The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1664 - 780: Starry Sky Devourer (Second Update)
"I was thrown out? Despicable, shameless guy, dare to plot against me while I’m not paying attention! I will reclaim my glory!"
Meanwhile, on the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, Kai’s ascension had been completed.
The aura of the Root Origin washed over him, although only a portion, it was, after all, the Root Origin. The Primordial Spirit Power was converting within his soul, a mysterious glowing sphere was born within, and his soul body began to boil, burning like flames.
Divine Country, Divine Fire, Root Origin, Primordial Spirit Power, everything a True King possesses, he now had.
Moreover, his soul continued to strengthen, the power of the Ancient Sun God’s Soul Ripple seemed not to have been exhausted.
This unexpected transformation shocked everyone.
No one dared to believe that an Ascension Ceremony would propel Kai into the True King Domain, becoming the fourth True King of Trolian just like that.
Luo Weiya asked in confusion, "Do we have four True Kings now? Have we surpassed the legendary limit of three True Kings? Surpassed the peak of the Human Kingdoms during the Fire Epoch?"
No one could answer his question.
Luo Weiya was not necessarily doubtful of their ability to achieve this, just unbelieving it happened so quickly, so easily.
Kai opened his eyes, at that moment, 6 million kilocords of Spiritual Energy swept in, blinding many from even opening their eyes.
And in the next second, Rod keenly noticed his spiritual power strength had turned into 6.1 million kilocords.
At this rate of growth, it wouldn’t be long before he breaks through 10 million kilocords?
Was the Ancient Sun God’s Soul Ripple that powerful?
Could it be this was the legendary Ancient God? Just a remnant of a Soul Ripple could wield such powerful might.
No one dared to believe what they saw, Horus asked stiffly, "How is this possible?"
Kai looked at his hands, the expression on his face a mix of surprise and shock, but not much, just lightly.
"I don’t know either, is this the power of the Ascension Ceremony?"
Bossivale seemed to fall into a perplexed state: "How can this be? Without conducting the True King Ceremony, how can one become a True King? The Source Ascension can’t be completed, nor could it be carried..."
It was Luo Weiya who first came to his senses, shouting, "Because he is the Life of Man, he has his own path, didn’t Rod also become a True King like this? He also didn’t undergo the True King Ceremony or carry the burden, because the Life of Man had already carried it for them!"
Bossivale suddenly realized: "Right, the Sun Knight is the Life of Man."
Rod coughed: "To be precise, he is the Life of Man with the Soul Ripple of the Ancient Sun God, the Ancient Sun God inherently possesses the complete Sun Root Origin, Kai is merely reclaiming what is his, naturally not needing the True King Ceremony, similarly, the carrier of his Root Origin is also the Soul Ripple of the Ancient Sun God."
"Exactly, exactly!" Bossivale exclaimed, "That’s it! Everything matches up, this is great, we have another True King."
The voice of the King came from the Holy Fire with relief.
"Kai, congratulations, you have finally returned to my side, I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
"Little Rod, you’ve done well, Trolian has another top-tier powerhouse."
Kai smiled and said, "Me too, finally able to fight alongside you all, looks like I still have some use before becoming firewood."
"That might be more than just a little use."
The King said with a laugh.
"Ah, the pollution in the starry sky has intensified again, I must return."
"Horus, Little Rod, Kai, although you are now True Kings, you must still be careful, during this time, the changes in the Black Fog are unlike anything we’ve seen before, remember not to take risks lightly, even the much stronger Fire Epoch was wiped out, we face many unknowns still."
After saying this, the King’s voice vanished in the Holy Fire.
Horus also said, "Regardless, resources are everything to us, the more resources we have, the more strong we can foster, let’s hurry back to the frontline battlefield, and reclaim Saint Reel quickly."
Thus, Kai returned to the frontline with them.
The Sun Knight who stepped into the True King Domain wielded power beyond imagination, although his spiritual power strength was still not as great as Horus’s for now, the grandeur of the Power of the Sun surpassed common logic.
When he fought, all the warriors in Saint Reel could see the sun in the sky.
His radiance illuminated a kingdom, all evil and pollution evaporated under the intense light.
Soon, with the efforts of the three True Kings, numerous human powerhouses, Rod’s phantom, and the Ghost King army, the remaining monsters were eliminated, Trolian completely took over the entirety of Saint Reel.
This civilization, mired in darkness, restored its light once again in less than a year’s time.
Meanwhile, before Rod, the shining divinity also came.
Including the previous ones, they totaled:
Creating new spaces, igniting new Fire Sparks, bringing hope to humanity, Divinity +1800 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Eliminating pollution, slaying monsters, removing threats to humanity, Divinity +450
Providing resources, raising the overall strength of the Orderer, Divinity +2500
——
Grand total of 4750 Divinity!
Minus the 1200 Divinity previously used to awaken two Great Stars, he net gained 3550 Divinity, adding some scraps and his remaining 309 Divinity.
His total divinity skyrocketed to 4018.
Such a vast amount of divinity boosted Rod’s confidence immensely, but the Book of Knowledge remained cautious, it first opened the Dream Realm to the "Shadow Veil", an area filled with heavy shadows that absorb most disturbances, preventing overly powerful battles from disturbing the Spirit Realm.
Then, the Book of Knowledge hastily began various preparations, inspecting minor damages in the Dream Realm, adjusting the strength of Dream Protection, urging Rod to prepare all means, and brought back the puppet, Asa, and the Ghost King army to the Dream Realm.
Aiming for perfection in every detail.
Rod couldn’t help but feel somewhat tense, constantly checking his stars, reviewing all his trump cards, adjusting his state, and recovering his Spiritual Energy.
He also used this excuse to sit in the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, though the Holy Fire couldn’t shine through his soul to the Dream Realm, it did provide some help.
Finally, one clock hour later, the sun set.
In the next moment, the entire Dream Realm darkened, the red on the Obelisk boiled, and crimson text flashed rapidly on the foreboding side.
"Invasion!"
"Invasion!"
"Invasion!"
"Star Devourer Amidala is invading!"
Boom!
Rod had no time to react when the Dream Realm experienced a violent tremor, a giant claw reached into the Dream Realm.
The claw shimmered with dazzling multicolored lights, the starry sky’s ancient and profound aura swept over, accompanied by a sense of extreme antiquity, filled with rot and death.
Identical to the Black Fog Symbiont’s aura.
This was the true aura of Star Devourer Amidala that Rod never sensed in the Illusion Realm of [Justice Execution].
Boom boom boom!
Violent tremors resounded throughout the Dream Realm, cracks instantly appeared on the Obelisk.
The Book of Knowledge cried out, "Master, Guardian of Darkness!"
But before it could shout, Rod had already shattered it.
A layer of faint light emerged on the Obelisk, its protection.
The tremor continued, but the Obelisk did not crack further.
Seeing that its attack was ineffective, the claw extended further, and Amidala entered the Dream Realm entirely.
Compared to its appearance in [Justice Execution], the lights on the Star Devourer before him were even stronger, completely enveloping and covering its figure, obscured its shape.
Bang!
An odd thud echoed through the Void, Rod’s heart skipped a beat, his eardrums vibrated, and his soul trembled.
Bang bang bang!
Another three peculiar sounds, Black Fog gathered in the Dream Realm, forming into three human shapes.
Rod recognized at a glance, two of them were the True Kings with six portions of Root Origin that he killed.
Crack!
The Dream Realm’s protection fully activated, releasing an outburst of powerful Spiritual Energy.
The battle commenced in an instant.
