Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

The Tribulation Thunder Incarnation made no visible moves, yet black mist rose all around. In less than 0.01 seconds, this mist condensed into solid forms, creating one shield after another.

It’s Demon Energy Soldiers!

”Boom!”

Sword Qi and demonic energy clashed, akin to a nuclear explosion. Extreme light and heat burst from the collision point, rapidly spreading outward! The terrifying energy instantly heated the rising airwaves to thousands of degrees Celsius!

The scorching wind brushed through Chu Xiu’s hair tips, yet his form remained stationary, as he focused on the distant figure.

Under the defense of demonic energy, all the Sword Qi was fully absorbed. Although Chu Xiu was unable to inject much Divine-Demonic Power and Artifact Origin, as he aimed for speed before the opponent recovered, the ease with which they absorbed the attack made astonishment flash through his eyes.

Could it be that the Tribulation Thunder Incarnation perfectly replicated all his attributes and divine techniques?

”That means my advantage only lies in equip...”

As this thought arose, Chu Xiu’s pupils slightly contracted, seeing the opposite ”Chu Xiu” raise a hand, and from it, a Chiwen identical to Chu Xiu’s emerged!

However, this Chiwen contained a palpable malevolence! If Chu Xiu’s Chiwen is the divine beast that controls the tides, then the Tribulation Thunder Incarnation’s Chiwen is a demon crawling out from the trenches!

”It’s my turn.”

With a light chuckle, the Chiwen in the Tribulation Thunder Incarnation’s hand swung down forcefully, launching Sword Qi almost identical to Chu Xiu’s!

”Humph!”

Intending to test its methods, Chu Xiu neither dodged nor avoided. Under the Flawless Golden Core’s urging, dense demonic energy surged upward, forming layer upon layer of barriers before him!

”Boom!”

Inside the Star Jumping Ship, dazzling light burst forth again. Even this God-forged weapon of slaughter began melting iron within hundreds of meters due to the intense heat caused by their collision!

Chu Xiu leaped clear from the demonic energy barrier, his expression somewhat grim.

Unlike earlier when he attacked and the opponent defended, this time, he endured the opponent’s offense directly. Chu Xiu fully felt the terrifying power in every trace of the Tribulation Thunder Incarnation’s mana! Energy level not inferior to his own!

Even...

”Is it because of the trial difficulty’s enhancement?”

Chu Xiu even felt the opponent’s Sword Qi appeared stronger than his own!

That Sword Qi earlier had residual power after shattering many barriers, and if he hadn’t dodged timely, he would have suffered a small loss!

Though he didn’t utilize Divine-Demonic Power, the opponent had casually swung the sword, yet instinctively, Chu Xiu felt the opponent’s mana might exceed his!

This thought made his expression unprecedentedly solemn.

A replica mirroring him in every sense, possessing all his divine techniques and equipment, with attributes superior!

It means in a one-on-one duel, Chu Xiu has almost no chance of winning!

Such is the difficulty of the tribulation!

Chu Xiu’s expression changed repeatedly, rapidly considering various plans, but suddenly, his face stiffened slightly.

Opposite him, the Tribulation Thunder Incarnation with an identical face had revealed a mocking smile, as if seeing through all his thoughts.

”As expected of my original self, but try handling this one more sword!”

As words fell, the Tribulation Thunder Incarnation swung the Chiwen again, releasing three narrow Sword Qi beams, pitch-black as ink and making the space they traversed seemingly vanish.

Though less imposing than before, the moment those three Sword Qi beams appeared, everyone’s hair stood upright, a perilous premonition surged within, Zhu Jiu’s face drastically changed, hastily transmitting sound: ”Brother Chen, run quickly!”

Yet before he transmitted, Chu Xiu had already reacted, Divine-Demonic Power erupting with formidable force, causing him to evade sideways swiftly, as innumerable demonic energy formed large hands, reaching for the Sword Qi!

But the next scene left everyone horrified; upon contact with the black Sword Qi, the demonic energy shattered like glass, unable to even momentarily halt, disintegrating in succession!

And after the large hands fragmented, they didn’t recombine into pure demonic energy but coagulated into lifeless rubber-like masses.

Rules of Destruction!

Having faced Zhu Jiu’s replica, Chu Xiu immediately recognized the force contained within the black Sword Qi!

If he hadn’t escaped quickly enough when hit by this Sword Qi, even with his Tribulation Body’s resistance, he would still have half his body instantly shattered!

Momentarily, despite his temperament, a thread of despair arose.

The replica not only exceeded him in attributes but could also wield the power of rules!

How to fight this?

With such a powerful combination, even with the Civilization Envoy still siding with him, chances remain slim, let alone the Envoy not being united with him, isn’t it easy for them to seize opportunistic blows?

”Calm, calm.”

Chu Xiu rapidly muttered in his heart, the opponent must have some limitation, otherwise, why not immediately launch an assault?

While Chu Xiu rapidly considered various possibilities, suddenly an intense coldness seeped through his bones as he looked up. The distant Tribulation Thunder Incarnation still had that mocking, half-smile.
