An invasion from the Abyss? I, a demonic cultivator, laughed.

Chapter 366 Saint
As Chu Xiu finished speaking, the Holy Maiden gave him a strange look, her face slightly twitching beneath her veil, but she ultimately said nothing.

Immortal Lord Changqing's eyes flashed with joy, and he said with a smile, "In that case, please come with us, fellow Daoist."

Under the envious gazes of the surrounding ghosts, Chu Xiu followed the two out. Outside the Immortal Palace, there was a huge beast-drawn carriage, as big as a treasure ship, with four ferocious-looking strange beasts crawling in front of it.

Each one possesses an extremely powerful aura, making them all King-level!

Ordinary ghosts would be injured by their malevolent aura just by getting close to them, but Chu Xiu was not afraid at all and calmly stepped into the carriage, which made Changqing Immortal Lord's eyes flash with a strange light.

Soon, the beast-drawn carriage landed at the Celestial Palace headquarters not far away.

As soon as Chu Xiu got out of the car, he sensed two hidden auras. These two auras were extremely powerful, much stronger than Changqing Immortal Lord, but they did not seem to have cultivated any profound concealment techniques. In addition, Chu Xiu's divine soul was extremely vast at the moment, and he easily discovered the other party by relying on the mysteries of divine sense.

Without making a sound, he walked straight into the celestial palace.

Passing through an archway, one sees a Taoist priest with white hair and a youthful face, exuding an air of otherworldly grace, standing in the center. Compared to the ethereal Changqing Immortal Lord, this Taoist priest possesses an imposing aura that commands respect without anger. Chu Xiu felt an overwhelming pressure as soon as he entered the room.

Immortal Lord Changqing and the Holy Maiden bowed respectfully. Chu Xiu knew that his abnormality had already been exposed, so he simply stood still and gave a perfunctory cupped-hand salute.

Seeing this, the Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable sneered: "This fellow Daoist is quite extraordinary."

Chu Xiu ignored him and turned directly to the saintess, asking, "Where is what I asked for?"

The saintess coughed lightly, lowered her head, and did not reply. Clearly, although she was a saintess, her status was still insignificant in front of these immortals.

The Immortal Venerable of Mountains and Seas seemed to have known the news beforehand. With a flick of his wrist, a gelatinous substance as smooth and lustrous as jellyfish skin appeared in front of him.

Chu Xiu's eyes lit up slightly.

The protective shield of this mythical beast is of even better quality than he had imagined!
With just a sweep of his divine sense, he was certain that this was absolutely the best material for refining the Myriad Impurities Returning to Origin Bag! It was far superior to what the previous Immortal Lord had brought out!
"It might even be possible to refine a mid-grade Myriad Filth Returning to Origin Bag!"

All the inheritances of the Demon Lord of Many Treasures are divided into nine grades, from one to nine.

However, when converting to the algorithm in the abyss, the level of the inheritance itself needs to be considered.

This Myriad Filth Returning to Origin Bag is a magic treasure for the Nascent Soul stage. If Chu Xiu's estimation is correct, it should correspond to a powerful demigod.

The reason why it is so vague is that Chu Xiu does not yet understand the correspondence between the cultivator's cultivation system and the abyss. Logically speaking, it should be that heroic spirits correspond to golden core cultivators, and demigods correspond to nascent soul cultivators. However, after reading some records, he felt that even a cultivator who has just entered the nascent soul stage is far stronger than an ordinary demigod, but has not yet reached the level of a god.

Therefore, the only way to describe it is as a powerful demigod.

"A mid-grade Myriad Filth Returning to Origin Bag. Its rank could potentially reach the legendary demigod level!"

Although it is only a demigod legend, like the Ten Directions Netherfire Array and the Four Symbols Yin-Yang Furnace, this kind of immortal cultivation magic weapon refined by Chu Xiu is not subject to the rules of the abyss, that is, the restriction of rank, and only depends on the strength of Chu Xiu's own body.

Furthermore, the unique feature of this treasure is that its power mainly depends on the poisonous gas and miasma it absorbs. After absorbing enough death energy, its quality can be further refined and improved. It wouldn't be surprising if it were to be upgraded to a demigod myth or even higher.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu's eyes burned with desire.

However, the Immortal Venerable of Mountains and Seas flipped his wrist and put the "Heart-Protecting Screen" away again.

Chu Xiu didn't say much, only calmly saying, "Name your price."

The Immortal Venerable of Mountains and Seas chuckled and said, "This price isn't too expensive. It just depends on whether you're willing to pay it, fellow Daoist."

"what?"

"Three questions."

The Mountain and Sea Immortal looked at Chu Xiu, his powerful soul locking onto him firmly: "As long as you answer three questions for me, this Heart-Protecting Screen will be given to you for free."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu chuckled and stretched his shoulder.

"No need to go to such trouble."

The Immortal Venerable of Mountains and Seas was still waiting for his reply when, without warning, he reached out with his left hand!

In an instant, the surging demonic energy transformed into a giant dragon in mid-air, opening its blood-red maw to devour the Mountain and Sea Immortal!

The giant dragon approached with incredible speed, reaching the Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable in the blink of an eye! The Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable was both shocked and furious. He pointed forward with his index and middle fingers together, releasing a ray of energy condensed from death, which precisely pierced the dragon's head!

Chu Xiu raised an eyebrow. He could sense that the deathly aura was similar to that in the Carrion Cave. It was also a type of mutated deathly aura, but it was more condensed than ordinary deathly aura and had special effects.

"Is this the fighting method of the immortals here?"

It was truly extraordinary. The demonic energy struck by that ray melted away quickly, like ice and snow thrown onto a hot pan, making a sizzling sound.

However, how could the methods of a top-tier demonic inheritance stop there?
With a flick of his wrist, Chu Xiu completely disintegrated the torn dragon, which then reformed into hundreds of spears in less than a fraction of a second!
The Immortal Venerable of Mountains and Seas was shocked. His Daoist robe billowed wildly, and a massive amount of special death energy surged out like a tide. Even so, his soul was still pierced by at least four spears!

The Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable let out a miserable scream. The demonic energy, upon contact with his soul, was like a raging fire, scorching his body!
"Fellow Daoist, please help me!"

With a loud shout, the Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable sent two equally powerful auras rising behind Chu Xiu. Chu Xiu saw a savage beast formed from death energy descending from the sky, while on the other side, a treasure bottle that continuously emitted large amounts of death energy rays floated in the air!

The two Immortal Venerables lying in ambush outside had clearly realized Chu Xiu's strength and immediately used their killing moves!
However, Chu Xiu didn't care at all. He had already discovered the two, so how could he not have made any preparations?
The Chiwen appeared in his hand, and he slashed upwards!
The surging sword energy, like a destructive torrent, instantly engulfed and pulverized the beast and the treasure bottle! Neither of them had the slightest ability to resist!

Two screams came from afar, and the two souls that had attacked the ghosts were visibly weakening!
In fact, these three immortal venerables are already quite powerful.

Because the ghosts that can ascend the sacred mountain here have extremely refined souls, their strength surpasses that of ordinary heroic spirits after they enter the ranks of heroic spirits.

Immortal Lords are already powerful heroic spirits, and Immortal Venerables are not far from being top-tier heroic spirits.

Unfortunately, they encountered Chu Xiu.

This is Chu Xiu, who is already capable of directly confronting the vast majority of demigods!
Not to mention, after mastering the Yama Sutra, the Yin energy here no longer poses any obstacle to him, allowing him to unleash his full strength!

Dealing with just three Heroic Spirits is a piece of cake.
The others were clearly not expecting Chu Xiu to be so terrifying! Immortal Lord Changqing stood frozen in shock, the Saintess's red lips beneath her veil parted slightly, and Immortal Venerable Shanhai roared incredulously, "Who exactly are you?!"

Chu Xiu, of course, wouldn't waste words with him. He turned his sword around, and Chiwen was already pointing at the Immortal Venerable of Mountains and Seas!
This scene terrified the other party, who rushed into the sky without the slightest hesitation!

The other two Immortal Venerables and Immortal Lord Changqing were no different. Cracks appeared in the sky above Youcheng, spewing out deathly energy. Clearly, these were the teleportation channels leading to Penglai Immortal Realm! The four ghosts were like mice fleeing into the sewers after being discovered by a tabby cat!
Chu Xiu smiled faintly and said, "I haven't given you my items yet. Where are you in such a hurry, fellow Daoist?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pointed his finger, and it seemed as if an invisible scythe was shooting out! The teleportation channel was already in front of the Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable, but he suddenly straightened his chest upwards, as if he had been pierced by something invisible!
The next moment, under his horrified gaze, his soul body was uncontrollably pulled backward, and was finally pulled directly in front of Chu Xiu!
"you"

It seemed to want to say something more, but Chu Xiu didn't give it a chance to speak and shattered its soul body with a single punch!

[Slaying a creature grants +2151 experience]

[Item Obtained: 129012 Causality Points]

[Item Obtained:]

A large number of items burst out of its soul body. Chu Xiu glanced at them and found many special magic treasures and materials, including the Heart-Protecting Screen. The rest were also very valuable, and any one of them could easily sell for tens of billions.

This brought a satisfied smile to Chu Xiu's face.

With a wave of his hand, the entire soul of the Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable was absorbed into the Soul Banner.

The main consciousness was kept to slowly extract information, while the rest of the soul naturally became nourishment for the ghosts.

This expensive ghost item is the ultimate tonic for his ghost.

Unfortunately, the other ghosts ran away quickly, giving Chu Xiu no chance to make another move.

His sword energy could naturally kill it, but it would also shatter its soul along with it. He couldn't bear to part with such a good tonic.

"We can find them slowly once we get to Penglai."

"As for now."

Chu Xiu turned his head and looked at the "Holy Maiden" who was still standing in the same spot, without moving.

"You led me here, and if you can't offer a satisfactory explanation, don't blame me for being ruthless," Chu Xiu said expressionlessly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiu exuded a faint pressure. If the pressure from the Mountain and Sea Immortal Venerable was a tiger bluffing, then the aura emanating from Chu Xiu was the confidence of someone who had long held a high position and truly wielded the power of life and death!

To Chu Xiu's surprise, the saintess showed little fear in the face of his threat. She merely smiled wryly in shock and asked, "Senior Chen, why is it that every time I see you, your strength seems to improve by such a rapid pace?"

After saying that, she removed the veil from her face, revealing a slightly pale face that, while not stunningly beautiful, possessed a unique intellectual charm.

It was Su Jinyu!
Chu Xiu was also somewhat stunned. He never expected to encounter this woman here! And she had even become a saintess!

Su Jinyu clearly knew he must have many doubts in his heart, and said, "I meant no harm. I just wanted to remind you that there are three Immortal Venerables nearby, so that you would not act rashly. Who would have thought that your strength would have advanced to such a level?"

As she said this, Su Jinyu's face still showed undisguised shock. The last time she saw Chu Xiu, he had wreaked havoc in Pengcheng, which was enough to horrify her.

However, back then, the opponent was no match for a demigod. But now, even disregarding his other methods, his physical form alone is undoubtedly that of a demigod! And not just any ordinary demigod!

The speed at which his strength has increased
When Su Jinyu recalled their first meeting, when the other party was only a King-level fighter, she felt completely numb.

She had recognized Chu Xiu's demonic aura earlier, and in her surprise, she originally only wanted to send a message to let him leave first before making any further plans.

Who would have thought that Chu Xiu would directly charge forward, taking on three opponents single-handedly, and casually annihilating the three Immortal Venerables who were extremely powerful in her eyes.

Shaking her head, Su Jinyu suppressed her shock and quickly transmitted her voice, "If you tear off the mask this time, the Immortal Emperor will not let you off. The Immortal Emperor's strength is far beyond that of other immortals."

"This is not the place to talk, let's go."

Chu Xiu nodded. He wasn't arrogant enough to want to fight the enemy here. He believed Su Jinyu's words; the soul he encountered in the Immortal Stele was indeed extremely powerful.

At this moment, a deafening thunderclap resounded in the sky, exactly the same as the thunder that had sounded near the Immortal Stele earlier. Chu Xiu summoned Garuda, grabbed Su Jinyu, and rushed out of Youcheng, intending to use the spatial rules of this place to shake off the pursuers first.

However, when they reached the outside of the city, Chu Xiu seemed to remember something, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Since we've already completely fallen out, let's escalate things a bit further."

He reached out with his left hand, and demonic energy surged forth, forming a giant hand in the air that directly grabbed at the Inheritance Immortal Stele standing outside the city!

To Su Jinyu's astonishment, the demonic hand directly grabbed the Inheritance Immortal Stele!

In an instant, the immortal tablet burst forth with spiritual light, as if activating some kind of defense mechanism, causing the demonic hand to quickly dissolve.

But Chu Xiu only snorted lightly, and even more demonic energy surged out as if it were endless, completely suppressing the spiritual light of the Immortal Stele!

A roar came from the sky, and a huge crack opened up above Youcheng, as if some creature was about to rush out of it!

This terrifying scene caused all the ghosts in the entire ghost city to look around in fear, wondering what had happened.

At that moment, a huge beast claw emerged from the crack!
Just as it was about to descend, the Inheritance Immortal Stele seemed to finally give way and was forcibly pulled up by Chu Xiu amidst a mournful cry!

Chu Xiu let out a loud laugh, and without further hesitation, he poured the power of gods and demons into Garuda and fled towards the outside of the city with all his might!

"boom!"

The enormous beast claw landed on the ground, leaving five deep ravine-like fissures where the immortal stele had originally stood. Countless ghosts that couldn't escape in time were crushed to pieces.

However, Chu Xiu had already disappeared from the spot.

Fifteen minutes later, Chu Xiu, who had completely moved away from Youcheng, stopped.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Su Jinyu was enveloped by a soft force and fell to the ground.

Chu Xiu lowered his gaze and said calmly, "Alright, now you can tell me what exactly happened, right?"
