Chapter 838: Deep Within His Consciousness

“Y-Yingying! What in heavens’ name was that thing?! There’s no way that thing is a demon!” Yuan asked her after running away from the hideous-looking demon.

“I have no idea… That was also my first time seeing that kind of demon.” She said.

“What about your grandparents? Have they ever mentioned a demon like that before?”

“No.”

“What about you, Feng Feng? Do you know anything about that demon?” Yuan continued to ask.

“Sorry, but I have also never heard of such a demon before.”

Yuan sighed, “I cannot believe such a monster exists in this world.”

After a moment of silence, Lan Yingying asked him, “Are you going to fight it?”

“Uhh…” Yuan hesitated on answering.

Even though he could get a lot of points by killing the hideous demon, he wasn’t sure it was worth the trouble, as it gave him a really dreadful feeling.

Suddenly, Van Hara’s voice resounded from the necklace, “Little founder, if you can defeat the Abomination, you’ll get L000 points.”

“The Abomination? Is that what it’s called? Just what is that thing? Is it really a demon?” Yuan asked her.

“Honestly, I’m not really sure myself what the monster is, but it has red skin and emits chaotic energy like demons, so they are most likely another species of demons.”

“Another species? Demons have different species…?” Yuan was speechless. Why hasn’t he heard about this until now?

“Anyways, you only need to know that they are more dangerous than ordinary demons, and nobody has ever defeated it before, but maybe you can. Good luck.”

Yan Hara stopped talking after that.

“I get a thousand points if I defeat it, which is definitely a lot of points and will secure my victory, but nobody has managed to do so in the past…” Yuan began pondering.

“Young Master, you only need to defeat it, right? That means you don’t need to kill it, only seal it. If you continue hitting it with your demon sealing techniques, it’ll eventually be sealed, right?” Feng Yuxiang said.

“You’re right. Since it has such a massive body, it will be easy to land hits on it. Okay, I will do it.” Yuan decided to fight the Abomination. After taking a deep breath, he turned around and returned to the location with the Abomination.

However, he didn’t immediately start attacking the Abomination. Instead, he sat down in an isolated area and started preparing himself for the fight.

Fortunately for him, the Abomination seemed to be asleep, as it was just sitting there with its eyes closed.

A few minutes later, Yuan opened his eyes that were overflowing with fighting intent.

He stood up and looked at the Abomination with a resolute gaze. After taking a very deep breath, Yuan summoned the Starry Abyss and used Ten Thousand Ghost Blades on it, duplicating the Starry Abyss 2,000 times.

Once he was ready, Yuan commanded all 2,000 Starry Abyss to attack the sleeping monster.

The next moment, all 2,000 daggers stabbed into the sleeping monster’s round body, turning it into a porcupine.

However, the Abomination remained still, almost as though it didn’t even feel the attack.

Seeing the lack of reaction from the Abomination, Yuan decided to continue stabbing it, slowly filling it with demon sealing aura.

Of course, since it was a demon, the holes on its body would immediately renergate the moment the daggers were removed from its body.

“What’s going on? It’s been ten minutes since I started attacking it, yet it still hasn’t woken up, nor does it appear to be sealed. Even a Demon General would be sealed by now…” Yuan scratched his head as he continued commanding the Starry Abyss to attack the Abomination.

“I think you need something stronger.” Lan Yingying’s voice suddenly resounded.

“Huh? What do you mean? Although each attack doesn’t inflict much demon sealing aura individually, it should add up, right? It worked on other demons.” Yuan said

“Yes, but that demon appears to have some sort of ability that prevents demon sealing aura from building up inside its body. I can sense your demon sealing aura entering the demon’s body, but I can also sense it coming out of its body after some time.”

“That’s ridiculous…” Yuan did not want to believe that a demon with such capabilities could possibly exist, as that would make it many times harder to seal the demon, perhaps even impossible.

Eventually, Yuan created 10,000 copies of the Starry Abyss and attacked the sleeping Abomination with them.

“How about now? Is it affecting the demon?” Yuan asked Lan Yingying a few minutes later.

“It is, but not fast enough. At this rate, you’ll need to continue this for a week before it shows any results,” she said.

“A week?” Yuan was speechless.

His spiritual energy would most likely run out before a week could even pass.

After trying for a few more minutes, Yuan recalled the Starry Abyss and gave up on attacking the Abomination temporarily to recover his spiritual energy.

‘What should I do now? My Starry Abyss is basically useless in this situation, and the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike won’t be able to kill it. Do I really have no means to defeat this monster?’ Yuan pondered for a way to defeat the Abomination while he cultivated.

Suddenly, he recalled a certain moment that he witnessed not long ago.

‘During the demon sealing tournament, the Leader of the Demon Sealing Clan infused his demon sealing aura with his Sword Aura— at least that’s what the triplets said… If I can somehow replicate that, would I be able to defeat the Abomination with it? But how do I even infuse my demon sealing aura with my Sword Aura?’

‘Hey, Divine Paragon, give me some guidance. I know you’re in here somewhere.] Yuan began calling for the Divine Paragon inside his head.

Unfortunately, there was no response from the Divine Paragon.

‘He said that he doesn’t really exist and that he’s only a fragment of my memories, so I should be able to draw out those memories, right? Maybe if I look deeper inside my consciousness…’

Yuan stopped cultivating after recovering enough spiritual energy, but he did not open his eyes.

“Young Master? Are you okay?” Feng Yuxiang asked him when she saw no movements from him.

“Please be quiet for a while, I am trying to focus.” Yuan responded in a low voice.

“S-Sorry…”

Once it was completely silent, Yuan tried to enter deep within his consciousness to find the Divine Paragon.

When he was still a cripple, in order to not go crazy from boredom since he couldn’t move his body and was surrounded by darkness, Yuan learned how to peer deep into his mind so that he could relive his memories— in a time before he was a cripple.

After doing it for many years, he got so good at it that he could essentially see any memories he wanted at will, and this included memories that were hidden deep within his consciousness with some limitations, such as memories from before he became an orphan, as he had zero memories of such a time inside his mind.

Although he hasn’t tried doing it after regaining his ability to move, he was still able to enter the depths of his consciousness with ease.

Once he entered the deepest parts of his consciousness, Yuan could see four people standing beside each other.

There was Tian Yang, the Divine Paragon, the Evil God, and even the spear-wielding General that appeared in his dream once.

“Look who we have here…”

Their familiar voices resounded inside Yuan’s head as he approached these figures that had the same face as him..
