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

Chapter 96 Corpse Demon Spider Mother
Shen Tu Hu and Chu Qin never dreamed that Chu Xiu's real plan was like this!

Even if Chu Xiu told them this to their faces, Chu Qin would just laugh it off as a joke, while Shen Tu Hu would most likely laugh it off as if he were watching a clown.

Because this is insane!
At night, the power of the ghouls increases dramatically!

Even if they command hundreds of people, they would never dare to risk hunting warrior-level creatures at night, let alone their nests!
Each lair guarantees at least one elite warrior-level creature! And its level is definitely not low! Furthermore, it contains a large number of high-ranking ghouls that have undergone evolutionary mutations and serve as "guards"!
As for the number of ordinary ghouls, it can only be described as terrifying! There are easily thousands!
Faced with that vast, ocean-like horde of corpses, even warrior-level awakened beings wouldn't last long! If they stubbornly fought head-on, even if they poured all their lives into it, it might not be enough!

In reality, eradicating a nest requires extensive preparation beforehand.

The stronghold contained many deadly weapons acquired at great expense.

For example, heavy machine guns, incendiary bombs, and fragmentation grenades that drop from the [Minecraft Apocalypse] world, and corrosive acid and exploding fireflies that drop from the [Super Evolution] world.

Some were funded by the government, while others were purchased by various powerful entities themselves.

These things aren't cheap, because only items that have generated panels can be sent to other worlds.

For example, you can't just take a gun off a mech and bring it back to Earth. You can only take it with you if you're lucky enough to "drop" the gun as an item.

Therefore, the use of each weapon must be carefully planned, specifying who will be responsible for fire support and who will be responsible for demolition and cutting off the retreat route. Only by making a detailed action plan can the losses be minimized.

As for one person destroying the nest?
That's a complete fantasy!
Even Ye Junlin and Lin Wanyue didn't think they had a chance to do it!
Not to mention, it was during the dead of night when the Shiki were at their strongest!

At this moment, Chu Xiu was already standing in front of a nest.

This is an office building with a huge area, but unlike the apartment building where Chu Xiu descended, there are a lot of deformed flesh and blood on the first floor. This flesh and blood merged with the reinforced concrete building to form a visible flesh and blood nest.

Even from hundreds of meters away, Chu Xiu could smell the astonishing stench emanating from it.

At this moment, a large number of ghouls were lurking near the lair. They lay prostrate on the ground, sniffing around like dogs, searching for traces of food.

A solemn expression flashed across Chu Xiu's face.

Although he acted extremely boldly, he never let his guard down.

Even for him, soloing the night's lair was a considerable challenge!

"We can't just rush in like we did before this time."

"If I get surrounded, thousands of ghouls can wear me down to death!"

After observing carefully for a while, Chu Xiu quickly finalized his plan.

He first set up the White Bone Blood Devouring Array in advance, then ordered all the ghosts to scatter and surround the entire lair, slowly hunting down any lone corpses from the outermost perimeter to reduce their numbers.

These ordinary ghouls may just be cannon fodder, but their sheer number can be quite troublesome.

"Pfft!"

A ghost materialized from the shadows and bit into the neck of a ghoul. The ghoul didn't even have time to scream before its neck was severed.

With a rustling sound, dozens of ghostly creatures moved swiftly in the shadows, hunting down lone ghouls.

The encirclement quickly shrank, and within a minute or two, hundreds of ghouls were hunted down!

At this moment, one of the ghouls finally noticed something was wrong. This was an elite mortal-level ghoul. It smelled the strong stench of blood in the air, suddenly turned around, and let out a sharp screech to the sky!

The scream was like a warning alarm. As the sound dissipated into the distance, the entire lair erupted in chaos, with a large number of ghouls surging out from the entrance, a mixture of flesh and steel!

They pushed and shoved each other, jostling together as they charged out like countless enraged and irrational wild beasts!

However, Chu Xiu was not afraid at all when he saw this scene. Instead, he showed a confident smile. Just as the horde of corpses rushed out of their lair, five Yin Wind Blades that had been fully charged in advance shot out!

These five Yin Wind Blades were nearly three meters wide! Their power was far beyond that of ordinary Yin Wind Blades released by Yin Ghosts. They were like five scythes of death, instantly slicing a large number of corpse ghosts in half!
Blood splattered everywhere, and as far as the eye could see, there were corpses cut in half!

However, Chu Xiu had already ordered five fierce ghosts to guard the entrance. As soon as the corpse ghosts appeared, they would use the Yin Wind Blade to strangle them!

After upgrading to the Ferocious Ghost, its Yin Wind Blade skill has reached perfect proficiency, and in its soul form, it has an additional 30% power boost! The energy it contains is extremely terrifying!
The entrance to the lair is not wide, which is just right to unleash the power of the Yin Wind Blade!
Furthermore, he divided these fierce ghosts into three groups, which, together with more than a dozen Yin ghosts, formed a well-coordinated crossfire network to block the corpse ghosts rushing out of the entrance!

Even if some manage to break through, they will be instantly torn to pieces by the other ghosts guarding the vicinity!

As time went by, the power of the Bone Blood Devouring Array grew stronger and stronger, and these corpse demons had even less of a chance. Even the elite corpse demons were killed instantly when they appeared under the combined attack of hordes of ghosts!
Not to mention, Chu Xiu was also watching closely from the side, occasionally using his Berserk Demon Hand to eliminate any difficult opponents.

A few minutes later, the entrance to the nest became completely silent.

Chu Xiu glanced at the table; he had killed at least five hundred corpse demons in this wave!

Corpses were piled up at the entrance, and the black blood almost formed a small river.

With a wave of his hand, Chu Xiu began to refine the vast number of corpses. The flesh merged into the Fiend Soul Banner, while the living souls became nourishment for the Yin Ghosts.

Chu Xiu seemed to hear the screams and shrieks of countless remnant souls. So many corpses and dead souls had given rise to yin energy in this place, and ordinary people would fall ill after staying here for just one night.

In the constant fighting and devouring, grotesque ghosts are born in the soul banner, and some high-potential ghosts advance into fierce ghosts.

These six hundred corpse demons, including many elites, gave birth to a fierce demon and a total of fourteen yin demons!
The overall level has also been improved.

This made Chu Xiu show a satisfied expression.

"This is the terrifying aspect of the Supreme Demon Lord: using war to fuel war! For me, battle is not a drain, but an enhancement!"

“But the real challenge is yet to come.” Chu Xiu stroked his chin and looked towards the nest.

The truly powerful ghouls did not emerge.

The ruler of this lair, along with his samurai-class servants, are enhanced and mutated ghouls who serve as his personal guards.

Whether they are sleeping deeper in their nests or have developed a higher level of intelligence and are unwilling to leave their home ground to fight, it is unclear.

Chu Xiu naturally wouldn't let this easy target slip by, so what followed was a tough battle to penetrate deep into the lair.

He let out a long breath, and two demonic hands appeared behind him, like two shields protecting Chu Xiu in the middle.

He then stepped forward and led his army of ghosts into the lair.

"Clap."

As the Boots of Speed ​​stepped onto the mixture of flesh and blood, a sticky sensation immediately spread under Chu Xiu's feet, making him feel nauseous.

Upon entering the lair, the stench intensified, as if hundreds of corpses were locked inside and then heated and fermented at a high temperature of fifty degrees Celsius.

Suppressing his nausea, Chu Xiu pointed forward, and immediately a large number of ghosts rushed towards the depths of the lair.

Under Chu Xiu's command, the ghosts searched downwards in three-person combat teams, maintaining a reasonable distance from each other so that even if attacked, different ghosts could provide timely support. With this well-coordinated approach, the scattered ghouls at the lair's entrance were quickly eliminated.

However, as they delved deeper, an unexpected incident occurred.

When they reached about the third floor of the parking lot, a dark shadow hanging upside down from the ceiling suddenly fell. Before Chu Xiu could react, one of his Yin Ghosts was torn to pieces!

This is a warrior-class ghoul! It has four slender limbs on its back, like a swift and venomous spider. After killing the ghoul, it leaped up to the ceiling, crawled on all fours, and quickly disappeared into the depths of its lair.

"So, there have finally been casualties?"

Watching the Yin Ghosts being torn apart in the blink of an eye, Chu Xiu was not greatly affected. Losses were inevitable in such a tough battle, and the current Yin Ghosts were easy for him to replenish, as long as the fierce ghosts did not die.

With this in mind, he simply transformed all the fierce ghosts into their spirit forms, only responsible for providing support with spells such as Yin Wind Blade Earth Binding Technique, leaving the hand-to-hand combat to the ghosts!

After making thorough preparations, Chu Xiu led the ghost army down to the last level!
Almost as soon as the Yin Ghost, who was in charge of scouting, stepped out of the rotating driveway, several dark figures pounced on him and immediately engaged him in battle!
Moreover, it was as if they had planned it all along. Some of them were responsible for clearing the way, while others bypassed the other ghosts from different directions and rushed towards Chu Xiu at the same time!

"Humph!"

Chu Xiu snorted coldly, and the Berserk Heavenly Demon Hand, which had been ready to be unleashed, exploded out!

"Oh!"

With a loud bang, the attacking black shadow was crushed, its bones broken, and it flew backward like a kite with a broken string!

At the same time, the panel data appeared in Chu Xiu's eyes.

【Type 013 Corpse Demon (Mutant)】

[Rank] Mortal Rank 9

[Attributes] Constitution 19.4, Spirit?, Energy Level?
[Skill] Venomous Sting

【Characteristics】Venomous fangs, lightweight structure

[Talent] Exoskeleton Limbs (Four extra exoskeletons grow on the back, greatly enhancing mobility and enabling projectile attacks; the tips contain potent venom)
"These mutated ghouls must be the guards of this lair boss."

Just as Chu Xiu was pondering this, figures began to move in the darkness, making a chilling "pat-pat" sound as their limbs landed on the concrete wall, like countless giant spiders crawling in the underground parking lot!
Suddenly, a large number of dark shadows fell from the ceiling. There were so many of these ghouls that it was like a rain of spiders!
At the same time, many ordinary ghouls also launched attacks from all directions!
"Well done!"

Chu Xiu roared and charged into the horde of corpses, brandishing his berserk demonic hand. His two enormous arms ravaged the horde, swinging and smashing, shattering the internal organs and bones of any corpse that touched them!
At the same time, with a bone spear in his right hand and a Yin Wind Banner in his left, every thrust he makes will take a life!

Dozens of Yin ghosts also began to fight back under the cover of the fierce ghosts. Although these mutated corpse ghosts were strong, their numbers were not large. After withstanding the first wave, the pressure was much less.

Meanwhile, Chu Xiu had fought his way to the deepest part of the cave. Accompanied by a piercing shriek, a huge black shadow flashed across the ceiling. It was an even larger "spider" with more than twenty limbs extending from its back! Strange purple patterns were painted on its huge belly.

This is an elite Servant of Rank 8! Its attributes, traits, and talents are similar to the mutated ghouls mentioned earlier, but it is much stronger!

Chu Xiu knew that in the face of creatures of this strength, Yin Ghosts and Fierce Ghosts would suffer heavy losses if they clashed, and he needed to deal with them personally!

Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Xiu leaped up, breaking free from the protection of the ghost army, and charged towards the Spider Mother Corpse Ghost!
The two berserk demon hands were like trucks clearing the way, constantly crushing the corpse demons blocking their path!
However, the Heavenly Demon Hand is not invincible.

A warrior-level ghoul that had been lurking for a long time suddenly sprang up from the shadows. While the other ghouls were being used as cannon fodder to distract the Heavenly Demon Hand, it quickly approached Chu Xiu from behind, and at the same time, its limbs suddenly stabbed out from behind!

"clang!"

With a loud metallic clang, Chu Xiu felt a sharp pain in his side. Looking down, he saw that the white bone armor plates on his waist and abdomen had cracked!

He was injured for the first time after entering the abyss!

If his status were displayed as health points, it would have dropped from about 100% to 99.8%!

"I'm still not strong enough."

With a sigh, Chu Xiu swung his spear and precisely pierced the head of the attacking corpse demon.

This injury did not deter Chu Xiu; on the contrary, it greatly increased his fighting spirit!
With the Heavenly Demon Hand protecting him, it had been a long time since any monster had been able to harm him, rendering his Perfect Bone Armor and Elder of Pain's Robe completely useless.

But in reality, Chu Xiu's defense is stronger than his attack!

He had been somewhat restrained before because he wanted to remain uninjured, but now it didn't matter anymore.

With a roar, Chu Xiu completely ignored the attacks from those below the Warrior rank and charged towards the Spider Mother Corpse Demon!

Ten minutes later, the underground parking lot was littered with broken exoskeleton limbs, and the walls were covered with mangled corpses that had been blasted away by the monstrous force and stuck to the concrete walls.

The colossal body of the Corpse Spider Queen darted through the parking lot, its body riddled with small holes pierced by the Bone-Piercing Nails, from which dark green blood mixed with toxins was constantly flowing. Half of its limbs had been severed, and most of its carapace had been shattered, leaving a terrifying fist-shaped mark on it.

A figure silently pursued it from behind.

It was a figure draped in a long robe and wearing pale bone armor. His entire body was soaked in the blood of the ghouls, and he had completely turned into a blood-soaked man. His white bone armor had many cracks, and some plates were even shattered, leaving wounds on his back.

The two were very different in size, and the human figure was not in perfect condition, but the Corpse Spider Mother seemed to have encountered a natural enemy and had no intention of resisting. She only cared about fleeing for her life, while screaming for the other guards to protect her.

Unfortunately, no one was able to respond.

The ground was littered with corpses; the huge parking lot had been completely transformed into a hellish scene, devoid of any living creature.

Finally, the Corpse Spider Mother was cornered. Under its terrified gaze, Chu Xiu strolled forward, and the Berserk Demon Hand appeared behind him, like the sky-covering wings of a demon.

Blood, like magma, surged in the hands of the Heavenly Demon. Amidst the terrified screams of the Corpse Demon Spider Mother, Chu Xiu raised his hand expressionlessly and unleashed a punch!
"Oh!"

The Corpse Spider Mother's abdomen was blasted open, like a bursting watermelon, and dark green blood and bits of flesh covered the walls within a ten-meter radius.

Then, a pleasant notification sound rang in Chu Xiu's ears.
