Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

On the ground, countless inscriptions were etched, intertwining with each other to form an extremely intricate array.

The domain ghostly creature stared blankly at the array on the ground, lost in thought.

"I know you have many attachments, but it’s time to fulfill your promise."

"You know, I won’t allow anyone to deceive me, right?"

With a sigh, the domain ghostly creature replied gently, "Rest assured, I do not fear death."

"Exchanging my death for the rebirth of my tribe is something I have sought all my life and could never obtain. How could I regret now?"

"I’m just a little reluctant. Two thousand years, I have longed day and night to see other living tribesmen, and now that I’ve finally fulfilled my wish, we must part ways again."

"Please, let me gaze upon them a few more times."

Hearing this, Chu Xiu no longer urged, and after a long while, the domain ghostly creature finally let out a long breath, withdrawing its Divine Thought from afar. Then, as if having resolved all concerns, he sat cross-legged in the center of the divine hall.

A strange fluctuation surged from his body, and under Chu Xiu’s gaze, it seemed as if a self-destruct sequence had been initiated in the divine hall. The ground began to shake violently, and large amounts of bricks and stones started falling from the dome.

"Booming sounds resounded."

The entire divine hall started contracting, as if the complex array, under the domain ghostly creature’s manipulation, was rapidly condensing.

And the figure of the domain ghostly creature also began to shatter inch by inch.

Chu Xiu could sense that his Soul Body was unharmed; he had merely dispersed his consciousness voluntarily. Thus, the boy’s image, born from his consciousness, naturally ceased to exist.

A few minutes later, under Chu Xiu’s watch, the domain ghostly creature’s body finally dissipated entirely. The array on the ground had shrunk to a "chessboard" only ten meters wide, while the rest of the divine hall had turned to ruins.

With a sweeping gesture, Chu Xiu emitted strands of Spiritual Light, causing the "chessboard" to hover in midair, stopping in front of him.

[Inch Ghost Land (Heroic Spirit Legend Artifact): A specially formed "domain" by happenstance. Although this domain cannot restrict enemies from entering or leaving like a complete domain, it can create illusions within the domain to prevent enemies from leaving. Meanwhile, all friendly ghosts within the domain will have their Soul Body recovery speed greatly increased and will automatically generate a duplicated "phantom," which possesses forty percent of the original attributes, with the number depending on the energy status of the domain.]

[Note: This is an independent type of artifact, the Power of which is not affected by the user’s Tier, but during use will consume the Divine Soul Power stored within the artifact. Once the Power is exhausted, the artifact can no longer be used. Current energy: 100/100]

Seeing the attributes before him, Chu Xiu couldn’t help but reveal a look of surprise.

This was an independent artifact not limited by his Tier!

For Chu Xiu now, this was extremely important, and thanks to this characteristic, although it was only a Heroic Spirit Legend, its augmentation strength for the ghostly legion was better than the demigod legend artifact specially left to him by the Celestial King!

More critically, because both are driven by Yin Qi, this domain could perfectly cooperate with the Ghost King’s Ghostly Mist.

Chu Xiu delved into it once more and discovered another surprising aspect.

The artifact, although consumable, could have its energy replenished using Celestial Human Divine Thought.

Since gaining this Mythical Artifact, Chu Xiu had not had much use for it, but now it finally had its moment.

As a result, the battle strength of the ghostly legion was significantly enhanced.

With a gesture, he stowed away the Inch Ghost Land, and Chu Xiu left the now-ruined divine hall with satisfaction.

Outside in the outer world, thirty thousand members of the Demon-Exorcising Race had already settled into the city in an orderly fashion, rapidly dividing the various living areas according to the domain ghostly creature’s previous instructions.

This indeed saved the Jiang Family quite a bit of work.

"Let’s go."

Flying over to Zhao Jie’s side, Chu Xiu said.

Then he looked at Jiang Miaoyin, "Are you staying to manage these Demon-Exorcising Race people?"

"Of course not! What if that Murder Ghost loops back around and attacks me, wouldn’t I be done for?" Jiang Miaoyin shook her head repeatedly.

"I doubt they’d dare to do anything extra. Just let them develop here by themselves for now. They aren’t of much use at the moment, and our Jiang Family isn’t inclined to invest so many resources in purchasing a second Anchor Point."

Chu Xiu nodded. The Jiang Family’s investment in the Demon-Exorcising Race was long-term, requiring years, even decades, to see results. This was something only large families would do.

With that settled, the three of them didn’t waste any more time and began their task of pursuing the Murder Ghost.

Chu Xiu summoned Garuda, and within three hours, they had flown back near the Twilight Realm.

"Brother Zhao, here is where the Murder Ghost previously attacked us."

Zhao Jie nodded, closing his eyes, and in an instant, a dark red eye opened peculiarly on his forehead!

The eye began rotating like it had a life of its own, occasionally casting a glance upon Chu Xiu.

From that eye, Chu Xiu sensed a chilling aura that made him feel uneasy, causing him to involuntarily frown.

Fortunately, the discomfort didn’t last long, and Zhao Jie soon closed the eye on his forehead, saying, "I found it."

Although Chu Xiu had heard of Zhao Jie’s Eye of Past and Future divine technique before, seeing it now was still shocking. The Murder Ghost had only left a wisp of Divine Thought inhabiting a Spirit Puppet when it ambushed him, yet Zhao Jie was able to trace the Murder Ghost’s location just from that.

So could the opponent trace back his true identity through this as well, or was there some unknown limitation to this divine technique?

Chu Xiu had his doubts internally.

Though the thought only surfaced for a moment before he dismissed it, he stopped thinking about it and began operating Garuda according to Zhao Jie’s instructions.

Subsequently, every so often, Zhao Jie would reopen the dark red eye, exuding a mysterious aura to track the Murder Ghost’s movements.

Chu Xiu discovered that after the Spirit Puppet was destroyed, the person did not leave but trailed from afar.

The Murder Ghost even assassinated a member of the Demon-Exorcising Race, attempting to wear his skin to approach Chu Xiu as before when attacking the Divine Power Daoist.

However, after donning the Demon-Exorcising Race’s skin for a short time, the Murder Ghost abandoned the idea of a second assassination attempt on Chu Xiu. Chu Xiu speculated it might be due to differing races, making fusion less effective, leading the Murder Ghost to realize he couldn’t deceive Chu Xiu and thus gave up.

The Murder Ghost did not continue to waste time and turned directly towards an unfamiliar direction.

Thus, tracking the Murder Ghost’s trail for another two or three hours, the three arrived at a deep passageway.

This passage was far from the paths Chu Xiu and his party had taken and was in an area they hadn’t previously explored. Amidst this passage, Chu Xiu felt a persistent chill of discomfort as if something were watching them from the shadows.

"Be careful!"

Suddenly, Zhao Jie shouted, slamming down hard, making Garuda’s massive body pause sharply, but despite this, several blood marks appeared on its wings.

This scene made Chu Xiu squint his eyes.

"These are spatial rifts, something the Murder Ghost loves to create."

"They are extremely tiny, hard to detect without careful observation, and they drift through space."

"Even if they hit, they won’t cause much harm, but they serve as an early warning and interference."

"This should be the Murder Ghost’s ’base’," Zhao Jie said.

Chu Xiu nodded, then surprisingly looked towards Zhao Jie.

In fact, his Divine Sense had also perceived these cracks; it was just that Garuda’s Flying speed was too fast to respond in time.

Chu Xiu hadn’t expected that Zhao Jie’s innate scouting Ability was even stronger than his Divine Sense.

Chu Xiu couldn’t help but praise Zhao Jie, who responded with a laugh, "Brother Qin, you guessed wrong. I didn’t detect those rifts; I simply saw a vision of us being hit by them in the future."

This statement left Chu Xiu marveling silently, gaining a deeper understanding of Zhao Jie’s powerful Ability.

With Zhao Jie’s Talent aiding them, the three evaded numerous traps set by the Murder Ghost until they finally reached the end of the passage.

"The Murder Ghost should be ahead."

Zhao Jie said, proceeding to scout further ahead first.
