Chapter 1976 - 874: Hope_3
To understand, the seven rounds of High Rank Ascension Ceremony altogether consume 254 units of various High Rank elements and Divine Stones, which is absolutely not a small number, not to mention the source materials.
However, in the current situation, even if more resources are consumed, they can only give rise to more Primordial strong individuals, but they are still relentless.
"Asa, is there any new information about the Life of Man?"
"Not yet... The Evil Thought Stele has been injected with very strong forbidden power, I can feel it, this ban is specifically targeting me. The process of eroding the Evil Thought Stele is way more difficult than the Evil Thought Space, perhaps the Dark Spirit engaged in specific actions before its destruction."
Rod slightly frowned: "But, you have seen the Evil Thought Stele before, isn’t the Life of Man engraved on its surface?"
Asa shook his head: "The engravings on the surface only indicate the existence of the Life of Man, apart from the topmost parts, the rest are meaningless. The true secrets lie within the Evil Thought Stele’s interior. The information I obtained back then was too superficial and blurred, only by completely mastering the Evil Thought Stele can we fully grasp all information regarding the Life of Man and the secrets about the Supreme Will."
He paused for a moment, then continued.
"By that time, we will know that the Supreme Will is the utmost evil entity, as long as it is slain, all distortions, decay, and darkness will be restored."
Rod nodded, acknowledging Asa’s reasoning, he no longer disturbed him, allowing him to focus on eroding the Evil Thought Stele.
Moments later, Chucher finally opened his eyes, he looked at his hands excitedly, the powerful force shining with strange radiance flowed at his fingertips.
"Is this Divine Power? Is this Level 18 Spiritual Energy? It’s immensely powerful. To what extent will my Heavenly Power reach? I can hardly wait... I feel I still have a great advancement space, I can become even stronger, possess more Divine Power!"
Rod smiled as he relayed Asa’s advice to him, urging him to regularly consume Primordial Soil, to master and use this power as much as possible, only this way can he reach higher levels of strength.
Upon hearing Rod’s words, Chucher’s excitement was indescribable, he couldn’t wait to return to the battlefield and slaughter monsters in the darkness.
The Great Shepherd Leader immediately arranged a new position for him, without even letting him speak, Chucher directly dashed out of the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, rushing towards the warfront.
Afterward, the next Life of Man entered the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.
Truthfully, Rod hadn’t seen Frank in a long time, this member of the Black Battle Group is now far stronger than before, yet his gap with Rod had widened even more.
Frank shouted excitedly: "Lord Rod, I... I finally see you again, we all – Kashan, Mephit, Anna, Molly, Teresa – haven’t seen you for such a long time, we’ve missed you greatly, wuuuu..."
As he spoke, he surprisingly began to cry.
Rod felt a bit guilty, since meeting Hidden Sage Royeger, he hadn’t returned to the Black Battle Group for a long time, but it was unavoidable, he had too many things to handle, no time left to reunite with his former companions.
"I’m sorry," he softly said, "It’s my fault, but I missed you all as well."
Frank wiped away his tears: "No, no, Lord Rod, you haven’t done anything wrong, you have more important matters, you need to save mankind, save fire and light... It’s us who are too weak, unable to keep up with you..."
Rod laughed: "Don’t say that, you are Life of Man too, not necessarily weaker than me. Once you complete the awakening, you will be able to fight alongside me. Moreover, I also believe Kashan, Mephit, Anna, Teresa, they are all Life of Man."
Frank hadn’t finished wiping his tears, yet he smiled: "Really? Really? That’s amazing, I wonder what power I will have after awakening. My plants are already much stronger than before, as long as the soil is adequately prepared beforehand, I can easily summon a plant army."
The Great Shepherd Leader softly whispered in Rod’s ear: "Frank, at his First Level, is the strongest force, one person is more formidable than one Battle Group."
Rod couldn’t help but smile: "Indeed, he is our Mushroom King."
"Mushroom?" Frank asked in surprise: "Among my plants, mushrooms are fewer, their battle power isn’t sufficient, they often tend to fall asleep..."
Rod merely said, "Once you’ve completed the Soul Ceremony, reshaped the ancient soul of the past, you will know."
Frank nodded with anticipation and, under Rod’s guidance, stood at the center of the Soul Ceremony.
Like Chucher, with the efforts of Rod and the Great Shepherd Leader, Frank also completed the advancement, but the process was a bit more tortuous. During the ceremony, the excessive pain made him pass out three times, forcing Rod to use some consciousness-preserving potions to support him through the Soul Ceremony, and complete the Ascension Ceremony and the Primordial Advancement Ceremony.
When Frank stepped into the Primordial realm, the powerful life aura blossomed in his body, countless flowers and grasses sprouted under his feet, fragrance drifted from his armpits.
Rod said: "Frank, you must get close to nature, love all plants, nurture more plants, create greater greenery, and regularly consume Primordial Water to master and wield this power as much as possible."
