Chapter 1009: Chapter 442: New Ability

Upon hearing Chu Xiu’s request, Lilith’s recently calmed mood visibly fluctuated again, her eyelids twitching.

“Do you not understand human speech? Do you really think I’d be foolish enough to hand over…”

Before she finished speaking, Chu Xiu abruptly turned and left, his body instantly becoming transparent, clearly about to initiate an escape!

“Hold on!”

Gnashing her teeth, Lilith said, “I can’t give you these two items, but I do have some other things that might interest you Awakened folks.”

As she spoke, she flipped her wrist, and a small white orb appeared in her hand.

[Dao Palace Guardian (SS): The user can obtain the Dao Palace Guardian Skill, mastering powerful martial Absolute Skills, and several hidden Dao Palace Divine Techniques.]

An SS Profession indeed!

This item is indeed only useful for Awakened, and its value is beyond question, worth an absolute fortune, easily selling for billions.

However, Chu Xiu still shook his head, “Not enough.”

Lilith’s face turned dark as she looked at the black-robed figure beside her, “Wu, are you planning to offer nothing?”

“If the task fails, you won’t get the promised benefits either, right?”

“Though it’s true…” Wu’s voice sounded completely indifferent, “Because of someone’s greed for credit, the original plan was ruined. Now this kid is prepared, and I see the success rate as quite low.”

“Being forced to make a wasted trip is already frustrating enough, I don’t want to lose anything more over it.”

Lilith’s expression flickered, her lips moved slightly as she spoke, and for once, the black-robed figure fell silent.

After a while, he raised his hand and waved, a small transparent bottle filled with red liquid appeared in his hand.

“This is Evolutionary Blood, a Demigod Legend artifact, capable of stimulating the body’s potential and enhancing Constitution, an excellent item for advancing from Perfect Demigod to Peak Demigod.”

“If even this cannot satisfy you, then let’s forget this matter.”

An artifact for advancing from Perfect Demigod to Peak Demigod?

Chu Xiu felt a stirring within; indeed, after reaching Full Level, besides continuing to cultivate Divine Skills, one uses various methods to enhance Basic Attributes.

Only by pushing Basic Attributes and Divine Skills to their limits can one be called a Peak Demigod.

As an item that helps Perfect Demigods enhance Constitution, its value is unquestionable.

Furthermore, Chu Xiu could feel Zhang Zhengdao’s gaze grow somewhat fervent.

With a slight hesitation, Chu Xiu nodded, “Alright, let’s do it this way.”

“You give me these two items, and I’ll give you another chance, I’ll wait for the Blood Sea Prison to fully form, and then have a fair fight with you!”

“Okay.” Lilith readily agreed, preparing to throw the items, but was stopped by Wu.

“Wait a moment.”

“How can we be sure you’ll keep your promise?”

“There is no way to ensure that,” Chu Xiu said flatly, “I won’t promise any additional conditions, nor will I let you use this as an excuse to do anything against me.”

“However… if it will ease your minds, I’m willing to swear on my honor that I will not violate the agreement.”

Chu Xiu’s words left Wu silent for a while, then he slowly moved away his hand blocking Lilith, and they both tossed their items.

The two items turned into streaks of light; Chu Xiu reached out and caught them instantly in his hands.

Mid-air, he used the Civilization Domain to ensure they hadn’t done anything to them, and once confirmed, he thought and placed the items into his Storage pouch.

He then looked up, showing a strange smile to the two figures in the sky.

The next moment, without a word, his body began to become illusory!

Lilith and Wu both showed drastic changes in expression!

“What are you doing?!”

Lilith roared, grabbing the Silent Judge in her hand, and blood-colored chains rapidly formed from the air, but upon entering the Civilization Domain, they were invisibly blocked!

Wu tried to advance, but Zhang Zhengdao blocked his path, with the Mixed Yuan Infinity Map appearing beneath his feet!

This suddenly stopped Wu’s advance.

It’s not that he lacked the courage to fight Zhang Zhengdao, it’s just that Chu Xiu’s escape speed was incredibly fast; by the time he got past Zhang Zhengdao, Chu Xiu would already be long gone.

“You’re not keeping your promise!” Lilith finally couldn’t maintain her calm, angrily roaring.

However, Chu Xiu didn’t pay any attention to her, his figure completely disappearing, while Lilith and Wu immediately entered high-dimensional space, only to see Chu Xiu’s back fading into the deeper Abyss Space.

Without a doubt, he had successfully escaped.

Abyss Space is exclusively granted to Awakened as Authority, and even creatures highly adept at the Path of Space can at most avoid being torn apart by Abyss Space’s turbulence; tracking someone within is absolutely impossible.

For as soon as one releases investigative Thought, it is shredded by space turbulence, so how can one lock onto a target?

At least below [God], they had never heard of anyone succeeding.

This left Lilith’s face showing unprecedented anger, and she couldn’t help but curse, “A dishonorable, arrogant, oath-breaking despicable human!”

If Chu Xiu heard her words, he’d surely burst into laughter.

What a joke, how much is Credit Value worth?

An SS artifact in hand is what’s truly valuable.

Those Righteous Dao Cultivators talk of Dao Heart and such, but to Demon Cultivators, swearing is as easy as eating and drinking, and breaking oaths is likely the least of their malevolent deeds.

Before, Chu Xiu feigned proper behavior to maintain his image in the eyes of important figures; now, since his facade has been exposed, there’s no need for pretenses anymore.
