Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1048

Chapter 1048 Fighting the Demon Emperor

"Welcome to the seventh floor. You have 4 hours to defeat the demon."

Shortly after Yuan arrived on the seventh floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda, the Demon Emperor, still with its eyes closed, spoke in a calm voice, "What is your name, human?"

"Tian Chenyu." Yuan said with a smile on his face to see how the Demon Emperor would react.

"..."

The Demon Emperor's eyebrows slightly twitched upon hearing Yuan's words, but other than that, it really didn't have any reaction.

"I'm just joking. You can call me Yuan, Demon Emperor."

"You're a peculiar human, Yuan. Not only are you able to stand there and talk with me without pissing your pants but you can even make jokes. I guess you made it this far for a reason."

"Oh? A demon is actually praising a human? As expected, Demon Emperors are different. Compared to the mentally weak demons that will become enraged at the slightest provocation, you guys aren't like that, and it's almost like I am speaking to another human…" Yuan said with a profound smile on his face.

"...What did you just say?" The Demon Emperor mumbled in a dazed voice, its aura suddenly shooting into the cloudless sky.

"Oh? Did I hit a nerve?" Yuan chucked.

"Did you just compare me… to humans? You think I am like a human? Me? A Demon Emperor? Know your place!"

The Demon Emperor suddenly opened its eyes, revealing violet eyes that emanated intense killing intent.

"..."

A nervous smile appeared on Yuan's face when the Demon Emperor's chilling aura permeated the entire area there. Even with his prowess and talents, he still couldn't help but tremble before it. Although he didn't think that he was going to lose to this Demon Emperor, he knew that it wasn't going to be an easy task, especially considering that he'd just angered the Demon Emperor.

The Demon Emperor began approaching Yuan in slow and steady steps, looking extremely menacing.

Yuan tightly held onto his Empyrean Overlord and prepared to fight the Demon Emperor.

"Remember the name of the demon who will kill you, my name— Demon Emperor Wraith!"

Demon Emperor Wraith roared right before it summoned a bloody axe in both hands and rushed at Yuan.

Ding!

Yuan blocked one of its axes with the Empyrean Overlord, but the Demon Emperor had a second one, and it used it to attack him almost instantly afterward.

Ding!

The Starry Abyss appeared right in front of the location that the axe was going to land, blocking it.

However, since he was controlling the Starry Abyss with a technique, it wasn't as powerful as the sword in his hand.

Yuan quickly used his movement technique to dodge the Demon Emperor's second axe right before it bypassed the Starry Abyss' defense and gained some distance between them.

"Not bad…" Yuan smiled.

"Ha!" The Demon Emperor didn't give Yuan any time to rest and immediately chased after him.

The two of them would go back and forth for the next five minutes blocking and attacking each other.
