The Eerie Child's Voice in the Mountains

However, Chen Xuan had them in abundance.

He possessed so many Spirit Herbs and Fruits.

They would inevitably arouse the greed of other Phantasmal Beasts.

Of course, Chen Xuan had considered this long ago.

So he used the Shapeshifting Tanuki to disguise them.

From outside, it was impossible to sense even the slightest trace of the aura given off by these Spirit Herbs and Fruits.

Moreover, Chen Xuan had subdued many Phantasmal Beasts throughout the courtyard to stand guard there.

Even the lowest-level Phantasmal Beasts had already reached Gold Rank Five.

There were even more than a dozen Platinum Rank Phantasmal Beasts among them.

Chen Xuan believed that even if a Diamond Grade Phantasmal Beast came,

it could easily be left behind.

Of course!

In this place, such a high-level Phantasmal Beast generally would not appear anyway.

And with the Shapeshifting Tanuki's disguise, the other Phantasmal Beasts could not discover the things here at all.

"Wuu-ah, wuu-ah!"

The Phantasmal Beasts cried out as they crowded around Chen Xuan.

"Don't rush, everyone. There's enough for all of you!"

He smiled and handed Spirit Fruits to the Phantasmal Beasts.

They ate with great relish.

Even the Nine Heavens Wind-Rain Dragon obediently stayed there.

It had never imagined that there would be so many treasures in this courtyard.

Of course!

These Phantasmal Beasts were all under Chen Xuan's command.

Unless Chen Xuan took the initiative to give them those things, they did not dare to steal them.

"Very good. Eat more—you'll grow faster!"

Chen Xuan had never been stingy, either.

A faint glow radiated from the bodies of the Phantasmal Beasts.

Their bodies continued to grow.

Their auras also grew stronger.

"Rumor has it that an evolution resource, the Ink Spirit Heart, has appeared in Violet Volcano Valley. Acquisition difficulty: difficult. Proceed there immediately?"

"The Ink Spirit Heart? That's a high-level evolution resource. Many Phantasmal Beasts can use it to evolve!"

"Looks like I'll have to make a trip."

Looking at the system's prompt, Chen Xuan grew excited.

Chapter Twenty-One: The Eerie Child's Voice in the Mountains

"An Azure Bamboo Sprite?"

"To think I'd actually get to see such a rare Phantasmal Beast!"

On the outskirts of Gu Zhou City,

in the area near the edge of the Azure Dragon Mountains,

many Beast Tamers were heading toward the Azure Dragon Mountains.

Among them was a young girl dressed in purple.

Looking at the strange Phantasmal Beast before her, whose entire body seemed to have grown from bamboo,

Zhu Yan Hua's phoenix eyes were filled with astonishment.

They said there were countless kinds of Phantasmal Beasts in the world,

and this kind of Phantasmal Beast was particularly special.

The Azure Bamboo Sprite!

Its entire body resembled emerald bamboo.

It looked like a matchstick figure pieced together from bamboo.

Beneath the green bamboo leaves was a pair of bright eyes.

If it blended into a bamboo forest,

it truly would be very difficult to discover.

"It's said that this Phantasmal Beast is a Domain Phantasmal Beast. It can transform the surrounding area into a bamboo forest!"

"Looks like this entire bamboo forest was created by its energy!"

Looking at the woods filled with emerald bamboo,

Zhu Yan Hua narrowed her beautiful eyes.

Purple light flickered faintly across her face.

"What a pity. This Phantasmal Beast isn't what I need!"

"The Ink Spirit Grass. I have to find the Ink Spirit Grass!"

A trace of pain appeared in Zhu Yan Hua's expression.

Although she led her own Phantasmal Beasts,

she still entered the Azure Dragon Mountains.

"Damn, a Spiked-Back Tiger!"

"Run! It's a Phantasmal Beast at Silver Rank Five or higher!"

"We're no match for it!"

In another area,

a group of people were being chased by a tiger whose back was covered in sharp spikes.

The tiger stood two meters tall and was several meters long.

Roar!

Its enormous jaws opened, and it bit to death a Phantasmal Beast brought by one of the Beast Tamers.

"Gulding! Damn you! How dare you kill my Gulding? I'll fight you to the death!"

"Idiot, don't! You're no match for it!"

"Ah!"

The next moment!

A bloodcurdling scream rang out.

Only half of a Beast Tamer's body remained.

"Hahaha, a Bright Sun Flower Fruit! I found a Bright Sun Flower Fruit! This is a Level Two Spirit Fruit. I'm rich now!"

A Beast Tamer laughed uproariously after discovering a scarlet flower halfway up the mountain slope, with a fiery-red fruit growing atop it.

Yet the next moment!

A crowd of heads surged out.

Wuu-wuu-wuu!

A group of Phantasmal Beasts let out low, guttural growls.

They revealed savage gazes as they stared at the Beast Tamer.

"Ah!"

The next moment!

That Beast Tamer's scream echoed through heaven and earth.

Far away!

After hearing the Beast Tamer's scream,

the other Beast Tamers all looked in terror toward the direction from which the sound had come.

Deep within the mountains.
