Chapter 281: Demon Skull True Lord

Sky Demon suddenly widened his eyes.

“This… this is Heaven Demon Origin!”

He abruptly turned to look at Gu Jin, that flawlessly perfect yet eerily demonic face.

“Where did you come from!”

This was an interrogation.

Gu Jin stood up, smiling faintly. “Where did I come from?”

“Let me think.” His hand stroked the soft black feathers on his body, as if seriously contemplating.

“Probably… from killing two or three Sky Demons.”

Gu Jin said this very calmly, his tone unchanged, his transcendent aura not shifting in the slightest, as if he were merely talking about slaughtering a few chickens or ducks.

Sky Demon Xiang Yu’s pupils trembled.

Killed a few Sky Demons…

“Eat him, and your Origin Source might be fully restored.”

Gu Jin smiled, reaching out to pull Sky Demon up, placing three Heaven Demon Origins into Xiang Yu’s hand.

Sky Demon Xiang Yu’s lips moved, wanting to say something, but he saw the black feathers flutter, and the person before him had already vanished.

He looked at the three Heaven Demon Origins in his hand, feeling no particular emotional fluctuation over the deaths of his own kind.

Since he had been half-driven, half-willingly left the Endless Demonic Sea, the life and death of his kin no longer concerned him.

Sky Demon crouched on the ground, swallowing all three Heaven Demon Origins into his stomach.

Sky Demons were an extremely special type of demon; their bodies produced exceptionally pure energy origins.

Only members of their own race could absorb them, with Jiang Yan being the sole exception. When each Sky Demon died, they would have their origin devoured by their kin to strengthen the race.

Thus, Heaven Demon Origins generally could not fall into outside hands. Given this, there was only one possible explanation—

That birdman had killed at least three Sky Demons!

What level had his strength reached? Xiang Yu could hardly imagine.

But regardless of the truth, Sky Demon swallowed the origins.

He could feel his lost Origin Source slowly repairing itself.

He was a Sky Demon, and also a Demon Skeleton; he perfectly combined the bloodlines of the Life and Death Patriarch and the Sky Demon, making him the most genetically perfect demonic creature.

Xiang Yu was perhaps an absolute genius even among the Demon Race.

He did not know why that birdman had helped him, but he knew one thing: everyone here must die!

Devoured by him, one by one.

Third Heaven

Fourth Heaven

Fifth Heaven!

Sky Demon sensed unparalleled power gathering within him.

His terrifying absorption ability allowed him to completely absorb these three origins in a short time, not only restoring his strength from ten thousand years ago but even advancing further.

Sky Demon was astonished. These three Heaven Demon Origins contained energy of at least the Second Heaven level or above. That birdman’s methods truly reached the heavens and penetrated the earth.

Was he not afraid of being hunted by the Demon Race?

But for now, he would devour everyone here.

Sky Demon’s crimson pupils fixed directly on the center of the battle, and… that towering stone statue.

Life and Death Legacy Divine Ability.

Demon Skeleton True Lord!

Sky Demon closed his eyes. Within the trembling space, a mighty being of overwhelming demonic power quietly manifested.

Sky Demon’s physical body disintegrated, his bones shattered, his eyeballs exploding into splattering plasma.

He was ground into a pulp by that powerful pressure, then reassembled, as an unparalleled aura spread forth.

A colossal demonic phantom tore through the sky, descending upon this realm like a great sun.

Demon Skeleton True Lord! Descended.

Sky Demon transformed into a ten-thousand-meter-long rainbow, descending upon the battle of gods like a towering sun.

Countless Demon God phantom images swarmed across the entire battlefield, making the stone statue among these chaotic phantoms appear as insignificant as a tiny ant.

Sky Demon’s blood-red eyes, resembling meteorite agates, stared at the stone statue and the Martial God fleeing in terror, a sinister and eerie smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

“It’s the legacy Divine Ability of the Life and Death Demon Skeleton! How does this Sky Demon know it?!”

“Run! Run now! He’s not a Sky Demon at all—he’s from the Demon Race’s royal lineage!”

No one had the strength to fight any longer. Even among Martial Gods, there were vast differences.

The original Sky Demon was already fearsome enough, but now, as if the stone statue had unlocked his meridians, not only had his Realm advanced by leaps and bounds, but his Bloodline had also been hidden so deeply.

The peerless Divine Ability of the Life and Death lineage—it was an overwhelmingly powerful existence throughout the entire Galactic Domain!

How could such a being not be imprisoned in the Endless Demonic Sea by true great powers? How was he let loose like a rabid dog?

Realm! Bloodline! Laws! Talent! Divine Ability!

An absolute, complete suppression.

In this Small World, Sky Demon was the absolute ruler.

He stomped down, and a shadow enveloped the entire Void.

This time, the stone statue dared not confront him head-on and directly vanished into the Void, hiding somewhere unknown.

“Come out!”

The Demonic Skeleton True Body roared, tearing apart the surrounding Void with both hands, shredding countless fragments.

Some Martial Gods who had hidden in the Void out of fear were instantly shaken out.

“No! Please, no!”

The massive form of the Demonic Skeleton True Body crushed the once-arrogant Martial God into nothingness. Countless Laws cascaded down, and the Great Path wailed in sorrow—a phenomenon that only occurred when a Martial God perished, returning their Laws to the world.

Thus, a generation of Martial Gods met their end at the hands of Sky Demon.

“Hahahahahaha!”

Sky Demon, transformed into the Demonic Skeleton True Lord, laughed maniacally, opening his Greedy Abyss Maw to devour the Martial God’s remains.

He scanned his surroundings, as if searching for the stone statue’s location.

Unfortunately, he found nothing.

Thus, he could only vent his fury on these Martial Gods.

Whether they had provoked him or not, Sky Demon would kill them all without discrimination.

Sky Demon viewed every life equally.

Sometimes, he showed bias.

For instance, the Fairies of the elf race were the most beautiful, with tender flesh, perfect for steaming.

The giant race was too tough, best dried and chewed for their unique elasticity.

…

For many races, Xiang Yu had a perfect way of preparing them.

“Ah, right, Xuan Nan… hehehe.”

Sky Demon sneered, searching everywhere for that turtle’s figure.

At this moment, Xuan Nan was frantically fleeing through this space.

“Damn it! Damn it! What kind of space is this? Why can’t I break through and leave?!”

He cursed as he ran, transforming into his turtle shell and crashing recklessly through the space.

Within the layered, turbulent undercurrents of space, the stone statue sighed:

“The Sect cannot be destroyed by this Demon Lord, so I cannot let you leave just yet.”

Sky Demon pursued Xuan Nan.

However, this fellow’s turtle shell was slippery, and his Physical Body was unparalleled, making him difficult to catch for the moment.

So, Sky Demon shifted his gaze to the Qilin person.

“This guy seems quite hot-tempered. I won’t allow anyone to be more arrogant than me!”

Sky Demon turned and chased after the Qilin person, his giant demonic palm slamming down.

Qilin person: ¯_(⍤o⍤)_/¯

Boom!

The next second, the Void gained a flattened red sheet.

The Qilin person lay barely alive, barely recovering, only to be stomped on by another foul foot.

Boom!

The Qilin man was trampled into the Void, clinging to life with only a faint breath left.

Sky Demon then turned his gaze toward the other Martial Gods.

“Delicious! Truly delicious!”

He gleefully dashed toward these powerful beings, his massive maw gaping wide, flesh and blood churning into a pulp within, crimson droplets dripping with ravenous anticipation.
