Cultivation Online

"First rule, you must defeat the demon before you to challenge the next floor."

A demon suddenly appeared on the opposite side of the room.

Yuan's eyes widened with shock when he saw that it had a black crystal embedded within chest.

"A Superior Demon? Are you kidding me?" He muttered in a voice of disbelief.

"Second rule, you will have an hour to seal or kill the demon. Failure to do so will result in getting kicked out."

"Third rule, you cannot die while inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda. If you 'die' inside, you will be transported outside safely, but you will not be able to use the Demon Sealing Pagoda for 30 days."

"When you're prepared to start the challenge, say 'Ready' out loud."

Yuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He then summoned the Empyrean Overlord and the Starry Abyss.

"Ready."

Whoosh!

The scenery suddenly changes, turning the place into an empty and spacious field.

Yuan looked around with a surprised face. Did he get teleported, or was this simply an illusion?

However, he didn't have much time to think, as the demon started attacking him the moment the scenery changed.

Yuan commanded the Starry Abyss to distract the demon, but to his surprise, the demon could sense the invisible Starry Abyss and dodge it perfectly.

'It's not only a Superior Demon, but it's also a Spirit King?! Is this demon really 'equal' to my strength?!' Yuan cried inwardly.

"Bloody Daggers!"

The demon suddenly summoned two crimson daggers using its blood, wielding it like some sort of edgy assassin.

Whoosh!

The demon kicked its legs and propelled forward like a bullet, shooting straight at Yuan at a ridiculous speed.

The demon closed their distance almost instantly, but Yuan was able to barely react and block the strike.

Boom!

Yuan was sent flying from the impact.

After quickly stabilizing himself, Yuan looked at his arms that were still shaking, and it felt like he'd been struck by a truck'” as an ordinary human.

'This is freaking ridiculous'¦ I need to focus on the fight, or I will not pass the first floor!'

Yuan quickly cleared his mind and focused on the demon with the obnoxious black crystal on its body.

"Haaa!"

The two of them clashed with each other shortly after, and every time their weapons collided, the world there would seemingly shake a little.

Boom! Bang! Clang!

They went at each other's throat like animals that have been starving for days, and Yuan used all of his techniques against the demon.

[Heavenly Domain!]

Holy pressure suddenly bore down on the demon, but it barely affected its movements if any at all.

Seeing that his Heavenly Domain didn't work on the demon, Yuan used Dragon's Gaze when the time was right.

[Dragon's Gaze!]

His eyes began emitting a golden glow that instantly stunned the demon.

However, he knew that it wouldn't keep the demon stunned for long, so he quickly used this moment to attack the demon with the Demon Sealing Strike.

Normally, he only needed to hit the demon once for it to be sealed, but Yuan didn't want to take any chances, so he continued to swing his sword until he could no longer swing it.

Yuan had managed to strike the demon 12 times with the Demon Sealing Strike before the demon snapped out of its daze, but by that time, half of its body was already petrified.

'Looks like I made the right decision by not stopping'¦' Yuan sighed inwardly when he saw that the demon was still only half sealed despite getting struck 12 times by his powerful demon sealing technique.

Compared to the Elite Demon, this Superior Demon was far stronger'” it was simply in a league of its own, and it took Yuan all of his efforts just to defeat it.

"Congratulations, you have managed to pass the first floor in'¦ 6 minutes. It's a new record." The Divine Paragon's voice resounded shortly after he sealed the demon, and Yuan was sent back to the pagoda.

"Here is your reward for clearing the first floor."

A golden orb of light suddenly emerged from the wall of the pagoda and floated towards Yuan.

Yuan extended his hands and accepted the golden orb of light.

The moment the light touched his palms, it entered his body and disappeared.

Yuan suddenly felt an outburst of spiritual energy within his Dantian, instantly raising his cultivation by two levels, reaching Fourth Level Spirit Lord.

Furthermore, all of his fatigue disappeared, and he felt completely refreshed.

<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>

<You have reached Third Level Spirit Lord>

<+??? Stats>

<You have absorbed enough Qi for a breakthrough!>

<You have reached Fourth Level Spirit Lord>

<+??? Stats>

"You may proceed onto the next floor whenever you're ready."

Yuan proceeded onto the second floor through the staircase at the corner of the room.

"Welcome to the second floor. You have one hour and thirty minutes to defeat the demon."

Another demon materialized in the pagoda, but there was something different about this demon.

The demon did not emit the power of a Spirit King. In fact, its cultivation had been lowered to Spirit Lord.

However, that was not the only change.

"This demon'¦ It doesn't have a crystal on its body'¦ This could only mean'¦ Demon General'¦"

"The pagoda reduced its cultivation but increased its rank? It will most likely be as strong as the Superior Demon in terms of raw strength, but it will also have more techniques and tricks up its sleeves."

"When you're prepared to start the challenge, say 'Ready' out loud." The Divine Paragon's voice resounded.

"Ready!" Yuan shouted out loud once he prepared himself.

The scenery changed again. However, they were no longer in an empty field. Instead, they appeared to be on a platform inside a coliseum, and there were even spectators.

"Kill that demon!"

"Kill it!"

The crowd cheered with excitement, their voices filled with passion and anger, causing Yuan's heart to tremble.
