Chapter 112: A Terrifying Little Beast? The Changes of War
"If this devouring can be fully integrated, there might be a chance to elevate the Eternal Tower one step further."
"There is a possibility of it stepping into the rank of a Super Artifact."
Electrolux spoke, and although there was no emotional fluctuation, it was not hard to hear a trace of pride in his tone.
Yes, after all, the Eternal Tower was not a natural-born Artifact; it was something he had polished and improved from zero, which was how it possessed its current level!
In a sense, it was equivalent to Electrolux's child. Seeing his child like this now, how could he not be proud?
Of course, his child was only the Eternal Tower; the tool spirit intelligence that had been born on its own over the past six thousand years was not Electrolux's child. "A Super Artifact?"
"That is indeed a matter worth looking forward to."
Ye Ling smiled slightly. Electrolux was satisfied, and Ye Ling was also satisfied; after all, the current master of the Eternal Tower could be said to be Ye Ling.
Although he could not wield the true power of the Eternal Tower, not being able to now did not mean he would not be able to in the future.
A potential Super Artifact—even Ye Ling was very satisfied with that, alright.
Just as the two were conversing, Han Zhige, who had been resting on the side, pulled his body up with difficulty, struggled to rise, and performed a Knight salute toward Electrolux's position: "Knight Temple, Han Zhige."
"Thank you, Senior, for saving my life."
The appearance of this scene actually made Electrolux somewhat surprised. Ever since he truly became the Necromancer Saint Electrolux, he had never been thanked even once.
Hmm, not even once.
Everything Han Zhige did actually made him feel somewhat surprised.
It was just that amidst the surprise, a strange emotion also emerged. He was the Necromancer Saint, and also the Child of Light. Once upon a time, he had also lived this kind of life like a great hero, but it had vanished on a certain day.
But now, there was actually such a possibility? It was indeed a strange feeling.
Damn Glorious Church. "Little Ye, I am going back to sleep for a long time first. If you have anything, come find me again."
"If nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be those powerful Demon Race members outside now, and I have also moved the location of the small world where the Eternal Tower is situated onto your city wall."
Electrolux explained slightly, and after a moment, he automatically dissipated from this place.
Only a few people remained on the spot.
"Ye Ling, who is this senior?" Han Zhige asked. Although he hadn't spoken just now, everything he had heard was completely imprinted in his mind.
A Super Artifact. Samigina wasn't even qualified to be a subordinate. In the past on the continent, even though Han Zhige was one of the people with the most power in the Knight Temple today, logically speaking, his perspective and understanding should have been extremely high, but now he felt like a child who knew nothing, just looking at Ye Ling before him with a desire for knowledge.
Likewise, he was also bewildered. What exactly was the situation with this kid? How come the people around him all day long were either a Divine Seal Knight, or a Demon Princess, or the Saintess of various temples, and now an ancient powerhouse had appeared?
This was too inconceivable, right?
"Haha." Ye Ling smiled somewhat awkwardly. He knew that after coming in this time, Han Zhige would definitely have doubts, but he didn't intend to lie, so he simply said: "Senior Han, do you know Electrolux?"
"Naturally I know, the true culprit behind the destruction of the Glorious Church in the past!" Han Zhige replied, but suddenly, he seemed to understand something. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes, and he looked at Ye Ling in front of him in astonishment, shouting: "What did you say? This senior is the Necromancer Saint Electrolux?"
Thinking about it this way, it was actually normal. Possessing terrifying strength, powerful Soul Power, and power that restrained the undead—who else could it be but that greatest undead powerhouse in history, the Necromancer Saint Electrolux? It was just that Han Zhige couldn't figure out "why" it would be him... But after a long while, he fell silent, sighed faintly, and didn't know what would be best to say.
"I didn't expect it. This powerhouse, whom I have always viewed with negative influence, actually saved me today, and saved all the soldiers on the city wall of Yulong Pass."
"It really is turning the world upside down." Han Zhige smiled helplessly.
Having grown up listening to the stories of Electrolux, he naturally had some disgust for this Necromancer Saint, but he was a true Knight and would not return evil for good. Although Ye Ling had saved him this time, it could completely be said that Electrolux had saved him too. Since that was the case, how could Han Zhige return evil for good? It was merely that he was currently feeling a bit conflicted.
After a long while, he sighed and looked at Ye Ling, asking: "Do the two Hall Masters know about this?"
"They know." Ye Ling smiled and said very firmly.
"That will do." Han Zhige struggled to rise, but he could not hold on for too long. Ye Ling tapped on the center of Han Zhige's brow, and a strange technique was transmitted toward Han Zhige just like that.
"This is a technique to control the Soul Power within your body. Activate it to stabilize the state of your body, so as to avoid any accidents."
Hearing this, Han Zhige was stunned, then simply nodded and said: "Good."
After saying that, he began to activate it, mobilizing the Spiritual Power and those Soul Powers within his body, letting them settle inside him, and only then was he barely able to move.
Seeing this, Ye Ling smiled and nodded, saying: "Alright."
After saying that, the Eternal Melody acted. The next moment, a strange light ignited on his body and fell onto Han Zhige. The next moment, Han Zhige immediately dissipated from the spot.
"Sister Xin'er, Lingxi, let's go too." Ye Ling turned his head to look at Li Xin and Long Lingxi, who had been silent on the side, and said so.
Hearing this, the two of them nodded in response: "Good."
And then they left accordingly.
But just as Ye Ling intended to leave, he saw Electrolux's voice emerge from the side: "Ye Ling, leave Senior Canghai here."
"I will study his restoration in detail; perhaps I can find a certain solution."
"Having slept for so long, some things should be clarified, and there are some things I must help do."
Electrolux's voice emerged. Hearing these words, the corners of Ye Ling's mouth hooked into an arc. A contract slowly formed on his right chest, and the Moon Bright Vast Sea slowly flew out and landed on the side of the hall.
"Senior Canghai, just stay here and keep Senior Electrolux company. Communication between two old men feels better than communicating with young people." Ye Ling laughed loudly.
Hearing these words, the Moon Bright Vast Sea was furious: "You brat..."
But he only saw Ye Ling laugh loudly and then dissipate from the spot, leaving only the Moon Bright Vast Sea behind, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long while, a phantom image slowly emerged beside the Moon Bright Vast Sea Spiritual Stove.
It was exactly Electrolux.
"Senior Canghai, this should be the first time we have communicated alone again in these six thousand years, right?" Electrolux's voice slowly emerged, directed at the Moon Bright Vast Sea Spiritual Stove, and he spoke thus.
"That's right." The Moon Bright Vast Sea nodded, and with a trace of apology, said: "Long time no see, Electrolux."
"For these six thousand years, I am very sorry."
Electrolux's figure shook his head: "You do not need to be sorry. The Twelve Watchers need to maintain absolute neutrality." "Moreover, I can be considered to have completed my goal—destroying the Glorious Church—so it is not considered a total loss, it is just that I am sorry for those ordinary people who died at my hands."
"The wood is already carved into a boat; it cannot be reversed." The Moon Bright Vast Sea shook his head: "Next, you should do as Ye Ling said earlier and atone for your sins."
"That is natural." Electrolux nodded.
Then he sighed and said: "It's a pity, although this child has your assistance, it is too late. If it could have been earlier, perhaps there might really have been a possibility of breaking through the limit of the Child of Light level, and he could have surpassed me."
"But looking at it now, he can at most become me, but he cannot surpass me."
Electrolux sighed. Ye Ling meeting him, or rather, his formation was too slow. It wasn't that he had stimulated his own Child of Light talent from a young age; it was too slow... It wasn't just him; even the Light Saintess named Long Lingxi by his side was the same.
Both of them were too late.
"If it were in the past, perhaps one could say that, but now it is no longer the case?" Moon Bright Vast Sea Spiritual Stove shook its head: "As for him in the future, not to mention breaking through the limits of the Child of Light level, it will not be difficult for him to surpass you."
"What do you mean by that?" Electrolux asked, puzzled.
"Did you notice that little beast on top of his head?" Moon Bright Vast Sea asked.
"What little beast on his head?" Electrolux was extremely confused. He searched through his memories, and after a long while, his eyes suddenly widened. He had indeed found a cute little beast in his memories, and it had also been dwelling on Ye Ling's head.
And just a moment ago, Electrolux had even directly ignored her, without any reversal.
If it were anyone else, this would be a very normal thing, but this is Electrolux! With his terrifying Mental Power, no movement on the scene could escape his sight, yet that little beast... Electrolux understood what this represented and hurriedly asked: "What is its background?"
"I don't know." Moon Bright Vast Sea shook its head: "But according to my perception, this little beast is related to my boss..."
Electrolux was shocked!!!
On the city walls of Yulong Pass, countless figures slowly walked out. First was Han Zhige, followed by Long Lingxi and Li Xin, and then Ye Ling.
The moment Ye Ling walked out, one could see many alliance powerhouses gathered here. They did not step forward, only looking at everything here with curiosity, not daring to approach.
Only Han Zhige's wife, holding that Immortal Grade shield, rushed into Han Zhige's embrace and wept deeply. She had not expected that she would be able to see her husband again.
"It's over." Ye Ling looked at the situation before him, thinking about how to handle it.
But just at this moment, a mysterious reddish-gold light suddenly surged in the sky, tugging at the heartstrings of everyone here like the morning sun. Even Ye Ling stabilized his mind at the first moment and looked toward it.
From within came a majestic voice, yet one that Ye Ling was very familiar with: "What happened?"
"The battle situation has changed so much?"
Yes, the person who arrived was none other than Long Xingyu, and behind him followed many Ninth-Rank Powerhouses of the temple, flying over slowly. His strength continuously spread out, and the gathered momentum was extremely terrifying, instantly attracting every existence present.
"Greetings, Star Universe Hall Master (Teacher)."
Everyone bowed and saluted.
"Zhige, Ye Ling, what happened?" Long Xingyu was somewhat puzzled and looked at the two people he considered most capable of understanding the situation.
And beside him, a Punishment Knight stepped forward slightly, a trace of agitation appearing in his eyes, "Just now, after Tianyin Hall Master went back to recuperate, I led several Vice Temple Masters to fight against the Bear Demon God and some other Demon Gods."
"We had originally trapped them, but we sensed a powerful Demon God aura appear here. We were about to provide support, but not long after, the Bear Demon God and the others retreated on their own, and we took quite a bit of advantage."
This was He Jun, a Vice Temple Master of the Knight Temple.
"Eternal Tower." Han Zhige did not answer directly, but used Transmission of Sound: "Star Universe Hall Master, it is the Eternal Tower!"
"Eternal Tower!?" Long Xingyu immediately understood the situation: "Could it be that he made a move?"
"Exactly." Han Zhige immediately recounted everything that had happened during this period. In an instant, Long Xingyu understood everything. He also looked at Ye Ling beside him with shock, his eyes filled with genuine astonishment.
Over these past few years, he had made up for a lot of information regarding Electrolux, and he was in great awe of this person.
He had originally been worried about the relationship between him and his disciple... He did not expect that his disciple could actually summon that person from the Eternal Tower to make a move. It seemed their misunderstanding of Electrolux was quite significant. "Gather the troops, clear the battlefield, let our compatriots return to dust and earth, each to their own duties!" Long Xingyu understood everything at once, turned around to give orders, and then reached out to use his Spiritual Power to sweep up Han Zhige, his wife, and Ye Ling, heading toward another location.
And those people there also began to discuss it continuously.
"If I am not mistaken, that terrifying pagoda should be related to that young man."
"What is that young man's name?"
"Ye Ling."
"Ye Ling? This name is so familiar. It seems the champion of the Youth Knight Competition a few years ago was him!"
"It is him. I didn't expect it. How long has it been, and he actually has this level of strength?"
"What strength doesn't matter! But he is a hero now! He saved Knight Chief Han Zhige, and he saved us too!"
Without Ye Ling knowing, his reputation was also continuously spreading throughout the entire Knight Temple. In a certain secret room.
Han Zhige's wife was guarding outside the door.
Inside the room, at this moment, Long Xingyu was bringing Long Tianyin to come here, and opposite them were the few direct participants of this battle.
"Xingyu? What happened?" Long Tianyin's body was full of strange magic. The battle where he had shouldered the burden alone for this period of time had caused him no small amount of damage, even injuring his origin.
He also knew that Long Xingyu would not mess around, and calling him over this time was likely for something major.
"This battle can be considered a complete victory, even causing the Fourth Pillar Necromancer Demon God Samigina's origin to collapse countless times, losing his status." Long Xingyu explained.
"This is a good thing!" Long Tianyin was slightly excited, looking at Long Xingyu, and then looking at the few beside him: "Zhige? You were actually able to achieve this?"
"Tianyin Hall Master, it was not my greatest effort..." Han Zhige said with a bitter smile.
"Then who was it?" Long Tianyin was puzzled, his gaze blankly looking at the three people beside him, his eyes widening. And following Long Xingyu's next sentence, revealing the truth: Long Xingyu: "It is your good grand-disciple. He successfully utilized the ability of the Necromancer Saint Electrolux and devoured the domain of the Necromancer Demon God Samigina, feeding it back into the Eternal Tower."
Long Tianyin: "..."
"Ah?"
