Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 437: Chapter 223: Trump Card

”Ah?”

Chu Xiu’s words left Rasputin completely stunned.

Take the initiative to kill the Asura?

Of course, he knew this could completely solve the problem once and for all, but the key is—

With what?

Even if Chu Xiu were at his peak state, at most, he could team up with Rasputin to deal with one Asura, and that’s assuming the opponent has no other cards up their sleeve.

Add a Garuda into the mix, and there’s absolutely no chance of winning, only relying on the Heaven-Reaching Blood Vine, this artifact from the ”myth,” to resist.

Let alone the unseen Qian Dapo and the watchful Alien Civilization Envoy!

In this situation, with what to kill?

Was his master out of his mind? Or did Chu Xiu have some trump card he didn’t know about? Yet he had been with Chu Xiu for so long, almost witnessing his growth, what trump card could there be that he did not know?

Could it be the opportunity he gained when he was placed inside the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch?

Rasputin was utterly baffled.

To this, Chu Xiu certainly had no interest in explaining.

A Blood Demon like Rasputin couldn’t possibly imagine the wonders of the Demon Cultivation Technique.

Demon Cultivators have always grown stronger through battle, the more they killed, the stronger they became.

The million Hungry Ghosts slaughtered before were the best nourishment for Chu Xiu’s growth!

With a single thought, the vast life energy from the Heaven-Reaching Blood Vine began to surge into the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch; nurtured by this life energy, powerful creatures began to emerge.

...

Seven hours later.

Chu Xiu, fully prepared, once again delved into the Fallen Paradise with his Blood Demon Incarnation.

At this time, the mana and Golden Embryo Origin within him were far from optimal.

However, Chu Xiu’s face did not show much fear, instead, there was a resolved determination.

He sat atop the Flying Corpse, spreading out his Divine Sense, advancing along the Fallen Paradise and sensing Asura’s location.

Initially, Chu Xiu was a bit worried; the terrain in the Fallen Paradise was complex, with thousands of passages. If Asura intended to hide, he might indeed be hard to find.

But evidently, Asura had absolute confidence in his own strength, as almost immediately after Chu Xiu spread his aura, a towering figure blocked his way.

”Hello there, Civilization Envoy.” Asura grinned, revealing a slightly mocking smile to Chu Xiu.

And at the moment he heard the term, Chu Xiu realized that Asura had already teamed up with the Alien Civilization Envoy.

The True Sin Punishing Demon Saber appeared in his hand, and Chu Xiu calmly said, ”Asura, I think we can talk. There is no fundamental conflict between us.”

”Oh?” Asura’s sarcastic look intensified as he heard that. ”Quite the words, if it weren’t for the depletion of the life energy of that strange tree, would you have even considered negotiating with us ’lowly’ Abyssal Natives?”

Facing Asura’s sarcasm, Chu Xiu’s expression remained unchanged: ”I believe the Alien Civilization Envoy has already informed you of my identity and purpose. That’s good; it saves me some time. But since you know this, you should also be aware that my goal is merely to escort the residents here out. We don’t need to have a conflict.”

”Hahaha...!”

But, hearing Chu Xiu’s persuasion, Asura couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

”Saying that, are you treating me as a fool, or are you the fool yourself?”

”Do you think I don’t know that by killing us, you Civilization Envoys can gain a treasure trove of benefits?”

”If I’m not mistaken, you’ve already absorbed the power of Yaksha and the others, haven’t you?”

As Asura finished, Chu Xiu sighed lightly, knowing that any negotiation was now impossible.

The trust between the two was already extremely fragile, and with the Alien Civilization Envoy instigating, reconciliation was even more out of reach.

Moreover....

Chu Xiu looked up; it was evident this Asura had absolute confidence in his own power. Even if Chu Xiu wasn’t planning to kill him, he would surely be trying to kill Chu Xiu to seize all his treasures!

”In that case...”

Chu Xiu placed the True Sin Punishing Demon Saber in front of him, and an Asura Long Blade also appeared in Asura’s hands.

There was no option but to fight!

Without any superfluous words, Asura charged, and at the same time, Chu Xiu’s Blood Demon Incarnation rushed out immediately!

”Boom!”

The two collided, causing a massive explosion in the center of the passage. The shockwave from the impact condensed into wind pressure, sweeping outwards and shattering nearby boulders!

After the clash, Asura stepped back half a step, while the Blood Demon Incarnation withdrew fifty meters away.

Asura wore a cruel smile on his face: ”You were not my opponent before, and you still aren’t now!”

As the words fell, he charged at the Blood Demon Incarnation again, while the Blood Demon Incarnation used all its skills in succession, yet it was still beaten back step by step, and within just a few breaths, half of its flesh was already smashed.

At that moment, Asura suddenly punched the Blood Demon Incarnation away and then made a sudden turn in the air, rushing towards Chu Xiu’s true body!

A bloodthirsty and ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. This was his real plan! Although he held the upper hand in the fight against the Blood Demon Incarnation, its durability was just too strong. In a true death match, while he would likely still win, it would require a considerable price and take a long time.

He had previously suspected that the Blood Demon Incarnation was actually just a summoned creature, and the real controller was Chu Xiu! Because although the Blood Demon Incarnation had its consciousness, it seemed a bit too ”obedient” to Chu Xiu.
