I felt my natural instincts tell me yes to agree to this new person in front of me. My demonic form was telling me to run away.
I nodded in agreement and stepped back. I did this to make both of my instincts stay firm.
"That was no surprise. Your demonic instincts tell you to run. Your natural instincts tell you to agree. That was the best choice for both of them." The being said.
I felt happy that this being was understanding. The biggest problem now is who he is?
"Can I ask who you are?" I slightly bowed.
"My ugly brother." The little demon told me.
"Who in the name is all good things, are you calling ugly?!" The new guy yelled.
"Well, I am forbidden to call my master and any of his servants ugly. So that only leaves the ugly smuk in front of me." The little demon replied.
"I am going to kill you." The new guy glared.
"Once we have a master, we can only die by killing him or her." The little demon flew to me. "If you want to kill me, then let me see you kill him."
The tension was becoming thicker and thicker.
"Calm down both of you." I said.
The two looked at me and then back at each other.
"Alright, so you are a system helper like him, correct?" I asked.
"No. I am a physique that you can choose which one you want. When you decide to cleanse your meridians. I will get an upgrade, but once you decide on a path. You will not be able to change it." He answered.
I felt immensely grateful. Now, I had the chance to obtain something I thought I would not be able to.
"Can you tell me which physiques I can choose from?" I really wanted to get one now.
"Only by passing a singular test if you fail to meet my expectations. You will wait until your body is ready for the Heavenly Realm. If you pass, I will allow you to choose now. It will not affect you until you ascend to the Ninth Mortal Realm." He told me.
"I am ready whenever you are." I got excited.
"Congratulations, your desire for power has increased your desire to 6.0%."
"Just wait till the 25.0% for another upgrade."
I could not expect that desiring power would make me increase my desire. I still had a long way to go before I reached the full 100% Demon King of Desire.
"You will face an opponent of extreme difficulty. Even most Fifth Heavenly Realm Cultivators could die within minutes of seeing this monstrosity."
I began to feel hopeless.
"This is your opponent."
I felt as if I was still on the ship, but the surroundings changed to the African Safari. Suddenly, four earthshaking stomps could be heard. When I turned around, I saw this.
"Mutant King Four Tusked Land Mammoth"
"This Mammoth became a Mutant Mammoth by tasting the blood of a carnivorous predator."
"Once an herbivore and now a omnivore. It will eat and eat until the land it is on is barren."
"The fur on this Mammoth gives it extreme defense to all elements and physical defense. Due to its fur, a team of one thousand Fifth Heavenly Realm Cultivators will barely win against this behemoth."
"This Mammoth race already stands at Fifty feet tall. It will length between twenty to twenty-five feet long and weighs nearly five tons, has a newborn. When at full maturity, it stands at nearly One Hundred and Fifty feet tall. Its length will be between one hundred to one hundred twenty-five feet long and it will weigh in at least seventy-five tons."
"The tusks on this behemoth can be used to make weapons and jewelry. The weapons made from this have low value but are nearly indestructible. The jewelry will not be worth anything but can hold up to twelve different enchantments on them."
"The tusks are the longest when the beast has reached one hundred and ninety years old. Each tusk will be two hundred feet. The bottom two tusks curve upwards to give the Mammoth a way to crush trees. When it becomes a Mutant, it will use the curve on the tusks to kill unlucky prey."
I felt a surge of power running through me. I wanted to keep all that I could from this Mammoth.
"Are you afraid, or are you willing to fight this monstrosity?" The new guy asked.
I wanted to yell out, yes. The Spider Queen intervened.
"Is this real or fake?" She glared.
The new guy seemed to like her question. It was due to his smile.
"The battle can become a real one if he desires it. I wanted this to be a mock battle for what is to come." He bowed smiling.
I could see her red eyes glaring deep into his being. I knew she could not see anything, but I wanted this battle.
"I want to battle this. I know I am not ready. Will you allow us to make landfall and return? Or will you just declare us unwilling?" I asked.
"Your Soul is pure with that question. So I shall return the purity to you. As long as you promise me to call me. I will allow up to a week before I turn this battle into a much fiercer battle." He glared at the end.
I was glad. I could not help but want this Mammoth to be a real fight.
"If I want the battle to be real. Will you give me two weeks?" I asked.
"Gladly. You want to have your wife, bodyguard, and possibly her to fight with, correct?" He asked.
"Yes. I replied."
The new guy disappeared and did not tell me how to call him. The day turned to dusk. We had finally made landfall. I did not know. This was the start of the most hellish training I ever gave myself. Between what I wanted in my training and the training that Lilith gave both me and Demon Rex.
I knew she mainly vented her anger out due to the sudden call. A week and a half later, little demon called his brother back.
