Having found a potential path to completing the celestial trial and escaping the ninth celestial trial before it was consumed by the spatial storm outside, Xuan Hao wasted no time as he burst through the sea of clouds above before reaching the massive treetops in search of a suitable demon beast to convince.
Luckily, it wasn't that difficult to find a suitable demon beast, as there was no lack of Celestial Immortal Realm demon beasts present throughout the demon beast kingdoms. The main problem would be the convincing part that would come after he severed the demon beast's connection to the underground lake pavilion.
In the worst-case scenario where he failed to convince the demon beast after cutting the connection, he would not just have to face a Celestial Immortal Realm demon beast, but potentially also a retaliation from the underground lake pavilion.
