Chapter 500: Star King (II)

<h1></h1>

No wonder… No wonder some said that a Starlight Unicorn is the optimum mount for a knight. It turned out that he would give such a large boost to him, or at least, if compared to Haoyue, the boost of Little Light alone wouldn’t be sufficient to match Star King’s. Although Yating also had a pure light attribute, she wasn’t the same as Star King. In comparison, Yating’s help was more general, while Star King’s specialization was boosts. The attacks of Starlight Unicorns were generally not their key strength.

When riding Star King, Long Haochen really felt as if he had already become a knight of the ninth step.

But unfortunately, the distance separating him from the rank of Divine Knight was still very large. According to his estimate, he would need at least three more years to gain the possibility of breaking through. Of course, these three years would certainly be extended due to the large barrier represented by the extension of the ninth spiritual cavity.

Less than half an hour later, Star King brought Long Haochen to the foggy area surrounding the Knights’ Sacred Mountain. As he hovered above the ground, Long Haochen jumped down from his back, and after having a small talk with the elder of the Knights’ Saint Mountain, he finally brought Star King out from the Knights’ Saint Mountain.

“Star King, seeing that there is no contract between the two of us, if I need to conceal you, would you be able to return to the Knights’ Saint Mountain?” Long Haochen asked.

Star King shook its head, “There is no need for that. Even if there was a contract, this wouldn’t be necessary. We Starlight Unicorns have our own methods.”

While saying that, Star King raised his head, and his forehead was lit with the shape of a five-pointed star. Rich golden light gathered from that star, and with a flash of golden light, this star surprisingly came out from his forehead, landing in Long Haochen’s hand.

“I can enter this gold star. After entering, I will begin a state of dormant cultivation, waiting for your summons.”

Long Haochen had a flash of realization, “So it turns out that this is the reason for being named Starlight Unicorns, right?”

Star King replied, “Whenever we activate this ability, we will turn into a hidden star. Need me to conceal myself?”

Long Haochen shook his head and handed the gold star back to Star King. Lowering his head, he rapidly placed it back in his forehead.

“Let’s go.” Long Haochen’s eyes were flashing: his journey for the ten million contribution points had begun.

Returning to Star King’s back, he had Star King run a few steps while unfolding his wings, heading straight for the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass under Long Haochen’s lead.

“Slow down, Star King.” The Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass having already come intoview, Long Haochen suddenly patted Star King’s back. A dark golden mask was put on his face in the meantime.

Star King kept flying and gave Long Haochen a glance, while ripples that served to communicate once again came out from its horn; “Haochen, I am sensing some danger drawing close.”

Long Haochen revealed a smile, “It is for this ‘danger’ that we are waiting. I was afraid they wouldn’t catch up.” In terms of perception, how could he be lacking in comparison to Star King? Given the great fanfare that he showed while returning on Star King’s back, it would be strange to not attract the demons’ attention. However, Long Haochen was now concealed behind his cloak, making these demons unable to even discern his face behind the Gold Essence Foundation Armor. But Star King was a king amongst Starlight Unicorns, magical beast of the ninth rank, and equivalent to a powerhouse of the eighth step. Just seeing him ride it was a proof of Long Haochen’s status.

The reactions of the demons that had just discovered a knight left on his own were as one might well imagine. Of course, Long Haochen didn’t place himself in a dangerous situation. First, this place was pretty close to the Knight Temple; and secondly, given his cultivation and equipment, escaping would be no issue. More importantly, with the current level reached by his mental force, catching him by surprise would be very difficult. Relying on the boost from his Gold Essence Foundation Armor, his perception could range up to fifty kilometers outwards, although his senses would become more vague as the distance increased.

With his senses, he perceived that the most powerful demon standing in his way had the strength of the eighth step.

This was where the journey for the ten million contribution points would start.

Star King kept flying at a normal flying speed. Although he didn’t have a formal contract with Long Haochen and was unable to link with him mentally, Starlight Unicorns were not known as the most fitting mounts for a knight for nothing. With a mere signal, he immediately started a counterattack, always responding to Long Haochen’s expectations with his actions. For instance, just by sensing Long Haochen’s left leg tensing up, Star King would head for the left side, with an inclination depending on the strength Long Haochen put into his leg. In the meanwhile, a soft light essence was already being transferred from Star King to Long Haochen’s body.

Long Haochen slowly shut his eyes, letting the internal spiritual energy in him rise up. A rich fog of light started to surround his body, it was Storing Power.

In the distance, ten figures were chasing after Long Haochen at lightning speed. As they approached, the sky became dimmer and dimmer.

A knight riding a Starlight Unicorn out on his own? Could there be a better opportunity for them? After hearing this news, they immediately rushed forwards at their fastest speed.

The powerhouse leading the group had the features of a Fiend Clan powerhouse. He had two horns on his head, a ferocious looking face, was over three meters tall, and an immense pair of wings was flapping on his back, accelerating his flight. In his right hand was a blood colored sword covered in black flames, and his body was surrounded with a smell of darkness. That was a Fiend Commander.

On his back were a group of Fiend clansmen, only they were not as powerful as that one, reaching about the seventh step in strength.

No mistake, this was a team of Demon Hunter Removers, fully constituted of Fiend clansmen.

As the area outside of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was under the supervision of the Death Demon God Saminaga, he naturally brought his direct subordinates along, forming an army of Fiends; though encountering a team of Demon Hunter Removers formed of only one race was still a pretty rare occurrence. This squad before Haochen’s eyes was formed pretty recently, intended to deal with the situation at the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

Just as Yang Haohan said, the demons couldn’t possibly encircle the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass completely. They clearly didn’t have enough powerhouses for that: if they tried, their forces would undoubtedly be scattered extremely thin, and would hardly avoid the fate of being disposed of one at a time by the Knight Temple.

Therefore, the Death Demon God Saminaga went for the strategy of placing the sides of the mountain under surveillance, so that if a large group of human reinforcements came in a rush, they would be able to deploy some soldiers to intercept and ambush them.

Only, Saminaga didn’t expect that the resources accumulated in the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass would be so rich. This Holy War had already gone on for more than a year and a half, yet the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass seemed just as invulnerable as before.

So for now, these Demon Hunter Removers were specialized to combat the scouts of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass. Even if they appeared not to have need of supplies, the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass would nevertheless need to communicate with the Temple Alliance. For that sake, they were bound to dispatch scouts. And as a measure against them, the demons arranged some Demon Hunter Removers, acting as small teams that were specialized at disposing of the enemy scouts, and had been successful at this task several times already.

A team of Demon Hunter Removers constituted entirely of Fiends. In terms of synergy, maybe they wouldn’t be as effective as an ordinary team formed of various races, but they were able to move faster and react even more effectively, as well as listening to the direct orders from the Death Demon God Saminaga.

“Star King, accelerate.” At the time this group of Fiends appeared in Long Haochen’s field of view, he immediately gave Star King the order to accelerate.

A thin golden fog appeared more clearly as Star King kept accelerating, and was already faintly visible. But if one didn’t pay attention, he would basically not notice it, in addition to that, as Star King was flying, he led a golden six-pointed-star to envelop him, keeping Long Haochen’s Storing Power concealed.

Finding out about Long Haochen’s acceleration, the Fiend Commander had an evil grin on his face. Abruptly flapping the wings on his back, he unleashed some black light, shooting out like black flames and pushing him to accelerate at full force, without consideration for the consumption of his spiritual energy. As he took the initiative to chase after Long Haochen, a gap created itself between the other Fiends and him, which were naturally falling behind gradually.

Long Haochen’s eyes slowly opened, his eye’s current expression appearing as limpid as when he just woke up from his long state of deep meditation. But this time, it carried a chill that wasn’t present at that time.

Star King’s flying speed was growing faster and faster, indistinctly carrying an illusory feel. Even with Long Haochen on his back, his flying speed was not at all inferior to the Fiend Commander’s flat-out acceleration. Both sides maintained the same distance as they approached the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.

Finding out that his acceleration was insufficient, that Fiend Commander immediately became anxious. As he unleashed a punch with his empty left hand, it abruptly burst out with a dark red light, producing an intense explosion in the air. Its propelling power caused his speed to rise once again.

This method of accelerating came with a considerable consumption of spiritual energy and couldn’t be used for too long. Yet it had the benefit that it would enable him to raise his speed beyond his limits.

Although this Fiend Commander didn’t know about Long Haochen’s cultivation, he seemed to be sure that this was at least a knight at the seventh step from the looks of the Starlight Unicorn King. Killing such a knight would be a considerably great contribution, to say nothing about the Starlight Unicorn. What the demons liked the most was food, and although they loathed light attribute the most, their favorite food was magical beasts of the light element. That meat was especially tender from their point of view.

Long Haochen’s legs slightly sped up as he sat backwards, and Star King immediately understood his intention. Quietly reducing the frequency at which he batted his wings, he inclined to the side, and drew a magnificent arc in a high spot in midair.

This was a large arc that was traced as the Fiend Commander following him kept nearing closer and closer, but it didn’t change the fact that the Fiends of the seventh step were still lagging behind.

Swish.?Star King’s wings let out an air severing sound, and his figure turned around in the midst of this arc, heading straight at that Fiend Commander.
