The person who arrived was Tian Chu Zhenren.

After Tian Chu Zhenren saw that Ye Tianfan was fine, he let out a sigh of relief.

Then Tian Chu Zhenren, with a somewhat grave expression, looked at the stone gate!

"Master? What's behind this door, exactly?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously. He realized that earlier he felt dazed, and his mind seemed to be controlled, definitely because of the issue with the stone gate before him.

Tian Chu Zhenren glanced at the stone gate complexly, then pulled Ye Tianfan, summoned the fiery Great Fire Sword, and lightly stepped forward, floating on the sword. His right hand raised a sword finger and picked towards Ye Tianfan, causing Ye Tianfan to float behind Tian Chu Zhenren, and Tian Chu Zhenren "whizzed" off with Ye Tianfan!

Accompanied by the whistling sound, Tian Chu Zhenren carried Ye Tianfan on the sword and landed on the expansive plaza of Taichu Peak.

After landing, Tian Chu Zhenren said sternly, "Tianfan, don't go there again in the future. I didn't expect that in my brief oversight when you became my disciple, I forgot to warn you, and you somehow found your way there."

"Yes, Master!" Ye Tianfan saw Tian Chu Zhenren's expression and instantly realized that it's not a safe place; it's definitely a forbidden area.

"But, Master, what's really inside?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously.

Tian Chu Zhenren saw Ye Tianfan's curious expression, paused briefly, and said, "Behind that gate is a demon beast!"

"Demon beast?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously. He had read records about demon beasts before. They are animals with Spiritual Qi in their bodies and intelligence comparable to humans, collectively called demon beasts.

However, Ye Tianfan had never actually seen a demon beast, only read about them in books. Nowadays, most demon beasts in the cultivation world are harmless. Because they are wise, they know humans are not to be trifled with, so they do not seek trouble and simply practice cultivation silently, hoping humans will not find them.

Humans seek demon beasts because every part of a demon beast is valuable. Fur can be made into magic robes and clothes, meat can be turned into delicacies, demon beast blood can be used medicinally, and some people can turn it into blood tofu. Of course, making blood tofu is a bit wasteful, as demon beast blood has significant medicinal value.

Teeth can be made into small magical treasures, bones can be used in artifact refining, ground into powder for talisman drawing, etc.

In short, capturing a demon beast has its worth for everything on it.

Thus, there's currently little news in the cultivation world of powerful demon beasts.

Except in the ten great forbidden areas, where there are many demon beasts, and all of them are very dangerous.

"Master, what kind of demon beast is it that you keep it there? Why not kill it directly?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously. Could it be that the master thinks demon beasts are full of treasures, imprisoning it to extract some blood each day?

But the master doesn't seem like such a cruel person?

"It's not imprisoned there, but only suppressed there, using the entire vein of Taichu Peak to subdue it!" Tian Chu Zhenren sighed and spoke, recalling the tale told by the previous head of Taichu Peak.

He seemed curious like Ye Tianfan, and before seeing the demon beast, he didn't understand what fear was, until he was about to inherit the head position of Taichu Peak, and the previous head took him to the stone gate.

At that time, he was almost scared out of his wits by the aura within the demon beast. This was not embarrassing; it was truly terrifying.

At that moment, Tian Chu Zhenren summoned all the magical treasures he had to barely resist the aura of that demon beast. This was credited to the suppression from Taichu Peak, as the demon beast only revealed less than one-tenth of its aura.

If its entire aura were unleashed, it would probably have directly scared him to death then, Tian Chu Zhenren thought to himself, feeling sighing.

"Inside there is a very terrifying demon beast, which once caused chaos throughout the cultivation world, resulting in the precipitous downfall of three of the seven major righteous sects, leaving only the current four major righteous sects.

At that time, Tianchu Zhenren personally led the heads of each vein to engage in magical combat against that demon beast. The combat was so intense, with furious storms and crumbling earth, space shattering, ripping apart a third of the continent. The demon beast's attack traces created seven of the ten great forbidden areas and even deterred the outsiders, the demon beasts beyond the cultivation world, from attacking the cultivation world's barriers for several years.

Ultimately, the Taichu Sect defeated that demon beast, though at a heavy cost. After sealing the demon beast individually within each peak, they were completely exhausted and severely injured, all ascending to immortality."

Ye Tianfan was astonished upon hearing about the strength of the demon beast.

Although he didn't know how powerful the Taichu Sect was at the time or what the demon beasts were, merely hearing about the ripping of a third of the cultivation world and that the demon beast created seven of the ten great forbidden areas highlights the ferocity of the battle and the terrifying nature of that demon beast.

The Taichu Sect at that time, did everyone reach the realm of immortality? Could they defeat such a ferocious demon beast, though at the cost of their lives?

"What kind of demon beast is it to be so powerful?" Ye Tianfan asked curiously, now extremely curious about the demon beast, what kind it is to achieve such a feat. If the Taichu Sect had failed to stop it at the time, would it have destroyed the entire cultivation world?

"Nine-headed Demon Dragon, that's what the demon beast is called, a demon beast with nine attributes, attributes complementing each other, indeed extremely powerful." Tian Chu Zhenren spoke with eyes closed as if closing his eyes would shield him from seeing the Nine-headed Demon Dragon, although he couldn't see it even with eyes open.

After speaking, Tian Chu Zhenren opened his eyes and pointed to the large fiery sword floating above the plaza.

"Do you see that sword? That's what suppresses the water attribute head of the Nine-headed Demon Dragon. As long as it's there, the demon beast's head won't break the seal."

Ye Tianfan looked at the seemingly unremarkable large fiery stone sword floating in the sky. If it weren't for what Master said, he wouldn't know how important this stone sword is, thinking it was just some symbol of Taichu Peak.

"Moreover, since the submission of the Nine-headed Demon Dragon, a rule has been passed down in the cultivation world: any demon beast with excessive cultivation must be cleared by all sects, whether righteous or demon sects, to prevent another catastrophe like the Nine-headed Demon Dragon.

Therefore, when you reach the fourth level of the Myriad Profound Realm and go out to train, if you encounter a potential demon beast, capture it if possible; if not, do your best to eliminate it, so they don't get the chance to grow."
