Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

"Bang!"

Chu Xiu punched out, instantly sending that General ghost flying hundreds of meters away, leaving a trail in the ground like it had been plowed.

Pure Yin Qi cannot condense into a Soul Body, so most ghosts actually have a form. Even in Soul Body state, ghosts can be harmed by physical attacks, though the damage is much less.

However, the Yin Qi here is so dense that almost every ghost’s Soul Body has become fully substantial.

Of course, ghosts are ghosts after all; their special internal structures won’t have organs like normal creatures. Inside, they mostly have only a few critical cores.

After taking a punch from Chu Xiu, the chest cavity of the tall General ghost was completely caved in, looking like a flattened tire.

Yet despite such a severe injury, it acted as if it felt nothing, its blood-red, resentful eyes staring unblinkingly at Chu Xiu!

Even with a significant power gap, that look of deep-seated hatred still sent shivers down Chu Xiu’s spine.

Clearly, before this, the ghost had always been quite gentle and mild.

Everything changed after it saw that Stone Bead!

Chu Xiu’s gaze was heavy, his body leaping forward to catch up with the General ghost flying back.

This punch was naturally Chu Xiu holding back; otherwise, he could have easily destroyed its entire Soul Body.

He was very curious about what caused such a change.

"Calm down!"

Golden flames ignited in Chu Xiu’s eyes, trying to calm the ghost.

However, for some reason, this spiritual suppression, capable of momentarily stunning even Heroic Spirits, had no effect on the ghost, which immediately lunged at Chu Xiu as soon as it hit the ground!

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Demonic Qi turned into blades, severing the ghost’s limbs, but it still writhed, manipulating the nearby Yin Qi to approach Chu Xiu, trying to tear at his neck with its teeth!

This scene made Chu Xiu frown deeply. After a slight hesitation, Chu Xiu transformed the Demonic Qi, ending the ghost.

Even in death, the ghost continued to glare at him with unwavering hatred that Chu Xiu could clearly feel.

But how could this be possible? Just one Stone Bead, why such a drastic change?

Chu Xiu furrowed his brows tightly, and at this moment, the ghosts responsible for guarding from afar came running over, staring in shock at the completely dispersed Soul Body of the General ghost, as if witnessing such a scene for the first time.

"Fellow cultivator, this is..."

Chu Xiu was silent for a moment. With a flip of his wrist, the Stone Bead reappeared in his palm.

"I wonder if you know..."

Before finishing the sentence, Chu Xiu stopped.

He looked around at the eyes gradually turning red and sighed softly.

This time he didn’t ask more questions; Demonic Qi surged out, devouring the ghosts in front of him.

...

These ghosts could also drop experience and Cause and Effect Points, and not at a low amount.

However, Chu Xiu didn’t show too much joy; instead, he kept pondering the mystery of the Stone Bead.

After a long sigh, he finally decided to return to You City first.

These ghosts going mad upon seeing the Stone Bead might only be explained by an Immortal.

But just as he was about to put the Stone Bead away, his face changed again.

The Stone Bead couldn’t be stored in the Storage Space!

Thinking a bit, Chu Xiu tucked the Stone Bead into his chest, then lit the Guiding Lamp and stepped back forty steps as per the instructions from the Immortal Palace ghost.

Upon opening his eyes again, he still saw a ground full of shattered Soul Bodies before him.

Chu Xiu pondered for a while, seeming to understand something. This time, he completely withdrew his Divine Sense, blocking out his perception entirely.

He didn’t need even forty steps; at the twenty-eighth step, he felt a weight lift off his body, as if the surrounding environment had changed.

The dense Death Qi dissipated significantly.

When he opened his eyes, the towering Holy Mountain in the distance was already visible before him.

This made Chu Xiu look thoughtful.

After pondering in place for a while, Chu Xiu didn’t enter the city; instead, he chose a spot outside to sit cross-legged, took out some recovery Artifacts, and used them to restore his expended Power through meditation.

This place was quite strange, and Chu Xiu planned to ensure he was always in peak condition to deal with possible changes. At the same time, he didn’t want to draw too much attention by having killed so many Scavengers in such a short time.

But it seemed he was overthinking.

Three days later, in perfect condition, Chu Xiu walked into the Immortal Palace, submitted his mission.

The Immortal Palace ghost was indeed shocked but bore no malice and had no plans to report upwards.

Instead, he showed a look of admiration and respectfully gave Chu Xiu his deserved reward.

This time, he had killed nearly three hundred Scavengers and two Death Souls, earning nearly a hundred jin of Yin Stones in total.

The reward for mapping was even more astonishing; perhaps no one had ever expanded the map so much at once, earning an incredible one hundred and sixty jin of Yin Stones directly.

Altogether, two hundred and sixty jin of Yin Stones were rewarded, whereas the total stock of this Immortal Palace barely totaled two hundred jin, forcing them to call in from other Immortal Palaces.

Chu Xiu took the opportunity to propose trading equivalent value materials in lieu of Yin Stones, and the ghosts here were genuinely kind-hearted with no extra thoughts, agreeing immediately without hesitation.

Thus, Chu Xiu directly started selecting from the Immortal Palace’s treasury, directly gathering over half the materials needed to refine the Myriad Filth Returning Origin Bag in one go.
