The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 850 - 464 Opportunity

The ground trembles, countless dust rises.

Rod holds Mephit as they hide in the pit, above them, it feels like a dust storm sweeps through, the sound fades, yet the spiritual energy storm continues to howl.

Mephit silently moves his hand from around her waist, Rod doesn’t notice.

Seconds later, the second roar of spiritual energy arrives as expected.

"The kingdom is eternal!"

A gale rises, sand flies and stones move, as though the entire Starry Sky City is resonating with a hum.

This kind of power can only belong to a king-level existence, Horus and others chose to bypass the Main Star Priest, which is undoubtedly correct.

It is unknown how long it takes for the restlessness to gradually calm down.

Rod jumps out of the pit, looks around, and says, "Continue the battle, there are still many areas to clear."

Mephit looks at him, calmly asking, "Don’t you need rest?"

Rod smiles and says, "Mephit, you know my endurance, right?"

With no expression, Mephit looks at him, saying, "I haven’t tested it, how would I know."

Rod smiles and says, "Then today is the perfect day to try." Raising his right hand, he licks upwards with his tongue, blood immediately gushes from his palm, he gathers spiritual energy on the tip of his tongue, effortlessly slicing open his undefended palm.

With a wave of his right hand, blood scatters across his body, a great fire bursts from the blood, Rod’s spiritual power strength suddenly surges, at least doubling.

With a glare, perhaps due to great luck, a demon turns to ash on the spot.

Rod, feeling pleased, turns and asks, "Mephit, am I handsome?"

"Handsome."

"Who is the most handsome person in the world?"

"It’s you."

Rod laughs heartily, with a joyful mood, his soul becomes more lively, and the operation of spiritual energy flows more smoothly and naturally, spiritual power strength reaches a new high.

He strides forward, starlight flickering at his fingertip, a great star shuttle over one hundred thousand revolutions instantaneously takes form, with a sharp whoosh, the star shuttle flashes forth, directly hitting a demon blocking the way.

The high-speed rotating tip of the shuttle explodes its head, the star shuttle’s momentum doesn’t weaken, it pierces through several other demons, then explodes, dazzling and deadly starlight engulfs the area within a hundred yards, destroying this demon lair.

The Book of Knowledge shouts excitedly in his mind, "1 point divinity, well done, master, you already resemble the Master of Dreams somewhat, Starry Sky City is full of divinity, keep going, don’t stop!"

Rod smiles and says, "I know, no need to urge."

"Mephit, report this area’s information to Soron! Guardian, the most handsome person, Rod, has cleared it!"

"Okay."

Feeling triumphant, Rod leaps forward, he spots another wandering Starry Knight.

The battle continues through to the morning of the next day, as if Rod would never tire, continuously plugging and digging vigorously, attacking from both front and back, killing many Starry Knights, clearing a large area.

Only after the duration of the Phantom ends does Rod stop.

[Wind’s Phantom] has undergone unprecedented enhancement after quantification, yet it can’t be summoned at will, it requires accumulating resonance degree, reaching over 80% resonance degree to summon, the higher the resonance, the stronger the phantom.

After the phantom disappears, Rod can only return to rest, solo combat efficiency is too low, plus he has fought continuously for over ten hours, spiritual energy mostly consumed, with some mental fatigue.

Returning to rest at this time not only allows recovery of spiritual energy but also improves resonance, it’s the most efficient choice.

"Let’s go, Mephit, we’re heading back."

After a day’s battle, Mephit seems unchanged, not tired, although most of the time she is spectating, she still assists Rod with the "Cold Ice" characteristic when he encounters knights of two stars or more, the "Child of the Stars".

"Okay."

Mephit responds lightly, her expression still indifferent, her silver-white eyes only hold chill, although she continues to cooperate with Rod as taught, her inner self seems unchanged.

Rod curiously glances at her, realizing he has never seen her in a state of spiritual energy exhaustion, Mephit’s performance has always been inconsistent with her combat level.

Thinking about it, she is a Forbidden Person with three spiritual energy characteristics, it’s normal for her to be stronger.

But still far from me.

According to the Book of Knowledge’s theory, I have eleven characteristics, moreover, I have now become a Guardian, going further, I will be Trolian’s pillar of support.

That day shouldn’t be too far, after killing the Starry Queen and defeating the invading Soul Devouring King, I may very well touch that domain.

Commander.

Also known as King, is Monarch level strength.

One step further, is the legendary true King who can face darkness, bringing light.

Now it seems, that day is not far from me.

When that day comes, humanity will revive again, my dreams will be fulfilled.

Rod smiles, casting these distractions aside, he leads Mephit back to the Residual Fire camp.

And so, the battle for Starry Sky City officially begins.

Rod fights on average ten hours daily, as the complete duration of a Phantom is ten hours, the rest of the time is used to recover spiritual energy, resonate anew with [Wind’s Phantom].

In terms of combat duration, he isn’t the longest, among the many human geniuses, there are those with exceptionally deep spiritual energy, extremely fast recovery, and nearly limitless energy.
