"I’m just afraid that not enough people will co, not enough flesh and blood will be provided."
"But now is not the ti to use the trump card."
Chu Xiu raised his hand and swung the Sin Punishing Demon Saber, slicing the corrupted creatures rushing toward him.
As the corrupted creatures continued to pour in, the entire cavern was almost filled with them. The ground was layered with corpses, and a step down could easily land on the slimy flesh and severed limbs.
At this mont, just as Chu Xiu had anticipated, a large number of corrupted creatures suddenly gushed from the passage he intended to use for retreat!
Now, there were six entrances continuously swarming with troops. The firepower of the ghostly creatures could no longer stop them, and these corrupted creatures, after filling every corner of the cavern, started climbing the stone walls, seeking opportunities to leap down and swarm the isolated ghosts with dozens of tis their number!
Even if the ghostly legion was powerful, under such circumstances, it was gradually becoming unsustainable. So low-tier Yin Ghosts were having their soul bodies bitten, and two Ghost Generals were being wrapped layer upon layer by corrupted creatures, their energy levels dropping rapidly!
However, Chu Xiu still patiently waited.
When the number of corrupted creatures exceeded thirty thousand within the five-thousand-square-ter cavern, a cold smile finally appeared on his face.
"It’s ti."
As Chu Xiu’s thoughts moved, the Array Flags of the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array planted around the cavern suddenly lit up!
In an instant, crimson flas rose throughout the cavern!
The corrupted creatures had no ti to react and were swallowed by the surging flas, carbonizing in the thousands-degree Celsius heat and letting out heartrending screams!
Compared to the Bloody Arena, Chu Xiu expanded the range of the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array by fifty tis at the cost of reduced power!
In return for the decreased power, he gained an extrely large attack range!
As eight fire dragons rose in the cavern, their terrifying breath instantly turned the entire cavern into a sea of fire!
As if rehearsed in advance, all ghostly creatures floated into the air, forming two massive "dark clouds" under the aggregation of the two Ghost Generals.
In the center of the cavern was a space that Chu Xiu had specially arranged beforehand. The average height in the cavern was about ten ters, but here it reached thirty ters! The ghostly legion gathered here could minimize the damage from the flas.
Furthermore, the gathered ghosts could internally transmit and digest the heat, making the weakened Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array bearable.
But these flas were deadly to the corrupted creatures!
The surging sea of fire covered the entire cavern and began climbing along the rock walls, leaving the corrupted creatures attached to the walls with nowhere to escape!
A nauseating sll of burning filled the air, and everywhere in sight were corrupted creatures screaming as they ran through the fierce flas.
In just a few breaths, tens of thousands of corrupted creatures were burned alive!
This dreadful scene changed the countenance of even the Colonel guarding the entrance.
Evidently, he never expected Chu Xiu to possess such terrifying large-scale destructive equipnt!
Chu Xiu, however, showed an expression of anticipation.
He noticed a change in the Colonel’s expression compared to before, unclear whether it was the Pollution’s help that enhanced his intelligence, or the proximity to the pit allowed direct communication with the Calamity at the bottom.
But either way, it indicated that the other side was also making real-ti adjustnts according to Chu Xiu’s thods.
"So, what next, retreat in disgrace, swallowing the loss forcefully, or continue investing the force to engage in a battle of attrition with ?"
And the result was obvious.
Having paid such a high price, the underground Calamity could not possibly withdraw!
With a sharp wailing sound, the speed at which the corrupted creatures poured into the cavern not only did not decrease but continued to increase!
They intended to fill Chu Xiu’s flas with sheer numbers!
The exterior of the corrupted creatures was covered with thick Stone Armor, which was not flammable, so each corrupted creature Chu Xiu burned required a certain amount of Mana.
The opposition likely saw this as well, which is why they chose to continue the battle of attrition with him.
However...
"You don’t think I only have this one trump card, do you?"
"Nor do you think that I’m a Summoner-type profession that mainly relies on the ghostly legion, do you?"
Chu Xiu could hardly keep the smile off his face.
That’s the charm of information asymtry, making the enemy believe they’re one step from success, driven by Sunk Cost to keep doubling down, ultimately losing everything.
He looked up, observing that under the continuous assault of the corrupted inhabitants, the originally six-ter-wide and four-ter-tall entrance had been forcibly expanded by three to four tis, greatly increasing their influx speed!
Countless corrupted creatures poured in, using their flesh to combat the flas!
Chu Xiu, unfazed, rely continued to silently drive the Eight Desolates Nether Fire Array.
Ten thousand, twenty thousand... a hundred thousand!
A massive number of corrupted creatures were annihilated in the blazing flas, with notification sounds continually ringing in Chu Xiu’s ears.

A quarter of an hour later, there was no trace of oxygen left in the cavern, replaced by toxic substances generated from carbonized flesh, and the suffocating stench perated every corner of the cavern.
