"Welcome to the ninth floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda and my little secret place. The three of you are the first ones besides Tian Chenyu to see this place." Yuan said to them with a smile.

Feng Yuxiang and the others came out of his body to look at the scenery before them.

"What is this place?" Lan Yingying asked him.

They were standing before a small hill that was filled with flowers, and on the top of this hill was a large tree. However, this place didn't look anything special. In fact, it looked oddly ordinary.

Despite that, this place was one of the most important and precious places in Tian Chenyu's memories.

"Tian Chen— I used to come to this place often with my childhood sweetheart before she was killed by a demon, though it was always against my own will." Yuan said with a bittersweet smile on his face.

"And this place is the true purpose of the Demon Sealing Pagoda? I still don't understand." Feng Yuxiang asked.

"Just wait a little longer." Yuan said.

He then raised his arm and pointed it at the tree before making a beckoning motion with his hand.

Whoosh!

A long object suddenly flew from the tree and into the air for a few seconds before it pointed itself at Yuan and flew towards him.

"Young Master! Watch out!" Feng Yuxiang warned him.

"It's fine." Yuan said with a calm look on his face before catching this object in one smooth motion.

"That is… a sword?" Xiao Hua mumbled.

Yuan nodded as he held the black and red sword in front of him to show it to the others.

Unlike the Empyrean Overlord that was classified as a Greatsword, this sword with a black hilt and a thin red blade was shaped like most ordinary swords. However, this sword was anything but ordinary, as it naturally emitted a demon sealing aura that was strong enough to rival even the top demon sealers in the Demon Sealing Clan. Furthermore, if one looked closely, they would be able to see the words 'Demon Sealing' flawlessly engraved on both sides of the blade.

"Demon Sealing Sword— this is one of the Divine Paragon's three demon sealing treasures that he used to push the demons to near extinction."

"And this scabbard from the last stage is from this sword." Yuan placed the sword back into its scabbard, reuniting the two after millions of years of being apart.

"Why did you separate it in the first place? And why make the scabbard the reward for the eighth floor?" Lan Yingying couldn't help but ask.

Yuan smiled and said, "This may seem like a joke, but I am serious when I say this. I made it the eighth floor's reward because I couldn't be bothered to find a proper reward. After all, nobody besides myself would be able to pass the eighth floor, so there's no point in putting any treasure there."

"Unbelievable…" Feng Yuxiang mumbled.

"Anyways, now that I have this sword, all demons will be at my mercy." Yuan said with a cold grin on his face as he stared at the sword in his grasp.

[Demon Sealing Sword]

[Grade: Mythic]

[Quality: Peak]

[Description: Once wielded by the Divine Paragon and used to slay over 100,000 demons. Demons damaged by this sword will instantly be sealed. Damage inflicted with this sword increased by 1,000%.]

The girls swallowed nervously when they saw his face.

"Even without the sword, you wouldn't lose to any demons…" Feng Yuxiang said.

"That's not true. In my current state, I would lose if I encountered a real Demon Emperor. In the end, the Demon Emperor from the seventh floor isn't a real Demon Emperor, else it wouldn't have lost so easily." Yuan shrugged.

"Anyways, now that we are done here, let's get out." He then said.

They nodded and returned inside his body.

Before leaving the Demon Sealing Pagoda, Yuan took a moment to gaze at the scenery one last time.

"We will definitely reunite again, Ai Rong…" Yuan mumbled in a low voice before disappearing from the ninth floor, appearing back on the first floor a moment later.

After storing the Demon Sealing Sword inside his spatial ring, Yuan approached the exit and opened the door, leaving the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

Outside the pagoda was Yan Hara, who had a surprised look on her face for some reason.

"You're out already? What happened? You were inside for a much shorter time than your first attempt!" She asked him.

"Yes, and I cleared the Demon Sealing Pagoda." Yuan said with a calm face.

"Y-You what…?" Yan Hara stared at him with a baffled look on her face.

"I cleared it. On the fifth floor, I had to fight three demons that were all at the same level as the demon on the fourth floor. On the sixth floor, I had to fight an Abomination. On the seventh floor, I had to fight a real Demon Emperor. I didn't have to fight anything for the last two floors because there was nothing to fight." Yuan gave her a brief explanation about his experience inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda.

"Three demons? An Abomination? A real Demon Emperor?" Yan Hara still couldn't believe it. Did Yuan really manage to clear the Demon Sealing Pagoda that hasn't been cleared since its creation in just a few short hours?

"Anyways, there's something I want to talk to you about, Senior Yan… Or should I call you Demon Sealer Yan? This is a very important topic that concerns the future of the Demon Sealing Clan."

"W-What are you talking about?" Still dazed, Yan Hara asked him.

In response, Yuan retrieved the ring he'd acquired from the seventh floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda as a reward and showed it to her.

"Do you know what this is?" He asked her.

Yan Hara's eyes widened with shock when she saw the ring.

"I-I-Impossible! Why do you have that ring?!" Yan Hara was so shocked that she fell on her buttocks.

Yuan smiled and said, "Let's go somewhere more private."
