Night. The round moon was hanging high and stars filled the sky.
However, within the river of stars, there were Green, Black, and Blue colored lights lingering among them and they were especially dazzling.
“Abnormal signs appear in the sky, which means an Evil Body will descend.”
On the summit of a mountain in the thirteen Provinces. An old man in black clothes stood with his hand behind his back and he was looking up into the night sky.
Behind him were tens of thousands of cold, sharp experts. All of them were half-knelled as if waiting for some command.
*Boom*
Suddenly, the lights condensed and formed into a three colored palm. It came striking down from above the river of stars and the heavens towards the abyss.
At that instant, the black night became a white day. Even before the strike of the lightning, the ground was already rumbling and fiercely trembling.
But that 3-colored lightning. The moment it collided with the land, it did not do any terrifying damage. Rather, it completely disappeared.
At the same time, the world was enveloped by the night once again. The originally bright night sky darkened quite a bit, as if some important essence was removed, and the former serene days were restored. This strange scene happened in the Devil world, Demon World, Underworld as well.
The old man’s eyes were abnormally bright and his excited body was even trembling. He pointed towards the location in which the lightning had landed, “Within the borders of the Bo Province, bring all the infants that were born tonight back to the Holy mountain!”
“Yes sir!”
The deafening response resonated past the horizon and tens of thousands of mountain experts headed towards the Azure Province. They swore to look for the Evil Body and give it to the Mountain for use.
Red Sky. Somewhere in the Devil world.
An old man with sharp eyebrows, with raging evil spirits also watched this vision with a wicked grin laughed to the heavens “jee jee interesting seems this old man might find a qualified disciple after all”
Purple Sky. Demon World Imperial City.
A beautiful woman with gold eyes sat upon a throne watched the sky with a frown “it seems I can’t escape fate. 1000 years I haven’t made a breakthrough due to the love knot, unless I find my soul mate I won’t be able to inch forward”
5 years later. In the abyss towards the ice prison land came a heartbeat. Very faint at first but gradually grew stronger inside a 3 feet black egg.
*creak* *crack* *crash!*
Out came a pair of pointy horns, a head full of dark green hair, sharp fangs and nails. Grey body with black scales, a long sharp tailed little demon flashing a greedy light from those black as ink eyes. Out from his stomach came a terrible sound *ughhhhh* “I'm starving!” then he fell face first into the snow.
As he stood up he looked around “ah? Ice prison?” the little demon knew where he was due to the memory heritage all demons get when they are born. The reason he’s been in his shell for as long as 5 years is in fact due to the memory heritage being too strong.
He knows he is a drought demon; they have an innate ability to take the life around them and use it to sustain them. Although he is hungry but he won’t die of starvation since he can take elemental essence from the heavens and the earth.
Nearby he saw a dead body of an old man, his body was giving off a very powerful feeling almost couldn’t breathe. He looked at the shiny ring on the old man’s finger exposing a greedy light but he was still very cautious.
He slowly crept up then removed the ring from the corpse’ finger “wow it’s a space ring!” he learned about these rings from his memory heritage, they can hold thousands of miles worth of space inside.
Since he knows it’s a space ring then he’s sure there might be food inside. He quickly cut his finger out came a black colored blood as it dripped on the ring *bzz* then he felt as if the ring was a part of him.
His eyes shining, quickly put his mind into the ring, found a lot of books, a few weapons, a million lingshui, clothes, refining material, some alchemy, a weird box and a crystal heart.
After seeing all these he was a little dejected “ugh not even any meat!” paused then he looked at the crystal heart and felt a wave of calling, he quickly removed it, stared at it for a while then came a *bzz* it flew up and before he could even react, the crystal heart punctured his chest “ahhhhh!!!” then he fainted.
He woke up who knows how long later and felt a very cool feeling in his body, as if all the ice element was rushing towards him, through his acupuncture points and into his slow beating heart.
He quickly sank his mind into his chest and found that the crystal heart had fused with his and came a large wave of information to his mind: Heart Devil “ah? Seems to be a martial art heritage, to devour ice element, chi, magic gas into your heart and turn it into a Dan, then I’ll be able to use ice magic freely”
Bright eyes shining then he quickly sat down cross legged and started reciting the heart devil formula “heart relentless, magic into the heart eternal cold is my world, I am king of chi, all belongs to me….”
Then came raging black magic gas from a radius of a thousand miles, the temperature drops more and more quickly as it all united to where he is.
In the heart formed a whirlpool of ice, magic and, evil spirits. After a long time then formed a Dan the size of a bean. He then noticed his cultivation was steady rising until his body came a booming sound like thunder it seems he made a breakthrough into a Big Demon which is equivalent to build a base for humans.
His body grew to about 5 feet, a leaner build, sharper fangs, longer tail his age looks about 10 years old now he felt his muscles had explosive force, gripped his hand then to a wall *boom!* a huge hole was made “ah it seems my internal force is atleast 200 jin”
“it seems its about time to get out of this pit and see the world!” he is only 5 years old after all, although he has memory heritage but of course he will want to experience everything himself. He sank his mind into the ring once again and found a pair of black pants and quickly put it on.

Since he can control ice now at the basic level he quickly motivated the heart and formed stares up to the thousand foot high pit and climbed to the top.
As he looked around, he saw an ice filled world with lots of magic gas surging and a big black sun in the sky that made his body feel very comfortable. He peered off into the distance and saw a bloodthirsty boar. He remembered how hungry he was and basically had drool down his chin.
He quickly calmed down and re-examined the boar, saw that it was a level 1 warcraft, though only level 1 but its bloodthirsty nature gave it extra strength which he learned from his memory heritage. He pulled out a black dagger from his space ring and devised a plan.
Although he has memory heritage but this counts as his first hunt so he’s nervous but also very excited. He crept up, climbed a tree as he slowly waited for his prey to arrive, as the boar trotted past it felt a wave of danger but it was too late.
A little drought demon flee from a tree at a fast speed and pierced its skull and died instantly.
“whoow that was easy” he said grinning. Of course it was easy because the dagger is a high grade spiritual device, if it was with his claws it would have been a hard struggle due to the boar having such a thick skin.
He picked up the boar and brought it to the nearest cave, sat down, and ate like his life depended on it, after several minutes leaving only bones. “ah that hit the spot… but its not enough!” yes. This greedy little demon is still hungry even after eating a 600 pound boar to the bones.
As he stood up getting ready for the next hunt came a scream in the distance “ahhh get away from me you scum!”
“jeejeejeejee come back here and let me taste you”
“boss I bet she’ll go for a good price at the slave market” one man said with a wicked grin
The Drought Demon saw the young woman, small red horns, she was exceptionally beautiful, seems to be a succubus one of the most human like of all abyss races that he learned from his memory heritage.
“ha..ha…ha” as she panted, running into my cave “please demon.. save me.. I’ll do anything” she said with pleading eyes. “anything?” his eyes flashing a greedy light “be my slave from now on, how?” he grinned wickedly
“shameless!” the succubi angry said through her teeth
“well there’s nothing I can do” as he shrugged and turned away with a smile
The succubi bit her lower lip thought for a while and said “well I promise!”
“ah? I was joking didn’t think she would agree” as he thought. “well, go deep into the cave I’ll handle these guys”
“haaaa” as she sighed in relief and quickly ran towards the end of the cave and hid behind a rock
The two men ran inside the cave “come out come out!” “you can’t hide bitch!” then they turned to drought demon one said “hey you little demon I know she’s hiding in here, we’ll give you 3 interest to tell us where she went or we’ll skin you alive” as they grinned
“kill me ? you wastes?” Drought demon smiled contemptuously, these guys are only little demons dare act recklessly.
He disappeared like a ghost then heard “ah!!!!” one man’s chest was pierced “boss…..” then his eyes went slack. Dead
“Dammit boy dare kill my men!” the boss thug is also a big demon as Drought demon so he was furious someone dared to kill his men in front of him. “ice storm!” he quickly cast out a spell towards Drought demon.
As Drought Demon saw the spell operation, seemed in slow motion, he quickly memorized it, dodged the attack then came up in front of the thug and played the same hand print “ice storm!”
The boss thug was completely dumbfounded, he spent 2 months trying to learn that technique and this little demon only saw it once to play it, he paused for a second due to surprise but it was too late and three large icicles pierced his chest *cough cough* staring wide at drought demon “…..impossible” then died on the spot.
Drought demon quickly collected their rings, then cast drought demon innate ability: Burial Field on the bodies and they turned into negative energy and into his body. He felt his cultivation grew to mid Big Demon, looked at the succubi with a smile and said “you’ll keep your promise?”
She was completely spellbound, wondering how he killed them so easy, why the bodies turned to dust, who is this strange demon. Then she looked at him for a moment with a hint of struggle then nodded her head “though succubus don’t have a great reputation but I Mufei always keep my promises, slaves seen the owner!” then she knelt down resolutely.
I don’t know why, seeing her like this made him grin ah great sense of accomplishment, who wouldn’t want such a beautiful maid at their side ? “well get up, go clean in the lake I’ll grab food” he smiled then disappeared like a ghost.
Soon after he came back with six large animals flashing a greedy light in his eye, then paused and inside the case he saw Mufei all cleaned up, new clothes looked beautiful, he couldn’t help but suck in some air “giggle master you’re thinking about naughty things?” she smiled
“well such a beautiful girl around me how could I not be happy?” flashed an evil grin, then he dropped the warcraft on the floor of the cave looked at Mufei as she asked “Master, would you like me to cook?”
His eyes beaming like two black suns looked a little scary “haha I would love that! Seems saving you was the right choice” he smiled and sat down.
Mufei quickly made a fire and took spices out of her space ring and started doing her magic she paused and said “Master, how many of these warcraft are you going to eat?” “all of them!” “this greedy guy” as she thought and shook her head
After Eating them all he felt slightly satisfied. Mufei saw this and was completely dumbfounded “Master, by the way what do you call?”
“ah no name” he shrugged
“no name?? Master, well how about I give you a name” she smiled
“ah okay” “hmmm how about Mammon!” “Mammon.. good name what does it mean?” “giggle one who is greedy” she smiled tenderly
