Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

”It’s just that the Abyss is so vast, the probability... is too small!”

After speaking, Vengeance sighed again.

Although he usually had a cold expression, it was evident that he valued the subordinate he had personally promoted.

Meanwhile, Chu Xiu keenly caught a term.

”Lamp?”

”Oh, this, this is an artifact for exploring the Abyss, it can expand the sensing range within the Abyss. Without this artifact, don’t even think about Free Deep Diving.” Vengeance explained.

”Currently, on the market, even the cheapest lamp, which can only increase the exploration distance by 0.1, costs twenty to thirty thousand Cause and Effect Points. Top-tier exploration lamps with a range above 1 are fought over by Heroic Spirits, usually only owned by Demigod experts, with value beyond estimation.”

This statement made Chu Xiu’s heart pound.

He certainly remembered that his Emperor Xi’s Exploration Lamp had a detection range of a full 5 points!

At this moment, Chu Xiu had another thought: this detection range couldn’t be the same measurement unit as the depth of the Abyss, could it...

”No wonder, this turned out to be the ultimate reward for Perfect clearance of the ’Doomsday’ difficulty...”

In almost an instant, Chu Xiu realized the immense value of this Secret Treasure!

Taking a deep breath, Chu Xiu said, ”Senior, please inform me of Senior Qin’s approximate location.”

After those words, Vengeance immediately furrowed his brows: ”This matter is not for you to worry about, just focus on developing steadily. With your level of strength, how dare you think of this matter?”

Chu Xiu replied, ”Senior has misunderstood. I have self-awareness and will absolutely not act recklessly. It’s just that Senior Qin has shown me kindness, and I want to know more about him.”

Upon hearing this, Vengeance furrowed his brows even tighter, a hint of a peculiar expression in his eyes.

From Chu Xiu’s demeanor, it seemed he truly intended to rescue Qin Xiang. However, he had never previously seen this young man as someone with strong feelings and loyalty.

Both his intuition and the analysis from the Investigation Bureau suggested that while Chu Xiu might have some feelings, they weren’t deep. His past rescues appeared more as a disguise or for personal gain.

When faced with genuine interests, he would absolutely refrain from intervening.

Could it be that both he and the people from the Investigation Bureau had misjudged him?

After a brief contemplation, Vengeance said, ”You should stop thinking about this matter.”

”Let me tell you one more thing: even if you could reach the world where Qin Xiang is, you might not make it in time.”

Chu Xiu asked, ”What do you mean, Senior?”

Vengeance explained, ”Firstly, the Heroic Spirit Trial is incredibly dangerous. Cancelling the trial only removes restrictions and failure penalties; it doesn’t mean the dangers vanish. Secondly, you should know that worlds devoured by the Abyss have a different time flow compared to our Blue Star, right?”

Chu Xiu nodded. In his Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace World, just twenty to thirty years passed on Blue Star, while two thousand years had passed in the Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace — a hundredfold difference!

Vengeance’s meaning was clear: it’s possible by the time Chu Xiu arrives, Qin Xiang would have died of old age.

Nonetheless, Chu Xiu still said, ”Please give me the coordinates, Senior. I have my considerations.”

Seeing him determined, Vengeance said no more, lifted his hand, and a stream of information landed in Chu Xiu’s mind.

(4576232, -2358912, 25672, error ±2)

”These are coordinates taking our Blue Star as the starting point. Remember, in the Abyss, a difference of even 1 point represents an immeasurable distance.”

”Moreover, Blue Star is continuously sinking, and the relative positions in the Abyss change constantly. As time goes on, this error will grow larger.”

”Without a ’lamp’, don’t even think about exploring.” Vengeance warned lastly.

Chu Xiu nodded.

Vengeance didn’t say anything more and simply waved his hand, gradually fading away.

Chu Xiu, however, gazed at the coordinates in his hand and let out a deep breath.

Although Qin Xiang showed him kindness, with Chu Xiu’s personality, this gratitude wasn’t enough to make him immediately take risks.

At most, he would try to explore it while on a future adventure.

”With the Deep Diving Safety Rope and Emperor Xi’s Exploration Lamp, I must Free Deep Dive, otherwise I’d waste these two Secret Treasures.”

”However, I need to enhance my own strength first to face the dangers better.”

”So, what I should do now is follow the established plan and continue accumulating, but I need to speed up!”

Vengeance’s words stirred a sense of urgency within him.

Resolving his thoughts, Chu Xiu didn’t contemplate further and returned to Blue Star for a brief rest before quickly re-entering the Hundred Ghosts Melting Furnace World.

In the upcoming time, he and Jiang Miaoyin continued gathering materials and hunting Ghosts in the Inner Layer Area.
