Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Is there something you want to ask me?

Xi Ya appeared both surprised and honored, quickly running forward as she respectfully said, ”What doubts might you have, sir? I will not withhold any information!”

Watching this cautious and respectful demeanor, Chu Xiu internally chuckled while knowing he had achieved his goal.

After he destroyed the Divine Altar, all three Awakened will complete their trials. The other two are of little consequence, but Xi Ya, as a member of the Blood Crystal Royal Family, will inevitably report the details of this trial, drawing Chu Xiu into the Royal Family’s attention.

Compared to a powerful demigod, a mysterious figure of indeterminable power will undoubtedly attract greater attention from the Blood Crystal Royal Family, facilitating future interactions and even bringing unexpected benefits.

For this, he indeed sacrificed quite handsomely.

Cang Kai’s symptoms are challenging to treat, neither particularly complicated nor straightforward.

These symptoms arose from a severe exhaustion due to forcibly wielding the Celestial Star Bow beyond his capabilities.

It’s not just his Life Force; his body’s energy, bones and blood, and even his soul are severely depleted!

Thus, for healing, merely replenishing his Life Force is insufficient; his energy and Divine Soul must be replenished as well!

Cang Kai’s exhaustion is pervasive down to each cell, requiring incredibly precise replenishment to prevent wastage.

Chu Xiu’s Divine Soul, after refining two supreme inheritances and strengthening with the Star Core and Tribulation Body, has reached a strength far exceeding ordinary demigods. Even if he can’t achieve perfect accuracy, he can at least reduce energy loss to an acceptable level.

Next are the three artifacts: [Heaven-Reaching Blood Vine], [Celestial Dragon Golden Pill], and [Celestial Human Divine Thought].

These three [Legendary] artifacts each have specialized effects and their contained Life Force, energy, and Divine Soul Power exceed a Tier at least.

Together with Chu Xiu’s powerful Divine Soul providing astonishing control, bringing back Cang Kai is undoubtedly feasible.

Though a bit disheartened, considering these three artifacts are not of much use to him now, using them to save a Divine Envoy is worthwhile. Besides, whether for engaging with the Blood Crystal Royal Family or retrieving treasures from the remains of the gods, he still needs Cang Kai as an Anchor Point.

After pondering briefly, Chu Xiu looked at Xi Ya and said, ”I have some questions here and hope you can help answer them.”

With that, he pointed a finger, sending a torrent of information into Xi Ya’s mind.

Xi Ya was taken aback, and after processing the information, her expression turned strange.

Chu Xiu had sent her over ten thousand questions, covering every aspect of the Blood Crystal Civilization, from cultural arts to technological development to the cultivation system!

This made her instinctively wary.

But upon detailed checking, these questions did not touch upon any undisclosable secrets. Even if not common knowledge for any Blood Crystal citizen, they were still easily discoverable matters.

It seemed as if the honorable sir was simply too lazy to learn individually and thus sent them all at once.

After hesitating slightly, Xi Ya clasped her fists, saying, ”May I ask for what purpose the honorable sir requires this information?”

”What? Do these questions pertain to secrets of your world?”

Xi Ya waved her hands repeatedly, ”No, no, just a bit curious.”

Chu Xiu paused and replied, ”It’s merely to prepare for potential cooperation opportunities with your civilization in the future.”

”I see,” Xi Ya exhaled lightly, feeling reassured upon hearing this.

Simultaneously, her heart filled with excitement.

As a Royal Family member of the Blood Crystal Civilization, she had a comprehensive grasp of spatial knowledge and almost instantly pieced together the current situation.

”Cang Kai claims to be this gentleman’s envoy, which means the Anchor Point must have fused with him.”

”Given this, the cooperation between the gentleman and the Blood Crystal Civilization is certainly clear—to use me as the intermediary!”

”As the intermediary, even receiving a bit of surplus oil from this, it’s a tremendous opportunity!”

With this thought, Xi Ya decisively began to answer Chu Xiu’s questions in detail.

The other two Awakened beside also realized the significance, enthusiastically, even somewhat ingratiatingly, engaging with Chu Xiu and assured him of their assistance when needed.

This pleased Chu Xiu, who then decided to send the questions given to Xi Ya to the other two as well, out of caution even though he trusted Xi Ya’s sincerity.

While the trio diligently answered questions, Chu Xiu turned his gaze to Cang Kai.

By now, this sturdy man had fully absorbed the power from the three [Legendary] artifacts, although his Tier remained as Level 1 Heroic Spirit, his Basic Attributes were equal to those at Full Level Heroic Spirit.

With respect, he bowed to Chu Xiu, ”Thank you for saving me, sir! The kindness of your rescue is an eternal debt for my people and me, and in the future, we will extend everything to repay your benevolence!”

Chu Xiu gazed at this Hero of the Human Race, seeing in his eyes a trace of indistinct concern, his gaze then extended through the exploration beacon to the populace in other corners of the world.

The crowd did not show any joyous overthrow of the Outer Realm Demons; they maintained their bowing posture. A dense atmosphere of unease lingered still.

After considering for a moment, Chu Xiu said, ”You need not refer to yourself as ’small one’ before me anymore. I care little for such formalities.”

”You shall have full control over this world, and I won’t interfere. Furthermore, if external invaders appear, I will step in to assist.”

”On the condition—”

”That you fulfill your responsibilities as the [Anchor Point].”
