Chapter 607: Chu Family Colorful City, Hidden Famine
At Chu Mu's current speed, if he directly controlled the Night Thunder Dream Beast, he would be able to reach the Chu family in about a month.
However, Chu Mu chose a mountain range that no one dared to walk in the entire Zhanli Realm and the Western Realm.
The mountain range is the Xi Zhan Mountain Range. This is an out-and-out big mythical world. Because the resources in the mountain range are rich, the stages of various soul pets in it are very high, and the ethnic groups are overrun. If you are not careful, you will encounter hundreds of people.
Thousands of soul pet groups.
It is best for the Mystery Realm to have a certain level, so that it can meet the training needs of soul pet masters of different levels, and this mountain range belongs to the irregular distribution of these two realms, and does not have enough strength.
Crossing is bound to be a narrow escape.
Since Chu Mu plans to find a spiritual object that can elevate his soul pet to the peak monarch level, this mountain range is rich in resources and has become an area for Chu Mu to practice.
...Chu Mu is different from other experienced soul pet masters. Most experienced soul pet masters avoid encountering ethnic soul pets.
Chu Mu just went to the place where the group was densely packed. If the scale of the battle did not exceed thousands, Chu Mu himself would have felt a little unsatisfied.
After all, Xijie and Zhanlijie are small places, and there are not many high-level soul pets. Naturally, Chu Mu can only rely on numbers to give his soul pets sufficient combat training.
A month of training passed quickly, and Chu Mu also obtained a level 10 wood soul crystal. This level 10 wood soul crystal was perfect for strengthening the Demon Tree Warrior.
Of course, now that the spiritual object is available, if the Demonic Tree Warrior is strengthened now, the Demonic Tree Warrior may not be able to improve. It will take at least two more months, otherwise this level 10 wood soul crystal will most likely fail.
During the month in this mountain range, Chu Mu would often ask the little Hidden Dragon to bully some weak creatures. Whenever the Little Hidden Dragon fought, Mo Xie would follow him and act as a bodyguard to avoid any accidents.
.
After continuous battles, the little Hidden Dragon grew very quickly. When Chu Mu left this mountain range, the Little Hidden Dragon had already reached the eighth level.
Chu Mu previously estimated that it would take two months for the little Hidden Dragon to reach the second level, but now it has only been one month and it has reached the eighth level, which shows the effect of continuous fighting.
...Another month later, Chu Mu stepped into the land of the Western Border and the Western Region.
Xicheng is the territorial city of the Western Region. After Chu Mu walked out of the mountains, Chu Mu began to inquire about the Chu family.
Since the Chu family can expand its business to Zhanlijie, it is definitely no longer as simple as a family in an eighth-level city. It should now be somewhat famous in a tenth-level city.
Sure enough, after Chu Mu made some inquiries, he soon received the news that there was indeed a Chu family in the Western Regions, which was considered a first-class family in the Western Regions. Even in the cities of the Western Regions, the Chu family's properties were owned.
The person who manages the industry in this west city is Chu Lang, who had participated in the family competition with Chu Mu.
Chu Lang is an open-minded person, and his strength is relatively high among the young people of the Chu family. It is said that his current strength is also ranked among the top among the young people in the Western Region.
In the soul pet stage, the level improvement relies on continuous combat training on the one hand, and the assistance of spiritual animals on the other hand. If the Chu family's business has become bigger now, the younger generation must also be able to obtain a lot of resources, and their strength must be the same as today's.
Not what it used to be.
The Chu family's property in Xicheng is the trading of crystal stones. The effectiveness of crystal stones is equivalent to that of soul crystals. Soul crystals are more valuable than gold coins and never depreciate. Although Chu Mu doesn't know much about the economy and industry, he also understands that the Chu family can
Taking over the crystal stone business is definitely not comparable to that of the small family in the eighth-level city.
From this point of view, the original choice of family migration was very correct. The family has now clearly broken through the original development restrictions and is thriving.
Chu Mu arrived at Zhongxin Street and quickly found a four-story crystal shop.
As soon as Chu Mu entered the store, a clerk ran over in a friendly manner and said fluently:
"Objectively speaking, our store has all kinds of crystals of all major elements. The first floor has crystals of one to two levels, the second floor has crystals of three to four levels, the third floor has crystals of five to six levels, and the fourth floor... I don't know.
What grade of crystal is objectively needed, and in terms of price, I guarantee objective satisfaction..."
"Is your store manager Chu Lang?" Chu Mu asked directly.
Chu Mu doesn't like things in the tenth-level hierarchy now, unless they appear in large quantities.
"Yes, Master Chu is on the fourth floor. Does the guest have any big business to discuss with Master Chu? If so, I will report it immediately. If it is anything else, I can only let the guest wait for a while."
The clerk is pretty good at talking.
Of course, the clerk mainly saw a noble and beautiful little nine-tailed fox lying on Chu Mu's shoulder. Such a soul pet is probably extremely expensive just for its appearance, so this person must be someone with status.
.
Chu Mu thought for a while, and it seemed that he had just obtained a lot of soul crystals after going on a killing spree in the mountains. The ones in the crystals were just right to be disposed of.
"I have hundreds of soul crystals, crystal processing, take me up." Chu Mu said calmly.
The clerk was stunned when he heard this, "Thousands of dollars?"
Naturally, the clerk didn't dare to ask any more questions and hurriedly led Chu Mu to the fourth floor, thinking to himself: A big customer is here!
Chu Mu walked up the stairs, and when he reached the third floor, his soul thought caught a man's voice.
"Oh, it's not that easy. I didn't agree with the decision to locate our clan's city in Qise City. Who in the entire Western Region doesn't know that famines and other disasters will happen to that city at every turn. Our family doesn't know how to fight against those things.
How much money has been paid? Although the returns are high, the risks are too great..."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Our family was able to rise so quickly because of the resources of Qise City. Now that a problem has arisen, it must be solved." Another man's voice came out.
While talking, both of them seemed to hear footsteps and immediately stopped talking.
Walking up to the fourth floor, Chu Mu immediately saw Chu Lang, who was wearing blue clothes. Chu Lang was sitting on a chair, with a sleeping Winged Tiger lying next to him. He was probably in the eighth or ninth stage.
Next to Chu Lang was another older man. This man Chu Mu couldn't name. He should be a descendant of the collateral lineage like Chu Lang.
"This friend..." Chu Lang stood up, looked at Chu Mu, and was about to speak politely, but was surprised to find that this handsome man in white clothes looked very familiar.
Chu Mu smiled. When he entered the West City, Chu Mu asked Mr. Li to change his appearance. Although several years had passed, Chu Lang would definitely not forget Chu Mu's appearance.
Sure enough, Chu Lang was a little confused at first, but then his face gradually showed a look of astonishment and surprise!
"Chu Mu, you are Chu Mu!" Chu Lang screamed and hurriedly stepped forward!
"It's me, Chu Lang, long time no see." Chu Mu greeted him and gave Chu Lang a thick hug.
"It's really you, I...I..." Chu Lang was also so excited that he didn't know what to say.
After the Yang family was destroyed, Chu Mu proposed to move, and no one in the family saw Chu Mu again.
Chu Lang originally thought that Chu Mu, who was flying farther and higher, would never return to this small family. Unexpectedly, Chu Mu actually came back, which made Chu Lang surprised and happy.
After some pleasantries, Chu Lang also hurriedly introduced the young man next to him to Chu Mu.
The young man's name is Chu Shenghua, and he is a collateral descendant. After migrating to the Western Regions, he performed very prominently in the family. Now he is also serving as Chu Lang's deputy, helping Chu Lang manage the spar business in Xicheng.
"Chu Lang, what's the hidden danger in Qise City you just mentioned?" Chu Mu quickly got down to business.
"Ah, I was just about to say it." Chu Lang patted his head and immediately told Chu Mu about a big problem that the Chu family was facing.
It turns out that after the Chu family moved, they chose Qise City as their clan city.
Qise City is a ninth-level city, and its resources, territory, connections, and other aspects are much better than Gangluo City. Even the West City of Territory City must purchase rare resources from here.
It is precisely because of this city that the Chu family is becoming more and more prosperous and stronger.
However, this city has a huge problem, which is frequent famines.
The so-called famine does not refer to a shortage of food or the like, but a large number of soul pets like the Hibernating Famine running rampant, destroying human cities and occupying human resources.
Famines are common phenomena, but Qise City is a typical disaster-prone city. It will be ransacked by some "tribes" every few years.
At present, the Chu family has only been developing for a few years and has encountered a major disaster. If it cannot withstand it, its vitality will definitely be severely damaged.
"Young Master, if it is Qise City, it is very close to the spiritual source I mentioned. The reason why famines often occur is probably because of the existence of this spiritual source." Old Li's voice echoed in Chu Mu's mind.
Floating in the middle.
The spiritual source that Mr. Li told Chu Mu was very hidden, and the one-time output was very large, so he would definitely earn a lot of money every month in the future!
The resources in the western border are very scarce, and the monthly output is only 100 souls.
And Mr. Li said that the spiritual source has existed for many years, and the one-time output may be thousands of spirits, and the monthly output will not be less in the future. If he can capture that spiritual source and manage it well, even if Chu Mu is sitting on the
The family no longer has to worry about being unable to afford an emperor-level soul pet.
In each realm, the resources to strengthen the emperor level are extremely limited. The emperor problem of the wind-bound spirit has been solved, and the demon tree warrior can also be strengthened through the emperor wood soul crystal.
And Chu Mu also has Ye, Ice Sky Elf, Ghost King, and White Nightmare. These soul pets all have to reach the emperor level, and the only way to strengthen them is with spiritual objects.
There were so few imperial spiritual objects that Chu Mu had no way of finding them, so he could only obtain a large number of them.
Spirits are equivalent to the emperor's currency. With them, Chu Mu can exchange them with other soul emperors. Therefore, on the one hand, Chu Mu must obtain enough spirits to support his soul pets, and on the other hand, he must earn enough spirits to exchange to strengthen the emperor.
