The Charm of Soul Pets

Yellow Spring Emperor’s appearance was similar to Calamity. It possessed a dragon tail and Unicorn race’s body, covered by golden scale armor.

On its two limbs, sharp bone armor protruded out, and many blade-like scales decorated the armor. The scales were densely packed and gave off an intimidating aura with its taut muscles.

Covered in colden scales, he could not see any weak point on Yellow Spring Emperor!

Yellow Spring Emperor twisted its body within the area below Heaven Palace as it seemed to have noticed someone present. It turned its head around and focused on Chu Mu with its dark yellow pupils.

Yellow Spring Emperor sensed Calamity’s aura from Chu Mu. It appeared that he was the human who looked after its child.

Little Yellow Spring was Yellow Spring Emperor’s youngest child, and was the child that was born between it and Yellow Spring Mother after it had become Undying rank.

Due to the laws of living things, the higher the rank, the lower the probability of fertilization. This was because the offspring would inherit some of the power from the parents, becoming stronger than normal offsprings.

Yellow Spring Emperor had many children, but most were born before it reached Undying rank. Some of those children had already died of old age in the ocean.

Meanwhile, Little Yellow Spring’s birth meant that it would inherit Yellow Spring Emperor’s Undying rank power. This resulted in Little Yellow Spring gaining a terrifying strength at such a young age, so terrifying that it could not even control itself.

Furthermore, Yellow Spring Emperor did not have any time to educate and restrain Little Yellow Spring. Little Yellow Spring just did everything as it liked and became a little tyrant in Eternal Ocean.

Hearing that humans could tame other races, and Little Yellow Spring certainly did not cause any trouble recently, Yellow Spring Emperor appreciated Chu Mu’s ability.

Yellow Spring Emperor stopped in mid-air and examined Chu Mu who was flying towards it.

Yellow Spring Emperor’s body size could compare with Ancient Flood Dragon Person. Chu Mu was not even as big as one of its scales. However, this did not obstruct their conversation.

“You are pretty early,” said Yellow Spring Emperor. Its voice was thunderous and carried a gust of wind.

Chu Mu was a little surprised. Why was Yellow Spring Emperor also able to speak human language?

As if seeing through Chu Mu’s question, Yellow Spring Emperor grinned, “After living for thousands of years, some languages can easily be learned. Undying rank’s physique is already different from most other creatures. The racial limit has also become not so obvious.”

“I don’t really understand,” said Chu Mu.

“Simply speaking, Undying means the eternity of the soul. After discarding the physical body, there won’t be so many restrictions between races...... Existences like us can be considered to have started jumping out of the ‘living thing’ boundary,” said Yellow Spring Emperor.

“You mean: Living thing should abide by the laws of birth and death. While we do not abide by that and so we cannot be called ‘living thing’ already?” asked Chu Mu.

“More or less. Oh, old Demon is here,” Yellow Spring Emperor turned its head and looked towards the west.

Chu Mu also looked towards there and saw demonic clouds rumbling in the sky!

Within the clouds, an astonishing silhouette gradually appeared. Chu Mu saw a huge tail that rivaled a mountain range stirring up the clouds.

In front of the tail, a slim body flew out and casually strolled in the demonic clouds.

Even though it was strolling slowly, it arrived before Chu Mu and Yellow Spring Emperor immediately.

Purple flame lingered below its four limbs. A long fox tail was similarly filled with purple flame aura. Silver fur fluttered in the air and its mane dragged behind like a silver cloak.

Solemn, aloof, intimidation and wild, for a moment, Chu Mu thought Mo Xie came to him as it could not bear to be separated.

However, judging from the aura, this Hades Purple Emperor was much stronger than Mo Xie. Its purple flame was not any inferior to the Devil Flame he used!

It was Hades Fox God, Demon Ancestor!

Hades Fox God seemed to have noticed Mo Xie sleeping on the mountain peak and stared at it with its silver eyes.

“It is not Hades,” Hades Fox God similarly used human language.

What astonished Chu Mu was that Hades Fox God’s voice was actually female. The voice was solemn and cold, giving off a dominating tone.

Mo Xie possessed nine tails, this was different from Hades Fox God’s single tail. However, Hades Fox God did not seem to be judging the uniqueness of Mo Xie from that. With the mental strength of an Undying rank, it should be able to see through the multiple fox race bloodline carried by Mo Xie.

“Do you know its origin?” asked Chu Mu.

Hades Fox God shook its head.

“Let’s get to the main topic,” said Yellow Spring Emperor.

Chu Mu, Hades Fox God and Yellow Spring Emperor had come to a consensus to maintain an allied relationship. If any one of them was in danger, the other two must help.

For the trip to Heaven Palace this time, the three of them naturally stood in the same faction.

“Chu Mu, you have just reached Undying rank, so you don’t know many things,” said Yellow Spring Emperor.

“Yes,” Chu Mu nodded.

“I said it just now, Undying rank cannot really be considered ‘living thing’ anymore. We have jumped out from the laws of birth and death. Even though only one Undying rank emerges every one thousand year, the total number will accumulate over the long period of time, to the point that will affect the stability of the world.”

“The reason Undying rank is called Undying, is because our current strength is strong enough to plunder resources from everything. We make use of these resources to exist. However, this act of plundering resources actually defied the laws of nature. After all, resources are not endless, and will even show signs of drying up due to our plunder. Hence, Heaven Palace decided that Undying rank can only exist for ten thousand years at most.”

Ten thousand years at most??

Yellow Spring Emperor and Demon Ancestor should have lived for many thousand years.

“That’s actually quite long?” said Chu Mu.

Hades Fox God shook its head and spoke with its cold female voice, “No Undying rank individual can live for ten thousand years. Because regardless of which era’s Undying rank you are, the settlement follows one ten thousand year wheel.”

Chu Mu’s mouth twitched and spoke, “Then my tenth era......”

Hades Fox God nodded and spoke, “Not sure if you should feel lucky or sorrow.”

“A ten thousand year period is not as long as you think. In order to preserve our lifespan, we chose to cultivate in slumber. A few hundred years just amounted to a blink of an eye. Furthermore, hasn’t the far away ten thousand year wheel arrived already?” said Yellow Spring Emperor.

“However, why is this decided by Heaven Palace? Didn’t some of those people in Heaven Palace live for tens of thousands of years?” asked Chu Mu.

“Because as long as they covered Crimson Sol, only they can obtain energy, while we can no longer obtain any resources to maintain our lifespan. Of course, we can also plunder, but the price will be the energy source that living things relied on to survive. Crimson Sol no longer provides the source, the world is in a whitering state. If us Undying rank still plunder, it’s the same as using your own race’s lives to exchange for your own life. Then, when all living beings perish and we cannot obtain any more energy, we will die in despair,” said Yellow Spring Emperor.

Hearing Yellow Spring Emperor’s explanation, Chu Mu frowned.

Would Heaven Palace really dare to keep covering Crimson Sol and destroy the living world?”

If they really did that, they would really be too crazy!

“Undying rank’s normal lifespan is about one thousand years. You still have a long lifespan now, but after a thousand years, you must plunder the resources in human territory to sustain your life,” supplemented Hades Fox God, “You should know how strong an Undying rank is. In order to sustain this power, for every one year you extend your lifespan, you require the resources to sustain a hundred billion servant rank creatures.”

“A hundred billion servant rank creatures......” Chu Mu drew a sharp breath.

This data was simply too enormous!

“That’s fundamentally ten years of lifespan for all creatures in your New Moon Land,” said Hades Fox God calmly. Seemingly to give Chu Mu some time to digest the information, it especially waited for a while before asking Chu Mu, “Are you willing to let your kin die in order to live for ten more years?”

Chu Mu shook his head.

His own lifespan already had a thousand years. It was impossible for him to let his future generations go extinct in order to live ten more years.

However, Chu Mu noticed a problem immediately. He turned his gaze to look at Yellow Spring Emperor and Hades Fox God......

They should also have a thousand years of lifespan, but they had existed for thousands of years. Did they survive until now with the lives of their own race as the price?

“This exchange only happens during Solar Eclipse. Normally, we can directly obtain energy from Crimson Sol to extend our lifespan. Of course, taking too much resource will cause imbalance to the ecology. So we would choose to slumber most of the time to reduce the exhaustion of lifespan,” said Yellow Spring Emperor.

Chu Mu nodded and understood the general concept.

Heaven Palace held control over Crimson Sol. They held the authority to let the energy in the world wither and exterminate all living things. The extermination included the Undying rank which had a normal lifespan of a thousand years.

In other words, if Undying rank experts opposed Heaven Palace to the end, the result would definitely be the continued existence of Heaven Palace while all living things in the world perished. When all rebels died, Heaven Palace would open up Crimson Sol again to let the world enter the next cycle. It could be said as a new start.

If they did not want this to happen, Undying rank experts had to accept Heaven Palace’s ten thousand year wheel invitation. Even though they knew it was a trap, they still had to go......

As for how to handle these powerful Undying rank, it would be decided by the wheel’s strongest.

“Then how many of us ten era’s strongest can survive?” asked Chu Mu.

“Nine, fourth era’s strongest has not successfully reached Undying rank. He is not amongst the invitation,” said Hades Fod God.

“At least half will be eliminated. The wheel’s strongest chosen amongst us will stay in Heaven Palace and not descend into the living world again,” said Hades Fox God.
