Wild Boar King spoke slowly, “You may not know this, but I was originally just an ordinary wild boar on Tianmu Mountain, generally friendly and never hurting humans. I gathered a group of little brothers, took over a cave, and lived a worry-free life. Gradually, I underwent transformation, but…”
His tone soon turned bitter and resentful, “Everything changed when a bunch of spiders arrived not long ago. Just a few months ago, these disgusting spiders brought with them a group of Bat Demons, formed a cave alliance, and called themselves Blackvvind Cave, causing quite a bit of trouble.”
“They took the best spot, and set a rule: only submissive demons could stay. Those who did not submit either became their food, or left. And I was one of those who chose to leave.”
“This injury of mine was caused by those demons who joined Blackwind Cave.” Wild Boar King stretched out his bloody arm, crying out in pain.
So, these herbs were for treating his injuries, including the swollen face pig that was beaten up when opening the door.
After listening to what Wild Boar King had said, Zhao Huai asked with suspicion:
“Is Tianmu Mountain really this sought after?”
there must be something extraordinary about it.
Wild Boar King sighed, “You may not know this. A hundred years ago, Tianmu Mountain was also known as Blackwind Mountain. This was where a great demon achieved his dao. Although the great demon died, the inheritance and daoist grounds he left behind remain. Whoever occupies it within Tianmu Mountain can greatly boost their demonic power and cultivation speed, making it comparable to the treasures of Heaven and Earth.”
“Originally, the inheritance was occupied by Tiger Demon King, but these disgusting spiders and Bat Demons, I don’t know where they got the power from, killed and ate the Tiger Demon King directly. They obviously want to imitate the great demon from one hundred years ago, to become the king of the mountain and directly challenge the sects.”
Wild Boar King snorted coldly, clearly not believing they could achieve this.
“Although Tianmu Mountain is vast, its resources are limited, and the demons occupying it are getting more and more. These disgusting spiders probably felt it was getting too crowded, so they drove people away.”
After hearing this, Zhao Huai seemed lost in thought.
It turned out that there was competition among the demons too. Either they fought over territories or food, most of them dared not venture into the human cities, so they fought among themselves and either died at the hands of the sects or due to internecine strife.
Come to think of it, wasn’t the true purpose of demons invading cities to occupy human territories?
Occupy a mountain was no longer enough; they had their sights set on the human world.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZhao Huai thought for a moment and said, “I remember our Immortal Yearning Sect cleared out Blackwind Cave once before. How did they resurface?”
Wild Boar King shook his head, “You can find a cave on Tianmu Mountain and call it Blackwind Cave; there are just too many caves on Tianmu Mountain.
Those spiders and Bat Demons are cunning. They never keep all their eggs in one basket. We even organized a resistance force once, but when we stormed in, we found it was a decoy.”
“What kind of cave is the real one?” Zhao Huai asked in a deep voice.
“The ones with the powerful demon inheritance is the real one.”
“What exactly is this so-called inheritance?” Zhao Huai became even more curious, as everyone was fighting tooth and nail for this inheritance, which was quite odd.
He glanced at Wild Boar King and gently smiled, “Although you have been driven away, you’re still quite prestigious as the king of this mountain.”
“Clang! ”
Upon hearing this, Wild Boar King knelt again, trembling and barely making a sound, “You are the true expert, not me. Up till now, I have not even fully transformed. How dare I call myself a king? Usually, I wouldn’t harm even a single human life. I would even help an old granny if I saw her pass by, for fear that the sect might come looking for me after a thorough search.”
Seeing his frightened expression, Zhao Huai was caught between laughter and tears.
“Just speak, don’t keep kneeling, okay? I’m not going to eat you.”
“You have nothing to worry about until I complete my task.”
“In that case, I’ll keep kneeling.”
Upon hearing the first half of the sentence, Wild Boar King was about to stand up. But after listening to the second half, he felt that kneeling was safer.
Kneeling brought peace of mind.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Huai left him be. “Do you demons also have different cultivation realms?”
This was a point he was quite curious about.
While humans had their own cultivation realms, what were those of the demons like?
“Of course, although not as complicated as you humans have, there are still several important stages.”
Wild Boar King immediately began to explain earnestly, “The first realm is refining demonic power. You must form demonic power within your body, and this process varies depending on the demon. Some find it easy, while others struggle.”
Zhao Huai glanced at the surrounding piglets and lightly chuckled, “Then, these little brothers of yours are all in the first realm.”
Wild Boar King scratched his head and laughed sheepishly.”The Second Realm is Transformation, which can make demonic power purer and richer, along with numerous benefits. The higher the degree of Transformation, the deeper the cultivation level.”
Zhao Huai nodded slightly; he had already heard about this.
“The Third Realm is Core Formation, and only those who have undergone Core Formation can be called a Demon King. Of course, many demons that own a cave also call themselves kings.”
“It sounds a lot like Golden Core.” Zhao Huai muttered. If this analogy was followed, the Second Realm could be regarded as the Initiation Stage of the human race, and the First Realm would be refining qi. “What realm do you think those spiders and bat demons you mentioned are
At this point, the more information they had, the better.
The Wild Boar King thought for a moment and said, “These outsiders are all quite strong. Most of them are in the First Realm, and there are quite a few in the Second Realm. Most importantly, it seems they have a Demon King who has formed a Core behind them.”
Demon King…
Zhao Huai pondered – the Blackwind Granny Lu Wanqiu had mentioned definitely had not reached the level of a Demon King, otherwise, she would not have personally eliminated her.
This meant that there was another demon involved.
The trip was indeed dangerous, and even if they reported it to the Immortal Yearning Sect, it would be difficult for the sect to eradicate them. It wouldn’t be easy to exterminate these demons since they had taken the territory advantage of the large mountain and could still hide.
Thinking of this, Zhao Huai couldn’t help but feel troubled.
If only he could infiltrate the enemy’s ranks, then targeted attacks would be effective.
Infiltrate the enemy…
Wait, he seemed to have a way!
The Wild Boar King, seeing the expert in front of him deep in thought, didn’t dare to disturb him. Instead, he whispered to a little wild boar on the side:
“Quickly serve tea and water to the expert!”
The pig demon immediately scrambled to fetch water; there was a water tank connected to an underground source.
“No need.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhao Huai waved his hand, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes as he took out a leather mask from the black ring.
These masks were part of the fox demon’s legacy, containing a variety of masks for humans, evil spirits, and demons.
Although the fox demon’s strength was average, it excelled in disguise and impersonation.
“Expert, what is this…” The Wild Boar King looked at the object Zhao Huai took out, unsure of his intentions.
Zhao Huai didn’t answer but directly took out a pigskin mask and put it on his face. He used his True Vigor to change his voice and said in an old tone:
“You tell me – do I still have a human aura?”
The Wild Boar King’s eyes widened in disbelief.
How had the human aura he’d sensed just a moment ago disappeared so quickly?
Not only that, but he found that the aura on the expert in front of him had become the unique scent of demons.
How bizarre!
Could it be that this expert was actually a demon?
Not only was the Wild Boar King shocked, but the surrounding pig demons also wore faces of astonishment. It was as if a living human had been replaced by a demon before their eyes – it was so amazing!
Seeing their reactions, Zhao Huai knew his disguise was successful.
Tricking the little demons should be no problem, but whether it’d work on the powerful demons remained to be seen.
“Come with me.”
Zhao Huai smiled at the Wild Boar King.
“Expert, where are we going?” The Wild Boar King asked cautiously.
“Tianmu Mountain.”
Zhao Huai replied indifferently.
