Upon hearing this, the four people’s faces grew even grim, and the skinny man said solemnly, "Senior, the Abyss forbids Awakened from killing each other, not to ntion, we are not nobodies; our clans are guarded by [Heroic Spirits]!"
"Even if we are not your match, are you confident that you can keep all four of us here simultaneously?"
"Should one of us manage to send out information, you’d have to face the wrath of the four great families and the Huaxia Governnt at the sa ti!"
Awakened like them, who are of High Tier, typically possess communication thods similar to those of [Abyss City] and Blue Star. These thods sotis take less than half a second to activate; truly, if you relax for just a mont, the ssage can be sent out.
This is precisely why the Abyss hasn’t devolved into a brutal jungle where the big fish eat the small fish. During the dark era without outside societal constraints, encounters in the Abyss would often escalate into vicious battles, with even High Tier Awakened lying in wait at [Anchor Point] transmission locations to specifically assassinate newcors.
But in the face of their threats, Chu Xiu remained indifferent. He just waved his Soul Banner, and imdiately the Leading Ghost General appeared beside him!
At the sa ti, a bloody figure erged from behind him, its eerie bloodthirsty pupils fixating on the four below, letting out a piercing, sinister laugh.
"I wonder if my two subordinates here are enough to hold off one each?"
"As for the remaining two, I have so confidence in myself." Chu Xiu said calmly.
Jiang Miaoyin also chuckled, "Though not as skilled as the senior, this little girl is not entirely without rit."
"You all..."
Looking at Chu Xiu and Jiang Miaoyin, who didn’t take them seriously at all, the skinny man felt his anger surging.
As four of the leaders from the Celestial chanics Guild, they were well-known figures among the Awakened. When had they ever been so disregarded?
But looking at the two figures beside Chu Xiu, he suppressed his anger.
The fuzzy ghost was self-explanatory; the surging energy it emanated seed almost endless, close enough to a [Heroic Spirit]!
The bloody monster was even stranger; even if it concealed its aura, one could tell it was a high-ranking presence!
With these two monsters aiding him, it was more than enough to hold off and perhaps even decisively defeat the four of them.
Not to ntion the presence of Jiang Miaoyin...
Though the skinny man spoke harshly, he never underestimated this top genius of the Jiang Family! This woman possessed terrifying strength that completely belied her charming appearance. He could even say that any of their four-man group facing her would end in a one-sided slaughter!
"Senior, isn’t your behavior a bit overbearing?" Although the skinny man’s tone didn’t yield, his attitude subtly softened.
"I’ll give you ten minutes to copy the map; that should be concession enough." Chu Xiu said with undeniable authority.
The skinny man exchanged a glance with the three behind him and then said no more, retrieving a Jade Token and tossing it to Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu caught it, still expressionless, though inwardly he let out a small sigh of relief.
He had just been bluffing to scare the four of them.
His Leading Ghost General and Blood Demon Incarnation had recovered less than a quarter of their strength, with the Blood Demon Incarnation being extrely weakened, making them paper tigers that looked more daunting from the outside.
He himself also lacked quick movent thods, and if these four King Tiers were determined to flee, Chu Xiu wouldn’t be able to catch up.
Getting what he wanted without bloodshed was already the best outco.
A stream of Spiritual Power overflowed from his palm, and the Jade Token in his hand lit up with a faint glow. The next mont, a large cloud of black mist spewed out, transforming into a massive map in mid-air.
Chu Xiu was slightly taken aback, but then his eyes lit up. After examining it carefully, his eyes revealed a look of astonishnt.
This [Exorcist Civilization] had utilized so extrely mysterious thod to forge the soul body of a powerful ghost into a map!
Due to the versatile nature of soul bodies, the map could zoom in and out like a modern digital map and contained a wealth of information!
More impressively, it could connect with [Landmarks] established by the [Exorcist Civilization] worldwide, constantly correcting the map’s accuracy in real-ti.
Being adept at manipulating ghosts himself, Chu Xiu couldn’t help but marvel at such an ingenious thod.
"No wonder these four were unwilling to hand over the map; such a map is indeed irreplicable."
"Even relying on a King Tier’s mory to morize it would make it easy to get lost in this extrely complex underground world without [Landmark] corrections." Chu Xiu stroked his chin, revealing a thoughtful expression.
"After verifying the map’s authenticity, please return it to the four of us, senior." The skinny man said with a bitter smile.
However, after hearing his words, Chu Xiu didn’t make any moves, causing the four of them to tense up.
Just as they thought Chu Xiu was going to renege, he suddenly made a grasping motion in the air, and a soul appeared in his hand. As he executed techniques, the soul’s body was stretched and expanded, gradually becoming identical to the map ghost!
With a casual toss, the ghost transford into a cloud of black mist, landing in the skinny man’s hand.
Under the four’s puzzled gazes, Chu Xiu calmly stated, "The thod to create this map is quite ingenious, and it piqued my interest, so I casually copied a version for you. Though it cannot connect with [Landmarks] like the original, it’s better than morizing it by heart."
Upon hearing this, the four were montarily stunned. The skinny man quickly looked down to check, and after confirming that the replicated map was indeed usable and almost identical to his mory, he couldn’t help but show a hint of joy.
