Chapter 3001: What Smell Is So Fragrant?

I just heard them say, this demon race is excellent material, Old Ancestor, the people here eat demons!

Upon hearing the words of the leading woman, the two Old Ancestors were stunned.

Having lived so many years, I consider myself well-informed, but I have never heard of such a thing!

Humans even eat demons! Can that stuff be eaten? You say using it to refine magical artifacts is fine, but eating it directly is unheard of.

For a moment, the two Old Ancestors fell into silence; the humans here are completely different from what we imagined!

First of all, they, who are originally Post-Heaven Human Race, show no fear at all.

When Post-Heaven faces Pre-Heaven, it should be a suppression from the bloodline level.

But in the end, when the humans here saw them, they showed not a trace of fear.

This is not a pretense; these humans are genuinely unafraid.

Second, it's those two Pre-Heaven races we've never seen before.

You know, Pre-Heaven and Post-Heaven should originally be like two parallel lines that never intersect.

Even in their own territory, Pre-Heaven and Post-Heaven races would not have much interaction.

If there is any, it would only be a dependent relationship.

But those two unseen Pre-Heaven races and the humans here are obviously not like that; no matter how you look at it, it doesn't resemble a dependent relationship.

The two Pre-Heaven races and one Post-Heaven Human Race mixed together, and their relationship is actually quite good, very good—don't you think that's strange?

Finally, it's the humans here—they dare to eat demons; this is simply outrageous.

Thinking of this, the two Old Ancestors began to wonder if that old fogey Heavenly Secrets had made a mistake.

This place is strange in every way, revealing oddness from any angle.

Is this their land of vitality?

But the problem is, Heavenly Secrets Old Ancestor has never made a mistake in his lifetime.

Before, he calculated that their Pre-Heaven Human Race would face a great calamity they couldn't avoid, and isn't this the fulfillment?

Unfortunately, Heavenly Secrets Old Ancestor is now gone, so even if we wanted to ask, there's nowhere to go.

After a long silence, the two Old Ancestors couldn't figure it out, so they simply stopped trying.

Let's first take care of the present matters.

Although everyone has temporarily avoided a calamity for now, the danger has not passed.

Moreover, the current problem is whether to stay or seek another place to settle.

Looking at the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens not far away, the two Old Ancestors were at a loss for a moment.

If we want to settle here, we definitely need their consent.

As for directly storming in, that's completely unrealistic.

The two Pre-Heaven races inside the city are not something they can handle.

Moreover, after fleeing all this way, everyone truly has no fighting spirit left.

All we can do is pray that they will take us in.

But the problem is, the people here are not right; who knows if staying will be good or bad?

But if we leave, where could we possibly go in the end?

In this vast world, it now seems there is literally no place for people like them to take refuge.

Just then, the two of them strode away, their faces grim.

"Old Ancestor, nine star ships are completely broken, beyond repair."

Upon hearing this, the two Old Ancestors' faces grew even grimmer.

With the nine star ships gone, they cannot leave even if they wanted to.

Their gaze finally fell on the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens not far off, and one Old Ancestor muttered softly.

"Could it be that Heavenly Secrets that old fogey actually got it right?"

But how are we supposed to enter the city now? They have no intention of dealing with us.

For now, the lives of these Pre-Heaven Human Race are preserved, but because the star ships are damaged, they cannot leave.

It seems just as Heavenly Secrets Old Ancestor said—they are trapped here.

Gazing at the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens not far off, the two Old Ancestors secretly pondered how to enter the city.

However, it seems they have no such intention at all.

After clearing the demon race materials from the battlefield, the Barbarian God Tribe, Feather God Tribe, and humans alike directly returned to the city.

Immediately after, they closed the city gate, showing no intention of entertaining us.

They seem to have no intention of taking us in; for a moment, there really is no way to enter the city.

As for storming in by force, these Pre-Heaven Human Race haven't even considered it.

They have seen the strength of the Barbarian God Tribe and Feather God Tribe just now.

Especially, the other side has as many as seven individuals at Old Ancestor level.

If they were at their peak, the Pre-Heaven Human Race would not fear a battle.

But the problem is, under these circumstances, unless they seek death, anyone can tell that right now they simply cannot engage head-on.

They can't leave, they can't fight head-on, so all they can do is beg the other side to take them in.

The two Old Ancestors pondered for a moment, then arranged for everyone to repair the star ships—fix what could be fixed, and take along anything useful.

As for themselves, they headed toward the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens.

Thinking to first make contact with the people inside the city, to see if there's a chance to speak further.

This time, although the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens still has Heavenly Palace experts guarding it, many people are stationed on the walls.

However, the formation has not been activated.

It's quite obvious that defenses against these Primordial Human Race have lessened a lot, to the point that even formations are no longer needed.

In that recent battle, they were beaten so badly that it's obvious these Primordial Human Race now pose no threat at all.

Naturally, there's no need to fully activate the formation; after all it's quite costly, so why waste money when it's unnecessary?

The two Primordial Human Race elders also guessed this; although they felt somewhat uneasy inside, they dared not show it.

All the way to the outskirts of the city, one of the elders was about to speak when his nose twitched suddenly, and he sniffed hard.

Instantly, a rich fragrance rushed straight to his nostrils.

"What smell is this, so fragrant?"

Just smelling this fragrance made him involuntarily swallow his saliva; the scent was simply too tempting.

It made people unable to resist moving their index fingers.

He hadn't even had a chance to speak before this fragrance interrupted his train of thought.

In fact, not only them, but even the Heavenly Palace experts guarding the city walls were suffering immensely right now.

They had smelled the fragrance even earlier, and it was only growing stronger.

Even if one tried to ignore it on purpose, it would be useless; it simply rushes unreasonably into your nose.

It was almost enough to make everyone dazed by the fragrance.

Among them, some Heavenly Palace experts couldn't help but voice their complaints.

"How can this Primordial Demon Race smell so fragrant? You can smell it here, it wasn't like this before—I'm up on the city walls and I can still smell it!"

In response, his companion beside him replied helplessly.

"What do you think? This is a legendary-grade ingredient; you think ordinary demons can compare? I reckon not just here, but probably the whole Immortal City is dazed by the fragrance."

"What should we do? I want to eat it; just smelling it isn't satisfying enough."
