Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 376: Chapter 201: Blood Demon Incarnation (Part 2)

”The gap between such an existence and mortals is unimaginable.”

”So do you know how rare the opportunity you’ve obtained is? If it weren’t for these Blood Demons licking a trace of the Origin Power left by the Mother Goddess, they could never dream of godhood in their entire lives!”

”Now tell me, do you still want to give up this hard-won favor?”

Ashtar’s words made Chu Xiu’s expression change once again, looking indecisive, and doubt arose in his heart. Although the path of the Demon Cultivator is powerful, he really has no assurance that it can rival a god, especially since he’s completely unaware of the future direction.

But after a while, he took a deep breath and said resolutely, ”Divine Envoy, I still wish to try cultivating relying on my own power first.”

As soon as he said that, Ashtar’s expression immediately darkened, seemingly discontent with Chu Xiu’s ignorance of what was good for him. However, before he could speak again, his expression suddenly changed, as if he felt something!

Chu Xiu’s eyes also shifted, noticing something amiss, and saw the originally pitch-black fissure behind him had turned blood-red at some point, with fresh blood continuously pouring out!

Seeing this, a look of disbelief appeared on Ashtar’s face. He jogged over and knelt by the fissure, his face displaying a look of reverence, as if he was listening to some great divine oracle.

After a long time, he stood up again and looked at Chu Xiu with an extremely complex expression, a mix of shock and incomprehension, seemingly hiding a hint of jealousy.

”I really don’t know what’s special about you,” Ashtar sighed lightly, ”The Mother Goddess just sent down a decree, telling me not to interfere with your choice.”

”And furthermore, She also offered another proposal.”

”The [Primordial Source Blood] previously bestowed upon you by the Mother Goddess, you haven’t used it yet, have you?”

Chu Xiu nodded. With a flick of his wrist, a crystalline droplet as dazzling as a ruby appeared in the palm of his hand.

Ashtar nodded slightly and said, ”The Seed of Blood Demon combined with the Primordial Source Blood, plus the divine power bestowed by the Mother Goddess, is enough to construct for you a unique [Blood Demon Avatar].”

”This avatar won’t affect your own cultivation, but like other Blood Demons, it can devour others to continue growing, ultimately achieving godhood. You can control it in a manner similar to a puppet.”

Having said that, Ashtar glanced at Chu Xiu again, somewhat enviously saying, ”Do you know how much divine power is needed to reconstruct a Blood Demon body? I have served under the Mother Goddess for three thousand years, and this is the first time I’ve seen Her favor a gladiator so generously; I really don’t know what methods you’ve used to win the Mother Goddess’s favor.”

Ashtar’s words made Chu Xiu overwhelmed with joy; he never thought he’d still have such an opportunity!

He estimated that the Blood Pool treated him so favorably probably not solely because of his talent. After all, if what Ashtar said was true, the Blood Pool, which governs so many worlds, must have seen countless talents, among whom surely exist beings whose power at the same tier as Chu Xiu is not weak.

The Demon Cultivator profession, though fully ranked, at its core, is still a cultivation-type profession. So-called cultivation requires an accumulation of effort, and early-stage power naturally can’t compare to those born gods and demons.

The Blood Pool looked favorably upon him not only because it appreciated his talent but also likely because Chu Xiu previously helped it win a large amount of stakes.

At this point, Chu Xiu naturally wouldn’t refuse anymore. After carefully considering, he agreed directly.

Ashtar nodded, but before crafting the body, he cautioned, ”But there’s one thing to consider, the [Blood Demon Avatar] is merely an empty shell that requires you to imbue it with consciousness, and if you don’t wish to split your divine soul, you also need to choose another soul as the main entity to control the [Blood Demon Avatar].”

”However, this carries risks, especially once you’ve devoured other Blood Demons, more Blood Demon awareness will merge with the main soul, reducing your control over it.”

”This is difficult to avoid because the Blood Demon’s characteristic is that its awareness is scattered in every drop of blood, and theoretically, every drop of blood can be reborn as an individual Blood Demon.”

”Which means, if you can’t suppress those invading consciousnesses, the [Blood Demon Avatar] might break free from your control, or even develop an entirely new consciousness that turns against your main body.”

This statement caused Chu Xiu to momentarily pause, a hint of worry flashing across his brows.

”Of course, you don’t need to worry too much,” Ashtar continued, ”The Mother Goddess definitely considered this aspect. The avatar She crafted for you has strong suppression methods. Just be careful that the strength you merge from the Blood Demons doesn’t exceed your own too much.”

”Alright, in the coming time, you can choose a soul you wish to serve as the main entity. I will wait at this place for ten years. It would be best if the main soul itself is a Blood Demon; this can support the [Blood Demon Avatar] better. The higher the tier of Blood Demon, the greater the power it can exert.”

The main soul is best a Blood Demon?

Chu Xiu showed a look of surprise, wondering if it could be that coincidental.

After thinking for a bit, he no longer hid it and straightforwardly took out Rasputin.

”Venerable Lord! You finally let this humble one out! It’s been days since we last met, and you’ve grown even stronger! Your talent is truly the greatest I’ve seen in my lifetime without equal... uh?”

As soon as Rasputin was released, he clung to Chu Xiu, lavishing praises, but soon he noticed Ashtar silently observing him from a distance with a puzzled look in his eyes, abruptly pausing his flattery.
