An invasion from the Abyss? I, a demonic cultivator, laughed.

Chapter 77 The Plan to Turn Defeat into Victory

"A plan to turn defeat into victory?" Jiang Xue's eyes inevitably revealed a look of doubt.

Given the current situation, how could there possibly be a plan to turn the tide?
In a head-on fight, we would be no match for those three elders, especially the eldest elder, who can kill anyone he points at. How can we compete with that?
But if they were to wage guerrilla warfare, firstly, they wouldn't even know how to disrupt the ritual, and secondly, the ritual's progress would soon be completed. Once the evil god descended, death would still be the only outcome!

"What are you afraid of? You can always use the gadgets to escape."

"Besides, you have no other choice but to trust me, don't you?"

Chu Xiu's calm tone seemed to possess a convincing magic. After hesitating for a long time, the girl gritted her teeth.

"Tell me your plans."

Seeing that she agreed, Chu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, picked her up, and then rushed towards the bell tower in the village.

He moved very quickly and soon arrived at the foot of the bell tower, the tallest building in the village, nearly thirty meters high. Chu Xiu estimated that this was about the same altitude at which the elders usually flew.

Below the clock tower, there is a central courtyard resembling a garden, with many obstacles such as stone corridors. Even if the elders were to send down a rain of fire from the sky, it should be able to hold out for a while.

"What do I need to do?" Jiang Xue adjusted her black-rimmed glasses and asked nervously.

"Live on." After Chu Xiu finished speaking, he disappeared into the clock tower in a flash, leaving Jiang Xue completely bewildered.

Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside. Soon after, a villager peeked in and, upon seeing Jiang Xue, immediately shouted excitedly, "Here! There's an offering here!"

His roar immediately caused a commotion around him. Guards on horseback rushed over from a distance, and an elder who was searching nearby was also drawn to the scene!
This was Chu Xiu's plan: to use his own advantages to reduce the enemy's top combat power as much as possible! He couldn't allow himself to be surrounded and killed by the enemy on one side.

He had deliberately revealed his presence when he arrived, and Jiang Xue was the bait he left behind!

He himself remained quietly hidden inside the clock tower.

Before long, he saw a fiery red figure drifting in from a distance.

"coming!"

Chu Xiu held his breath. With the help of the Qi Concealment Technique, Chu Xiu almost blended into the surrounding environment. When the elder flew over, he only glanced at the bell tower and then paid no more attention to it.

In just a few breaths, he had already flown to the vicinity of the clock tower and began to rain down fire upon Jiang Xue below!
Chu Xiu could see Jiang Xue's disheveled figure dodging, as if she might be hit by the flames at any moment!

But he still didn't move! Jiang Xue's origins are definitely not simple; she must have other means of survival and won't be so easily caught!

He just needs to wait quietly for the perfect opportunity.

And soon that opportunity arose.

As the elder chased Jiang Xue, he got closer and closer to the bell tower! Finally, in a split second, he was less than ten meters away from the bell tower!
"It's now!"

Chu Xiu moved swiftly, rushing towards the top of the bell tower!

Elite warriors have strong perception abilities, so Chu Xiu couldn't just swagger around in a suitable position to ambush them, as that would only arouse the elders' suspicion!

In reality, Chu Xiu had been hiding in the middle of the bell tower, concealed outside the thick stone wall, observing the situation only through a small gap.

At this moment, his concealment technique was at its maximum, and with the [Silent Step Boots], he moved without making a sound, just like a silent ghost!

He was like an invisible gust of wind, rushing to the top of the clock tower in just a few breaths!

Through the open floor-to-ceiling window, you can clearly see Elder Si Huo's body floating outside!

At this moment, his attention was entirely focused below, searching for Jiang Xue's whereabouts!
"Die!" Chu Xiu didn't hesitate at all. The power of the perfected Misty Steps accumulated under his feet. With a loud bang, the bricks and stones on the ground shattered on the spot. At the same time, Chu Xiu transformed into a stream of light and shot out!

With the aid of the concealment technique, he did not arouse the elder's suspicion at all. It was not until the moment the true intentions were revealed that Elder Si Huo suddenly turned his head, his eyes showing a look of horror!
But it was too late. In the blink of an eye, Chu Xiu had covered more than ten meters and pierced Elder Si Huo's back with the bone spear in his hand!

"Pfft!"

The Fire Elder's body was pierced through without any doubt, and at the same time, Chu Xiu's entire body pressed down on his back!
"you!"

Elder Si Huo wanted to say something, but his chest cavity was pierced by the bone spear. He only managed to utter one syllable before his throat was choked by the gushing blood. Before he could resist, the levitation spell could not be maintained, and under the influence of gravity, the two began to fall rapidly from the sky!

Elder Si Huo tried to shake Chu Xiu off, but Chu Xiu grabbed his head and pressed his large, bone-armored hand down his head! At the same time, his knee pressed hard against Elder Si Huo's back, using him as a cushion to fall from the air together!
Chu Xiu's strength was extraordinary, and he couldn't break free no matter what he did. He could only watch as the ground in front of him rapidly enlarged!
"boom!"

With a loud bang, Chu Xiu, riding Elder Si Huo, crashed heavily to the ground! Even though the levitation spell was restarted at the last moment, the enormous impact still left his entire face a bloody mess!
But the Fire Elder laughed instead. He suddenly turned his head, and almost his entire face fell off. Blood gushed from his mouth, his teeth were almost all broken, and his entire alveolar bone was fractured. Yet he still let out a "hee hee hee" laugh. At the same time, surging flames rose from his body!

"Are all the people in this village fucking perverts?!"

Chu Xiu cursed and reacted quickly, dodging the beam of fire that shot past. At the same time, the Yin Wind Banner appeared in his hand. He raised his hand and flicked it, and a wind blade that had solidified into a physical form shot out, severing Elder Si Huo's legs at the knees!

The immense pain caused him to scream, but the screams quickly turned into laughter. A large amount of deformed flesh grew from his broken kneecap, forming slippery tentacles. These tentacles crawled rapidly on the ground, dragging the remaining half of Elder Si Huo's body away at high speed.

This bizarre scene sent chills down Chu Xiu's spine, but he naturally couldn't let this person go. He waved the Yin Soul Banner, and ten Yin Ghosts pounced out together, pinning down Elder Si Huo and beginning to frantically gnaw at his body.

Countless tentacles grew out of the torn flesh. He still wanted to grab Chu Xiu, but Chu Xiu just snorted coldly, and the Heavenly Demon Hand appeared around him and frantically struck the body of Elder Si Huo!

Even though the power of the Heavenly Demon Hand had decreased from several meters away, each punch was still powerful enough to break his bones. Moreover, the Heavenly Demon Hand's attack speed was extremely fast, with punch after punch falling like raindrops!
"Puff puff!"

The elder's body was beaten into a pile of mud, and every bone in his body was broken by the storm of punches!
Under such intense attacks, the mutated flesh and blood in his body gradually stopped growing, and his body was completely torn apart by the swarming Yin ghosts until he was motionless.

[Task Contribution +250]

The notification sound rang in Chu Xiu's ears, which made him stop and take a heavy breath.

After killing Elder Si Huo, my mission contribution points increased by 250 points!

If he can pass the trial, such a high number of contribution points will bring him great rewards.

However, Chu Xiu felt no joy whatsoever.

Even if we kill one, there are still two left!

This time, he was ambushed, and the guy just happened to be high in the air and unable to retaliate immediately, which is why he was able to kill a warrior-level elite so easily.

It can only be said that the Qi Concealment Technique made a great contribution.

However, if they were to face each other head-on, Chu Xiu would have a difficult time dealing with the situation.

Not to mention, there's an even stronger one, the Grand Elder, who was already a warrior-level warrior before the mutation, and whoever he points at dies!
After one of the elders dies, the other side will definitely be on guard.

Chu Xiu wiped the blood from his face and glanced at the distance. Although he had killed the elder, Jiang Xue had been cornered by a group of soldiers.

Chu Xiu, expressionless, reactivated the Concealing Qi Technique, his figure disappearing into the darkness.

What plan is there to turn the tide?

Everyone loves a dramatic escape from a desperate situation, but the reality is that the enemy isn't stupid and won't leave any loopholes that could turn the tide.

His real purpose was to snatch the escape device from Jiang Xue the moment she was driven to the brink of despair!
