Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

”So... what do you plan to do with that Divine Gifted Meteorite Iron?”

On the way to the target location, the pink-haired girl, after hesitating for a while, couldn’t help but ask.

”You’re still not giving up, huh,” Chu Xiu chuckled somewhat amused.

”Because I always mess up the tasks given by my master... but rest assured, I won’t make a move against you again. I was thinking perhaps I could use something else to trade with you in the future,” the pink-haired girl said.

Chu Xiu scrutinized her again. From her appearance and comprehension, she didn’t seem very old. When they first met, Chu Xiu thought the other was at the King Tier at most, not expecting her strength to be this strong.

Although age can’t prove anything for an Awakened, a Heroic Spirit as young as her made Chu Xiu curious about her master’s identity.

”What’s your name?” Chu Xiu asked after some thought.

”Chen Yuan.”

Upon hearing this name, Ella looked up at her in surprise and asked, ”Is your sister Chen Huang?”

Chen Yuan nodded slightly, and Ella’s expression became peculiar. She glanced at Chen Yuan several times but ultimately said nothing.

Chu Xiu looked at the two of them in confusion. He hadn’t heard of either name; could it be that Chen Yuan is from the Alliance Council? Is that why Ella knows?

However, he didn’t dwell on it and stated frankly, ”Naturally, it’s for refining Equipment. If you can gather enough Cause and Effect Points in the future, it’s not impossible for me to give it to you.”

While refining the Heavy Sword Chi Dragon would greatly enhance Chu Xiu’s strength, the time it takes to refine Mythical Equipment is far longer than for Legendary Equipment. To achieve it in a short time, he must invest a significant amount of extra Cause and Effect Points to speed up the process, which increases his refining costs quite a bit.

So, if the girl could indeed offer a high price, he wasn’t necessarily unwilling to part with it. After all, in the current situation, enhancing his strength in the short term is most important.

If he could gather another three or four million Cause and Effect Points and cultivate the Great Freedom Celestial Demon God to the Eighth Layer, Chu Xiu would have much more assurance of self-protection.

While the three were talking, the auction site in the central area appeared before them, completely destroyed.

The Green Lady had given them the task of retrieving the [Seeds] from five nearby Heroic Spirits. Chu Xiu extended his Divine Sense and quickly locked onto a man leisurely sitting atop a building.

He activated Garuda’s Wings and flew over. The man seemed prepared and shouted warmly, ”Brother Qin!”

Chu Xiu had met this person before and had a great conversation at the trade meeting. Landing, he cupped his fists and said, ”Brother Li, you probably know the purpose of my visit this time, right?”

”Of course, the government’s broadcast is heard throughout the city, how could I not hear it.” The Heroic Spirit named Li smiled warmly.

”In that case, may I know the whereabouts of your [Seed], Brother Li?”

”Brother Qin!” Li Rong sighed regretfully, ”When the [Seed] landed not far from me, I suspected it was some Outer Realm Demon’s conspiracy and made up my mind long ago that I’d rather die than become such an ugly creature, so I didn’t pick it up!”

”Now, I have no idea where it is; it might have been picked up by some Low Tier Awakened.”

He looked at Chu Xiu with sincere eyes, ”Brother Qin, you know my nature; I mean every word I said. I never thought my firm resolve would become a hindrance now! Isn’t that just unfair? I wonder if Brother Qin could show some understanding?”

As he spoke, he discreetly handed over a small chunk of Cause and Effect Points, ”Brother Qin, help me out; I will repay you greatly in the future!”

Chu Xiu looked at him speechlessly, unwilling to argue further. He merely said lightly, ”Brother Li, since I accepted this task, I have already prepared to make enemies. Handing over the Seed will earn you national rewards. If Brother Li doesn’t hand over the [Seed], don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

As he finished speaking, thick Demonic Qi surged from behind Chu Xiu, causing Li Rong’s expression to change multiple times before he finally snorted coldly and tossed a [Seed] out.

Chu Xiu took it and didn’t bother dealing with the grim-faced Li Rong, heading directly to the next person’s location.

However, when he arrived at the designated location, the Heroic Spirit who should have been stationed there was gone. Chu Xiu scanned with his Divine Sense, only finding a fleet organizing and transporting supplies nearby.

Chu Xiu lightly pressed an earring, ”Green Lady senior, the ’Shadow Grandmaster’ is not at the specified location.”

”Hold on.”

The reply came through the earring almost immediately.

Soon, Chu Xiu felt an invisible wave sweeping over him from the central command tower in the distance. Moments later, the slightly lazy voice of Green Lady sounded, ”Found him, in the basement of ’NK Bar,’ three streets away from you.”

With those words, Chu Xiu couldn’t help showing a surprised look. This Heroic Spirit clearly specialized in concealment, even his Divine Sense struggled to find it, yet Green Lady, from dozens of kilometers away, located them with just a gentle sweep in less than a second.

”This is the reconnaissance profession at the Demigod Tier!”

Chu Xiu realized that if the other party decided to investigate him, his concealment would be completely exposed.

”After all, I’m just at the King Tier; I’m still too weak in front of a Demigod.”

With some lament, Chu Xiu didn’t think further. With a flicker of his body, he arrived at the location Green Lady mentioned and unhesitatingly punched out!
