Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Half an hour later, amidst the cheers of the crowd, the last fighting Horned Demon was pinned to the ground.

In this invasion battle, over three hundred thousand Horned Demons were involved, and only a few strong ones managed to escape in the chaos. The vast majority turned into nourishment for the Awakened to level up, and all around were the incomplete bodies of Horned Demons.

”Puchi.”

Behind Chu Xiu, Demonic Qi transformed into a spear, piercing to death a Horned Demon lying on the roadside, barely alive.

[Obtained item: Cause and Effect Points *548]

”It’s finally over.”

Chu Xiu let out a long breath; even with his Constitution, he felt exhausted.

Within the range of his Divine Sense, there were no living Horned Demons left.

Moreover, his parents had returned safely ten minutes ago.

They had been enveloped in a giant cocoon by the Blood Demon Incarnation, using special means to put them into a deep sleep.

When they woke up, they would only remember hiding in the Shelter and waiting to be rescued.

With this, the turmoil had finally been weathered.

Thinking this, Chu Xiu couldn’t help but show a relaxed smile.

Danger and opportunity always coexist; although the difficulty of Peng City was perilous, it also brought him rich rewards!

After the Outer Realm Demons fled, he swept through without rest thanks to his strong Constitution, eventually killing nearly three thousand Horned Demons!

These Horned Demons provided him with a large amount of Cause and Effect Points and experience.

Counting the previous ones, Chu Xiu had racked up nearly five million Cause and Effect Points this time!

And his experience points had reached: King Tier Level 8 (Sixth Transformation)

”I’m almost at the Seventh Transformation.”

Chu Xiu couldn’t help but sigh again; Awakened truly had unparalleled advantages.

In his previous life, even with countless top-tier talents in the Demon Sect, combining various celestial materials and treasures, it often took hundreds of years of cultivation, and in a million years, only three people barely completed the Ninth Transformation.

Yet Chu Xiu, not even two years since awakening, and less than two months as King Tier, was already approaching the Seventh Transformation.

Next, collecting the Blood Demon creatures formed from those bodily components in the Corpse Demon World, and then grinding in the Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace, would almost be enough.

”With my current strength, I should qualify to explore the deepest level of the Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace.” Chu Xiu thought to himself.

The deepest level of the Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace housed powerful Heroic Spirit Ghosts that had been entrenched there for two thousand years. With his previous strength, going there recklessly would have been suicide, but now he had the confidence.

If he could seize this opportunity, it would bring him a significant enhancement.

Moreover, Chu Xiu’s gains this time were far more than just that.

Besides experience and Cause and Effect Points, he also acquired a large number of High Tier bodies and souls!

Although everyone knew the value of Horned Demon bodies and souls, other Awakened did not have an Artifact like a Spirit and Flesh Storage Pouch capable of storing large amounts of flesh, nor did everyone have tools for collecting souls.

So this was to Chu Xiu’s advantage.

Roaming the battlefield, the flesh and souls he collected were even more than what he killed himself!

”With such a massive amount of Flesh Energy and Divine Souls, if I can completely refine them, I should have no problem crafting a complete Purgatory Demon Corpse and Ghost King!”

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu felt that his previous decision was absolutely correct.

The gains this time were equivalent to ten years of his normal exploration in the Abyss!

Letting out a light breath, Chu Xiu decided that after taking his parents back to Jiang City, he would find a safe place to retreat and digest all the gains.

He was very much looking forward to how powerful he would become after absorbing so many resources!

However, just as Chu Xiu was about to leave, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Two figures appeared within his Divine Sense.

Zhang Qingshan and Chu Qin, each carrying a corpse, were silently walking toward the direction of the army assembly. Behind them, scattered people followed, some of whom were classmates of Zhang Qingshan, and others who seemed to be newly acquainted comrades in the army, whom Chu Xiu had seen fighting alongside Zhang Qingshan.

These people were all carrying corpses, their expressions solemn.

Compared to Chu Xiu’s memory, Zhang Qingshan’s team had noticeably fewer people.

Chu Xiu fell silent for a moment.

By now, only a fool wouldn’t see that this attack was part of the Celestial Kings’ plan to lure and kill the Outer Realm Demons.

If Chu Xiu guessed correctly, the Celestial Kings had not only ambushed Peng City in advance, but even allowed those Forbidden Objects that opened the Abyssal Rift to enter, on purpose.

The purpose was to wager the city for a chance to assassinate the Outer Realm Demons!

Zhang Qingshan and his team should have been pre-deployed in Peng City as a stabilizing force.

This unit’s strength couldn’t be too strong, or it would alert the Outer Realm Demons, and they had to possess absolute loyalty to the country to prevent the mission from being leaked to the Extreme Dao.

And maintain a strong fighting spirit and belief at all times and places.

Only in this way could they inspire others at critical moments and maintain the order of the entire city.

To this day, no large-scale riots had occurred in Peng City. Apart from the excellent execution of the demigod plan, swiftly dispatching a War General to stabilize the military’s morale, this unit’s stabilization effect was also indispensable.

Don’t underestimate this effect. If ordinary people, driven by despair, fell for the Outer Realm Demons’ schemes and began to kill each other, this influence would quickly spread from the bottom up, causing the entire city to collapse completely!

If the entire line of defense were destroyed, those in defeat wouldn’t even be able to launch an effective counterattack, let alone force the Outer Realm Demons to act!
