Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 467: Chapter 236: Profound Evil Glaze Armor

”Plundering civilizations!”

Chu Xiu was slightly startled in his heart.

He immediately displayed a thoughtful expression.

No wonder those Celestial Kings are so keen on nurturing disciples to become Civilization Envoys...

Vengeance continued, ”The Conquering King among the Eight Celestial Kings is well-known for this. He started by seizing his disciple’s world, then continued to plunder, and has now conquered at least over fifty civilizations. He is currently the most aggressive Celestial King expanding territories for our Human Race in the Abyss World, deriving his name from the word ’conquer’.”

”However, after the flames of war, the population and development index of a civilization will significantly reduce, and integrating different civilizations is also an extremely difficult task. Without appropriate management methods, civilization development can stagnate, and there may be continuous internal strife.”

”Therefore, even though the Conquering King has conquered so many civilizations, the combined scale of those civilizations is far inferior to the Longevity King.”

”The other four Celestial Kings with worlds have the goal of nurturing Civilization Envoys for ’linking.’ Although this alliance method cannot directly increase the scale of a civilization, it can continuously benefit from long-term development.”

As Vengeance finished speaking, Chu Xiu also fully understood his situation.

But there are still three Celestial Kings without worlds...

”I am just like the Tang Monk now,” Chu Xiu smiled bitterly.

In front of the Celestial Kings, he indeed didn’t differ much from a mortal.

”But you don’t have to worry too much; you have our three Celestial Kings from Huaxia looking out for you,” Vengeance’s voice rang out again, ”Moreover, plundering a world is not that easy. You must kill the Master of the World inside their civilizational territory.”

”Oh?”

Chu Xiu’s heart stirred. If that’s the case, his safety would be much higher, even if the Celestial Kings wanted to kill him, it wouldn’t be that easy.

”In any case, your information will now be the highest-level secret of our Investigation Bureau. We’ll use all means to prevent information about you from leaking. Even if it does leak eventually, we’ll mobilize all our forces to protect you.”

After a pause, Vengeance added, ”This is an order personally given by the King of Slaughter.”

The only Civilization Envoy who has managed to complete a solo Trial since the Abyss invasion, becoming the Master of the World in just one trial.

Such a super genius deserves to be treated like this by the government!

Vengeance’s words also allowed Chu Xiu to breathe a bit easier; having a Celestial King covering him indeed brought a solid sense of security.

But soon, he realized a problem.

”How do you plan to protect me?” he asked cautiously.

Vengeance nodded, ”Yes, this is the last thing I want to tell you today.”

”That is, I hope you’ll fully trust us and reveal your true identity.”

”Honestly, my master, the King of Slaughter, arrived in Jiang City yesterday. As long as you agree, he will immediately protect you and personally keep you safe, while also offering you the highest level of training!”

Even Chu Xiu couldn’t help but widen his eyes in shock!

The King of Slaughter has already arrived in Jiang City! And will personally protect him!

That’s a Celestial King!

He never thought he had such significant influence!

Chu Xiu took a deep breath, his expression suddenly changing unpredictably.

Having a Celestial King for protection means he no longer has to worry about his safety.

More importantly, being personally mentored by a Celestial King would instantly grant him resources no less significant than those of any major family descendants!

But here’s a crucial issue.

Is the King of Slaughter trustworthy?

How to determine whether their intention is to ’protect’ rather than ’plunder’?

After pondering for a long time, Chu Xiu finally sighed deeply.

”I apologize, senior. I still want to be responsible for my own life.”

Upon hearing his response, both Vengeance and Qin Xiang sighed lightly at the same time.

But they didn’t show too much surprise, as if they had anticipated Chu Xiu’s answer.

”Since that’s the case, we won’t force you.”

”Further transactions will continue as before, with you choosing people for the trade in the Corpse Demon World.”

”Did you obtain the Anchor Point in this trial?”

Chu Xiu nodded, ”To be honest, I did obtain the Anchor Point, but given the current situation, I cannot hand it over.”

Vengeance was somewhat helpless, ”You really are... I don’t even know what to say to you, but if you don’t give us the Anchor Point, how do you plan to protect your civilization?”

”If I remember correctly, that Calamity is still wandering outside, and in about two or three months, it will achieve Heroic Spirit status.”

”Even without mentioning that Calamity, you should be aware of the mutations in the Corpse Demon World. Just in the past few days, Qin Xiang has found several powerful King Tier creatures near the base, and their strength is constantly increasing.”

”Although these creatures were promptly eliminated, what about afterward? Can you guarantee no Heroic Spirit will appear?”

”I can guarantee you that the Anchor Point will only be used by me alone, and my sole purpose is to protect these hard-earned 20,000 civilization seeds without interfering in any of your matters. Is that okay?”

Vengeance’s voice was earnest; someone like him, a high-status Heroic Spirit, probably needed only one hand to count how many times he’d earnestly asked for help, which already showed ample respect to Chu Xiu.

But Chu Xiu still shook his head and declined.

He couldn’t discern how much truth or deceit was in these old monsters’ words; his ability to see through people only worked somewhat on inexperienced high school students.
