If he wanted to create a follower that would be fully loyal to him, then just using the blood of the monsters within the blood pool alone would not be sufficient.
At most, it would only be somewhat more powerful than the gods and the buddhas.
At this level, that kind of power would not be useful to him.
It was not that he looked down on his followers with low powers, but mainly because they could easily die.
For example, Heifeng, Yanhu, Thunderclap Mantis, and Xiaotian. He did not look for them to join him in his quests or when he was farming monsters.
It was because they were a bit weak. If they were to encounter any danger, not only would they not be able to help him, they would even drag him down the drain along with them.
He was not looking down on them, but he was protecting them.
'My brothers are too weak. They cannot fight with me because I'm afraid that they'll die. If there's any danger, I'm willing to face them alone!'
