“Are you sure these demon beasts won’t attack me if I stand up right now?” Jared was still concerned because there were so many demon beasts eyeing him.
“I’m sure. Now, bring me to the spot marked on the treasure map!” Ranzoph urged. However, Jared was still too afraid to stand up. “You better not lie to me. If I’m eaten by these demon beasts, no one will take you there.”
“Relax! I won’t lie to you. Once you get up, I bet these demon beasts will shudder in fear.” Jared slowly rose to his feet. When the demon beasts saw that, they hastily took two steps backward, causing a commotion.
“See? Those creatures are terrified of you!” Ranzoph said. When Jared saw the fearful look in the demon beast’s eyes, his worries were laid to rest. He glanced at the giant lion not too far away from him and waved at it. “Come here.”
He wanted to see if the demon beasts would listen to his commands. The giant lion moved toward Jared like an obedient puppy. Jared was exhilarated. With so many demon beasts as my subordinates, I don’t need to be afraid of Wrey and those people from the hidden realm anymore! When he recalled their pursuit of him and how badly they had beaten him back then, rage consumed his heart.
“I will have my revenge!” He threw a punch, shattering a nearby rock into dust. The demon beasts trembled, thinking that he was going to make a move on them.
Jared stared at his fist, stunned. I didn’t expect my cultivation level to increase while I was unconscious! I think I’m now a Fourth Level Martial Arts God! In this case, I stand a chance against a Martial Arts Sovereign now! “It feels a little too easy for my cultivation level to increase.”
“It would’ve been more absurd if your cultivation level didn’t advance after your body absorbed the power from hundreds of demon beasts,” said Ranzoph.
Suddenly, Jared recalled what Ranzoph had told him earlier. He did mention Feenix had to absorb that much power to awaken me. Moreover, that energy combined with the Power of Dragons, thus removing the restriction of Heavenly Law. Even though Feenix only absorbed a small portion of strength from each demon beast, there are hundreds of them here. The power that was accumulated is not to be underestimated!
“With these demon beasts by my side, I don’t need to be scared of the people from the hidden realm anymore.” With that, Jared bolted down the mountain.
Hundreds of demon beasts followed behind him, generating dust storms in their wake. They toppled the trees blocking their paths, causing the mountain to shake.
Seeing that, Jared gestured for the demon beasts to stop. While traveling around with these demon beasts is awesome, it’s impossible for me to avoid detection like this. I have recovered my strength, and my cultivation level has been elevated. Even if I encounter those from the hidden realm, I can battle against them. If that doesn’t work out, I’m at least capable of escaping from them easily. I don’t need the demon beasts to follow me for now.
“You’re all free to leave! I’ll summon you when I need you again!” As soon as he ended his sentence, the demon beasts scattered in all directions.
Once they had left, Jared continued his journey down the mountain. I’ll help this old guy locate the spot marked on the map first before taking my revenge. The giant lion brought me far away from that area. I need to increase my pace.
