The Last King Of Darkness

Rod lifted his head; the [King of Night] came into play, his gaze piercing the darkness to see the true high-level Spirit Realm. It’s an immensely vast and hollow area formed by countless spiritual orbits, countless spatial fault lines, folds, and crevices, its size far surpassing the limits of human imagination.

Perhaps this is the primordial Supreme Universe.

And on this spiritual orbit, Rod saw the sun, moon, and stars for the first time with his own eyes; not the projection of the Main Material World, not the spiritual feedback on star charts, but the real sun, bright moon, and stars. Although just tiny dots, they were within his sight.

"Master!" the Book of Knowledge screamed frantically, "In this area, there are bubbles and debris everywhere; this has been through an unimaginable storm, maybe it’s a natural phenomenon of the high-level Spirit Realm, or perhaps a battle."

Rod’s heart stirred, and he sped up. The pressure of the position increased geometrically, slowing his speed, while the [Spirit Realm Ship] burst out with even stronger propulsion, the intense disturbances from this struggle spreading billions of yards away.

Suddenly, the entire region’s darkness began to riot, countless black shadows erupted in patches.

"Monsters!" the Book of Knowledge shouted, "We’ve triggered the Black Fog; this is the source of the Black Fog, a direct attack from the source feedback!"

With his dark vision, Rod could clearly see in this sky-covering yin cloud that countless monsters were lurking, resembling spiky spheres with boiling darkness shimmering on their surfaces, powerful corruption echoing within them, a kind of monster never seen before.

Asa suddenly shouted excitedly, "Master, I see it, I see it, the residual spirits in the starry sky were all wiped out by these kinds of monsters. They seem to be monsters created by extremely evil people."

Rod spread open his hands, and in the next second, millions of yards of red light penetrated the yin cloud, falling onto him. An incomparably huge red glow instantly expanded, a massive red giant standing in the red light, appearing in the starry sky.

This was the True King Level [Giant God Power], forming the Red War God, emanating terrifying True God pressure. Its red long sword, over three million yards long, slashed down, tearing space apart, shattering planes, turning billions of monsters to ashes.

The Book of Knowledge suddenly shouted, "These are the progeny of the Black Fog Primordial Body, extremely insidious monsters specifically designed to destroy Spiritual Bodies, dealing terrifying damage to all Residual Spirits. Asa was right; they destroyed the Heroic Spirits of humanity."

A booming voice echoed in the starry sky, "I know."

The red giant slowly clenched its fists, stronger red light bursting forth, forming a massive red long cloud, like a cloth wiping those dirty black spots from the starry sky, all the primordial body progeny being eliminated in an instant, countless Dark Souls being seized, gathered on the Soul Altar, and then devoured by the [Dark Devourer].

His Absolute Spiritual Power further increased, rapidly boosting his might beyond imagination, in an instant, Rod’s might strength leapt from two trillion to three trillion, eventually settling around four trillion. Afterward, no matter how his Absolute Spiritual Power grew, his might would no longer increase; he had reached the divine power fusion limit of 625 marks.

Only at this moment did Rod realize that there was a limit to divine power fusion, and if he wanted to advance further, he needed more divine power.

Meanwhile, Rod also discovered that the star’s carrying capacity was limited, able to carry no more than two trillion kilo marks of spiritual energy. But this didn’t mean his combat power couldn’t grow; on the contrary, it gave him more room—because he could simultaneously initiate two stars at their maximum power.

Soon, the progeny of the Black Fog Primordial Body were swept away, and Asa sneered, "Foolish Supreme Will, sending these trash to attack the master. The master is not a Residual Spirit; he is a True King with a Complete Soul!"

Rod dispelled the [Giant God Power], realizing he couldn’t linger here. A greater crisis loomed in his inspiration; he had to quickly approach the edge of the starry sky to break the Black Ring Seal.

He activated the [Spirit Realm Ship] again, flying upward, with infinite immense pressure trying to stop him. This wasn’t just the pressure of the position but more of the Black Fog’s pressure, yet it couldn’t sway Rod’s determination. He simultaneously activated [Bright Red Tears], with trillion-level might supporting him, the red light on his body flashing out like a red sun appearing in the starry sky.

The Black Fog erupted in even more strange turbulence, the universe-submerging yin cloud boiling, as the phantom left in the Royal City told him the Black Fog’s tide had arrived early. Trolian had entered a combat state; unprecedented Black Fog Symbionts and nearly identical Ancient God Derivatives were attacking the Royal City. The surging Black Fog from all directions poured into Trolian, the Star Marrow Altar’s shield was at its limit, and the intensity of the Black Fog was still rising, soon reaching the initial Black Fog levels.

Rod knew his time was short, he unleashed even more powerful strength, flying toward the other side of the starry sky.

The [Spirit Realm Ship] crossed countless spatial fault lines, folds, and crevices; no matter how strong the pressure, it couldn’t stop this supreme authority. Finally, Rod touched the spiritual orbit; the sun, moon, and stars were right in front of him.

"The sun!" the Book of Knowledge screamed, "That’s the sun!"

At the moment he entered the spiritual orbit, Rod saw an infinitely giant ball of light before him—that was the sun. The overwhelming spiritual waves surged toward him, making even his soul tremble.

"Not good!" the doll suddenly said, "Master, shut down the Spiritual Vision, activate [King of Night]."

Rod’s heart trembled, realizing something was wrong. He immediately ceased the Eye of the Soul and activated [King of Night], and in that instant, he was shocked by the scene before him, seeing the infinitely gigantic ball of light completely corroded by the Black Fog. The boiling darkness on the sun’s surface drew out long flame bridges, the golden flames turned pure black, and endless pollution aura reverberated throughout the spiritual orbit.

"The sun, polluted?"

Rod said incredulously; though he knew the phenomenon of the Black Sun was frequently occurring, he had always thought they were temporary celestial events, and the sunspots would quickly dissipate with its strong purification power.

Asa murmured, "How could this be? The sun is a conglomerate of infinite spirits; it can’t be completely polluted, impossible!"

"Look!" Asa suddenly shouted.

Rod turned his gaze, seeing the moon in another direction of the spiritual orbit, an entity of equal ranking as the sun, once incomparably clear and white, now also turned pure black.

"And!"

Rod lifted his gaze, seeing in the distance on other spiritual orbits the stars. According to legend, they were also massive spiritual clusters, whose cores were dust drifting in endless fire seas, but at the moment, they too had all turned black, without exception.

"The sun, moon, and stars, all polluted?"

He couldn’t believe this fact. In legends, the sun, moon, and stars were manifestations of the Spirit Realm, conglomerates of infinite spirits; how could they be entirely polluted?

The Book of Knowledge suddenly said, "The sun, moon, and stars exist in the high-level Spirit Realm as sources of purification, having strong purifying effects on the Black Fog. Due to their existence, the Black Fog cannot completely wipe out those human Heroic Spirits. But when they are completely eroded, the source feedback of the Black Fog creates a special monster like the progeny of the Black Fog Primordial Body, completely exterminating all Heroic Spirits."

"The world is moving toward its ultimate Doomsday, a desperate cataclysm arriving because these purification sources have come to an end. Without their check and obstruction, perhaps because of this, the surviving spirit of the Primordial God affects the power of all living beings, trying to counterattack at this last moment."

Rod clenched his fist, powerful divine power flowing in his soul. He knew the situation was far more severe than he had imagined; he had only the final chance left.

If he couldn’t break the Black Ring Seal and cut off the connection of the extremely evil person, the world would inevitably sink into eternal darkness.

He unleashed greater strength to fly upward, and when he broke through the spiritual orbit, he finally saw the scene he once witnessed.

A bottomless black vortex, with a distorted human figure, unfathomable terrifying darkness spreading from it.
