"Found it—the resting place of Electrolux, the Necromancer Saint Mage, the Calamity of Eternal Slumber: the Tower of Eternity!"
"It is within this Sorrowful Howling Cave."
Long Xingyu looked at the crack before him and thought this to himself.
Although he had not successfully entered it, Long Xingyu had already entered a state of perception. His greatest purpose was to obtain all the information within.
Long Haochen, standing beside him, was also somewhat dazed after landing.
Long Xingyu was a Ninth-Tier Level Four Divine Seal Knight. The spiritual wings behind him were incredibly fast, and he had arrived here in no time, the journey entirely unobstructed.
But that was only for Long Xingyu himself.
For Long Haochen, even with Long Xingyu's protection and the added killing spiritual energy, he had still been somewhat dazed along the way.
Only then did he slowly land.
At that moment, Long Haochen was somewhat stunned.
At a loss.
Then, he slowly turned his head and looked at his father, Long Xingyu.
"Dad, where is this?" Long Haochen asked in confusion. It felt as though a long time had passed, but judging by the sun in the sky, he knew that not much time had gone by—at most two hours. How far could Long Xingyu have brought him in that time?
"This place is called Sorrowful Howling Cave. It is the resting place of that legendary figure, roughly two or three thousand kilometers away from Dragon Control Pass," Long Xingyu replied casually.
Long Haochen fell silent upon hearing that.
Such a great distance, covered in two hours—if it had been anyone else, Long Haochen would probably have been amazed. But since it was his father, Long Xingyu, he actually found this speed rather normal.
However, Long Xingyu did not say much more. He merely patted Long Haochen's head, then took his hand and stepped into the Tower of Eternity.
The instant they entered.
At the edge stood a nimble figure, holding a spear and wearing a blackish-yellow robe. A bloodthirsty red gleam flashed through his eyes as he licked his lips and watched everything within.
"Humans actually dare to come to demon territory, and they even dare to openly covet the treasures of a great demon god."
"They truly do not know their place."
This nimble figure was a demon god. The radiance emanating from him made it clear that he was a Ninth-Tier demon god.
After seeing Long Xingyu and the others enter, he immediately intended to ambush and kill them.
But halfway there, after sensing the sorrowful howls within, his mind shifted slightly, as though he had thought of something interesting.
He gave a gloomy smile.
"There must be some treasure inside that I, this demon god, have never discovered before."
"Fine. I shall let this human knight search inside. Once he finds all the treasures and comes out, I can simply seize them from him."
Within Sorrowful Howling Cave.
Long Xingyu and Long Haochen also walked deeper inside.
Descending downward.
When the cave sensed someone entering, the Tower of Eternity at its highest point burst into flames. Endless sorrowful howls rang out from within and instantly swept over the father and son.
Long Haochen covered his ears at once.
But the sorrowful howls could not be suppressed merely by covering one's ears. In an instant, he felt unbearable agony and trembled all over.
The aura of God's Chosen within him did not provide him with enough help.
"Aaaah!" Long Haochen could not withstand the pain and cried out. The agony pierced deep into his soul, leaving him utterly miserable as it tormented his mind.
Even blocking his ears with spiritual energy did nothing, because it struck directly at the soul!
Yet moments later, he discovered a crimson-golden flash of light. It formed an aura field that separated the countless sorrowful howls, blocking them outside the crimson-golden radiance.
Long Haochen steadied himself at that moment.
Then he looked toward Long Xingyu beside him.
Yes, that aura field was the Killing Domain—the aura barrier released by Long Xingyu, blocking all the sorrowful howls outside.
After all, Long Xingyu knew that these sorrowful howls—or rather, piercing howls—were merely the first line of defense of the Tower of Eternity. In other words, they were sonic attacks.
For other beings, this would have been an extremely difficult obstacle, but for Long Xingyu, it was nothing complicated. With a thought, he released his spiritual energy, and no sorrowful howl within ten meters could approach him.
"Luckily, Dad, you were by my side. If these sorrowful howls had continued for a few more minutes, I might have died here," Long Haochen said with great difficulty, panting heavily.
Seeing this, Long Xingyu slowly infused Long Haochen with spiritual energy, restoring him to his peak condition.
"These sorrowful howls are a defense released to protect the resting place of that legendary figure."
"Not to mention you—even an ordinary King-level Demon Hunt Group, those Seventh-Tier beings, might fail immediately upon coming here, or even remain here forever." Long Xingyu consoled Long Haochen when he saw the somewhat dejected expression on his face.
Long Haochen froze slightly upon hearing this.
Even King-level groups might fail?
Those were terrifying Demon Hunt Groups made entirely of Temple Knights!
But after thinking about it, he nodded calmly, feeling that this was perfectly normal. After all, his father, Long Xingyu, was a Ninth-Tier Divine Seal Knight!
How could a King-level Demon Hunt Group compare to him?
Perhaps even an Emperor-level Demon Hunt Group would be unable to do so. Only the legendary Title-level Demon Hunt Group could possibly compare with his father, right?
Long Haochen began letting his imagination run wild.
"Haochen, have you recovered?" Long Xingyu asked.
"I've recovered!" Long Haochen answered his father.
Upon hearing that, Long Xingyu did not say much more. He did not intend to waste any more time. He grabbed Long Haochen, erupted with speed, and moved in an instant.
Sorrowful Howling Cave was two thousand meters long. The sorrowful howls differed greatly in every section, but to Long Xingyu, no matter how deep they went, it made no difference!
Those two thousand meters were like a single step, and he shot through them in an instant.
Very soon, they arrived at the deepest part of Sorrowful Howling Cave.
Past a corner, they could see a massive cavern. Its rock walls were exceptionally smooth and glimmered with a special gray light, carrying the aura of the undead.
Yet within that undead aura, Long Xingyu could actually sense a special holy aura—the power of light!
Long Xingyu remembered this with perfect clarity.
"Past this corner is what I want," Long Xingyu thought. Then he led Long Haochen around the turn, and with a single step, they saw a cavern two hundred meters tall.
But that was not the most striking sight.
Within the cavern.
Stood a Treasure Pagoda one hundred meters tall!
That was!
The Super Divine Artifact, the Tower of Eternity!
