Supreme Tamer-Chapter 614 - 485: Twilight King, Sitting on a Mountain of Corpses
Chapter 614: Chapter 485: Twilight King, Sitting on a Mountain of Corpses
(At the end of the last chapter, Zhan Ye’s strength was nearly 7 levels higher than a ten-stage commander, not just two levels higher. This has been corrected.)
Destructive Light!
Black energy burst out on the bodies of the two Thousand-leg Centipedes. The defense of these Ten-stage Commanders had already reached the ninth level, but in front of Zhan Ye, they could not withstand a single blow. The power of the destructive light easily blasted open the shells of these two centipedes, blowing apart the flesh walls inside their bodies.
“Roar!!!!!!!!!”
Zhan Ye charged, his speed completely surpassing Mo Ye. No matter how violently the numerous centipedes tried to slash him like a storm, they couldn’t harm a hair on Zhan Ye’s body. Zhan Ye easily bypassed the obstruction of these few centipedes, and his claws grazed over the bodies of the two damaged centipedes!
The sharp blades were ten meters long, and the two Thousand-leg Centipedes were torn into four pieces by Zhan Ye from their rotting parts, and soon mixed with other corpses.
After killing these two Thousand-leg Centipedes, Zhan Ye’s claws frenziedly dissected them, quickly took out their soul cores, and swallowed them in one gulp.
After crushing the Soul Core, Zhan Ye was soon besieged by the Thousand-leg Centipedes and was ruthlessly smashed into the pile of corpses.
Zhan Ye’s defense had reached the point where the Thousand-leg Centipedes were having trouble breaking through. The attacks of these centipedes only left some shallow marks on Zhan Ye’s Ink Armor, which couldn’t really hurt him. It wouldn’t take long for these shallow marks to disappear with Zhan Ye’s self-healing ability.
…
There is very limited space inside the rock barrier, and the size of the Thousand-leg Centipedes is mostly over ten meters. Now Zhan Ye’s enemies are hundreds of Ten-stage Commanders.
In fact, the entire rock barrier can only accommodate the movement and attack of 20 Ten-stage Commanders at most. Too many would mean the centipedes would have their bodies tangled with their companions.
If 100 Thousand-leg Centipedes were to simultaneously launch their skills and attack Zhan Ye, it may cause considerable damage to him. But the rock barrier provided Zhan Ye with natural protection, so he didn’t have to face so many enemies at once. frёewebnoѵēl.com
As long as the battle remained within Zhan Ye’s ability, his strength would gradually increase.
The periphery of the Abyss was where the weakest centipedes were, while the deeper parts were where the stronger ones resided. Moreover, the number of Thousand-leg Centipedes was limited, which was equivalent to constantly feeding Zhan Ye, who possessed the insane abilities of Limb Regeneration and Courageous Sting Heart Skills. Zhan Ye’s strength grew step by step!
However, no skill can be perfect. Limb Regeneration is a skill that rapidly heals severe injuries while restoring vitality, but physical and stamina would not be fully recovered.
Zhan Ye’s explosive battle and strength didn’t come out of nowhere. His physical strength had reached its limit, and casting each skill required powerful soul crystals to support it.
Among the 100 Thousand-leg Centipedes, only two soul crystals appeared, and even the ninth-level Soul Crystal was not enough for the increasingly exhausted Zhan Ye.
After killing each Thousand-leg Centipede, Zhan Ye would not hesitate to swallow their Soul Cores to maintain his physical strength.
In fact, Zhan Ye had already killed many Soul Crystals. It could be said that these Soul Crystals were the real energy that kept Zhan Ye fighting.
…
Finally, when more than a hundred corpses were stacked behind the rock barrier, Zhan Ye’s physical strength gradually started to deplete.
Zhan Ye had been in an exhausted state for a while. The reason he could continue up to now was entirely due to the occasional soul crystals. These soul crystals were like stimulants to Zhan Ye’s body, constantly encouraging Zhan Ye to exhaust all energy in his body while providing him with the physical ability to release his skills. However, the battles could not continue due to the Soul Crystals…
…
On top of the giant mountain in the blue sky, the pale-faced Pan Zheng rode his winged soul pet as his eyes looked down at the entire giant mountain.
To the side of Pan Zheng was the equally gloomy Ling He. Ling He had lost a medium-level Monarch soul pet. This was undoubtedly a severe blow to someone at the peak of the young generation. At least now, Ling He was no longer qualified to compete with Sitian of Soul Covenant!
“The Lady Sovereign left with Shen Yicheng. I don’t understand why she kept that useless person and left him behind,” Pan Zheng said.
Pan Zheng suffered the loss of two main pets, a deadly blow for a Soul Pet Master. But Pan Zheng still served the Female Sovereign, because as long as he gained her appreciation, getting a powerful Monarch-level Soul Pet would not be a problem, and he might even receive a high-level Monarch!
The fluctuations in strength for any Soul Pet Master can be enormous. Having low moments doesn’t mean much for those who aim higher. Soul Pet Masters can continue searching for new soul pets and re-cultivating them after a few years when their souls have recovered.
A soul pets trainer’s ability to train soul pets will only get more proficient. Once they understand how to train, it will become much easier to bring a juvenile pet to the ninth stage. It will be much easier than before.
Ling He lost an Intermediate Monarch, but he had the same mindset as Pan Zheng. Once their plans were completed, they would receive their precious High-level Monarchs!
The difference in strength between medium-level Monarchs and high-level Monarchs is two levels apart, but for many soul pets, this is a challenging gap to overcome, because of their low species ranking.
The Yang Unicorn is an Intermediate Commander. Although its qualifications are excellent, it has reached the limit due to its race’s natural constraints. Ling He has repeatedly purchased spirit items to help the Fiery Sun Rhinoceros reach the High-level Monarch, but they have not succeeded. In this case, a true high-level Monarch becomes even more important, because it is more likely to evolve into a Peak Monarch, or even an Emperor-level!
Pan Zheng had always complained about Shen Yicheng who seemed to be half-dead. He didn’t understand why the Female Sovereign took him to the end of this mysterious world, while leaving the two of them behind to intercept Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou.
Ling He listened to Pan Zheng’s nonsense without uttering a word. In fact, he sneered in his heart. Because in his opinion, Pan Zheng, who had lost his Dual Spirit, was now just as useless. His role in the upcoming passage through realms was minimal, and this guy didn’t seem to realize that he would be abandoned by Shen Yicheng just like Pan Zheng.
“We found some footprints east of the Giant Mountain, which were left not long ago.” A Green-clothed Killer, riding a Winged Soul Pet, flew to Ling He to report.
“What kind of footprints?” Pan Zheng asked.
“It seems to be footprints of a Nine-tailed Flame Fox.” The killer replied.
“Finally, they’ve exposed a weakness. Go and catch up!” Ling He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and ordered his Winged Soul Pet to fly in the direction the killer had mentioned.

Centipede Abyss
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Loud crashing noises sounded, waking up the extremely exhausted Zhan Ye, who was lying on a small mountain of corpses.
The rock barrier that protected Zhan Ye was trembling constantly, and deep, profound cracks appeared. These cracks constantly expanded, almost covering the entire rock barrier!
Zhan Ye’s vision gradually blurred, for its injuries were not fatal and its vitality had recovered to about 60% due to self-healing.
However, it was unable to muster any more strength to fight. After completely exhausting itself in battle, its body began to degenerate…
The process of degradation was when Zhan Ye’s strength gradually diminished. It was evident that the rhinoceros mark on Zhan Ye’s body was becoming dimmer.
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The sound of the rocks crashing resounded again, and Zhan Ye knew that an even more powerful thousand-leg centipede had appeared. The creature was gigantic, so large that it was starting to feel that the rock barrier would hinder its movements, so it wouldn’t be long before the protective barrier around Zhan Ye would be shattered.
Once the rock barrier was shattered, the space available for the thousand-leg centipedes would be even larger. Dozens or even hundreds of them would be able to cast their skills simultaneously at Zhan Ye. No matter how powerful Zhan Ye was, it would eventually face death.
Most Soul Pets, when they’re close to death or aging, desire to return to the place where they were born, hide in the dust and obey the law of dying where they were born.
However, the unique survival rules of the Mo Ye race meant their outcomes were completely different, especially for those abandoned at birth. They were natural wanderers, with no attachment to their place of birth. Their destiny was to fight, and the piled-up corpses of their enemies would become their most glorious graveyard.
Zhan Ye felt that it was nearing the end of its life, but this mountain of corpses more than twenty meters high, oozing with pus and blood, was a satisfying tomb for Zhan Ye.
The only regret was that it couldn’t let this person witness its most glorious moment…
Zhan Ye had gained the one thing it had been lacking throughout its life from Chu Mu. That thing was not a protective Soul Pet Space for resting when exhausted, but Chu Mu’s unquestioning trust in Zhan Ye’s strength, and the genuine respect for Zhan Ye’s spirit. What Zhan Ye needed was this sincere trust and respect.
Therefore, it was willing to sacrifice itself for this Soul Pet Master without any complaints.
…
“Bang!”
With a resounding crash, the rocks finally broke apart, and Zhan Ye even heard the echo of the shattering rock barrier.
Zhan Ye slowly closed its eyes, knowing that the shattering of the barrier marked the end of its life, and it had already accomplished much more than many Tenth Rank Mo Ye, lying among hundreds of thousand-leg centipede corpses!
Zhan Ye’s consciousness was blurred due to exhaustion, and it couldn’t even feel that the sound of the rocks breaking apart was actually coming from behind it…
The rock barrier wasn’t the one that shattered. Instead, it was the stone wall behind Zhan Ye.
At a height of ten meters behind Zhan Ye, a large piece of rock broke apart, revealing a rock tunnel that came from an unknown place.
And at the entrance of the tunnel stood a man – it was Chu Mu!
The moment Chu Mu entered, he saw countless centipede corpses piled up like a mountain!
This was a scene that shook Chu Mu’s heart to the core!!
At the top of the mountain of corpses that filled the rock barrier’s space, Zhan Ye lay there silently. Its back appeared desolate but proud, as if it was a dying king who still commanded his own kingdom. (To be continued.
