The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1391 - 683: Evolution_3

Although he said so, upon recalling the process, it was indeed not easy, far more difficult than the awakening of the previous three Stars which happened automatically.

If not for Rod’s sudden flash of inspiration at the last moment, playing a passionate melody, he might have failed.

With so many high-quality attributes, Rod considered himself just an ordinary person.

Perhaps this was also the influence of the "Destiny Energy," otherwise Rod found it hard to believe he possessed such quick wit.

But Rod’s expression quickly turned somber, as this was the fourth Star he had awakened, and the difficulty had increased dramatically. Would future awakenings be even more difficult?

The Book of Knowledge also expressed such concern: "Master, maybe we should temporarily stop awakening the Stars? We can’t afford to lose 100 points of Divinity, let’s wait until we ignite the Giant Star, then resume the awakenings."

Rod hesitated for a moment and did not immediately respond, although there was some truth to the Book of Knowledge’s words, he had other concerns.

If he didn’t even dare to awaken the Star Soul, how could he ignite the Giant Star?

This problem couldn’t be decided in an instant, so Rod decided to complete his task first, as there was still one day left to awaken the next Star’s Star Soul.

——

After leaving the Dream Realm, Rod found that four clock hours had passed.

He had unknowingly spent this long in the Star Tower.

It seemed that the 12 clock hours to awaken the Star Soul might not be enough.

Indeed, the Book of Knowledge was right, awakening the Star Soul was a very difficult task.

The previous ease was just a coincidence he happened to excel in those specific points.

Rod sighed slightly, throwing away his complex thoughts, the time of the Teleportation Gate had passed, and he needed to quickly resolve the crisis in this area.

Flying all the way over, the barren surface was filled with rampant crawling monsters.

Until its end did Rod see a gigantic fortress, from its grotesque and rough appearance, it was clearly not a human creation, but a structure built by monsters through instinct.

Surrounding the fortress were blood-red crawling monsters, as large as Giant Dragons, all of which were the containers of the King of the Border, Red, the powerful Quasi-King Level monsters.

And at the top of the fortress, a withered human sat, its face long decayed, body thin and frail, but an overwhelming and terrifying aura emanated from it.

This was the Leader of this area, the King of the Border, Red.

When Rod’s gaze fell upon it, its gaze also turned to Rod.

"Hmph!"

Rod shouted without any fear.

"King of the Border, Red, your Doomsday has come. I, the Invincible War God Rod, will personally end your life."

"Feel my power!"

With both hands spread wide, the Teleportation Gate opened, and golden flames burst forth.

The King of the Border, Red, and its allies were instantly engulfed by the flames, bewildered.

seconds later, the battle ended.

On the scorched ground, only numerous piles of ashes remained.

"Little Rod, you’re a bit late today."

The King smiled through the Teleportation Gate.

"But your Spiritual Energy has improved a lot, Little Rod, you’ve gotten stronger again."

Rod chuckled, "You’ve sensed that, didn’t you? I’m late because I’ve become stronger, King, isn’t my growth fast? Do you have a sense of crisis that I might catch up with you?"

The King laughed, "Little Rod, I’m sorry, although now I can understand the changes in your Spiritual Energy, in my perception, your Spiritual Light is still like a floating firefly, and I’m still the sun burning on the day of the Bright Festival."

As soon as he finished speaking, the time of the Teleportation Gate was up.

Damn.

Showed off and ran.

Rod pursed his lips, slightly depressed.

Although he knew the gap between him and the King was vast, he didn’t expect it to be this significant.

And after he became a True King, this gap would continue to expand.

He didn’t know when he would be able to catch up. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Rod remembered Bossivale also said, the King was also an incomprehensible "Child of Platinum," with the blessing of Holy Fire, such power was imaginable.

It seemed, he needed to awaken all the Stars to compete with the King.

Hmm, but surely I’ll endure longer.

——

Like the Dead Wood Forest, after eliminating the source of Pollution in this area, the pollution in the Shaking Land rapidly decreased, and the power of the terrifying crawlers weakened swiftly.

Completely clearing this area was only a matter of time.

As before, Rod didn’t leave but fought alongside the warriors, joining the cleanup battle.

Apart from accumulating Humanity and the Flower of Humanity, the main goal was to excavate relics.

The Shaking Land was particularly abundant with relics, so much so that Rod believed it used to be a city, destroyed for unknown reasons, with fragments buried underground.

Rod continued killing monsters and excavating relics, enjoying the joy of countless resources pouring in, feeling immensely satisfied.

The only problem was that the relics occasionally exploded, causing him some distress.

Just then, the Book of Knowledge suddenly spoke.

"Master, Aphro and Weiguang have awakened!"

Rod felt a surge of joy in his heart and immediately returned to the Dream Realm.

Since the battle of Saint Reel, they had been unconscious for a long time, and only now had they finally awakened.

Upon entering the Dream Realm, the doll had already stood up, its wounds mostly healed, seemingly fine except for the left hand still equipped with the Shield of Darkness.
