Abyss invasion? As a demon cultivator, I laughed.

Disaster's lair was very far away from the shelter. After leaving the plantation area, Chu Xiu found that it was already the last floor of the shelter. However, behind a very thick and damaged explosion-proof door, he found a way out. The path to deeper depths.

This road is not spacious. It can only accommodate an armored vehicle. It is very rugged and full of protruding rocks. It does not look like it was excavated by an excavating machine such as a shield machine, but rather like a powerful Awakened One. , built by blasting rocks with brute force.

After walking along this road for twenty or thirty kilometers, Chu Xiu arrived at the end.

This is a huge naturally formed cavity. At this depth, you can already feel the heat of the underground lava. It is estimated that if you dig a few kilometers further, you can dig out the boiling magma.

At the end of the cave, there is a huge dark cave. This cave is hundreds of meters high, like a big mouth from the abyss. At this time, there are many corrupt creatures climbing around the cave, like countless A beetle that only moves "whisperingly".

"These corrupt residents are all vicious!"

Chu Xiu was a little shocked.

It is extremely difficult to upgrade corrupted residents, and even millions of them may not be able to give birth to a single vicious one.

And compared to the corrupted residents of the outside world, the rock armor on their bodies is actually light golden, which makes them look particularly magical.

"No further, outsider."

"My proposal is still valid now, but when you enter the cave, there will be no turning back. You will awaken a terrifying existence that even I cannot control." Calamity's deep voice sounded in Chu Xiu's ears.

Chu Xiu turned his head and looked at the figure who had been chattering next to him. It was a humanoid manifested by disaster. He looked like a rather calm middle-aged man, with an extremely serious expression on his face at this time.

However, Chu Xiu just said calmly: "If you really want to negotiate terms with me, just explain the cause and effect clearly."

"Do you really think that I will be frightened by the Riddler's tricks like yours?"

Chu Xiu's words made Calamity pause, and he said after a while: "I can't tell you what the trump card I hold is, otherwise it will lose all meaning, and I can't tell you what will happen when you step into the cave, because that is Secrets that touch upon my 'core'."

"But what I can tell you is that even if your strength exceeds my expectations, forcing entry will only lead to destruction."

"Although you have great power, your level is still too low after all, and you know too little about the existence of our level, which will lead to your misjudgment."

"[Heroic Spirits] are existences at another level of life."

"Trust me, working with me will be the best choice for you."

Disaster's words made Chu Xiu pause, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

I have to say, its behavior is quite bluffing.

"Is it a ploy to delay time? Or is it really something?"

Chu Xiu raised his head and stared at the huge cave in front of him, with a rare hesitation.

Generally speaking, he will be prepared before making a plan, and will no longer hesitate after making a plan, so that he will not be frightened by a few baseless words.

But Calamity has indeed touched upon his weakness. He currently has too little understanding of higher-level beings.

In fact, Chu Xiu's strength improved too quickly, and his status, information, and intelligence had not kept up.

But fortunately, he now carries a "superior being" with him.

"Rasputin, what do you think? Can you blood demons swear to the boundless pool of blood without any scruples in order to deceive the enemy?" Chu Xiu asked after releasing Rasputin.

Calamity's eyes on the side immediately shone with greedy light, while Rasputin's expression changed drastically, and he quickly shouted: "Lord! Don't be deceived by this despicable villain! That bitch in the boundless blood pool is... Fart! It’s not an omnipotent and omniscient god. Let alone swear in his name, even if you insult him, he can’t even fart!”

"Really?" Chu Xiu touched his chin.

Judging from Rasputin's performance, the boundless blood pool must not have reached the level that can be sensed by just chanting his name. However, one cannot believe everything Rasputin said in order to protect himself.

After all, Chu Xiu had not forgotten that when he got the tongue, the description on the item stated that Rasputin was dismembered because he was too talkative and was always talking behind other people's backs.

"But even so, there is currently no strong enough evidence to force me to change my plans."

Chu Xiu would not be easily fooled, but secretly decided to be more prudent.

He waved the Hundred Soul Flag, and a ghost general rushed out with hundreds of powerful ghosts, and in the form of a soul body, he explored the inside of the cave.

Chu Xiu himself sat on the back of the Feitian Corpse and moved back several hundred meters, keeping as far away from the cave as possible. At the same time, he protected the Sun Guard shield in front of him, maintaining a posture in which he could evacuate at any time. .

He just attached his mind to the ghost general to explore the situation in the cave.

In this way, even if something unexpected happens, the Flying Corpse can take him to evacuate quickly. The moving speed of this Refined Corpse even exceeds that of many King-level awakeners, which is enough to deal with most emergencies.

If Calamity still has the ability to kill him under this situation, then the other party will not have to talk nonsense at all. All the awakened people in the pit will have been killed by it.

Seeing that he didn't flinch, Calamity snorted and said no more. He just left a sentence of "You will regret it", and the incarnation of the shadow disappeared.

Chu Xiu ignored it and began to order the ghost team to move forward and concentrate on exploring the situation inside the cave.

To his surprise, these golden corrupt residents did not attack him, as if they were completely unaware of their existence.

This unusual scene gave him a vague feeling of bad luck.

And the further he went, the more obvious this bad feeling became.

Light golden threads like mycelium began to appear on the ground and the surrounding rock walls, and they became denser and denser as the team went deeper. At the same time, the rugged rock walls gradually became neater, which gave Chu Xiu a strange feeling, that is, the cave in front of him was actually becoming like a palace made of gold.

But the strange thing was that Chu Xiu did not feel the slightest sense of "grandness" or "solemnity". Instead, the further he went, the colder he felt. This was not a psychological illusion, but a real feeling.

"Ghosts are made of yin energy, even ghosts feel cold"

Chu Xiu's expression couldn't help but become a little more serious and more alert.

But he continued to explore forward, but at this moment, three loud bell sounds suddenly came from the depths of the cave.

"Dong-dong-dong-"

This bell sound is no different from the bell sound in the temple, but after Chu Xiu heard the bell sound that should have made people sober, he heard countless noisy whispers in his ears. These whispers were from old people, children, women, men, and even strange howling sounds that were neither beasts nor humans, which made him upset.

This made Chu Xiu's heart tremble, and he quickly activated his spiritual consciousness to guard the spiritual platform tightly, and those strange whispers gradually disappeared.

"This is [pollution]. I didn't expect that the [pollution] of the disaster was so strong that it could affect me based on the subtle connection between my consciousness and the ghost."

"As expected of a superior existence, it really has some means."

Fortunately, the ghost itself is a very yin thing, and it has a strong resistance to this kind of [pollution]. The ghost general can gather the power of the evil ghosts together to further offset the impact of [pollution].

So the ghost team is enough to continue moving forward.

After walking a few miles further, the number of corrupt residents increased further, and some corrupt residents with strange behaviors began to appear.

These corrupt residents prostrated themselves on the ground, kneeling down towards the depths of the cave, as if they were praying sincerely. Through their faces covered with pale golden rocks, one could see their extremely pious demeanor. Even when ghosts passed by them, they did not move at all.

The golden light of the rocks on these prostrating corrupt residents was also a little deeper than that of other corrupt residents, and the further they walked, the greater the proportion of rocks covered with gold.

"Tsk, it's getting more and more weird."

This scene made Chu Xiu silently retreat hundreds of meters.

But at this moment, Chu Xiu suddenly paused, and a look of shock appeared on his face involuntarily. At the same time, the ghost general to whom his consciousness was attached also stopped.

After turning a corner, a huge Buddha statue appeared at the end of the cave.

The Buddha statue sat cross-legged, but it was still a hundred meters tall, emitting a faint golden light, with a compassionate smile on its face.

At this time, countless golden threads flowed out from under the Buddha statue and spread out of the cave, looking extremely magical, like a god who brought light to the world.

But the strange thing is that half of the Buddha statue's body is embedded in the mountain, and there are more than a dozen iron chains nearby, piercing its body, fixing it firmly in place like a prisoner.

Chu Xiu also found that although its skin is golden, it does not seem to be as smooth as ordinary Buddha statues, but uneven, and even faintly visible cracks.

Just as Chu Xiu carefully looked at the Buddha statue in front of him, he suddenly caught something in his peripheral vision. The Buddha statue's mouth seemed to move slightly!

Although it was very slight, Chu Xiu still keenly caught this point, and his heart tightened! All ghosts immediately entered the combat state!

However, he waited for more than ten seconds, but nothing happened, as if it was just his illusion just now.

But this made him even more afraid to act rashly.

Chu Xiu asked Rasputin, but this guy had never heard of such a weird thing. The blood demon and the Buddha statue could not be connected together anyway.

But what is certain is that the scene in front of him absolutely does not match Chu Xiu's previous speculation, such as some kind of change.

"Is the disaster true?"

"Why not wait for Qin Xiang and other kings to come?" Chu Xiu muttered in his heart.

Although this will reduce his income sharply, it is indeed much safer. He is not a rigid person. The scene in front of him is beyond his cognition. With the addition of new information, he naturally has to adjust the plan flexibly.

However, when he was thinking secretly, the Buddha statue suddenly moved again!

His golden eyes, which were originally looking straight ahead, suddenly looked down strangely, looking at Chu Xiu's position!

Although it only deviated by a few degrees, Chu Xiu was sure that he was not wrong this time, because he had been highly focused since just now, always paying attention to the Buddha statue's every move!

This made Chu Xiu's hair stand up all over his body in an instant!

Even though the pupil was not actually aimed at Chu Xiu, but just deviated a few degrees downward, Chu Xiu still felt that he was being watched by someone!

"Something is wrong, it's definitely wrong!"

Chu Xiu's heart was alarmed, and without any hesitation, he made a decisive judgment and immediately controlled the ghost to retreat.

However, at this moment, the golden pupils of the Buddha statue suddenly split open, revealing a frightening blood-red color. At the same time, there was blood light coming out of its body, and a huge wind pressure surged out from the Buddha statue's body, squeezing it around. And go!

Countless gravel was rolled up, and the ghost's soul was blown by the huge wind pressure and kept flipping in the air, like catkins in a violent storm. It had to materialize to barely stop itself, and the surrounding rock walls made a huge "rumbling" sound. There was a loud sound, countless gravel fell, and the dust on the surface of the Buddha statue rose, as if some majestic life that had been sleeping for tens of millions of years was resurrecting in its body!

As time went by, the strong wind that was like a knife and ax not only did not decrease, but became more and more powerful. The Buddha statue was originally half embedded in the rock wall, but under the pressure of the wind, the surrounding rock walls continued to shatter, and at the same time the Buddha statue The expression on his face is becoming more and more lively!

Suddenly, the Buddha statue's legs crossed. Amidst the fierce friction, a large amount of dust rose up, and any of the legs, which were nearly fifty meters high, changed from sitting cross-legged to a forward-stretched posture.

At the same time, the Buddha statue holds his hands on the ground and is about to get up!

In the loud "rumbling" sound, the entire cave began to collapse, and a powerful pressure that Chu Xiu had never felt on anyone came down. Under this pressure, Chu Xiu's ghosts could not even resist. Within a moment, he knelt on the ground with a bang! My whole body is trembling!

This is pressure from a completely different level. The fear of this pressure has even exceeded the power controlled by the Hundred Soul Banner. No matter how Chu Xiu gave orders, Li Gui did not react at all! Only the ghost general can resist!

In fact, let alone this fierce ghost, even Chu Xiu felt a fear coming from the depths of his soul. This came from the huge gap in rank. If Chu Xiu was in front of that Buddha statue, he would probably not be able to move! This made him look horrified!

"This is the [Heroic Spirit]! This terrifying energy level is not at the same level as the king level!"

"No wonder [Heroic Spirit] is a huge threshold, no wonder there are no S-level professions, or even the qualifications to advance! No wonder countless talented king-level people, even after decades of accumulation, have passed the trial The probability is less than 10%!”

This is not just an improvement in strength, but an evolution in the essence of life!

"Could this be the trump card that Calamity said?!"

The strength of this strange Buddha statue has far exceeded Chu Xiu's previous estimate. Previously, everyone speculated that although Disaster has the energy level of a [heroic spirit], it is a new life born with the help of the blood demon core, which has a strong impact on the core. The control strength is very poor, at most it shows the strength of the top king level.

But the pressure of this Buddha statue has far exceeded that of a king. I'm afraid something unexpected might happen!

Even if Chu Xiu is still extremely strong, he is not sure he can persist in the face of this force!

Without any hesitation, Chu Xiu turned around and ran away!

At this moment, the Buddha statue suddenly pointed forward, and a golden light shot towards him. The golden light was incredibly fast, and the solid rocks mixed with ores that passed by were swept away like tofu without any hindrance. penetrate!

Chu Xiu was shocked and quickly urged the Feitian Corpse to speed up. At the same time, the Sin-Judging Devil Sword condensed in his hand, and the power in his body surged out, slashing towards the incoming golden light!

The blade that condensed the destructive energy collided with the golden light, making a loud noise like breaking through gold and cracking stone, and then triggered a violent explosion in the field!

The huge shock wave spread in all directions, rolling up rubble all over the ground. However, looking at this astonishing power, Chu Xiu stopped with a sigh.

He didn't expect that the Sin-Judging Demon Sword could block this blow.

Although the power of the golden light must have weakened after passing through several kilometers, it is the power of the [Heroic Spirit] after all.

Originally, Chu Xiu was already prepared for the Demonic Sin Sword to be blown to pieces and relied on his strong physique to resist.

But unexpectedly, he actually took it.

He looked intently and was surprised to find that the pressure on the Buddha statue was rapidly weakening, as if it was being suppressed by some kind of force.

However, he saw that the thick iron chain that bound the Buddha statue, which had been rusted, now glowed with green aura, and countless ancient and mysterious inscriptions appeared on its surface.

Under the suppression of these inscriptions, the Buddha roared unwillingly and sat back with a "boom" again.

This scene made Chu Xiu slightly stunned, and then he let out a sigh of relief.

"Ha, I knew that disaster was tricking me."

Thinking about it, if this Buddha statue really had no restrictions, it would have probably rushed out of the pit and killed all the others.

The chains gradually tightened, and the chains seemed to penetrate the bones of the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was like a manipulated puppet, gradually regaining its original posture.

However, before the power completely dissipated, it still struggled and shot another golden light towards Chu Xiu.

However, the power of this one was much worse than before, and the speed was also slower. Chu Xiu's spiritual consciousness was even able to capture the body of this golden light, which was a small Vajra that was purely condensed with energy.

Just as he was about to fight it off with his sword, a figure suddenly rushed out from behind him and shattered the golden light in front of him with a punch.

A familiar face came into view.

Qin Xiang's face was filled with anger: "Chen Ce! Why didn't you obey the command? Do you know what would have happened to you if I had been a step late?!"
