The Last King Of Darkness

Rod paid no heed to its words; this fellow was always so inflated. If one took what it said seriously, fate would have changed long ago.

He turned his gaze, looking toward that chaotic Soul. This was the first time Rod had obtained a Soul that possessed a complete Source Law.

"Only the Primordial God’s Soul can maintain a complete Source Law form, rather than fragmented Source Laws." The Book of Knowledge cried out urgently: "All the Source Laws within this Soul are in complete form. It even holds one fully intact lamp of Primordial Law."

"Book, I can obtain it, can’t I?"

The Book of Knowledge shouted in excitement: "Exactly. The Miracle of the Dream Realm is the Dream Realm’s transformation and assimilation of Source. Within the shattered Sea of Source, the Domains of the Source Laws are not fully fixed. As long as we pay a sufficient price, we can let this lamp of Primordial Law reappear inside the Dark Devourer, converting it into our own power."

Rod nodded lightly. This also meant that he had skipped the process of condensing a Primordial Law, directly gaining one lamp of Primordial Law. And after igniting the twenty‑fifth Star, his Soul could no longer obtain new statuses, and thus could no longer ignite new Stars. He had originally thought this was the limit of the Master of Dreams’ power, but now it seemed the Master of Dreams was still far from his limit.

"When the Dark Devourer completely Devours the Primordial God’s Soul, it will break through to a new extreme. The Primordial God’s Soul will be thoroughly fused into this Star, becoming the bearer of Primordial Law. Then, by paying a sufficient price, we can completely convert this Primordial Law into the Dark Devourer’s Source Energy."

Rod clenched his fist. This was that single thread of Victory’s opportunity, a capability he possessed only after Devouring Luo’s Residual Spirit. As long as he could plunder the Primordial God’s Divine Country and Devour the Primordial God’s Soul, he would be able to step yet further, ultimately reaching a degree comparable to the Primordial Divine King.

Thus, this battle in the Ice Prison was the most crucial step. The significance of winning this battle was immense.

"Begin." The Book of Knowledge urged: "After losing its Divine Country, the complete Primordial Law within the Soul becomes unstable. Without the Divine Country’s Divine Origin Base, it will soon degrade."

"What is the price?" Rod asked softly. "Are the resources of the Dream Realm sufficient?"

The Book of Knowledge answered in a deep voice: "The efficiency of transformation and assimilation in the Dream Realm is generally threefold. That is to say, you must pay resources roughly three times what is needed to condense this lamp of Primordial Law in order for this lamp of Primordial Law to be rekindled within the Dark Devourer. Note, this is not the conversion of a Primordial Law, but a rebirth. In essence, it is no different from rekindling a Star."

Rod nodded and stepped into the Soul Altar, extracting at the fastest speed all other resources from this Soul, leaving only that one intact lamp of Primordial Law. Then he spread his five fingers. Boiling red light whirled in his palm, forming a vast crimson vortex that Devoured this Soul.

In the next instant, a pillar of scarlet light erupted from his body. His Soul was submerged in red in a single flash. At the center of the Constellation, that blazing red Star was madly expanding, soon swelling into a blood‑red sun.

At the same time, the Book of Knowledge cast all the complete Source Laws it had just stripped out entirely into this red sun. The scarlet flames began to seethe, and the aura of Blast surged within the Star.

"I’m going to explode!" Rod bent over in agony. Terrifying Energy surged in his Soul, as if it would burst forth from his body at any moment.

The Book of Knowledge immediately poured in a vast quantity of Soul Flowers, Spiritual Flowers, Divine Flowers, and the great mass of Source Laws and Source Materials plundered during this period. No one knew how long it took; after countless resources had been invested, this blood‑red sun finally stabilized. The Star returned to calm, the red light ebbed away like a receding tide, and the Constellation at last regained stability.

Rod stared at his hands in amazement. The second lamp of Primordial Law surfaced upon the Constellation’s Collection. Boundless Spiritual Energy poured into it like floodwaters that had at last found an outlet. The Divine Fire upon the Obelisk burned even more fiercely. Innumerable Divine Flowers fused into it, forming a new structure of Divinity. Mighty Divine Power was being ceaselessly converted forth.

In the space of a blink, the Strength of Rod’s Divine Power surged to 1,250 marks, while the even vaster Spiritual Energy rapidly fused with his Divine Power, forming the might of True King Level and in an instant reaching its extreme. That ocean‑like, majestic force burst from his Soul, its Strength equivalent to ten trillion units of Spiritual Energy.

Though he was still at the extent of nineteenth‑level Spiritual Energy, Rod’s confidence had already risen at this moment. He knew that single thread of opportunity was no longer a mere faint hope.

And Rod’s Advanced breakthrough also granted immense confidence to the Strong humans. Luo Weiya’s once‑shattered belief recongealed at this moment, and she shouted: "There is no almighty God, no supreme greatness, but we have Rod—he is our Savior!"

But Rod only shook his head slightly: "No. Your existence is the cause that has brought me to this step today. Each one of us is our own Savior."

Solos’ eyes brimmed with tears as he said softly: "Lord Rod, I cannot describe your greatness. Please lead us forward."

Rod inclined his head slightly. The Dream Realm shifted its course, flying through the gray Mist toward the next Divine Country—the Light Country.

At the same time, Rod also bestowed his blessing upon Mephit, granting her power close to True King Level. Owing to her special nature, her Strength of might had already reached half of Rod’s. Among humans, she was now the Strongest aside from him.
