Chapter 498: Star King (II) | Throne Of Seal [Trans]
Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 17, 2025
No wonder, no wonder some people say the Starlight Unicorn is the best mount for a knight. As the Starlight Unicorn King, Star King’s amplification to himself is so powerful. At least, if it were Haoyue, Xiaoguang’s amplification to Long Haochen wouldn’t be as good as Star King’s. And Yating, although she is also pure light attribute, she is different from Star King. Yating is more comprehensive, while Star King is more of an overall amplification. The attack of the Starlight Unicorn is not its strength.
Riding on Star King, Long Haochen really felt like he had become a ninth-level knight. Unfortunately, he is still far from the level of a Divine Seal Knight. According to Long Haochen’s own estimation, he needs at least three years to have a chance to break through to the ninth level. Of course, his three years will definitely be blocked by the biggest barrier after the nine spiritual apertures.
In less than half an hour, Star King had brought Long Haochen to the light mist range of the Knight’s Sacred Mountain. It landed on the ground, and Long Haochen jumped off Star King’s back. After handing over with the elders of the Knight’s Sacred Mountain, he led Star King out of the Sacred Mountain range.
“Star King, we don’t have a contract. If I need you to hide, can you still return to the Knight’s Sacred Mountain?” Long Haochen asked Star King.
Star King shook his head and said, “That’s not possible. Even with a contract, it’s the same. However, we Starlight Unicorns have other ways.”
As it spoke, it raised its head, and a golden five-pointed star lit up on its forehead, and a rich golden light gathered towards the five-pointed star. With a flash of golden light, the five-pointed star flew out of its forehead and landed in Long Haochen’s hand.
“I can enter this golden star. After entering, I will enter a state of slumber and cultivation, waiting for your summons.”
Long Haochen suddenly understood and said, “So that’s it. That’s why you are called Starlight Unicorns.”
Star King said, “Whenever we need to slumber and cultivate, we will transform ourselves into a star and hide. Do you need me to hide now?”
Long Haochen shook his head, returned the golden star to Star King. Star King lowered its head, and the golden light merged into it, quickly disappearing on its forehead.
“Let’s go.” A cold light flashed from the depths of Long Haochen’s eyes. His journey for ten million merit points is about to begin.
He remounted Star King’s back, Star King took a few steps to run, spread its wings, and headed straight for the Yulong Pass under Long Haochen’s guidance.
“Star King, fly slower.” Yulong Pass was already in sight, but Long Haochen suddenly patted Star King’s back. Under the dark golden mask, a faint chill had flashed in his eyes.
Star King flew forward and turned its head to look at Long Haochen. The ripples on its horn used for communication appeared again, “Haochen, I feel danger approaching.”
Long Haochen smiled slightly and said, “That’s exactly what I’m waiting for, I’m afraid they won’t come.” In terms of mental perception, how could he be worse than Star King? He was returning so ostentatiously on Star King, it would be strange if he wasn’t noticed by the demons. However, Long Haochen was wearing a cloak, so the demons monitoring couldn’t see the Mithril Foundation Armor inside. But Star King is the Starlight Unicorn King, a ninth-level magical beast, equivalent to an eighth-level powerhouse. Riding it already proves Long Haochen’s identity.
It’s conceivable what the demons would do if they found a lone strong knight from the Knight’s Temple. Of course, Long Haochen wasn’t putting himself in danger. First of all, it was already very close to the Knight’s Temple. With his current cultivation and equipment, it wouldn’t be difficult to escape. More importantly, his spiritual power is so strong that even he himself finds it a little unbelievable. With the amplification of the Mithril Foundation Armor, his perception can even extend to a hundred miles, but the further the distance, the more blurred the feeling becomes.
In his perception, the strongest of the demons who are rushing to intercept him is at the eighth level.
Ten million merit points, it all starts here.
Star King flew forward unhurriedly. Although there was no contract between it and Long Haochen, so they couldn’t communicate telepathically, as the Starlight Unicorn King, it deserves to be called the best mount for a knight. Long Haochen only needs to give a slight instruction and Star King will immediately react, and it must be the same as what Long Haochen wanted to do in his mind. For example, if Long Haochen’s left leg tightens slightly, Star King will fly a little to the left, and even adjust the direction of the deflection according to the strength of Long Haochen’s leg. At the same time, soft light elements have begun to pour into Long Haochen’s body from Star King.
Long Haochen himself slowly closed his eyes, and the spiritual power in his body quickly rose. A rich light mist began to appear around his body, which was the Accumulation skill.
From afar, ten figures chased towards Long Haochen like lightning, and the air would become a little dim wherever they passed.
A lone Starlight Unicorn Knight? What good luck to run into such a thing? They had just received the news and immediately rushed over as quickly as possible.
The leading demon powerhouse had the characteristics of the demon race, with horns on his head, a blue face, and fangs. His tall body was more than three meters high, and a pair of huge wings constantly flapped behind him, propelling him to fly rapidly. In his right hand, he held a blood-colored heavy sword emitting black flames. The dark aura around his body was extremely dense, he was a Lord-level demon.
Behind him were all demons, but the other demons were not as strong as him, with cultivation levels of around the seventh level.
That’s right, this is a Demon Hunt Squad, a Demon Hunt Squad composed entirely of the demon race.
This time, the Undead Archdemon Saminagina personally sat outside Yulong Pass, naturally bringing his direct line demon army. In the Demon Hunt Squads, it is extremely rare for them to be composed entirely of one race. The one in front of them was actually temporarily assembled in recent times, specifically to target the situation at Yulong Pass.
As Yang Haohan said, it is impossible for the demons to surround Yulong Pass. The demons simply don’t have so many strong people. Once Yulong Pass is surrounded, the troops will inevitably be dispersed, and they cannot afford to be defeated one by one by the Knight’s Temple.
Therefore, the Undead Archdemon Saminagina formulated a strategy of frontal strong attack and lateral monitoring. Once a large number of human reinforcements arrive from the rear, he also has the ability to dispatch a certain number of troops to intercept and interfere.
However, Saminagina did not expect that the supplies stored in Yulong Pass would be so abundant. This Holy War has been going on for more than a year and a half, but the defense of Yulong Pass is still impregnable.
And this Demon Hunt Squad in front of them is specifically targeting the scouts sent out by Yulong Pass. Even if they don’t need supplies, Yulong Pass still has to contact the Temple Alliance, right? Then they must send out scouts. The demons have divided a part of the strong to form Demon Hunt Squads, specializing in attacking Yulong Pass scouts. They have actually succeeded a few times.
A Demon Hunt Squad composed entirely of demons may not be as perfect as a multi-race team in terms of troop coordination, but they can be faster, react more timely, and completely obey the orders of the Undead Archdemon Saminagina.
“Star King, accelerate.” When this team of demons appeared in Long Haochen’s sight, he immediately gave Star King the order to speed up.
The faint golden mist floating around Long Haochen’s body became thin as Star King sped up. If you didn’t look carefully, you wouldn’t notice it at all. Moreover, when Star King is flying rapidly, the golden six-pointed star under it will automatically generate a layer of golden light cover that sweeps upwards, which also perfectly helps Long Haochen to cover up the Accumulation.
The Demon Lord found that Long Haochen was speeding up to run, and immediately grinned, his wings flapped violently behind him, and the black light on his body shone brightly, spraying backwards like black light flames. He didn’t hesitate to expend spiritual power to accelerate with all his strength, and rushed towards Long Haochen first. The other demons following behind him were naturally a step behind because of the difference in strength.
Long Haochen slowly opened his eyes. At this time, his eyes were as clear as when he had just woken up from deep meditation, but there was a chill that was not there before.
Star King’s flying speed is getting faster and faster, and it is vaguely carrying a bit of illusory feeling. Even if it is carrying Long Haochen on its back, the flying speed is not inferior to the Demon Lord who is accelerating with all his strength. The two sides maintained a certain distance and headed towards Yulong Pass.
Finding that his speed was a little insufficient, the Demon Lord suddenly became anxious, and slammed his left palm, which was not holding the heavy sword, towards his body. A group of dark red light suddenly erupted, causing a strong bang in the air, and the powerful reverse thrust instantly increased his speed again.
His way of using attacks to increase his speed obviously consumes a lot of spiritual power, and it cannot last too long, but the advantage is that he can increase his speed a little more in the extreme.
Although this Demon Lord does not yet know Long Haochen’s cultivation level, he can see from the magnificent Starlight Unicorn King that this is at least a seventh-level human knight. Killing such a knight is a considerable feat, not to mention the Starlight Unicorn. The demon race lacks food the most. Although they hate the light attribute, they like to eat light attribute magical beasts very much. The meat of light attribute magical beasts is the most tender.
Long Haochen’s legs tightened slightly, and his body leaned back slightly. Star King immediately understood what he meant, and the frequency of flapping its wings quietly decreased a bit. Its body turned to one side, drawing a beautiful arc and flying to a higher sky.
This arc was drawn very large. The Demon Lord behind him was getting closer and closer, but under the clever guidance of this arc, the seventh-level demons behind him did not narrow the distance between them.
“Swish–” Star King’s wings made a sound in the air that was almost cutting through the air. Its magnificent body had already turned around in the arc, and it was facing the Demon Lord head-on.
