Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

At the dark bottom of the canyon, dense Yin Qi turned into strands of mist that hovered in the air, some rolling upward under the influence of air currents, while others circled in mid-air before settling onto the rocks below.

These mists moved according to their own patterns, collectively forming a thin layer of white mist.

Suddenly, a massive stream of air shattered this rare natural balance, and the strong wind blew the white mist dispersingly to the sides. Within the air currents, a giant skull rushed out!

It was enveloped in a ghostly green flame, emitting a sharp howl from its mouth. Waves of death energy radiated outwards continuously, instantly robbing any living being touched by these waves of all vitality.

In front of it, countless Instantaneous creatures flapped their short wings, desperately fleeing.

”Squeak!”

One Instantaneous creature was hit by the ghostly fire spewed from the giant skull’s mouth, instantly reduced to ash, its specialized skin offering no resistance against the Yin Qi.

Witnessing this scene, the other Instantaneous creatures screamed in terror and fled even more frantically.

The skeletal ghost, as if it had consumed some great tonic, grew more robust, hunting the fleeing Instantaneous creatures with increasing excitement.

But at that moment, as if space itself had shifted, an eerie man appeared out of nowhere right in front of it.

He wore a loose black robe, a black mask covered his face, an ancient crown engraved with simple patterns sat atop his head, and behind him were two radiant golden wings like the sun.

For some reason, even though that figure was so small compared to itself that it could be ignored, the skeletal ghost instinctively felt a profound sense of danger.

It reacted in a split second, roaring and spewing a torrent of ghostly fire like molten lava, surging toward that figure!

”Boom!”

The figure was engulfed in an instant, but something strange happened. No matter how the ghostly fire burned, the figure within the flames remained motionless, only a faint multicolored glow hanging down.

[Profound Evil Glaze Armor: Significantly reduces magic system damage with its glaze glow]

The sense of danger within the skeletal ghost intensified. It abandoned the delicious meal in its mouth and prepared to flee backward. At that moment, the distant figure gently extended a finger toward it.

Before it could react, a green light pierced through its soul body.

In the next moment, something that filled it with immense fear happened. It felt all the Life Force within its body, necessary to maintain its existence, being drained away in an instant, as if it aged thousands of years instantaneously!

”Crack!”

Cracks appeared on its bones, spreading rapidly like a web, until with a loud crash, it shattered completely.

Without its physical form, its frail soul body was exposed like a pearl cracked from its shell.

Countless ghosts pounced upon it, frantically tearing into this ghost’s soul body. Amidst the silent wails, it was thoroughly ripped apart, devoured, and digested.

[Slaughter Life Form, Professional Experience +425]

[Obtained Item: Cause and Effect Points *3246]

[Obtained Equipment: Ghost Fire Breath Mask (King Tier Treasure)]

[Level Up!]

[Current Tier: General Tier Level 9]

”Full level at last.” Chu Xiu opened his eyes, feeling the ever-renewing power throughout his body, a slight smile appearing on the corners of his lips.

In these three months, he and Jiang Miaoyin cooperated skillfully, almost thoroughly searching the entire outer area.

Of course, in such a vast area, there were certainly many omissions, but the harvest was enough to satisfy Chu Xiu!

In three months, he killed over a hundred General Tier, a thousand Fierce Tier, and three King Tier!

So many monsters yielded a substantial amount of artifacts, equipment, and nearly a hundred thousand Cause and Effect Points.

Furthermore, he also acquired many precious materials, easily worth several billion.

Of course, the more valuable gains were these creatures’ soul bodies themselves!

In these three months, just by absorbing Yin Qi for cultivation, Chu Xiu’s Ghostly Legion’s average Level increased by one.

And with so many high-quality Divine Souls, all the souls of the gods he had previously killed in the Ancient Trials upgraded to High-tier Ghost Generals!

An unexpected surprise was that, because the souls of the King Tier ghosts in the Blessed Land were so exceptionally high quality, even if their strength was merely ordinary King Tier, the strength and quality of their souls were comparable to those of some gods.

Chu Xiu erased the will of the cores of the three King Tier ghosts he killed and collected them in the Soul Banner; after successive nurturing, one ghost actually took a shortcut and also became a High-tier Ghost General!

The number of ordinary Ghost Generals dramatically increased by twenty-seven!

Now Chu Xiu commanded eight High-tier Ghost Generals and forty-four ordinary Ghost Generals! The number of Fierce Ghosts below them was countless! The Ghostly Legion moved like locusts sweeping the land, heralding an apocalypse, and the power of the Soul Slaying Demon Finger was elevated to unimaginable levels.

Chu Xiu even felt that as long as he could hit them, even Heroic Spirit beings would not escape unscathed!

”And this is just after sweeping the outer area, merely one of the eighty-two Blessed Lands...”

Chu Xiu again felt that spending a fortune to acquire the Anchor Point of the Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace World was a wise choice.

Although such an immense opportunity might not arise again, even discounting the Nine Great Sacred Lands and eighty-two Blessed Lands, this place was perfect for gradual growth and exploration.

”At this rate... I really might be able to cultivate a Ghost King!” Thinking of possibly possessing a powerful ghost on the Heroic Spirit Level, even Chu Xiu couldn’t help but feel excited.
