Qin Guan blinked. "I grew up in the deep mountains and know absolutely nothing about the outside world. This is also my first time entering the Ten Thousand Demon Tower. Hurry and tell me—just what is this tower's origin?"
"So that's how it is."
Liu Shang nodded gently. Looking at the space inside the tower, she said, "Cultivators over a thousand years old cannot enter. That is a rule set by the Mandate Temple. Beneath the Ten Thousand Demon Tower, an ancient Dao demon is sealed.

"But that Dao demon simply cannot be killed. It can only be suppressed and sealed. The Primordial Soul Stones are formed from demonic aura leaking out from the bottom of the tower, condensed together with the power of the seal.
"The reason the Mandate Temple does not permit cultivators over a thousand years old to enter is that their auras are too aged and will interfere with the rate at which Primordial Soul Stones condense."
