The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1377 - 680: Infinite Possibilities_3

Rod was quite confident that the Great Dragon City, this super fortress, had the qualifications. As long as the King’s Descent Ceremony was completed, the city’s Guardian Fire would be linked with the Holy Fire. By then, the King’s power could be projected onto Great Dragon City.

The True King’s avatar of fire would bring them immense power, allowing them to defeat the Blood God and open the celestial gate for the revival of humanity.

And Rod, by relying on the Blood God’s soul, would ascend to another height, gaining the right to face true terror head-on.

Of course, before that, to ensure nothing went wrong, Rod needed to acquire enough divinity and a share of the Divine Soul to ignite the Giant Star’s Eye of Divine.

Moreover, if possible, Rod would try his best to assist Trolian’s strong ones in their enhancement. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

The power of the Blood God left a deep impression on him. This Ancient God, which existed for tens of millions of years, was surely more powerful than a King who had just ascended to a True King. Alone, it would be tough to defeat it.

There must be enough Monarch Level strong ones, more battle powers from Commanders, and various other advantages to ensure their victory.

The prerequisite for all this is that the King must successfully ascend and become a true ruler, the God of Humans.

Otherwise, relying solely on a pile of Monarch Level beings, Rod could hardly imagine defeating the Blood God.

At this moment, Rod suddenly realized a problem: the King’s heart had been taken out again. Would the loss of life influence the success of the True King Ascension ceremony?

With this question in mind, Rod returned to the Royal City at full speed.

But the King was not at the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

The Fire Priest told him that the King and Bossivale had gone to the Plant Palace, seemingly for something related to the True King Ceremony.

Rod immediately headed to the Plant Palace. It was located at the rear of the Upper City, the most vibrant area of Trolian. At the deepest part of the palace was the Holy White Tree, a miracle of life.

The True King Ceremony was underway on the green meadow beneath the Holy White Tree.

On the way, Rod proceeded unhindered; all the forbidden grounds in the Royal City were open to him, and the guards began saluting him from afar upon seeing him.

Soon, he saw the King.

A giant black-red ritual pattern was imprinted on the lush green grass, with him and Bossivale standing at the edge of that extremely complex pattern.

"Rod, you’ve come."

The King had noticed him early on, and at the moment he saw him, his lips involuntarily curled upwards.

"How’s the Great Dragon City? Old Kex is the most experienced Fire Priest, there should be no problems."

Rod nodded: "Very smoothly. The fire has been ignited, and all the monsters have been cleared. The source of pollution was the head of the Giant Ancestor. After it was killed, all pollution began to dissipate."

Bossivale was surprised: "The Giant Ancestor? Ehaius, the first King of Giants? Wasn’t he a God of the Ancient Epoch? His head is beneath the Great Dragon City?"

"Yes, along with the corpses of nine Giant Kings. They had no souls and were completely under the control of the Giant Ancestor’s head."

Bossivale’s eyes widened: "What... Exactly what happened in the Giant Royal Court battle? Why did this happen? No, no, the head of the Giant Ancestor fused with all the Giant Kings’ souls. It’s a monster infinitely close to True King Level. You killed it alone?"

Rod nodded gently: "Yes, I used wisdom and skill to destroy it. However, this head wasn’t that powerful; it was merely a Strong King Level monster."

"Impossible!"

Bossivale resolutely said.

"All twelve Giant Kings were Strong King Level, and the Giant Ancestor, being an Ancient God, devoured the residual souls of the nine Giant Kings. How could it be merely a Strong King Level? It should be at least a Great King Soul!"

Rod asked in surprise: "A Great King Soul?"

"That’s right."

Bossivale said cautiously.

"Judging a monster’s power by the strength of the soul is the most accurate method. A Great King Soul is the soul of the strongest King Level monster, just one step away from Divinity. To my knowledge, the head of this giant is definitely a great king."

Rod furrowed his brow. The display of the Dream Realm surely could not be wrong. The soul obtained from killing the Giant Ancestor’s head was a ’Powerful King Soul.’

But Bossivale’s reasoning also made sense.

Rod pondered for a moment, then asked: "But, wasn’t the King of the Deep Sea also not a Strong King?"

Bossivale replied: "That might be because it lost something, causing its soul to degrade. For giants, the power of destiny is most important. They pursue destiny power all their lives. The strongest giants possess the most powerful destiny power."

Bossivale’s words struck Rod like a bolt of lightning, shattering the mist in his heart.

He immediately recalled that the King of the Deep Sea had once frantically pursued his Destiny Divine Sword to an obsessive extent. Its strength far surpassed any King Level Rod had encountered before, just short of the Strong King Level.

Rod once could not understand, but now he knew.

This was the reason.

No wonder the soul of the Giant Ancestor contained Destiny Energy. It must have been taken from the Giant Kings.

The battle in the Giant Royal Court must have been related to the power of destiny.

But why were giants so eager for the power of destiny?

Bossivale answered his question: "Legend has it that the giants foresaw their fate of destruction. To change destiny, they needed to seize more destiny power; the essence of this power is actually the most special Destiny Source Law. What they sought were fragments of the Destiny Source Law."
