Killing God - Chapter 254
Chapter 254 Beast King
Hundreds of millions of living beings in the Primordial Chaos Realms reported their beauty to the heavens and earth, showing the miraculous and magnificent mysterious scenery of good fortune, often causing people to be amazed and respected. Among these countless creatures, the demonic beasts were one of them.
Unlike ordinary wild beasts, demonic beasts were vaguely related in appearance and bloodline to ordinary wild beasts. However, compared to ordinary wild beasts, demonic beasts far surpassed those distant relatives with thin bloodlines in terms of size, strength, agility, and even intelligence.
Today, no one knew how demonic beasts appeared in the Primordial Chaos World. It seemed that demonic beasts had spread throughout the Primordial Chaos Realms since the history of the human race. In other words, perhaps the history of demonic beasts in the Primordial Chaos Realms was not later or even earlier than that of humans.
For many years, many wise men in the human race had guessed the origins of demonic beasts. Especially when it came to the obvious similarities between demonic beasts and ordinary wild beasts, they had suggested that it might be due to some reason that ordinary wild beasts had mutated into various types of demonic beasts. However, their guesses were after all speculations, and it was difficult to find any evidence now.
Ever since the ancient times, demonic beasts had always been weak enemies of the human race. Over the years, countless people had died under the fierce and cruel kisses of demonic beasts. It was only in these ten thousand years that human cultivation flourished, and cultivators sprang up like bamboo shoots after a rain, gradually ruling over most of the Primordial Chaos World. Only then did they gradually suppress the rampage of demonic beasts.
However, there were many types of demonic beasts and there were a large number of them. Even cultivators with successful cultivation couldn’t be said to have an advantage over any demonic beast. Some low-grade demonic beasts were easy to say, but their strength was only slightly more ferocious. However, if a demonic beast’s grade was above Third Grade, it would be another level.
A Third Grade demonic beast already had a high chance of condensing a demonic core, while a Fourth Grade demonic beast would definitely condense a demonic core. When a demonic beast reached this realm, its intelligence would also be activated. It was fierce, cunning, and extremely difficult to deal with. Often, it would require a Divine Concept cultivator within the human race to suppress it. Of course, there were also demonic beasts above Tier 4. However, the number of demonic beasts at this level was also rare. Only occasionally, they would see them. However, once they appeared, they would definitely become the king of all beasts. There were even rumors that there were still some ancient exotic beasts hiding in the remote aerial jedi in some foreign wilderness lands. Their ferocious magic power was overwhelming, and they could even directly contend against human Origin Core Realm cultivators.
Compared to these incomparably ferocious demonic beasts and even the legendary ancient exotic beasts, they were now more common in the Primordial Chaos Realms. In fact, they were ordinary First and Second Order demonic beasts. These ordinary low-tier demonic beasts had the lowest status in the demonic beast community. Although they possessed powerful bodies, when facing higher-tier demonic beasts, they would often be killed and eaten as prey for higher-tier demonic beasts.
Therefore, most of the time, many of the low-grade demonic beasts were famous for their rapid reproduction. After all, there weren’t enough species born fast enough, and most of the species had been captured and killed in the past long years. Amongst the large number of low-tier demonic beasts, pig-type demonic beasts were very typical and common.
Pig-type demonic beasts were everywhere in the Primordial Chaos. Their silhouettes could be seen in almost all worlds. Moreover, this type of demonic beast had extremely strong adaptability. It could survive in almost all terrain. The shadows of pig-type demonic beasts could be seen in forests, swamps, grasslands, high mountains, lakes, islands, and even the sea.
Most of the pig-type demonic beasts weren’t high-grade, and most of them were the lowest-grade first-grade demonic beasts. They occasionally encountered second-grade demonic beasts, but their numbers were extremely small. They were spread throughout the Primordial Chaos Realms, and because of their different living environments, their physique and abilities gradually changed. However, the only thing they shared was that pig-type demonic beasts were almost always able to survive regardless of which type of demonic beast they were.
That was why in the distant Heavenly Yao Royal Court, the once lofty demon races had unceremoniously ridiculed the humans who were still weak and weak at that time as pig-like races.
Within the Haizhou Mountain Range, there were many demonic beasts living in this vast and boundless forest. Because there were few people in the past, everything in this old forest was very primitive. All sorts of demonic beasts lived here in an orderly manner. The strong preyed on the weak every day. Everything was natural.
In this food chain, The pig-type demonic beasts were undoubtedly at the bottom of the lowest floor, Not only could a ferocious Third Grade demonic beast like the Dark King Tiger hunt them, there were even more dangerous demonic beast hunters in the mountains of the forest who treated them as an important part of their recipes. The only thing the pig demonic beasts could do was barely resist, and they would instinctively desperately give birth to their cubs to continue the growth and development of their race.
The days were always like this. Day after day, they passed peacefully. Until one day, a little black pig stepped into this forest.

In the mountains and forests, pig-type demonic beasts weren’t just grey earth pigs. There were a total of three types of pig-type demonic beasts living in the Gaoling Mountain Range. Apart from grey earth pigs, there were also two types of fire-striped pigs and mountain pigs. These three pig demons were quite different in appearance, but they were roughly the same type. The fire-striped pig had a special texture, while the mountain pig was smaller but more agile.
Normally, these three kinds of pig demons would never interact with each other. If they met by chance in the forest, they might even fight. However, on this day, for some reason, the thousands of pig demons living on the nearby mountains gathered here from all directions. They roared and lowered their heads towards the black pig on the top of the mountain.
It was on this day that the calm that had lasted for countless tens of thousands of years in the mountains and forests of the Alpine Mountains was shattered just like that.
The wild boars rebelled!
When the little black pig jumped off the boulder and charged forward, hundreds of wild boars screamed and chased after the black figure, forming an unstoppable flood.
The forest trembled, and all the beasts were horrified.
The earth-shattering roars of beasts rose and fell in this mountain forest with an unbelievable frequency. They roared and then wailed in despair. The bloody light dyed countless leaves and thorns red, and then quickly drowned under the iron hooves of the wild boars that surged past.
The wild boar was roaring!
Wang Hu fell, The Rushing Thunder Leopard fell, and the Giant Black Horned Bear also fell. All of the previous Mountain Forest Hegemons and high-tier demonic beasts fell under the hooves of pigs one by one. Even a ferocious King of Raptors like the Jade Scaled Condor cried out in alarm and flew away in panic. He flapped his wings and flew over seven or eight mountains in succession, avoiding the incomparably crazy herd of pigs in this day.
Fresh blood soaked every mountain peak. There were those high-grade demonic beasts who died in grief, as well as many pig demons who frantically fought and died in the process.
However, as the day slowly passed and evening approached, the moment the light dissipated and darkness descended, the mountains and forests were silent. All the demonic beasts crawled silently and trembled in fear in the shadows of darkness. This forest already belonged to the wild boars and demonic beasts.
Mingyue quietly ascended to the heavens. The moonlight was as cold as water, sprinkling onto the world, as if it had covered this mountain forest with a layer of silver clothes.
In the darkness, in the shadows, countless pig demons gathered here, looking up at the summit of the mountain.
There was a black pig with wounds and blood stains on its body. However, its fangs were bright and its body was upright. Under it, hundreds of pig demons were silent, like unyielding warriors, like wild and unruly beasts.
Suddenly, the black pig looked up at the sky and roared at the bright moon.
The bright moon shone brightly and brilliance shone down on its figure. A moment later, countless pig demons raised their heads and roared. Their roars were like a flood bell that shook the heavens and earth, echoing majestically and melodiously among the mountains.
The forest was silent, and all the beasts were lowered.
On this day, this night, a black pig ascended to the top of the mountains under the bright and cold moonlight and became king!

Lingxiao Sect, Jinhong Mountain.
After paying out more than half of the spirit crystals he had obtained this time, Shen Shi swore that he would not spread any Dao spells according to the rules of the sect. He exchanged three Tier 2 spells from the hall, namely, Heavenly Lightning Strike, Wild Flame Spell, and a rather unpopular Wind Riding Spell. In the following days, Shen Shi spent almost all of his energy on cultivation.
As far as he was concerned, Actually, Shen Shi really wished to go to Gaoling Mountain to look for Xiao Hei immediately after he recovered from his injuries. However, when he thought of the situation where he and Blackie were surrounded by countless ghosts under Soul Suppressing Abyss that day, Shen Shi gritted his teeth and suppressed the impulse in his heart. He warned himself that if he could not improve his strength, what would happen if he went over to find Blackie and encountered ghosts again?
He lived in seclusion for almost all of his time in his immortal cave. Apart from the daily routine of channeling spirit into his body twice, he spent the rest of his time immersed in three Tier 2 spells. Compared to the rank 1 and rank 5 spells he had cultivated in the past, the three rank 2 spells this time had risen by one level, and the difficulty of cultivating had indeed doubled.
The Five Elements Technique had been criticized for its difficulty and complexity for so many years, In fact, even a normal cultivator who had reached the Origin Condensation Realm would need to spend a lot of energy to cultivate the Five Elements Technique. However, the power of the technique he obtained was not as powerful as that of ordinary Dao Techniques. It was precisely because of this that the Five Elements Technique was gradually weakening to this state.
However, Shen Shi was different. Because he had a secret that no one else knew except himself, That was because he had privately cultivated the Yin Yang Curse, a secret technique that was inextricably linked to the Supreme Demon Emperor’s bloodline. Although it was not a complete cultivation technique, he had only cultivated two of the curses, the Heart Cleansing Curse and the Heavenly Underworld Curse, which had already caused Shen Shi’s cultivation of the Five Elements Technique to exceed that of ordinary people in terms of speed and effectiveness.
A normal person would need a lot of effort to cultivate such a Tier 2 spell. Normally, it would take at least three months to cultivate a spell. However, under Shen Shi’s full strength and even a little crazy, he cultivated Heavenly Lightning Strike on the 15th day. On the twentieth day, he completed the Berserk Flame Technique. In contrast, the Wood Wind Riding Technique, which seemed to be much more useless than the previous two techniques, was actually the most difficult technique to cultivate. Shen Shi had been cultivating for a month before he was able to master this technique.
Afterwards, Shen Shi went to Xu Yanzhi and pleaded, After imprinting the runes of the three spells on her side, With his uninterrupted daily drawing of talismans for more than ten years, he quickly mastered the three talismans in about ten days. He made the thirty green talismans into the talismans of the three spells. In the process, he only lost three green talismans. The success rate was astonishingly high.
Thus, on the forty-second day after he returned to the mountain, Shen Shi could no longer endure the anxiety in his heart. He packed his luggage and prepared to go down the mountain, preparing to head towards the mysterious mountain range again.
