Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 286: Chapter 169: Demonization Attribute_3

Better equipment can increase their survival rate and monster-killing efficiency, it’s a win-win no matter how you look at it.

Even if the price doubled, there would probably still be people willing to buy.

However, considering Zhang Qingshan’s influence, he didn’t overprice.

This move also helps a good brother further raise his prestige.

And at this price, the team members left happily, with some even inviting others over, which undoubtedly would lead to another significant income.

This reminded Chu Xiu that in the beginning, he seemed to have been making extra money by crafting equipment for others.

With a chuckle, Chu Xiu shook his head and did not dwell on it any further, instead heading back to his cave.

Now that he has elevated his power to the pinnacle, it was time to enter the Bloody Arena to make the final preparations for the upcoming decisive battle.

With a thought, the Gladiator Badge appeared in Chu Xiu’s hand, and as a light flashed, his figure disappeared from the cave.

...

At the same time, on another mountain peak, four people were looking toward Chu Xiu’s cave.

Among them was Qin Xiang, and the three beside him all exuded a formidable presence, all of them were King Tier Awakened!

”Qin Officer, did you bring so many things just for this kid?”

A burly man with his arms crossed spoke, his voice like rolling thunder, upper body bare, hair and beard flying, just like a general out of an ancient novel.

”Mu Wu, don’t underestimate him, he is a Civilization Envoy,” Qin Xiang said.

”So what?” The man remained contemptuous, ”Anyone who reaches our level is a genius. Even the most talented Awakened needs time to grow.”

”Moreover, aren’t you all familiar with the Abyss? Profession can be changed, Talent can be upgraded, and if nothing else, one can directly fuse Traits. The Abyss is a paradise for human elites, and talent is just the starting point.”

”In my eyes, compared to talent, mentality, perseverance, and character are far more important!”

”Isn’t Li the best example?” Mu Wu said in a deep voice, looking at the young King Tier behind him.

The latter nodded lightly.

For Awakened, leveling up becomes increasingly difficult. To reach their level, one must survive countless life-and-death experiences and accumulate decades of adventure. Naturally, they know what truly matters in the Abyss.

They have seen too many talented geniuses suddenly perish mysteriously in the Abyss.

Yet Qin Xiang shook his head and said, ”He is different; he is a genius beyond common understanding who will surely stand at the pinnacle of the pyramid. Once you interact with him, you will understand.”

”Is that so,” the man was noncommittal, ”If that’s the case, he is even more dangerous.”

”I have a keen eye for people. Even at a glance, I can be sure this kid is not someone who would sacrifice for humanity or the collective, but one who would stop at nothing to seize power. I wouldn’t be surprised if he becomes a ’Renegade’ in the future, standing against humanity.”

”Such a person can’t complete the ’Ancient Trials’!”

A slender female King Tier standing beside the man also nodded and said, ”Surviving the Ancient Trials isn’t the hard part, but to save civilization from the Abyss, one must take great risks, sometimes even giving up the ’Proof of the Old Days’ Protective Talisman and betting one’s life. Those who complete the Ancient Trials are often self-sacrificial heroes who forget their own lives.”

The Ancient Trials are extremely challenging, but usually, there are places where the ’Proof of the Old Days’ is needed. Giving up this Protective Talisman grants a significant advantage in passing.

But, how many have the courage to fight with their backs to the wall?

At least Mu Wu didn’t think that sneaky Dark Night Monarch would ever do such a thing.

”Not necessarily.” But at this point, Qin Xiang shook his head again, ”If one is strong enough, theoretically, they can bulldoze through the Ancient Trials.”

Qin Xiang’s words surprised the other three, who looked at him in astonishment.

”Hey, Qin Xiang, is that kid’s talent so monstrous?” Mu Wu asked, full of suspicion.

”I’m just saying it’s possible,” Qin Xiang said casually.

”If so, then it’s even more reason to strip his talent early.” Mu Wu’s eyes narrowed dangerously.

”The government’s decision is to cultivate him by all means possible,” Qin Xiang gave Mu Wu a sidelong glance, ”Any Awakened who wants to harm him is an enemy of the government.”

Mu Wu snorted coldly and said no more.

Meanwhile, the two King Tiers behind him exchanged a glance, a thoughtful expression on their faces.
