Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era-Chapter 305 - 176: Meat Grinder Battlefield (Part 3)

At the bottom of the cave, there lay a half-meter-thick layer of rock melted into semi-solid magma! Above it was a mass of dust, bone ashes, and carbonized blood and flesh, and on top of that lay layers of charred corpses, piled up to three meters high!

In just that brief quarter-hour, Chu Xiu burned a total of 230,000 corrupted creatures to death!

One must know that the infamous Battle of Verdun, known as the ’meat grinder,’ took ten months to claim 250,000 lives!

Chu Xiu felt that his merits had surged to the point of almost overflowing.

The Hundred Souls Banner was filled with Life Souls, its thick demonic qi uncontrollably seeping out.

Of course, the opponent’s strategy was effective. After burning so many creatures alive, even though Chu Xiu had been continuously using recovery artifacts, his internal energy was down to just one-third.

He stopped supplying mana, and the Array Flag of the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array instantly dimmed. The phantom of the Fire Dragon no longer spewed flames, retreating into the Array Flag.

This sight made the Colonel, who had been waiting, finally light up with excitement, letting out a sharp scream as if seeing the dawn of victory.

Under his command, a large number of corrupted creatures continued to charge in from the five entrances, stepping over the carbonized corpses of their companions, advancing relentlessly toward Chu Xiu and the ghostly legion overhead!

However, the next moment, something happened that plunged them into despair.

With a thought, Chu Xiu summoned a gigantic plant that soared into the sky, growing over ten meters tall in the blink of an eye!

Simultaneously, surging life energy emanated from it, pouring into the center of the ghostly legion!

In an instant, the wounds of these ghosts healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and as if on stimulants, they charged madly at the corrupted creatures from the five entrances!

Compared to before, the rate at which corrupted creatures poured in increased exponentially, with thousands charging in every second.

Yet even under such circumstances, the corrupted creatures were suppressed by the ghostly legion!

Under the blessing of the Heaven-Reaching Blood Vine, no matter how severe the wounds on the ghosts were, they could rapidly recover!

This was Chu Xiu’s second hidden card!

The Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array was not just an attack-type artifact; it could also extract the life energy from flesh, which Chu Xiu used entirely to cultivate the Heaven-Reaching Blood Vine!

The flesh of over 200,000 created an extremely terrifying power in this Myth artifact, forming a group healing buff that covered thousands of ghosts!

And that was far from the end!

Without any hesitation, mana within Chu Xiu surged into the Hundred Souls Banner, activating a skill.

Command: Charge!

Simultaneously, he took out Oswell’s Roar and placed it near his mouth!

With an earth-shattering roar, the horn for the counterattack was sounded!

With multiple buffs granted, the battle power of the ghostly legion immediately surged by several tiers, completely suppressing the frenzied onslaught of corrupted creatures, turning the cave into a complete meat grinder!

No matter how many corrupted creatures poured in, whether they were ordinary corrupted civilians or elite corrupted soldiers, they couldn’t last ten seconds before being torn apart!

This sight made the Colonel’s face extremely grim!

At this moment, he finally realized that Chu Xiu had been concealing his strength all along! His true combat power was far more terrifying than what he had previously shown!

Thinking of exhausting Chu Xiu with low-tier creatures was utterly delusional!

But by now, having lost nearly 300,000 corrupted creatures, including elites, and three Shield Machines, it was impossible to stop here!

The Colonel roared in anger, finally ceasing to wait, charging towards Chu Xiu. Simultaneously, from three nearby passages, ten concealed corrupted Awakened burst forth!

In realizing the failure of their war of attrition, they directly initiated a decapitation tactic! Intending to exploit the common rule that a Summoner’s physical body is not strong, they aimed to forcibly kill Chu Xiu!

"A King Tier and ten corrupted Awakened, you really think highly of me."

"However, did you really believe that I was merely a weak-bodied Summoner just because I showed slight weakness before?"

Chu Xiu smiled faintly, mobilizing the Golden Embryo Origin within him, the True Demon Saber took form in his hand.

The next moment, the emerald magic saber lifted, suddenly striking down towards the approaching Colonel and corrupted Awakened!
