Chapter 373: The Second Layer of the Eternal Tower (Part 1) | Throne Of Seal [Trans]
Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 16, 2025
Here’s the translation of the Traditional Chinese text into English:
When the icy mist spewed from the blue skull staff landed on Long Haochen, he felt a chill throughout his body. The solar fire he emitted was being completely suppressed, and his movements noticeably slowed down. A chilling sensation from the depths of his heart instantly spread throughout his body, as if even his soul had been dulled by the icy mist.
However, this feeling only lasted for a moment before Lin Xin’s Heartfire Flame blocked in front of him. When the icy mist came into contact with the Heartfire Flame, a strange “puff puff” sound was emitted. The Heartfire Flame steadily weakened, while the icy mist quickly dissipated.
Undoubtedly, what the skull released was no ordinary icy mist, but Lin Xin’s Heartfire Flame was also no ordinary flame. When they offset each other, Lin Xin’s Heartfire Flame gained the upper hand. Of course, this was also because Long Haochen’s solar fire had already weakened the skull’s offensive.
The soul fire within the blue skull’s eye sockets flickered slightly. The staff in its hand transformed into a mysterious trajectory in the air. The low chanting was unintelligible, but a crystalline blue ice flower floated out from its staff. The speed at which this ice flower flew seemed slow, but Long Haochen suddenly felt the scenery in front of him become illusory. Then, everything around him turned ice blue.
From the perspective of others, Long Haochen’s body paused slightly. Then, he was completely enveloped by a huge ice flower.
What powerful magic.
At this moment, the members of the 64th Grade Commander Demon Hunt Squad naturally wouldn’t wait any longer and launched a full-scale attack on the blue skull.
Lin Xin’s Heartfire Flame was the first to land on the giant ice flower, attempting to melt it. Cai’er, Wang Yuanyuan, Sima Xian, and Han Yu all charged towards the blue skull simultaneously. Their actions were extremely coordinated. The four of them charged forward separately. Although it couldn’t be said that they were coming from four directions, they tried to create as much distance as possible so that the blue skull couldn’t concentrate its attacks.
Chen Ying’er was already sitting on the ground, holding her crystal ball in both hands and silently chanting a spell. At her chest, two strange orbs of light, one gold and one silver, quietly emerged, like two flames circling around her crystal ball. With each rotation, the spiritual power fluctuations around Chen Ying’er’s body would increase by several folds. In the center of her forehead, a thin white line quietly appeared, faintly emitting a white glow outward.
Faced with the all-out attack from the group, the blue skull didn’t retreat any further. It suddenly slammed the staff in its hand onto the ground.
“Boom—”
Amidst the violent roar, the giant ice flower that had frozen Long Haochen actually exploded so abruptly. The tyrannical explosive force carried countless shards of ice that scattered everywhere. These shattered ice not only enveloped the entire first-floor passageway but also stirred up a large surge of air. Even with everyone’s cultivation, their momentum was abruptly halted.
Cai’er’s dark gold daggers transformed into countless points of light in the air. Every thrust would pierce through a piece of solid ice, but her gaze was fixed on Long Haochen’s direction.
Not only her, but Wang Yuanyuan, Sima Xian, and Han Yu were all the same. The ice flower’s explosion was so powerful, would it even…Long Haochen was fine, at least on the surface, he was intact. However, the golden-red flames that had been rising from his body and the Heartfire Flame that Lin Xin had added to him had completely extinguished. His face also looked somewhat pale, and a layer of frost was clearly visible on his body.
Thick cold air permeated the passage, and everyone clearly felt the stiffness of their bodies. Keep in mind that their external spiritual power had greatly improved after being immersed in the dragon crystal-based medicinal liquid. Even if they hadn’t fully absorbed the medicinal effects, at least their external spiritual power had exceeded 3,000. Even so, they felt their hands and feet stiff.
Seventh rank. Without a doubt, this blue skull’s cultivation was at least at the seventh rank. Moreover, its control over magic, like the red skull’s ancient martial skills, could be described as perfect.
A clear phoenix cry resounded at this moment. Blazing Heartfire Flame instantly rose, and the searing temperature quickly dissolved the coldness in the air. At the same time, the Blue Flame Phoenix had soared into the sky, passing over the crowd, and headed straight for the blue skull.
Lin Xin no longer cared about the spiritual furnace’s backlash. This blue skull was so powerful that all of his companions were being stalled by it. If it continued to attack, it would be difficult for them to pass this level.
The seven members of the 64th Grade Commander Demon Hunt Squad already had perfect coordination. Han Yu raised the gold-red legendary heavy sword in his hand and roared loudly. A strong gold-red color instantly dyed his entire body. It wasn’t fire, but a pure color change. Even his eyes were rendered gold-red. The stiffness of his body was instantly dispelled. Dragging a gold-red light and shadow, he charged straight towards the blue skull.
Sima Xian turned his body sideways and stood in front of Long Haochen. His Ball of Great Light had finally completed its reconstruction a month ago and was now held in his hand.
Compared to before, the size of the Ball of Great Light hadn’t changed much, but it had turned dark gold, with a faint aura of ferocity constantly spreading out. The originally Radiance-grade Ball of Great Light had successfully upgraded to the legendary level after being reconstructed. Moreover, if Sima Xian’s external spiritual power hadn’t been enhanced by the dragon crystal, he wouldn’t be able to use this terrifying equipment at all.
Amidst the silver light, Wang Yuanyuan disappeared into thin air, while Cai’er also vanished into the air in an instant.
Four people attacking, one person protecting Long Haochen – this was true coordination.
Facing the Blue Flame Phoenix, the blue skull was finally not so calm. The chanting of the spell clearly became hurried. He pointed the staff in his hand towards the ground. With three ear-piercing hums of “tseng, tseng, tseng,” three huge ice crystals with a diameter of one meter suddenly erupted from the ground, intersecting as they crashed towards the Blue Flame Phoenix. At the same time, a layer of ice-blue light instantly spread out from the blue skull, forming a transparent blue light shield.

Boom – the three thick ice crystals shattered simultaneously. The cold air that had permeated the tunnel also disappeared in an instant. Lin Xin’s Blue Flame Phoenix’s attack power was indeed terrifying, and the intensity of the Heartfire Flame was clearly higher than the blue skull’s ice. However, the main difference between the two sides was in spiritual power. The Blue Flame Phoenix ultimately failed to continue forward. With a low phoenix cry, it turned around and flew back towards Lin Xin.
A silver light flashed. Wang Yuanyuan was the first to attack. The Gigantic Divine Shield came out like a mountain-splitting axe, relying on the effect of the Space Gate Spiritual Stove, Wang Yuanyuan’s attack arrived almost instantly, slamming heavily on the blue skull’s light shield.
The Emptiness Silver Crystal obtained at the auction finally yielded two pieces of crystal that Wang Yuanyuan could embed, but she could only attach one piece at the moment, otherwise, it would exceed the range she could use. Nevertheless, after adding a piece of Emptiness Silver Crystal, the Gigantic Divine Shield directly advanced to the legendary level.
As this shield was swung, a gigantic and terrifying silver figure faintly flashed behind Wang Yuanyuan. Amidst the violent roar, the blue shield shattered in response.
However, the blue skull was also remarkable. In such an unfavorable situation, it suddenly lowered its body, like skating, and charged sideways close to the ground. Relying on the buffer brought by the shield’s obstruction, it dodged Wang Yuanyuan’s axe attack. At the same time, a circle of pure white ice rings suddenly spread out, forcibly pushing Wang Yuanyuan away.
At this time, Han Yu had also arrived. With his entire body gold-red, he seemed to have entered a special state. The crimson-golden heavy sword in his hand slashed out wildly, like a gold-red hurricane sweeping towards the blue skull.
“Squeak—” A shrill cry came from the blue skull’s mouth, and an ice wall instantly blocked Han Yu’s path. However, in the next instant, the ice wall turned into fragments under Han Yu’s gold-red greatsword.
A circle of white ice rings appeared under Han Yu’s feet and exploded instantly. The tyrannical freezing air swept over his body. However, Han Yu, covered in crimson-golden color, seemed to have entered an invincible state. He ignored the freezing air’s erosion of his body, and the heavy sword still slashed towards the blue skull.
The blue skull was finally at its wits’ end. The soul fire within its eye sockets fluctuated violently. It raised the staff in its hand to block, and at the same time, a layer of thick ice armor instantly covered its body.
Having powerful magic abilities did not give this blue skull the same powerful close-combat ability as the red skull. Although it had ice armor for defense, it was still sent flying by Han Yu’s sword, and even the staff was split in two. More frightening was that the crimson light on Han Yu’s heavy sword had a special stickiness. The blue skull paused for a moment when it was knocked away.
Next was Han Yu’s performance time. The blood-red heavy sword flew up and down. Every sword strike would cover the red skull with a terrifying red layer. The ice armor on its body only lasted for three strikes before it shattered.
Han Yu’s final sword directly entered from the blue skull’s shoulder position, splitting its body in half.
Cai’er, hidden in the dark, did not take action. Since Han Yu had already completed the absolute kill on the blue skull, she naturally did not need to take action.
Long Haochen had also gradually recovered from the previous coldness, but his face was still a little pale. The strike that the blue skull landed on him was quite terrifying. Fortunately, he had the Light Sacred Fire brought by Ya Ting, as well as the blessing of the solar fire and Heartfire Flame, plus the Holy Light Body Protection attached to the Glorious Holy Armor, which offset most of the explosive force. Even so, Long Haochen still spent nearly twenty seconds to force out all the cold.
The entire battle process did not last long, but it was not easy to defeat this blue skull. You know, in the real world, Long Haochen alone could single-handedly challenge a seventh-rank powerhouse. But just now they gathered almost all their strength to defeat this blue skull. If it weren’t for Lin Xin’s Blue Flame Phoenix greatly weakening the blue skull’s strength, it would have been even more difficult for them to win this victory.
