About one clock hour later, all the senior personnel who could return to Troli gathered at the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

Everyone was astonished at how quickly Saint Lond’s support arrived and at the powerful force exhibited by Rhein.

Even more shocking revelations were to follow.

Once the personnel were assembled, Rhein began to narrate humanity’s true legacy, the "Path of the King."

At that moment, the entire Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground was silent, except for the sound of the Holy Fire burning and Rhein’s deep and resonant voice echoing throughout.

It was only now that Troli understood what a true king was, akin to a divine being, a god of humanity.

They were far from reaching this realm.

In fact, throughout human history, no one had truly stepped into this realm. The closest to a True King was a Supreme Quasi-King with 25 shares of the Primordial Law. In various ancient texts, they were honored with the title of True King, but they were not real kings because they failed to take the final step—

To condense 25 shares of Primordial Law into one complete Primordial!

Without taking this step, they did not truly control the Primordial and could not resist the true initial Black Mist.

No matter how powerful a Quasi-King may be, they are merely Quasi-Kings, not true kings, for a king is a god, and in ancient legends, a true god is a spirit that controls the Primordial Law. All other gods are false gods.

"Gods are the oldest and most powerful beings in the universe, transcending all realms of imagination, and standing above all forces as great entities."

Rhein repeated what the Book of Knowledge had said, emphasizing that a true king is a great entity that transcends all forces, a mighty presence not easily mentioned; Troli’s previous knowledge was profoundly mistaken.

He also mentioned that in Yanuo and Saint Lond, there is a saying: Only a True King can ignite the Primordial Fire.

During the Fire Epoch, Quasi-Kings barely managed to ignite the Primordial Fire. Once the firewood of the Primordial Fire was exhausted, the Primordial Fire also extinguished, and the Black Mist returned, ultimately destroying the Fire Epoch, ending humanity’s era.

So far, this "hypothesis" is the most mainstream theory in Yanuo and Saint Lond, and no evidence has been found in the countless relics they obtained to overthrow it.

Therefore, this may also be the closest hypothesis to the truth.

Based on this reasoning, in many ancient legends, only achieving a True King can save humanity, which is correct.

Of course, taking this step is extremely difficult; how to condense a complete Primordial Law is an unresolvable problem.

It challenges the fundamental rules of the entire world, as the existence of the Sea of Origin is shattered by 107 shards of Primordial Law, and reconsolidating Primordial Law means plundering one 107th of the Sea of Source and merging it into one’s soul.

This is an enormous project, an infinite grand goal, and once this step is initiated, one faces the backlash of the entire Sea of Source; no human can survive such an impact, and any grand True King bearing ceremony will collapse instantly.

According to the ancient texts obtained by Yanuo and Saint Lond, during the Fire Epoch, several Supreme Quasi-Kings perished at this heavenly abyss-like final step.

However, they do not need to consider such distant matters now.

In the entire human world, only the King of Yarno qualifies as a Supreme Quasi-King. He possesses 20 shares of Primordial Law, just stepping into the supreme domain, currently in seclusion, preparing to merge the 21st share of Primordial Law, but the resistance encountered far exceeds the original expectations, and he has not left the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground for three years.

Meanwhile, the Fire Saint Emperor of Saint Lond only possesses 15 shares of Primordial Law, just entering the Fourth Stage of the Sacred Quasi-King realm, far from the Supreme Quasi-King level.

Rhein told them that on the King’s Path, only by mastering the Source Law can one be considered to have escaped the status of a mortal, officially embarking on the royal road; those who control Strong Source can be crowned as Lords, i.e., Lords in reserve, and having mastered the Root Origin, they become Half Kings.

Upon mastering the Primordial Law, one steps into eternity, becoming a strong being of Primordial; in the Ancient Epoch, it was known as the Eternal, possessing over a thousand years of lifespan and authority akin to a True God.

In the Fire Epoch, they were called the Holy One, or Quasi-King, meaning the closest humans to a True King.

Rhein told them that in Yanuo and Saint Lond, those with fewer than 5 shares of Primordial Law are called Weak Quasi-Kings, those with more than 5 shares are known as Strong Quasi-Kings, and those possessing more than 10 shares are Great Quasi-Kings.

And possessing more than 15 shares of Primordial Law, one can be called a Sacred Quasi-King; upon obtaining more than 20 shares, one steps into the ultimate supreme realm, the last stage on the King’s Path, infinitely close to the stage of the True King.

With each stage, the difficulty of merging new Primordial Law surges, especially at this supreme stage; the resistance encountered when merging new Source Law from the Sea of Source becomes frighteningly formidable, and the eroding Black Mist reaches a terrifying degree—standing at the peak of the Quasi-King is an exceedingly difficult task.

However, for Troli, this is the matter of the next stage.

In all of Troli, there is only a Half King, not a single Holy One of the Primordial; they do not need to consider touching the Primordial yet, only focusing on the matters of the Half King stage.
