Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 455: Chapter 231: The Price Paid

According to the rules, when a Hunter commits suicide, the resurrection location is random.

But clearly, Chu Xiu’s luck is very bad, as Chi Lei’s rebirth location is near the main city!

”Adding insult to injury.” Chu Xiu’s eyes darkened.

Meanwhile, Liang Zhan and the others showed expressions of despair.

Even if they didn’t know the killing rules of the [Infinite Hunter], they could clearly sense the extremely powerful aura emanating from Chi Lei, and his overt hostility!

This powerful force is not something they can contend with, and just from the aura alone, it appears even stronger than Chu Xiu!

Intercepting the Celestial Dragon was nearly impossible already, let alone with such a strong enemy added to the mix...

Liang Zhan and the others were utterly despairing.

No.

Liang Zhan suddenly shuddered.

It wasn’t entirely hopeless.

The only glimmer of hope now lay in the fact that this suddenly appearing strong enemy was not allied with the Celestials...

However, the glimmer of hope that had barely risen in his eyes quickly shattered again.

At first, the Celestial had a heavy expression and had even prepared for battle.

But he wasn’t reckless. Soon, his lips began to move as he initiated a sound transmission.

And on the opposite side, Chi Lei also transmitted back, and in less than three seconds, they completely resolved the misunderstanding, their faces showing even more sinister smiles than before.

”I didn’t expect to gain such a strong ally.” Chi Lei excitedly licked his lips, looking at Chu Xiu as if he were a dead man.

”I want to see what tricks you still have now?”

”But to be honest, you truly are the strongest genius I’ve ever seen, but your overreaching ambition for perfect clearance has led you to inevitable failure.”

”Do you know that even those top geniuses from top-tier civilizations mostly can only clear Doomsday with the minimum guaranteed requirements?”

With each sentence Chi Lei spoke, he took a step forward, and his aura rose a tier along with it. By the time he finished speaking, he was right in front of Chu Xiu! His power had also climbed to its peak!

The waves formed by pure energy made it difficult for Liang Zhan and the others to even breathe!

Eightfold strengthening! Along with limitless life force recovery! Plus the terrifying resistance accumulated through multiple battles and deaths!

The Rule Power of the Abyss had strengthened this Alien Civilization Envoy to a level far beyond the King Tier, reaching the level of a Heroic Spirit!

The Celestial finally dropped the last hint of disguise, laughing out loud: ”Hahahahaha, you, you, if you had agreed to my terms earlier, you would have already cleared it smoothly. Unfortunately, people always want more.”

”Now, you’re going to pay the price for your greed!”

With the Celestial’s laughter, the restraints on the Celestial Dragon were completely lifted, and its body emitted a dazzling spiritual light. Its gigantic body began to move and accelerate, intending to take everyone deeper into the Fallen Paradise!

At this moment, to fully activate the Celestial Dragon, the populace’s brainwashing was also lifted. The Celestial’s words earlier had fallen into their ears, and even the dullest person now realized what had happened, and they all cried out in terror and despair.

For a moment, the sacred radiance on the Celestial Dragon contrasted sharply with the desperate cries of the women and children on its back.

Liang Zhan looked utterly despairing, the world shook. He stood in front of the Celestial Dragon like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, involuntarily looking at Chu Xiu. Chu Xiu had liberated him from religious ignorance, but now, he desperately hoped that Chu Xiu was indeed the savior Buddha!

Even though he knew, this was just self-deception born of his despair.

But at this moment, Liang Zhan was slightly stunned.

Because he saw that there was no trace of fear or worry on Chu Xiu’s face, only a relieved smile, as if he had finally made a certain decision.

”I was originally struggling with whether to pay such a high price.”

”Thank you for making the decision for me.”

As Chu Xiu’s words fell, he suddenly swung the Thousand Souls Banner, and in the next moment, a massive wave of ghosts surged out like a furious tidal wave!

”This!”

The Celestial’s eyes narrowed, although he had seen the means of the ghostly legion before, knowing it was impossible to breach the Celestial Dragon’s defense in a short time, Chu Xiu’s words still caused him unease. He further channeled mana into the Celestial Dragon, accelerating its departure.

Chi Lei also tensed his legs, emitting a piercing sonic boom from his standing position, charging at Chu Xiu like a cannonball!

Although he mocked with his words, he harbored no contempt in his heart, and without hesitation used his strongest divine technique to kill Chu Xiu as quickly as possible!

Chu Xiu raised an eyebrow, and a Colonel burst out from the Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch. Simultaneously, the severely injured Blood Demon Incarnation also possessed him, standing in front of Chi Lei!

Iron Armor Corpses excel at defense! Thus, although the Colonel didn’t activate the highest level of overload as in the battle against Asura, he still barely blocked Chi Lei’s attack.

Almost simultaneously, the ravenous wave of ghosts charged directly at the soaring Celestial Dragon!

”Hmph, I stood still letting you attack before, yet you couldn’t even break the defense. What other tricks could you have now?”

With a low shout, the Celestial drove the Celestial Dragon to charge head-on!

But in the next instant, his expression changed dramatically!

For with a deafening explosion, the first ghost that collided with the Celestial Dragon exploded instantly! Its entire body focused its energy in one moment, unleashing an astonishing energy wave!
