Chapter 516: The Tower of Eternity Descends! (I)

Saminaga’s assessment of Long Haochen’s strength was accurate, and he was inevitably going to succeed. In front of Cycle of Death, even the might of Long Haochen’s divine tool shouldn’t be able to last long. After all, the gap of strength was too great. He was only waiting for Long Haochen to die and for his soul to blend into the Domain of Death, and then, the divine tool would naturally become his.

But when Saminaga started to pay attention to Long Tianying and Vassago’s battle, and prepare to block Long Tiangying’s attack, a change occurred.

While engulfed by Cycle of Death, from Long Haochen’s chest burst forth a myriad of light rays. Even in Long Tianying’s eyes, these lights had a holy attribute of boundless purity. It was rather different in Saminaga’s eyes.

That golden light had a fantastic characteristic that was enough to give Saminaga some dread. Although this Domain of Death was originating from him, it continuously took essence from those who died inside as time passed. The power of these souls was engulfed unceasingly and they turned into specters residing in the domain, amplifying its might greatly.

For this reason, Saminaga’s domain stood out amongst all demonkind. Its power was enough to receive high praises from Agares and Vassago: his position as fourth demon god was precisely settled by the Domain of Death.

Right before, Saminaga utilized the twelve most powerful Specter Kings coming from it to instantly crush Long Haochen’s God Descent. Having attained such a level, his death magic could be already said to reach incredible heights, totally fearless in front of the power of ordinary holy light.

But at this very moment, he had a real feeling of dread. That’s because the myriad of light rays that burst out from Long Haochen’s chest were swallowing the power of his domain at a frantic speed.

That’s right, it wasn’t destroyed or dissolved, but swallowed. He could sense very clearly that the specters composing his domain were swallowed at an astonishing speed, and Cycle of Death was broken in almost no time. When Long Haochen reappeared in his line of sight, a golden pagoda seemed to be shrouding him.

And from that golden pagoda, an incomparably powerful and oppressive aura was rushing forth. Saminaga had only felt such a pressure in front of the Demon God Emperor himself before.

A golden light ten times more powerful than before burst out from the golden pagoda. One could faintly discern that, inside this golden pagoda, a bunch of whitish golden specters were lacerating his Domain of Death while swallowing it frantically.

In a few blinks of an eye, that light had already spread to the whole Domain of Death.

What’s that? Saminaga became totally panicked. In his panic, he didn’t have the wisdom to keep on his back the twelve gray sparkling specters, which were all about ten meters in diameter, and frantically shot them at that golden pagoda.

The Demon God of Death sensed that allowing this pagoda to keep engulfing his Domain of Death would result in its thorough destruction.

This power was really too frightening. The oppression he felt from that golden pagoda surpassed by far Long Haochen’s Divine Snail Shield as he saw it during daytime. At the time this golden pagoda appeared, he felt unable to resist.

A divine tool, and definitely not an ordinary one, but one that totally suppressed him with its attribute.

As a matter of fact, the Demon God of Death Saminaga was really excessively unlucky. Another demon god, even if far lower ranked, would have forced Long Haochen to teleport back into the Tower of Eternity long ago: Long Haochen couldn’t resist in front of absolute strength.

But the crucial point was that Saminaga had acted personally. His magic of death used the darkness element as its foundation, and he could be said to be the greatest powerhouse of the whole continent in death magic.

But the fact that he was the current best mage of death didn’t mean that he was the strongest in history.

Saminaga was indeed powerful, but in front of the Slumbering Calamity Elux, the former Scion of Light and necromancer that used holy light as attribute to cultivate his death magic, Saminaga paled into insignificance.

Originally, it took almost the whole human force to seal Elux and destroy his corporeal body. But the Tower of Eternity still remained, and the Slumbering Calamity relied almost only on his own power to resist against all humankind. The degree of terror he inspired was absolutely not below the Demon God Emperor, and compared to the latter, he used to be even more destructive for the human race.

The Slumbering Calamity Elux was cultivating necromancy, but necromancy and death magic’s greatest difference resided in the summoning. Necromancy was more inclined to summoning while death magic tended more closely to destruction and havoc.

One used the power of the souls to provide assistance in the battlefield, while the other one directly absorb these souls’ power to strengthen the user.

On a fundamental basis, it’s not as if one of these two paths is above the other. So cultivation is the greatest factor that needs to be looked at.

Saminaga was indeed a great character, ranked fourth in strength among all demons, and current top-ranked death magic practitioner powerhouse, but the gap separating him from Elux was not a little one.

The Scion of Light and god’s chosen one Elux even dared to blaspheme the Goddess of Light. That’s the extent of his strength! And his wisdom and intelligence enabled him to attain the peak in the research of necromancy, englobing the notions pertaining to death magic. Also, he left behind the Tower of Eternity, a supra-divine tool able to move from space to space. How could Saminaga contend against that?

If Elux was still alive, Saminaga would, in his eyes, only be a powerful soul to get and no more. He didn’t even qualify for a one versus one fight.

The difference in strength was quite distinct. In such circumstances, when Haochen activated the Eternal Melody, planning on returning to the Tower of Eternity, it sensed the Domain of Death’s massive quantity of specters and power of death through their connection.

To humans, this was a terrifyingly destructive power. But to the Tower of Eternity, this was simply an incomparably great tonic! Just how much did Saminaga amass over the years? And it was a pure energy of death, which didn’t need much filtering.

Hence the Tower of Eternity entered a state of excitement, feeling the great tonic that was just in sight, how could it possibly let it slip by so easily?

Therefore, a projection of it instantly shot through the space of Shengmo Dalu, protecting Long Haochen while starting to take these greatly tonifying things as food.

Saminaga was totally out of luck. If he hadn’t regarded Long Haochen too highly, and instead of directly using the Domain of Death had relied on his powerful spiritual energy to launch an attack, this situation wouldn’t have happened.

As a supra-divine tool, the attractive force it possessed towards specters was unquestionable, and irresistible. And holy light was no less than the nemesis of darkness.

Encountering Elux, Saminaga was like a young girl in front of a hungry and thirsty macho man. The two of them could compliment each other, but the difference of strength being such, it could only end up one way...

The twelve specters threw themselves at the Tower of Eternity: these two Specter Kings were one of Saminaga’s greatest trump cards. Having continuously nourished them with other specters, they became powerful enough to resist in front of God’s Descent, even without being at full power.

But upon encountering the Tower of Eternity now, all of this came to an end.

These twelve great specters were really tough: the light emitted by the Tower of Eternity managed at most to shake them, with no way of absorbing their extremely condensed soul force.

But the situation changed totally from the mere fact that these twelve great Specter Kings moved towards the Tower of Eternity.

The light that seemed to have no effect on them before suddenly lit up, turning from a golden color to an incandescent white, and a terrible sort of soul shock burst forth from the Tower of Eternity.

The twelve Specter Kings screamed in mourning almost simultaneously. Their massive, congealed bodies shook violently, turning into innumerable spectral fragments that spread through the air.

Circles of incandescent white light surged out frantically, absorbing and swallowing these soul fragments. The brilliance of the Tower of Eternity also broke completely through Saminaga’s Domain of Death at this time, transforming into an area of omnipresent golden light which totally rejected the Domain of Death.

Not only was the soul force from the Domain of Death was absorbed, but even the newly deceased troops from the Demon Emperor Legions had their souls absorbed at a frantic speed.

This was the power of a supra-divine tool. Even the mere projection of the tool already displayed an incomparably terrifying might.

As a supra-divine tool, the Tower of Eternity was highly wise and intelligent in its own right. To fully gain control of it, Long Haochen could only complete every trial left by Elux, and upon finally reaching the top of the tower, he might receive the inheritance of the Holy Necromancer.

The main body of the Tower of Eternity had a strong sense of independance. Feeling that this space could provide him with things of extreme benefit, it chose not to spare any cost, spreading its divine light to this world to plunder every benefit without restraint.

Earlier, just as the twelve Specter Kings threw themselves at the Tower of Eternity, given its power as a supra-divine tool, how could it be unable damage them? It just chose to do that deliberately.

That’s because the Tower of Eternity sensed the great power of these twelve. By attacking them from a distance, it would definitely cause them to run away in fright. And as a projection, it had no way to forcibly attract them from a far distance.
