Rat Da's two eyes spun rapidly in his pupils. He was very clever. Seeing that Sakra didn't seem to have the intention to kill him, he quickly climbed up the rope and said, "Black Tiger King, this little one is really willing to pledge allegiance to you. King, please give this little one a chance. No matter what the matter is, this little one will definitely handle it properly." While kowtowing, he expressed his loyalty.
How much of this loyalty was real? In fact, it was easy to guess with a little thought.
How could Sakra believe it so easily. He could almost see at a glance that Rat Boss was a kind of rat that was born to be timid. He was a rebellious seed that swayed with the wind. Loyalty was not an extravagant hope. Who knows, if he really met someone stronger than him in the future, he would easily betray him again.
He did not dare to say anything about the future, but right now, there was no place for him to trust. However, he did not have the intention to immediately accept his loyalty. This was impossible, and he did not expect it.
"Today, I will not only give you a chance, but also give you a great benefit. Let's see if you can grasp it. "Di Shitian said meaningfully.
"A great benefit?" Rat's big eyes lit up. He muttered to himself and hurriedly asked, "I wonder what my king is referring to …" As he spoke, he looked like he wanted to look but didn't dare to look at Sakra. He was very nervous.
"As long as you swear that from today on, you will be loyal to me and will never betray me, then I will let you be the king of countless rats underground. The original Rat King has already destroyed himself. As long as you agree, you will be the new Rat King from now on. However, I will say this first. As long as you agree, from now on, the rat race will be a member of my Myriad Demon Valley. If there is even the slightest bit of betrayal, don't blame me for being ruthless. The fate of the Rat King today will be your example in the future. "
Sakra's voice was low as he looked at Rat Big. His body naturally emitted a kind of majestic aura that was exerted on Rat Big. Every time he spat out a word, the majestic aura on his body would become stronger by a bit.
"My King, you want to …"
Bai Susu's eyes flashed with a strange light when she heard this. She muttered in her heart, vaguely guessing the king's thoughts.
However, the Southern Barbarian Lands was very big, and the Spiritual Qi was also very abundant. It was a rare place for cultivation. In the mountains, there were also most of the birds and beasts that had intelligence and spirituality. However, although the number of these spiritual beasts was not small, compared to the entire Southern Barbarian Lands, there was one here and one there, and they were very scattered. Thus, it appeared to be very sparse.
During this period of time, Di Shitian had been thinking about how to develop the Myriad Demon Valley. Although he was strong, he could not become a peerless master, a legendary Demon Saint, or a Demon God. If he relied on himself, he would be weak. After all, there was always something that could not be defeated. Developing his own forces and becoming strong together was the way to go.
Perhaps in the future, if the Myriad Demon Valley really developed, it would become a wind vane for the Demon Clan, encouraging the rise of the Demon Clan.
However, if he really wanted to develop a force from nothing, it was not as simple as talking about it. All kinds of problems and aspects needed to be considered one by one. It was like building a house. You couldn't say that you wanted two floors. If you didn't build the first floor, you would build the second floor directly. Could a building without the first floor last? It was just a castle in the air. It was always like a bubble.
Therefore, he had never thought that he could create something out of nothing and build a tall building from the ground. He taught Chi Huo, Baiyue, and the others the secret method of demon cultivation. He was building the foundation to brew the monkey wine, and he was not stingy to give it to the creatures in the valley to drink, increasing their chances of developing intelligence by several times. This was also a means.
So far, it had been effective. There were already four or five thousand spiritual beasts in the valley. As time went by, there would be more. However, this was not enough. The speed of development still did not satisfy him. On the contrary, there was a sense of urgency.
After being in the secular world for a while, although he did not get too involved in the cultivation world, he could still feel the foundation of the cultivation world. The Qin Family's groom search could easily attract so many young talents, and there was no lack of Core Formation cultivators. Perhaps, these were only some of the rogue cultivators and sects near the Qin Family.
But from this, it could be seen that there were countless powerhouses in the cultivation world. What was revealed in the major sects might only be on the surface. The hidden strength was probably not something that ordinary people could understand. Compared to the Demon Clan, the gap was like heaven and earth.
The Thousand Beasts Sect was a large sect. Could it be that they were as simple as they appeared to be?
It was impossible for an individual to reach the sky in a single step and become a peerless powerhouse, a Demon Saint, or a Demon Deity. Then, they had to work hard to develop their forces and use the deterrence of their forces to achieve their goals.
It was precisely because of this that he was also thinking of a plan. He was thinking of a way to set up a charter to completely unite the Demon Clan in the Myriad Demon Valley and twist them into a rope, effectively increasing the strength of all the demons.
The number of rats underground was huge and countless. The underground tunnels were almost all over the underground of the Southern Barbarian Lands. The tunnels dug out were like an underground kingdom. If he could subdue this group of rats, he could grasp the situation of the entire Southern Barbarian Lands with the rats' omnipresence. Rats had no other abilities, but they were first-class in gathering intelligence.
Moreover, this group of rats was large in number and could also allow them to find all kinds of spiritual medicines and items in various places. It was very convenient. Giving them up was a big loss, but subduing them was a big help. In this case, it was understandable why Di Shitian would say such words.
Rat Big's eyes rolled a few times, and he immediately vowed, "My King, this subordinate is willing to pledge allegiance to you and the Myriad Demon Valley. In the future, as long as you say the word, I will go east and south. I will do my best to help you, my King. "At this moment, how could he have the slightest thought of opposition? As long as he opposed, the result could be imagined.
"Whoosh!!"
However, right at the moment when Rat Big had a loyal appearance and was loudly speaking, a black light flashed past and directly entered Rat Big's mouth. Caught off guard, Rat Big swallowed it without the slightest bit of resistance.
"My King, you are …" Rat Big looked at Di Shitian in fear. That thing melted in his mouth and did not give him a chance to spit it out. Even if he could spit it out, he did not dare to.
"Don't worry, what I gave you is my unique poison — Seven Deadly Poison. After eating it, within a year, if you don't have my antidote, even if you become a Demon Beast, pass the Heavenly Tribulation, and transform into a Demon, you can't get rid of it. When the time is up, your intestines will immediately rot and you will die. As long as you are loyal to me, I will give you the antidote on time every year. If you are disloyal. The day of the poison is the day you die. Don't try to escape from the Southern Barbarian Lands. Otherwise, you will regret it. "Sakra glanced at him indifferently and said without a care in the world.
"If there is a day when I can prove your loyalty, I will naturally give you the antidote."
"Yes, my King. This subordinate will not dare to be disloyal." Rat Big hung his head dejectedly, but he still roused his spirits and expressed his loyalty without hesitation.
"Good. As for how to subdue the underground rats, I believe that with your strength, after the Rat King's death, there shouldn't be a problem. As long as you subdue the rats, you will be the new Rat King. When the time comes, you can go to the Myriad Demon Valley. "
After Sakra finished speaking, he no longer cared about anything else. He glanced at Shu Da indifferently and nodded towards Bai Susu. "Susu, let's go back."
With the Rat King dead, the original grievances had all disappeared. Once the underground rats were united, the Myriad Demon Valley would become even stronger. Furthermore, he obtained a mysterious yellow bead, which was a rare treasure. This underground trip could be said to be killing two birds with one stone. The harvest was quite rich.
The tunnel collapsed, but it was not a problem for Di Shitian. He forcibly made a passage from the underground. He rushed out and came to the surface. He did not stay long and returned to the Myriad Demon Valley. Zhu Niao was still waiting in the valley. The things that should be done were almost done. Di Shitian also wanted to see the mysterious woman in the Southern Barbarian.
He wanted to see what kind of person she was.
Putting these aside, in the Hundred Flowers Valley, flowers bloomed all year round. The climate in the valley was like spring all year round. The fragrance of hundreds of flowers was pleasant, and in the surroundings, there were tens of thousands of butterflies flying about. The colorful butterflies fluttered in the air, and it was a rare scene.
Of course, in the valley, not only were there flowers blooming, there were also all kinds of ancient trees. However, there were very few trees, and there were very few of them. However, the sparse ancient trees in the valley were abnormally thick and tall. For example, the house built by Sister Zhu Niao was built by relying on this ancient tree.
Not far from the house, there was an equally tall ancient tree. The trunk of the ancient tree was so thick that several adults might not be able to hug it. It was so thick that it was like a pillar supporting the sky.
The branches were vigorous and powerful. The branches and leaves were dense, fluttering in the wind and covering a large area. It looked like a thriving momentum. In the tree, there was a strong aura of life.
No one knew that this ancient tree looked no different from other ancient trees, but in the trunk of the ancient tree, there was a strange man standing in the tree. No, it could be said that he was integrated into the ancient tree. His eyes were slightly closed, and all the flesh and blood on his body were dry. Even his face was no exception. What could be seen was a horrible appearance of skin wrapped around bones, like the withered dead wood.
His aura was not revealed at all. He was dead silent, like a tree. The rise and fall of his heart would only beat once in a long time. The sound was inaudible. His body was integrated into the ancient tree. Even if someone was outside and used their divine consciousness to scan, they would not find anything unusual.
From the looks of it, this person should have cultivated some kind of mysterious cultivation method. What kind of effect would that produce?
If one were to look closely, one would notice that the person integrated into the ancient tree seemed to be absorbing the enormous aura of life contained in the ancient tree itself. After absorbing it into his body, the ancient tree appeared to be full of vitality, but in reality, the inside of the tree was already dried up. (To be continued.
