Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

In the distance, Chu Xiu, who was refining the soul and flesh, suddenly opened his eyes.

He could feel that the already weak connection with the Blood Demon Incarnation had suddenly completely severed, leaving only a faint, almost imperceptible sense from the bloodline, indicating to Chu Xiu that the other side was still alive.

”It seems they should have successfully escaped outside the Black Death Prison.”

Chu Xiu let out a sigh of relief.

However, for some reason, he had a faint sense of unease.

Without thinking further, Chu Xiu continued to immerse himself in the refining process.

Under the full force of [Perfect Refining], the damaged Ghostly Legion quickly recovered, and the Purgatory Demon Corpse also continued to strengthen.

Of course, Chu Xiu was also constantly spreading out his Divine Sense, always keeping an eye on the enemy’s movements to prevent them from seizing an opportunity for a surprise attack.

Fortunately, as he expected, the enemy did not take further action against this tough ”nut to crack.”

Five minutes later, all residents evacuated safely.

Fifteen minutes later, even the ammunition supplies in the shelters were transported into the mall.

At this time, all spaces in the mall were already filled, with even a small coffee shop squeezing in two hundred people.

However, no one showed any disdain; instead, they cherished and enjoyed this hard-won safety.

On the playback screen in the central plaza, a drone projected the image of Chu Xiu sitting cross-legged on the rooftop. Even though he was wrapped in a trench coat, making his appearance unclear, just a silhouette was enough to reassure people.

He was like a silent protective figure; as long as he did not fall, no matter how bitter or difficult life was, there was hope.

The children’s eyes sparkled with admiration and longing, and Chu Xiu’s silhouette was deeply rooted in their hearts.

The seeds of ideals and beliefs rely on these moments to take root and sprout.

Of course, Chu Xiu naturally wouldn’t know about these things; he was just racing against the clock to enhance his strength to respond to the upcoming changes.

But what surprised him a bit was, perhaps it was because he had scared the enemy, or something else, that no main force was sent to his area afterward.

Under the monitoring of Divine Sense, those forces were distributed to other fronts.

Of course, this did not mean the enemy ignored Chu Xiu; an elite assault squad of three thousand Horned Demons was deployed less than five kilometers from the mall, led by the two Eighth Ring Horned Demons who previously fought with Chu Xiu.

They were not Chu Xiu’s opponents, but they could restrain him, preventing him from going elsewhere to provide support.

This was a common countermeasure among High Tier strong, also why neither side’s demigod had taken action so far.

Once they moved, it would turn into mutual destruction of each other’s Low Tier forces.

Chu Xiu was also happy to have some peace, focusing solely on the refinement of the Soul Banner.

Thus, another hour passed, and the human front line was pushed back an average of one kilometer, but for some reason, the Horned Demons also slowed their offensive, and both sides welcomed a rare period of rest.

Yet, Chu Xiu furrowed his brows.

”The Horned Demons possess a great advantage in manpower and exceptional individual strength; they can’t be fatigued by just this battle. Even if the first wave of Horned Demons exhausted their Magic Power, they could quickly swap with the ones in the rear.”

”The first to be unable to hold out can only be us!”

”In theory, their strategy should be to use continuous assaults to crush our side; how could they possibly give us a chance to catch our breath?”

”It’s impossible for their commander to make such a basic mistake; there must be another intention behind it!”

But exactly what it was, with the intelligence Chu Xiu currently had, he couldn’t guess and could only leave strategic matters to the government.

All he could do was enhance his strength as quickly as possible!

Soon, another half hour passed.

At this time, the consumed Ghostly Legion had almost fully recovered.

When Chu Xiu was about to proceed with further refining, suddenly, a buzzing sound came from the abyssal rift above him!

Chu Xiu looked up, only to see the dense layer of acid rain on the dome above surging strangely, as if something was moving rapidly within it!

Suddenly, a giant head poked out from the rift!

The head had no facial features, just tens of thousands of parasitic-like creatures densely covering the entire face! Each of those parasites had a giant eyeball on its back, eerily with blood vessels behind the eye penetrating the parasite’s body and connecting deep into the head!

Those eyeballs scanned back and forth below as if searching for something, and Chu Xiu could feel waves of creepy Divine Thoughts constantly scanning over him!

Suddenly, that giant head withdrew.

But immediately, the rift violently shook again, and in the next moment, eight colossal pillars descended from the sky! With immense kinetic energy, they smashed heavily into the ground!

Each of those eight pillars connected directly into the abyssal rift, with no discernible length, and each had a radius as thick as a sports stadium! Upon impact, they immediately pierced the earth’s surface and continued with unparalleled force downward!

”Boom, rumble!”

Chu Xiu felt the skyscraper beneath him tremble, and the ground around those eight pillars had already developed densely web-like cracks!

Rich Death Qi emanated from those eight pillars, spreading along the cracks in the ground, turning the land crimson wherever it passed!

The space centered around those eight pillars visibly expanded, transforming into a Death Realm!
