Chapter 351: Chapter 227: Consecutive Kills, Bloody Demon Tree Warriors

Translator: 549690339

“Oo”

The Demon Tree Warrior roared in anger, its Demon Wood roots and Piercing Branches simultaneously siphoning the life force of the three elemental soul pets, their vitality rapidly fading!

As their vitality diminished, so too did their combat power. The three elemental soul pets’ speed in chanting spells grew slower and slower, and the power of the skills they could cast became weaker.

But the Demon Tree Warrior continued to siphon their life force, gradually regaining its strength as the attacks from the three elemental soul pets weakened!

“How is that possible?!” Swarthy Brother Jiang’s eyes suddenly widened, watching in disbelief as the severely injured Demon Tree Warrior gradually recovered.

The other two were similarly stunned, never having expected that the Demon Tree Warrior could actually drain the life force of their elemental soul pets.

“But… you said that elemental world soul pets have no blood to be drained…” The soul pet master without a Bloodsucking Wood Demon pet looked accusingly at Old Zheng.

Old Zheng’s expression was extremely bizarre. Bloodsucking Wood Demons could only drain the blood of soul pets from the Beast and Plant Worlds, as only soul pets of those worlds had blood vessels and blood to maintain their lives.

Elemental world soul pets were born purely from their corresponding elemental materials, without internal organs, blood vessels, or physical bodies. Under these circumstances, they should not be able to have their blood drained at all.

However, what none of them could explain was how the Demon Tree Warrior was able to drain even their elemental soul pets and transform their life force into its own, recovering at a visibly rapid pace!

Standing atop the tree crown, Chu Mu watched as the Demon Tree Warrior rapidly absorbed the life force of the three elemental soul pets and converted it into its own vitality. The spell he was about to cast died on his lips, and he looked at the Demon Tree Warrior with a mix of astonishment and curiosity.

“Ah, I remember now! Young Master, I know what this skill is!” Suddenly, Master Li’s voice resounded inside Chu Mu’s mind.

“What skill?” Chu Mu was also quite surprised, as the Blood Siphon he knew of could indeed only drain the blood of soul pets from the Demon Beast and Plant Worlds. When the Demon Tree Warrior had pierced its branches into ordinary trees earlier, it seemed to have drained their life force as well.

“Life Siphon! It’s one of the most powerful siphoning abilities. As long as it is a living being, even if it’s not a soul pet, their life force can be siphoned and transformed into the user’s own vitality.” Master Li explained.

“Life Siphon?” Chu Mu heard this skill name for the first time. As his gaze fell on the Demon Tree Warrior, he was surprised to discover that it had already recovered half of its combat power. The three elemental soul pets, on the other hand, were nearly depleted of their life force, with the weakest one, the Storm Spirit, having its body entirely drained!

“Young Master, Life Siphon’s speed is much faster than Blood Siphon. It’s usually determined by the strength of the life force of the creature being siphoned. Your Demon Tree Warrior’s life force is probably about twice that of a normal soul pet. So, when it siphons, it can absorb about ten percent of that double life force in just one second. That ten percent is equivalent to twenty percent of a normal soul pet’s life force. If the Demon Tree Warrior’s life force were as strong as your Mo Ye, which is six times that of a normal soul pet, then in one second, it could siphon nearly sixty percent of a normal soul pet’s life force!” Master Li elaborated.

After Master Li’s lengthy explanation, Chu Mu was still somewhat confused and didn’t fully grasp the speed of Life Siphon.

Master Li rolled his eyes and said, “In short, the siphoning speed is one-tenth of the Demon Tree Warrior’s life force limit per second. This means that, as the Demon Tree Warrior’s life force increases, its siphoning damage will also increase!”

“Your Demon Tree Warrior is siphoning the life force of all three elemental soul pets at once, which means it’s recovering thirty percent of its life force per second. The enemy’s elemental soul pets, in contrast, are losing one-tenth of the Demon Tree Warrior’s total life force per second. Under these circumstances, they would be unable to kill this old Demon Tree!” Master Li laughed triumphantly.

With Master Li’s messy explanation, Chu Mu finally understood the power of Life Siphon. As long as the Demon Tree Warrior’s life force was stronger, it meant the speed of Life Siphon would be faster. Even if it was always recovering at a rate of one-tenth per second, that one-tenth life force could equal half of a normal soul pet’s life force when the Demon Tree Warrior’s life force was large enough!

Eventually, the Demon Tree Warrior recovered two-thirds of its combat power. By then, the three elemental soul pets had almost completely lost their vitality. With a furious cry, the Demon Tree Warrior used its Piercing Branches to violently throw the Storm Spirit and Dark Elf out.

The Storm Spirit and Dark Elf had already lost most of their vitality, and this throw was enough to end their lives!

Soon, the feedback of their soul contracts breaking was relayed back to the two soul pet masters’ souls, wounding them and causing their faces to turn deathly pale!

The swarthy leader reacted slightly faster than the others, but the Demon Tree Warrior’s roots had already ignored the flames and bound the Flame Spirit tightly. The continuous penetration of the Demonic Tree Roots made it impossible for the frail Flame Spirit to withstand any longer.

“Return quickly!” Swarthy Brother Jiang finally finished the return spell, but he was still a step too slow. The Flame Spirit was yanked away by the bloodthirsty Demon Tree Warrior’s roots without being covered by the soul contract spell. Soon, almost seventy demonic tree roots pierced through it, and the Flame Spirit’s life force began to fade at a rate of fifteen percent per second.

The flames on its body gradually extinguished, and in the end, the Flame Spirit could not escape the terrifying Life Siphon ability. It transformed into a tiny speck of fire, which was completely extinguished after a gust of wind from the depths of the forest blew over it.

“Oo”

The Demon Tree Warrior’s combat power had not yet fully recovered, as its Piercing Branches swiftly aimed for the swarthy leader’s Horned Beast!

The Horned Beast had already run up to the Demon Tree Warrior. Its long horns fiercely collided with the Demon Tree Warrior’s body, creating two massive holes at the trunk of the tree!

The Demon Tree Warrior also drove its roots firmly into the ground to keep itself from being moved. When the Horned Beast charged at it, the Demon Wood on its body suddenly grew, transforming into flexible vines that tightly bound the Horned Beast!

When Swarthy Brother Jiang saw his Horned Beast being trapped, he didn’t reveal much panic. The Horned Beast’s outer skin defense was very high, and even the Bloodsucking Wood Demon’s attack couldn’t easily break through it. As long as its defense was sufficient, it would prevent the Demon Tree Warrior’s roots and piercing branches from penetrating its blood vessels, making it impossible to siphon its life force!

However, this Soul Pet Master was too naive.

His Bloodsucking Wood Demon possessed a low-grade Blood Demon Wood Crystal. Its limited attack power naturally couldn’t break through the Horned Beast’s defenses.

On the other hand, Chu Mu’s Demon Tree Warrior had already absorbed Intermediate Demon Wood. Although it couldn’t be said that this Demon Wood could easily tear the Horned Beast’s defense, penetrating it wasn’t too difficult either!

“Argh”

Suddenly, the Horned Beast let out an extremely painful scream. This scream instantly made Swarthy Brother Jiang’s face turn pale, and he watched as his Horned Beast was brutally impaled by the Demon Tree Warrior’s Demon Wood!

The Horned Beast still had a relatively high vitality, but it was quickly drained by the Demon Tree Warrior. Its life force was rapidly disappearing, being converted into the Demon Tree Warrior’s health.

The Horned Beast was tightly bound by the Demon Tree Warrior, and it could only continuously stomp its short hooves. As its life force deteriorated, the Horned Beast’s body rapidly shriveled up…

The swarthy leader naturally couldn’t just watch as his soul pet was sucked dry. He quickly recited the Soul Contract Spell and summoned his third soul pet to rescue the Horned Beast.

“Ghost Monarch, Death Blade!”

Chu Mu revealed a cold smile. Taking advantage of the moment when this guy was panicking and reciting the spell, he seized the opportunity to command the long-hidden Ghost Dome King to launch an attack!

The Ghost Dome King had a ghost attribute, and it could hide itself unconsciously in the dark, shadowy areas with heavy Yin Qi. Swarthy Brother Jiang had no idea it was there!

Death Blade!! Level 6 Ghost Soul Technique!!

The Ghost Dome King had already completed the King Ghost Transformation. Its power doubled, making it even more terrifying than a Seventh-rank beast type Soul Pet. As the Death Blade swept by, it even split the beams of light that poured through the gaps in the leaves into two!

“Swish!!!!!!!”

The Ghost Dome King’s skill was extremely dominant, not giving Swarthy Brother Jiang a chance to recite the spell. The Death Blade slashed through his neck from the side!!!

The skull rolled away and a clump of dead energy enveloped the severed neck. Moments later, bright red blood spurted from his neck, splashing all over the ground!

The ghostly sword aura of Death Blade did not die down as the man fell. It even grazed Old Zheng’s arm. Unprepared, Old Zheng’s arm was corroded by the black gas, showing signs of severe necrosis!

Swarthy Brother Jiang couldn’t even scream before his skull hit the ground, followed by his lifeless body. The blood pooled, staining the ground around him red.

Old Zheng let out a painfully miserable cry, rolling on the ground while clutching his corroded arm. The beast soul pet he had just summoned charged directly towards the Ghost Dome King!

Although the Ghost Dome King was only at the Fifth Rank and Eighth Stage, any Commander below the Seventh Rank couldn’t contend with this powerful Monarch-level Soul Pet. Without even reciting a spell, the Ghost Dome King’s gaze shifted, and a massive rock burst forth like a mountain, fiercely knocking that soul pet away!

The King Ghost Curved Sword slashed down, and a sharp ghostly aura sliced through the soul pet’s abdomen before it could even land. Unable to let out a single wail, the soul pet’s body was sliced in half, and its flesh turned into black gas, leaving only its chilling bones to fall to the ground.

“Roar, Roar, Roar!!!!!!” Battle, whose strength had risen to the Sixth Rank, Third-stage, let out a roar full of deterrence. Its Sky-Splitting Claw fiercely tore the last mad beast to pieces.

Despite being covered in wounds, Battle resolved the fight against the three mad beasts with its six-fold life force and its powerful self-healing ability. It didn’t even use Limb Regeneration once!
