Supreme Tamer-Chapter 485: 358: Mysterious Rear Desert Area, No One Has Set Foot

рlease reading οn Β?XΝOVEL.?ΟM

In the north of the Ancient Wasteland lies a vast and desolate desert.

This land, completely covered in yellow sand and dust, doesn’t have the fierce gusts of the Ancient Wasteland. Instead, it has unbearable hot sun and raging flames.

Golden sand dunes, golden sun, and golden sands stretch across this land. Upon entering, one can’t help but notice the almost nonexistent mix of colors. At the edge of the horizon, the pure blue sky forms a distinct dividing line with the world of golden sands, creating an enormously magnificent natural painting that is awe-inspiring and magnificent.

However, under this still beauty, what dangers are hidden…

Chu Mu found a refuge in the Ancient Wasteland and rested there for seven days. Afterward, it took him another seven days to step onto this steaming hot sand-filled land.

Opening the map, Chu Mu stared at the large area of yellow marked on it and suddenly felt that holding the map was useless. His surroundings were all the same sandy landscape, making it impossible to use any object as a reference point, and it was even more difficult to determine his location on the map.

“A thousand Desert Mad Edge Scorpions… I wonder how long this battle will last…” Chu Mu put down the map, his gaze fixed on the far end of the yellow desert.

Besides yellow sands in Chu Mu’s eyes, there wasn’t any sight of soul pets. The map couldn’t confirm Chu Mu’s position, so he could only move straight forward and perhaps stumble into the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion’s territory.

The reward description mentioned that the desert in the northern part of the Ancient Wasteland had limited soul pet species. The Desert Mad Edge Scorpions were the native inhabitants of this sandy domain, and as long as one ventured deep into the desert, they could be seen wandering the sands.

“Yi”

A fierce cry suddenly echoed above in the sky, and a massive winged soul pet soared across the azure sky, leaving behind a red trail…

Chu Mu raised his head, glanced at the red-winged soul pet soaring in the blue sky, and lowered his gaze to the laborious yellow sand…

“It seems that having a winged soul pet is also very necessary.” Chu Mu muttered to himself.

“Wu wu” Mo Ye nodded in agreement. Mo Ye thought that if Chu Mu had a winged soul pet, it could also stand on the head of the winged soul pet in Chu Lian’s form and fly in the sky while being tied to the wind. This should be quite enjoyable.

Chu Mu could control Mo Ye, the Night Thunder Dream Beast, and Zhan Ye. The Night Thunder Dream Beast and Zhan Ye both had dark attributes, which were very unsuited to this scorching hot desert. Therefore, Chu Mu was riding Mo Ye through the desert.

The desert heat had no effect on the fire-attribute Mo Ye, while Mo Ye’s stamina was far worse than the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s. In the evening, Chu Mu would still have to switch to the Night Thunder Dream Beast to carry him forward.

“We might have to stay here for a long time, I hope the strength of these Desert Mad Edge Scorpions is not too terrifying.” Chu Mu said to Mo Ye.

“Wu wu~ wu wu~” Mo Ye expressed its desire to return to the city and soak in a comfortable hot bath, in order to wash away the stench from its body.

After one sand dune, there was another, endless and unchanging. Chu Mu felt like he had fallen into a completely identical world where the initial awe and appreciation of the desert landscape gradually turned into perplexity.

At first, seeing the same thing along a direction would bring some surprise or infatuation with the unique scenery. However, after walking for a day and only seeing the yellow sand, it not only caused visual fatigue but also made people feel as if they were lost in an endless place. In turn, this also led to an inexplicable sense of panic.

“Wu wu wu”

The next day, Mo Ye had become listless. There was nothing more monotonous and dull than walking in the sand. As it walked, Mo Ye’s head hung low while slowly supporting its body to move forward.

Chu Mu didn’t ride Mo Ye, but he walked on foot. Comparatively, Chu Mu’s mental state was relatively normal. Now, Chu Mu’s soul power had recovered to its full state, and the desert temperature had almost no effect on him either.

Chu Mu’s soul had always been in a high-temperature state, and he was used to this torment. The external heat seemed insignificant in comparison.

“Zhi zhi”

Suddenly, a faint sound came from a certain direction!

Hearing the sound, Mo Ye’s ears immediately perked up. Its dim eyes emitted a gleam as it turned its head and searched for the source of the sound.

Chu Mu also heard the sound. After releasing his Soul Sense, he quickly locked onto a creature slowly emerging from the yellow sand beneath the sand dune he was walking on!

Chu Mu felt a surge of joy as the creature emerging from the sand to bask in the sun was a Desert Mad Edge Scorpion with gray horns and armor!

After walking for so long, he finally encountered a Desert Mad Edge Scorpion, which also meant that he was now very close to the habitat of these creatures!

“Mo Ye, go and stretch your muscles!” Chu Mu knew that Mo Ye was so bored that he almost fell asleep, so he gave Mo Ye an order to directly attack the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion.

The Desert Mad Edge Scorpion was probably at the eighth stage and fourth level, not much different from Mo Ye’s stage. However, Mo Ye was a monarch, while the Mad Edge Scorpion was only a commander. Killing it would be child’s play for Mo Ye.

“Wuuuuuu”

Mo Ye, extremely excited, let out a cry, took a step forward, and stepped on the crown flame with a mix of red and pinkish hues, sprinting down the hill. His nine long silver tails fluttered as Mo Ye ran, elegant and noble, yet carrying the wild nature of a fox monarch!

An eighth-stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpion can stretch up to five meters long, and if it stands up, its height would be around two meters. Its body is covered with a layer of hard, metal-like gray armor. There are prominent gray edges on its pincers, forelimbs, hindlimbs, and tail, and the edges are lined with gray bone spurs.

There is almost no part of a Desert Mad Edge Scorpion’s body that isn’t a weapon. The most frightening thing is its red scorpion tail, which looks like several thick chains twisted together. The hook at the end is dark red, indicating that it is highly poisonous. Once it cuts the skin, the toxin will invade the body of the soul pet.

The reward notice states that the power of the Mad Edge Scorpion’s poison varies with its stage! Fox Elder had also informed Chu Mu that the poison of the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion was at least third level, equivalent to Ice Crystal and Ran Wood power crystals.

To come here, Chu Mu had brought at least a hundred bottles of antidote, so he was not particularly worried about the toxicity issue.

“How many doses of poison can I collect if I kill an eighth-stage Desert Mad Edge Scorpion?” Chu Mu asked Fox Elder.

“Probably just one.” Fox Elder replied.

Chu Mu was speechless. If it was true that killing one eighth stage Mad Edge Scorpion could only collect one dose of poison, would he not have to kill a thousand eighth stage Mad Edge Scorpions in the desert?

The Desert Mad Edge Scorpions are not as common as those servant-level soul pets, and you won’t see a congregation of thousands of scorpions everywhere in the desert. Not to mention how long it would take to kill a thousand eighth-stage Mad Edge Scorpions, simply finding a thousand Desert Mirage Scorpions might take months or even longer…

“There’s no easy way to complete a Level Eight reward, young master. If you want to complete this reward quickly, you can continue to venture deeper into the desert, where there is a place filled with Desert Mad Edge Scorpions,” said the Fox Elder.

“What place?” Chu Mu remembered that the map had not marked any special places in this desert, but the Fox Elder’s tone seemed to suggest that he knew something.

“This desert is divided into two regions, the Front Sand Domain and the Rear Desert Area. The Front Sand Domain is the area known to people and is occasionally entered by Soul Pet Masters. The Rear Desert Area, on the other hand, belongs to the most terrifying territory of this Eighth-level Mysterious Realm. Hundreds of years ago, it was the dwelling place of the Lords of the Eighth-level Mysterious Realm. Now that the Ancient Wasteland has changed its masters, the soul pets dwelling in the Rear Desert Area are still very powerful, and almost no one dares to enter. I think you should be able to see crowds of Desert Mad Edge Scorpions there, just like armies…” the Fox Elder said.

“Then, what kind of creature is the lord of the Ancient Wasteland now?” Chu Mu asked curiously.

Each Mysterious Realm Lord is almost impossible for humans to defeat. Even many high-ranking Soul Pet Masters rarely venture into a Mysterious Realm Lord’s territory unless there is indeed a huge temptation.

Of course, for those Soul Pet Masters who are stronger than the Mysterious Realm Lords and want to plunder treasures from their territory, they must pay a very painful price.

Fox Elder shook his head, indicating that he did not know what kind of creature the present lord of the Ancient Wasteland was.

“Wuuuuuu”

As Chu Mu was asking the Fox Elder about the Rear Desert Area, he suddenly heard a panicked cry from Mo Ye, then noticed that Mo Ye was sprinting up from the dune, running back to Chu Mu’s side.

“You solved it so quickly? Did you use an eighth-level skill that consumes too much energy?” Just as Chu Mu was about to lecture Mo Ye on not abusing his skills when facing weaker opponents, he quickly realized that something was wrong.

“Zziiiiiiiii”

Suddenly, the sound of the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions became louder, and Chu Mu quickly looked over to find that the sand around the scorpion had loosened significantly. More than a dozen Desert Mad Edge Scorpions emerged from the sand, their sharp and ferocious bodies gleaming under the harsh sun.

“WuuuuWuuuu”

Mo Ye was just about to kill the Desert Mad Edge Scorpion when he sensed the unusual movement beneath his feet and realized that he had entered the territory of the Desert Mad Edge Scorpions alone. Naturally, Mo Ye fled back to Chu Mu’s side, feeling aggrieved, and asked Chu Mu to summon other soul pets to fight together. (.)
