Chapter 517: Chapter 253: Strongest Divine Technique of the Innate Divine Demon Lineage (Early Stage)

Chu Xiu was speechless: "Don’t make it sound so ambiguous, lead the way."

"Senior, you’re really cold." Jiang Miaoyin raised her hand and released an Instantaneous guide. Then, as Chu Xiu caught up, she shadowed him closely, almost pressing against his back with her ample bosom.

This made Chu Xiu raise an eyebrow.

Before he could say anything, Jiang Miaoyin quickly laughed and said, "Senior, I watched your fight just now. The shield is so small, I don’t feel safe without sticking close."

Chu Xiu paused for a moment, too lazy to argue with her, and just increased his speed.

Soon, he followed the Instantaneous guide to a small house, which was indeed hidden away, located in a corner of the Soul Hall and separated by a special mechanism. Without the Entity-Ignoring ability of the Instantaneous, it would have been difficult to find.

Chu Xiu looked around; the furniture in the chamber was covered in thick dust, and the air was murky and full of impurities, making it impossible for ordinary people to breathe here.

He raised his hand, and all the dust swept into a corner and compressed into a sphere.

Jiang Miaoyin wasn’t idle either; she formed a seal, and the channel formed by the outer Instantaneous immediately vanished. Countless debris fell, blocking the chamber again. She then commanded the Instantaneous to carefully clean and disguise the traces left by their passage, ensuring others couldn’t easily track them.

After finishing all this, she released four strangely shaped Curse Spirits to guard around them.

The four Curse Spirits were over five meters tall, resembling four golden Buddha statues, but with strange expressions. Three were crying, one covering its eyes, another its ears, and one pinching its nose, while the last had its hands naturally hanging down with an exaggerated smile on its face.

Chu Xiu glanced at them and didn’t pay further attention, knowing it was some powerful vigilance measure.

He simply sat cross-legged in the center of the room, while an Iron Armor Corpse enveloped him completely. The Blood Demon Incarnation crouched on the Iron Armor Corpse like a gargoyle guarding a temple.

Even though the Blood Demon Incarnation was less than a tenth of its full power, it was still capable of a brief burst of power to signal.

Then, Chu Xiu unhesitatingly took out a large amount of Cause and Effect Points.

The method to deal with the Murder Ghost was simple; he just needed to complete the new inheritance.

Begin allocating points!

As Chu Xiu’s thoughts moved, a massive influx of Cause and Effect Points surged into him. Almost simultaneously, a wealth of memories flooded into his mind. It was as if he were dreaming, existing in an empty void, tirelessly cultivating the [Golden Embryo Divine Forger].

Curiously, both Chu Xiu’s real-world body and Divine Soul were undergoing an astonishing transformation!

A mysterious energy from the void, beyond time and cause and effect, continuously poured into him. Propelled by this energy, his Divine Soul expanded at an unbelievable speed!

[Consumed 12,215 Cause and Effect Points, Golden Embryo Divine Forger First Layer Achieved!]

[Consumed 26,665 Cause and Effect Points, Golden Embryo Divine Forger Second Layer Achieved!]

[Consumed 55,872 Cause and Effect Points...]

...

[Consumed 296,676 Cause and Effect Points, Golden Embryo Divine Forger Achieved the Sixth Layer Perfection!]

Having broken through some sort of critical point in what seemed like an instant, an unprecedentedly powerful aura erupted from Chu Xiu’s Divine Soul. He opened his eyes suddenly, and a god-like pressure emanated from them. He seemed unchanged yet somehow entirely different.

His eyes were still a deep black, yet an unexplainable aura exuded from them.

However, when Chu Xiu closed his eyes and opened them again, the aura disappeared.

He simply felt his body quietly, murmuring, "What overwhelming power."

After spending a total of 650,000 Cause and Effect Points, Chu Xiu had cultivated Golden Embryo Divine Forger to perfection!

He could clearly sense how much his Divine Soul had expanded compared to before, and it became more solid and resilient, even possessing some unique mystical properties!

If his earlier Divine Soul was akin to a Qing Dynasty-era ocean freighter, now it was like a modern missile destroyer!

It was not just an increase in size, but a qualitative transformation from wood to steel, an evolution from cannons to missiles!

[Golden Embryo Divine Forger Sixth Layer (Perfection): Mental Attribute +4850, Mental Defense Ability +3850, all mental skills’ power +250%, trait "Divine Sense" upgraded to SS Tier, gained additional Divine Technique "Void God Mode."]

[Void God Mode: Consumes a large amount of Golden Embryo Origin and Essence Blood to enhance the spirit, simulating a "Primordial Spirit" of a high-tier cultivator for combat. In this state, relinquishes all control over the physical body, Divine Sense intensity +200%, all mental skills’ power gain an additional +200% after accounting for all bonuses, potentially further enhanced by the total absorbed Essence Blood.]

[Note 1: This technique is extremely risky; all damage will be directly borne by the Divine Soul after use, and any injuries will be difficult to heal. Using mental skills without the restraint of the flesh risks loss of control, especially with more powerful skills, the risk increases. The physical body will also be severely damaged as Essence Blood is drained. Use with caution.]

[Note 2: In Void God Mode, Divine Techniques and Arts can be directly cast through consuming the Divine Soul, greatly increasing power, but causing permanent damage to the Soul Body.]

[Note 3: Congratulations, you have completed all the foundational inheritance of Golden Embryo Nether Technique. Before becoming a Heroic Spirit, you must choose whether to continue strengthening the spirit to become a god revered and worshipped in ancient times by absorbing offerings, or to continue refining the body to become an undying demon capable of being reborn from a drop of blood.]

[Of course, you could attempt to cultivate both paths, yet the conflict between Demon and God Cultivation Systems requires great opportunities and determination to reconcile. Both paths are supreme inheritances, strongly advising practitioners not to be greedy and to choose one for cultivation.]

Void God Mode!

The description made a faint smile appear on Chu Xiu’s face.

Without a doubt, the powerful attributes of Golden Embryo Divine Forger directly compensated for Chu Xiu’s shortcoming, turning it into a strength!

An instantaneous mental surge of nearly five thousand points elevated his mental attributes from an outstanding General Tier level to the pinnacle of King Tier!

This alone was enough to triple the strength of his Divine Sense!

Moreover, it directly elevated the Divine Sense trait by one tier!

Now, Chu Xiu could sense that his Divine Sense fully expanded, could cover at least a ten-kilometer area! If he encountered the Murder Ghost again, he was confident of detecting them from a kilometer away!

The qualitative change in Divine Sense provided an astonishing leap in detection ability, far beyond what mere quantity could achieve!

Equally crucial was the 250% enhancement to mental skills’ power and the terrifying Void God Mode!

In this mode, the Burning Blood Golden Eyes might annihilate a King Tier with a mere glance! Indeed, it made slaying King Tiers as easy as killing pigs and dogs.

Chu Xiu even suspected that some Heroic Spirits with weak mental defenses couldn’t withstand the full attack of the Burning Blood Golden Eyes!

This was undoubtedly the strongest killing move of the Innate Divine Demon lineage in the early stages!

Of course, this Divine Technique came with significant risks, so Chu Xiu regarded it as his ultimate card, akin to a second life.

If ever forced into the dire situation of his physical body being shattered, he would use it.

"However, I hope I’ll never have to use this Divine Technique."

Chu Xiu retracted his gaze, and with a slight thought, the surrounding Iron Armor Corpses opened up like blooming metal flowers.

Not far away, Jiang Miaoyin also opened her eyes. She parted her lips, habitually ready to say something playful, but paused in surprise.

There seemed to be something different about Chu Xiu.

Exactly where, she couldn’t put into words, only feeling that compared to before, he seemed even harder to approach.

Before, Jiang Miaoyin thought the barrier between them was Chu Xiu’s complete lack of interest in her, but now, she had a strange feeling as if he had become a completely different and more advanced life form.

Yet, this feeling was vague, and she couldn’t quite articulate it.

"How many days have passed?"

It wasn’t until Chu Xiu spoke that Jiang Miaoyin snapped out of it with a start: "Senior, five days have passed. Are you... prepared with the artifact to deal with the Murder Ghost?"

"Hmm." Chu Xiu responded and asked, "Are your Curse Spirits ready?"

"Almost," Jiang Miaoyin, inexplicably, was a bit reluctant to meet Chu Xiu’s eyes. "But rest assured, Senior, within three days, I can refine the Soul Power for you."

Chu Xiu nodded and returned to the Iron Armor Corpses.

His strength had not yet reached its maximum.

Now that Cause and Effect Points were abundant, both inheritances of the Supreme Demon Lord should be upgraded in passing.

"I wonder whether, after fully cultivating, I can match Heroic Spirits."

An expectant glint flashed through Chu Xiu’s eyes.

Without further hesitation, he sat cross-legged.

Continue allocating points!
