A spatial bag, he considered a treasure. Was this Virtual God Realm so impoverished?
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Just as Chu Tian was about to ask more questions, Yue Shang's expression suddenly changed.
"This is bad. This shouldn't be the human territory. We need to leave quickly. It would be disastrous if other races discovered us."
His face was grave as he looked around.
"Human territory?" Chu Tian frowned.
"Yes, in the Tongtian Great Domain, the human territory is pitifully small. Actually, I'm not human. I belong to the Amo clan, but my appearance and bloodline are still human. Races like ours are slightly better than pure-blooded humans, as we're not specifically targeted by other races.
However, we are still discriminated against. Mixed-bloods are considered the lowest existence among the myriad races."
As Yue Shang spoke, he pulled Chu Tian down to the ground. Being too conspicuous in the air was dangerous.
"What about humans?" Chu Tian asked.
"Humans... are slaves! They are not included among the myriad races!" Yue Shang hesitated, then stared at Chu Tian, as if afraid he would be displeased upon hearing this.
"Slaves?" Chu Tian raised an eyebrow.
He felt a surge of displeasure. Damn it... Humans were the apex of primates on Blue Star.
Now, in this blasted Virtual God Realm, they were slaves.
"Then how do you distinguish humans from other races?" Chu Tian inquired.
"It's simple. First, by appearance. Our mixed-blood clansmen have their own clan markings. Look..." Yue Shang said, raising his arm and showing his palm to Chu Tian.
In the center of his palm was a slit.
"What is this...?"
As Chu Tian was wondering, the slit in his palm slowly opened.
It was an eye, an eye with a pupil containing a three-colored light spot.
"This is the Eye of Amo, unique to our clan."
Chu Tian nodded, understanding now.
"Benefactor, we should leave here first! I can't take you back to my clan, but I can help you figure out where we are. Then we can go our separate ways!"
After Yue Shang finished speaking, Chu Tian nodded again.
In a vast grassland, two figures moved at high speed, but they dared not fly too high, skimming the tips of the grass.
This was no different from flying and did not affect their speed.
The two of them flew for a full three hours and had not yet exited the great grassland.
Chu Tian's divine sense only covered a range of about ten kilometers here.
Therefore, he couldn't ascertain its size.
Heading east, the grass on the plains grew taller. The place where Chu Tian and Yue Shang had just arrived was like a lawn, while the grass beneath their feet was now two to three meters high.
The two of them continued to speed along, and after another three hours.
"We're about to get out!" Chu Tian discovered at the edge of his divine sense range that the grassland was disappearing, replaced by flat ground ahead.
The distance of ten kilometers was traversed by the two in the blink of an eye.
Upon reaching this area, with no obstruction from weeds, they could see a colossal tower in the middle of the vast plain.
The tower was brightly lit, like a massive castle.
On top of this tower, which resembled a giant city, hung countless skull ornaments. Even the tower's main gate was the gaping maw of a colossal skull.
However, the shape of the pagoda seemed strangely familiar.
"This is the territory of the Tower Clan!" Yue Shang's expression changed drastically.
"It's very dangerous?" Chu Tian narrowed his eyes.
Even from a great distance, he could feel the waves of bloody aura emanating from the tower.
"It is very dangerous. We shouldn't go any closer. Now that we know this is the Tower Clan's territory, we can pinpoint our location. The Amo clan is to the southeast of the Tower Clan. As long as I keep heading southeast, I can pass through the Tower Clan's territory and return to my clan!
Unfortunately, we can't use any teleportation arrays along the way, so we have to fly back!"
Yue Shang expressed some regret. "We're unlucky to have landed here. There's no other way. Who knew that the Tower Clan and the Amo clan are neighboring major races, with constant friction and long-standing animosity!"
"Is it far? And in which direction is the human territory?" Chu Tian narrowed his eyes, his gaze flickering slightly. He estimated that the human territory might be even further away.
"If we fly back at full speed, it will take about twenty days! Humans... are to the west, the direction we came from! We have to cross the territories of seventeen major clans!" Yue Shang looked somewhat embarrassed.
"Uh..." Chu Tian's head buzzed after hearing this. This was too much...
"What are the characteristics of the Tower Clan?" Chu Tian asked.
"Their innate divine ability is a pagoda, with immense power," Yue Shang replied.
"Is that eye of yours also an innate divine ability?" Chu Tian glanced at his hand.
"Yes!" Yue Shang nodded.
Chu Tian was curious to ask about its function.
However, he remembered that inquiring about someone's innate divine ability upon first meeting was a major taboo in the cultivation world, so he didn't press further.
Instead, he extended his hand.
*Ching...!*
A nine-story pagoda appeared in his hand.
Yue Shang stumbled back two steps, staring at the pagoda in Chu Tian's hand.
"You... you are... from the Tower Clan's royal lineage?" he exclaimed, but then realized it might be incorrect.
"Can I impersonate the Tower Clan like this?" Chu Tian asked back directly, without answering.
"Impersonate... Benefactor, you wish to infiltrate? Hmm... difficult!" Yue Shang slowly shook his head.
"Difficult? Their towers don't look like this?" Chu Tian frowned slightly.
"No, no, it's not that they don't look like this, they even... have the same aura. It's just... Benefactor, your pagoda has nine layers! That's the characteristic of the Tower Clan's royal lineage. If you enter like this... you might be surrounded by followers and unable to leave at all!"
