Chapter 7"Roar! Roar! Roar!!!"The jungle at night was far from quiet, with various battles and fights constantly occurring.Although the presence of the Dog King meant no other demons dared to attack the Dog Clan, some weaker wild dogs still appeared very uneasy, huddling closely with the powerful Demon Dogs in their pack, their eyes flickering with fear as they looked at the dark jungle outside.On one side of the grass, Mo Han was resting and cultivating according to the methods in Tōgaō's memory. Strands of spiritual energy from heaven and earth and the essence of the moon flowed into Mo Han's body through his pores, then were refined into Demonic Power by Mo Han, becoming his own strength.At a certain moment, Mo Han opened his eyes, and two bright glints flashed within them.Although he had begun to adapt to his current identity and situation, Mo Han couldn't help but feel incredibly amazed. Even though he had only cultivated for a short while and hadn't gained much power, it made him feel refreshed and completely eliminated his fatigue, even reducing his hunger significantly!The so-called spiritual energy of heaven and earth refers to the essence of water and earth. In this era before humans rose to prominence, the Earth's natural ecosystem was still very well preserved, so the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was extremely abundant. Demons who awakened their intelligence absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon through their bloodlines, converting it into their Demonic Power, which was how most demons grew.By organizing Tōgaō's memories, Mo Han knew that the demons in this world could generally be divided into three levels based on their strength—Low-level Demons, High-level Demons, and Great Yokai!The vast majority of demons in this world could only be considered Low-level Demons, the so-called extras, cannon fodder, and small fry. Even Inuyasha in the original work could only be considered a slightly superior type among Low-level Demons.Above Low-level Demons, the number of High-level Demons was much smaller. Every High-level Demon was almost a leader in their respective clan, possessing immensely powerful strength. A typical example is Sesshomaru in the original work.Although Totosai stated in the later stages of the original work, 'Inuyasha,' that Sesshomaru had surpassed his father Tōgaō and become a Great Yokai capable of holding his own, that was only due to the enhancement of the powerful weapon bakusaiga. In terms of Demonic Power, calling Sesshomaru a Great Yokai was still a bit of a stretch.As for true Great Yokai, they were extraordinary. Even the entire demon race would find it difficult to produce one in decades or even centuries, but every one that appeared was absolutely a famous figure, a power that reigned at the pinnacle of this human world!Typical examples include Tōgaō, who became the Great Dog General in the original work, Ryūkotsusei at his peak, and the Oyakata, among others.According to Tōgaō's memories, as of now, the Great Yokai he knew was the Oyakata. That was a truly dominant figure in this jungle, and the entire Leopard Cat Clan was extremely powerful because of him. In this jungle, they could command wind and rain and run rampant without restraint; even the current Dog Clan had to make way for them.Oh, by the way, the current Mo Han is only a Low-level Demon, and even among Low-level Demons, he's a relatively ordinary one... This is quite awkward. A demon's growth is usually quite slow. If he were to cultivate and grow step by step as before, it would probably take hundreds of years just to become a High-level Demon, and who knows how much longer it would take to become a legendary Great Yokai!No, no, something must be wrong. Mo Han tried to calm himself down.Tōgaō in the original work was able to grow into a Great Yokai within a few hundred years; there must be some other method or shortcut.Mo Han continuously sifted through Tōgaō's memories, trying to find some clues.Surprisingly, Mo Han actually found something.To Mo Han's great surprise, Tōgaō actually possessed the Tengu Bloodline!The so-called Tengu are truly legendary divine beasts, possessing the supreme power to devour the heavens and earth. It is said that an adult Tengu can even swallow the sun; the phenomenon of 'Tengu eating the sun' comes from this!However, Tōgaō should not be a direct descendant of the Tengu; the Tengu Bloodline within him was already very diluted, and he had only recently awakened it.But according to the memories within Tōgaō's soul, even this thin Tengu Bloodline was already very powerful. After awakening this Tengu Bloodline, Tōgaō could directly devour the Demonic Power of other demons!Devouring other demons is a shortcut that all demons know can help them grow quickly, but this method is usually quite dangerous. If you can devour others, others can naturally devour you.Moreover, it's not like all of a demon's Demonic Power becomes yours if you devour them. Often, getting one-tenth or even one-hundredth of the opponent's Demonic Power is considered good; the efficiency can be said to be very low.If that weren't the case, Naraku, who devoured so many other demons in the original work, would have been invincible long ago. Why would he hide inside his turtle-shell-like Barrier every time Inuyasha and Sesshomaru chased after him to attack him?Nevertheless, devouring other demons is still much faster than accumulating Demonic Power through one's own step-by-step cultivation. This is why, since ancient times, many demons have liked to take risks to devour other demons and humans with magical powers.However, Tōgaō, who awakened the Tengu Bloodline, was somewhat different. He could directly seize the Demonic Power of other demons, and his efficiency was far higher than the crude devouring methods of other demons. He could probably seize about two to three layers of the opponent's Demonic Power with each devour.
