Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1746

Chapter 1746 Arriving at the Fifth Heaven

<You have started your last trial in the Stairway to Heaven>

As the scenery shifted, Yuan found himself standing under a clear blue sky on a vast, empty, circular platform that resembled a stage. The area was expansive and open, with no obstacles in sight, as if it were designed specifically for a performance or a duel.

<Survive for an hour>

<Survive your opponent for an hour and kill it to receive a reward>

A red-skinned figure materialized several hundred meters away from Yuan. With a height of at least nine feet, the figure had six black horns atop its head and four muscular arms, each gripping a weapon seemingly forged from solidified blood. Its presence radiated a fierce, ominous energy that would terrify even immortals.

This entity was obviously a demon, most likely at the rank of Demon General since Yuan couldn't see its demon crystal, and it had the impressive cultivation of Divine Lord. "A human!" the demon roared, its voice so powerful that it made the very air tremble.

"A demon, huh? Perfect. I have been wanting to test out my Demon Sealing Aura while enhanced by chaotic essence." Yuan smiled at the sight of this demon.

However, he had to survive—keep it alive for an hour before he could kill it.

"Allow me to consume your flesh and blood!" The demon laughed out loud as it pounced at Yuan like a tiger.

"..."

Yuan didn't even bother moving and stood in place as the demon began slashing at him with its weapons.

"Are you so terrified that you cannot even move?! Pathetic!"

The demon mocked with a devious smile, but its expression abruptly stiffened when it realized it could not scratch Yuan's skin, let alone damage him.

"We've got an hour, so do your best," Yuan said as he lay on the ground and closed his eyes to sleep.

Although its skin was already red, the demon's face seemed to flush an even deeper shade as it erupted in fury, its eyes blazing with rage.

The demon proceeded to throw its weapons away and bombarded Yuan with techniques instead.

Yet, Yuan remained still and undisturbed.

The demon could even hear Yuan snoring a bit, almost as if he were in a deep and comfortable sleep. This caused the demon to snap, forcing it to use its own life to enhance its prowess.

Yuan opened his eyes to look at the demon, whose aura suddenly changed drastically.

Although demons are essentially immortal and can live for millions of years without any external energy source due to their demon crystal, they could sacrifice the power of their demon crystal for a tremendous boost in power. Once a demon uses this forbidden technique, death is inevitable shortly afterward, which is why demons rarely resort to it, even when facing death. Additionally, the act is considered shameful, something only the lowest of low demons would even consider doing.

After destroying its own demon crystal, the demon's cultivation soared to the peak of Divine Emperor, and its attack became capable of damaging Yuan.

However, even with its enhanced power and increased strength, the demon's attacks could only manage to scratch the outer layer of Yuan's skin.
