Chapter 40 Pulsing Realm

"Oh, that? Don't you know? I thought you humans already knew about it."

The wind god Falcon replied nonchalantly, "Screech! (It's actually not a big deal. It's just that hundred years ago, a very weak human came to the Myriad Beast Mountain and did something with the demon on the peak of the mountain. I think it was resource... resource exchange. Yes, it was resource exchange."

"Someone actually made a deal with demons and devils." Ji Ruo was stunned.

Ji Ruo found it hard to accept the experience and the people he had come into contact with.

The wind god Falcon replied, "Screech! (Yes. I don't really like to be with those guys at the top of the mountain, so I wasn't there at the beginning. It was only after they came to an agreement that they let me know. He told me not to go to the foot of the mountain and kill any humans. What kind of joke is this? I'm too lazy to kill them. Humans are so vengeful. It's very annoying to attract a group of them if I kill one. They called me over for such a trivial matter. I was so angry that I beat them up. After that, they rarely came to me."

"The foot of the mountain..."

Ji Ruo was deep in thought. He felt like he had grasped something.

It seemed that the area controlled by humans was at the foot of the mountain.

More than a hundred years ago was the time when the mystic realm's martial examination system was implemented.

High-level demons like the wind god Falcon could not leave at will.

Because once she left, she would definitely attract the siege of countless high-level martial artists. Whether she could win or not was another matter. No one liked to find trouble for themselves.

Demons were not united. If a great demon or demon was attacked, it would most likely give other demons the opportunity to divide its 'property.'

"Then, aunty, do you know the details of the deal?" Ji Ruo asked again.

"Screech! (That weak human gave those guys at the top of the mountain a treasure that seems to be able to control part of the spatial power. Also, they promised that as long as the demons don't go to the foot of the mountain to kill the weak humans, the humans won't send any powerful cultivators to Myriad Beast Mountain."

She went on, "That is to say, if a weak human like you were to die in the Myriad Beast Mountain, no powerful human would come to seek revenge. That's the general idea. You humans seem to treat the foot of the mountain as a trial ground, and your life and death are up to fate."

The wind god Falcon continued, "Screech! (Both humans and low-level demons have suffered casualties over the years. In general, more low-level demons have died. However, those guys at the top of the mountain felt that humans were really stupid to send some weak humans to their deaths after giving them treasures. In their eyes, this was the humans consuming their own strength."

Lastly, she added, "They did not have to give anything. All they had to do was promise not to go to the foot of the mountain where they rarely went in the first place, and they would get a treasure for free. Anyway, they were very happy."

Ji Ruo was silent and wondered, "What's this? Is this the truth of the martial arts examination? So, the secret realm controlled by humans was obtained through such a trade."

He could not quite accept it.

"I didn't expect that humans would compromise with the demons," Ji Ruo responded with a heavy heart.

The wind god Falcon looked at Ji Ruo with a strange expression. "Screech! (Compromise? From what I know, you humans have never compromised. But don't forget, there is a premise to that deal. As long as those guys at the top of the mountain don't break the rules, you humans will not send powerful cultivators into Myriad Beast Mountain.)"

"What do you mean?" Ji Ruo was stunned.

The wind god Falcon looked at Ji Ruo and said, "Screech! (According to my understanding, the premise of a deal, isn't it that both sides of the deal have theoretically equal strength? Those high-level martial artists give even me a headache when I see them.)"

Auntie wind god Falcon's eyes were filled with resentment. "Screech! (Hundreds of years ago, my floating sky island was a continent. At that time, I took the floating sky continent out of the secret realm. When I got close to your human territory, a powerful martial artist punched the sky. After that, it became like this. So after I came back, I haven't participated in the daydream party of those guys at the top of the mountain."

"Huff!"

Ji Ruo gasped. "Is the [immersion] skill so powerful? How could she tell me this?" he mused.

"Auntie, is it appropriate for you to tell me this?" Ji Ruo asked hesitantly.

The wind god Falcon answered, "I'm telling you this not because I'm afraid of humans, but because I don't want to get myself into trouble. Back then, when I left the secret realm, I wandered around the vast sky without knowing anything and scared some humans."

She went on, "After that, I was chased and beaten up by that martial artist for several months. Ahem! In short, I'm not afraid, I just find it troublesome."

She looked at Ji Ruo and uttered seriously, "I won't hurt you. It's not because humans have the ability to sense if demons have killed humans, but because I don't like killing. My children are just born. Humans can make so many delicious things and look fun. I want them to live a happier life. It's not that I'm afraid of humans. Do you understand?"

"I know." Ji Ruo smacked his lips. "Auntie, I also think that a beautiful bird like you must be very gentle."

Although he said that, Ji Ruo remembered that he had heard a saying somewhere before...
