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

Chapter 93 Blood Demon Servant

Ten minutes later, Chu Xiu arrived at the target residential building.

With a wave of his hand, several ghosts rushed into the building, scattering to search for any living creatures.

Not long after, a roar was heard, and a blood-red monster, three meters tall, fell from the rooftop and pounced on Chu Xiu!

This is a powerful monster of the Warrior Rank 3! Even Warrior Rank professionals would have to be cautious when dealing with it!

However, before it could even get close to Chu Xiu, the Berserk Demon Hand unleashed a punch!
"boom!"

In an instant, the blood-red monster's bones were shattered, and with another punch, it was hammered into the ground like a lump of mud!

Its internal organs were ruptured, and blood gushed from every wound. It breathed weakly, and its eyes showed a human-like expression of fear.

Chu Xiu exclaimed in amazement: "As expected of a warrior-level corpse demon, it actually survived two hits from my Berserk Heavenly Demon Hand!"

"But you're so rude, you didn't even say hello."

As soon as he finished speaking, another punch landed, and the blood-red monster's head exploded, leaving it completely lifeless.

Good haul. Kill a few more and I'll level up. Most importantly, these monsters are quite generous with their karma points.

Chu Xiu carefully collected the loot and rushed to the next location without stopping, afraid that someone else would steal it.

Fortunately, he was overthinking it. He marked a total of eight locations. Although the warrior-level monsters in some of these locations were gone, there were no signs of new combat, suggesting that they had died during the Blood Moon Ritual.

Even the remaining low-ranking monsters were easily defeated by him with just a few punches, posing no challenge whatsoever.

During this time, he was also ambushed by a warrior-level monster, which made Chu Xiu sigh that his previous decision to develop cautiously in the apartment building was the right one.

If Chu Xiu had encountered a warrior-level monster back then, especially if he had been ambushed, he would most likely have been defeated.

Then he punched the attacker to death with a backhand.

Meanwhile, Chu Xiu's ghost army swept through wherever it went, expanding rapidly with terrifying power.

Less than three hours after entering the abyss, Chu Xiu had gained nearly ten more Yin Ghosts and upgraded the Fiend Soul Banner by one level, now capable of holding a full 65 Yin Ghosts!
"The formation of a massive army of ghosts is just around the corner."

As Chu Xiu pondered this, he happily walked towards the last marked location.

This was an abandoned construction building that had not yet been completed. During Chu Xiu's previous investigation, it was marked as the most dangerous.

He didn't actually see the monster inside at all; he only saw a blood-red tentacle suddenly sweep out from the building and engulf a warrior-class monster bird!

The strange bird, with its wingspan reaching over ten meters, was grabbed by the tentacles and wedged into a window that was only one meter long and wide. Then, the tentacles, with their incredible strength, forcibly tore off all the bones in its body and dragged it through that small opening!
"This is definitely an elite warrior-level creature, and its level is quite high!"

"I hope it will bring me some surprises."

He felt it was too unexciting to take down his enemies with just a few punches each time.

However, despite thinking this, Chu Xiu did not let his guard down at all. Instead, he first sent out two Yin Ghosts to scout ahead, and then carefully followed behind, slowly exploring upwards.

As Chu Xiu climbed the abandoned cement stairs, after only two floors, a stench suddenly filled his nostrils.

He frowned slightly, looked up, and saw a huge, heavily armored ghoul corpse. Its flesh and internal organs had been almost completely eaten, leaving only rotting fur hanging on its bones.

As he continued upwards, he encountered even more corpses of ghouls, including many species that Chu Xiu had never seen before. Some were piled up in the corners, while others had been flung to the wall by the monstrous strength, turning into a clump of mud.

The people living in this abandoned, unfinished building are like those who litter after eating takeout.

"Are all ghouls without a sense of smell, or do they just have a particular craving for this?"

Chu Xiu couldn't help but wrinkle his nose.

However, just as he was silently complaining, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from beside his ear! It was the sound of wind pressure generated by air being compressed to its limit!

Before Chu Xiu could react, a long, thin, blood-red tentacle shot out along the wall and wrapped around Chu Xiu's body!
The next moment, the tentacle contracted rapidly, and under the immense force, Chu Xiu felt like a hooked fish, his entire body rising rapidly upwards!
"Humph!"

A cold glint flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes. He grabbed the tentacle with his backhand, and two demonic hands appeared behind him at the same time, their ends connecting directly to Chu Xiu's back. It was as if two arms had grown out of his back, prying open the walls on both sides and firmly fixing Chu Xiu's body in place!
The next moment, he waved the Yin Wind Banner, and the Yin Wind Blade with a power of up to 30 directly severed the tentacle!
Just as the blood-red tentacle snapped off, a chilling shriek came from upstairs. The tentacle then rapidly contracted, followed by hurried footsteps. In less than a breath, a dark figure suddenly rushed out, reaching for Chu Xiu with a claw!

"clang!!!"

Two demonic hands stretched out, protecting Chu Xiu in the center. The sharp claws scratched against the demonic hands, producing a metallic scraping sound that made one's teeth ache.

Through the gaps between the crossed Heavenly Demon Hands, Chu Xiu could also see the attacker's full appearance.

This creature was almost indistinguishable from an ordinary human in appearance, but it had no facial features, only a gaping maw stretched to its ears, filled with layers of serrated fangs. Its skin was deathly pale, like a vampire's, with blood-red beads of sweat constantly seeping from it. Five slender red tentacles grew from behind its tailbone, one of which had been severed, and bright red blood was continuously flowing from the cut. [Blood Demon Servant (Elite)]

The panel that appeared before him made Chu Xiu look at the strange creature with some surprise.

"I never expected that this godforsaken place would have creatures other than ghouls?"

You should know that even the strange birds are mutated ghouls.

However, when you think about how the "god" who rules this area is a guy called "Boundless Blood Pool," it doesn't seem so strange anymore.

Without giving it any further thought, Chu Xiu focused his attention on the creature in front of him.

Although this Blood Demon servant was merely a slave of the Blood Demon, judging from his stats, his strength was not to be underestimated, which made Chu Xiu's face show a hint of solemnity.

Just as he was observing his opponent's intelligence, a sharp shriek suddenly rang out, and the Blood Demon servants launched another attack!

With its incredibly agile movements, it leaped onto a nearby wall, instantly bypassing the Heavenly Demon Hand's defense. With a powerful push of its legs, the concrete wall beneath its feet cracked open like a spiderweb, and the immense recoil propelled it like a cannonball towards Chu Xiu!
"So fast!"

Chu Xiu was startled, but reacted quickly, turning around to adjust his posture, while the Heavenly Demon Hand behind him rapidly went berserk!
With a loud whooshing sound, a punch with a power of 216 points was suddenly unleashed!
However, just as the berserk demon hand was about to strike the blood demon servant, its five tentacles on its back braced themselves against the ground, and its attacking figure nimbly changed position, narrowly avoiding the berserk demon hand!
"Tsk."

The scene before him made Chu Xiu click his tongue in exasperation.

This Blood Demon servant is precisely the enemy Chu Xiu least wants to face!

When the Heavenly Demon Hand was upgraded, he discovered that while the Heavenly Demon Hand became stronger, it also became more extreme. Although the berserk Heavenly Demon Hand had a terrifying power of 216 points, due to the increase in size and mass, the punching speed actually slowed down a bit while the kinetic energy remained unchanged. This made it easier for enemies to dodge, making it very weak when facing agile opponents.

However, Chu Xiu quickly adjusted his mindset.

"The Berserk Demon Hand is exhilarating, but I can't become dependent on it."

"The three forms of the Heavenly Demon Hand are designed to deal with different enemies!"

Thinking of this, he simply deactivated his berserk state. His two demonic hands no longer attacked proactively, but instead stood like two shields in front of Chu Xiu.

At the same time, he flicked his finger, and a slender, blood-red nail shot out!

It is indeed the [Blood Curse Bone-Piercing Nail]!
The Blood Curse Bone-Piercing Nail was extremely fast, breaking the sound barrier almost instantly, pushing through the air, and forming a straight path in the air!

The blood demon servant had barely landed and hadn't even had time to adjust his stance when he was struck directly, a thumb-sized hole punched into his chest! Instantly, a large amount of blood gushed out!

"Wow!"

The Blood Demon servant let out a shriek of alarm and anger, and hurriedly dodged, but at that moment the second [Blood Curse Bone-Piercing Nail] arrived, piercing through its thigh!
"boom!"

The Blood Demon Servant fell to the ground. Just as Chu Xiu was about to fire the third Blood Curse Bone-Piercing Nail, its tentacles swiftly slid, dragging its injured body behind a load-bearing wall.

Chu Xiu didn't rush to pursue, but secretly sighed that unlocking the [Blood Curse Bone-Piercing Nail] earlier was the right choice. Against enemies with strong defense, he would use the Berserk Heavenly Demon Hand, while against agile opponents like the one in front of him, the high speed of the Blood Curse Bone-Piercing Nail was the perfect solution.

Chu Xiu estimated that the speed of the bone-piercing nail should be at least 800 m/s, and its armor-piercing capability was comparable to that of the incendiary armor-piercing rounds fired by Barrett!

In reality, if the Blood Curse were detonated, this level 6 warrior would have been killed long ago. However, this was his trump card, and he wouldn't waste it on an enemy of this level.

With a flick of his wrist, a sharp bone spear appeared in Chu Xiu's hand. He then used the Mysterious Step technique to chase after the Blood Demon servants.

The ensuing battle was like an eagle chasing a chick, with Chu Xiu chasing after the Blood Demon servants and constantly launching attacks with his Bone-Piercing Nails.

During this time, the monster also attempted to use its blood manipulation talent to condense the blood from its wounds into blood arrows to attack Chu Xiu.

In fact, the power of this blood arrow is not weak. After all, it is the innate talent of a warrior-level elite, and it should be one of the skills that the Ghostly Eyes did not detect.

But this is where the power of the Elder of Pain's Robe really shines. As the blood arrow approached Chu Xiu, its kinetic energy was reduced by 40%, which meant that even if it hit Chu Xiu, it would not be able to penetrate the defenses of the bone armor.

Thus, the scene turned into a one-sided beatdown. Although the Blood Demon Servant survived for a long time thanks to its super regeneration ability, Chu Xiu finally seized the opportunity and shot a bone-piercing nail through its head.
