Chapter 1162 When the Supreme Is Absent, the Saints Reign Supreme

Two purple Sky Demons gradually approached.

This time, they were followed by more than 2,000 Sky Demons, mostly of various colors.

They had learned their lesson. The Sky Demons with lower cultivation realms stopped tens of kilometers away from Chu Tian and the others.

The two purple Sky Demons came alone.

After they advanced a certain distance, the Sky Demons behind them gradually followed, always maintaining a distance of about twenty li.

Chu Tian narrowed his eyes.

Could it be that their bloodline connection skill had a maximum coverage range of this much?

As the two purple Sky Demons drew closer, Chu Tian smiled.

“I said, you fellow, I beat you away… so you went back to find your dad?”

Chu Tian’s voice was incredibly loud.

The purple Sky Demon who had fought him earlier froze for a moment.

He didn't understand what Chu Tian meant.

However, Hong Jie and the others, who were watching from afar, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The two purple Sky Demons were of different sizes. The one who had fought Chu Tian earlier was fifteen meters tall, while the one who had just arrived was twenty meters tall.

The difference in size indeed made them look like a father and son.

Chu Tian wasn't finished.

“I said… if I beat up your dad, would you two cry and run back to find your grandpa?”

Chu Tian sneered, his mouth curled in mockery.

At this moment, Chu Tian had no idea that Sky Demons were not born.

Sky Demons were conceived in the demonic dens located in the central depths of the Sky Demon Domain. Therefore, they were completely unfamiliar with the terms "father" and "grandfather."

However, the mocking intent in Chu Tian's expression was understood by the two Sky Demons.

Sky Demons were inherently extremely arrogant. They looked down on humans, always considering them to be like ants. The purple Sky Demon that Chu Tian had beaten away had already lost face. On the way back, he had devoured all the Sky Demons he had brought with him to prevent the news of his defeat from spreading.

However, before he could finish these actions, the purple Sky Demon beside him arrived. This purple Sky Demon was his direct superior. Upon seeing his subordinate devouring his own subordinates, he immediately intervened to stop him. But after learning why he was doing it, he directly acted and swallowed all the remaining ones with one bite. If it weren't for the strict rule that they could not devour purple Sky Demons to enhance themselves, this fellow might have been eaten as well.

This subordinate of his, having been defeated by a human in a one-on-one fight, was equivalent to slapping his superior’s face. If other demons found out, he would surely be ridiculed.

There were other ways to improve, entirely through devouring. However, they couldn't arbitrarily devour their own kind. Devouring their own kind would result in a special aura surrounding them. If the concentration reached a certain level, they would be executed by the Sky Demon's investigation team.

They had only two ways to upgrade:

First, by accumulating military achievements and obtaining demon energy pearls to devour.

Second, by killing other races and directly devouring them to seize their cultivation power.

In summary, it was combat!

Only through combat could they improve. If they didn't improve, they would eventually face being devoured or serving as cannon fodder.

“Human, what clan do you belong to? I can smell your aura, and it’s not that of a pure-blooded human. How did you enter our territory?” the twenty-meter-tall purple Sky Demon asked, his voice deep and resonant, staring at Chu Tian.

“Oh? I’m not a pure-blooded human? You can smell that? Are you a dog or something?” Chu Tian was taken aback.

The other party’s reaction to Chu Tian’s reply made him realize that this fellow had no idea what a dog was. However, he didn't dwell on this matter.

He continued, “Yes, I smell a more ancient aura on you. This venerable one has lived for ten thousand years and has fought countless humans. The humans who have died under my hands number in the millions, if not tens of millions. I have never seen a human as strange as you. Tell me… where are you from?”

Hearing this, Chu Tian’s mind stirred.

This fellow really did have a dog’s nose to be able to discern his aura as different from other humans. He also claimed that he carried a more ancient aura. Could it be the aura of Blue Star? It should be so. Since Blue Star was the ancestral land of humanity, his aura was mistaken for an ancient one.

It seemed his identity as being from Blue Star could not be publicly revealed yet. Previously, he had heard Hong Jie and the others say that it had been ten thousand years since anyone from Blue Star had ascended. If he revealed now that he was from Blue Star, it would undoubtedly cause a great stir. Humans were already suppressed in the Void God Realm. If they heard that he came from Blue Star, it might even prompt other races to unite and hunt down pure-blooded humans.

Currently, as long as pure-blooded humans stayed within the Yanhuang Domain, they were relatively safe. With the protection left by the so-called Supreme, they could hold their ground. However, if other races hostile to humans joined forces and advanced on the Yanhuang Domain, that would be uncertain.

It seemed he needed to tell Hong Jie and the others to not spread the word after they returned. He also hoped that the scattered Blue Star humans in the Void God Realm would not expose their identities too early.

What Chu Tian was most worried about was Gao Kai and the others, and how they were faring. Why couldn't he contact them yet? Moreover, the world he was currently in didn't seem too different from Blue Star. Although in this world, humans without cultivation were as insignificant as grass, and beings with cultivation were the rulers, yet… what was the difference between these beings and ordinary people?

Furthermore, Chu Tian really wanted to know what race those purple soldiers from the Void God Realm belonged to. He had asked Hong Jie and the others, even describing the appearance of the purple soldiers. However, Hong Jie and the others were clueless, saying they had never seen or heard of them. Chu Tian was beginning to doubt if he had come to the wrong place. But everyone he had interacted with here said this was indeed the Void God Realm. Moreover, the teleportation gate he used was created by his grandfather and Daotian. They shouldn’t betray him, right?

“Human, I am speaking to you!”

The Sky Demon opposite him became furious when he saw Chu Tian zoning out. However, this fellow was clearly intelligent. The aura on Chu Tian puzzled him, and he simultaneously judged that this fellow was certainly not weak. The purple demon beside him, although not as strong as himself, was still a purple demon. This strange-looking human had almost annihilated his entire squad single-handedly. Furthermore, under the bloodline connection, he had injured all the Sky Demons with a single blow and even cracked the purple demon's fingernail.

He had never encountered such a powerful human before. The so-called Saint Kings of the human race were all pitifully weak. Coupled with the ancient aura emanating from this fellow, could he be a Supreme from some ancient period of the human race?

The thought shocked him. How could he have such an idea? This era was one where Supremes did not appear, and Saints reigned as Kings. How could humanity possibly produce a Supreme?
