The Last King Of Darkness

Chapter 565: Chapter 345: The Former Master

Divinity?

Rod was startled for a second before he remembered. After being repaired by the "Book of Knowledge," Star Square could predict certain actions he took and their impact on divinity.

But I haven’t done anything now?

The "Book of Knowledge" shouted, "30 points of divinity! Hurry, hurry, hurry! What are you spacing out for?"

Rod couldn’t help but respond, "What am I about to do?"

The "Book of Knowledge" quickly replied, "Do what you’re about to do!"

Rod was startled.

The things I’m about to do?

He turned his gaze to the Archbishop, who was looking anxiously towards their King.

Rod suddenly came to his senses, "This monster, is it in the Spirit Realm?"

The Archbishop nodded slightly, "In the Outer Spirit Realm. The King’s soul has crossed the barrier between the Inner Spirit Realm and the Outer Spirit Realm to battle it, which is very disadvantageous."

"But there is no other way. The Master of Nightmares has been coveting the Holy Fire for a long time. The King has always been on guard against it. Its pollution is astonishing, gathering an unimaginable amount of Black Fog, which cannot be allowed near the Holy Fire."

Rod asked in surprise, "Is the Master of Nightmares some kind of intelligent enemy?"

"No."

The Archbishop shook his head slightly.

"For the deformed monsters created by the erosion of the Black Fog, the Holy Fire that illuminates humanity is their extremely hated mortal enemy."

"To destroy and extinguish the fire is an instinct deeply ingrained in all monster souls, and one of the few logics in their chaotic behavior."

"The power of the Holy Fire penetrates the Material World, the Spirit Realm, and the Sea of Source. In a random occurrence, the Master of Nightmares wandering in the Spirit Realm came to the Outer Spirit Realm corresponding to the Royal City, feeling the power of the Holy Fire."

"Driven by instinct, it tried to extinguish the Holy Fire, but the King’s powerful aura kept it from daring to approach easily."

"The two sides faced off for a long time until today. Influenced by something unknown, it suddenly launched an attack, forcing the King to intercept it at the barrier of the Outer Spirit Realm."

"It’s a very dangerous battle."

Horus’s voice was deep and full of worry, his right hand clenched into a fist pressing against his chest, he closed his eyes and prayed devoutly.

"May the Holy Fire protect us and bring the King back victorious."

The golden Holy Fire shot straight into the sky, and the massive Power of Fire hit them full force.

The hot air entered his body through his nostrils, spreading to his limbs and body, making Rod feel fiery hot all over.

He now understood where these 30 points of divinity came from.

A surge of immense jubilation filled his heart. Rod pretended to follow Horus’s action and closed his eyes to pray, but his soul had already stepped into the Dream Realm.

After the "Dark Devourer" was quantified, the Dream Realm was undergoing continuous changes, colors were returning, the mist light and serene, the earth solid and stable, and the architecture and environment unified, no longer seeming abrupt and fragmented as before.

This faded dream was becoming real, no longer void and ethereal.

Rod felt like he hadn’t been here for just over a day, it felt like centuries.

The biggest change was the sky of the Dream Realm, from a foggy haze to a deep and remote starry sky.

The only fully quantified star shone in the sky, emitting a clear dark red light.

At this moment, the Dream Realm made Rod feel as if he had entered another world.

The "Book of Knowledge" burst out of a small blue-stone house, its pages flapping like a fan, even stirring up some dust from the ground.

"Master!"

A few large characters appeared on the pristine pages.

"Look, 30 points of divinity!"

Rod turned to look, only to see in the center of the Dream Realm’s Star Square, the colors transforming, the starry sky dimming, and a swath of mist forming abrupt text.

—Possible Divinity to be Gained: 30

The "Book of Knowledge" leapt onto Rod, writing frenetically, "30 points of divinity! 30 points of divinity! As long as we have divinity, we need not fear invasion! Only then can I recover to my complete form!"

Rod laughed and patted the book’s rear, "Book, don’t get too excited, we still don’t know if this will work."

He briefly narrated the situation just now, then asked,

"Book, can we use the Star Core’s Spirit Realm Strike to hit the Master of Nightmares in the Outer Spirit Realm?"

"The Master of Nightmares?"

The "Book of Knowledge" twisted a bit, the writing becoming hesitant.

"Theoretically, the Spirit Realm Strike can attack anywhere except the higher layers of the Spirit Realm, including the Outer Spirit Realm, but the problem is, the Master of Nightmares, Latotip, is a powerful ancient ruler, and a single Spirit Realm Strike is unlikely to kill him."

Ancient rulers refer to special powerful creatures that existed in a distant ancient period, dominating the land and ruling all beings, but also attacking and devouring each other.

Until the Black Fog emerged, they were corrupted and turned into pure monsters, either lying dormant underground or wandering in the Spirit Realm or the depths of the Black Fog, becoming a class of extremely powerful monsters.

However, the power difference among the ancient rulers was very large, some extremely powerful, nearly unbeatable, and some very weak, with some human newcomers who had gained power only a few years managing to attempt a kill.

According to theories by scholars from the Royal City, this was because the ancient rulers fought fiercely while being corrupted.

Some ancient rulers, unwilling to become crazed monsters, resisted the invasion of the Black Fog by mutilating their bodies, resulting in some of the corrupted ancient rulers being merely fragments of corpses.

Others are powerful complete forms.

Even after being corrupted, the ancient rulers still retained their instinct to devour each other, and upon devouring another, they not only gained the other’s power but also absorbed the power of the Black Fog condensed after corruption.
