The Demon raised her head. She could not accept her loss. Pushing herself up with the sword, she got back on her feet with the support of her sword.

Tang Shaoyang was getting used to his new hand, opening and clenching his hand. There was a weird feeling for the new hand, anything else, it worked wonderfully. He squinted his eyes as the demon did not want to admit defeat.

“What? You can’t accept the result because you can’t use everything you have?”

He could read it from her expression and sensed her unwillingness to bow down.

“That’s right. It’s unfair! It’s two against one!” The Demon raised her voice, and could no longer keep quiet.

In a way, it was two against one because Avyn limited The Demon’s Space Elemental Power. She could use it on her sword technique, but that was limited to that. She could no longer affect the space around her unless Avyn lifted her domain.

Tang Shaoyang shrugged, “I don’t know demons will make a lot of excuses when they lose. You did not mention it before the fight, but after you lost. What a sore loser demon.”

It seemed like his provocation worked on the demon. The latter looked upset, glaring at him with resentment. It was just like a teenager who could not accept her loss.

“Just like you. I also did not use everything I had in this fight. What you see is just part of my abilities.”

He did not use Spirit Integration and True Dragon. Two strongest skills in his armory. He only used Heavenly Gate in this fight and Battle Sense. In fact, he just used Nine Heavenly Gate since The Demon challenged him into a close combat fight.

“Follow me, Demon! We will form a companion contract instead of a Slave Contract,” That would make her familiar. Just like Wrath, Greed, and Kalliyan, “Fight alongside me and free yourself from this dungeon. You will become stronger if you are free from this dungeon.”

“And I will give you a chance to redeem yourself later. You can fight me again in five years, and if you win. You can nullify the contract! Isn’t that better than disappearing with this dungeon?”

Even though he did not know if he could contract a dungeon creature. He still made the offer first. That was the thing to figure out later.

The Demon closed her eyes, looking still unwilling to give up. Tang Shaoyang waited for her to make the decision. There was no need to hurry.

It took her a while to come up with the heavy decision, “I accept my loss. I don’t want to form a companion contract. Let’s do it with a Slave Contract and add a condition that I will have once to redeem myself, not five years.”

“Does not matter to me,” Tang Shaoyang agreed, “But we still have to go with the Companion Pact as well. We can break the pact if you win against me.”

The normal contract did not have any binding force on her, so that was why he wanted to form a companion contract. They did not have a priest to officiate as well. The companion contract was the best way to bind The Demon.

“Alright. Put that condition in the contract as well.” The Demon accepted her fate. It was not that bad of a deal in the paper. She took a gauze and covered her eyes with it.

Tang Shaoyang took out a contract scroll. It was a slave contract, but he edited the condition as he approached The Demon. They needed to be closer to form a Companion Pact.

He threw the scroll in front of The Demon as he landed a meter away from The Demon. He was prepared to initiate the Companion Pact. As he was about to place his hand on her head, the gauze in her eyes fell off.

At that moment, The Demon made her move as well, aiming for the body. She was confident that her sword would hit Tang Shaoyang in this distance. But then she saw a smile on Tang Shaoyang’s face.

“I know you will do this!” He caught the sword with his hand. He came prepared, having his hands covered in Chaos Energy. The sword could not cut his hand like before with the protective barrier.

Nine Heavenly Gate: Heavenly Azure Dragon Force

The Azure Dragon force flared out as an image of an Azure dragon formed behind him. There was a little difference in the projection. Some of the scales were no longer azure, but black. The harmonization with Chaos Energy slowly changed The Azure Dragon. Something that Tang Shaoyang had not yet realized.

Then he followed with Heavenly Crushing Grasp, breaking the sword into pieces. The Demon screamed for the first time. Her scream echoed in this frozen hall.

Tang Shaoyang raised his knee, hitting The Demon’s chin, pushing her up in the air. At that moment, he thought of a skill that he had not used recently, Thousand Blast. The skill that worked with a weapon.

But a wild thought appeared in his head, ‘What if he used the skill with his fist? Will it work?’ It was wild to try something in a fight where his life might be on the line. Of course, it was quite safe because he was on the advantage.

Using The Heavenly Azure Dragon Force, he activated the skill. His hands blurred, moving forward to punch The Demon. In those two seconds, he hit The Demon many times. He did not know the exact number, but it was far less than a thousand.

While it worked, it did not work perfectly as he thought. He thought of sending a thousand hits.

Boom!

The Demon crashed into the wall again. Her body planted on the wall and stopped moving. However, there was no notification, meaning The Demon was still alive.

“You killed her!” Avyn immediately came over after. With that last strike, it was decided who was the winner. Ths chapter is updated by novl(ꜰ)ire.et

Tang Shaoyang shook his head, “Nope. She is still alive. There’s no notification.” Just as he finished his words, a notification rang in his head. He froze for a moment.

You have created a new technique part of The Nine Heavenly Gates!
