Throne of Seals: Underworld Priest, Demon Nightmare

Chapter 68 Life and Light, The Necromancer Supreme?

Chu Zichen and his group of six instantly tensed up, their sharp eyes scanning the empty, deathly silent hall, trying to find the source of the sound.

Yet the sound seemed to be everywhere, yet nowhere to be found, blending into the tower walls filled with the aura of death.

"Children, you are very lucky to have come to our world of the dead."

The voice continued, carrying an ancient and ethereal quality.

"The Tower of Eternity is the culmination of my wisdom over a thousand years of life. As long as you move forward and overcome all the trials, the moment you finally reach the top, you will be able to fully inherit the mantle of me, the Necromancer Saint, the Slumbering Scourge, Elex. The undead will reappear in the world, and those hypocrites of the Glorious Church will sleep in death."

Necromancer! Glorious Church!
Apart from Chu Zichen, all the women who knew the history changed their expressions drastically.

These words struck them like a thunderclap!

Thirteen thousand years ago, humanity transitioned from the ancient era into a glorious age, experiencing a period of rapid development spanning seven thousand years. It was during these seven thousand years that humanity established its dominant position on the Holy Demon Continent.

However, during this glorious period, humanity suffered a catastrophe.

The culprit who brought about that catastrophe was the necromancer.

This catastrophe severely damaged humanity's vitality and even severed the lineage of countless powerful beings. This led to a situation where, after the arrival of the seventy-two demon gods, humanity's resistance was greatly insufficient, ushering in an inevitable dark age.

None of them expected that this tower was something left behind by a necromancer.

Although they didn't know the Necromancer Saint and the Sleeping Calamity Elex, they were almost certain that he must have been a legend in his time.

"Zichen, we..."

Cai'er and the other women all turned their attention to Chu Zichen, unsure whether this discovery was a blessing or a curse.

Cai'er, in particular, inexplicably felt that her attributes were very close to those of the Eternal Tower, and the Reincarnation Furnace and Reincarnation Sword within her body also liked this place.

If she cultivates here, her cultivation efficiency will be greatly improved.

Chu Zichen took a deep breath; his mind was already clear.

He glanced around at his companions, each with a different expression, and spoke calmly and clearly:
"Since we're here, let's make the best of it. Now that we've discovered this Tower of Eternity, perhaps it's a special opportunity bestowed upon us by the times. The key is how we will use this power."

"Regardless of what the necromancers have done in the past, their power itself is neither good nor evil. The so-called good or evil is determined by the person who uses it, whether to use it to protect their homeland and fight against the demons, or to unleash a catastrophe and devastate the world."

His words were like a stabilizing force, instantly calming the women's minds.

They all nodded in agreement.

Throughout their journey, it was Chu Zichen who pulled them out of dire straits time and time again; his judgment was never wrong.

"Good! Well said! Hahahaha!" Electrolux seemed to have heard Chu Zichen's words as well, and his voice suddenly rose, filled with undisguised praise and ecstasy. "At such a young age, you have such wisdom and magnanimity, understand the essence of power, and are not bound by worldly prejudices! Children, it seems that you deserve this opportunity!"

The next moment, an invisible, mysterious wave, like a gentle stream of water, softly yet irresistibly caressed everyone's body.

"Hmm..." The light flame on Li Xin's body flickered slightly, and she felt extremely comfortable.

The silver light on Wang Yuanyuan's body shimmered slightly, as if it had formed a deeper connection with the space.

Li Xuefei felt that the breeze around her had become more compliant with her wishes.

Chen Ying'er felt a warm sensation in her body. Although she couldn't specifically sense any attribute, the fluctuation seemed to acknowledge her existence.

Cai'er's body trembled slightly. The aura of death and the power of reincarnation within her body seemed to have met their common origin, emitting a low murmur of resonance.

Chu Zichen's pure life force and radiant aura complemented each other, making him both holy and warm.

"Excellent! Excellent! What a match made in heaven!" Electrox's voice trembled with excitement. "One is fire-attribute, one is wind-attribute, one is spatial-attribute, and one is neutral-attribute. What's even more remarkable is... there's also a little girl with death attribute! She and Eternal Slumber are a match made in heaven!"

At this point, Electrolux's voice suddenly stopped, then burst into even greater joy, a joy that even carried a hint of disbelief: "And you... my child!" An invisible gaze seemed to pierce through space, locking onto Chu Zichen.

"Life! And light! And so pure! So vast! It's actually... the dual attributes of life and light!!"

Electrolux's voice trembled slightly with excitement:
"How fortunate I am! I am but a necromancer of the light attribute, while you are a supreme necromancer of both life and light attributes!"

After a moment of silence, Electrolux's voice rang out again, carrying a solemn and fateful declaration, its target Chu Zichen:

"My child, you are simply my most ideal successor! Your future potential may even surpass mine! Your life attribute can neutralize the erosion brought by pure death, so that necromancy is no longer a synonym for destruction, but leads to the righteous path of endless life and cyclical rebirth! The combination of life and light is enough to give birth to unprecedented pure necromancy power! You are the true heir I have been waiting for for countless years!"

Chu Zichen himself also showed a hint of surprise.

I never expected that my dual attributes of life and light would receive such high recognition from Electrolux.

Cai'er and the other women were even more surprised. They never expected that Electrox, as a necromancer, would actually be of the Light attribute.
Shouldn't necromancers be evil beings who deal with corpses and death, walking in the shadows?

"Child, would you like to become my disciple?" Electrox's tone was eager and impatient.

"I'm willing, teacher." Chu Zichen didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.

"Hahaha! Very well! Since you call me teacher, I'll give you a little gift first!"

Elekston burst into satisfied laughter. Before he finished speaking, a grayish-white light appeared before Chu Zichen's eyes. Upon closer inspection, it was a necklace with a skull pendant.

His voice suddenly became incredibly solemn: "My dear disciple, this is my token, the Eternal Melody. From this moment on, you are the successor to my will, the new master of the Eternal Sleep! This unparalleled legacy of the Necromancer is entrusted to you!"

"Yes!" Chu Zichen nodded solemnly.

After receiving the Eternal Melody, Chu Zichen could clearly feel the rich light elements contained within it surging into his limbs, internal organs, and even every tiny cell, like a celestial river flowing backwards!
The repulsive spirit furnace, the distraction control spirit furnace, and the light element spirit Yating within his body were all groaning happily in his chest. His spiritual power was also rapidly recovering and increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his cultivation level unsurprisingly broke through to the second or even third level of the sixth rank.

……

　Ye Lingyun unexpectedly transmigrated to the world of Divine Throne, where he was taken in and raised by the Assassin Temple from a young age, and was born with the Cloud Bat superpower lock.

　　With an innate spiritual power exceeding 90, he became the Child of Reincarnation of the Assassin's Temple, replacing Cai'er as the Holy Maiden of Reincarnation to undergo the Trial of Reincarnation.

　　Wielding the Sword of Reincarnation and possessing the Spirit Furnace of Reincarnation, Ye Lingyun became a favorite of the Underworld King and activated the Cloud Bat Armor. From then on, he embarked on a path of overcoming all obstacles to become a powerful figure.

　　Years later, when his peers were preparing to participate in the Demon Hunter Trials.

　　Ye Lingyun, however, has already taken deep root in the Demon battlefield, creating the Energy Gathering Cloud Bat Formation and setting out to build a unique Cloud Bat Legion.
　　The Battle of Exorcism Pass: When a million-strong demon army and three great demon gods besieged the city.

　　"Death Moon Tribulation!"

　　Ye Lingyun led the Cloud Bat Legion to a great victory over the Demon Clan, and his "Death Moon Calamity" swept through thousands of troops, making even the Demon God tremble with fear.

　　During the Battle of Zhennanguan, an eighth-tier Moon Demon infiltrated the city and wantonly slaughtered humans.

　　"Super Beast Armed Forces - Cloud Bat God!"

　　Ye Lingyun entered Super Beast Armed state, and the Cloud Bat Shield possessed the strongest defensive power of a super artifact, allowing him to crush all powerful enemies beyond his level.

　　……

　　Many years later, when the holy war between humans and demons broke out.

　　The Cloud Bat Legion launched a full-scale attack, wiping out the invincible God Emperor Legion of the Demon Race.

　　Ye Lingyun, whose spiritual power had already surpassed one million, suddenly summoned the Nebula Body to face the arrogant Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu:

　　"In the eyes of the strong, there is no place for the weak!"
