Divine Seal: God Descends, Holy Priest Riding a Black Dragon

Chapter 56 Lost History

The story of the necromancer is quite long.

Long Haochen cleared his throat and began to tell Wen Tai a story.

Thirteen thousand years ago, humanity transitioned from the ancient era to a glorious one, experiencing a period of rapid development spanning seven thousand years. It was during these seven thousand years that humanity established its dominant position on the Holy Demon Continent.

How powerful were humans back then? Three empires, each several times stronger than the Temple Alliance.

If the seventy-two pillar demon gods were to descend during this period, you would see His Majesty the Demon God being surrounded and kicked by hundreds of ninth-tier powerhouses.

The rebellious demonic dragons will also become the mounts used by the royal families of the three great empires when traveling.

However, just before the arrival of the seventy-two demon gods, the three great empires encountered some trouble, which almost led to the demons raiding their homes!

That catastrophe was caused by a terrifying necromancer who ignited a war that swept across the entire continent.

The causes of the war have long been lost to history, but the consequences were extremely severe. The three great empires were destroyed, the glorious Papacy was severely weakened, and necromancers were wiped out!
The once glorious Papacy led the strongest human race, but in one battle, it was almost completely wiped out, with His Holiness the Pope and the leader of the necromancers perishing together.

It can be said that if the necromancer had not caused the catastrophe, humanity would not have been in such a sorry state after the seventy-two demon gods descended!
Unfortunately, humanity can only learn from history, not change it.

The original work only briefly mentions necromancers, lacking the details that Long Haochen recounts.

After listening to Long Haochen's story, Wen Tai said ambiguously, "Then we've really struck it rich this time. Didn't you hear that voice say he was called the Necromancer Saint Mage and the Long-Sleeping Calamity? He might be the leader of the Necromancers!"

Long Haochen stopped Wen Tai and said, "Wen Tai, calm down first. Necromancers are a taboo of the Holy Temple Alliance. The Holy Alliance will not allow necromancers to reappear in the world."

"Haochen, don't worry, my mind is perfectly clear. Besides, I have absolutely no interest in necromancy. I'm just wondering if this Electrox really is the leader of the necromancers, then maybe he left behind a lot of treasures." Wen Tai waved his hand, knowing what Long Haochen was worried about.

To be honest, Wen Tai doesn't think much of Electrolux's legacy!

Uriel's authority extends to the underworld, which is far more advanced than necromancy.

However, the moment the two stepped in, the tower gate behind them closed. Given the tower master's strength, they would definitely not be able to pass through here without passing the test of the first level.

"Now, let me test your attributes and see what kind of necromancer you are."

Not long after, the tower master's voice rang out again.

Upon hearing this request, Wen Tai's expression remained calm, but Long Haochen immediately became anxious.

Necromancers can possess multiple attributes, but they should never be of the Light attribute; anyone would be anxious about that.

Before the two could react, the pale light had already descended, landing precisely on Wen Tai and Long Haochen.

About ten seconds later, a special voice was activated.

"Is this true? Has my message really been activated? If so, I am so happy... You are a necromancer with the same light attribute as me. This will be a perfect inheritance! Divine favor, it is the light favored by the gods."

Electrolux, unaware of the context, uttered a string of Tang Dynasty-style words.

The famous 21st-century chess master said, "Dude, you've really finished me off."

Wen Tai didn't know whether the voice was talking about him or Long Haochen, since both he and Long Haochen possessed the attribute of light.

The grayish-white light flickered again, but this time only in certain areas. A necklace appeared out of thin air in front of the two of them. The necklace itself was made of white, transparent gemstones the size of soybeans, and the gemstones emitted a faint white fluorescence.

The gentle, luminous aura gives one a sense of warmth from the heart; it would be even better if the pendant wasn't shaped like a skull.

"Who will it be given to..."

Wen Tai's gaze was fixed on the necklace, wondering who Electrolux had chosen.

The necklace was floating in mid-air, completely bewildered. How could there be two people here?

One is the Child of Light, with an innate spiritual power of ninety-seven!
One is a god-like child with an innate spiritual power of 150!

Given that both possess the Light attribute, it's obvious which one to choose.

The necklace slowly floated towards Wen Tai's direction.

“My dear apprentice, this is my token. Fortunately, you are not one of those filthy dark necromancers, otherwise I would have had to abandon you.”

"This necklace has been with me for 896 years, until the moment I fell into slumber. Oh, remember, do not let the people of the Glorious Church see it, because its material is the skull of the first Pope of the Glorious Church."

Wen Tai: 6
The priesthood is the core profession passed down from the glorious Vatican, and Wen Tai has now become a figure of great filial piety.

"The necklace is called Eternal Melody. It is my keepsake and the key to unlocking the eternal slumber. If you have any absolutely trustworthy partners in the future, you can bring them here to gain experience. Of course, the premise is that they cannot be those who possess the dark attributes that I hate the most."

Electrolux even resorted to racism, discriminating against dark creatures despite dealing with the undead himself.

The Eternal Melody slowly approached Wen Tai, and the viscous and warm light element poured into his body. The Eternal Melody quietly appeared on his neck, and the skull, like a transparent crystal, hung down on his chest.

"Yeah~~~"

Wen Tai couldn't help but groan with pleasure. Light, the gentlest element, calmly merged into his body, and his liquid spiritual power steadily increased.

After the sixth rank, the difference in spiritual power between ranks becomes extremely large.

Wen Tai increased his spiritual power by five or six hundred, soaring from 4199 to 4720, but his level only jumped from level one to level two.

Long Haochen looked at Wen Tai, his eyes not filled with jealousy, but with a sense of loss, as if he had lost something important.

"Go forward, child. From this moment on, everything here is yours. Even without any trials, you can leave at any time. I look forward to seeing you before me soon."

Electrolux's voice appeared again, but what he said made Wen Tai and Long Haochen overjoyed.

While incorporating the eternal melody, Vente is also incorporating the legacy of Electrolux.

However, Wen Tai didn't think much of necromancy; instead, he was interested in methods that combined light and the dead.

Using the power of light to command the dead—perhaps only Electrox could do that, throughout history and into the future.

“Wen Tai… never mind, let’s leave quickly.” Long Haochen said hesitantly.
