Chapter 42: Knight Sacred Mountain (IV) | Throne Of Seal [Trans]
Throne Of Seal [Trans] - Updated on March 12, 2025
Here’s the translation of the Traditional Chinese text into English:
Long Haochen flipped his wrist and took down his Radiant Shield. Maintaining constant vigilance was a mandatory lesson for any knight.
The gigantic figure slowly landed a few dozen yards away from them. It was a flying magical beast.
Compared to Ye Hua’s Earthshaking Eagle, this flying magical beast appeared even more magnificent. It was about six meters long, with a light golden body, a dragon’s head and a bird’s body. It had long, multicolored feathers at the back of its head and tail. After landing gracefully, its wide wings slowly retracted, and it raised its head, radiating beauty.
A Rank Seven Magical Beast: Dragonhawk. Long Haochen recognized the beast’s origin at a glance.
Dragonhawks were Light-attribute flying magical beasts. For knights, Light-attribute mounts were the most precious, as they could greatly enhance a knight’s combat power.
Two people also jumped down from the Dragonhawk’s back: a middle-aged man and a young man. As soon as they landed, their eyes turned towards Long Haochen and his companions.
“Oh, who do we have here? If it isn’t Brother Ye Hua, long time no see!” The middle-aged man paused for a moment upon seeing Ye Hua, but quickly walked over with a smile.
Ye Hua remained cold and aloof, and didn’t return the greeting.
This middle-aged man was wearing a suit of light golden armor, which clearly emanated a Light aura. He had no weapons on him and wasn’t wearing a helmet, letting his long golden hair flow freely behind him.
He appeared to be younger than Ye Hua, with somewhat feminine facial features. Especially his slender eyes, which vaguely gave off a sharp and piercing feeling.
The young man beside him resembled the middle-aged man in at least seven aspects. He was around seventeen or eighteen years old and had a tall, imposing figure with a hint of arrogance on his face.
The middle-aged man came closer and smiled: “What’s wrong? Brother Ye Hua, don’t tell me you don’t recognize me anymore. Although we haven’t seen each other for six or seven years, we grew up together. I recognized your Earthshaking Eagle from afar. Although that magical beast is only Rank Six, it’s extremely rare. I figured it had to be you.”
Ye Hua coldly said, “Ghost Shadow, you’re still as full of hot air as ever.”
The middle-aged man’s expression changed slightly, and the young man beside him couldn’t help but retort angrily: “What did you say?”
“Shut up.” The middle-aged man, Ghost Shadow, smiled slightly, his expression returning to normal, “Ye Hua, the teacher misses you very much. You’ve been gone from our Cultivation City for many years. You should go back and visit him. Once a teacher, always a father!”
Ye Hua’s expression grew even colder. “I don’t need you to teach me. Let’s go.” As he said this, he ignored Ghost Shadow, and led Long Haochen towards the Knight Sacred Mountain.
Watching their retreating figures, the young man couldn’t help but ask Ghost Shadow, “Dad, who is that guy? Why is he acting so arrogant?”
Ghost Shadow said indifferently, “Just a useless piece of trash. He was kicked out by your grandmaster. It looks like he’s bringing that boy to the Knight Sacred Mountain to obtain a mount. That boy doesn’t even look as old as you. After entering the Sacred Mountain, if you get the chance, make some trouble for him.”
The young man nodded excitedly. “I’ll let him know how powerful I am. If I break one of his legs, I wonder what magical beast would still be willing to get close to him.”
Ghost Shadow narrowed his eyes, a sharp light flashing within. Memories from decades ago slowly surfaced in his mind.
…………
“Big Brother Ye Hua, you’re about to become a knight, aren’t you? Why does your spiritual power increase so fast? Is there a secret? Teach me, please?”
“Cultivation requires your own efforts. There are no shortcuts.”
“Hmph. The teacher must be biased and taught you special cultivation methods. Otherwise, you’re only three years older than me. Why are you becoming a knight already?”
“Smack!”
“How dare you hit me? How dare you hit me…”
“I’m hitting you because you deserve it. If you dare speak ill of the teacher again, I’ll break your limbs and throw you out of the Cultivation City main hall. Get lost, and don’t let me see you again.”
That year, he was twelve years old, and Ye Hua was fifteen years old.
…………
“Ghost Wu, if you get the chance, break that brat’s limbs.” Ghost Shadow coldly said. Only then did Ghost Shadow stride forward.
Ghost Wu, with a face full of arrogance, paused slightly. “Break his limbs, huh? Wouldn’t that be too cruel? But I like it.” A ferocious look flashed across his face.
Ye Hua walked forward silently. His expression was still so cold, but Long Haochen, who knew him well, could clearly feel that his teacher’s emotions were fluctuating somewhat unstably.
“Teacher, are those your enemies?” Long Haochen asked in a deep voice.
Ye Hua glanced at him. “They are my former fellow disciples from Cultivation City, one of the largest main cities adjacent to the Saint Alliance headquarters. My teacher is a Saint Knight of the Knight Alliance, possessing a Mithril Foundation Battle Armor. Once, I entered the Cultivation City main hall at the age of thirteen, and broke through the third rank at the age of fifteen, hailed as the greatest genius of Cultivation City in a hundred years. I was a direct disciple of the teacher. But, one step to heaven, one step to hell. When my innate internal spiritual power was discovered to be nine, a genius turned into trash. I worked hard for two more years in the Cultivation City main hall, but my internal spiritual power cultivation speed was extremely slow. Thus, the teacher expelled me from the Cultivation City main hall. Among those responsible for expelling me, Ghost Shadow was one of them. He was the one who ridiculed me the most fiercely, calling me trash.”
After saying this, Ye Hua closed his mouth, as if he was just talking about something that had nothing to do with him. But the pace of his steps suddenly quickened, and under the urging of spiritual power, he rushed forward like an arrow.
Long Haochen clenched his fists, vowing in his heart that he would help his teacher wash away this humiliation. Although Ye Hua said it very simply, he could imagine that his teacher must have suffered a great shock back then to become like this. And Ghost Shadow was clearly one of the instigators.

Looking back at Ghost Shadow and his son, who were a hundred yards behind them, a faint glimmer of light shone in Long Haochen’s clear, light golden eyes.
A hundred miles was nothing to them. In less than an hour, Long Haochen followed Ye Hua to the vicinity of Knight Sacred Mountain.
The closer they got to the Knight Sacred Mountain, the more intense the aura of Light element became. Mists emitting a pale golden luster rose in front of them, with the towering peaks of mountains looming indistinctly. Clearly, Knight Sacred Mountain didn’t refer to a single mountain, but a mountain range. The mist seemed to dissipate as they approached, making it not so hard to see.
Gradually, they entered the range of the light golden mist. Long Haochen was surprised to find that this light golden mist seemed to be very pure Light element. After entering this mist, the Light element was at least five times more concentrated than outside, and contained virtually no impurities.
“You feel it, right? The Light element here is much more concentrated than outside. The Knight Sacred Mountain range itself is a huge magical formation, formed by mountains as markings. These Light elements are also absorbed by the formation. If we knights could cultivate here, it would definitely produce twice the result with half the effort. But, obviously, that’s impossible. Because, it is precisely the existence of these Light elements that suppresses the ferocity of those magical beasts. Therefore, no knight is allowed to cultivate in the Knight Sacred Mountain. Even the guarding elders cannot. Otherwise, once the balance of the Light elements within the formation is broken, it is very likely to cause the magical beasts within to riot. After you enter, it’s okay for the spiritual power in your body to circulate on its own, but you must not meditate to cultivate.”

They are about to enter the Sacred Mountain. Long Haochen muttered to himself: “It seems that if I have a lot of recommendation votes, my mount will be very awesome! Quickly grant me some recommendation votes and bookmarks.”
