Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 398: Chapter 207: Ancient God Relic_3

As the words fell, a strange power rose from Su Jinyu’s body, and her form underwent a significant transformation. A crimson eye split open in the center of her forehead, with gill-like folds appearing on both sides of her jaw. She opened her left hand, and a bright red woman’s mouth appeared in her palm.

Facing that mouth, Chu Xiu felt a creeping sense of horror.

”This is the relic I’ve fused with, named the Five-Person Mud Jar. In the Totem War world, a primitive tribe discovered this jar in the depths of a Great Swamp. Upon research, it was found that the swamp was once a sea, turned into a marsh over millennia, and only in a time of great drought did it dry up completely, allowing the tribe to accidentally uncover it.”

”It’s called the Five-Person Mud Jar because it contains five blessings, or rather, five curses, corresponding to the eyes, nose, ears, mouth, and tongue. Only the strongest warrior qualifies to inherit the power, and the warrior who touches it will gain one of its powers, but the rest of their senses will vanish entirely; the warrior with inherited power will become an elder of the tribe.”

”At that time, when they acquired this relic, five Evil Demon elders from the Fallen Abyss, who even had the ability to kill Heroic Spirits, made the exploration team pay a heavy price!”

”I can now temporarily wield part of the power of the Five-Person Mud Jar. This power will not disappoint you.”

Su Jinyu said, in just a few words, her forehead was already covered with sweat, and faint tears of blood were flowing from her eyes!

Clearly, even maintaining the power of the Five-Person Mud Jar temporarily brought immense pressure to her body and soul.

And this is just barely reproducing the jar’s power; once it is officially used, it will inevitably require an even greater cost, and even her soul, which barely caught a breath, will be polluted again.

However...

Chu Xiu carefully observed the rotating eyeball on Su Jinyu’s forehead. Every time they made eye contact, he felt a chill down his spine, and an extreme sense of danger.

If this girl could control this power, it could indeed help him.

”What demands do you have?” Chu Xiu asked bluntly.

Su Jinyu was delighted: ”Being able to help Chen is enough for me....”

Before she could finish, Chu Xiu interrupted her by raising his hand: ”I’m not interested in these empty words, just say what you want without wasting my time and patience.”

Seeing this, Su Jinyu stopped pretending, and a ruthless expression appeared on her face: ”I need more Resurrection Wine to help delay the pollution of the Ancient God Relic. I can die, but I want to drag down that bitch who harmed me before I do! And incidentally, give those who abandoned me an unforgettable lesson!”

”Of course, I won’t ask you to take revenge for me, nor will I involve you in my disputes with those families. I only ask you to help me extend my life. If you become stronger in the future and give me a slight push, it would be appreciated.”

Su Jinyu’s words made Chu Xiu touch his chin thoughtfully.

After a long while, under her expectant gaze, he slowly said: ”If you can indeed help me, I don’t mind giving you a hand. Not just Resurrection Wine, but even higher-tier items, I can get them for you.”

When he finished speaking, Su Jinyu could not help showing happiness, but before she could rejoice for long, Chu Xiu added: ”But you’re too weak now to exert much of the Ancient God Relic’s power.”

”If you can pass the Advancement Trials to General Tier, we can talk about future matters. If you can’t, there’s naturally no point in discussing further.”

After saying this, Chu Xiu said no more. The Flying Corpse under his feet spread its wings, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the sky, leaving Su Jinyu standing there dazed.

There was a look of disappointment on her face, but soon enough, she showed a relieved smile.

Chu Xiu’s words were cold and realistic, but to Su Jinyu, they were enough. She was a half-dead person with one foot in the grave; if she could see a glimmer of hope, no matter how slim, she was already content.

Concealing the hatred in her eyes again, Su Jinyu’s figure became illusory until she completely faded from this world.

At the same time, almost at the exact moment Su Jinyu disappeared, in another world far from Blue Star, a pair of vicious eyes opened from deep within the chaotic darkness.

These eyes seemed to penetrate endless time and space, focusing on the vast Corpse Demon World.

”My spirit fragment was destroyed.”

”Strange, I took special care in assigning Lilith to execute the plan, there shouldn’t have been any slip-ups.”

”Could it be that one of the old guys couldn’t sit still and descended early?”

The enormous eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, but it quickly disappeared.

”Forget it, I have many pieces in play, one more or less doesn’t matter, as long as the ’vessel’ for the descent is intact.”

”However, daring to destroy my spirit fragment, this can’t be overlooked. No matter who is probing me, I must show those others that even after seven thousand years of sleep, there is still an essential difference between me and these ’filthy hậu quả mongrels’.”

”Moreover, the power of the Blood Pool is about to manifest, it’s time to start placing bets...”

With the vast intent surging forth, a bloodstained Bronze Spear shot out from the chaotic void, instantly plunging into the Abyss. Leveraging the enigmatic laws of space within the Abyss, it traversed an almost impossible spatial distance in reality, rapidly shooting towards the Corpse Demon World.

And the moment the intent descended, far away in the Corpse Demon World, Chu Xiu sensed it and raised his head.

”It’s finally beginning.”

Utilizing the perception of the Blood Demon Incarnation, theoretically, Chu Xiu could sense the yet-to-be-collected Pollutants scattered nearby, especially those of the same status as the Blood Demon Core, the Heart and Brain.

Once collected, the power of the Blood Demon Incarnation would surge again, reaching a level infinitely close to a Heroic Spirit.

However, after the intervention of the Blood Pool’s Divine Power, he could feel his perception of those Pollutants suddenly vanish.

This was not an issue with the Blood Demon Incarnation, but with the Pollutants.

This indicated that, in a very short time, new Blood Demons had emerged from these Pollutants and concealed their presence.

This is why Chu Xiu was so certain that this place would become a stage for a worldwide Battle Royale, where all Blood Demons would be reborn or resurrected to pursue the ”divine throne”.

Meanwhile, the entire sky suddenly turned an eerie dark red, a red not formed by light reflecting off the clouds, but a sea of blood that had appeared abruptly, covering the entire sky!

It was not an illusion, but a real existent, boundless Sea of Blood, suspended in the air by some mysterious force!

Chu Xiu could even see grotesque and terrifying creatures swimming in the Sea of Blood!

Suddenly, a cold sensation dripped on Chu Xiu’s head, followed by the sound of a ”pitter-patter” rain. A blood rain was falling from the Sea of Blood overhead.

Chu Xiu could feel the Blood Demon Incarnation stirring in the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch, and all life on this land, nourished by the blood rain, was rapidly growing at an astonishing rate; abyssal creatures born from the blood were evolving at breakneck speed, crossing through days, if not months, of evolution in less than a minute!

”The ’Battle Royale’ has officially begun.”

The power of the Blood Pool was returning to this world, and it wouldn’t be long before the ”Cultivation War” would officially kick off.

Chu Xiu watched the endless blood rain. After a long moment, he chuckled lightly and turned to leave, returning to Blue Star.

After that, he went to the Bloody Arena to complete the ranking match he had promised.

Without any surprises, even though his opponent was the top-ranked Gladiator, Chu Xiu won easily without using the Blood Demon Incarnation, pleasing the Blood Demon Incarnation, which awarded him extra points and a full fifty drops of Ancient Blood.

With this, after redeeming Thought Overwrite·Subconscious Disturbance (SS), he still had seventy thousand points remaining.

After all these tasks, he did not hesitate. With a flip of his wrist, an ancient badge appeared in his hand.
