Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 311: Chapter 179: Calamity’s Proposal

With the upcoming unlocking of the inheritance, Chu Xiu was full of anticipation.

Because generally speaking, the inheritance unlocked at Level 7 usually involves quite high-tier divine secret techniques.

But after he immersed himself in his mind and carefully understood it, he slightly frowned.

”This...”

Chu Xiu showed a bitter smile, somewhat helplessly scratching his chin.

Three inheritances appeared before his eyes:

[Soul-Binding Technique of the Dead (Supreme Demon Lord): Can mobilize the power of the Soul Banner to form a Binding Spirit to restrain the enemy. The greater the soul power contained in the Soul Banner, the higher the skill level of the magic, the stronger the effect.]

[Burning Blood Golden Eyes (Innate Divine Demon): Can cultivate a Golden Eye on the forehead to detect enemy attributes and see through illusions. When mana is infused, it can enhance the effect and impose ’Divine-Demonic Suppression’ on the target being stared at, greatly reducing the enemy’s action ability. Consuming the Golden Embryo Origin or one’s own essence blood can further improve the effect.]

[Ten Directions Demon-Binding Rope (Duo Bao Demon Venerable): Only need to use divine sense to lock onto the enemy; once cast, it can automatically seek out and bind the enemy, continuously extracting the opponent’s mana and attributes.]

It’s not that these three secret techniques aren’t strong, causing some disappointment for Chu Xiu.

On the contrary, these three secret techniques are top-tier skills that can only be learned by the personal transmission of elders, with all grades reaching [Absolute Skill]. It can be said to be very strong, extremely strong!

But the problem is...

”The functions of these three inheritances seem to be somewhat repetitive?”

Chu Xiu scratched his head.

Whether it’s the automatically unlocked Soul-Binding Technique of the Dead or the other two, they all serve as control skills.

However, thinking carefully, this is actually extremely reasonable.

Because almost all demon cultivators only choose one path of cultivation, from this perspective, it becomes evident that the inheritance unlocked on each path gradually cooperates to form one’s own system of combat.

And at this current stage, all attributes that need to be improved are almost all enhanced, defense and attack means are also in place, it is indeed time for control skills.

But Chu Xiu only hesitated a moment before adjusting his mindset.

”Actually, this is also good.”

”Of course, the more control skills, the better.”

”As everyone knows, there’s no weak control skill!”

And right now, he indeed extremely needs control skills.

After cultivating Golden Flesh and Nether Bone to the fifth layer, and achieving perfection with Sin Punishing Demon Saber, Chu Xiu’s offense and defense have no shortcomings, both are abnormally strong.

In comparison, the only issue now is the agility and movement speed.

Although he can match the advanced General tier with the help of super high Basic Constitution and the Vampire Count’s Wings, compared to attack and defense capabilities, there’s still a gap.

Just like in the previous battles, if the Colonel wanted to escape, there’s no way he could keep the opponent, even those corrupted awakened ones would be quite troublesome to kill if they mastered special movement skills like the Corrupted Warrior.

And by mastering a control skill, slowing down the enemy’s action ability would be equivalent to improving his own movement ability!

Moreover, although all three inheritances are control skills, they actually have different focuses.

Burning Blood Golden Eyes can increase additional perception and detection ability; the remaining two focus individually on ”Mental Binding” and ”Physical Binding”, not conflicting with each other.

After a moment of thought, Chu Xiu quickly settled on a plan.

”Prioritize using Cause and Effect Points to upgrade Burning Blood Golden Eyes!”

This skill, while providing control ability, can also enhance his own detection ability. The Nether Demon Eyes were already outdated, using this as a replacement could not be more appropriate.

”As for the other two, consider buying materials for the Demon-Binding Rope with any extra Huaxia Coins for refining, and slowly cultivate the Soul-Binding Technique of the Dead through regular battles.”

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu prepared to start investing points.

This time, he had a total of over eighty thousand Cause and Effect Points, which was essentially becoming wealthy again.

And before upgrading the skills, Chu Xiu was cautiously using divine sense to scan around once more to ensure no signs of enemy presence; he certainly didn’t want to be interrupted halfway during the upgrade.

However, after checking thoroughly, as Chu Xiu was preparing for focused cultivation, he suddenly noticed something, uttered a low ”Hmm”, and looked at the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch on his waist.

During the time of reviewing the inheritance, the Soul Banner and Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch were simultaneously refining Life Souls and flesh.

The Soul Banner goes without saying—let the Ghosts fight and devour for self-upgrading, but the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch requires Chu Xiu to allocate some divine sense for manipulation.

The fifteen hundred thousand Life Energy remaining from the Heaven-Reaching Blood Vine wasn’t wasted but completely transferred to the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch after a certain proportion was consumed.

With so much Life Energy, refining those corpses shouldn’t be an issue.

What caught Chu Xiu’s attention...

Sitting in the center of the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch, the Colonel’s body remained motionless.

For such a fine body with over five thousand constitution, Chu Xiu naturally had high expectations. Seeing this situation, he couldn’t help but frown.

”Could it be that the Colonel’s constitution is too high, making the corpse refinement technique ineffective?”

”No, it shouldn’t be. The Corpse Refining Manual was personally selected and modified by the Saint Sect elders—those guys can easily wipe out a small world with just a raise of a hand. Five thousand constitution should be no problem, let alone fifty thousand, it’s just about the difference in how much flesh is consumed.”

At this moment, Chu Xiu also noticed that Rasputin had unknowingly come over to his side, sizing it up curiously, seemingly having discovered something while quietly mumbling words that Chu Xiu couldn’t understand.

This made Chu Xiu show a thoughtful expression.
