The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1428 - 694: The Past and the Future

"Where did this come from?"

Bossivale approached the pile of stones with trembling hands, barely touching them before recoiling as if they were scalding hot.

"No, it’s not an illusion, not a phantom, these are real stones."

He carefully picked one up, bringing it to his eyes, rubbing, licking, and biting it.

"There’s no coating, spirituality is abundant, the scent of moonlight dances within the stone, exuding that same tranquil aroma without any deviation—it’s a Moon Stone, a superior Moon Stone." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Bossivale plunged into the heap of stones, licking and touching frantically, like a dog that hadn’t eaten in a hundred days discovering a pile of excrement.

"Hahaha, it’s all true, every piece, they’re all genuine, Moon Stone, Star Stone, without damage, without missing parts, full of spirituality, just like freshly heated!"

He leaped out of the stone pile with the grace of a beauty emerging from the bath, hopping in front of Rod.

"This is amazing, incredible, I can’t express my excitement in words, do you know? This is two hundred times the stock of Trolian, ten times of Saint Reel! In a natural spiritual stone vein, every two hundred tons of stone would yield a Moon Stone or Star Stone the size of a fingernail, this much pure ore means emptying out a hundred veins!"

Rod exclaimed, "So rare?"

Bossivale took Rod’s hands, eagerly staring into his eyes, "Of course, after the fall of the Fire Epoch, the method to create them was lost to us. All we can do now is excavate relics, or mine veins! These stones are square, varied in size but similar in specification, pure and free of impurities—clearly man-made. Which relic did you excavate them from?"

Rod nodded and detailed his recent relic excavation.

Bossivale’s eyes widened larger than copper bells, his face full of wrinkles blooming like chrysanthemums:

"How is this possible? How did you sense it? How could anyone achieve this? Are you truly an Angel Envoy sent by the Fire Will? Tell me quickly, does Fire Heaven truly exist? Are the Pope, Takxis, and Mod there?"

Rod coughed once, explaining, "It’s my Fire Spark ability... it lets me sense all spiritual substances within range."

Bossivale shook his head like a drum on a stick.

"No, impossible. Some relics are so deep, the earth absorbs any abnormal fluctuations best, and you’ve unearthed relics ten thousand yards below, not to mention some relics are affected by sealing, it’s simply not feasible."

Just as Rod was pondering how to justify it, he sighed softly.

"I finally understand why you’re seen as a beacon of hope in Trolian, because you create miracles that seem impossible, accomplishing tasks that common sense says cannot be done, like clearing Black Fog, defeating terrifying monsters—it’s these nearly impossible feats that have shown us the dawn of hope, that nothing is impossible."

Bossivale grinned, precisely cutting a small piece of Star Stone and Moon Stone with a scalpel-like Spiritual Energy, then pinching them together with invisible hands of spiritual power, as the storage box in the workshop opened on its own, various materials and elements flying in from all directions and merging within.

Immense heat began to release, Bossivale’s spiritual energy visibly reddening, as countless tiny tendrils extended, mixing the materials together.

Witnessing this, Rod couldn’t help but marvel, no wonder no one learned his alchemy skills, such mastery over spiritual energy was beyond the reach of First Level Combatants.

And the ability to heat with spiritual energy and concoct midair was uniquely his.

"Lord Rod."

Bossivale said.

"The solvent will soon be ready, it will increase Pure Star Source’s utilization rate and boost production speed, but unfortunately, although Trolian gathers stars, in alchemy it’s truly lacking, these apprentices are all, without exception, blockheaded fools; to craft such top-tier potions, they need at least another twenty years of learning... Of course, with our current Star Source, we won’t even need that time, at most we can produce a thousand Pure Star Source Potions."

Rod exclaimed, "Only a thousand?"

Bossivale said heavily, "Yes, Lord Rod, actually, that’s already considerably much, Pure Star Source is unimaginably hard to obtain, it’s the purest core power of the stars... Are you familiar with the Starry Sky?"

Rod mused, "The Starry Sky is the highest level Spirit Realm, an infinitely large, infinitely distant, boundless vast plane, it’s the highest position Space, extremely thin, with little Spirit Realm matter flowing within, nearly vacuum-like. Since it’s the highest level, there’s no positional pressure, resulting in the plane being full of countless spatial fractures, folds, and seams."

Bossivale praised, "Lord Rod, your knowledge is profound, unlike those brainless warriors, constantly fighting, not understanding the importance of knowledge and truth... Let me ask you, do you understand the essence of the sun, moon, and stars?"

Rod replied, "The sun, moon, and stars run in extremely high Spirit Realm’s extreme orbit, hidden behind these fractures and seams, their essence is infinite massive collections of Spirits. What we see as the sun, moon, and stars is actually their projection in the Spirit Realm, the sun, moon, and stars have immense influence on the universe’s movement, though this influence is indirect and slow."
