11: Long Xingyu talks about the way of the divine seal, the inner talk of the demon god

Chapter 11: Long Xingyu recounts the path of Divine Seals; Demon Gods discuss internally.

The moment Long Xingyu sensed Han Zhige's cultivation, he immediately asked,

“Zhige, how old are you exactly this year?”

“Fifty-three or fifty-four.” Han Zhige answered directly; he was currently fifty-three or fifty-four years old.

Hearing this, Long Xingyu was slightly moved.

A peak Eighth Rank at fifty-three or fifty-four years old—didn't that mean Han Zhige had the potential for Divine Seals?

Well, putting aside Innate Inner Spiritual Power, the selection for a god seal throne also considers the age at which one reaches Ninth Rank. The younger the age, the greater the possibility of gaining the god seal throne's recognition.

Generally speaking, for those who reach Ninth Rank over sixty years old, unless they encounter a great opportunity, the chances of being recognized by a god seal throne are extremely small. At least, there haven't been many such examples in the past six thousand years.

However, for those under sixty, the likelihood of being accepted by a god seal throne increases significantly. Not to mention, Han Zhige is currently only fifty-three or fifty-four, not even past the critical age of fifty-five.

If he can break through to Ninth Rank early, then the possibility of achieving a Divine Seal is at least seventy percent.

Currently, with three god seal thrones already having masters, it can be said to be a prosperous era for the Knight Temple. If all five god seal thrones can find masters, and then in the future, when Long Haochen grasps the Throne of the God of Doomsday and Slaughter, that would be six god seal thrones all present.

This is an unprecedented golden age, a wonderful thing for any generation's Knight Temple Temple Master!

Long Xingyu intends to achieve this. Coincidentally, the Alliance Master of the Temple Alliance competition five years from now could also benefit from this, and having one more Knight Temple Temple Master could become Long Xingyu's right-hand man!

Then, he would lend Han Zhige a hand!

Thinking this, Long Xingyu nodded and said, “Not bad. Next, you must be preparing to seclude yourself and break through to Ninth Rank, right?”

Han Zhige was stunned upon hearing this.

He hadn't expected Long Xingyu to ask him this question. Similarly, because Long Xingyu asked this question, Han Zhige understood Long Xingyu's intention; he wasn't a fool.

“Brother Xingyu, please impart to me the path of Ninth Rank!” Han Zhige immediately performed a Disciple's Knight's Salute, showing a look of eagerness for knowledge.

“The path of Ninth Rank lies in the spiritual elixir, and the path of the spiritual elixir lies in the spiritual apertures and spiritual qi,” Long Xingyu slowly began to explain.

That was everything Han Zhige needed.

Initially, He Jun had also smiled, thinking Long Xingyu's actions were excellent. But as he continued to listen, he gradually became wide-eyed with astonishment.

Long Xingyu truly lived up to his reputation as a Ninth Rank Fourth Level powerhouse. Even He Jun, a Holy Knight, benefited greatly from this path of Ninth Rank.

This path, being simple and profound, didn't take too long to explain and soon concluded. Yet, Han Zhige showed a look of profound benefit and great joy. He even thought it was far better than his cultivation over the past fifty years!

The previous bottleneck within him also felt like it was on the verge of breaking through at this moment, a truly marvelous sensation.

“Thank you, Brother Xingyu. I will return immediately to seclude myself and cultivate!”

“I will strive to reach Ninth Rank early and attain a Divine Seal!”

Han Zhige was overjoyed. He immediately saluted Long Xingyu, then turned and left. He planned to seize the opportunity, quickly improve himself to the Ninth Rank level, and then go to the Knight Temple's ancestral land to gain the recognition of a god seal throne!

After he left, He Jun couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh: “Starry-Sky, your understanding of the Ninth Rank path is truly profound.”

“Even I feel an improvement in my comprehension of Ninth Rank. No wonder you were able to reach Ninth Rank Fourth Level and gain the recognition of the Throne of the God of Doom and Slaughter when you first entered Ninth Rank!”

“Then I congratulate you on reaching Ninth Rank Second Level and becoming a Domain-level powerhouse soon,” Long Xingyu congratulated him.

“It's not that simple. Your father, Long Tianyin, is only Ninth Rank Second Level right now; I'm not as good as he is.” He Jun shook his head, but didn't dwell on this for too long, as he indeed had gained insights into the Ninth Rank path. He immediately bid farewell to Long Xingyu and headed towards his residence, intending to seclude himself for cultivation.

Seeing this, Long Xingyu didn't try to keep him. He simply sat down cross-legged.

He entered a state of cultivation.

Yulong Pass must have a Divine Seal Knight stationed there, but Divine Knight of Defense and Command Yang Haohan needed to guard Holy City, so he couldn't return to Yulong Pass. Long Xingyu could only choose to wait for Long Tianyin's return before he could go to Odin Town.

Upon learning of the demon invasion, Long Tianyin had immediately rushed back, a journey of roughly one day.

Demon Capital Heart City.

At this moment, the Demon God Emperor sat high upon his throne, with two black dragons constantly circling around him.

Although his face was extremely handsome, like a young man, he was already over seven hundred years old. Yet, he exuded an undeniable, unyielding dominance. Even the Demon Gods who were incredibly rampant and powerful in the outside world seemed like mere specks before him, daring not to act presumptuously.

This was the terror of the First Demon God, Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu!

With Feng Xiu present, the demon race remained stable!

Before him were three Demon Gods: the Fourth Pillar Netherworld Demon God Saminegina, the Sixth Bear Demon God Oliver, and the Seventh Berserker Demon God A'nan.

At this moment, A'nan stood before the Demon God Emperor and asked, “Your Majesty, Long Xingyu has now broken through to Ninth Rank Fourth Level; it is precisely the time for battle. Why did you obstruct it?!”

His attitude was not good.

Everyone who heard this immediately panicked.

Only Saminegina reacted in time, saying, “That was not His Majesty's doing, but my use of His Majesty's remaining power to deter him. Otherwise, if I had gone, you certainly wouldn't have agreed to leave.”

“It was you?” A'nan was stunned and roared, “Saminegina, how dare you!”

With that, layers of blood-red energy surged from his body. He intended to fight Saminegina, because anyone who dared to disrupt his battle, he would fight them first.

Saminegina also grew angry. Layers of netherworld energy immediately erupted from him, ready to meet the challenge. He was skilled in strategy, but that didn't mean he lacked any spirit or would allow A'nan, who was inferior to him, to challenge him so openly.

Upon hearing A'nan's words, Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes. As his eyes opened, an extremely terrifying aura was released from his body—the absolute aura belonging to him, the First Demon God, the Heaven Defying Demon Dragon Emperor, Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu!

The moment his aura first erupted, the three Demon Gods immediately widened their eyes. An immense, overwhelming pressure bore down on them.

Instantly, whether it was the Netherworld Demon God, the Bear Demon God, or A'nan, all felt a considerable pressure appear upon them. In an instant, it crushed them, forcing them to their knees on the ground.

“Do you three take this Emperor for non-existent?”
