Upon hearing Boar King’s explanation, Zhao Huai walked towards the previous direction.
The depth of the cave was damp and dark.
Zhao Huai stood by the pool, examining it carefully.
The seal of the Three Thousand Thunderbolt Technique was still in place, with intricate talisman patterns suppressing the bloody pool. However, the flowing blood beads seemed to have a tendency to break through the seal and kept bubbling out.
“I call these blood beads that overflow from the pool ‘essence and blood.’ From time to time, I reward outstanding monsters or help ordinary demons gain intelligence. However, the amount of essence and blood is limited. I only use a tiny portion, and most of it is absorbed by me,” Boar King said cautiously.
Although this blood pool is of little use to the human race, it is undeniably valuable for the Demon Race.
It could not only greatly increase the cultivation speed of demons but also speed up the transformation process.
Zhao Huai stared at the blood pool, lost in thought.
He obviously didn’t expect that this remaining blood pool still had such tremendous energy. Would releasing the mysterious heart cause even more miraculous effects?
Upon contemplating, he gazed at Boar King and said profoundly, “Your strength has already reached the peak of the Second Realm with the help of this bloody pool, even though it has been weakened. If the pool were in its original state, you might be able to break through to the Demon King level — the next phase – after a few years of cultivation.”
“Senior, are you saying that I can cultivate to the Third Realm and reach the Core Formation stage?!”
Boar King, a fierce and muscular man, had an unexpectedly simple and honest expression on his face, full of astonishment.
Being acknowledged by Zhao Huai, he never imagined that he could one day have the opportunity to step into Core Formation and become a Demon King!
It was something he didn’t dare to think about before.
Zhao Huai pondered, and an idea emerged in his mind.
This blood pool and the heart have such mysterious origins that they may be able to continuously cultivate Demon Kings.
He could utterly raise a Demon Army under his command.
However, undoubtedly, such behavior would not be permitted by the sect.
In the eyes of most sects, humans and demons are incompatible, and this notion has become deeply ingrained.
Deciding how to deal with Blackwind Mountain became a matter of debate.
Seeing Zhao Huai’s uncertain expression, Boar King sensed something wrong and hurriedly said:
“Senior, rest assured. During your absence, I didn’t harm any humans nearby!
On the contrary, I’ve been attacking the surrounding demon forces, such as Snake Coiling Mountain next door. Those guys are the real tumors—robbing passing merchant convoys of Money and Treasure is one thing, but they also kill and eat people.
Don’t be fooled by the treasures in my cave. They were all seized while clearing out bandits and expanding our territory. Many human bandits tried to settle in Blackvvind Mountain but were all driven away by me.”
Boar King was undoubtedly afraid of Zhao Huai’s tactics, but he was even more afraid that the sect would come knocking on his door.
Provoking the sect’s retaliation out of temporary greed would be unwise. He had learned this lesson when he first became a demon.
At least his strength wasn’t enough to contend with the sect.
Even though the sect’s attention wasn’t currently on demons, it was better not to touch risky matters.
“Snake Coiling Mountain?”
Zhao Huai was puzzled by the name.
“Yes, Snake Coiling Mountain is occupied by a group of snake-nest demons led by Water Snake King, who is as powerful as I am, but their numbers far exceed mine because they reproduce so quickly.”
Zhao Huai nodded, then asked, “You just said that you have been eradicating other demon forces. With only those little demons?”
Boar King scratched his head sheepishly: “I relied more on my cousin’s reputation.”
“What do you mean?”
Zhao Huai didn’t catch it right away.
“The notoriety of Boar Zhu Ganglie had spread out, so those demons didn’t dare to intrude on Blackvvind Mountain.”
Boar King chuckled.
Hearing this, Zhao Huai finally understood and couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.
Who would have thought that the name they had casually made up back then would have such an effect?
Boar King was making use of his name to play the fox posing as a tiger.
And it worked so well?
“Powerful demons have all stayed away from this area. Apart from the escaping demons, Blackwind Mountain has also recruited many little demons.”
Zhao Huai chuckled at that. Boar King had turned Blackwind Mountain into an orphanage.
The strong disdained to come; the commoners didn’t dare to come, so they kept recruiting weak demons.
A mountain without tigers allows the monkeys to be kings.
This saying must refer to this situation, right?
From this perspective, the existence of Blackwind Mountain, at some level, was actually beneficial for the human race. It was really strange. “So there are no longer any Demon Kings within a hundred miles?” Zhao Huai asked further.
“There used to be, but I don’t know why they all ran away. Now, the only powerful ones around here are me and the Snake King of the neighboring mountain,” Boar King recalled.
Having heard Boar King’s explanation,
Zhao Huai thought for a long time before making a decision.
He temporarily decided to give Blackwind Mountain a chance to live.
From Boar King’s point of view, the existence of Blackwind Mountain was more significant than its demise.
If Blackwind Mountain were gone, the order among demons would be in disarray, which would be terrible.
Of course, Boar King’s words’ authenticity needed to be verified.
Zhao Huai waved his hand, and the seals covering the blood pool dispersed all at once..
