Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

He was very curious, wondering to what extent the ”Soul-Binding Technique of the Dead” and ”Soul Slaying Demon Finger” had become powerful now!

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu looked at Jiang Miaoyin: ”It’s time to continue exploring the interior of the Soul Hall.”

Chu Xiu’s voice brought Jiang Miaoyin back from her shock. She put on a proud smile and leaned in, saying, ”Senior, I’ve already thought of this for you!”

”While you were in seclusion, I organized the Instantaneous to explore the Soul Hall inside and out.”

”Look, see!”

She waved her hand, and instantly a map made of emerald green spiritual light appeared before Chu Xiu.

This map was as large as a wall, clearly recording the structure of the Soul Hall, with special markings like ”Treasure Chest” and ”Skull Head” in some areas. However, the route leading to the deepest part of the Soul Hall was shrouded in mist, indicating Jiang Miaoyin had not ventured in yet.

”Senior, I’ve already marked all the valuable places for you! I even had the Instantaneous pave the way, so you just have to go and take these resources.”

”How about it? Am I not considerate? Don’t you feel that working with me was the right decision?”

Looking at the map in front of him, Chu Xiu smiled, somewhat understanding why Jiang Miaoyin had previously said she was qualified to assist a Heroic Spirit.

The reconnaissance precision of the Instantaneous might be a bit lacking, but their efficiency was indeed very high, even surpassing his Divine Sense.

With her having pre-explored all the resource points, Chu Xiu only needed to focus on cleaning them up, which was indeed quite convenient.

However, he did not acknowledge Jiang Miaoyin’s boast, simply saying, ”Let’s go.”

Jiang Miaoyin pouted, but quickly made a hand sign, and instantly a large number of Instantaneous pierced through the walls, constructing a passage to the outer world.

Chu Xiu stepped forward, and as he walked, a large number of Ghosts rushed out from the Soul Banner, led by various Ghost Generals, heading to devour the soul-type creatures Jiang Miaoyin had marked in the Soul Hall.

Meanwhile, Chu Xiu himself, along with Jiang Miaoyin, walked towards the deepest part of the Soul Hall.

”I heard that the Soul Hall is divided into three parts: the Sacrificial Altar, the Soul Hall Main Body, and the Secret Altar.”

”The Sacrificial Altar is open to the outer world, a place for ordinary residents to worship, and is also responsible for receiving energy transported from supply points.”

”The Soul Hall Main Body is where the cultivators of the Soul Hall reside, with major living facilities and food storage located here. We are currently in the Soul Hall Main Body, whereas the Holy Spirits guarding it were at the Sacrificial Altar.”

”As for the final Secret Altar, that’s the core of the Soul Hall, accessible only to High Tier Soul Hall Exorcists. It houses the most advanced technology and cutting-edge research of the Exorcist Civilization.”

”Hmm... It’s roughly equivalent to a combination of a cutting-edge scientific research institute and a gathering place for high-level religious officials?”

Walking along, Jiang Miaoyin explained to Chu Xiu.

This knowledge, not even the government has collected; it was the latest discovery by the four major families during their ten days of exploration.

One has to say, this girl indeed provided Chu Xiu with considerable assistance.

With the aid of her information, Chu Xiu also had a rough idea that the Sacrificial Altar should be the first line of defense against invaders. After the Holy Spirits guarding it were destroyed, the Soul Hall personnel, leaving behind a large number of corpses, retreated into the Soul Hall Main Body, using the terrain and various defense facilities to conduct guerrilla warfare.

But clearly, the final battle was still lost, and the survivors should have hidden inside the Secret Altar.

The soul cores of those guarding Holy Spirits should also be inside; destroying a soul core is tantamount to destroying the essence of a Holy Spirit, yielding abundant experience and loot, which is a significant fortune.

Additionally, it should also gather the most elite and high-quality batch of souls in the entire Soul Hall.

”It’s not surprising if some evolved into King Tier leader-level Ghosts.”

Of course, don’t even think about Heroic Spirits, as that’s definitely impossible. The gap between Heroic Spirits and King Tier is not easily crossed; otherwise, the Exorcist Civilization wouldn’t have taken so long to finally produce a Heroic Spirit at the last moment.

And just as the two were talking, the passage leading to the deepest part of the Soul Hall appeared before them.

This was a massive passage over a kilometer long, seemingly built for the Celestial Gods. Even with numerous collapses and battle scars, it didn’t prevent Chu Xiu from imagining its former grandeur.

Within the passage, some ghostly figures in ancient armor were wandering, and at the end of the passage was a Bronze Giant Gate.

”There seems to be some powerful entity behind that door. My Instantaneous were devoured as soon as they entered, so no reconnaissance was done,” Jiang Miaoyin explained.

Chu Xiu nodded and stepped forward. But after only a few steps, he suddenly raised an eyebrow, a knowing smile appearing in his eyes.

His Divine Sense detected a vague figure at the end of the passage.

The figure was entirely grayish-black, quietly crouching on a broken stone pillar closest to the Bronze Giant Gate, almost completely blending with the environment.

Murder Ghost.

He knew this guy wouldn’t give up easily after suffering such a loss, and sure enough, it lingered around once more.

However, this time, Chu Xiu spotted it when they were about eight hundred meters apart!

This guy was smart, knowing that if he couldn’t find Chu Xiu’s traces, he’d simply lie in ambush in the passage leading to the deepest part of the Soul Hall.

In order to ambush Chu Xiu, he hadn’t even cleared a single monster along the way.
