Chapter 529: Chapter 529

Having left the Griffin Great Valley far behind, they could say they were very safe for the time being.

"Lord, why did you bring this thing back? It could easily expose us. Are you planning to...?"

Lin Yucha pointed at the corpse of the Wind King Griffin and asked. The scent of neither ordinary griffin eggs nor higher-tier griffin eggs is distinctive. Griffins may excel at tracking, but if the distance is too great, they might not be able to trace the scent.

But the Wind King Griffin is so unique that if you keep it with you when you return to your territory, you might be easily exposed. Although the Griffin Great Valley is somewhat far from Mountain Town, once detected, they can launch a direct attack.

"You’re right, come down quickly and help. We’re going to transform it now, so it won’t be discovered."

Du You brought this back for his next summon. To be honest, Du You was quite fed up with Xiaozi. Although Xiaozi was fast, he didn’t fly steady.

He had to be very careful every time he rode, otherwise he could easily be thrown off.

What’s more, each time Xiaozi made a move, electricity coursed through his body. Because Xiaozi was a summoned creature, the electricity wouldn’t harm Du You, but the paralysis the electricity caused would still be felt.

Each time Xiaozi let out a discharge, Du You’s whole body would tingle—a strangely invigorating feeling. The stronger Xiaozi got, the more intense this feeling would become. Meanwhile, riding on Xiaozi’s back also hindered Xiaozi’s battle strength.

The decision was made: this time would produce another flying creature which could relieve Xiaozi, and save Du You some trouble.

Plus, the griffin was bigger and more capable of flying. A griffin this big could definitely carry three people at the same time, whereas Xiaozi still had some trouble carrying three people and was often limited by his flying speed.

This wasn’t the first time they had done something . The two sisters, along with Du You, quickly cleared out an area. A large amount of materials were prepared—it mainly needed red crystal coins, so it wasn’t too troublesome.

Du You placed the corpse of the Wind King Griffin in the magic array, took out the second-tier Dark Element Stone, and began to burn a large number of red crystal coins. Not long after, the corpse began to change.

Originally, the feathers were silver-white, but slowly they had become duller and in the end they became pitch-black. There was no choice - Du You was a Dark Shaper, and all the creatures he summoned would be transformed into dark creatures. Even if Du You wanted some other attribute, it was simply impossible—the griffin was no exception.

When the griffin took shape, Du You looked at it speechlessly; it looked similar to a large crow. Get full chapters from 𝗻𝗼𝘷𝗲𝗹•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥

Riding: Black Jade Griffin has a riding feature which when combined with the knight profession, can demonstrate even greater power.

The Wind King Griffin’s name had changed to Black Jade Griffin, and though all the skills still existed in the form of wind, they all now had a Dark Attribute tag added.

Du You gestured with his hand: "Attack over there, let’s see."

A wind immediately began to swirl around the Black Jade Griffin. Unlike ordinary wind which is green or colorless, the wind swirling around the Black Jade Griffin was black. Though there were wind elements involved, there were more dark elements.

A black wind blade flew out, slicing down a large tree in front. Then a round ball flew out, hitting the ground, and exploded instantly. Numerous wind blades swept in all directions. From the looks of it, it was more domineering than a bomb.

"As expected, it changed," Du You said, and along with the two sisters, approached for examination. The ground showed several traces of damage which looked like they had been cut by the wind blade, but in reality, they were completely different. The attack power of the wind blade seems to be about the same as usual.

But Du You knew that actually the attacking power had dropped because the Black Jade Griffin was at 10-star level. The attack power was about the same even though the star level had improved, proving that the power of Wind Blade had weakened. After all, it was originally a spell with a wind attribute, but now it had combined with dark elements, it would be weird if the power hadn’t decreased.

But the decrease only refers to the direct attack power, it didn’t mean the killing power had decreased.

Inside each wound, traces of dark elements could be seen. The corrosion of the dark elements was a scarier effect than the direct attack of wind elements, plus it was very troublesome to handle, very hard to heal.

But it didn’t matter, the original intention of creating this summoned beast wasn’t mainly for battle. Now, this battle power was quite satisfactory, which already pleased Du You.

"Let’s go, turn back now, and don’t let those griffins find us."

Du You, along with two others, cleared up the smell they left behind once again, then ran in another direction.

After going in a big circle, Du You spent two days before finally arriving back at Mountain Town.

The surroundings of Mountain Town had already turned into a genuinely established territory, bustling with activity, with a significant population constantly expanding the land. The surrounding fields had been cultivated and were still being expanded.

Although this place was somewhat barren, it was ultimately close to the forest and far from the desert. So, compared to the poor fields, the crops they planted here were at least enough for them to consume.

Now, this territory had established diplomatic relationships with many territories nearby, and the influence of the territory was constantly expanding.

Du You didn’t go into this town but bypassed it, directly going back to his real territory. There weren’t many people who knew the location of this territory, and his people hadn’t leaked any information.

Thus, until now, everyone still thought that this small town surrounding the territory was the territory Du You established.

"Lord, how come you’re only coming back now? Did you encounter trouble?" Shaliya was the first to come out and greet him.

Du You waved his hand: "Nothing happened. I encountered a slight accident, but I’ve already solved it. By the way, has the territorial level experience become sufficient?" Du You asked while opening the panel.

"It’s already enough. Now it’s just waiting for you, Lord, to upgrade." Shaliya was also very curious about how exactly to upgrade.

Looking at the upgrade requirement, Du You had a headache—it needed 100,000 red crystal coins. If he hadn’t brought many red crystal coins this time, even if he could upgrade, he wouldn’t have the money to do so.
