The Last King Of Darkness

Rod’s heart sank, a nameless tension swept through his spirit, but he still did as instructed, holding Mephit’s cold little hand, leaning lightly against the Dream Realm’s tombstone, and, under Asa’s guidance, entered a deep sleep state.

This feeling was very peculiar. Rod could clearly know he was in a sleep state, yet possessed full consciousness and thought, like having a waking dream.

Endless darkness enveloped his vision, yet he seemed to see everything, an inexplicable sensation made him move forward, the darkness gradually faded, silver and white ice and snow covered the sky and the earth, he seemed to have come to a realm of ice and snow where everything was frozen in extreme cold.

Soon, he saw the Royal City covered in ice and snow, silver frost completely covering this vast city, everyone was frozen into ice sculptures, he clearly saw the figures of Solos, Viheler, Luo Weiya and others, they were stiff in the snow, lifeless, and the Holy Fire in the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground had long been extinguished, Qingyu sitting alone on the icy Throne, had been dead for a long time.

Rod glanced around, seeing the entire Three Realms plunged into cold silence, even the Black Fog turned into black snow falling, the Starry Sky became exceptionally clear, he could even always see the distant upper Spirit Realm, where he saw the fragmented Dream Bubble, its corpse shining with icy cold light, forming a line of text in the Void:

[Silent Destruction]

Rod suddenly opened his eyes, everything in front of him had disappeared, he saw the familiar Dream Realm, that sea of life-filled flowers, that burning Obelisk, only then did he realize that he had awakened from the false sleep, that icy fear gradually dissipated, but his back was still cold, and the little hand he was holding was also bone-chilling.

"Master!" Asa shouted: "What did you see?"

Rod stood up from the tombstone, but the cold feeling did not diminish, only then did he realize that his back was covered in cold sweat.

"I saw destruction."

He told Asa everything about the Dream Realm, who incredulously shouted: "How could this happen? Why would this happen?"

The Book of Knowledge quickly flipped its pages, shouting: "Master, my guess was not wrong, Mephit must have some terrifying reserve on her, allowing her to regain her power will destroy the world!"

"But, even the Black Fog was frozen into snowflakes!"

"It doesn’t matter, the Black Fog can exist in any form, only complete purification can destroy it... perhaps, this is the world after the Black Fog erodes the Sea of Source, and everything falls into silent extinction, the so-called deep dark Epoch."

Rod’s heart sank: "So what should we do?"

The puppet said softly: "Kill her!"

Rod fell silent, killing her was undoubtedly the most direct option, but he was unwilling to do so.

"No!" The Book of Knowledge shouted: "This might be the reason we guessed wrong about the soul ripples, among the three soul ripples, Cold Ice, spiritual control, and Darkening, we chose the easiest to control Cold Ice, but it might have been a trap."

Asa nodded: "Yes, the initial Divine King Atos might have gone mad after falling, causing his Angel Envoy to also acquire the seed of destruction, if we can evade it, perhaps we can normally wield her power."

"But, we’ve already awakened part of the Cold Ice, can it be changed?"

"Master, this human is very special, the powerful force exists in a very special and imperceptible form within her soul, we simply provide enough Humanity to allow her to control this power, as long as the Humanity is transferred, the awakened soul area can be changed, but the problem is, which soul ripple should we choose to awaken?"

Rod was silent for a few seconds, then answered: "Spiritual control."

This was also Asa’s and the Book of Knowledge’s thought, as Darkening and Black Fog were too similar and potentially more dangerous.

Subsequently, Asa, who was highly familiar with Mephit’s soul blueprint, began operations. Asa, now very strong, quickly completed the transfer of Humanity, Mephit’s soul blossomed with extraordinary spiritual light, Cold Ice and Darkening quieted down, and the Source Law was completed in conversion.

The Cold Ice on Mephit dissipated, replaced by a very dangerous aura, this feeling made Rod very uncomfortable, the sense of danger in his soul did not dissipate.

Asa, however, confidently said: "Master, this time it should be right, I feel very safe, let’s try again."

Rod nodded, and under Asa’s guidance, once again entered a deep sleep.

Sure enough, this time Rod did not see ice and snow, the world was shrouded in a peculiar dust, everywhere was gray and hazy, but, when he looked up, he once again saw the Royal City where the Holy Fire had been extinguished.

A slender figure stood high at the top of the Royal City, intense spiritual light radiated from her body, wherever it went, countless people knelt before her, even some weak monsters prostrated, as if paying homage to their Queen, an immensely colossal figure appeared behind her, it was an unbelievably enormous Mother Insect, its terrifying consciousness formed into tangible ripples spreading out, at the same time, an incomparably magnificent figure appeared behind it, the shining light engulfing the universe formed a line of text before Rod’s eyes.

[Nest Destruction]

The immense sense of suffocation immediately made Rod open his eyes, the illusion dissipated, but his spirit still lingered with that rock-hard twist, it was forcibly assimilating his spirit, turning him into a puppet.
