Chapter 1003: Chapter 440: Revealing All Trump Cards

“Boom!!!”

The destruction Sword Qi condensed to the extreme, obliterated the entire space in an instant! Even the independent space created by the Immortal Equipment [Silent Judge] couldn’t withstand Chu Xiu’s Sword Qi at all!

The boundary of space was like an iron box swelling to the limit under pressure and then exploding, countless fragments of space shooting out in all directions! Yet right in the center of the Sword Qi, Lilith’s figure had already vanished.

Chu Xiu suddenly looked toward a certain point in the void. There, large amounts of black fog surged, and when the fog dispersed, a towering monster slowly revealed its form.

It was completely naked, its humanoid body immensely robust. You could see clearly its full chest and abdominal muscles like an ancient Greek sculpture, with only the joints covered by Armor-like hardened plates. Two ram horns grew from its head, and a pair of huge wings spread from its back, looking exactly like a Demon God from Myth.

Only now, a massive wound ran from its right shoulder all the way through to its left abdomen, nearly splitting it in half; within, one could glimpse bones like black crystal.

“So you’re a damn man?”

Chu Xiu spat, and with the motion he coughed out a large mouthful of blood. At the same time, the five Heroic Spirit Tier Ghost Soul Bodies above the Titan Giant Mechanism all shuddered together, then drooped as if severely wounded.

His internal organs had been completely crushed; right now he was relying purely on a Life Force so strong it was beyond belief to keep going. Fortunately he had refined the Nine Infant Witch Puppet, able to supply massive amounts of Golden Embryo Origin from an external source to repair his injuries. Otherwise, with all his Power reclaimed into the Star Core, even Chu Xiu could never rely on the natural healing of his body to recover from such a grave wound.

High physical recovery rate and high physical durability are opposing attributes. After all, higher body durability usually means more Energy contained, and naturally it becomes much harder to repair.

Chu Xiu’s Constitution is mainly stacked on bodily toughness, so it’s impossible for him to have the same recovery speed as a Blood Demon. This is also why Golden Embryo Origin that can restore the body is the core of the Innate Divine Demon lineage’s inheritance.

Having suffered the grievous injury of all his internal organs being twisted to pulp, even with Golden Embryo Origin wanting to restore them, it still needs time.

And even to end up in this miserable state, he had used the Nether Chain to simultaneously let five Heroic Spirit Tier Ghosts, as well as over a hundred King Tier Ghosts share his injuries. Otherwise, his entire flesh body would likely have been completely destroyed by now.

Yet even after paying such a huge price, he still couldn’t break free from the shackles!

Under Chu Xiu’s Divine Thought perception, that dagger stabbed into his Star Core was still there!

“Even the binding space was shattered, and I still can’t get rid of this thing?”

Worse, just as Chu Xiu had only begun to recover, a voice rang out from the void.

“I smell the blood of an undying one.”

As the words fell, that humanoid Demon’s body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye! Its recovery speed was at least ten times faster than Chu Xiu’s!

Seeing this, Chu Xiu’s expression grew a shade uglier.

Yet for some reason, the expression on the humanoid Demon’s face was even more grim than his!

“We’re already outside the range of your Civilization Domain. How can you still have such strong Power?”

Its eyes were filled with disbelief. Although it had indeed split its focus because it was controlling the [Silent Judge], and never expected Chu Xiu to go for a mutually assured destruction sneak attack, thus suffering such heavy damage.

But the Power of that last sword, without a doubt, was output at Peak Demi-God Level! Even if he had been prepared and taken it head-on, trying to deflect it would not have been easy!

But how was that possible?

From the Battle of Peng City to now, only a single year had passed. How could his strength have increased this much?

Even at an Awakened’s upgrade speed, this was too fast! Beyond imagination fast!

More exaggerated was…

“He actually tanked the[Silent Judge]’s spontaneous attack!”

This made Lilith feel even more baffled.

Although it hadn’t unleashed a lethal blow in order to gather information, this was an Immortal Equipment! Its spontaneous damage alone was enough to kill an ordinary Peak Demigod!

Yet Chu Xiu had actually taken this attack head-on. Didn’t that mean his Constitution had already surpassed ordinary Peak Demigods?

But how was that possible? Even if he was using Cause and Effect Points for Cultivation non-stop, there wouldn’t be such a ridiculous Power growth speed!

“Looks like my lord was right. You really do have a lot of secrets on you…”

With a dark expression, Lilith hooked her middle finger. The chain winding around the Star Core suddenly tightened, and the red dagger at its end thrust fiercely toward Chu Xiu’s Star Core!

With a soft sound, the dagger scraped across the surface of Chu Xiu’s Star Core. Chu Xiu let out a muffled groan as a sheen of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

“I’ll give you one last chance.”

“Answer my questions, or die!”

“This time I absolutely won’t hold back!”

Chu Xiu likewise stared at the other with a grave expression. He could feel the [Silent Judge] clinging to his body again like maggots in rotting bones. This time, without the Ghostly Legion helping share the damage, his flesh body would be instantly pulverized even without Lilith lifting a hand!

The might of this Immortal Equipment had already exceeded the range he could cope with. Chu Xiu could even sense within it the King of Bronze’s Divine Power—so overwhelming it couldn’t be shaken!

“Looks like I really am going to die here,” Chu Xiu sighed inwardly.

His civilization and all his early investments would naturally be completely wasted.

But as long as he kept his Life, once he slowly cultivated a Star Pill, he’d have all the time he needed for revenge!

Yet just as he was about to go for mutual destruction, a light laugh suddenly echoed around them.

“Lilith, this isn’t the plan we agreed on beforehand.”
