Andariel and Cydaea were both trapped in the Demon Cleansing Tower. If it werenât for his bamboo
forest, they wouldâve been dead long ago. If they left this forest, their bodies and souls would be
shredded by the towerâs frequent gusts of astral wind, which were as sharp as a knife.
Hence, that was exactly why they wanted to take over Jamie and Jadeâs bodies just now in order to
fight the astral wind. Yet, the circumstances were different now with the appearance of the Xavion
Sword. As slaves to the sword, they could both hide within it.

Howeverâ¦
âSwordmaster, we demons can only enter this tower, we canât leave it. But as the saying goes, heaven
never bars oneâs way. Youâre a human, so you naturally do not practice the ways of demons.â
âSince this tower was created by God and followed the Path of God, there is a safe trail for humans to
follow, but⦠We have no idea where it is.â
âWeâd thought that youâd opened the entrance by yourself just now, and that youâd have the Ancient
Divinityâs permit with you and know where the trail is.â
âBut it seems like Andariel had underestimated the power of your formation. To think that it could create
an entrance by force without the help of the permit!â
âBut it seems like Andariel had underestimated the power of your formation. To think that it could create

âSwordmaster, youâre the best at formations in this world.â Andariel took the chance to compliment
Jamie.

Jamie shook his head gently. âYou really flatter me. The level of my formations is nothing compared to
the real experts. Besides, I was taught by others too.â
Jamie
Alex
Jade said, âSo what youâre saying is, you guys donât know the way out either.â
Cydaea answered, âThatâs correct.â
Things were rather difficult now.
Jamie frowned. He might as well be a blind man in this tower. He had no idea where the formation of
this tower and where its core were. Heâd just stumbled his way here by luck, and he couldnât even
recognize his directions.
Jamie
Alex
However, he had an advantage, which was the Ancestral Bodhi Tree.
The Ancestral Bodhi Tree could break through spaces, allowing them to teleport instantly to another
place. With the sudden idea in mind, he immediately asked Ancestor Bodhi, who was in his mind
palace, about it.
Fortunately, Jamieâs mind palace wasnât blocked out by the laws of this placeâ¦
Jamie
Alex
Nonetheless, the mind palace belonged to the spiritual part of a person. It communicated directly with a
personâs soul and mind. Tougher circumstances wouldnât block it out either, as no human would be able
to survive without it if that were to happen.
The mind palace was the core of a human.
Losing oneâs mind palace was worse than losing the heart or brain, and it would only result in one
thing, instant death.
To Jamieâs surprise, Ancestor Bodhi shook his head and said, âIâve heard about the Demon Cleansing
Tower before. It used to be one of the seven gourds of innate gourd vine. It was the red gourd, then
refined into a Demon Vase.â
Jamie
Alex
âBut it was destroyed afterward. Rumors said that itâd been split into half by Thor. Nonetheless, it was
still an innate treasure. Even if it had been shattered, it was still rare. So, the Ancient Divinity took over
and refined it into the Demon Cleansing Tower.â
Jamie hadnât thought that Ancestor Bodhi would know such a story.
Jamie
Alex
âThe seven gourds on the innate gourd vine⦠Isnât that like the gourd brothers in the show, Little
Brother?â
Needless to say, these seven gourds were far more powerful than the gourd brothers.
Ancestor Bodhi said, âWithin the red gourd, another space that can kill demons is formed individually.
Even the Ancestral Bodhi Tree canât penetrate the innate walls of this space⦠Unless you find the
Heavenâs Mark of the tower. â
âWhat is the Heavenâs Mark?â
âIt is the scar left by Thorâs ax.â
Jamie understood what Ancestor Bodhi meant now.
