Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

"This is?!"

Before the Celestial Humans could react, a mass of Ghosts began colliding with the Celestial Dragon. Instantly, explosions akin to heavy bombs erupted continuously on the Celestial Dragon, and in less than a second, over a thousand Ghosts self-destructed! The massive shockwave shook the entire Fallen Paradise!

The golden light on the Celestial Dragon’s body was no longer as stable as before. It began to flicker, seemingly unable to withstand the continuous attacks!

This turned the calm expression on the Celestial Human’s face into one of terror in an instant!

When Chu Xiu first entered the Abyss, he used self-destruction as a technique, sacrificing several Yin Ghosts to forcibly kill a wounded Warrior Tier Corpse Demon.

Although self-destruction undoubtedly results in a huge loss in the long run, it can indeed unleash extremely powerful force in a short period!

At this moment, Chu Xiu seemed to have made some kind of determination, without the slightest hesitation, continually forming techniques with his hands.

[Command: Charge]! [Divine Power: Blood Evil]!

His complexion turned pale, and the remaining mana and essence blood in his body were almost completely depleted!

Meanwhile, under the blessing of these two Divine Techniques, the overall strength of the Ghostly Legion rose another level!

The guise usually present in Chu Xiu’s black eyes was completely shed, filled with ruthless ferocity. His hands again formed a technique, murmuring in a low voice:

"Explode!"

Under his command, all the Ghosts within the Ghostly Legion charged toward the Celestial Dragon like a swarm of bees protecting their queen, fearlessly offering up their lives without any hesitation!

Not just low-tier Ghosts, but also Fierce Ghosts, Fierce Ghosts, and even Ghost Generals began to self-destruct!

A crazed look appeared in Chu Xiu’s eyes, and he kept murmuring lowly, "Explode! Explode! Explode!"

Once he made up his mind, he no longer cared about the losses; his mind was solely focused on one goal: to stop this monstrous entity at all costs!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Even a massive being like the Celestial Dragon was engulfed by the dazzling firelight!

A thousand Ghosts, two thousand Ghosts... ten thousand Ghosts! Thirty thousand Ghosts!!!

In less than five seconds, Chu Xiu detonated a total of thirty thousand Ghosts! This included over a thousand Fierce Ghosts and seven Ghost Generals!

The low-tier Ghosts all self-destructed completely!

The expression of the Celestial Human had transformed from initial rage to complete fear, while the residents on the Celestial Dragon’s back stood dumbfounded, watching as those Ghosts charged toward the Celestial Dragon and self-destructed fearlessly.

Before this, they had doubted and despised the Ghosts due to their hideous appearance, but what unfolded before their eyes made them both ashamed and rekindled their hope.

At this moment, those hideously grotesque Ghosts appeared a thousand, ten thousand times holier than the majestic and solemn Buddha statues in their hearts!

"Rumble!!!"

And with Chu Xiu ignoring any losses, even the Celestial Dragon couldn’t withstand it anymore. The spiritual light on its body was breached, and as three more Ghost Generals led hundreds of Fierce Ghosts in self-destruction, it could no longer hold on. After emitting a low cry, it plummeted from the sky!

The sight left Chi Lei stunned.

Could it actually be done like this?

Immediately, his gaze toward Chu Xiu was filled with fear. Although he wouldn’t die, Chu Xiu’s overwhelming power, as if he had endless trump cards, instilled fear in him.

However, this fear was quickly replaced by a fierce resolve.

Even though Chu Xiu had stopped the Celestial Dragon, everything wasn’t over yet; he himself was still around!

After eightfold enhancement, the Blood Sea Domain couldn’t contain him anymore! Let alone the Blood Demon Incarnation being severely injured!

Chi Lei did not believe that Chu Xiu could escort these twenty thousand people away with his obstruction!

Only at that moment did he notice Chu Xiu looking at him expressionlessly, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes.

That disgust wasn’t because his plan might fail due to Chi Lei, but because Chi Lei had forced Chu Xiu to pay extra costs on top of his prepared plan!

Chi Lei’s battle-hardened instincts set off alarm bells in his mind! But it was too late!

He saw the Colonel, who had been defending, suddenly burst with dazzling red light from his chest!

[Fourth Gear Overload]!

Sufficient to suppress Asura’s force erupted like a volcanic eruption, and the Colonel rushed forward, shattering Chi Lei’s blocking arm with a single punch!

The severe pain caused a grimace to appear on Chi Lei’s face, but he didn’t care at all, as he had earlier noticed during the combat that without the Blood Demon Incarnation providing energy, this state would overload in no more than two seconds!

Chu Xiu’s trump card wasn’t just this!

But what territory could he still have?

In the next instant, Chi Lei understood. He saw the red light in the Colonel’s chest becoming increasingly intense instead of diminishing after the overload, like some energy compressed to the extreme, preparing to be fully unleashed!

"You!"

Chi Lei finally realized what Chu Xiu intended to do, but it was far too late!

With another punch from the Colonel in [Fourth Gear Overload], Chi Lei’s ribs shattered, and the Blood Demon Incarnation attached to his back took the chance to rush out, using up its last strength to form a Micro Blood Sea Domain!

In the next second, red light engulfed everything!

"Boom!!!"

A wave of energy far exceeding any Ghost’s self-destruction burst in mid-air, smoke and fire engulfing everything in less than 0.1 seconds. The intense brightness made people ten kilometers away unable to open their eyes, and the ensuing shockwave and loud noise stirred up an overwhelming storm of destruction in this Peach Blossom Spring!

"Rumble!"

The rolling storm engulfed everything.

Chu Xiu stood at the original spot, letting sand and stones hit him, merely raising his hand to shield the residents on the Celestial Dragon’s back.

To eliminate Chi Lei, he had to let the newly refined Colonel initiate self-destruction as well.

The self-destruction of a King Tier Corpse Refinement wouldn’t naturally have such powerful force, but the Colonel had integrated a [Micro-Nuclear Melting Furnace].

Though ’micro’ in name, this was a powerful energy source personally crafted by a Titan Giant Mechanism, its stored energy being anything but ’micro’.

Even though the Colonel wasn’t able to completely integrate and unleash its contained power, the force unleashed from its self-destruction would not be less than a hundred-kiloton nuclear bomb! Had Chu Xiu not planned in advance to ensure the battlefield was distanced from the city, not a single resident would have survived!

At this range, never mind Chi Lei, even if a [Heroic Spirit] appeared, there would be a risk of falling!

When the smoke and dust cleared, all that remained was a soul yet dissipated due to [Slaughter Mode].

Chi Lei’s spirit body stood at the original spot, looking at Chu Xiu from afar.

After he was killed, the malevolence and anger on his face disappeared instead.

He was completely convinced.

"Are you really from a civilization with a depth of less than a thousand?"

Chi Lei shook his head with a wry smile, "Apocalypse Difficulty, and yet drew the top three in difficulty [Infinite Hunter] mode, and in such circumstances, managed to strong-kill and complete a perfect clear..."

"Forget about the Holy Son and Divine Maiden in our clan, even those top inheritors of top-tier civilizations probably couldn’t do this!"

"Even the notorious figures in our civilization’s history barely managed to clear the Apocalypse Trial, generally only by having [Myth] equipment."

"This truly is..."

Chi Lei was at a loss for words.

Their civilization respected the strong.

Upon realizing he was powerless to stop Chu Xiu, his heart was filled with deep admiration and astonishment.

He had never thought such a terrifying genius could exist in this world.

Yet for all these praises, Chu Xiu didn’t even bother to glance over, ignoring him directly.

He casually walked towards the vicinity of the Celestial Dragon.

"Wait! Don’t kill me, I still have..."

"Thud!"

The Yaksha’s Halberd pierced into the Celestial Dragon’s body, and as the physical body was destroyed, the Celestial Human, exhausted of mana, couldn’t maintain the decline of his soul body, turning into ashes at a visible speed, disappearing between heaven and earth.

And without the Celestial Human’s control and maintenance, the Celestial Dragon, having endured substantial attacks, had the golden light in its eyes completely dimmed.
