Chapter 252 – Grand Accomplishment Mid-Stage, War-Torn Hundred Thousand Mountains! (First Update, Seeking Monthly Votes)

Su Xing nodded slightly at what he saw.

“In the previous simulation, Tiger Immortal died in the fiftieth year, and Tiger Immortal Fortress was destroyed shortly after…”

“In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, where Demon Kings roam freely, without Human Immortal Realm cultivation, it would be nearly impossible to protect oneself…”

“Tiger Immortal Fortress has so many demon cultivators, territory, and abundant resources… Without Tiger Immortal, an Earthly Immortal realm demon cultivator, holding down the fort, there’s no way it could be defended!”

Su Xing let out a soft sigh.

In short, it all came down to one thing: as long as Tiger Immortal lived, Tiger Immortal Fortress would be safe.

If Tiger Immortal fell in battle, even though Tiger Immortal Fortress had hundreds of Tribulation Crossing demon cultivators and countless Body Integration and Mahayana stage demon cultivators, without a top-tier combat force, they were nothing but small fry…

Following this line of thought, Su Xing murmured:

“And right now it’s already the twenty-fourth year of the simulation. There’s less than twenty-six years before Tiger Immortal Fortress is destroyed…”

“If I want to extend my simulation time, there are only two methods.”

“First, find a way to escape Tiger Immortal Fortress, flee into the Hundred Thousand Mountains, traverse them, and reach Azure Cloud Sect territory…”

“Second, help Tiger Immortal defend Tiger Immortal Fortress. As long as Tiger Immortal doesn’t fall, I can simulate for several more decades and advance my cultivation further!”

Su Xing furrowed his brow slightly, carefully weighing the pros and cons of each option.

Escaping Tiger Immortal Fortress offered a certain chance of reaching Azure Cloud Sect territory.

But the Hundred Thousand Mountains were extremely dangerous, and Su Xing’s Grand Accomplishment strength might not be enough to traverse the region.

Moreover, there were dozens of Earthly Immortal realm Demon Kings in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, even more Human Immortal realm demon generals… and even Heavenly Immortal realm great demons.

Other demon cultivators might not be as agreeable as Tiger Immortal. If they captured Su Xing, his chances of survival would be slim.

Even if he survived by sheer luck, his cultivation would likely be sealed, and he’d be reduced to a tool for farming and pill refining — a fate worse than death…

Su Xing sighed softly. His seemingly comfortable life in the Hundred Thousand Mountains was only because Tiger Immortal was protecting him.

In reality, danger lurked everywhere! The world of demon cultivators was far more brutal than the human race’s!

“But would helping Tiger Immortal Fortress even be feasible?”

“Tiger Immortal’s territory sits at the center of four other Demon Kings, surrounded on all sides — it’s nearly impossible to hold for long…”

“And among the surrounding Demon Kings, Tiger Immortal’s strength isn’t particularly outstanding. If he wants to avoid death, his only options are to relocate… or befriend other Demon Kings!”

Su Xing pondered briefly, then dismissed the idea of relocation.

Though Tiger Immortal Fortress was surrounded on all sides, its spirit vein was impressive, and Tiger Immortal’s cave dwelling was nearly at the level of a blessed land. He surely wouldn’t relocate easily.

“Then the only path remaining is to befriend other Demon Kings…”

Su Xing raised an eyebrow. There had to be a reason Tiger Immortal was on bad terms with the surrounding Demon Kings.

If Su Xing could ease relations between Tiger Immortal and some of the Demon Kings, perhaps he could extend Tiger Immortal Fortress’s survival…

With this thought, Su Xing turned his gaze to the simulation panel.

【Your status in Tiger Immortal Fortress has noticeably risen, putting you more at ease as you begin preparing to break through to Grand Accomplishment Third Layer!】

【Before attempting the breakthrough, you harvest all your Spirit-Gathering Flowers, knowing that once you enter seclusion, you won’t have time to tend them.】

【This year, you formally attempt to break through to Grand Accomplishment Third Layer!】

【A year slowly passes…】

【Year Twenty-Six: Your Body Tempering cultivation successfully advances to Grand Accomplishment Third Layer!】

【The essence of that demon cultivator who was close to the Human Immortal realm provided you with tremendous help!】

【At the same time, you increasingly appreciate the formidable power of the Heaven Devourer talent.】

【Without this talent, your cultivation would likely have only just broken through to Grand Accomplishment Second Layer.】

【Year Twenty-Seven: You replant Spirit-Gathering Flowers and spend more time each day improving your physical cultivation.】

【Three years pass in this manner.】

【Year Thirty: A new batch of Spirit-Gathering Flowers is successfully harvested, and your cultivation has advanced to mid Grand Accomplishment Third Layer.】

【Based on your observations, conflicts between Demon Kings have grown increasingly frequent over these three years.】

【Human Immortal realm demon generals have even begun to fall in battle…】

【During this time, you also proposed several strategies to Tiger Immortal, but he dismissed them with contempt.】

【In the world of demon cultivators, strength reigns supreme. They rarely care about strategy or tactics — they only seek to clash head-on.】

【Furthermore, Tiger Immortal has a blunt and explosive temper, making him even less inclined to adopt stratagems. He simply told you to focus on growing Spirit-Gathering Flowers, promising generous rewards in due time!】

【You feel somewhat helpless about this, but there’s nothing more you can say.】

【In the blink of an eye, another three years pass.】

【Year Thirty-Three: Your cultivation remains at mid Grand Accomplishment Third Layer.】

【You’ve kept each planting cycle to around five hundred Spirit-Gathering Flowers, with each batch maturing in three years. Planting any more would interfere with your cultivation progress.】

【This year, a major event occurs in Tiger Immortal Fortress.】

【Tiger Immortal and the Bear Demon King to the south go to war over a spirit spring, their forces locked in fierce combat.】

【But just as the battle reaches a stalemate, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King from the east seizes the opportunity to launch a sneak attack from the rear. Tiger Immortal loses a late-stage Human Immortal realm demon general, and his forces are severely weakened!】

【Upon hearing this, Tiger Immortal flies into a rage and declares war on Gold Coin Leopard Demon King as well — only to be caught in a two-front war and forced to retreat with injuries…】

【Of the tens of thousands of Body Integration stage and above demon cultivators who marched to war, more than half perish. Tiger Immortal Fortress’s strength is drastically reduced.】

【The loss of core fighting strength isn’t even the most critical issue!】

【What matters most is that Tiger Immortal’s injuries are severe. For the next decade, his combat power likely won’t return to its Peak — he’ll only be comparable to an early Earthly Immortal.】

【Under these circumstances, Tiger Immortal’s territory will inevitably be nibbled away piece by piece. Defending the vast Tiger Immortal Fortress itself will be difficult enough.】

【The atmosphere in Tiger Immortal Fortress becomes extremely tense. Some demon cultivators look for opportunities to defect to other Demon Kings, while Tiger Immortal’s loyal followers walk around with worried frowns.】

【Tiger Immortal himself becomes withdrawn and short-tempered, lashing out at his subordinates at the slightest provocation.】

【At this critical juncture, not a single demon cultivator dares to cross Tiger Immortal.】

【Amid this delicate situation, a year passes…】

【Year Thirty-Four: Tiger Immortal’s territory is further eroded, shrinking from its original ten thousand li spanning north to south to a mere nine thousand li.】

【Many resources and demon cultivators have been absorbed by other Demon Kings.】

【This year, you decide to take a risk and offer counsel to Tiger Immortal, urging him to befriend some of the other Demon Kings.】

【Otherwise, in a few more years, as Tiger Immortal Fortress’s strength continues to decline, even the cleverest strategies will be useless against an overwhelming power gap.】

【On this day, you present two hundred and fifty Spirit-Gathering Flowers to Tiger Immortal. Seeing that this year’s harvest has increased, Tiger Immortal’s mood improves slightly, and he asks what reward you desire.】

【You seize the opportunity to offer your counsel, explaining that Tiger Immortal Fortress’s situation has been dire in recent years, and suggesting that Tiger Immortal make peace with Gold Coin Leopard Demon King.】

【Upon hearing this, Tiger Immortal’s tiger eyes go wide, staring at you fixedly. Clearly, in this fierce tiger’s mind, there is no such thing as surrender or concession…】

【But you remain calm, confident that Tiger Immortal craves the Spirit-Gathering Flowers too much to harm you over this.】

【Sure enough, just as you predicted, though Tiger Immortal is furious, he doesn’t lose his reason. He merely scolds you briefly, rewards you with a hundred thousand spirit stones, and dismisses you.】

【But you stubbornly refuse to leave, because you’re over ninety percent certain you can mend relations between Tiger Immortal and Gold Coin Leopard Demon King.】

【If relations are restored, Tiger Immortal Fortress’s eastern border will be secure — they might even gain an ally, and the situation would stabilize!】

【So you linger in Tiger Immortal’s hall, and Tiger Immortal can do nothing about it. He simply stares at you with his fist-sized tiger eyes.】

【Finally, Tiger Immortal dismisses all his subordinates, saying he wants to speak with you privately.】

【Once you’re alone together, Tiger Immortal bares his heart to you.】

【It turns out that over a thousand years ago, Tiger Immortal and Gold Coin Leopard once served together under a Heavenly Immortal realm great demon. They were like brothers, spending thousands of years side by side.】

【Later, when the great Heavenly Immortal demon perished, Tiger Immortal and Gold Coin Leopard Demon King established their own domains and formed an alliance, hoping to carve out a legacy together.】

【But during a great battle, a mistake by Tiger Immortal led to the deaths of all three of Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s children — one son and two daughters. Gold Coin Leopard Demon King was left without any heirs!】

【As it happens, apart from certain special demon races, most demon cultivators already have great difficulty producing offspring. Those who have cultivated to the Immortal realm find it nearly impossible to sire children.】

【In the centuries that followed, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King never produced another heir. The vast Gold Coin Fortress had no successor.】

【It was precisely because of this that Gold Coin Leopard Demon King and Tiger Immortal had a complete falling out. Tiger Immortal had tried to make amends multiple times, only to be rebuffed every time.】

【After hearing Tiger Immortal’s words, you smile slightly, because you’ve long since learned about the feud between the two Demon Kings.】

【And it is precisely because of this that you’re over ninety percent certain you can reconcile them.】

In the Real World, Su Xing couldn’t help but laugh out loud at what he saw.

“An Earthly Immortal realm Demon King who can’t produce heirs… Isn’t this right in my area of expertise!?”

Su Xing clearly remembered that from his talent pool, he had once drawn a talent called Blessed with Descendants!

This talent had no other use — it simply massively increased fertility!

With this talent, forget Demon Kings — even a True Immortal great demon would have to produce offspring for him!

“So, as long as I use the Gift of Roses talent to bestow Blessed with Descendants upon Gold Coin Leopard Demon King… not only will the feud between the two sides be resolved, but Gold Coin Leopard Demon King will even owe me a karmic debt!”

“And my position in Tiger Immortal Fortress will become even more secure!”

Su Xing nodded slightly. Now he understood why his simulated self had been so confident about resolving the feud.

“If the feud can be resolved, Tiger Immortal Fortress’s situation should remain stable for at least the next decade or two!”

His gaze returned to the simulation panel.

【After hearing Tiger Immortal pour out his heart, you declare that you’re absolutely certain you can reconcile with Gold Coin Leopard Demon King.】

【Tiger Immortal’s face shows utter disbelief. How could centuries of enmity be resolved so easily?】

【But you stake your life on a military oath, declaring that if you fail, you’ll spend the rest of your life farming and growing flowers for Tiger Immortal.】

【To support your claim, you reveal some information — that you also possess some expertise in medicine, specializing in male reproductive disorders and infertility…】

【Tiger Immortal’s face shows surprise, and he agrees to give it a try.】

【With your strong recommendation, Tiger Immortal takes action.】

【He sends an envoy to Gold Coin Leopard Demon King, expressing his wish to host a banquet for him.】

【Gold Coin Leopard Demon King naturally scoffs at the invitation, not only killing the messenger but declaring that he wants Tiger Immortal’s head as an apology.】

【Upon hearing this, Tiger Immortal flies into a rage, nearly charging off to fight Gold Coin Leopard Demon King to the death.】

【But under your mediation, Tiger Immortal ultimately sends multiple envoys.】

【Gold Coin Leopard Demon King, intrigued despite himself, finally agrees to the banquet.】

【However, the banquet must be held in Gold Coin Fortress!】

【And Tiger Immortal is required to come alone, attending the feast single-handedly!】

【Upon hearing these conditions, not only do you furrow your brow, but the other demon generals in Tiger Immortal Fortress are united in their opposition as never before.】

【Once inside Gold Coin Fortress, Tiger Immortal would be wounded and deep in enemy territory, placing him at an absolute disadvantage.】

【But Tiger Immortal was bold and courageous. He agreed to attend the banquet alone, bringing only you along.】

【Seven days later, Tiger Immortal brought you to Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s lair — Gold Coin Fortress!】

【Gold Coin Fortress’s overall strength was similar to the former Tiger Immortal Fortress, but it backed up against the Eastern Sea, giving it a favorable geographic position with no danger of being attacked from behind.】

【Moreover, with Tiger Immortal Fortress’s strength greatly diminished, it was far less appealing than Gold Coin Fortress.】

【You even spotted several familiar demon cultivator figures — they had apparently lived in Tiger Immortal Fortress before but had now relocated to Gold Coin Fortress.】

【Your human identity drew countless hostile glares from demon cultivators along the way.】

【But a single glance from Tiger Immortal sent these demon cultivators scrambling away in panic.】

【Though wounded, the dignity of an Earthly Immortal realm demon cultivator was not to be trifled with.】

【Tiger Immortal walked straight toward the depths of Gold Coin Fortress, seemingly very familiar with the place, completely ignoring any potential risks.】

【Before long, Tiger Immortal led you into a grand cave dwelling hall.】

【There sat Gold Coin Leopard Demon King, standing two zhang and five chi tall, perched upon a throne at the head of the great hall, his eyes dark and inscrutable, betraying neither joy nor sorrow.】

【Though this was supposed to be a banquet, there was neither wine nor food in the hall.】

【Seeing that Tiger Immortal had actually dared to come alone, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King was so furious he laughed instead. A mysterious pressure of the Earthly Immortal realm emanated from him, bearing down upon you and Tiger Immortal.】

【Tiger Immortal shielded you behind him and released his own pressure in kind.】

【The two mysterious forces collided in midair, producing enormous fluctuations that left the surrounding demon cultivators pale-faced and barely daring to breathe.】

【After the pressures clashed for a moment, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King was the first to withdraw his.】

【Tiger Immortal’s expression remained unchanged. With a wave of his hand, he conjured a massive stone chair and sat down upon it.】

【Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s eyes flickered with surprise and uncertainty, for Tiger Immortal had shown no sign of weakness in their exchange — as if he bore no injuries at all.】

【King against king, general against general — with the two great Demon Kings facing off directly, the surrounding Human Immortal realm demon generals dared not utter a word.】

【At this point, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King let out a cold laugh, questioning Tiger Immortal’s audacity — not only had he dared attend the banquet, but he had actually brought along a human cultivator who hadn’t even reached the Immortal realm.】

【Tiger Immortal responded with a cold snort, as if about to speak but then holding back.】

【At that moment, you spoke up, declaring that you were well-versed in medical arts, having once studied a supreme healing technique specializing in difficult ailments and infertility.】

【Gold Coin Leopard Demon King was dismissive upon hearing this. He knew he had no illness — it was simply that his advanced age and profound cultivation made it difficult to sire offspring.】

【But then Tiger Immortal spoke up, saying he had come precisely to settle their grievances.】

【If the treatment proved fruitless, Tiger Immortal was willing to cede a thousand li of territory, plus a mid-grade spirit vein as compensation!】

【Upon hearing Tiger Immortal’s words, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s face showed astonishment. Ultimately, he agreed to accept your treatment.】

【You gave a slight nod, feeling moved by Tiger Immortal’s trust in you.】

【You then produced a set of acupuncture tools, walked up to Gold Coin Leopard Demon King, and began your diagnosis with great theatrical flair.】

【You examined Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s tongue coating, took his pulse, and used needles to unblock his meridians — the entire process looking thoroughly convincing.】

【But in truth, you secretly activated the Gift of Roses talent, transferring your useless Blessed with Descendants talent to Gold Coin Leopard Demon King.】

【The entire treatment lasted half a shichen. In the end, you spat out a mouthful of blood, your face deathly pale and your aura feeble.】

【Tiger Immortal was alarmed and moved to check on you.】

【But you raised a hand to stop him, explaining that you had merely employed a once-in-a-lifetime secret technique — one that could cure infertility but at the cost of a thousand years of lifespan.】

【Tiger Immortal relaxed upon hearing this, while Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s eyes held a glimmer of astonishment.】

【With his level of cultivation, he could vaguely sense that at a certain instant, some kind of connection had been established between you and him.】

【But he did not understand the Dao of cause and effect, and thus did not realize he had already been tainted by your karmic bond.】

【After the treatment concluded, you declared that Gold Coin Leopard Demon King need only be diligent in his bedchamber activities, and within three to five years, offspring would surely be born!】

【Gold Coin Leopard Demon King waved his hand dismissively and said nothing more.】

【Tiger Immortal and Gold Coin Leopard Demon King agreed that if no heir was born within five years, the thousand li of territory plus the spirit vein would be handed over in full.】

【Under Tiger Immortal’s protection, you safely departed Gold Coin Fortress.】

【This banquet had been fraught with danger but ended without incident.】

Su Xing nodded slightly upon seeing this, murmuring:

“So now we just need to quietly wait for Gold Coin Leopard Demon King to sire new offspring, and the crisis facing Tiger Immortal Fortress will be half resolved…”

His gaze turned back to the simulation panel.

【Year thirty-five. You continued lying low in Tiger Immortal Fortress, cultivating and improving your strength daily.】

【After reaching the Grand Accomplishment realm, advancing Body Tempering cultivation became increasingly difficult. You were still some distance from the late stage of Grand Accomplishment Third Layer.】

【This year, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King had seemingly not yet sired any offspring, and Gold Coin Fortress continued launching attacks against Tiger Immortal Fortress…】

【And so, two years passed.】

【Year thirty-seven. You successfully emerged from seclusion, your cultivation having advanced to the late stage of Grand Accomplishment Third Layer!】

【Your spirits were high. You performed a divination using your cheat ability and determined that good fortune was imminent!】

【Sure enough, a month later, news arrived from Gold Coin Fortress — four of Gold Coin Leopard Demon King’s favored concubines had successively given birth!】

【Three sons and one daughter. With heirs to carry on the legacy, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King was in excellent spirits.】

【At the same time, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King extended a banquet invitation to Tiger Immortal, expressing his desire to host you as a guest of honor.】

【Tiger Immortal was utterly astounded upon hearing this — after centuries without offspring, just three years after your treatment, the Demon King had sired four children!】

【Such a transformation could only be described as heaven-defying.】

【To show his sincerity, Gold Coin Leopard Demon King set the banquet location at the border between the two Demon Kings’ territories.】

【On the day of the banquet, Tiger Immortal brought you along with several Human Immortal realm demon generals to attend.】

【This banquet was no ambush. Gold Coin Leopard Demon King expressed his gratitude to Tiger Immortal and signed a new alliance pact, guaranteeing he would never attack Tiger Immortal’s rear. From then on, the two would watch over and assist each other.】

【That day, the two Demon Kings drank until they were thoroughly inebriated, their relationship restored to what it had been a thousand years ago — as close as brothers.】

【Gold Coin Leopard Demon King was especially grateful to you. Having investigated your preferences in advance, he prepared several hundred jin of Human Immortal realm Demon King Blood Essence for you.】

【After the banquet ended, you returned to Tiger Immortal Fortress.】

【From then on, you began attempting to refine the Rebirth Pill.】

【However, the energy contained in the blood essence of Human Immortal realm demon cultivators was vastly different from that of Mahayana and Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators.】

【You struggled greatly with the precise refinement requirements.】

【It took you two full years before you managed to work out the refinement method for this tier of Rebirth Pill.】

【Year thirty-nine. You consumed a Human Immortal realm Rebirth Pill and attempted to cultivate with it.】

【You discovered that while this tier of Rebirth Pill was highly effective, its medicinal potency was too fierce. To fully absorb it, you needed several days.】

【That is, taking one pill every three days was sufficient for your cultivation needs.】

【But even so, the rate of your Body Tempering cultivation advancement was nearly fifty percent faster than before!】

【And so, another three years passed…】

【Year forty-two. After consuming large quantities of Rebirth Pills, your cultivation gradually approached the Peak of Grand Accomplishment Third Layer.】

【You began preparing for the breakthrough to Grand Accomplishment Fourth Layer.】

【Over these years, the relationship between Tiger Immortal Fortress and Gold Coin Fortress had steadily improved, and the pressure on Tiger Immortal Fortress was no longer as great as before.】

【The injuries Tiger Immortal had sustained in previous years had essentially healed, and his combat power had returned to its peak.】

【But the situation at Tiger Immortal Fortress was not entirely optimistic. Over the past decade, nine of the thirty-six Demon King factions in the Hundred Thousand Mountains had been wiped out.】

【Such a drastic upheaval had never occurred in the preceding millennia.】

【You increasingly suspected that a mysterious force outside the Hundred Thousand Mountains was fanning the flames, accelerating the massive depletion of Demon King factions.】

【Ever since the Gold Coin Fortress incident, your status in Tiger Immortal Fortress had risen further, with Tiger Immortal now treating you as his chief strategist.】

【Therefore, you advised Tiger Immortal to avoid conflict with surrounding Demon King factions as much as possible and instead unite to face the potential hidden threat.】

【Tiger Immortal, however, dismissed your counsel, for he was at a critical juncture in his territorial dispute with Bear Demon King.】

【The two factions had been fighting over spirit veins for years, with casualties on both sides and their strength rapidly draining through internal strife.】

【Year forty-three. With your counsel having fallen on deaf ears, you devoted more of your attention to breaking through your bottleneck.】

【After all, you were merely a temporary subordinate under Tiger Immortal. Only your own strength could serve as an absolute foundation.】

【Meanwhile, the renewed alliance between Tiger Immortal Fortress and Gold Coin Fortress had remained solid, and the Hundred Thousand Mountains were not so easily brought to ruin.】

【Year forty-four. You presented three hundred Spirit-Gathering Flowers to Tiger Immortal. Greatly pleased, he rewarded you with a generous amount of Human Immortal realm Demon King Blood Essence.】

【By this time, your cultivation had reached the Peak of Grand Accomplishment Third Layer. After refining Rebirth Pills, you prepared for your breakthrough.】

【After half a year of secluded cultivation, your breakthrough failed.】

【The minor bottleneck between the early and middle stages of Grand Accomplishment was not so easily overcome.】

【Your Body Tempering talent was only purple-grade, which gave you no significant advantage.】

【And while the Heaven Devourer talent maximized your absorption of Demon King Blood Essence, allowing you to consume higher-tier energy, it could not directly help you break through a bottleneck.】

【After the failed breakthrough, you were somewhat dejected, but you quickly rallied your spirits, preparing to accumulate a deeper foundation before attempting again.】

【And so, two years passed…】

【Year forty-six. Battles between Demon Kings had grown even more frequent. Fortunately, Tiger Immortal’s strength was formidable, so he had not suffered any serious injuries, and Tiger Immortal Fortress’s position remained relatively stable.】

【This year, you had accumulated a considerable reserve of blood essence and prepared to attempt the breakthrough once more!】

【After eight months of secluded cultivation, you successfully broke through to Grand Accomplishment Fourth Layer!】

【Congratulations on becoming a mid-stage Grand Accomplishment cultivator!】

【Year forty-seven. You learned devastating news from Tiger Immortal.】

【The Lesser Azure Cloud Realm’s war against the foreign races had suffered catastrophic losses over the past two years.】

【Several months ago, two Heavenly Immortal level demon cultivators had fallen!】

【As a result, the Hundred Thousand Mountains had descended into even greater chaos. Every Demon King was stirring restlessly, eager to devour the territories and wealth left behind by the fallen Heavenly Immortal great demons.】

【Under these circumstances, in just three short years, several Demon Kings had perished.】

【Of the original thirty-six Demon Kings of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, fewer than twenty now remained…】

【Year fifty. A sense of wariness crept into your heart, for it was around this time in a previous simulation that Tiger Immortal had perished and Tiger Immortal Fortress had fallen.】

【Fearing history might repeat itself, you constantly reminded Tiger Immortal to act with caution.】

【One day, Tiger Immortal met with Gold Coin Leopard Demon King to discuss a matter.】

【It turned out that Golden Eagle Demon King, who controlled the territory behind Tiger Immortal, had perished. His ten-thousand-li domain and several spirit veins were now without a master.】

【The two great Demon Kings were preparing to seize this opportunity to expand their forces and claim those resources…】
