Chapter 223: Desperation! Forbidden Spell! (Part 2) | Throne Of Seal [Trans]
Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 14, 2025
A low, deep chant began to resonate from Yue Ye’s mouth in the moonlit night. The scroll inside the wooden box slowly floated up, bathed in the glow of the purple moon in the sky. At this moment, she was no longer holy, but full of enchanting allure. Her long hair instantly changed from its original black to a bright purple.
Each chanted note that came from Yue Ye’s mouth was slow but firm, containing a special rhythm. All the elemental magic in the air became frantic, and even the blood within the bodies of the people of the Yue Ye Merchant Guild in the cart formation below seemed to be ignited.
“What is she doing?” Long Haochen turned his gaze to Lin Xin behind him.
Lin Xin’s face was full of shock. “She seems to be trying to activate the power of that scroll. It feels like her own cultivation isn’t much stronger than mine. But how could she possibly activate such a powerful scroll? That cauldron should be her spiritual furnace. The thing she put into the spiritual furnace seems to be a magic crystal of extremely high rank. Could it be that she’s using the power of this magic crystal to activate the scroll? She’s risking her life!”
Chen Ying’er also widened her eyes. “That scroll wouldn’t… wouldn’t be a forbidden spell, would it…”
On the Holy Demon Continent, all ninth-rank magic was collectively referred to as forbidden spells, taboo existences, destructive existences. On the battlefield, the greatest destructive power always came from magicians. Because they could summon the power of heaven and earth to unleash unparalleled power. The prerequisite was that their incantations could be completed.
Lin Xin murmured, “If that’s a forbidden spell, then that magic crystal from before is probably a tenth-level magic beast’s magic crystal! Both of these things are priceless. This woman is really crazy…”
The demon army on all sides clearly also saw that round of purple moon. Their originally slow, pressing advance suddenly changed. Their speed increased sharply, swarming in from all directions.
After pondering for a moment, Long Haochen suddenly looked up and said, “That Yue Ye Merchant Guild woman will need time to use the scroll. We don’t know its power. But if she completes this magic, it’s definitely something we can’t withstand. Change of plan. After the battle begins, we will get as close as possible to that woman. Protect her as she completes the magic. Also, her location should be the safest. We will act immediately when the close combat starts.”
The demon army surrounding them on all sides had already rushed within five hundred meters of the cart formation. The buzzing sound that had sounded before erupted again. Although each truck didn’t have the complete explosive power this time, when those bloody magic arrows sprayed out, they still exploded with powerful destructive force. Especially those thick magic arrows, almost every one of them could penetrate the bodies of dozens of Twin Blade Demons in the front ranks of the demon army.
Large clouds of blood mist exploded from all sides at the same time, causing the demon army’s forward momentum to suddenly halt.
At the same time, intense magical light began to shine within the inner circle of the cart formation. The sky suddenly turned red, and then, in an explosion of rich fire element, large swaths of fireballs rained down from the sky, slamming towards the demon army on all sides.
Long Haochen saw that those who were casting the magic were the magicians in the inner circle of the cart formation. There weren’t many of them, only thirty, and their cultivation was around the fifth rank, probably about the same as Lin Xin’s spiritual power level. But these magicians weren’t releasing magic based on their own cultivation.
Meteor Fire Rain, a sixth-rank spell. Released entirely with scrolls. Thirty Meteor Fire Rain scrolls, it was more like burning money than using magic. These kinds of magic scrolls cost at least ten thousand gold coins apiece. And were hard to find even with the money.
Lin Xin watched in stunned silence, “So rich, so, so rich. That’s three hundred thousand gold coins gone…”
The consumption of gold coins was great, but the effect was equally immediate. The scale formed by the thirty Meteor Fire Rains was too large. In an instant, the earth became a fiery hell. Amidst the violent roars, the foul smell of burning flesh filled the battlefield. One could see hideous demons being blown to pieces in the Meteor Fire Rain. The money from these thirty scrolls was not spent in vain. They almost instantly cleared out the Twin Blade Demon cannon fodder unit in front of the demon army surrounding them on all sides. Even many fourth and fifth-rank demons suffered some injuries. It completely curbed the demon army’s momentum.
Although the Twin Blade Demons were weak, they were numerous. More than a third of the more than forty thousand demon army was made up of them. Large swaths of Meteor Fire Rain bombarded out, and low-level demons simply couldn’t survive.
Those thirty magicians didn’t stop. At the same time as releasing the Meteor Fire Rain, they had each torn open another golden scroll and quickly chanted. When golden lights bloomed in the sky, these magicians all fell to the ground, meditating cross-legged.
Just releasing the scrolls had caused them such a huge consumption, which proved one thing: the scrolls were at least seventh-rank. Only by using scrolls that surpassed one’s own rank by at least two ranks would the caster’s spiritual power be greatly consumed.
Golden light patterns rippled in the air, then fell down, forming a huge golden light罩 that enveloped the entire cart formation. Only the purple light shot down by the purple moon above Yue Ye’s head easily passed through this golden light array. Yue Ye’s chant continued, without being disturbed in any way.
Long Haochen’s pupils contracted instantly. He wasn’t a magician, but he could use light-attribute magic. He had seen very clearly just now that those scrolls should be seventh-rank light-attribute magic: Holy Light Spirit Array. Only the combination of thirty Holy Light Spirit Arrays could form such a large area of defense. And the magic used by Yue Ye was full of dark aura, which was clearly a dark magic scroll. To use a dark magic scroll in light-attribute magic and not be affected, this was a typical example of magic rank suppression. It seemed that Lin Xin and Chen Ying’er were right. That was probably a forbidden spell-level magic scroll!

The demon army didn’t retreat because of the bombardment of the Meteor Fire Rain, but instead became even more fearless. Thousands of dark purple rays of light shot onto the golden light罩, creating ripples. These were the rays released by the Demon Eye Warlocks.
The real main force of the demon army had all surged up. The Demon Eye Warlocks launched ranged attacks from the rear, while the ones rushing in front were a type of humanoid demon. Their height was around 1.8 meters, and at first glance they looked very similar to humans, but their faces were long and narrow, and their eyes were a horrifying green. The ends of their arms were not human-like hands, but each had a conical spike. The spikes were as long as two feet. Between leaps, these humanoid demons were much more agile in both speed and strength than the Twin Blade Demons. Moreover, their fighting style was also different.
Berserker Demon, the main infantry type of the demon race. Their combat power far exceeded that of the Twin Blade Demons. They were fearless, and while their bodies were tough, their attacks were incredibly frenzied. They were comparable to a third-rank human warrior. The spikes growing from their arms had strong penetrating power and were the nemesis of human infantry.
The number of Berserker Demons wasn’t as large as that of the Twin Blade Demons. During wars, the demons rarely sent them to attack cities, because they were unwilling to expend them.
At this time, there were as many as five thousand Berserker Demons on the battlefield. The reason was simple: the Nubo Clan, to which the Berserker Demons belonged, was one of the three major tribes of Narick Province.
The Holy Light Spirit Array was a light-attribute group defense skill with extremely strong defense. Thousands of Berserker Demons rushed up from all directions, but were all blocked by the magic. They could only desperately attack the Holy Light Spirit Array, consuming the magic’s power.
The light of the Holy Light Spirit Array was rapidly weakening under the attacks of so many Berserker Demons and Demon Eye Warlocks. In mid-air, a large number of Two-Headed Demon Vultures soared, occasionally spitting out dark magic bullets and bombarding the Holy Light Spirit Array.
In addition to the Two-Headed Demon Vultures, there was another type of humanoid demon with the ability to fly. There were also many of them. Each one held a black spear in their hand, and behind them were a pair of large wings flapping. Their deep blue bodies had strange patterns shining. Although they were flying in the air, their fighting style belonged to the melee type, waiting for the Holy Light Spirit Array to end.
These were the Harpies of the Kuli Clan in the demon race. Their combat power was as high as the fourth rank, and they were good at pouncing on ground targets from the air. The Kuli Clan was another major clan in Narick Province. They, along with the Nubo Clan and the Xichang Clan to which the Two-Headed Demon Vultures belonged, jointly ruled this province.
In the Yue Ye Merchant Guild, whether they were caravan guards, coachmen, or shop assistants, they all picked up their weapons, and everyone’s face was filled with tension. Although their caravan of more than two thousand people had already killed so many of the demon army, the main force of the three clans of Narick Province outside was still intact. Once the Holy Light Spirit Array was broken, it was difficult to say how long they could resist with just these people.
Long Haochen glanced at his companions behind him, who had all changed into their equipment, and whispered, “Action.”
Because the Holy Light Spirit Array was still intact at this time, everyone in the cart formation was unanimously facing outwards, so no one noticed the changes on their side, and only took them as their own guards. Long Haochen led the other twelve people and quickly approached the carriage where Yue Ye and Leng Xiao were while the war hadn’t fully broken out.
On the carriage, Leng Xiao had already thrown away the command flag in her hand, and there was a long staff in her right hand. The staff was jet-black, and the top was a scarlet gemstone that seemed to have blood flowing inside it. Her black hair fluttered behind her head, and the pink color in her eyes gradually turned scarlet under the reflection of the staff’s gemstone. Her devilish figure was breathtaking in the night wind. Faintly, one could see that there seemed to be faint black patterns flowing on the skin of her hands.
Finally, after supporting for nearly five minutes, the golden light instantly shattered as cracks spread, turning into countless light spots and scattering into the night sky. The demon army, air and ground in one, rushed madly towards the cart formation. The bloody close combat finally arrived. The thick murderous aura mixed with the bloody smell permeated the entire caravan—
Facing a desperate situation, how will they finally break through the encirclement? Hehe.
