Chapter 802 – Assistance

”Thirty minutes left.” The Divine Paragonʼs voice resounded once Yuan used up half of his time on the third floor.

”Haaa… haaa…” Yuan breathed heavily, his body covered in sweat.

This is the first time that anyone has been able to compete against him so perfectly.

No matter what he did, the Demon General would always have a response to it.

It was at this moment Feng Yuxiangʼs voice resounded, ”Young Master, would you like some assistance?”

”Huh?” Yuan responded in a dumbfounded voice as he continued to block the Demon Generalʼs attacks.

He was so absorbed in his situation that heʼd completely forgotten about their existence!

”What do you mean by help?”

”Well… I am your servant… If you wish, I can help you fight this demon. Of course, I wonʼt be able to defeat it for you since I do not have the capability, but I can definitely stall it for you.”

”Can you even do that? Wonʼt that be cheating?” Yuan asked.

”Young Master, do you truly know the relationship between a servant and master? You, Young Master, own our body and soul the moment we sign the servant contract. In other words, we are your possession. Therefore, we are no different than the Soul Weapons that you have been using this entire time.”

”What?!” Yuan was left speechless by this information.

This entire time, he couldʼve had his servants help him?

”I-If thatʼs the case, why couldnʼt you help me during the Stairway to Heaven?”

”The Stairway to Heaven is a special place with special rules. This pagoda, however, doesnʼt appear to have such rules. There are no forces that prevents me from helping you— at least I donʼt feel them. And the fact that we were allowed to enter this place with you only further confirms it.”

After pondering for a moment, Yuan said, ”Please help me distract the demon while I prepare for my attack!”

The next second, Feng Yuxiang came out of his body and flicked her sleeves, instantly engulfing the Demon General in flames.

However, she was not the only one who appeared, as Xiao Hua also decided to show up. She clearly didnʼt want Feng Yuxiang to get all of the spotlight.

”Xiao Hua will help Brother Yuan as well,” she said.

”O-Okay…” Yuan nodded.

”Sorry, Yuan, but I most likely wonʼt be of any help even if I come out.” Lan Yingying said to him.

She was only a Spirit Grandmaster, so she will most likely only hinder them instead of helping.

”Itʼs okay, Yingying. We got this.”

”Hahaha! What a surprise! This flame— Phoenixʼs flame! I have never tasted Phoenix blood before!” The Demon General laughed out loud even as its body was still engulfed in flames.

”Distract it for me, I will prepare the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike.” Yuan said to them.

”Understood!”

Feng Yuxiangʼs black hair suddenly turned red, and her eyes glowed golden.

Meanwhile, Xiao Huaʼs cultivation base exploded forward.

ʼThis is my first time seeing Xiao Hua use all of her strength…ʼ Yuan thought to himself as Xiao Hua summoned a huge sword.

Even though she couldnʼt use Sword Qi, she could still wield the sword better than many Swordmasters.

While the Demon General was still covered in flames, Xiao Hua kicked her small feet and flew towards the demon without hesitation before swinging her sword, sending a massive sword light made out of spiritual energy at the demon.

Whoosh!

The sword light shattered the moment it struck the demon, but the demon wasnʼt unscathed either, as it clearly sustained some damage.

However, Xiao Hua didnʼt stop there and released a quick Heaven Splitting Sword Strike at the demon.

The ground shook as a massive beam of light swallowed the demon.

Although Yuan is stronger than Xiao Hua overall, he actually lagged behind Xiao Hua in terms of techniques, especially when it came to the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike.

The Heaven Splitting Sword Strike managed to destroy half of the Demon General, but it quickly began recovering.

It was at this moment that Feng Yuxiang released her technique.

”Burn in hell!”

With the flick of her sleeves, Feng Yuxiang summoned a large Phoenix created from her flames, sending it flying at the demon.

The heat from the flames were so intense that it slowed the demonʼs recovery, as the flames would quickly destroy the demon almost as quickly as it healed.

”I am ready!”

It was at this moment that Yuan started swinging the Empyrean Overlord.

When Xiao Hua and Feng Yuxiang heard his voice, they returned to his body.

The following second, Yuan released his Heavenly Splitting Sword Strike.

Whoosh!

Everything in front of Yuan was immediately erased from existence— including the Demon General.

”Congratulations, you have passed the third floor… in 38 minutes.” The Divine Paragonʼs voice resounded shortly after.

”Thank you, Feng Feng and Xiao Hua. I might not have defeated the Demon General by myself if you didnʼt help.” Yuan said to them afterward.

”Young Master, we are your weapons and shield. You donʼt thank your weapons every time you use them, right?”

Yuan smiled, ”Maybe I should. And donʼt lower yourself like that. You may be my servants, but youʼre also my valuable companions. I would never treat you like a tool.”

Sometime later, the golden orb appeared before Yuan, allowing him to absorb all of its spiritual energy.

Ding!

”Ninth Level… I will be able to enter Spirit King once I pass the next floor…” Yuan mumbled to himself.

Itʼs only been an hour since he entered the Demon Sealing Pagoda and heʼs already increased his cultivation by almost an entire realm.

He could only imagine how far his cultivation base will go after he finishes all nine floors!

However, with the increase in difficulty after every floor, he was a little worried about the future floors.
