Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 514: Chapter 252: Spatial Fissure_2

Despite suffering such horrific injuries, he didn’t even blink, just consumed the Golden Embryo Origin to quickly recover from his wounds.

Meanwhile, he formed a seal with his right hand, and the King Tier Five Dragons Crown above his head emitted a dazzling light, accompanied by the sound of dragon roars.

Chu Xiu’s recovery speed accelerated once more, as a layer of golden light rose on the surface of his skin and was covered by layers of Stone Armor.

[Five Elements Technique: Vitality Burst], [Five Elements Technique: Stone Spirit Body Protection], [Five Elements Technique: Indestructible Golden Body]!

This [Myth] equipment’s powerful characteristics instantly endowed Chu Xiu with three King Tier defense buffs!

However, the ambusher showed no concern, instead sneering again: ”Do you think such meager spells can stop my attack? Using tricks like these, it’s clear you’re certainly no Heroic Spirit!”

”Nonsense.”

Chu Xiu shouted in a low voice, seemingly in a bad mood, his pair of black eyes darting back and forth as if urgently searching for the enemy.

This made the ambusher even more smug: ”Hehe, the next strike will show you that such defense is no different from paper in front of me.”

”If you still want to live, show me your best skill.”

As the voice fell, Chu Xiu appeared visibly more flustered, even his probing Divine Sense became scattered, which made the Murder Ghost grin even more.

Of course, as an excellent Assassin, even if he felt the opponent had been driven to desperation, he was not at all careless.

He still cautiously maintained his Concealment, slowly approaching Chu Xiu, until he reached an appropriate distance—

A fatal blow!

With his right hand forming a blade, the Murder Ghost suddenly swung towards Chu Xiu!

”Ka.”

A soft sound, like the declaration of the Death God’s arrival, echoed as a terrifying Blade Slash appeared out of nowhere in the arena, rapidly closing in on Chu Xiu!

Moreover, he had already noticed that Chu Xiu’s reaction speed was inexplicably slow, far from matching even some King Tier beings, making him incapable of reacting to his Blade Slash!

And this time, he aimed the slash at the intersection point of the previous two strikes!

Under successive severe blows, although the [Profound Evil Glaze Armor] wasn’t shattered, a huge crack had appeared, and this attack was targeted precisely at that crack!

He was confident this strike could directly cut Chu Xiu in half!

Though a King Tier Awakened wouldn’t die this way, it would still make him lose most of his combat power, deciding the battle’s outcome.

In the Murder Ghost’s expectant gaze, the Blade Slash crossed the hundred meters distance in less than 0.01 seconds, and sure enough, Chu Xiu remained motionless, with no reaction!

At this moment, the Murder Ghost couldn’t hold back his face-splitting, ecstatic laughter!

Assassinating such a strong person made the blood in him boil!

Yet just before the Blade Slash made contact with Chu Xiu, the Murder Ghost’s brow suddenly furrowed, his smile frozen on his face.

Because he sharply noticed, inexplicably, that Chu Xiu’s lips seemed to curl into an almost imperceptible smile!

Before he could react, a thunderous roar suddenly exploded by his ear!

”Boom!”

This deafening sound was like a Heavy Hammer, striking directly atop his head, smashing his skull; bones mixed with hair were forced into his brain, becoming an indistinguishable mix!

He felt as if his Soul was about to be shattered!

Simultaneously, several of his mental Defense Artifacts carried with him exploded and shattered!

”Ah!!!”

The Murder Ghost screamed in agony as he fell to the ground, the last remnants of rationality telling him that he suffered a top-level King Tier Mental Attack!

Although unaware of who the attacker was or how they discovered his position, he knew he had only one thing to do now, which was to run! Run to somewhere no one could find him, where he could conceal himself again!

But he stumbled just two steps forward, when in his blurry vision, two golden flames suddenly rose.

No, not flames, but two golden eyes exuding prestigiousness like a king upon a throne for millennia!

The Murder Ghost suddenly felt a searing pain from every part of his body, horrified to discover he was engulfed in golden fire just from the gaze of those eyes!

He wanted to speak, but the flames melted his throat, and all his flesh, sinews, and even bones were incinerated, decomposing into fundamental particles in an instant.

”Bang!”

The completely carbonized body of the Murder Ghost fell, shattering into a pile of black ash.

[Kill creature, Professional Experience +16]

”Finally resolved.”

Chu Xiu looked at the featureless corpse before him and exhaled deeply.

Now, another ghastly wound marred his body; although the bleeding had barely stopped, it was evident his Life Force was severely compromised, and the recovery speed had significantly slowed.

It must be said, this mysterious enemy was indeed the strongest opponent Chu Xiu encountered since entering the Abyss, even Asura was no match in terms of threat level.

However, the ambusher certainly didn’t expect Chu Xiu to have so many trump cards.

Though he had lost two pieces of armor, he still had the self-preserving miracle of the ”Magic System” Profession, Supreme Demon Lord

[Unjust Death Substitute].

Mages dread Assassins the most, which was no oversight by the elders who designed the inheritance.

Using several Fierce Ghosts to share damage, along with the Five Elements Techniques, Chu Xiu managed to withstand this strike in relatively decent condition.
