Long Haochen/Abilities

## Scion of Light

After his awakening ceremony, he came to possess the physique of the Scion Of Light. This greatly changed any abilities that Haochen uses. These changes include changes in power, a lower spiritual energy consumption, and a longer duration. With this physique, Long Haochen's affinity with the light attribute increased and his mental capacity. He is able to initiate more skills at one duration with this physique. As the inborn Scion of Light, he is extremely sensitive, especially in feeling good and bad intents of the people around him.

### Divine Awakening

He completed his divine awakening or awakening as a God's Chosen One in the Illusory Paradise during his second battle with Ah'Bao to protect Ye Xiaolei.

Awakening as a god's choosen one of Scion of Light, provided a general boost, including the blessing of the Goddess of Light. As for his affinity with the light element, it was raised to a whole new level.

After completing his awakening as a god’s chosen one, Long Haochen’s originally internal spiritual energy of pure holy light element did not only gain even greater sacred effects, but also became even more compressed. It was the same for Lin Xin who had obtained the Spiritual Stove of Heart of Flames; his light properties had gained a qualitative change, restraining all these undeads of darkness attribute.

### Heart of Light

Being the Scion of Light, Long Haochen has the natural talent of "Heart of Light" which ignites his fighting spirit and gives a great quality needed for knights, to make decisions in a fight neglecting their emotions at that point.

## Abilities

These skills are used by both Guardian and Retribution Knights.

### Power Storing

A shared skill between Retribution and Guardian Knights, it is normally learnt by 5th step Earth or Airborne Knights. The skill is to store up spiritual energy for one attack since the stored up energy only last for 3 seconds. However since Hao Chen possess the Scion of Light the duration increased to 4 seconds. It could also be used as a cultivating method however it requires the user to completely exhaust their inner spiritual power. This resulted in LHC to evolve his Saint Spiritual Stove for the first time.

### Sacrifice

This can be learnt by either a Retribution or Guardian Knight, however it requires them to be at the 7th step to learn this unless it was down from a inheritance ring. This requires all the ten standards of a knight and is very dangerous to the user as it consumes blood and gives the user sustainable injuries.

It was also because of his Scion of Light physique, possessing the most pure spiritual energy made of holy light possible. Even though [Sacrifice]’s consumption was frightening, because of the purity of his internal spiritual energy, this consumption only had the effect of arousing his potential and igniting his senses.

### Spiritual Condensed Weapon Creation

A fifth step knight skill. With this skill, liquid spiritual energy materializes into weapons. However it's consumption is very high, even with the physique of the Scion of Light costing 500 units of spiritual energy.

### Ascending Dragon Strike

This is a shared skill among fifth step Retribution and Guardian knights. When used, the user will emit out a resonant Dragon cry and holy internal spiritual energy turns into scales and surrounds their body.

[Ascending Dragon Strike] wasn’t only a skill with an extremely powerful firepower: it was an ability that combined both attack and defense in one.

### Lock/Target Lock

Knight skill used by both specialities, [Lock]. Skill of the sixth step.

Just like [Storing Power], it was an auxiliary skill, but [Target Lock] was an extremely practical skill that all knights who reached the level of Radiant Knight could learn. In the case that an opponent was locked on, all the attacks of the knight who used [Lock] would automatically target it. Even [Assault], [Charge] and this kind of abilities aiming in straight line would have the effect of pursuing the target.

### Assault

[Assault], a skill of knight of the fifth step.

It is a skill used to charge at enemies and it increases the speed of the user.

As nimble as wind and as scorching as fire, his whole body launched [Assault], appearing like a bolt of lightning, and directly aiming for his opponent.

### Sword Intent

Sword Intent is an ability which anyone can acquire provided he uses the sword and and had talent in the way of the swords and had a high enough understanding of the swords and sword intent.

It is his most powerful ability as it can boost any other ability which he uses and it can also be used separately.

### Brilliant Body

[Brilliant Body], the formidable signature ability belonging to knights of the seventh step. The embodiment of light, and the fusion with light.

To him, using Brilliant Body didn’t come with an excessive consumption. The Brilliant Body he had as a god’s chosen one had a special property, making it a perpetual Brilliant Body. Just by using spiritual energy normally, the boost from Brilliant Body would immediately appear, without need to consume extra spiritual energy.

With a stronger cultivation, the boost of one’s natural talent to his strength would increase.

### Complete Brilliant Body

Concealed behind the Golden Foundation Armor, Long Haochen’s body turned into a transparent golden color. A **Complete Brilliant Body!**

### Spiritual Highland

Spiritual Highland is an ability specific to the three close quarters vocations of the Temple Alliance, and one of the most basic ability of human powerhouses of the eighth step.

After one’s spiritual energy breaks through 30,000 units, he requires four spiritual cavities, to break through the eighth step and continue his cultivation. Seemingly, not every human at the eighth step has his fourth spiritual cavity at the same location, making everyone’s cultivations have different characteristic. For instance, Long Haochen’s fourth spiritual cavity was established in his right shoulder.

After the spiritual energy breaks through 30,000 units, the liquid spiritual energy in a human’s body reaches a terrifying density. Although some spiritual cavities will restraint this phenomenon, after spiritual energy condenses to a certain extent, an effect of solidification will be produced.

Spiritual Highland enables one’s solidified spiritual energy to burst out instantly, producing a powerful strength. Even for a powerhouse of the eighth step th a massive consumption of spiritual energy would occur from using this powerful ability, and wouldn’t be able to propagate the effect. In other words, Spiritual Highland is only useable in an area in contact of one’s skin.

Originally, at the time Long Haochen and his father were in Odin Town, Long Xingyu relied on his domineering strength to instantly kill a large amount of demon powerhouses, he actually used the external Spiritual Highland. Of course, it was through the great amplification of his Divine Throne that he reinforced the power of his Spiritual Highland, otherwise it wouldn’t have reached such a level.

### Light of Trial

A pure and holy white light was shot from the tip of that heavy sword

**Light of Trial!** A single-targeted offensive spell of the eighth step learnt by both Guardian and Retribution Knights.

The offensive power of Light of Trial wasn’t considered really brutal, or at least not among light elemental spells of the eighth step. But it had extreme purifying effects. In other words, it would show an extremely severe might against opponents of darkness element, but would be extremely lacking against opponents of other attributes.

## Exclusive Skills

These skills are either created or obtained by Long Haochen. (Obtains refers to he obtaining the skill for the first ever time in humanity).

### Bright Rain of The Thrusting Hibiscus

It is the supplementary ability of the weapon, Blue Rain Hibiscus of Light. A blue and golden colored radiance was hovering and spinning at high speed, condensing into the shape of a sharp cone and ferociously striking Gao Yingjie’s back, aiming to penetrate the thick layer of defense of the Mithril Foundation Armor. Water causing multiple holes, overwhelming and penetrating light; it was the effects brought by the supplementary ability of Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light; Bright Rain of the Thrusting Hibiscus.

### **Raise Flowers Into Trees**

A secret skill recieved from Sheng Lingxin and created by Sheng Yue. It is support type skill in which you can store any skill within your body for the duration of one hour and you can use it anytime you want without using any spiritual energy and it doesn't also affect the restoration of your spiritual energy.

### Asura Strike

When Long Haochen visited the Sanctuary of Eternity and became Elux's disciple, he got this skill. It can evade all attacks within 5m and can tear apart enemies. It was impossible to avoid at a certain range while attacking in a straight line.

### Asura Thrust

He got this skill on the first Floor of Tower of Eternity. Asura Thrust condensed a little more spiritual energy, and increased the power even further, but it also consumed a monstrous amount of spiritual energy. In numbers, over 2,000 units. It could also be used in combination with strengthening abilities like Storing Power. The offensive power of Asura Thrust was about three times the power produced by a peak attack of the same scale. That was to say, with Long Haochen’s internal spiritual energy reaching 4,100 units, Asura Thrust would consume 2,000 units of spiritual energy to produce the power of 6,000 units of spiritual energy. And if he poured his whole internal spiritual energy in the attack, its power would then burst out to a whole new level, reaching a power of more than 12,000 units of spiritual energy.

### Ripples of Light

A self-created technique by Long Haochen. This is achieved through utmost understanding of energy fluctuations i.e, in the Desolate Hissing Cave, strange hissing sounds left powerful impacts. The understanding of how energy can be utilized in a similar manner is this technique. This strengthens abilities (offensive and defensive) in a terrifying manner but involves great consumption of spiritual energy. Only close quarters attackers/defenders can learn this.

### Necromancer Skills

Earned when LHC visited Sanctuary of Eternity.

### Demon Wiping Flash

A self-created technique by Long Haochen. It is similar to Lightning Thorn but much powerful. This was stemmed from Lightning Thorn and is created using the help of Ripples of Light and The Hibiscus of Light. It took him almost a month to create this. This involves stabbing profusely at a target. It can be combined with other attacks. It's consumption is considerable.

### Thousand Strikes As One

It is a self created technique of Long Haochen. In this attack he slashed and stabs the sword almost a thousand times and when it reaches the target it combines as one and hit him at one spot and it is also used in conjunction with Demon Wiping Flash and Ripples of Light.

It is so powerful that even Ah'bao who has more 20000 external spiritual energy was still injured by this attack though it was a minor injury.

### Inner Holy Fire

This was the ability acquired after his awakening as a god’s chosen one, Inner Holy Fire. In other words, all of Long Haochen’s attack would carry the effects from Holy Fire in its use.

Holy Fire was an ability that other knights could also learn, but they had to reach the seventh step for that. In addition, in case of use, Holy Fire would deplete a massive amount of spiritual energy. However, as a god’s chosen one, Long Haochen didn’t have to worry about this.

It could be said that after his awakening, the superiority of Long Haochen’s physique as the Scion of Light was in full swing, enabling him to surpass all knights of his same rank by a great margin.

### Spiritual Ignition

This is an ability gained after awakening as a god’s chosen one and it's an ability related to Goddess of Light. The ability made his body gleam with a white flame and enabled him to ignite his own spirit and spiritual energy to give a great boost to his own power. The produced might even exceeded his past Sacrifice ability by a lot, but Spiritual Ignition also had important side effects. After using it once, Long Haochen would be in a weak state for seven days. Using it wantonly would actually even cause a major decline of his strength, even threatening his own life.

### Light Treatment

A method of self-recovery and to increase the self-healing that he discovered when he was seriously injured. It accelerated his healing process and self recovery of his body.

### God Descent Technique

In itself, the God Descent Technique was a forbidden spell of an incomparably strong kind, enabling one to borrow the force of a real god to amplify oneself.

It was actually not Long Haochen nor Yating’s technique, but a fused technique that could perhaps be said to be born from the fusion between spiritual stoves.

After absorbing Elux’s special qualities as Scion of Light, he was not able to make use of God’s Descent any longer. That was because his spiritual energy reached the quality of a light god, an existence able to contend with the Goddess of Light.

### Holy Mantle Illusion

Recently, Long Haochen had researched a new technique for himself that had a single purpose; to obstruct the enemy’s’ line of sight. Simply described, this could be called a Holy Mantle made of illusion, without any practical defensive or amplifying ability, and easily pierceable by any attack or creature, but only blocking the line of sight of any outsider.

Actually this technique wasn’t a hard thing to produce. Long Haochen’s inspiration came from his own Ripples of Light. By reduce the vibrating frequency a bit, and controlling the output of spiritual energy with more dexterity, his goal was attained. He had tried it out a lot of times already, and just as one could see right here, his creation was successful.

He made it especially because of his current circumstances. This was related to a matter he used to be helpless about, which was his current identity which could be leaked out. But the enemies won’t care about that. Therefore, this barrier was absolutely not aimed at countering enemies, but created solely for Long Haochen’s sake, to conceal his personal abilities.

## Retribution Knights

### Thorny Charge

This is a skill that is only capable of third step knight and above and it is able to raise the speed of the attack and, at the same time to gather the spiritual energy.

### Pure White Edge

The first skill Hao Chen learnt from his teacher and father, Long Xingyu. It is a skill that increases the users striking power as the user charge toward their opponent.

### Instant Blast Cross Cut

Involves using two sword for this skill, both sword slashing at the same time forming a cross.

### Heavenly Battle Array

It is a skill of Retribution Knights of the third step that draws support from the particular holy light of the knight and takes the shape of a layer of light with an effect similar to an all-out defense formed of spiritual energy.

### Shining Sunlight Strike

A 4th step knight skill. The skill involves using his spiritual energy onto a weapon or an equipment (shield).

### Holy Sword

The ultimate Retribution Knight skill of the fifth step. While possessing a tyrannical offensive power, this skill had a supplementary effect on creatures with a dark attribute, doubling the damage.

An incandescent luster shone, instantly amplifying. But there was a fundamental difference with [Shining Solar Strike]. It was that the Light Sword’s radiance wasn’t scattering, but completely concentrated in the sword. It seemed that the Light Sword was becoming immaterial, and could break through anything, as a holy aura was emanating from the Light Sword.

Long Hao Chen recited some incantations in a low voice, and this Light Sword revealed a change. At first glance, it looked like a [Pure White Edge], but compared to [Pure White Edge], the current Light Sword was superior by far, regardless of whether it was in terms of quality and purity of the spiritual energy, in terms of density of the holy aura emitted, or in terms of burden to the user.

The ability Holy Sword was originally could only be used on one’s weapon, but later in the series, Long Haochen made use of his comprehension toward sword intent and control over the light element as a god’s chosen one, to turn his whole body into the Holy Sword state.

### Condemning Revoving Sword

A purely offensive skill that once mastered can display murderous power. This skill was made by Long Xingyu.

[Condemning Revolving Sword]’s essence was in borrowing force to create an opportunity. From one point of view, it was kind of similar to [Storing Power], except for the fact that the amplification was even greater than that of [Storing Power]. A firm and unyielding attack, but unsuited against fast opponents. It was because if it couldn’t keep attacking the opponent, there was no way for the firepower to be accumulated.

He later improved and evolved it after becoming a God's Chosen One.

### Nine Long FootWorks

A Retribution footwork which was created by Long Xingyu and was passed on to Long Haochen. This was slightly changed by Haochen. This footwork contains nine steps, suiting different kinds of battles. The nimblest of the nine steps, the Mild Long Footwork is suited for crowd battles. The steadiest of them, the sturdy Suppressing Long Footwork was used to face single powerful enemies. Long Haochen prefers to use this footwork.

### Bright Vengeance

The ability formed along with Divine Obstruction to reflect some damage back to the enemy. An obstruction skill used after Divine Obstruction which absorbs with opponent's energy and then attacks with that power.

### Lightning Thrust

This skill is similar to Thorny Charge however the different between the two is that Lightning Thrust can change direction.

### Lightning Cut

This skill is a third step knight skill practiced by both Retribution Knights and Guardian Knights and consumed 50 units of spiritual energy. By withdrawing sacred power from the body, one can condense it into a blade to attack enemies. The attacking distance and power are proportional to one’s own level of spiritual energy. Even though it's a third step knight skill only Genuine Knights who were fifth ranked or above could use [Lightning Cut] to its full extent. As a knight ranked up and had more spiritual energy, the power of the skill also increased.

### Shining Solar Cut

Another long range skill and it consumes 50 unit of spiritual energy. This skill is a lot stronger than Lightning Cut even though it requires the same amount of spiritual energy.

### Last Gambit

[Last Gambit], skill of Retribution Knights of the fifth step.

[Last Gambit] was something he unlocked after having reached the fifth step of cultivation, as his breakthrough broke another seal of his Inheritance Ring. The Light Sword turned into a glittering white light, directly aiming for the lich.

### Holy/Sunlight Fire

It is a skill of the fifth step. This skill required his spiritual energy to advance to the second rank of the fifth step for one to possibly use it.

Light and fire were originally the same entity. The flames of the sun were as blazing as the flame produced by a pure light with a very high temperature. A luminous darkness corroded everything. To Retribution Knights, this skill possessed enormous utility. It was classified as one of the secret skills, and also a skill Retribution Knights of the fifth step had to learn sooner or later.

This skill had great power, and a great utility in regard to offense, defense and dispelling negative effects. However, behind this formidable power, the consumption was also enormous. Launching this skill required 200 units of liquid spiritual energy, and maintaining it consumed 30 units every breath. Even knights of the fifth step had to controll it moderately after launching it.

### Holy Flower

An ability of the sixth step which can be used in the state of Holy Sword. The white color covering the sword was of course a result from Holy Sword, but that white edge of light was a particular attack in the state of Holy Sword, called Holy Flower.

### Storm of Swords/Blades Storm

Retribution Knight skill of the seventh step, Storm of Blades.

Storm of Swords was a powerful ability which affected a large area. It could be called an upgraded version of the warriors’ Tornado Strike. With a stronger spiritual energy and a stronger weapon, it would gain in power as well.

When using this ability, Long Haochen turned everything in an area of thirty meters into an ocean of gold, instantly reducing two dozen Jacques Demons to broken pieces, entangled in the golden light.

Once again flapping the wings on his back, he made his way into the enemy lines and immediately burst out like a tyrannical golden spiral in the midst of the Jacques Demons.

### Lightspeed Flash

**Lightspeed Flash.** Secret Retribution Knight technique of the seventh step, raising speed instantly, and strengthening one’s imposing manner to the peak all at once.

This technique was not easy to control, to the extent that some Retribution Knights of the eighth step wouldn’t necessarily have full grasp on it. But Long Haochen almost had no preparations nor time to store energy, and directly used this ability to its fullest.

Although Lightspeed Flash couldn’t possibly really reach the speed of light, it was the greatest speed Long Haochen ever reached, enough to match instant teleportation.

### Meteor Shower Strike

A myriad of golden lights burst out in that instant. Everything in the range of a hundred meters was enveloped by the golden light. Within its scope, all the Demonic Wolves and Demonic Bears gushed blood, collapsing like wheat.

That myriad of golden glints came from a powerful offensive ability used by Retribution Knights, called **Meteor Shower Strike**, a Retribution Knight ability of the seventh step.

The single-target offensive power of this ability is not very significant, but its area of effects is very large.

### Holy Floraison

Holy Floraison, a powerful amplifying ability of Retribution Knight.

It came with a massive cost of spiritual energy, and serving for movement and strength amplification, was possibly able to catch the enemy off guard.

### Swords Rain

Myriads of blade projections dispersed unrestrainedly, filling the whole hall with thunderous murderous spirit, as a light essence full of substance blossomed brazenly. It was a **Swords Rain**.

Swords Rain covered an immense area, instantly encompassing all the opponents within the surrounding thirty meters. Every one of the immense sword projections were like the real things, just as if countless images had come out instantly from the Aria of the Goddess of Light to strike at the enemies’ images.

### Three Moves of Brahm

It is a technique created by Xiao Huo and Long Haochen inherited this technique from him.

* **Eye of Brahm**: What Long Haochen saw was a huge golden eye. When Xiao Huo launched the attack, he completely vanished. Afterwards, an overwhelming power appeared before him. In that moment, Long Haochen only felt his body tremble controllably. Countless golden rays of light appeared on his Armour of Eternity. Every ray of golden light gave him a slight stinging pain. The light basically covered every inch of his body, but he was unable to do anything about it at all. He swung his swords and no matter how he used his spiritual energy, it was completely useless against the huge, golden eye. It was like his spiritual energy and all his abilities had become useless in that moment.

* **Fleeting Youth:**  It was the second move out of the three moves he had learnt from Xiao Huo. It was called Fleeting Youth. The move was originally called Fleeting Flory, but Long Haochen merged it with his domain technique of being able to control life, forming a move that was more suitable for him. As a result, he changed the name to Fleeting Youth. Ages the opponent until death.
* **World’s Ultimate**:The purple hexagram suddenly became illusionary, revolving as it distorted, forming a huge purple swirl. In that moment, the world seemed to lose all colour and everything seemed to merge into one. At the same time, in the world without the rays of the sun, moon and stars, a ball of nine-coloured golden light shot out from Long Haochen’s left wrist, fusing with the purple light, before hurling towards the opponent.

## Guardian Knights

### Divine Light Mantle

A third step defensive skill used by Guardian Knights isolating him while producing a sound effect. A defensive skill acting like a monomer.

### Divine Obstruction

It is a obstruction skill, in other words a skill that can block attacks. This is a very high level skill that usually only Radiant knight can learn however Haochen learned this skill from his father who is a Divine Knight. This can obstruct attacks which are three times more powerful than the user's spiritual power.

The [Divine Obstruction] is a skill that can be easily described. It enables one to momentarily transform his defense entirely. Simply said, it causes one’s defense to become like an iron rock so that only attacks that exceed the defensive power of the skill can break through it. However, if the attacks use weapons of the same volume and hardness as an iron rock, when attacking, it cannot possibly break this defense.

[Divine Obstruction] is like the process of the transformation of an ore of iron into a bar of iron. It is easily explained, but extremely hard to do because it takes a lot of talent.

Though, if [Divine Obstruction] is trained to a certain level, it can use at least a part of the power of the opponent’s attack to become its own force and use it for attack as well as defense. Practiced to its utmost potential, [Divine Obstruction]’s defensive power is worthy of being called “divine”.

To possibly break [Divine Obstruction]’s defense, one must have at least three times the spiritual force of the user of [Divine Obstruction].

### Holy Filter Shield

Guardian Knight shield skill that filled the shield with a divine light made of spiritual energy.

### Leaned Shield Unloading Power

Another Guardian Knight skill that empowers the shield.

### Imposing Ring

Guardian Knight skill with the effect of increasing the overall spiritual energy power by 10%. Also one of the basic "Great Halos".

### Holy Mantle

A fourth step Guardian Knight skill that can heal anyone instead the mantle.

[Holy Light Mantle] was a defensive skill that Grand Knight level Guardian Knights were capable of using. The defensive power was not as great as [Divine Light Mantle]’s, but [Holy Light Mantle]’s greatest benefit was the possibility to control the range of the mantle; the bigger the chosen range, the more its defensive power is reduced. More importantly, [Holy Light Mantle] had a supplementary healing effect inside of its range, which made it one of the most useful skills to Guardian Knights. The only defect would be that it consumed an enormous amount of spiritual energy; launching this ability consumed 50 units of internal spiritual energy, and each second sustained would add 5 units to this count.

### Angelic Blessing

A fifth step Guardian Knight skill. This is a ranged skill which can strengthen oneself and their partners. It amplifies both offensive and defensive skills. When this skill is activated, liquid spiritual energy turns to a pair of wings behind the user.

### Spiritual Gathering Halo

A Guardian Knight skill which consumes the user's spiritual energy to increase the recovery rate of his teammates spiritual energy by 30%. This skill was obtained from Long Haochen from the Alliance's Treasure Vault.

### Guardian's Favor

One of the basic "Great Halos".

A golden mark appeared at the top of his head. It was the Guardian Knight ability, [Guardian’s Favor]; when the enemies attacked, [Guardian’s Favor] would immediately increase his defensive capabilities, reducing the attack power of the enemy to a certain extent.

### Faith Halo

One of the basic "Great Halos".

The golden ring turned the nervousness in Long Hao Chen’s group of five into determination, this was the [Faith Halo]. Just like [Guardian Favor], it was a Guardian Knight’s support skill.

### Light Thorn\Thrust

The first long range skill learned by knights.

An incomparably dazzling bright light shone upon the edge of the stadium, and a substantial golden blade edge made of light was launched.

### Chained Obstruction

A Guardian Knight skill which when combined with Divine Obstruction it would give twice the same power in the defensive ability. It is a relatively simple ability. This skill was obtained from Long Haochen from the Alliance's Treasure Vault.

### Shield Charge

The Shield simply sparkled intensely, as a halo of rich light instantly expanded forward, turning into an immense shield with a height of two meters.

### Holy Shield

One of the basic skills if the 6th step. A defensive ability.

### Shield Wall

A Guardian Knight Skill of the 6th step, Shield Wall.

The ability Shield Wall would defend the user from all angles. Although it was not useable in combination with Divine Obstruction, its defensive power was also immense. He simply used his shield in a flash. Then, a golden barrier of light abruptly enveloped him from all around.

### Element Obliterating Halo

This ability had a single use, which was to obliterate any elemental fluctuation, and was one of the strongest abilities of a Guardian Knight of the seventh step.

The reason why it was only at the seventh step was that its effect lasted only for a short instant, and didn’t persist with time. Otherwise it would be a frightening ability on the level of a domain, and even comparable to a forbidden spell.

However, even if it only lasted one instant, this was still a game-breaking ability. Elemental Obliterating Halo was a secret technique employed by the Knight Temple, not something anyone could use.

### Angel's Embrace

A light magic healing spell.

A dense warmth and very pleasurable light rapidly provided nourishment for their bodies. In the midst of sweet sounds, two golden angels appeared out of nowhere, flapping their sets of six wings, and held Zhang Fangfang and Wang Yuanyuan from behind.

### Rain Of Light

A brilliant golden pillar of light appeared from nowhere, illuminating the whole surrounding area. Although Rain of Light was by far incomparable with Sacred Rain, in the end it remained a healing spell of the eighth step, sufficient to cover a circumference of a thousand square meters.

In its range, all the warriors and mages in the Southeastern Mountain Pass were very effectively healed, and the demons let out some greenish smoke, as their offense greatly weakened.

Still, Rain of Light was in the end only a rain of light. Its area of effect, healing efficiency, and duration were all by far incomparable to the supra forbidden spell Sacred Rain.

### Sacred Halo

This was one of the most useful ones in battles against demons. In its area, all the warriors’ attacks gained properties of sacred light. This tremendously increased their killing power against demons, and upon entering its range, the strength of any enemy of the darkness attribute immediately plummeted. This ability is known as Sacred Halo.

## Forbidden Spells

### Holy Rain

It is an upgraded version of the Eighth Step spell, Rain Of Light.

Long Haochen’s fully used spell was called Holy Rain, a light elemental forbidden spell that he had cultivated in the cave. In terms of healing effect, this forbidden healing spell useable by knights was unable to compare with the forbidden healing spell belonging to priests. After all, knights were not specialized in healing like priests.

But this Holy Rain has its own features. The drops of rain are even more gentle in times of healing, and more easily absorbed. Furthermore, the long, steady period of healing and therapeutic relief would not only massively boost one side’s morale and replenish physical power for the targets, but also get rid of negative feelings.

### Light Prayers

This magic already exceeded the scope of the light element, and could be said to be a spell of sacred light, even if the expertise in using sacred light spells was of the Priest Temple, and not the knights.

This spell was also coming from the cave. In there, Long Haochen learnt mostly Guardian Knight abilities, while Light Prayers was carved in its greatest depths. This magic of sacred light was very hard to categorize. Depending on the enemy one faced, its uses would actually differ greatly. It was used as a prayer for safety.

## Domain

### Light God Domain

This is the Domain Ability which Long Haochen acquired after reaching the Ninth Step. He acquired it after being in deep meditation for 4 years in the Tower of Eternity.

In his domain, Long Haochen is the God of Light. If the opponent has a light spiritual energy that is below Long Haochen's, every spiritual energy of light element as well as their power of light will be stripped and given to Long Haochen.

There had never been comparable domains in humankind’s history, and this domain was very clearly not only the bane of any light element powerhouse, but moreover had a very great level of power of its own.

### Self Incarnating Domain

The Self Incarnating Domain was not just melding better with the domain. It was becoming whole with the domain when completely melding with it. He felt like his power had grown at least ten times as great as before. His domain had completely become a part of his body, a part of his power. It was no longer just an ability. The domain was him and he was the domain. The two golden swords in his hands unknowingly shone with multicoloured golden light now, like divine tools.

## Spiritual Stove

### Saint Spiritual Stove

A Spiritual Stove entrusted onto Haochen by his father Long Xingyu. It has a cultivating effect on Haochen and it can make the enemies target him instead of his allies. It is ranked 34th of the 36 spiritual stove a knight can use. The Saint Spiritual Stove can evolve 5 times.

### Light Elemental Spiritual Stove

The Spiritual Stove was gotten from the demons’ logistic teams his Demon Hunt Squad and nine other Demon Hunt Squads killed and was later given Haochen. The Light Elemental Spiritual Stove can evolve 3 times.

## Equipment

### Divine Light Wristguard

It was a gift from Ye Hua, it will create a [Holy Light Mantle], up to three times a day, lasting a minute every time.

### Holy Spirit Set

After Han Qian came to know that Long Haochen's weapon was destroyed before the Top 16 fights so as his Grand-Teacher he gifted this equipment to him as a welcoming gift. This can also be used with mounts.

These pieces were a set of full-body armor, a sword, and a shield. It also has a helmet. These three pieces of equipment were all silver in color, emitting a faint holy aura. It felt like this equipment was the same grade as his own armor and the Light Sword he used before. At most, it was only a bit stronger.

This set of equipment is called the Holy Spirit Set, and is formed of the Holy Spirit Armor, the Holy Spirit Shield, and the Holy Spirit Sword. Separately, they are already at the magical tier, but when the set is gathered and combined together, they can produce a Holy Spirit Ring that can be controlled to be used on allies through your thoughts. In terms of range, this halo covers a diameter of twenty meters. It’s able to take the shape of a [Holy Spirit Supplementary Armor] that protects your body on its surface. To maintain this halo of light, five units of spiritual energy are consumed for every time of a breath. This set of Guardian Knight equipment is pretty good, its effects on the team are in no way small. So, when combined together, this set of equipment is equivalent to Spiritual Tiered equipment.

### Brilliant Holy Armour Set

The Brilliant Holy Armor forms a set of two items along with the former shield, enabling one to use the Guardian Knight ability Holy Spirit Guard, which is of the sixth step. Like for the other two pieces of equipment, it will be instantly launched, consuming 300 units every time. Those two come as a set, and give you a set bonus called Brilliant Command when used together, reducing the consumption of spiritual energy of those two pieces of equipment by a third, while raising its efficiency by a third.This armor was entirely dark golden in color, decorated with simple designs.

This is the Holy Radiant Shield, and it is the second part of the set, possessing the Holy Shield ability. Although it has only a single ability, Holy Radiant Shield’s ability is of the sixth step and perfect for Guardian Knights like you. Just like Bright Discipline, Holy Shield will need to consume spiritual energy to activate instantly. Its consumption is rather high, needing 300 units of spiritual energy for one use, but it lasts for ten minutes.

### Bright Discipline

This sword is called Bright Discipline and it requires the user to be of the light attribute, and his innate internal spiritual energy to exceed seventy.

It is said that this Bright Discipline was handed down from a powerful Retribution Knight, but collected dust for a long time in the Transaction Center. After all, knights whose innate internal spiritual energy is over seventy are just too rare. It is able to launch Instant Holy Sword: though the consumption of spiritual energy will be the same as with normal swords, it will break out instantly. It also carries the Soul Absorption ability. It will return ten units of spiritual energy after it was turned into holy spiritual energy back to the user whenever an enemy is hit.

### Rippling Light

After the Bright Discipline broke Long Haochen brought a new sword of the glorious tier named Rippling Light.

The additional ability carried by the Rippling Light was extremely powerful. When launching an attack, it would make it carry illusory ripples of spiritual energy, launching a second additional attack with roughly a third of the original attack’s strength.

In other words, when using the attack Holy Sword, at the same time, it would launch a second attack with a third of the Holy Sword’s strength. This was also the main reason that made the Twelfth Holy Guard unable to block Long Haochen’s attack.

## Epic Tier Equipment

(Most of them are currently in use by Long Haochen)

### Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light

A spiritual tool, that gets stronger as the owner get stronger. The sword’s blade was 1.1 meters long. The hilt was quite long, with its length of 40 centimeters. In total, the sword was 1.6 meters long. The sword’s edge was gold colored, but it was an understated gold color. On the back of the sword, there were many engravings. All these engravings put together formed a strange hibiscus pattern. The sword hilt resembles a dragon body. This sword is a dual element sword containing light and water element with Light being its primary element. Possessing the physique of the Scion of Light, Haochen became the first one to obtain this spiritual tool. Long Xingyu has once tried getting this tool. Originally a Legendary type equipment, transformed into Epic Tier when Haochen became a Saint Knight.

Later it was fused with Aria of The Goddess of Light to create an even powerful sword that was Divine Sword of Life and Creation. This fusion is temporary and they can again come back in their original form because if Yating which is catalyst for the fusion separates from it, the fusion ends.

### Aria of The Goddess Of Light ( Former )

This sword was obtained by Long Haochen from a VIP auction by special circumstances. Meeting with the descendant of " Ye Wushang", Ye Weiyang of the Warrior Temple, this sword holds extreme prestige. The sword intent of this Epic weapon is extremely Brutal, as it has the potential to slice through Demon Gods like Seere, Andromalius, Allocer etc.

### Domain of Instant Flash

The Domain of Instant Flash is a team gear and it is an equipment of Epic Tier.

The name of Domain of Instant Flash was because this piece of equipment of epic tier had, in some sense, a domain ability attached.

### Gold Essence Foundation Armor

This is an armour which the Knight Temple had in limited amount,only 36, and is more prestigious and powerful than Mythril Foundation Armor since Mythril Foundation Armor required one to be at the seventh step to challenge it's trial, the Gold Essence Foundation Armor needed one to be at the eighth step to challenge it trial.

An Epic Tier weapon which Long Haochen obtained after passing it's trial within the Knight Temple against his grandfather Long Tianying.

An Epic Tier Gold Essence Foundation Armor. It has a smaller volume than the Mythril Foundation Armor, and is less thick. But its amplification effects are beyond comparison with the former.

It symbolized the honor of countless knights and the supremacy of the Knight Temple. Almost every Divine Knight has had a Gold Essence Foundation Armor.

## Divine Tools

### Aria of The Goddess Of Light

It was sword of the 'Hero of a Thousand Years' Holy Divine Sword Wielder Ye Wushang and he had forged it with his own hands.

Later Long Haochen got this sword during the VIP Auction after he was able to awaken it. The sword had placed a seal on itself after its previous owner died in the battle.

When Long Haochen obtained this sword it was at the Legendary Tier but through multiple evolutions it finally became a Divine Sword. But later **Aria of The Goddess** **of Light** was fused with **Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light** to create an even powerful Divine Sword which was the **Divine Sword of Life And Creation**. This fusion is temporary and they can again come back in their original form because if Yating which is catalyst for the fusion separates from it, the fusion ends.

### Divine Snail Shield of Sun And Moon

**Divine Snail Shield of Sun And Moon** is a shield ranked as a divine tool that came from a Divine Snail of Sun and Moon.

When the sun and moon are crossing, it should be a true divine tool, and a considerably powerful one. And in itself, the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon is a divine-tool-ranked being, but it can only manifest itself as being at the epic tier because the user’s basic cultivation is insufficient to let it display its true might. So at Long Haochen's current level of cultivation which is at the 8th step, he can only borrow its power for defense. Which is to say, this shield can adapt itself to its owner’s strength. In other words, had he obtained it with his cultivation being even lower, maybe it would have turned out to be Legendary Equipment instead of Epic Equipment.

### Divine Sword Of Life and Creation

The name of this sword is **Divine Sword of Life And** **Creation.** It is formed by the harmonization and the combination of the Aria of The Goddess Of Light and Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light. But this divine sword was neither the Aria of the Goddess of Light nor Blue Rain, but an extraordinary divine swords born from those two swords.

This divine sword was filled with the power of creation of life in light and water, nurturing this Sword of Creation. It didn’t have the normal multicolored light from a divine tool, but had its own luster, proving that it was already thoroughly surpassing the scope of an ordinary divine tool.

The Sword of Life and Creation had Yating as its soul, and was born from the perfect fusion of the Aria of the Goddess of Light and Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light; yielding a true divine tool far surpassing ordinary ones. Although it was not yet comparable to a supra divine tool such as the Tower of Eternity, it was already approaching the level of the Divine Snail Shield’s true power.

Since it is a sword formed of two swords it could again separate into the previous swords which formed it, which are Aria of The Goddess of Light and Blue Rain, Hibiscus of Light and it is mainly because Yating separated from the sword as she is the catalyst for the fusion as well its sword soul. Therefore it is a temporary fusion.
