Chapter 455: The Demon Elite of the禦魔 Mountains (Middle) | Throne Of Seal [Trans]
Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 16, 2025
Here’s the translation of the provided Chinese content into English:
Han Yu’s eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Long Haochen meant. Clearly, if these people were moving outwards from the interior of the mountains, then it was likely they were sent by humans. If they were moving into the mountains, the possibility of them being demons was much greater. Humans wouldn’t establish defensive fortifications in such a peripheral area. Therefore, these suddenly appearing troops, whether human or demon, would be a surprise force.
The Evil Eye gently swung its four long tentacles and flew out. As a mental-type magical beast, its usefulness was sometimes even greater than that of higher-level magical beasts. It floated upwards, swaying towards the direction where they had previously discovered the tracks. If one observed carefully, they would notice a slightly distorted light emanating from the Evil Eye. This was its mental fluctuation. With this mental fluctuation present, any detection magic cast on it would be like falling into the air, unable to have any effect, especially those long-range detection spells.
The Evil Eye returned quickly, the entire scouting process only taking about a quarter of an hour. Returning to the group, without waiting for Han Yu to ask, the Evil Eye’s giant singular eye lit up with a strange silver-white light. Then, a beam of light was projected in front of everyone, and a scene naturally appeared.
Han Yu was surprised to see this. “Wow, you’ve evolved a new ability again. You can even store images; that’s amazing.”
The others didn’t have time to marvel at the Evil Eye’s abilities. They all fixed their eyes on the image. Immediately, everyone’s expression became solemn.
What appeared in the image were demons. They were silently crossing the mountains, climbing towards the interior of the Demon Suppressing Mountain Range.
It could be seen that among these demons, some floating in the air were releasing layers of distorted light waves. These were a very small demon race called Familiars. They were also of the mental type, but they couldn’t compare to the command-level Evil Eye. Their cultivation was around the fourth rank, capable of releasing mental energy similar to the Evil Eye’s shielding.
Because the Evil Eye’s cultivation surpassed theirs, and it was also a mental-type magical beast, it was able to clearly sense their presence earlier.
There were at least thirty Familiars. These creatures, with their hideous appearance and bodies only the size of human infants, released mental fluctuations that covered the entire demon army.
The number of demons in this army wasn’t very large, only about five thousand. However, based on Long Haochen’s understanding of the demons, this was definitely an elite force.
In the sky, besides the Familiars, there were also six Spore Demons with sharp mouths, thick skin, and hollow stomachs. Although Spore Demons didn’t have much actual combat ability, Long Haochen and his team had personally witnessed their restrictive abilities. Back then, Tian Qing and his King-level Demon Hunt Squad had almost been surrounded and killed by Yak Demons due to the mucus sprayed by the Spore Demons.
Among the ground forces, at the forefront were about a thousand Berserker Demons. Through the images captured by the Evil Eye, it could be seen that these thousand Berserker Demons were definitely the elite among Berserker Demons. Among them, there were over a hundred Crimson Blood Berserker Demons leading the way, each Crimson Blood Berserker Demon commanding nine elite Berserker Demons.
Crimson Blood Berserker Demons had at least a sixth-rank strength, and some of the stronger ones could even reach the seventh rank. And those elite Berserker Demons were probably around the fifth rank.
It could be said that the Berserker Demon race had definitely sent out their elites. The total number of Crimson Blood Berserker Demons in the entire Berserker Demon race wouldn’t exceed two hundred. Their combat power on the ground wasn’t just powerful, it was also fearless. The Temple Alliance generally liked to describe the Berserker Demon race as demonic fanatics, which showed how formidable Berserker Demons were in the war between humans and demons.
Following the thousand Berserker Demons, were the real main force of this elite demon army, first five hundred Bear Demons. Bear Demons were large, incredibly strong, and had thick skin. Even the most ordinary Bear Demon had a sixth-rank cultivation. For an army, if it could be equipped with Bear Demons in an organized way, it would be like adding a heavy shield to the entire army.
After the Bear Demons, there were five hundred demons that Long Haochen and his team had never encountered before. These demons all emitted specks of starlight, appearing humanoid. But upon closer inspection, it could be seen that their bodies were suspended in mid-air, floating forward without their feet touching the ground. They wore cloaks and each held a staff that also shimmered with starlight.
“What race is this?” Wang Yuanyuan asked in confusion, “It shouldn’t be the Star Demons, right? Star Demons are dressed in orange and are easy to identify.”
Long Haochen said with a solemn expression: “This should be the Hell Demons who are good at dark magic. Among the demons who only use magic, the strongest are two races. One is naturally the Star Demon race, which is known as the strongest magic race of the demons. With the Great Prophecy, the status of the Star Demon race in the demons has never been shaken. However, there is another powerful demon race that uses magic, and that is the Hell Demon race. The Hell Demon race is divided into two branches, one is the Hell Demon, and the other is the Hell Blood Demon. Among them, the Hell Demon is a pure magic race, which is what we see in front of us. Their patriarch is the fifth pillar demon god of today’s demons, the Hell Demon God Marbas, who also has a lofty status in the demons. The demons who are really in charge, in addition to the Demon God Emperor, are actually the Moon Demon God Agares, the Star Demon God Vassago, the Necromancer Demon God Samigina and this Hell Demon God Marbas. I didn’t expect this army to have even Hell Demons, and as many as five hundred. They are at least sixth-rank or above, and there must be even more powerful ones leading the team.”
One thousand Berserker Demons, five hundred Bear Demons, five hundred Hell Demons, and the remaining three thousand were all Greater Demons. And the commander of this army was also a demon, a powerful demon over eight meters tall with blood-red wings on his back. When the Evil Eye’s image showed this powerful demon, the image only flashed by before ending completely. Clearly, the Evil Eye was afraid of its observation being discovered by this powerful demon.

“That, could it be a Demon King-level demon race?” Han Yu gasped.
Long Haochen nodded silently, “It should be right. Legend has it that the Necromancer Demon God Samigina has four demon kings under his command, or it is said that there are six demon kings, all of whom are ninth-rank powerhouses, and they are brothers with the Necromancer Demon God and Demon Lord Samigina. This demon army is so terrifying, I don’t know if our luck is good or bad.”
Everyone could naturally understand the meaning in Long Haochen’s words. Good luck was naturally because they discovered this demon army. Now that they had discovered the other party, they would always have a chance to warn the Temple Alliance. But how could they warn them? Facing such an elite demon legion that made them feel strongly powerless, what could they do? The danger was conceivable. This danger was even far greater than what they had encountered in the gloomy swamp.
The greatest danger in the gloomy swamp came from uncertainty, while the demons in front of them were a truly crushing force. Let alone them, even a title-level demon hunt squad would definitely not directly confront such a powerful and terrifying demon army here.
With the power of the demons, I am afraid that they can only take out ten elite teams of this level at most. This is a powerful demon with a total of 5,000 demons, and they have remote and close combat! Even if their equipment is far less than that of humans, their individual strength is terrifying. An army of 5,000 with an average cultivation base of more than the sixth rank, I am afraid that humans cannot even gather two of them.
Lin Xin frowned, “Are they going to launch a surprise attack deep into the alliance? If such a demon army enters the alliance, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
Long Haochen nodded silently.
Han Yu said to Long Haochen: “Captain, let me send a message. They are an army moving forward, and they have to avoid being discovered. It must be faster for me to go alone. With the Evil Eye, and the Evil Eye’s mental power shield, I can definitely cross the mountains in front of them and go to the Exorcism Pass for help. At least, I can notify our guards in the Demon Suppressing Mountain Range in advance. I believe they also have a way to notify the Exorcism Pass.”
Long Haochen narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a while, and then said: “Okay, then thank you, be careful in everything. We will try our best to buy you time.” Such a powerful demon army has entered the Demon Suppressing Mountain Range, and now there is no time to delay, the sooner the news is sent to the Exorcism Pass, the better for them. Therefore, he made a decisive decision and immediately agreed to Han Yu’s proposal.
Originally, Caier was the most suitable candidate to report the news. As an assassin, her ability to hide herself and her speed far exceeded Han Yu’s. However, the problem was that she was now amnesiac, and the uncertainty in all aspects was too great. Long Haochen really did not dare to let her do this. Let’s not talk about anything else, what if she got lost in the Demon Suppressing Mountain Range?
Han Yu summoned the Evil Eye and immediately went down the mountain along the other side. Before leaving, Lin Xin specially stuffed him with several bottles of elixirs to restore spiritual power. Obviously, Han Yu must now send the letter to the Exorcism Pass at the fastest speed he can reach. This will undoubtedly generate huge consumption for him.
Han Yu left, and Long Haochen led the others to squat in a circle, “The demon army is definitely not something we can fight head-on. Not only can’t we, but the guards on the Demon Suppressing Mountain Range can’t either. We are not good at military command and mobilization. Therefore, what we can do now is to let the Exorcism Pass know as soon as possible about the existence of this demon army. Han Yu needs time, and we must now work on both tracks. One is to expose the whereabouts of the demon army as much as possible, and the other is to drag their feet and reduce their speed to the Demon Suppressing Mountain Range. However, this will undoubtedly be very dangerous. Ying’er, stay here and don’t participate in this operation. Lin Xin, you too. You two are all magic professions, and it is difficult to escape. Caier stays to protect them two. Yuanyuan, Sima, you two go up to the high mountains on the left and right, respectively, and surpass this demon army from the side first. Then directly use your strength to open the mountain. Use the mountain stones to give them some blows. Make the momentum as big as possible, and come back immediately after completion to join Ying’er and Lin Xin. I am responsible for close-range harassment, to see if there is a chance to kill those familiars.”
