Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

But in the end, Chu Xiu chose to stay, not because he had any patriotic feelings, but because of...

War!

After understanding the details of the Outer Realm Demon’s invasion, his judgment aligned with Huang Anhua and others that the enemy would definitely no longer wait but would launch a large-scale attack!

How can there be a thousand days to guard against a thief for a thousand days?

If the government truly established contact with the Outer World, relying on the mobility of Demigod powerhouses, it would be impossible to protect the Black Death Prison.

Only by initiating a large-scale, full-scale war! By overwhelming the government, their actions can be hindered!

”And Demon Cultivators, they love war the most.”

The dead bodies and Divine Souls are perfect nourishment for the growth of Demon Cultivators!

His Demon Legion would rapidly grow and evolve in the war!

In just one previous battle, he had killed over a thousand General and King Tiers, and even an Elite Heroic Spirit!

Compared to ordinary Abyss exploration, like the current Corpse Demon World, it’s already a world with a high density of High Tier monsters. But with the Blood Demons hiding away, the entire camp explored for more than a year and only encountered two or three King Tiers, even counting those killed by the Asura, it wouldn’t exceed two digits!

The gap between these is too vast.

Missing this opportunity, Chu Xiu would find it hard to encounter such a dense scene of High Tier creatures again.

For him, this was a great opportunity to inherit the Supreme Demon Lord’s legacy and cultivate to Elite Heroic Spirit strength!

With his mind made up, Chu Xiu no longer hesitated and began to think about his plan of action.

”To turn this danger into an opportunity, I must prepare more trump cards...”

After pondering for a while, he returned to the command hall and found Huang Anhua.

”Senior, I have a request.”

Seeing it was Chu Xiu, Huang Anhua’s square face showed a hint of surprise, and when he asked what Chu Xiu requested, that surprise turned into shock.

”You say you want the body of that Demigod Horned Demon?”

”Yes.”

”... What do you want it for? Are you perhaps a Corpse Refinement professional?”

Chu Xiu replied frankly, ”I indeed have such an artifact.”

That’s right, this was the method he found after contemplation to quickly enhance his own strength! That is refining a corpse using a demigod’s body as material!

In the Supreme Demon Lord’s lineage, an ultimate legacy [Purgatory Demon Corpse] had yet to be cultivated!

And this is a legacy at the same level as [Demon Energy Soldiers]! Definitely incredibly powerful!

If he could successfully refine a [Purgatory Demon Corpse] using a demigod’s body, even if only a half-finished product, the power would be enough for Chu Xiu to look forward to.

On the other hand, hearing Chu Xiu’s admission, Huang Anhua’s eyes showed even more shock.

He increasingly couldn’t understand this person, Chu Xiu.

Initially, he just regarded Chu Xiu as an Ordinary Heroic Spirit returning from overseas, most likely with a fake identity; otherwise, how could a King Tier suddenly become a Heroic Spirit?

Not only him, but most people also had their suspicions, yet nobody openly exposed it, since having multiple identities was too common among High Tier Awakened ones.

Everyone only cared about Chu Xiu’s value, such as his potential Artifact Refining abilities.

For Huang Anhua, as long as Chu Xiu didn’t cause trouble, he, the Director of the Regulator, wouldn’t target him, considering Chu Xiu just an Ordinary Heroic Spirit.

Even after Jiang Lingfu and Divine Power Daoist had mentioned him several times, he didn’t pay much attention.

But the moment he first met Chu Xiu, the latter was entirely beyond his imagination.

Ella and Chen Yuan were both specially focused ”Elite Heroic Spirits” within the Regulator Bureau with strength surpassing Ordinary Heroic Spirits.

Yet even these two, fighting two against one, were suppressed by Chu Xiu!

Of course, this one battle could be said to have not been fought with full strength by both parties, but after Chu Xiu destroyed the black spire in another battle, he completely realized this person’s terrifying strength! He’s definitely a top-tier Heroic Spirit, incredibly close to being a Demigod!

And with such an overwhelming level of actual strength, Chu Xiu even demonstrated the ability to manipulate corpses!

”Corpse Refinement, Artifact Refining, plus this outrageous actual strength... Who the hell is this guy professionally? Never heard of a Heroic Spirit like him, could he really be a hidden Demigod?” Huang Anhua secretly mused in his heart.

After thinking for a while, he then looked at Chu Xiu saying, ”The body of a Demigod is priceless, I can’t decide this.”

”What I can do is only attempt to contact the Demigod who killed this Horned Demon for you.”

”As for whether that person is willing to meet you, and whether they’ll give you the body or not, it’s not up to me.”

Of course, Chu Xiu didn’t mind this and quickly agreed.

It didn’t take long for him to receive good news: the other party was willing to meet him.

This was also within Chu Xiu’s expectations. Although a Demigod’s body is incredibly valuable, in the current situation in Peng City, it cannot be quickly converted into combat power, and if it could be exchanged for something like Cause and Effect Points, the Demigod warrior might not refuse.

Soon, Chu Xiu found himself standing outside a room with Huang Anhua.

Instinctively, Chu Xiu extended his Divine Sense, only to discover it collided with a barrier, leaving him completely unable to see inside the room.

He understood this meant that the person inside didn’t want to meet him, so he tactfully retracted his Divine Sense.

”I heard from Director Huang that someone wants the Demigod Horned Demon I possess.”

At this moment, a mature female voice came from within the room.

The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Chu Xiu. Without thinking more, he quickly clasped his fists and said, ”Replying to Senior, the junior has a special artifact that can drive corpses. With the great war approaching, I wish to exchange this Horned Demon body with Senior, I wonder what do you think?”

He currently had over 1.5 million Cause and Effect Points on him, along with rare artifacts like Fixed Anchor Points, and Chu Xiu felt he had a good chance of convincing the opposite party.

However, just as he finished speaking, a soft ”Oh?” came from within the room, followed by a light chuckle: ”Turns out it’s you.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu was stunned, and then quickly realized!

The voice from the room was exactly the same as the person who had competed with him at the auction for the Divine Gifted Meteorite Iron, none other than Chen Yuan’s master!

As expected, the next moment a playful laugh came from the room: ”You were quite overconfident before, weren’t you? If you had given the Divine Gifted Meteorite Iron to me back then, I might have given you this mere body for free.”

The woman’s words made Chu Xiu complain inwardly. He hadn’t expected the Senior to hold such a grudge, and he could only resign and reply with a bitter smile, ”Senior jests, a Demigod’s body is worth at least 2 to 3 million Cause and Effect Points, how could it be given away so lightly?”

”The junior was blind previously, please don’t hold it against me, Senior.”

Chu Xiu decisively chose to admit defeat, since he didn’t care much about it anyway, only what could really fall into his pocket mattered.

Unfortunately, the woman in the room didn’t seem amused by this excuse, and simply continued to laugh: ”So you’re saying you’re planning to spend 2 to 3 million Cause and Effect Points to buy this body?”

Chu Xiu shook his head: ”The junior doesn’t have that many Cause and Effect Points.”

”Then what are you saying?”

”What I mean is, that ’outside’ this body is worth as much as Cause and Effect Points, but with the Horned Demon besieging the city, prices have naturally changed a lot.”

The woman inside the room scoffed, ”You think I’m like you? The Black Death Prison can’t trap me, if you’re thinking of taking advantage of the situation, I’d advise you to forget it.”

With those words left, Chu Xiu fell into silence.

His Spiritual Sense could feel a strong sense of confidence from this woman, not merely a bluff but an actual ability to leave the Black Death Prison; there was even a hint of disdain in her words.

Other Demigods, such as Huang Anhua and others, had never been this self-assured, and coupled with the fact that this woman could kill a Demigod, she was indeed probably very powerful.

But that being the case, it’s unlikely he’d be able to acquire this body at a low price.

Understanding this, Chu Xiu sighed lightly, and helplessly clasped his fists and said, ”Sorry to disturb you, Senior, please don’t hold it against the junior.”

With that said, he decided not to waste any more time and turned to leave.

However, just at that moment, a voice suddenly rang out behind him:

”Wait a moment.”

Chu Xiu paused, turning around to see a phantom golden eye staring at him through the door.
