Chapter Seven, The Throne of the God of Doom and Slaughter

The invasion of the demon clan? At this moment, Bai Yue was also at the mountain top. Even though this place was some distance from Odin Town, she could clearly see the scene of Long Xingyu unleashing the Divine Seal Throne in the sky. Even the golden radiance could be seen from the distant Haoyue City, hundreds of miles away.

The white light is soft, yet it leaps along a unique energy fluctuation, imparting a sense of steadiness.

The surviving townsfolk of Odin Town have long since knelt down, worshipping the golden light in the sky that is gradually fading. They do not know who Long Xingyu is; in their eyes, that golden powerhouse who judged all the wolf-men is the true deity.

Incorporate it into your forget-me-not ring

Long Xingyu gently patted his shoulder, "Here, I am just a husband, a father"

Long Xingyu nodded and said: "The Spirit Furnace is the crucible of spiritual power. It is not a capability cultivated by us, but rather a treasure born from the wonders of nature. As knights, we have a variety of knightly skills to choose from; however, aside from a few self-developed skills that we create ourselves, the vast majority of skills can be cultivated once we reach a certain level of mastery. Yet, the Spirit Furnace is different. Almost every type of Spirit Furnace possesses its own unique characteristics, and even for the same Spirit Furnace, the effects produced by different individuals during cultivation can vary greatly."

Countless orange rays of light descended from the sky, as if they had eyes of their own, gently landing on each of the werewolves.

Long Xingyu pulled Long Haochen in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Haochen, before you leave, your father wants to teach you a few more things one last time"

A werewolf with golden hair, significantly more robust than his peers, almost shouted with a trembling voice: "This, this is the throne of the God of Doom and Slaughter"

The golden-haired werewolf is indeed resilient; despite his eyes being filled with despair and unwillingness, he did not yield

Gazing into the distance, Long Xingyu sighed and said: "It seems that the demon clan can no longer endure the silence. Haochen, remember this: the demon clan is powerful, but we must never yield. As knights, we must fight to protect our homeland until the last drop of blood is shed"

Long Haochen said somewhat absentmindedly: "What is it?"

The infusion of spiritual power made the light golden patterns on the Forget-Me-Not ring seem to come alive, as if they were flowing with a faint blue light. In a flash of brilliance, the book containing the secrets of the spiritual furnace was already absorbed within.

Long Xingyu's gaze sharpened, "Then you might as well die."

At the position on the chest of that figure, also above the backrest of the throne, the most striking feature is a golden-red diamond-shaped gem. Each facet of it is so sharp and prominent. The immense brilliance emanates largely from this gem.

Long Xingyu said softly: "A fledgling eagle, without leaving the protective wings of its parents, can never become the king of the skies soaring in the nine heavens. I originally expected to guide you for three years, but it seems now that it must come to an early end. I need to take your mother back to the Sanctuary Alliance to handle some matters, and then there is a promise to fulfill"

This seal ring contains six seals, within which I have sealed various powerful skills of the retribution paladin, encompassing nearly all from the fourth to the ninth tier. When your spiritual power reaches a certain level, you will be able to use it to break the seals inside, allowing you to learn these skills one by one

In a flash of golden light, another person appeared before Long Xingyu, who was seated on the throne; it was none other than the previously encountered golden-haired werewolf.

Even the most basic struggle could not be made, and one by one, the werewolves quietly vanished from this world, leaving not a trace behind, disappearing so simply and directly

The enormous throne rises to a height of ten zhang, with countless gemstones embedded in its tall backrest. Faintly, one can discern a figure resembling a statue on that backrest, exuding a sharp, imposing, and even terrifying aura of oppression.

Father and mother are about to leave, and although I cannot leave you any equipment, I have a gift that I have prepared for a long time to give to you

The moment the throne appeared, a golden beam of light descended upon Long Xingyu, enveloping both him and Long Haochen. The golden light expanded, causing Long Haochen to vanish, while Long Xingyu's body magnified several dozen times, slowly settling into the throne before him

The golden-red light transformed into a canopy, cascading down to the earth in the moment following the disappearance of the demon wolf. The people of Odin Town began to regain their ability to move. As long as there was breath in their bodies, they slowly rose to their feet in that warm golden-red light, their injuries healing at a visibly rapid pace. The flames in the areas that had caught fire had all been extinguished. The only unchangeable reality was the loss of those who had already died and the destruction of the houses.

At this moment, the shock in Long Haochen's heart had not diminished at all. "Dad, are you, are you a Divine Knight?" he asked, summoning his courage.

Long Xingyu nodded, "You should have heard what that demon wolf said just now. In the Knight's Sanctuary, I oversee judgment and trial. In the Sanctuary Alliance, I am also in charge of punishment."

"Dad, I don't want to be separated from you and Mom." Long Haochen suddenly hugged his father's waist, his eyes filled with reluctance

Long Xingyu lowered his head to look at him and said: "This does not include you."

What is your purpose in invading the southern region of the Temple Alliance?" Long Xingyu's cold voice was filled with undeniable authority

Long Xingyu gently touched Long Haochen's head, "Foolish child, if you always stay by your mother and me, then you will forever have a sense of reliance and concern in your heart. Moreover, even if you return with us to the Holy Temple Alliance, it is equally impossible for you to stay by my side. I have been away for several years, and there are too many matters awaiting my attention. I have made my decision regarding this matter. You must stay." I have been away for several years, and there are too many matters awaiting my attention. I have made my decision regarding this matter. You must stay."

The Temple Alliance is not suitable for you. If you accompany me there, you will likely never become a divine knight like me. Only by taking one step at a time and earning everything through your own efforts can you truly attain the glory of a knight

"Father, Father..." Looking at his father, Long Haochen's eyes were filled with a sparkling brilliance, a gaze of admiration, even a sense of faith emanating from his light golden eyes

Humanity rates the demon race similarly to the magical beasts. This golden-haired demon wolfman is at least a level 5 demon. However, in front of Long Xingyu, it appears as insignificant as a humble ant, with no possibility of struggle whatsoever. Aside from him, all the invading demon wolfmen have completely vanished.

Watching Long Haochen put away the booklet, Long Xingyu sighed and said: "Haochen, although Dad has many excellent pieces of equipment, I do not intend to leave them to you. Because any piece of weaponry or equipment can only be truly cherished when obtained through one's own efforts."

Do not cry. This is just a temporary farewell. Father hopes that by the next time we meet, you will have made great progress and will impress me.

In a flash of golden light, two individuals had already appeared at the summit of Odin Mountain

Long Haochen nodded gently. After he acquired inner spiritual power, Long Xingyu taught him how to activate the ring left to him by the mute girl.

Long Xingyu nodded and said seriously: "Of course it is possible. I achieved the Divine Seal Throne at the age of forty-seven, before I met your mother. As long as you are willing to work hard, I believe you will reach this step even earlier than I did"

"Dad, I don't want to be separated from you." Long Haochen's tears finally could not be held back.

That was neither the sacred light energy nor the spiritual power of Long Xingyu. As Long Xingyu slowly opened his palm, Long Haochen was astonished to see a sphere of white light in his father's hand. A small cauldron, only an inch tall with three legs and two ears, appeared in the center of Long Xingyu's palm

The shock from the scene just now was truly immense for him. After more than two years of cultivation, Long Haochen still had some confidence in himself, but at this moment, he realized that compared to his father, he was as insignificant as a speck of dust.

The golden-haired demon wolf was filled with despair; he could not fathom why such a powerful being would appear at the borders of the Holy Temple Alliance. For beings like them, even the thought of escape was impossible

Long Haochen was gradually attracted by the spirit furnace mentioned by Long Xingyu, "Dad, where can one obtain the spirit furnace?"

Long Haochen said with a face full of admiration: "Father, what exactly is the Throne of the Divine Seal? Is it possible for me to cultivate and become as powerful as you?"

This Forget-Me-Not ring is an extremely precious spatial ring, capable of storing approximately ten cubic meters of various items. Additionally, the ring is equipped with a defensive skill that, once activated, can release a light blue shield. As long as spiritual energy continues to be infused, this shield will persist. Moreover, its strength will increase according to the amount of spiritual energy. Long Xingyu has stated that this is a rather rare piece of magical jewelry.

Then he took out a book and handed it to Long Haochen, "This is my personal understanding of the Spirit Furnace and a detailed introduction to it. There is no time to guide you further. You must comprehend it on your own, do you understand"

Redemption

Ah? Long Haochen was taken aback, looking at his father in confusion

Long Haochen stood beside his father, yet at this moment, he found himself unable to utter a single word. Even though he had speculated about his father's strength hundreds of times, he could not have imagined that his father was a being akin to a deity.

As he spoke, Long Xingyu removed a black ring from his own hand and placed it on Long Haochen's right index finger. Just like the forget-me-not ring, this black ring shrank on its own to fit snugly against Long Haochen's finger

Long Xingyu said lightly: "Indeed, I preside over judgment and trial, answer my question."

The Throne of the God of Apocalypse and Slaughter, you, are you the Judgment and Trial Knight Long Xingyu of the Knight Templar

Bai Yue gently nodded and held onto Long Xingyu's large hand

Judgment

The enormous Dragon Star Yu slowly settled upon the magnificent throne, his cold gaze filled with boundless majesty. At the moment he sat down, the golden-red diamond gem that had been on the backrest suddenly appeared at the position of his chest, and the entire sky transformed into a golden-red hue.

Hmm. Long Haochen nodded vigorously in agreement. At this moment, in his heart, his father was no longer just a teacher; he could even be said to be a faith he admired. Without personal experience, it is impossible to imagine the immense power of the Throne of Divine Seal. The vast and ocean-like fluctuations of spiritual power, the world-destroying light of judgment, all left indelible marks in his heart

Long Xingyu held his son in his arms and sighed, "Haochen, being sentimental is both your strength and your weakness. Remember, there are no father or mother by your side anymore. From now on, you must only speak a third of your heart to others and not reveal everything completely"

Long Xingyu furrowed his brows and nodded, "It was merely a tentative attack. No true demon clan experts have appeared. It seems I must return to the alliance ahead of schedule"

Long Xingyu said: "Generally speaking, spirit furnaces can only be found in places where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth converges or in some ancient ruins. Among all professions, those who possess a spirit furnace are as rare as a needle in a haystack. This includes us knights. However, the spirit furnace is the goal pursued by all professions. Because even possessing a single spirit furnace will make us stronger than our peers of the same level."

The white rays of light emanate from the small white cauldron, soft and pulsating, possessing an allure that captivates the gaze.

Long Xingyu still looked the same as before, wearing a simple robe, with his black hair flowing and books in hand. When all the golden light faded away, he returned to the appearance of an ordinary person

Long Xingyu said in a deep voice: "Spirit Furnace"

In Odin Town, whether it is the rampaging demon werewolves or the indigenous people, all are rendered immobile under this immense pressure. The townspeople's eyes are filled with terror, while the eyes of the demon werewolves are filled with despair

Long Haochen's body trembled slightly as he fought to hold back his tears. However, Bai Yue had already run back to the wooden house in tears

The two words "icy cold" were uttered from Long Xingyu's mouth. An orange-red radiance burst forth from behind him, transforming into a massive orange-red lightsaber that hovered above his head

"Spirit Furnace?" Upon hearing these two words, Long Haochen couldn't help but shudder. He had followed his father in training for two and a half years and had heard Long Xingyu mention the Spirit Furnace more than once. However, all this time, Long Xingyu had never guided him in cultivating the abilities related to the Spirit Furnace.

Bai Yue looked at Long Xingyu, her eyes filled with a pleading expression

At the top of the backrest, there is a semi-circular bright red gemstone, resembling a half sun gazing down upon the earth. However, its radiance is a slightly dim orange-red, exuding a terrifying pressure as if the apocalypse were imminent

The golden light extinguished, and the golden-haired demon wolf also vanished in an instant. Long Xingyu sat atop the throne of the Apocalypse and the God of Slaughter, his eyes revealing a contemplative expression. After a moment, shrouded in golden light, he and his throne transformed into a golden meteor and disappeared without a trace

There are many types of spiritual furnaces. Currently, a total of seventy-four types of spiritual furnaces are known, each suitable for different professions. Among them, twenty-three are suitable for our knight profession. Some of these can also be shared with assassins and warriors

The gaze of the golden-haired werewolf suddenly became fierce, "Even if you are a Divine Seal Knight, what of it? The Demon God descends upon the earth, and the great Demon Gods will take revenge for me. Even in death, I will not tell you anything."

"Dad..." Long Haochen called out, but his eyes uncontrollably turned red.

On the broad seat, two lion-like figures are carved on either side, crouching and roaring, while countless exquisite patterns seem to flow down from the backrest, covering the throne.

As he spoke, Long Xingyu released his son, and with his right hand, he struck his own chest. Immediately, a strange white light emanated from his chest.

"Father, are we leaving here?" Long Haochen asked
