Chu Xiu chose the battle location on the thirtieth floor.

This place is a certain distance from the stronghold above, which can maximize the effect of the bait, while this place also has some defensive fortifications that can relieve the pressure on Chu Xiu.

Moreover, he discovered a point extremely advantageous to himself.

"The Yin Ghosts in my Yin Soul Banner are not marked by the Blood Moon!"

"This means they can perfectly undertake the tasks of ambush and sneak attack!"

Those Corpse Demons wouldn't expect attacks to suddenly occur in places that appear empty to their Blood Moon Perception! This can bring Chu Xiu a great preemptive advantage!

Chu Xiu laid the Bone Bloodthirst Array at the stairway entrance, while setting up Yin Ghost ambushes in three directions.

"Everything is ready, next is slaughter time!"

While Chu Xiu was pondering, Corpse Demons were already rushing up!

This was a model 004 black-haired Corpse Demon, but compared to before, its speed increased significantly, its eyes flashing with a frenzied bloodlust, it leapt at Chu Xiu the moment it saw him!

"Hmph," Chu Xiu snorted coldly, twirling a flourish with his Bone Spear, and in the next moment, it shot out like a thunderbolt!

In the face of the comprehensively strengthened Bone Spear, the fur of the Corpse Demon meant for defense was as fragile as thin paper, Chu Xiu almost felt no resistance as the spear pierced through it entirely!

However, despite such a severe injury, the Corpse Demon seemingly remained oblivious, shockingly charging at Chu Xiu while howling and swinging its claws with the spear sticking through it!

"Interesting, so this is the tripled life recovery speed?"

The tripled life recovery speed signifies much more than just shortening the time to heal injuries by threefold.

If it were only that, it wouldn't affect combat at all, since even a cut on the arm would take a day or two to fully heal.

The truly crucial part is the rapid hemostatic ability and muscle contraction ability brought by the increase in life recovery speed!

This allows the same attack to cause much smaller damage! It also minimizes the impact on other parts when one part is severely injured!

"Plus the -70% pain shielding... everyone's practically a Berserker."

Chu Xiu sighed, then looked at the Corpse Demon that was almost within reach, and punched out!

With a loud bang, the Corpse Demon's head was crushed inward like a deflated ball by the fist clad in Heavy Armor! The neck snapped without a doubt!

"Crack."

The Corpse Demon's body fell to the ground limply; Chu Xiu waved his hand, shaking off the sticky and smelly brain matter from the Fist Armor, while kicking the Corpse Demon's body off the Bone Spear.

Even the Corpse Demons with enhanced power by 50% were as fragile as infants in front of the current Chu Xiu.

Recalling the dangers faced when he first arrived brought a sense of relief to Chu Xiu.

Of course, correspondingly, the experience gained also plummeted.

"Even after a 100% increase, it's still just this little?" Chu Xiu frowned.

"But it's okay, as long as there are enough numbers!"

Three Corpse Demons suddenly lunged from behind Chu Xiu, yet he didn't move a muscle; simultaneously, a pitch-black flash appeared in the darkness, instantly slicing the three Corpse Demons in half!

The figure of the Yin Ghost emerged mid-air, its sharp claws dripping with blood.

"Roar!!!"

More Corpse Demons appeared from all directions, but the three Yin Ghosts tightly sealed three pathways, and every passing Corpse Demon was killed in an instant without any forewarning!

They were like lions and tigers charging into a flock of sheep, creating chaos and making blood and flesh fly everywhere!

Meanwhile, the blood of the slain Corpse Demons all flowed into the Bone Bloodthirst Array, causing the blood-red aura enveloping the array to deepen, its effect growing stronger and its range quickly expanding to nearly twenty meters!

A Corpse Demon that had just reached the thirtieth floor was ensnared by countless bony arms, making its movements slow as an elderly man before Chu Xiu easily skewered its head with a spear!

In such a situation, no matter how many Corpse Demons there were, they were but nourishment for him during his growth.

Chu Xiu agilely maneuvered through the Corpse Demons, each spear thrust easily taking a life.

However, just as Chu Xiu was focused on his harvest, a sharp whistling sound suddenly rang in his ears; Chu Xiu quickly turned his head to see a slim black figure darting out from the staircase, aiming straight at him!

"Bang!"

The black shadow struck the Bone Armor, the huge impact forcing Chu Xiu to step back three times!

The black shadow quickly retracted; under the illumination of the Blood Moon, Chu Xiu saw clearly that it was a long tail capable of retracting, composed of multiple segments of exoskeleton!

Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly, channeling Spiritual Power into his eyes, revealing a blurred shadow in the darkness along with a panel.

"So it's an old friend." Chu Xiu gripped his Bone Spear tightly, a touch of solemnity in his eyes.

This suddenly appeared Elite Corpse Ghost was precisely the one that previously ambushed Chu Xiu!

After leveling up, the Nether Demon Eyes revealed more information, but what caught Chu Xiu's attention the most was its alarmingly high Constitution of 24.8!

This guy must have hunted quite a few Corpse Demons, with the dual bolstering from the Blood Moon Ceremony and Frenzy Talent, its Basic Attributes had reached an extremely monstrous level!

However, Chu Xiu's face showed no sign of fear, but rather a faint hint of excitement.

Last time when encountering this guy, he could only flee in embarrassment, but this time it was completely different.

The +7 Energy Absorption Heavy Armor was enough to withstand its attacks!

"Then bring it on!"

Chu Xiu licked his lips, and instead of retreating, he advanced, charging forward with a step!

"Screech!!!"

The Elite Corpse Ghost let out a sharp roar as well, charging forward without showing weakness!

Yet just as they were about to collide, Chu Xiu suddenly halted, abruptly stopping his momentum, and at the same time, countless skeletal hands stretched out from the ground, gripping the Elite Corpse Ghost's legs fiercely!

In the next instant, two Yin Wind Blades slashed out from the sides!

"Tearrrr!!!"

The haunting sound of flesh being torn echoed, huge wounds appearing on the right arm and left abdomen of the Elite Corpse Ghost! It was Chu Xiu who had perfectly timed it, triggering an attack from the ambushing Yin Ghosts on either side!

The Skilled level Yin Wind Blades, once fully charged with energy, could slice through a tree trunk as thick as an embracing child; flesh and blood simply couldn't withstand it!

But under the Blood Moon's influence, the Elite Corpse Ghost seemed heedless of its injuries, continuing to stride toward Chu Xiu!

However, its actions were within Chu Xiu's expectations. He crouched low, and a larger Yin Ghost appeared behind it, a level 8 Mortal Tier Corpse Ghost!

Simultaneously, the small-scale Augmented Yin Wind Blades already charged with energy in its claws shot out the moment Chu Xiu ducked!

The Elite Corpse Ghost had no time to dodge, the slash striking its chest accurately! The immense force not only opened a wound across its entire chest, but also knocked it off balance. Waiting patiently, Chu Xiu stabbed his spear with precision, piercing from under the chin, through the entire skull, lifting the Elite Corpse Ghost completely up!

The successive heavy wounds finally elicited a cry of pain from it; its powerful life force had it attempting attacks even after being impaled, but it was merely the final struggle of a dying beast.

Three Yin Ghosts pounced together, their sharp claws tearing it into pieces in the blink of an eye.
