The demon growled in annoyance, however he did not want to be sealed by the priests of the Lotus Temple. Although it still had a chance to rise after, with the seal its strength would weaken by at least twenty percent.
Qiang Jun had just killed three of the nine demons before him without being injured in the slightest. The power he unleashed was enormous, two of the other demons were even close to dying.
Seeing that his nine beloved demons were also about to run out the demon gulped his saliva roughly, his mind was extremely chaotic.
Xin Fai could not help himself anymore, he again launched an all-out attack, while he could he did not want to waste the opportunity.
A white jewel on the devil's shoulder was targeted, Xin Fai deceived the enemy's movements so skillfully and leaped nimbly upwards.
"The Book of Seven Keys - the Hundred Full Sword!"
Hundreds of slashes hit the shoulder of the demon monster so quickly, that even the monster could not blink to find his shoulder targeted. The white gem that was about the size of a man's grasp made a cracking sound and broke into pieces making the demon very upset, therefore he also let out a stance to stop Xin Fai.
"The Book of Demon Gods - the Curse of Blood Mist!"
A thick red mist surrounded Xin Fai's body, even though it was just a collection of smoke but his body was like being in the boiling lava of a merapi mountain. Not only that, when inhaling the air the entire organs of Xin Fai's body felt devoured by the fire.
"Adrrarghhh!"
Xin Fai took a few steps back and found that her body was not perfect anymore. The part of the stomach affected by the fog opens and reveals its intestines.
Xin Fai could only endure the nausea while waiting for her body to return to its original state. The demon did not make any more attacks after that because it realized Xin Fai had been targeting the demon gem that was the source of his life from the beginning. As one of the 33 demon gems in his body had been destroyed, the monster began to hesitate to continue the fight.
The demonic monster spewed out red blood suddenly making Xin Fai flustered, and, actually, the monster has reached the threshold of its strength which is a little because it has only been a few months to rise in Xin Fai's body and if it forces itself, the spirit will disappear.
"I will happily fight with you later, make sure you have enough strength to stop me, hahahahaha!" The demon laughed out loud echoing even Xin Fai to the point of closing his ears.
Seeing the monster's body begin to fade away, Qiang Jun immediately finished off the two mortals that were heavily injured to reduce their numbers. He used all his strength to cut through both of them.
After that the fading Qiang Jun flew towards Xin Fai and immediately stuck a finger on the child's forehead.
"What's this?"
"Gift. Because you managed to stop that demon," Qiang Jun said with a proud smile. It felt like his worries first when near death were very unnecessary.
Now that inheriting the Demon Man's body was a very proper person, he thanked Xin Fai and requested that the child use his power to protect instead of destroy.
Xin Fai listened to various advice, instructions and directions from the Celestial Emperor Swordsman. Xin Fai nodded respectfully. He had never expected in his dreams even though today he would meet a Celestial Emperor like Qiang Jun.
"The devil will rise again when you are eighteen. You have to stop him, if he succeeds he'll rise again when you're thirty. And that's when the determinant of this world is in the hands of humans or demons like him."
A golden fire-shaped mark adorned Xin Fai's forehead. The flame emblem had the same shape as the emblem on Qiang Jun's robe. The Fire Flower of the Kingdom.
Xin Fai did not quite understand what the function of the gift Qiang Jun had given but she accepted it with great pleasure.
"Thank you Senior for helping me, I promise to remember all your messages."
As it was about to fuse with the air Qiang Jun smiled faintly. "Have an adventure and become the next legend, Fai'er..."
Then the handsome young man disappeared along with the demon demons. Xin Fai held onto her forehead speechless again before finally her gaze darkened.

The onslaught of the priests stopped as Xin Fai's body sank to the ground and did not put up any resistance. Lang jumped up high and caught his master's body, while Li Yong followed along with the others.
"This kid managed to defeat the demon alone?" Said Tao Wei stroking his beard, in order to restore Xin Fai's consciousness required a sealing formation whereas the sealing they were doing kept failing because of the demons within his body.
"If the fight continues, I'm not sure we can hold on for long..." One of the twilight seniors commented, he was only able to breathe a sigh of relief when Xin Fai stopped destroying the surroundings.
"However this child is the responsibility of all of us," Tao Wei said softly. Li Yong tried to wake Xin Fai up, but a moment appeared a golden-colored light on his forehead.
"This--?! The Fire Flower Sign of the Kingdom? The Sky Emperor Swordsman's Coat?"
All the priests were quite surprised by Li Yong's words and tried to make sure.
A short while after, Xin Fai opened her eyes slowly. His originally red eyeballs were again golden as usual.
He watched the surroundings being destroyed, the trees were uprooted and some were still engulfed in the Hell Devil Flame.
Although it only had Xin Fai consciousness of fifteen percent but the demon could unleash an extremely powerful force, it became the benchmark for Xin Fai himself.
Xin Fai looked at the surrounding people with guilt.
"I'm sorry, because of me..."
"It's okay, it's not your fault but the devil in your body. Don't think about it anymore," Li Yong persuaded him to calm down, but Xin Fai's gloomy face never disappeared. He always felt a burden and a problem for everyone.
"I shouldn't have been born, I would have been a disaster for everyone." Despite speaking slowly but everyone could hear him, some of the priests who had blamed him again thought.
Xin Fai was only a 10-year-old boy who had to carry a heavy destiny as a Demon Man, after all the demon who became a legend would rise again and look for a container to hold his soul.
They could not imagine if they themselves were in the position of Xin Fai, living wrongly and dead was wrong.
Xin Fai explained that the demon inside her body would rise again when she was 18 years old. They were actually quite amazed when they heard Xin Fai meet a Celestial Emperor and managed to repel the demon with his own hands.
Tao Wei seemed to like this little brat named Xin Fai a little, he was embracing his shoulders warmly.
"From today on you will have a new family, we of the Lotus Temple will gladly accept you."
Xin Fai responded to the response with pleasure. "Thank you Senior." He had not expected that the Lotus Temple would welcome him with open arms, considering that his strength was a disaster it was certain that many people would stay away from him in the future.
Along the way back to the Lotus Temple, Tao Wei explained that Xin Fai would have to do a lasting sealing for 6 months if he wanted the demons in his body to stop evolving. With the seal is certain the demon will stop moving until it rises again at the age of Xin Fai the 18th.
Arriving at the Lotus Temple, Xin Fai was immediately taken to the basement of the monastery. The passageway with the wall from the ground was very rarely visited by people and was indeed prepared for the next birth of the Demon Man.
Until arriving at a very large room and filled with many seals as well as ancient inscriptions, Xin Fai was directed to stand in the middle of the room.
Xin Fai stared at an iron chain that was now about to be attached to his hand, and several more chains bound his body.
"Why should I be chained like this? Isn't this just sealing?"
Tao Wei explained.
"At this time of sealing, the demons within you will rebel and try to injure the priests who are in the sealing formation. It's gonna last six months in a row, and you're not allowed to eat or drink."
So surprised Xin Fai heard him.
"What?! Do you want to kill me?"
"Although it's difficult at first but you will get used to it without eating and drinking, it's also to reduce the demon power in your body. Please understand, I have no malicious intent. It's for your own good."
As if unwilling to refute any longer politely Xin Fai nodded, her two hands tied with chains hanging on top of her. In the chain were many spells that instantly suppressed Xin Fai's strength.
Xin Fai's head began to spin, the nine priests had taken positions in the sealing formation. Energy flowed in a ninth-sided circle and entered Xin Fai's body.
"Aarrrrghhh!"
Tao Wei put on a sad face to see Xin Fai scream so loudly, he could not imagine a child seemed to be tortured endlessly within 6 months. The burns on Xin Fai's chest slowly eroded as a groan escaped from the child's mouth.
Tao Wei said sadly. "There's no need to be afraid, Xin Fai. With the Lotus Temple beside you, we will not allow the Demon Monsters to seize your body."
