Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era
Chapter 528 - 257: Blessed Land 3
Chu Xiu felt slightly relieved as the weight in his heart was lifted. He patted the Soul Banner, and immediately, the surrounding Yin Qi was absorbed into it, nourishing the ghosts within.
"Let’s go."
The Garuda’s Wings unfolded behind Chu Xiu as he descended into the depths of the valley.
The howling cold wind swept up from the bottom of the valley, causing their clothes to flap loudly. The deeper they flew into the Abyss, the denser the Yin Qi became. Astonishingly, they had descended over ten kilometers, yet they still hadn’t reached the bottom!
By now, the concentration of Yin Qi was more than a hundred times that of the Outer World!
Jiang Miaoyin shivered and raised her hand to take out an old oil lamp. But as soon as the lamp appeared, a gentle Power seemed to surround them, blocking the incessant chill.
This scene made Chu Xiu secretly nod in approval, thinking that this lady had indeed come well-prepared. With her around, she could bring considerable convenience.
Without the oil lamp, though relying on the Soul Banner to absorb the Yin Qi, it wouldn’t be so cold that they couldn’t continue, but it would be somewhat uncomfortable.
As Chu Xiu mused, suddenly a point of fluorescence appeared beneath their feet.
Upon closer inspection, they found it was a piece of fluorescent stone embedded in the rock wall.
"Blue Yin Stone! This truly is a Blessed Land; we’ve found a rare material just by wandering around!" Jiang Miaoyin exclaimed with joy.
Chu Xiu reached out and grabbed it, and his Demonic Qi destroyed the surrounding rock wall, allowing him to extract the intact Blue Yin Stone, which was as large as a water tank.
"Wow, such a large Blue Yin Stone could easily sell for fifty billion. Who knows how many precious materials are in this deep valley? You’re bound to get rich, Senior." Jiang Miaoyin’s voice carried a hint of envy.
Chu Xiu remained calm: "The more Exotic Treasures a place has, the more dangerous it is. This might not be a Blessed Land, but rather your and my burial ground."
"Pfft," Jiang Miaoyin waved her hand in front of her mouth, "Senior, don’t jinx it."
After speaking, her eyes twinkled: "Oh, Senior, this place is so vast, should I release the Instantaneous to help you explore?"
Chu Xiu laughed: "Didn’t you say before that you’d provide reconnaissance services for me?"
Jiang Miaoyin giggled: "I never said it’s free."
She then hooked her arm around Chu Xiu’s: "Oh, Senior, I won’t compete with you for the things here, but without my Instantaneous, who knows how long it would take to explore this place, and you might miss some opportunities!"
"You’ll be eating all the meat; just leave the little lady a few drops of soup."
Chu Xiu was amused by this girl. He looked around; in such dense Yin Qi, his Divine Sense was indeed restricted.
"Can your Instantaneous really operate in this environment?" Chu Xiu asked.
"Originally it couldn’t, but I can spend Mana to enhance their adaptability."
"You wouldn’t know, Senior, but Instantaneous is a type of Curse Spirit with extremely strong adaptive Ability. They can change their Traits according to different environments, and my Curse Order can enhance this trait."
"Not only that, but I also have the Curse Order: Division, which can double their numbers, and Curse Order: Floating, which speeds up their movement, and Curse Order·Trace which allows them to..."
Jiang Miaoyin spoke energetically, like a salesperson promoting a product, astonishing Chu Xiu with wonder.
The foundation of the Four Great Families was indeed extraordinary. Jiang Miaoyin must have been cultivating for over a decade since her awakening. This continuous directed training did nurture a Curse Spirit with extremely strong exploratory abilities, no wonder the Heroic Spirits needed her help.
After thinking for a moment, Chu Xiu said: "In that case, then..."
He was about to agree with Jiang Miaoyin’s proposal, to give her some benefits and ask her to help search. However, before he could finish, a deep sound suddenly echoed through the valley.
"Dong—"
It was like a large bell being struck, the sound carrying for miles.
But how could there be a bell here? And who struck it?
The two exchanged glances with no verbal exchange, and tacitly flew toward the direction of the bell sound.
