Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

”There are too few people.” Chu Xiu said.

”Can’t be helped,” the officer also seemed helpless, ”The city is so large, we can only allocate this many troops.”

Chu Xiu said nothing. The enormous Black Death Prison spanned a hundred kilometers; even if all the population was concentrated within fifty kilometers of the central city, it would still cover nearly eight thousand square kilometers!

In such a large area, it’s indeed hard to allocate enough people.

Moreover, the key issue is that many Awakened don’t want to take on the duty of protection; they only want to blend into the crowd and act when the opportunity arises.

Letting out a breath, Chu Xiu turned to the officer and said, ”I will be in seclusion for cultivation in this building next. Contact me immediately if there’s any need.”

”No problem.” The officer nodded, ”We can handle ordinary attacks. You focus on your cultivation.”

Chu Xiu said no more. His figure flashed into the building, then he found a suitable room, and with a wave of his hand, the Four Symbols Yin Yang Furnace and the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array appeared in the room.

Next, one rare material after another appeared in his hand.

[Perfect Refining], activate!

...

One day later.

Chu Xiu sat in the center of the hall, surrounded by blazing flames. The core temperature approached ten thousand degrees Celsius, and without the constraints of the array, the entire building would likely be incinerated by these flames.

And within the flames, a war axe was gradually taking shape, with powerful spiritual power fluctuations surging from it.

A drop of sweat dripped from Chu Xiu’s forehead. Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide and shouted, simultaneously making ten fire dragons of the Nether Fire Array roar together, raising the furnace temperature once more!

Under the high-temperature refining, the rare materials finally fused completely!

”It’s done!”

Chu Xiu let out a long breath, and a rare look of exhaustion appeared on his face.

You should know, after becoming an Awakened, even after consecutive great battles, he seldom showed such an expression!

This was because before, when he refined three General Tier legends, it took him three days.

But this time, refining three King Tier legends only took one day!

Even with the help of blueprints, this speed was incredibly fast.

Aside from his tier advancement and improved talent, to save time, Chu Xiu almost ceaselessly activated [Perfect Refining], maximizing this top talent’s power!

Fortunately, he was very satisfied with the final result.

All three King Tier artifacts, under the effect of the blueprints, were all perfectly refined, with the added enhancement of the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array, further increasing their hardness, and bestowing them with immense Power of the Four Symbols! Each also came with an additional attribute!

Chu Xiu looked at what’s in front of him.

[Aurov’s Battleaxe: An axe used by the North Sea Giant, weighing fifty thousand pounds, capable of cleaving mountains and splitting ice, and increases strength by an additional two thousand when wielded. It carries the Power of the White Tiger, further enhancing offensive capability.]

[All-Powerful King’s Belt: A belt forged by a king, enhancing wearer’s attributes comprehensively, made from the hide of a Deep Sea Giant Beast, imbued with powerful life energy for healing the wearer, and inlaid with forty-eight Magic Gemstones providing a defensive shield. It carries the Power of the Black Tortoise, enhancing total shield capacity.]

[Golden Scale Armor: Made from a Golden Flood Dragon Scale, it fits perfectly as an underlayer, transferring impact through the scales across the body and offers strong anti-magic resistance and moderate mental resistance. It carries the Power of the Cyan Dragon, further enhancing anti-magic ability.]

Among the three pieces of equipment, both the Golden Scale Armor and the All-Powerful King’s Belt are wearable directly, capable of immediately enhancing combat power.

As for Aurov’s Battleaxe, although hard enough, Chu Xiu still felt it didn’t quite match his thirty thousand Constitution combat power.

”Well then, let’s use you first to cultivate my ’Myriad Weapons Storage Technique’!”

”Add points!”

As Chu Xiu turned his thoughts, the lid of the Four Symbols Yin Yang Furnace lifted, and Chu Xiu’s body floated up into the furnace. He only felt a surge of heat, as if his whole body was burning.

To fuse with equipment, one must refine one’s body like an artifact!

As the flames of the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array spewed Nether Fire, the furnace’s temperature increased several-fold! Under this high-temperature roasting, Chu Xiu felt as though his body was going to melt.

Refining oneself into an artifact is a very arduous path that almost no Demon Cultivator would choose, because the process is so difficult; enduring the burning pain while executing exquisite Artifact Refining Techniques, with the slightest carelessness causing the furnace to overheat, resulting either in all previous efforts being wasted at best, or annihilation at worst!

Only an Artifact Refining Master with extremely strong will has a chance to succeed.

It’s safe to say that almost nobody who values their life would venture down this perilous path. If pursuing physical strength, why not cultivate as an Innate Divine Demon? If wanting to simultaneously wield multiple artifacts, another path is safer and more suitable!

Even when Chu Xiu advanced to Warrior Tier, experiencing three different paths in the Illusion Realm, the demonstrations shown to him all depicted a different path.

Yet this lineage remained, because a top-tier Demon Sect powerhouse emerged from it, terrorizing the Righteous Dao, with an indestructible body forged in divine fire, capable of shattering a Righteous Dao advanced practitioner’s Lifebound Flying Sword with a punch! Something not even an Innate Demon God could do!

So the wonders of this cultivation technique are unquestionable, meanwhile, Chu Xiu, compared to other cultivators, possesses a unique advantage—his SSS-level talent.

[Perfect Refining]!

Perfect Refining is not only usable for refining equipment and artifacts.
