Chapter 1047 Seventh Floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda
Chapter 1047 Seventh Floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda
“Welcome to the fifth floor. You have one hour to defeat the demons.” The Divine Paragon’s voice resounded.
“How many years has it been since someone made it to this floor? I don’t remember…” The skinny demon suddenly muttered as it stared at Yuan with an excited smile on its face.
However, Yuan ignored the skinny demon and focused his gaze on the fat demon.
“It’s rare to see a fat demon even back in the Primordial Era. I remember my first experience with one. I nearly laughed my ass off.” Yuan said with a smile on his face.
“…”
The fat demon trembled when it heard Yuan’s words.
“What did you just call me, lowly livestock?” The fat demon growled in a cold voice.
Yuan laughed out loud, “Your reaction is the same as that fat demon when I laughed at it! I see… So I had decided to put you in this Demon Sealing Pagoda…”
“DIE! LIVESTOCK!”
The fat demon suddenly lunged at Yuan.
However, Yuan didn’t start the challenge yet. This is the first time the demon initiated the fight.
[Demon Sealing Zone]
Yuan snapped his fingers, surrounding himself and the fat demon with the Demon Sealing Zone.
The fat demon immediately felt its strength drained by the Demon Sealing Zone.
Whoosh!
Yuan swung his sword at the fat demon while it was still in the air, slicing its body horizontally in half.
[Sword of Eternal Torment]
Yuan pinned the fat demon into the ground while its body was still severed.
“Argh! What is this feeling?!” The fat demon screamed when it experienced pain for the first time.
“This feeling is called pain. Remember it well.” Yuan looked down at it with a cold smile on his face.
“How dare you look down on us!”
The other two demons shouted as it attacked the Demon Sealing Zone.
However, they quickly realized how durable the Demon Sealing Zone was, and they couldn’t even put a slight crack in it.
“Coward! Fight us if you dare!”
Yuan looked at the skinny demon who just spoke and said, “You want to fight? Sure.”
He removed the Demon Sealing Zone, allowing the two demons to reach him.
[Sword of Eternal Torment]
“Ah!”
The demons kneeled on the ground when multiple golden swords stabbed their back.
Yuan sighed, “Compared to before, the Demon Sealing Pagoda is too easy now.”
He killed the skinny and bulky demons shortly after, leaving the fat demon for last.
“You may be laughing now, but once you reach the next floor… You will witness true horror!” The fat demon said its last words before Yuan killed it.
“Congratulations, you have managed to pass the fifth floor in… 2 minutes and 11 seconds. It’s a new record.”
“Here is your reward for clearing the fifth stage.”
After absorbing the reward, Yuan’s cultivation soared once again.
<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>
<You have reached Fifth Level Spirit King>
<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>
<You have reached Sixth Level Spirit King>
<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>
<You have reached Seventh Level Spirit King>
Yuan approached the sixth floor as a Seventh Level Spirit King.
Even before he stepped onto the sixth floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda, Yuan noticed a massive round figure sitting in what appeared to be a sea of blood.
This round figure was the size of a mountain, and it had a hideous face that would make even the coldest warriors run away in fear.
“The Abomination, huh? No matter how many times I see it, it makes my skin crawl.”
“Welcome to the sixth floor. You have five minutes to defeat the demon.”
“When you’re prepared to start the challenge, say ‘Ready’ out loud.”
‘Five minutes, huh?”
The purpose of the sixth floor was to test the strength of a demon sealer’s demon sealing aura, hence why there was an Abomination and such a short time limit.
If one’s demon sealing aura isn’t strong enough, they wouldn’t be able to defeat the Abomination even if they were given a hundred hours.
However, if one’s demon sealing aura was strong enough, they could do so in less than five minutes.
Yuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
“Ready.”
[Swords of Eternal Torment]
Yuan opened his eyes and summoned over a hundred golden swords to attack the Abomination, waking it up from its slumber.
He then began gathering spiritual energy for a Heaven Splitting Sword Strike as the Abomination stumbled around and screamed in pain.
After spending a whole minute gathering spiritual energy, Yuan released the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike.
With his limiter removed, the sword light from the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike was powerful enough to cover the entire Abomination’s figure, and since he’d infused the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike with his demon sealing aura, the Abomination was not able to recover fast enough and was disaggregated until there was nothing left.
“Congratulations, you have managed to pass the sixth floor in… 1 minutes and 9 seconds. It’s a new record.”
After absorbing the reward, Yuan’s cultivation soared to the peak of Spirit King.
“Looks like you’ll be a Spirit Emperor in no time, Young Master.” Feng Yuxiang said to him as he took a moment to recover his spent spiritual energy.
“No, I won’t reach Spirit Emperor.” Yuan said.
“Huh? Are you saying that you won’t clear the next floor?” she asked in a puzzled tone.
“No, that’s not it. You’ll find out when I clear the next floor.”
Sometime later, he made his way to the seventh floor.
The seventh floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda looked completely different from the previous six floors.
There was neither a visible platform nor a sky. Instead, he was surrounded by nothing but stars, almost as though he was now inside the Stairway to Heaven.
Yuan walked onto the invisible platform and approached the figure standing many meters away. This figure had its eyes closed, seemingly asleep, but it was also emanating a bloodthirsty aura.
Yuan knew at a glance that, unlike the gray demons on the fourth and fifth floor, this demon was a full-fledged Demon Emperor.
