Behind that two-foot-tall figure were also six black wings. Its head was large, almost half the size of its entire body. Only a few sparse yellow hairs grew on top of its head, and its eyes emitted a deathly white light. Its limbs were extremely thin, as was its body, forming a stark contrast with its huge head. A mouthful of yellow teeth emitted a fishy stench. A faint aura of darkness continuously emanated from its body.

On its body, there were at least a dozen wounds that were deep enough to see bone. A corner of its huge head was even shaved off, revealing wriggling, worm-like white crevices inside, making it as disgusting as could be. Especially its voice, which had become abnormally hoarse, sounding like a crow cawing.

“You…” Long Haochen stared blankly at this “unknown creature,” momentarily speechless.

The two-foot-tall little man chuckled, “I am the Insight Demon God, Crocell! To be precise, I am Crocell’s true form. Among the seventy-two Demon Gods, my strength isn’t much, but in terms of survival ability, few of them can compare to me. The one you killed was just my parasitic body. Speaking of which, cultivating such a parasitic body is really difficult, requiring me to find a near-perfect body among you humans to satisfy me. Then, it takes me several years to completely occupy it and transfer over ninety percent of my own strength into the parasitic body. But, no matter how difficult, it’s worth it. At least the parasitic body is so perfect, and it’s also my second life. That skill you used earlier was indeed terrifying, even comparable to the Demon Gods ranked in the top thirty-six. Too bad, all you could kill was my parasitic body.”

“Judging by your voice, you shouldn’t be too old. I hope you’re handsome enough. You even used a Sacrifice skill, so you must be finding it hard to even lift a finger now, right? Quickly take off your mask and let me see, if I’m satisfied, even though your soul will be erased, at least your body can merge with me. For you, what an honor that would be!”

Speaking to this point, Crocell couldn’t help but laugh out loud, but the laughter was filled with coldness and cruelty.

He hated Long Haochen to the core. Cultivating a parasitic body was extremely difficult. Once the parasitic body was killed, it would take him at least five years to recover his original strength, and it would also severely damage his vitality. It would take even longer, up to ten years, for his vitality to fully recover.

Therefore, at this moment, with a complete advantage, Crocell was not in a hurry to kill Long Haochen. He would not let him off easily until he had tortured him to the point of ecstasy and death.

Long Haochen seemed very afraid, his body trembling slightly. He released Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light, with his left hand and slowly raised it, taking off his mask.

At this moment, he was indeed finding it difficult to even raise his hand. The dual consumption of merging with Haoyue and using the Sacrifice skill had brought him to the end of his rope. Ya Ting and Haoyue had also fallen into a weak slumber. The Four Great Saint Guards were too afraid of Crocell’s fierce power to appear. It seemed that all that remained for him was a path to death.

The mask was removed with some difficulty, revealing Long Haochen’s face, which, though pale, was still incomparably handsome.

The Son of Light was a synonym for perfection. Although the Insight Demon God Crocell’s original parasitic body was handsome, it was far inferior to Long Haochen, whether in appearance or temperament, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Therefore, when Crocell saw Long Haochen’s handsome appearance, he was immediately stunned. The previous anger was instantly replaced by ecstasy. With his insight, he could naturally see that Long Haochen was a hundred times stronger than his previous parasitic body. His temperament and body were so perfect. If he could use him as his parasitic body, then perhaps it would be worth it to spend another five years to recover!

Just as Crocell was excitedly gesticulating, suddenly, a streak of crystal-clear orange-red light shot out without warning. The orange-red color was so gorgeous, like a rainbow cutting through the sky, instantly piercing through Crocell’s large head.

Crocell’s excited gaze suddenly became dull. His body staggered back a few steps and then collapsed to the ground. What pierced through his head was none other than the Aria of the Goddess of Light!

That fierce, epic-level orange-red light was precisely the gorgeous brilliance of this divine sword!

Long Haochen’s body collapsed directly to the ground, panting heavily. The collar of his clothes under the Fine Gold Foundation Armor was completely soaked with sweat. At this moment, he was so weak that he couldn’t even lift a finger.

However, his eyes were still fixed on Crocell until a dark blue, crown-like light broke out from his body and flew frantically to the side. Only then did Long Haochen finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The appearance of the Demon God’s Crown meant that the Insight Demon God Crocell was truly dead.

“Your abilities are indeed beyond my expectations. You deserve to be one of the seventy-two Demon Gods of the Demon Race.” Long Haochen said with emotion. Although he couldn’t move, he could still speak.

This battle had given him a deep impression. Although he was not injured, the danger of this battle even exceeded the time when Cai’er’s Death God’s Chosen One awakened. At that time, Long Haochen could at least control the time to leave through the Eternal Melody. But this time, he had truly reached the end of his rope.

Crocell was too cunning. His body was actually a parasitic body, and his true form was hidden inside the parasitic body. At a critical moment, he could escape through the parasitic body. This was something Long Haochen never expected, and no one would have expected. Perhaps even those Demon Gods didn’t know about Crocell’s ability.

When Long Haochen saw that Crocell was still alive, he felt a bit desperate. He could feel Crocell’s strength at that time. The death of the parasitic body greatly weakened Crocell, and his true form was also severely injured.

From a spiritual power perspective, Crocell was at most equivalent to a seventh-tier cultivator. Having lost ninety percent of his power, he was already very weak. Especially his body, which had severely degenerated because it had always been parasitic in that tall and handsome body. His external spiritual power was infinitely close to zero.

However, such a Crocell was fatal enough for Long Haochen, who could no longer move at all.

At this critical moment of life and death, Long Haochen tried his best to calm himself down. He knew that he only had one chance, and it was truly the last chance.

Crocell relaxed because of Long Haochen’s physical condition. With his ability as the Insight Demon God, he could completely feel the extent of Long Haochen’s weakness, so he had no defensive thoughts at all.

Long Haochen took off his mask to find the best opportunity for himself. Although Crocell was very fragile at that time, once his final attack was blocked, then he would have no possibility of surviving. The depletion of spiritual power in his body meant that he had no way to fight against Crocell. He didn’t even dare to teleport. In his current physical state, if he teleported through the Eternal Melody, he might be torn apart by the turbulent currents of space-time.

As Long Haochen expected, Crocell, who had lost his parasitic body, desperately needed a new body. When he saw Long Haochen’s appearance, the excitement lowered his vigilance to the lowest level. It was at this time that Long Haochen’s attack was launched.

Holy Bloom! A powerful amplification attack skill of the Retribution Knight. Long Haochen used his spiritual power to divide the Holy Bloom skill into two parts. One part activated the Aria of the Goddess of Light, and the other part became its thrust, which pierced through Crocell’s head and succeeded in one strike.

Where did this Holy Bloom power come from? Speaking of which, Long Haochen was now full of gratitude to Saint Master Holy Moon. Wasn’t this Holy Bloom skill exactly the skill of Transfer of Flowers and Grafting Trees, directly passed down from the Saint Master Holy Moon lineage of the Assassin Temple? Long Haochen always stored such a skill in his body for emergencies. Transfer of Flowers and Grafting Trees had certain limitations. Skills that were too powerful and domineering could not be stored, otherwise, it would harm his body. Long Haochen believed that Holy Bloom was the most useful. It had a large amount of spiritual power, was easy to convert and amplify, and could produce unexpected results. Therefore, under normal circumstances, he now stored Holy Bloom in his body.

He didn’t expect that today, it was by relying on the storage of Transfer of Flowers and Grafting Trees that he saved his own life. Crocell’s trump card was revealed at just the right time, but the biggest mistake he made was not killing Long Haochen at the first moment.

Long Haochen won this battle very luckily. Crocell’s final conspiracy almost succeeded. Recalling the process just now, Long Haochen’s heart was still filled with fear.

The seventy-two Demon Gods of the Demon Race were indeed not so easy to deal with! This was only the Demon God ranked forty-ninth. How strong would the ones ranked higher be?

Long Haochen still deeply remembered the feeling of helplessness when he was trapped by the Undead Demon God, Samigina. If Samigina hadn’t been unlucky enough to encounter the Eternal Tower, Long Haochen would have already died in battle.

After painful reflection, Long Haochen slowly closed his eyes to rest. The overdrawn body needed time to recover, and so did the spiritual power in his body. Crocell was already dead, and he had plenty of time to rest. As for that Demon God’s Crown, it couldn’t run away.

This was the Eternal Tower. Without Long Haochen’s teleportation, no creature that entered could get out, unless the Demon God’s Crown could reach the level of a super artifact, perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope.

Therefore, Long Haochen was not in a hurry at all. Let it bump into walls left and right in the Eternal Tower.

After resting for a full half hour, Long Haochen had the strength to sit up. He took a few pills refined by Lin Xin to recover his strength and then restored his spiritual power through cultivation.
