Chapter 768 (2/2)
Thereafter, he was subdued by the Black Mage King and tested to be capable of cultivating red faction black magic. He then became the direct disciple of the previous generation’s Red Mage King.
From there, his cultivation path became unstoppable. That beast-like, brutal, and crafty character hidden in his body was a great match for the red faction black magic. Within a few years, he managed to progress in leaps and bounds, growing horns, sharp claws, a stratum corneum, and a tail. His physical body continued to evolve into an inhuman state.
Then as his physical body underwent changes, his beast-like character also changed rapidly, becoming increasingly brutal and cold-blooded.
It was said that in the Red Mage King’s second year of cultivation, he had given up on all human food. Instead, he would personally hunt for food and eat them raw.
He tried all sorts of ferocious beasts, cows, sheeps, horse, and even snakes. This caused his wild character to become increasingly strong.
The changes to his character brought on progression in his cultivation, causing his physical body to become increasingly inhuman. The changes to his physical body then further aggravated his character, causing him to become more and more like the legendary red evil god.
This continued until 50 years ago when there was a case of a large number of disappearances and shattered corpses discovered in the Mage Association’s territory.
From the very beginning, the members of the Mage Association’s upper echelon had suspected it to be the work of the Gray Robed Mages, who loved to deal with human experiments and sacrifices.
However, the previous generation Red Mage King unintentionally discovered that it was the act of his proudest disciple. After having swallowed countless ferocious beasts and animals, this disciple of his had finally set his eyes on humans.
“Why do you eat humans?”
“In the beginning, it was just out of curiosity. I’ve tried so many things and just wanted to try how human meat tastes like.”
“But those are humans! Humans! Even ferocious beasts would know better than to eat their own kind!”
“Is that so? Many animals eat their own children. All animals in the world can be eaten, so why can’t humans be eaten? Are you guys any special? Regardless of whether it’s the taste, the difficulty in hunting, or the expressions they have before their deaths, it is no different from how it is with animals.”
“You evil creature! I’m going do a purge within our faction today. ”
A great battle commenced then, and news of this battle was forcibly suppressed by the Black Mage King, becoming the Mage Association’s greatest secret. There were not many people who knew of it.
The even more astonishing thing was that the previous Red Mage King ended up being defeated, with over half of his body parts devoured.
After that, the Black Mage King forcibly saved this new Red Mage King and pushed the blame of the shattered corpses and disappearances onto the Gray Robed Mages. This greatly affected the turmoil concerning the Terrene Shrine 20 years later.
For many years, the Red Mage King had been detained in the Mage Tower. During this period of time, both the red and black faction Mages had been personally led by the Black Mage King himself.
That continued on until this evil god ritual. The Black Mage King finally let out this demon.
