The Last King Of Darkness
Chapter 605 - 360 Endurance

Chapter 605: Chapter 360 Endurance

The Hall’s training ground was very high-end, lacking none of the various functional training facilities. Strong Spiritual Protection made it very difficult for the grounds to be damaged, and its vast area was fully suitable for the free display of High Rank Combatants.

Rod spent one hundred thousand silver coins to open a top-tier training ground.

What made it different from other training grounds was that it had two Measurement Crystals: one could measure the instant fluctuations of Spiritual Energy and calculate the consumption from that, while the other could estimate the Destructive Power of an attack.

Rod tested it and found that with his bare hands charged to the limit, the strongest strike could achieve a Destructive Power of 1000.

The power of the Quick Star Shuttle was 800, whereas the Full Star Shuttle’s power was around 5000.

The Deep Sea Hider’s Trident increased the power by about 20%, also consuming a corresponding amount of Spiritual Energy.

The Executor gloves reduced the time for the Quick Star Shuttle by a third and increased the power of the Full Star Shuttle by a third.

What surprised Rod was that the Spiritual Energy consumption of the Full Star Shuttle was only double that of the Quick Star Shuttle, yet its power exceeded six times as much.

It seemed that the incomplete Star Shuttle was indeed not perfected, with high consumption, weak power, and extremely low cost-effectiveness.

In the future, it should be used as little as possible and not as a main combat method.

On the other hand, a Star Light Long Sword condensed from Star Dust performed unexpectedly well. Rod, swinging with all his might, could achieve a Destructive Power of around 2000, which was twice as strong as with bare hands.

It seemed using a long sword in battle could become my main method,

Rod thought to himself.

Although condensing a Star Dust Longsword consumed a lot of Spiritual Energy, it was still more economical than using the Star Shuttle.

The last test was the Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies.

Of course, considering the upper limit of the Measurement Crystal was ten thousand, Rod did not continue for very long.

The initial power of the Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies was only 500, doubling every two seconds.

It seemed low, but by the tenth second, it had exceeded 16,000, which was enough to break the Measurement Crystal. Rod stopped at the eighth second.

Back in the Trident River Region, the Insect Queen had withstood it for 22 seconds, increasing the power of the Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies by 2048 times. If the Measurement Crystal could have handled it, he would have seen an astonishing number of one million.

As Rod mentally calculated the specific number, he couldn’t help but be astounded.

In this light, the Insect Queen was stronger than he had imagined; if he were to use normal combat methods, there’s no telling how long the fight would have lasted.

Obtaining the "three Great Souls" might be even harder than imagined,

Rod felt a slight worry in his heart.

Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies + Infinite Awakening was a forbidden method not to be used lightly.

But on second thoughts, the Insect Queen was merely an incomplete "Great Soul," whereas the master of nightmares was a complete "Great Soul." Didn’t that prove that the master of nightmares was stronger than the Insect Queen?

The Dream Realm had only used four Spirit Realm Strikes to kill it.

So, wasn’t the power of the Spirit Realm Strike extremely strong?

A feeling of joy suddenly rose in Rod’s heart.

If I have enough Divinity to kill more monsters like the master of nightmares, wouldn’t I quickly be able to gather the three "Great Souls"?

Hahaha!

The Dream Realm is truly worthy; those 10 points of Divinity were not spent in vain!

In the end, Rod tested the newly-acquired Eighth Star "Wind’s Phantom."

With a thought, his Spiritual Energy infused into the Star, triggering its laws in a specific trajectory. An odd fluctuation coalesced before him, and a translucent Phantom appeared in front of him.

It looked identical to him, even the equipment on his body was exactly the same. If it weren’t for the translucent shadow form, it would be just another self.

Rod tried, and the Shadow had no intelligence of its own; it needed his full control.

When he concentrated, the scene in front of him split in two: one side was his own point of view, the other was the Shadow’s. He could fully manipulate the Shadow, as if controlling another self.

Not only the abilities, but even the Spiritual Energy flowed without hindrance.

Rod faintly sensed that the Shadow had a very peculiar connection with his Soul, everything about him seemed to be projected into the Shadow, Spiritual Energy vanished out of thin air in his body and emerged out of thin air in the Shadow, without any loss, as if the Shadow was an extension of his Soul.

He used the Shadow to attack the Crystal, and the power was exactly the same as his original self.

Rod was joyous in his heart: one me has become two, isn’t this a doubling of my strength?

And that’s not even the end of it.

If the monster’s strength is formidable, one me might not be able to handle it, but two of me is different, one defending in the front, the other ambushing from behind.

Attacking from both sides, wouldn’t the enemy become like a sandwich biscuit?

Even the Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies could be released double!

If I were to encounter a monster like the Insect Queen again, maybe I wouldn’t even need to use the Void Fury, I could hold my own directly!

Haha!

Rod was boiling with excitement for a moment, wanting the flame symbol on his collar to light up immediately, adjusting his battle sequence to the front line, and throwing him back into battle.

"Wind’s Phantom" was simply too strong!

The only downside was that any activity of the Shadow required the consumption of Spiritual Energy, which was double that of the original.

The core was still Spiritual Energy!

Spiritual Energy was everything!

I must ignite the ninth star!

Rod was excited in his heart and energetically trained swordsmanship in the training field.

This was the most energy-saving combat method, capable of inflicting the most damage with the same consumption of Spiritual Energy.

Next was the Star Shuttle.

The lowest was the Spiritual Power Multiple Melodies.

Despite its mighty power, the consumption of Spiritual Energy was astonishingly high, and it was utterly disproportionate.
