CapĂtulo 1318: Chapter 655: The Battle Concludes! (Part 2)
âLetâs leave the aftermath here to Shushan.â
Everywhere the eye could see, there wasnât a single survivor on the Eighth Floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower. All the demons except for the Pingtian Demon Saint were either annihilated by Chen Yuan or reduced to ashes by the Samadhi True Fire.
The entire Secret Realm was filled with a burnt smell.
âYou go out first. I have one more thing to do.â Chen Yuan frowned as he thought about that black vertical eye on the Ninth Floor, wanting to uncover it.
In fact, while fighting the Pingtian Demon Saint, part of Chen Yuanâs spirit was already observing the surroundings. The same was true while slaughtering those demons.
Unfortunately, until everyone fell, he didnât notice anything unusual.
Jiang He didnât ask Chen Yuan what he needed to do, he just glanced at him, nodded slightly, and then turned to merge into the void, vanishing without a trace, leaving Chen Yuan alone.
Chen Yuan took a deep breath. Though he was somewhat injured, it wasnât serious, and he didnât require a long recovery. Even though his chest was pierced, his physical body was extremely strong. Limb regeneration was a minor issue, let alone anything else. Without delay, he extended his Divine Thought, sweeping through the Demon Suppressing Tower.
As he cast out his Divine Thought, Chen Yuan also opened his Heavenly Eye. If that thing had Qi Fortune on it, it would certainly be welcome. Unfortunately, he searched from the Eighth Floor down to the First Floor, and back up to the Ninth Floor, yet found no trace of anything, making him wonder if that thing had already escaped during the fight?
His eyes flickered with uncertainty. After pondering for a moment, he decided to temporarily give up, quickly leaving the Ninth Floor, ready to exit the Demon Suppressing Tower. Without the Pingtian Demon Saint, the demons below were far weaker, easily crushed with little effort.
However, since those demons had their uses, Chen Yuan didnât go for the kill; he just left directly.
Not long after he left, in the Eighth Floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower, strands of black gas suddenly rose from the ground, condensing into a vertical eye, filled with a look of terror.
After confirming that Chen Yuan had left the Demon Suppressing Tower, the black gas began to devour the scattered Demon Saint Blood on the groundâŠ

Outside the Demon Suppressing Tower.
A portal emerged, and Jiang He, dressed in white and exuding an extraordinary aura, stepped out into the void, landing gently next to the five elders of Shushan, who eagerly cast their eyes upon him and asked:
âHas the Pingtian Demon Saint fallen?â
Jiang He nodded slightly: âNot a trace of the body remains.â
âThatâs good.â
âWe can finally ease our minds over this matterâŠ.â
It wasnât that Shushan couldnât kill the Pingtian Demon Saint, but the cost was too high. They didnât dare to send all the True Monarchs in. Otherwise, if something went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After all, ever since the Immortal fell, no Shushan disciple had been able to break through.
Now with Pingtian dead, the remaining demons inside were few and feeble, powerless to withstand the might of the Shushan Sword Immortals.
âWhy didnât Marquis Wuâan come out together?â
Shen Xu Daoist suddenly asked.
âHe has some matters to attend to, but it should be soon.â
Subsequently, the five elders of Shushan began inquiring about the situation inside. When they heard that it was Chen Yuanâs Divine Fire that first eradicated those demons, causing the Myriad Demons Banner to lose its power, thereby allowing them to jointly slay the Pingtian Demon Saint, they werenât surprised because it was indeed the best approach.
However, after the Myriad Demons Banner formed its array, it not only had defensive capabilities but the Pingtian Demon Saint would also protect it. Chen Yuanâs ability to deploy a unique move to burn those demons with Divine Fire was commendable.
Especially useful in large-scale battles.
While they chatted, there was another stir from the Demon Suppressing Tower. The five elders of Shushan exchanged glances, then immediately opened the entrance, allowing Chen Yuan, clad in a black robe patterned with gold, to exit the tower.
âThank you very much, Friend Lin Mo.â Ling Xu Daoist clasped his hands earnestly, smiling gently, making him indeed feel like a spring breeze was brushing across oneâs face.
âYes, indeedâŠ.â
âItâs no trouble, just a small effort.â
âThe Demon God Flower is indeed powerful.â Qing Xu Daoist surveyed Chen Yuan, sensing the aura around him, and couldnât help but exclaim. Previously, when he saw Chen Yuan, he didnât feel much.
Between the two, they seemed evenly matched, with perhaps Qing Xu having a slight edge.
But now, even without doing anything, Chen Yuan exuded an ultimate sense of danger, which meantâŠ. Chen Yuan had means that could threaten his life.
Little did Qing Xu Daoist know, it was only because Chen Yuan had just slain the Pingtian Demon Saint and only recently broke through, unable to fully restrain his aura, even if he hadnât broken through.
Qing Xu Daoist still wouldnât be his match.
Of course, this would only be true if Chen Yuan used all available means and even the Void Stagnation couldnât hold back.
âToo bad, though the Demon God Flower greatly benefits the physical body, it actually isnât very useful for our cultivation,â Zhen Xu Daoist sighed.
Ling Xu Daoist didnât say much but looked at Chen Yuan with a hint of indescribable meaning in his eyes. Chen Yuan immediately understood, handing over a Spirit Crystal formed by the Demon God Flower to him.
âThis Spirit Crystal shows no signs of rule fluctuations; Iâm afraid Ling Xu Daoistâs plans may fall through.â
Hearing this, Ling Xu Daoist frowned but also extended his Divine Thought inside, sensing the power fluctuation within, and lightly sighed:
âTime and fate, this object will also be gifted to Marquis Wuâan.â
