Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

But this couldn’t be blamed on Chu Xiu for not being cautious enough, because the reason he didn’t recognize this person wasn’t just because the disguise was extremely clever, but also because the aura of the Murder Ghost had completely changed!

This was definitely not the same spirit puppets he had dealt with before; it was the main body itself, and its body had undergone some unknown massive transformation!

Although the Divine Power Daoist’s body was severed with an initial strike, and the mana accumulated within was completely chaotic, the hastily activated Thunder Ball’s power was less than a tenth of its original might, but this was, after all, the full-force strike of a Demigod, by no means something a mere King Tier could withstand!

Let alone a King Tier, even an ordinary Heroic Spirit couldn’t easily endure it purely with physical strength!

Yet the Murder Ghost before him not only appeared unscathed, Chu Xiu could also sense a vast life force within it reviving!

At this point, the Divine Power Daoist also recognized this person, using the powerful mana within to forcibly reconnect his severed body, while angrily shouting, ”It’s you! What did you do to my nephew?”

The Murder Ghost chuckled without answering. At this point, everyone felt as if several invisible Blade Slashes flashed through the air, causing the Divine Power Daoist’s face to change drastically as he leapt aside, yet still failed to evade in time. His hand was severed by one of the rifts!

”Courting death!” The Divine Power Daoist roared, and lightning as vast as a tidal wave roared out, instantly engulfing the Murder Ghost.

However, the body of the Murder Ghost remained standing right there!

”Have you already passed the Heroic Spirit Trial?” The Divine Power Daoist asked in disbelief.

”Heroic Spirit? I’ve long become a higher-level existence!” The Murder Ghost laughed loudly, the life force within its body growing stronger, the body rapidly expanding, the charred skin from the Celestial Thunder shattering inch by inch, revealing the pitch-black body beneath!

In an instant, his body swelled to five meters, muscles bulging as if forged from molten metal, with two demonic horns sprouting from his head and six spider-like limbs unfurling from his back!

The aura on his body had long surpassed that of ordinary Heroic Spirits, though not yet reaching Demigod, the pressure made everyone feel uncomfortable, as if faced with an upper-level being with a life force superior to their own!

Yet the Divine Power Daoist, already heavily injured and ambushed, now faced the bizarre Murder Ghost with an extremely grave expression!

Thankfully, besides the Divine Power Daoist, there were numerous Heroic Spirits on the battlefield!

The exchange between the two was exceedingly rapid. From the Divine Power Daoist being heavily injured to the completion of the Murder Ghost’s transformation, it all happened in a flash of lightning. And now, the others had all reacted, the four Heroic Spirits closest rushed towards the Murder Ghost!

The Murder Ghost, however, showed no fear, laughing, ”Just waiting for you to come!”

As he spoke, numerous thin threads rapidly extended from his body, these threads folding and bending in the air, like black lightning flying at high speed!

The faces of those Heroic Spirits changed drastically, facing those threads as if confronting the most terrifying thing in the world, retreating in all directions before even approaching!

Yet some couldn’t evade in time, their shoulder armor pierced by the black lightning. In a moment, their legendary armor was penetrated, and with a flick of the black thread, a neat cut appeared on the person’s shoulder, even the scapula half gone!

The Murder Ghost laughed heartily, his demon body charging fiercely towards the Divine Power Daoist, punching out, and in a flash, a tide-like energy surge exploded on-site, spreading outwards! Even Chu Xiu, standing dozens of meters away, felt a shocking air pressure!

”Boom!”

The two collided, and the Divine Power Daoist’s body was driven back rapidly, the barely connected body once again collapsing!

This startled Chu Xiu: ”This demon body’s constitution definitely exceeds thirty thousand, maybe even close to forty thousand! Possibly slightly stronger than me!”

”Audacious demon, dare you act recklessly within the borders of Huaxia!”

A booming shout resounded, as another Heroic Spirit retrieving auction items joined the fray, thrusting a spear like a silvery-white lightning through the Murder Ghost’s chest, but he didn’t mind, countless black lightning-like threads extending all around, with a ”clang,” the legendary weapon of that Heroic Spirit was directly severed!

This brought a pained expression to the latter’s face, and stopped other Heroic Spirits wanting to assist.

The Murder Ghost seeing this was even more delighted, laughing aloud, more threads surging from within!

After undergoing unknown enhancement, his talent had undergone a qualitative transformation, no longer limited to simple slashing, but able to condense the power of spatial cutting into a more refined structure!

Those snake-like threads were traces left by cut space, death lines condensed from spatial cutting force, capable of instantly shredding even the legendary armor of Heroic Spirits!

Now, these countless death lines formed a cutting domain at his side, slicing apart anything that approached! Preventing anyone from coming close to the forbidden object!

But which Heroic Spirit present isn’t battle-hardened? Though this move was strange, the spatial fissure talent was mainly an offensive talent, not suitable for defense. They just needed to use energy attacks to break it, buying merely a moment of time at most.

But the prerequisite was—

The crowd still had the strength to attack!

Before the Heroic Spirits could reach a consensus, the sound marked by death of spatial fissures rang out again in the venue, unseen Blade Slashes oscillating through the trade arena!
