soul pets prefer shade rather than sunlight.

As Chu Mu goes deeper into the narrow path, it grows darker and darker. In the end, even with sunlight, it only illuminates half of the steep slope, and one can clearly see an area of pitch-black darkness where the sun doesn’t reach.

“Sizzle, sizzle ”

“Squeak, squeak, squeak  squeak, squeak, squeak ”

Noises of the insect soul pets come from gaps between rocks, below the muddy ground, and from plant branches. As they enter the narrow path, they can clearly sense that there are soul pets moving around, and occasionally a pair of bright eyes in the darkness secretly watches the humans who intruded…

Magic Tree Warriors, Zhan Ye, and the Ghost Dome King are currently at a higher stage, and their aura has a certain deterrence factor. As a result, weaker insect soul pets will definitely not dare to act rashly, and without any leader, they can only hide on the side and quietly watch.

“Sizzle, sizzle ”

Finally, more than a dozen Blade Stings, unable to contain their loneliness, slowly appeared around Chu Mu. Their eyes, gleaming with yellow light, stared at Chu Mu, while their four blade-like arms rubbed gently against each other, making a somewhat harsh metallic noise. One could also clearly feel the sharpness of their weapons.

“An eight-stage War General Blade Sting, leading a group of seven-stage Blade Stings…” Chu Mu glanced at these enemies and quickly judged the strength of these fifteen Blade Stings.

Blade Sting: Demon Beast World – Insect Species – Sting Clan – Medium War General Level

“Ghost Monarch, leave these to you,” said Chu Mu.

The Ghost Dome King possessed weapons as well, and with its Monarch-level temperament, it treated these soul pets with much higher levels than itself with a contemptuous manner.

After Chu Mu’s command, the Ghost Monarch’s curved sword surged with ghostly qi, and its proud ghost eyes stared at the Eighth Stage Sword Sting.

“Roar!!!!!!” A terrifying roar resounded!

The Sixth Rank Third-stage Ghost Dome King danced with its curved sword, directly attacking the Eighth Stage Blade Sting War General.

As the power of the Sword Stings was not even at Level 7, the purpose of the Ghost Dome King was very clear. During its movement, it completely ignored the Level 7 Blade Stings and ferociously swung its King’s Ghost Sword towards the Eighth Stage Blade Sting.

The Eighth Stage Blade Sting felt the Monarch-level aura of the Ghost Dome King, and even before the battle began, it was full of panic. In a hurry, it hid behind a large boulder!

“Bang!!!!!!!”

The power of the King’s Ghost Sword spread out, shattering the huge rolling stone, and directly sending the Eighth Stage Blade Sting flying.

“Clang clang clang

More than a dozen Seventh-rank Blade Stings simultaneously pounced at the Ghost Dome King. The Ghost Dome King’s powerful late-stage Level 7 defense completely ignored the little insects crawling on its body, taking huge strides and thrusting its curved sword into the ground!

“Rumble rumble rumble”

The slightly moist ground cracked open, and from within the fissure, a ferocious Rock Python leaped out, shattering all the Seventh-rank Blade Stings and directly attacking the Eighth Stage Blade Sting!

As the Ghost Dome King launched its attack, the Demon Tree Warrior also moved. If the Ghost Dome King were to confront the Eighth Stage Blade Sting, the battle would definitely last for some time, as the Eighth Stage War General level soul pet could barely fight evenly with the Sixth Stage Monarch level.

The Wood Finger Prison appeared silently and quickly, and the Eighth Stage Blade Sting was quickly strangled to the ground. At this time, the Ghost Dome King’s Level 7 Earth Skills had already arrived!

The Eighth Stage Blade Sting barely had time to adjust its body before a Level 7 Earth attack arrived. As the Rock Python wildly bombarded its position, the Blade Sting’s thin body was immediately battered and bruised, emitting a painful cry. If not for the insect’s tenacious vitality, the Level 7 Earth skill would have killed it directly.

The Ghost Dome King swept its greatsword, killing several obstructing Seventh-rank Blade Stings then approached the Eighth Stage Blade Sting and fiercely stabbed its curved sword into its skull, ending the soul pet’s life.

The Eighth Stage Blade Sting did not struggle for long before it completely lost its vitality. The remaining Blade Stings quickly dispersed, not daring to obstruct the Ghost Dome King anymore.

Chu Mu knew this was just the weakest wave of soul pets daring to block his path on the narrow road. He was certain that there would be more of these creatures as he progressed.

“Hiss hiss hiss”

“Hiss hiss hiss hiss”

As expected, not even a few hundred meters ahead, Chu Mu encountered nearly fifty Seventh Stage or higher Blade Stings. There were around four Eighth Stage Blade Stings among them, and it would be a stretch for the Ghost Dome King to handle this many soul pets alone.

“Demon Tree, Demon Wood Roots!” More and more Blade Stings closed in, and Chu Mu decisively issued battle instructions to his soul pet.

The Demon Tree Warrior’s Advanced Demon Wood Roots were extremely effective. Every ten roots combined could instantly kill a Seventh Stage Blade Sting. Now that the Demon Tree Warrior had more than eighty roots, one technique could instantly kill seven or eight Blade Stings. Furthermore, the Demon Tree Warrior could simultaneously release multiple techniques, guaranteeing at least ten Blade Stings would die under its attack.

With the Demon Tree Warrior taking on the majority of the killing, Battle managed to snatch only ten insect heads, while the Ghost Dome King had just cut down three Blade Stings before the battle ended due to the Demon Tree Warrior’s powerful killing ability.

More than fifty corpses were strewn about, pierced and strangled by the Demon Tree Warrior’s surroundings.

The Blade Sting corpses emitted a strange smell, similar to a signal. Not long after Chu Mu’s battle, another large group of Blade Stings swarmed in!

Densely packed on the steep slope, at least two hundred Blade Stings wriggled above. Chu Mu knew that continuing to stay here would only lead to constant entanglements with these creatures. He jumped onto Battle’s back and let the Demon Tree Warrior guard their rear as they rushed further into the depths.
