Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

As Chu Xiu’s words fell, the Saintess gave him a strange look, the veil over her lips stirring slightly, but in the end she said nothing.

Evergreen Immortal Monarch’s eyes flashed with joy as he laughed, ”Since that’s the case, then please, fellow Daoist, come with the two of us.”

Under the envious gazes of the Ghosts all around, Chu Xiu followed the two of them out. Outside the Immortal Palace there was a beast carriage parked, huge like a treasure ship, with four ferocious-looking Mutant Beasts crouching before it.

Each one possessed an extremely powerful King Tier aura!

Ordinary Ghosts would be injured just by approaching them, harmed by the Evil Qi on their bodies. Chu Xiu, however, wasn’t afraid in the slightest, calmly stepping onto the carriage, which made another hint of surprise flash through Evergreen Immortal Monarch’s eyes.

Very soon, the beast carriage descended at the Immortal Palace’s headquarters not far away.

Just as he got off, Chu Xiu sensed two auras that were Concealed. These two auras were extremely powerful, far stronger than Evergreen Immortal Monarch by more than one degree, but they didn’t seem to have cultivated any profound Concealing Technique. Coupled with how massive Chu Xiu’s Divine Soul was now, relying on the subtleties of Divine Sense, he easily discovered them.

Without letting anything show, he headed straight into the Immortal Palace.

Passing through an archway, he saw a Daoist with crane-white hair and a childlike face, immortal bearing and Dao bones, standing at the center. Compared to Evergreen Immortal Monarch’s ethereal air, this Daoist carried a natural aura of authority that did not need anger to be felt. The moment Chu Xiu entered the room, he felt a pressure surge toward him.

Evergreen Immortal Monarch and the Saintess bowed respectfully. Chu Xiu knew his abnormality had long been exposed, so he simply stood there openly, only giving a perfunctory cupped-fist salute.

Seeing this, Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable’s lips curled into a cold smile. ”This fellow Daoist is indeed rather out of the ordinary.”

Chu Xiu ignored him and directly turned to the Saintess. ”What about the thing I asked for?”

The Saintess gave a light cough, lowered her head and did not reply. Clearly, though she was exalted as a Saintess, her status before these Immortals still wasn’t worth mentioning.

Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable, however, seemed to have long received word. His wrist flipped, and a piece of gelatinous material appeared before him, soft and glossy like jellyfish skin.

Chu Xiu’s eyes brightened slightly.

This Immortal Beast’s Heart Protection Screen had even better Quality than he’d imagined!

With just a sweep of his Divine Sense, he confirmed that this was absolutely an excellent material for Refining the Myriad Filth Returning Origin Bag—far better than what that previous Immortal Monarch had brought out by an unknown margin!

”It might even be possible to refine a Middle Grade Myriad Filth Returning Origin Bag!”

All the Demon Inheritance from Duo Bao Demon Venerable was divided from First to Ninth Grade.

And when converted to the calculation method in the Abyss, one had to consider the Tier of the inheritance itself.

This Myriad Filth Returning Origin Bag was an Artifact of the Nascent Soul Stage. If Chu Xiu’s estimate wasn’t wrong, it should correspond to a Strong Demigod.

The reason he put it so vaguely was because Chu Xiu still hadn’t figured out the exact correspondence between the cultivators’ Cultivation System and the Abyss. By common reasoning, Heroic Spirit should match Golden Core, Demigod should match Nascent Soul, but from the records he’d read, even a cultivator who had just stepped into Nascent Soul was far stronger than an Ordinary Demigod, yet still hadn’t reached the level of a God.

So he could only describe it as Strong Demigod.

”A Middle Grade Myriad Filth Returning Origin Bag... its Tier might reach the Demigod Legend!”

Though it would only be a Demigod Legend, just like the Ten Directions Nether Fire Array and Four Symbols Yin Yang Furnace, this kind of Artifact that Chu Xiu refined through Cultivation would not be constrained by the Abyss’s Rules, that is, Tier restrictions, and would only depend on the strength of Chu Xiu’s true body.

Moreover, the defining trait of this treasure was that its Power mainly depended on the toxic gas and Miasma it absorbed. After absorbing enough Death Qi, its Quality could be further tempered and elevated. It wouldn’t be strange at all for it to advance into a Demigod Myth, or even higher.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu’s gaze involuntarily grew heated.

But Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable flipped his wrist again, putting that ”Heart Protection Screen” away.

Chu Xiu didn’t say much, only stated blandly, ”Name your price.”

Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable chuckled. ”The price isn’t high. It’s just a matter of whether fellow Daoist is willing to pay it.”

”What?”

”Three questions.”

Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable looked at Chu Xiu, his powerful soul firmly Locking onto him. ”As long as you answer my three questions, this Heart Protection Screen will be given to you for free, fellow Daoist.”

Hearing this, Chu Xiu gave a soft laugh and rolled his shoulders.

”No need to make it that troublesome.”

Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable was still waiting for his answer when Chu Xiu struck without the slightest warning—his left hand shot out!

In an instant, surging Demonic Qi in midair turned into a Giant Dragon, opening its bloody maw as it lunged to Devour Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable!

The Giant Dragon came with overwhelming speed, almost reaching Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable in the blink of an eye! Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable was both shocked and enraged. Bringing his index and middle fingers together, he pointed forward. It was as if he released a ray formed entirely from condensed Death Qi, accurately piercing through the Giant Dragon’s skull!

Chu Xiu raised an eyebrow. He could feel that this Death Qi was similar to what was in the Carrion Cave—it was a kind of mutated Death Qi, more condensed than Ordinary Death Qi and possessing special Effect.

”So this is the combat method of the Immortals here?”

It was indeed extraordinary. The Demonic Qi struck by that ray was like ice and snow thrown onto a hot pan, emitting sizzling sounds as it rapidly melted away.

But how could the methods of a top-tier Demon Dao inheritance end there?

Chu Xiu merely flipped his wrist. The torn Giant Dragon completely collapsed and scattered, then in less than zero point zero one seconds recondensed into over a hundred Long Spears!

Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable’s expression changed dramatically. His Daoist robe billowed wildly as a vast tide of that special Death Qi surged out like a wave. Yet even so, his Soul Body was still pierced by at least four Long Spears!

Mountain-Sea Immortal Venerable let out a scream of agony. The Demonic Qi, upon contacting his Soul Body, was like blazing flames igniting, burning his form!
