Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

This left Chu Xiu both surprised and delighted.

However, amid the surprise and delight, a sense of unease rose in his heart.

"Isn’t my advantage a bit too much?"

"Could the ’Tribulation’ that even the Blood Pool finds insanely difficult be this simple?"

Just as Chu Xiu was frowning in thought, Mu Tuo and the Remaining Demon flew over from afar. Mu Tuo laughed heartily and said, "Brother Zhu, is this the Dao of Extinction rules? To be able to practice such high-tier rules, you must be someone from the Life Domain."

Zhu Jiu smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying, and the two didn’t mind. Since it was the first meeting, hiding one’s civilization was not a big deal, rather being as frank as Xie Xuanzhao was less common.

"Anyway, thanks a lot this time, Brother Zhu, otherwise these creatures would have been tough to handle."

"We are comrades in this trial, no need for thanks," Zhu Jiu waved his hand. "Let’s keep moving. Since these eerie creatures guard this path, there might be a divine artifact at the end."

The other two immediately voiced their agreement.

Looking at the trio, they seemed completely unaware of the secret room concealed by the array.

This was not surprising; without the hint of tribulation qi being attracted, Chu Xiu’s divine sense had also not detected it.

Watching the three prepare to leave, Chu Xiu hesitated slightly before saying, "Wait a moment."

The three were taken aback by his voice, turned their heads to look at him, and Chu Xiu directly flew to the corner he had detected and reached out to touch it.

At once, spiritual power surged, piercing through tens of meters of steel wall, revealing a secret chamber behind it.

Simultaneously, a powerful aura gushed out from within!

Zhu Jiu and the others all revealed looks of surprise, but before they could react, Chu Xiu had already flashed into the secret room.

"What is this?!"

Mu Tuo’s face changed, and he was about to step forward but was grasped by Zhu Jiu.

"Since Brother Chen discovered this place, the divine artifact should indeed belong to him. Brother Chen notified us instead of acquiring it secretly, proving that he is trustworthy."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tuo retracted his steps and said, "What Brother Zhu said is indeed true, I was too hasty."

Then the three quietly waited at the door for Chu Xiu.

It wasn’t long before Chu Xiu came out, holding a small umbrella in his hand. Terrifying power emanated from the umbrella, and its aura even surpassed that of an ordinary Demigod Mythical Equipment! There was no doubt that this was the powerful divine artifact!

Yet for some reason, Chu Xiu’s expression was somewhat peculiar.

"Brother Chen, what’s wrong?" Zhu Jiu, keenly aware of the oddity, inquired.

Chu Xiu fell silent for a moment, then said, "See for yourselves."

With that, he tossed the small umbrella.

[Sevenfold Meat Bone Umbrella (Demigod Myth) (Tribulation Transformation): Greatly enhances the life recovery speed of the holder; provides a shield that can constantly refresh and can simultaneously block mental and physical damages. When near death, it triggers the ’Living Dead Flesh and Bone’ trait, rapidly recovering a large amount of injuries and energy, with a unique tribulation transformation effect.]

[Tribulation Transformation: This item is altered by tribulation, containing a certain amount of rule power. A holder who masters similar rules can activate the tribulation transformation effect.]

[Tribulation Transformation Effect: Reborn from dire straits, after reviving from near-death state, all attributes +100% within a short time. Only a holder who masters life-based laws can use it.]

Upon seeing the attributes of this item, Zhu Jiu and the other two frowned simultaneously.

Looking only at the initial effect, this piece of equipment seems just like an ordinary Demigod Myth.

Mythical Equipment, though it shares the same ’God’ character with deity, is far from being called a divine artifact. Basically, as long as it carries a bit of divine power, it can be termed as Mythical Equipment.

It doesn’t even require a true god; even a Pseudo-God, Star God, or Outer Realm Demon can manufacture one.

So for these civilization envoys from advanced civilizations, owning a piece of Mythical Equipment is nothing special.

However, this equipment’s [Tribulation Transformation] attribute was something they had never seen before!

"Tribulation Transformation, rule power..."

Their expressions were somewhat grave. Looking only at the initial attributes, this equipment is just an ordinary piece, but its tribulation transformation effect is incredibly powerful! Even this effect alone is stronger than a new Mythical Equipment!

However, the condition for use is very stringent; it requires an Awakened who also masters the rule power to use it.

"With three thousand Daos, even if it only requires similar rules, how is that such a mere coincidence? Isn’t this laborious divine artifact just an ordinary Mythical Equipment!" Mu Tuo, with a short fuse, remarked first, face filled with disappointment.

"Not necessarily," the Remaining Demon said.

"Indeed," Zhu Jiu quickly responded, "I’m afraid it isn’t that simple. We have seven civilization envoys, exactly seven divine artifacts. If I am not mistaken, the rules required by these seven divine artifacts should correspond to us one by one."

"Is that so," Mu Tuo seemed to understand, "Right, isn’t Brother Lang Ya just like you, Brother Zhu, from the Life Domain? You life domain civilization envoys practice life laws quite a lot."

"Possibly, I’ll contact and ask now," Zhu Jiu said.

Before coming, everyone had set up communication means, only the metal on this alien starship made communication much more difficult than in the outer world.

According to the technology of his previous life, it was rare for communication distance to exceed one kilometer.

But these civilization envoys, using some high-tech means unknown to him, could completely ignore the metal isolation.

And Zhu Jiu soon got the answer: "Yes, Brother Lang Ya indeed practices the life laws."

"As expected," the Remaining Demon showed a knowing expression.

"In other words, the civilization envoy who cannot correspond with the rules is the Tribulation Participant," Chu Xiu stated.

This was something anyone could think of, so he pointed it out directly.

"Excellent! This way, as long as we gather all the divine artifacts, we can directly lock in on the Tribulation Participant!" Mu Tuo slapped his thigh, somewhat relieved, "Seems like this special trial isn’t that hard, it scared me at first."

The Remaining Demon was also pleased, "Perhaps we worried too much. After all, the higher the difficulty of the Ancient Trials, the lower the pass rate. This peculiar trial might turn out to be easier, only that we’d never seen it, and thus got startled."

Zhu Jiu also showed happiness but still said, "Let us not spread this, lest the Tribulation Participant becomes wary."

The three seemed to already see one million cause and effect points beckoning to them.

Wherever they may be, cause and effect points are extremely precious resources; even for a Tenth-level Civilization envoy, they have few cause and effect points!

While the three were happy, Chu Xiu was furrowing his brows.

But it wasn’t because he was worried about being found by the divine artifact’s special properties. He could just preemptively spend some tribulation poison to strike first, or simply find a place to hide for eight hours.

What puzzled him was the trial’s logic this time around.

Previous trials were all like this, where alien civilization envoys who descended were always meant to raise difficulty.

Not only making civilization envoys directly hostile, but also greatly enhancing these envoys with special rules.

Yet, this trial didn’t start with the seven civilization envoys opposing him; there was an internal struggle that consumed their power, and there was no power enhancement.

More strangely, the creatures in this trial not only did not assist these envoys but had some inexplicable restraint against them! On the contrary, Chu Xiu was not afraid of the tribulation poison!

Even if Chu Xiu forcibly broke through before not passing the tribulation thunder, he would inevitably possess the trait of the Tribulation Body. The tribulation poison from Wang’s Tribulation could do him no harm.

There were many strange aspects, like although special divine artifacts were given for the civilization envoys, Chu Xiu with the Tribulation Body found them easier. If he preemptively gathered the seven divine artifacts, wouldn’t they instead become his support?

Plus, the pass conditions were particularly lenient. Besides defeating the boss, there was a backup option of simply waiting out a certain time.

This does not resemble a tribulation trying painstakingly to place him in mortal danger; rather, it seems as if it’s trying in various ways to lessen his difficulty.

Many questions emerged in Chu Xiu’s mind, making it difficult for him to decide exactly how to act next.

Should he continue collecting divine artifacts? Or should he find a way out earlier to explore intelligence and understand the trial’s logic?

"Brother Chen, since you found the divine artifact, you keep it until we meet Brother Lang Ya."

"Brother Chen, your detection ability is ingenious, we’ll have to trouble you more going forward!"

Just as Chu Xiu was about to think ahead, Zhu Jiu chimed in cheerfully.

Chu Xiu came back to himself and nodded gently.
