Chapter 1046 Spirit King

“Welcome to the fourth floor. You have fifteen minutes to defeat the demon.”

On the fourth floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda that was in a lava environment, Yuan patiently waited for the gray demon to show up.

A few moments later, the gray-skinned demon with a broken horn came out of the lava and stood on the platform before Yuan.

“When you’re prepared to start the challenge, say ‘Ready’ out loud.”

Yuan didn’t immediately start the fight this time. Instead, he took a few moments to silently stare at the demon.

“What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to say your famous line? That I am not worthy to fight you?” Yuan suddenly spoke with a calm smile on his face.

The gray demon narrowed its eyes at Yuan.

“You have grown a little stronger since I killed you.” The demon responded a few seconds later, almost as though it retained its memories of their last encounter.

“Just a little stronger?” Yuan chuckled.

And he continued in a mocking tone, “That’s funny, because you seem a lot weaker to me.”

“…”

The gray demon’s eyes flickered with killing intent, “Watch your mouth, livestock.”

“Originally, I was going to just kill you as soon as possible and get to the next floor, but I have changed my mind. I’m going to beat you senseless.”

“I would love to see how you’re going to do that, livestock.”

Yuan smiled, and he proceeded to start the challenge.

“Ready.”

The second Yuan started the challenge, the gray demon disappeared from its location.

“Brother Yuan!” Xiao Hua instinctively shouted because of what happened last time.

“Are you looking down on me, demon?”

Yuan spoke in a calm voice after catching the demon’s hand without turning around.

“!!!”

The demon was shocked when it realized that Yuan had caught its attack with his bare hands.

However, when it pulled back and tried to escape, the demon became even more baffled when it couldn’t break out of Yuan’s grasp.

Whoosh!

Yuan suddenly flung his entire arm, sending the demon into the air before slamming it back down onto the ground.

Boom!

The platform shook when the demon landed on the ground.

Yuan then crushed the demon’s head with his foot.

Of course, the demon recovered from the injury within seconds.

However, Yuan’s intention was just to mess with the demon and make it feel helpless, so he continued to stomp on its head while tightly holding into the demon’s hand, preventing it from running away.

A few stomps later, Yuan pinned the demon to the ground with the Sword of Eternal Torment.

“Now let’s try it with pain and demon sealing aura.” Yuan spoke with a cold grin on his face.

He then stomped the demon’s head into the platform again, but he covered his foot with demon sealing aura this time, sealing the demon with every stomp.

“S-Stop—”

Boom!

“Damn you—”

Boom!

Once the demon was almost completely sealed, Yuan pulled the demon off the floor and had it stand right in front of him.

“You’re not worthy to fight me, demon.” Yuan said before shoving his arm through the demon’s chest and destroying its crystal.

“Congratulations, you have managed to pass the fourth floor in… 4 minutes and 11 seconds. It’s a new record.”

“Here is your reward for clearing the fourth stage.”

A golden orb of light appeared from within the lava and floated towards Yuan.

After absorbing the orb of light, Yuan could feel the spiritual energy in his dantian overflow and his cultivation base soaring.

His Spirit Grandmaster cultivation instantly broke through to the peak of Spirit Lord, returning him to his original cultivation. However, that wasn’t the end of it, as his cultivation continued to soar.

<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>

<You have met the requirements for a breakthrough>

<You have reached First Level Spirit King>

<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>

<You have reached Second Level Spirit King>

<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>

<You have reached Third Level Spirit King>

<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>

<You have reached Fourth Level Spirit King>

Within just a few seconds, Yuan had entered the realm of Spirit King and even skyrocketed to the fourth level.

His aura also soared.

However, Yuan didn’t feel any excitement even though he is now a Spirit King, as he’d experienced even higher cultivation levels as Tian Chenyu.

“Congratulations on reaching Spirit King finally, Young Master!” Feng Yuxiang and the others congratulated him.

“Thank you.” He smiled as he approached the next floor.

Meanwhile, Yan Hara was patiently waiting outside.

‘Considering how fast he progressed last time, he should be on the second floor now…’

“Hmm?” She suddenly raised an eyebrow when she noticed a figure standing atop the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

“D-Divine Paragon!” Yan Hara fell on her butt when she saw his handsome face.

‘Why is the Divine Paragon appearing again? Did something happen inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda?’

After steeling her resolve, Yan Hara flew into the air and approached the Divine Paragon.

‘He’s just an illusion, so it should be fine if I took a closer look…’ she thought to herself.

Once she was right in front of the Divine Paragon, Yan Hara began inspecting his appearance in closer detail.

‘The more I look at him, the more he looks like the little founder.’

Unbeknownst to Yan Hara, she no longer saw the Divine Paragon in Yuan. Instead, she saw Yuan in the Divine Paragon.

‘The little founder… He’s definitely a descendant of the Divine Paragon…’ Yan Hara is now convinced of her theory.

Upon entering the fifth floor, Yuan found himself atop a mountain and with not two, but three demons, all three emitting the aura of a Spirit King.

Each of these demons had their own unique physique. One of them was skinny while another was bulky. The third one was even round like a balloon, which surprised Yuan. Furthermore, they were all ‘sort of’ Demon Emperors.
