Long Xingyu finished considering everything.
That boundless aura also descended into his body. In an instant, it stirred his aura, sending it soaring into the sky as a pillar of light erupted.
It formed a unique pillar of light.
But unlike Long Haochen, Long Xingyu encountered no obstruction whatsoever. It was merely a matter of whether he wished to remain here any longer.
Likewise, Long Xingyu was curious whether Elex could truly sense all of this.
At the same time, Long Haochen's Son of Light talent had also been detected, and the voice Elex had left behind praised him highly. "I never expected this recording of mine to be activated again."
"I never expected it... God's Chosen, the light of God's Chosen!"
Elex lavished him with praise. Clearly, he was quite satisfied with Long Haochen's talent. However, this was only a recording, so there was not much excitement to it.
Yet at the same time, the pillar of light around Long Xingyu underwent an immense change. Its former grayish-white color instantly turned crimson-gold, dazzlingly brilliant as it burst toward the heavens.
It overshadowed the radiant light around Long Haochen.
This crimson-gold light even caused the entire Tower of Eternity to tremble. Its influence, carried along with the undead aura, spread all the way to the very peak.
The seventh floor of the Tower of Eternity.
The Tower of Eternity.
Seventh floor.
At this moment, a grayish-white spherical mass floated within it, gleaming with dense Soul Power. Though it was merely a soul body—
Even as a soul, he remained a terrifying existence possessing the strongest abilities in this world.
Yes, he was the Necromancer Saint Mage, Elex!
Previously, he had already been asleep for thousands of years. He had not revived, even when Long Haochen had just released the physique of the Son of Light.
That had merely stirred him slightly; it had not truly awakened him.
But—
Long Xingyu's actions directly frightened him awake.
The physique of the Son of Light might stir Elex, but who was not a Son of Light?
Though Elex indeed needed an inheritor, he would never lower his own status.
But—
Long Xingyu's circumstances were rather special.
What kind of equipment was this crimson-gold light?
Why did it feel so unfamiliar?
Moreover, his physique did not match the abilities he displayed.
"Seventy-eight points of Innate Inner Spiritual Power is an excellent physique, but why does he give me the same feeling as so many God's Chosen? And why can I not detect any bottleneck within him?"
Elex looked toward Long Xingyu, asking in confusion. When judging people, he first looked at talent, and Long Xingyu's talent was indeed extremely terrifying.
Coupled with that ability to cultivate at triple speed, he was already no weaker than—perhaps even stronger than—many God's Chosen!
But talent was another matter. What intrigued Elex most were the other things Long Xingyu possessed, things unfamiliar even to him!
Elex wanted to see.
Just what was it?
After Elex conducted a thorough inspection, he suddenly froze in place. His brows furrowed as he stared inside, seemingly hesitating and pondering something.
"This throne?"
"How profound. Not only is it an artifact-level existence, but it also contains the true True Meaning of Slaughter and the Dao aura of the Slaughter God Position."
"Furthermore, there is a trace of the Creation God's aura within it, blocking me off."
"I can even sense the possibility of self-evolution within it. And it is not the evolution of a Great Divine Artifact, but the evolution of a Super Divine Artifact! Moreover, this evolution has already begun."
Elex stared blankly at it, a strange gleam flashing through his eyes.
Self-evolution!
One had to know that although his Tower of Eternity was also a Super Divine Artifact, it had only become one after he had poured countless resources into it, including no shortage of artifacts and Great Divine Artifacts.
He had then refined and enhanced it. The resources and effort he had expended could already have created countless Super Divine Artifacts.
And what Elex envied most—
Was precisely the possibility of self-evolution.
There were many pieces of equipment on the Holy Demon Continent that could evolve on their own.
But self-evolving artifacts—even with Elex's vast knowledge, he could say this with certainty!
None!
Absolutely none, not a single one!
This throne's ability to evolve was undoubtedly connected to Long Xingyu himself.
This time, Elex became immensely curious about Long Xingyu.
"If it is this man, then should he truly inherit my legacy, the arts of necromancy may perhaps shine once more in his hands. In any era, an existence with such strength would stand among the upper ranks of the present age. That will not change."
"And with his strength, it will certainly not be difficult for him to enter the seventh floor of the Tower of Eternity and come here to meet me. In that case, my legacy will be well passed on before I die!"
Elex thought to himself.
Moreover, through their bloodline connection, he could sense the father-son relationship between Long Xingyu and Son of Light Long Haochen. There was surely not much estrangement between them.
In other words, his necromancy inheritance could be given to two suitable geniuses to cultivate.
Elex had always accepted disciples based solely on talent and comprehension, never taking them in carelessly. But if both were suitable, he would not mind accepting them both.
"Since that is the case, the Eternal Melody will also have a suitable master." After considering everything, Elex silently made a decision.
First floor of the Tower of Eternity.
At this moment, the aura gradually faded away.
Long Xingyu raised his head and looked toward the sky.
He gave an indifferent smile.
After being stimulated by triple speed and the Divine Seal Throne, Elex had probably awakened by now, hadn't he?
He should be preparing to come down as well, right?
At this moment, the voice beside them also changed.
"My dear disciple, this is my token, the Eternal Melody, it is..." At that moment, an exceedingly gentle crystal skull flew over.
It flew from afar toward Long Haochen.
However, it did not fly solely toward Long Haochen. Instead, it split into two midway.
One half flew straight toward Long Haochen.
The other half flew toward Long Xingyu. Long Xingyu spotted it immediately and, quick-eyed and quick-handed, reached out and caught it.
It was a necklace shaped like a crystal skull, sparkling with dazzling Light Energy that made one yearn for it.
"This is equipment forged from the skull of the first Pope of the Glorious Holy Court, an artifact—the Eternal Melody."
