Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 164: Chapter 128: The True Identity of the Upper Position Follower

Although the Flesh Maze is the hardened contraction of a flesh mutation, it remains large due to the fusion of numerous tumors attached to the tower.

The first floor of the central tower alone covers over ten thousand square meters, and the Flesh Maze reaches a height of nearly thirty meters, creating a massive three-dimensional space. Some walls are directly fused with the tower body, making them almost impossible for ordinary Awakened to destroy.

Finding the Corpse King quickly in this complex structure is undoubtedly extremely difficult.

But there are traces to follow—each Corpse Demon sent out by the Corpse King to hunt the Awakened has blood vessels connected at the back, directly pointing to the core region.

Although the Corpse King actively cuts off the blood vessels after these Corpse Demons die, it is still possible to roughly determine the direction of the core region.

”But if the Awakened really think so, they will fall into the trap.”

Chu Xiu revealed a smile.

After re-establishing connection with all the demons, Chu Xiu quickly grasped the internal information of the central tower.

He discovered that this Corpse King is very insidious. These blood vessels appear to point to the core region, but they have been folded in the flesh mutation in advance, ultimately leading in a completely different direction.

Also, each area’s Corpse Demons point to a common location to prevent the Awakened from discovering the flaw.

This causes the teams of Awakened to keep circling the outskirts.

However, for Chu Xiu, finding the Corpse King’s location is not difficult.

”That guy actually piled my Ghostly Legion around its core region, making my subordinates its guards instead.”

”Quite bold, huh.”

In his perception, a large number of demons are concentrated in one area, surrounding it tightly from all directions.

”Presumably, the Corpse King thought I couldn’t get out of the Bloody Arena so quickly, and thus used this tactic.”

”But now, it’s actually easier for me to locate you.”

Chu Xiu’s face showed a hint of coldness, and his two Frenzied Celestial Demon Hands alternately punched forward, like two shield machines, continuously destroying the walls in front of him, digging toward the core region.

Chu Xiu could feel that as he approached, the Corpse Demons in the Flesh Maze seemed to become restless.

He snorted lightly, and the Demon Legion surrounding the core region began to open passageways to each other, forming a circle that completely surrounded the center!

The original guards, counterintuitively, became the cages that imprisoned it!

”Boom!”

With a loud bang, the Frenzied Celestial Demon Hand smashed through a wall of flesh again, and the core region where the Corpse King was situated fully appeared before him.

It was an oval tumor with a radius of nearly ten meters, but unlike other tumors, its surface was densely covered with many human faces, both old and young, male and female, each appearing extremely painful!

Every face had several blood vessels extending from their foreheads, stretching throughout the Flesh Maze to the distance.

”Strange creature.”

Chu Xiu murmured, without any hesitation, the Frenzied Celestial Demon Hand suddenly struck out!

”Bang!”

A large area of flesh exploded; with a single punch, the massive shockwave spread along the tumor, shattering nearly half of the flesh!

But at this moment, Chu Xiu suddenly murmured, ”Huh?”

Because he found, at the center of the tumor, an incongruous modern device, which seemed to be a life-supporting apparatus accommodating a person lying flat. Numerous blood vessels connected from the surrounding flesh walls to it, filled with bright red blood, with many scattered blood vessels around.

It seemed that someone used to lie here, sustaining life with energy supplied by blood vessels, but has since left.

”So you ran away before I returned?”

”Tsk, those Extreme Dao folks are really efficient.”

If Chu Xiu’s guess is correct, the Corpse King used to lie in this life-supporting device, initially unable to move in a weakened state. But as more Awakened died, the Power of the Blood Moon Ceremony gradually unsealed its Power.

”What a hassle, I wonder how much this guy has unsealed.”

With a flash of coldness in his eyes, Chu Xiu punched again, the frenzied force instantly destroying the life-supporting device along with the remaining tumor.

With a deafening explosion, all controlled Corpse Demons fell to the ground simultaneously, losing their vitality.

Chu Xiu closed his eyes again, connecting his mind with the other Ghostly Legions, starting to search for the Corpse King’s tracks.

And soon, he opened his eyes, with a discovery.

...

At the same time, in another corner of the Flesh Maze, Ye Junlin swung his sword, cutting down an Extreme Dao in front of him in two.

In the splattering blood, a large number of items burst out.

He collected them emotionlessly, then turned in another direction.

Over there, Zhang Qingshan and Wei Shan had teamed up, firmly controlling the remaining Extreme Dao.

Ye Junlin wiped the blood splattered on his face, raised his sword, and walked towards it.

”I knew you lunatics had no bottom line and wouldn’t miss such a good hunting plan.”

Not long after entering the Flesh Maze, he realized something was wrong.

The most direct anomaly was receiving news from his squad leader that three people in his team had completely disappeared.

This immediately aroused his vigilance, and he began frequently communicating with other forces, quickly confirming the fact that Extreme Dao were hunting.

Their first attack target was the various Support Professions outside the Flesh Maze, but fortunately, Zhang Qingshan had beforehand arranged personnel for protection, and everyone joined forces to repel the attack once.
