Chapter 1638 What kind of monster is that kid?
The fierce battle outside the demon's defensive line has finally come to an end.

Despite the formidable strength and ferocity of the demon cultivators, the continuous influx of human cultivators into the battlefield eventually led to the complete annihilation of the rampaging ninth-tier demons.

After this battle, almost all of the invading ninth-tier demons, except for a few who managed to escape, were beheaded, and their corpses paved a blood-red path outside the defensive line.

After eliminating the ninth-tier demon outside the defensive line, the human cultivators did not delay any longer. They joined forces to activate their divine powers and techniques, forcefully shattering the protective barrier set up by the demons, and surged into the demon-controlled area like a tidal wave.

Countless human cultivators broke through the defenses from all directions, but the scene before them aroused suspicion in everyone's hearts.

Within the demon-controlled area, there were hardly any demon cultivators to be seen.

The group only managed to kill a few stragglers. The demon cultivators who should have flocked to them endlessly vanished into thin air as if they had never existed.

Even more astonishingly, the colossal star gate that stood between heaven and earth in the distance, connecting to another world, had also vanished without a trace, as if it had been completely erased.

This bizarre scene filled all the human cultivators at the Integration Realm with doubt and a sense of unease.

This hard-won victory came too suddenly and too strangely.

Although Su Fan was the first to charge into the demon's defensive line, he was ultimately alone and outnumbered.

It should be noted that the number of demonic cultivators who invaded Xuan Guangtian this time was countless, with tens of thousands of ninth-order great demons alone.

How could that kid possibly have slaughtered so many demon cultivators all by himself?

Moreover, a avatar of a celestial demon from the upper realm has descended upon Xuan Guangtian. How could that kid possibly withstand such terrifying combat power?

It wasn't until the group fought their way to the gates of the Hongshan Immortal Sect and met up with the Sun God Venerable and others that they managed to glean some information about Su Fan from them.

All the late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators turned their gazes to the Zheng Yuan Tian group, their expressions filled with inquiry and solemnity.

“Junior Brother Shidao…that Su Fan, is he from your Zhengyuan Heaven? I’ve heard he’s an evil cultivator…”

One of the late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, unable to contain his doubts, spoke first, his tone filled with solemnity.

"Fellow disciples, you jest... Su Fan is an elder of our 'Demon Sun Divine Palace,' how could he possibly be an evil cultivator..."

Upon hearing this, Peng Shidao became agitated and immediately retorted with a displeased expression and a forceful tone.

"Junior Brother Su Fan merely cultivates demonic techniques that are slightly unorthodox. I swear in the name of the Sect Master of the 'Demon Sun Divine Palace' that Junior Brother is absolutely not the evil cultivator rumored in the world. His character is by no means that of a wicked person..."

After hearing Peng Shidao's explanation, the other late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators exchanged glances but did not pursue the matter further.

Now that the demon invasion has just been repelled, it is precisely the time when the human race needs to work together. Who would bother with these trivial matters?

Besides, even if Su Fan is truly an evil cultivator, isn't he still a human cultivator at heart?

They're certainly closer to us than those invading alien cultivators.

At this moment, everyone had the same question on their minds.

What exactly happened in the demon-controlled area just now?

Who exactly blocked the attack of that avatar of the celestial demon from the upper realm?

Who exactly slaughtered the countless demons within the controlled area?

Who exactly destroyed that enormous star gate that connected to another world?

Although this battle successfully thwarted the demons' invasion of Xuan Guangtian and preserved Xuan Guangtian's homeland.

But this victory came too strangely and too abruptly.

If the truth behind the victory cannot be understood, people will ultimately find it difficult to feel at ease.

After all, aside from holding back those ninth-tier demons on the demon defense line, they hardly contributed any real effort.

This victory seemed to have fallen into their laps out of thin air.

“Junior Brother Shidao…we have no intention of framing Junior Brother Su Fan, but we have some doubts in our hearts. Can you contact him right now…” The cultivator who had spoken earlier softened his tone and asked again.

Upon hearing this, Peng Shidao secretly curled a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, his gaze slowly sweeping over the group of old monsters in the Integration Realm around him, his tone carrying a hint of arrogance.

"Junior Brother Su Fan's strength far exceeds everyone's imagination. He once single-handedly and in the blink of an eye completely annihilated our Zheng Yuan Heaven's 'Secret Demon God Sect'..."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding Nascent Soul Realm elders were instantly in an uproar, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

In fact, they had heard about the destruction of the "Secret Demon God Sect" before.

However, that was just a rumor. The person who destroyed the sect was an unknown demonic cultivator, and no one took the rumor to heart.

I just assumed it was someone exaggerating or bragging.

It should be noted that the "Secret Demon God Sect" is a super demonic sect with a long history and profound foundation, and its members are full of experts.

Even if several major sects joined forces to besiege him, they might not be able to destroy him, let alone one person.

But now that these words have come from Peng Shidao's mouth, they have no choice but to believe them.

Peng Shidao is the sect leader of the Demon Sun Divine Palace, a man of noble status, and would never deceive the public on such a matter.

"That 'Secret Demon God Sect,' was it really destroyed by Su Fan all by himself..." someone couldn't help but ask, their voice trembling slightly.

"Junior Brother Shidao, is this really true...? Or are you just deliberately praising Junior Brother Su Fan?"

"How is that possible... He alone could destroy a super demonic sect, Junior Brother Shido, you're exaggerating too much..."

"Since you put it that way, then tell us how he single-handedly destroyed the 'Secret Demon God Sect'..."

Those gathered here are all the most outstanding cultivators of the human race.

They came from various immortal sects and demonic sects, as well as some sword masters who were obsessed with battle; each of them was knowledgeable and experienced.

But at this moment, they were all shocked by Peng Shidao's words.

Faced with the persistent questions from the crowd, Peng Shidao smiled faintly and looked calm.

"I swear on my Dao heart that there is not a single lie in this matter. If you do not believe me, you can ask Senior Brother Wuyue and Junior Brother Jialuo. They both saw it with their own eyes..."

Upon hearing this, Wuyue God and Jialuo God immediately stepped forward and swore an oath with their Daoist hearts, earnestly proving that everything Peng Shidao said was true and without any exaggeration.

Seeing the three sect leaders of the Zheng Yuan Heaven testify together, some of the doubts in everyone's hearts dissipated. Even so, they still found the matter unbelievable and beyond their comprehension.

Just then, the sect leader of Hongshan Immortal Sect, Zhao Ri Shen Zun, also spoke up to add to the discussion.

"Fellow senior brothers, the strength of that Junior Brother Su Fan is indeed unfathomable. I don't know what kind of demonic cultivation technique he used, but he enslaved countless demon cultivators, who swept past our Hongshan Immortal Sect's gate in a mighty procession, their power terrifying..."

At this point, the Asahi God couldn't help but show emotion, his tone carrying a hint of lingering fear.

"That Junior Brother Su Fan merely glanced at our sect, and the overwhelming evil... uh, the overwhelming demonic energy was so oppressive that I could hardly breathe, and even my supernatural powers almost failed me..."

As soon as the Asahi God finished speaking, everyone was even more shocked and gasped.

It should be noted that the Sun God Venerable is a genuine late-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator with profound cultivation and deep foundation.

Yet, he was so easily suppressed by Su Fan, which shows just how terrifying Su Fan's strength had become.

"Rumble..."

Just as everyone was shocked and discussing, a deafening roar suddenly came from afar, shaking the heavens and earth.

As everyone looked up, they saw a towering pillar of blood plummeting from the clouds, standing upright between heaven and earth.

That towering pillar of blood was not the usual crimson red, but rather a deep, almost impenetrable, blackish-red.

It exudes a pungent stench of blood and an eerie demonic aura, and its appearance from afar is chilling.

The human cultivators gathered here, all of whom were seasoned veterans who had lived for countless years, recognized the method at a glance.

This is clearly the blood sacrifice technique commonly used by evil cultivators.

"This...this is a blood sacrifice. That brat Su Fan really is an evil cultivator..." someone couldn't help but exclaim, their tone full of solemnity.

Seeing this, Peng Shidao quickly spoke up to explain, "Senior brothers, please don't misunderstand. Junior Brother Su Fan is very knowledgeable and has a wide range of interests. This is just a blood-based supernatural power he cultivates as a supplement, not some evil cultivator's blood sacrifice technique..."

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but purse their lips and secretly grumble in their hearts.

This can actually be washed.

Such an obvious heretical blood sacrifice method, and you still call it auxiliary cultivation of the Blood Path Divine Power? Do you have any shame?

"There's no point in saying more. Let's go and see for ourselves..." A Nascent Soul cultivator frowned, glanced at the crowd, and said in a deep voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, he no longer hesitated and took the lead in activating his escape technique, disappearing from the spot in a flash.

The other many old monsters in the Integration Realm also calmed their minds and followed closely behind. One after another, streaks of light streaked across the sky, rushing towards the direction of the towering blood pillar in the distance like shooting stars chasing the moon.

Although the towering blood pillar was far away at the edge of the sky, tens of thousands of miles away, everyone present was a top-tier Integration Realm expert of the human race, and their escape speed was as fast as teleportation.

In just a few breaths, they arrived at the location of the blood pillar.

But when everyone stopped and stared intently, their doubts deepened.

The towering black and red pillar of blood that had shaken the heavens and earth and made people tremble had vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

Only the lingering, pungent smell of blood and eerie demonic energy in the air reminded everyone that what they had just witnessed was not an illusion.

As everyone looked up, a colossal tower, powerful enough to pierce the clouds, stood majestically between heaven and earth.

It was not a celestial tower built of bricks, stones, and jade tiles, but a "Jingguan White Bone Tower" made up of the bones of countless demon cultivators.

No one knows when this bone tower appeared. It seemed to rise from the ground the instant the blood pillar dissipated, carrying a terrifying aura of world destruction, which shocked every expert in the Integration Realm present.

Just as everyone was looking at each other in bewilderment, a terrifying force far surpassing the blood pillar swept in like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing the entire world.

This aura was icy and chilling, devoid of any vitality, containing only endless deathly silence and ferocity, like a cold current from the deepest hell, penetrating straight to everyone's heart.

Even a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Integration Realm couldn't help but stiffen, his expression instantly becoming extremely solemn. He subconsciously began to circulate his spiritual energy to resist the suffocating pressure.

At this moment, all the human beings who had arrived at this place were stunned by the giant white bone tower, their expressions frozen.

Even their breathing slowed down unconsciously, their eyes filled with disbelief and deep fear.

Even top experts who have lived for countless years and seen countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood could not suppress the turmoil in their hearts at this moment.

They had never seen such a terrifying, massive mound of corpses, nor had they ever experienced such pure stillness and ferocity.

Su Fan had no artistic talent whatsoever. This awe-inspiring Jingguan Bone Tower was simply a collection of demon bones he casually piled up, based on the pyramid design from his past life.

There were no intricate patterns or mysterious formations, only the most primal and brutal stillness and ferocity, which was more chilling than any immortal or demonic formation.

The "Jingguan White Bone Tower" was surrounded by a faint blackish-red mist. The mist was not the residual aura of the blood pillar, but rather the malevolent aura formed from the condensation of countless demon skeletons.

As the demonic energy slowly circulated, it exuded a chilling sense of oppression.

Even a powerful expert in the late stage of the Integration Realm would appear as insignificant as an ant standing before this bone tower, as if the tower could crush them into dust with the slightest movement.

The stench of blood and demonic energy in the air was extremely strong. Taking a breath made one feel a chill in their heart and soul, and the circulation of spiritual energy within their body became sluggish.

The white bone tower was tens of thousands of feet tall, piercing the clouds, its top hidden in the thick clouds, as if it were about to pierce through the heavens and earth.

The tower was constructed from the bones of countless demon cultivators, stacked together seamlessly without a single gap.

From the lowest level of ordinary demon soldiers to the high-level ninth-tier demon skeletons, they are layered and arranged in a staggered manner.

Each bone gleamed with a cold, grayish-white luster, its surface still bearing traces of undried dark red blood and dense demonic energy.

Some of the skeletons still bore gruesome wounds, while some heads retained the ferocity and resentment of their dying moments, their empty eye sockets staring straight at the sky, exuding a chilling stillness.

After a long while, a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Integration Realm slowly came to his senses, his voice trembling uncontrollably as he murmured softly.

"This... how many demons would have to be slaughtered to build such a colossal tower? Just what kind of monster is that kid...?"

Several weaker Nascent Soul cultivators even subconsciously took a half step back, their eyes filled with fear, their lips moving slightly, but they couldn't utter a complete sentence.

They had witnessed the ferocity of demon cultivators and the carnage of the battlefield, but they had never seen anyone pile up the bones of thousands of demons into such a terrifying giant tower.

This wasn't showing off; it was blatant crushing, an absolute mockery of all demon cultivators.
