The Last King Of Darkness

"And in the outermost battlefield, weaker Black Fog Primordial Bodies have already appeared. The Investigation Legion discovered more Black Fog Primordial Bodies in the distance. The White Tower’s great eye saw that the entire world’s black fog was surging towards us, and beneath the canopy, there is a giant dark shadow taller than the Dead Ash Mountain Range approaching us... A great catastrophe is coming, and we must continue to expand. I feel very uneasy."

Rod felt a strong sense of unease in his heart as well, but he couldn’t question the Great Shepherd Leader’s choice. With Trolian’s current territory, it could not sustain 3 billion people living there, let alone nearly 10 million Fire Holders. Without sufficient resources and food, their souls would gradually shrink and eventually wither away and die.

Could it be that we have to abandon some people?

This thought was immediately thrown out of his mind the moment it appeared. In such a Dark World, every person is a seed of fire, innumerable such seeds gathering together can ignite the flame that sustains the existence of the True King.

Rod clenched his fist, but his expression remained calm. Relaxedly, he said, "Qingyu, don’t worry. Believe me, I will soon become stronger, master more Primordial Laws, possess more Divine Power, until I become a true King. I will protect Trolian and each person in it, even in such a dark era, I will ultimately reignite the flames and the glory of humanity."

No matter what time it is, as long as Rod says "Don’t worry," Qingyu will feel assured, and he smiled and said, "I know, young Rod, we will achieve the ultimate victory."

"Yes."

"Humanity will eventually conquer the earth and once again move towards prosperity."

"Exactly."

"And us as well."

"Hmm..."

——

After leaving the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, Rod immediately returned to the Dream Realm and invested a Twisted Mixed Soul, 1000 Strong Sources, and 4000 Soul Firewood into the Chaos Crystal Wall’s relic ashes.

A great fire flared up, and the Star Tower faintly glowed.

The Book of Knowledge excitedly exclaimed, "Master, this awakening is very simple, it’s the simplest one on the list!"

Rod without hesitation invested 5000 Divinity into the Tower, and the final awakening began.

Darkness shrouded Rod’s vision, and a line of shining text appeared before his eyes.

"Have you ever been illuminated by the sun?"

"Yes, you’ve been illuminated."

"Have you illuminated the sun?"

"Yes, I saw it, your light was reflected in the sun’s eye."

A long sigh, an infinitely distant voice.

"Return to us, my master."

Strange light obscured his vision, and Rod was already outside the Star Tower.

The Chaos Crystal Wall emitted endless distant light, making the Dream Realm seem like a fantasy.

——

Powerful Spiritual Energy rose within Rod’s soul, the golden light of Divine Fire flashed in his eyes, he couldn’t wait to reach the Obelisk ahead and invest 25 Divine Flowers into the Divine Fire.

Thus, the fourth Primordial Law began to shine in his soul, 100 strokes of Divine Power circulated within his soul.

Rod didn’t have time to enjoy the pleasure brought by this powerful force, he quickly reached the Tower of Ashes, activating this miraculous structure capable of finding Star Relics.

Dust gathered once more before his eyes, forming a very strange scene, filled with changing light, nothing was clear.

"Time!"

The Book of Knowledge shouted.

"It’s the Time River, the Star Relics, hidden within the Time River, not just one!"

Rod’s heart trembled, Time River? He immediately thought of Time Wander.

If I exile myself, wouldn’t I be able to enter the Time River?

Asa flipped the pages, golden light flashed through the book seams: "There’s no danger, Master, this prophecy’s strength is too low. I need stronger prophecy, or I can’t hone my soul and enhance my prophetic power."

The Book of Knowledge excitedly shouted, "Master, quickly retrieve the power that once belonged to us, the Dream Realm is about to rise!"

Rod hesitated for not a second and directly invested 10,000 Divinity into Time Wander.

Time Exile

In the next instant, his vision abruptly changed, he entered a space of ever-changing light, where countless shining and illusory lights appeared and disappeared within the space without any pattern. He looked around, everything here seemed infinitely elongated, strangeness and chaos were the theme song here.

However, faintly, he seemed to feel an unimaginably huge and majestic river, one end connected to an unseen past, the other extending into an infinite future, and the middle comprised unlimited undulating curves, countless scenes floating in this river, but changing so fast he couldn’t make them out.

Rod knew, this must be the Time River. As the thought crossed his mind, his figure flowed with this river, he actually was wandering in time.

But this thought merely flickered past because Rod already saw the Star Relics, it was a touch of gray within infinite splendor, an odd force hid them away, having a peculiar familiarity, reminding Rod of the Hidden Sage Royeger.

Did he specifically hide them?

Rod pondered, extending his hand, the distant gap closing in an instant.

He touched the relic ashes, countless ashes instantly merged into his soul.

In his mind, came the Book of Knowledge’s shout: "Master, you’ve succeeded, we retrieved the relics of ten stars, they’re all on the Soul Wilderness, quickly return and reignite our glory!"
