The Last King Of Darkness
Chapter 640 - 377: Stars Twinkling and the Great Star (Second Update)_2

Chapter 640: Chapter 377: Stars Twinkling and the Great Star (Second Update)_2

The use of Void Fury in the Trident River battle had cost him 24 points of Divinity, but it was profitable.

If he had summoned Alan according to the plan, the deficit in Divinity would have been 200.

After altering the plan, he gained an additional 72 points of Divinity.

"Disturbing the upper Spirit Realm" was an old problem. As long as the Dream Bubble remained adrift in the Spirit Realm, disturbance was inevitable.

But overall, it was much less than last time.

The Source feedback, on the other hand, was what Rod had been most worried about. Offering sacrifices on the Soul Altar that were not part of it had triggered a shock throughout the Black Fog World.

He thought he would lose a lot, but surprisingly, it was only reduced by 15 points.

The Book of Knowledge provided the same explanation, "The Source feedback from the Black Fog targets dreams directly, and influences unrelated to humanity do not generate Divinity. The 15 points deducted were because the Source feedback roused the deep powers of the Black Fog, posing a threat to humanity."

Rod nodded and frowned at the last item.

"The Chosen of Fire... what is that?"

The Book of Knowledge replied, "It refers to the guardians bestowed by fire upon humanity, also known as individuals with the ’Eternal Burning Fire’ trait."

"Why were 5 points deducted?"

Rod thought for a moment.

"I haven’t harmed them. Xingge asked me several times to tutor her and I never went, and I haven’t seen Jon for a long time. Qingyu... Qingyu?"

Rod suddenly realized, Qingyu had shielded me from the severe cold, and his own power was affected!

He had lost 5 points of Divinity because of this!

Rod was slightly surprised to realize how important they were! Just a loss of strength could impact the safety of all humanity.

Does that mean, if I help them increase their strength, I could gain Divinity?

Alright, next time they suffer from the cold, I will help them keep warm!

With that thought fixed in his mind, Rod no longer looked at the text on the Obelisk and said, "The Divinity has been adjusted; it’s time to increase my power."

Over this period, Rod had acutely felt that the stronger his power, the more Divinity he gained.

The more Divinity he had, the stronger his power would become, creating a positive cycle!

As his growth accelerated, one day he would surely take up the mantle for humanity.

The king of humanity could then return!

The Book of Knowledge was also very excited and quickly wrote, "With so much Divinity, we have enough to use. With twenty-one days left until Nightmare Night, we must increase our power as much as possible during this period."

Rod glanced at the top of the Obelisk, where the data had now changed to:

Soul Strength: 672200

Soul Stars: 8

Humanity: 20.61 million

Divinity: 295

Soul Without Spirit: 1.66 billion

Obelisk: one Source, one Strong Source

Soul Altar: 1628 souls

Spirituality: 169,000

Storage: 10 portions of Nightmare Fuel, 50 blocks of Cold Ice Soul Trait, 89,891 portions of Soul Residue, 2 pieces of Soul Firewood, 20 Flowers of Humanity, and more.

Special Items: 8 Guardians of Darkness, 1 Undying Spirit, 1 Twisted Balance, 3 Light Bells

----

This was all that he owned.

Compared to the beginning, it was now day and night.

Rod revealed a slight smile. After all his efforts during this time, he had finally filled the last gap needed to ignite the Power of Giant God.

Now, he could finally ignite his first Great Star.

The Book of Knowledge and the puppet simultaneously said, "Master, begin."

Rod lightly touched his forehead to the Obelisk, the world flipped, and he had entered the Soul Wilderness.

With a thought, his form flew at high speed toward the distant wilderness, with countless ashes sweeping under his feet, gradually thinning.

Moments later, Rod landed in the deadly silence of the darkness, facing what was the largest pile of ashes he had ever seen, several hundred yards across and over a hundred yards tall.

Looking up, it looked like a massive building turned to ash, majestic beyond measure.

With a thought from Rod, 1.5 billion souls descended from the sky, followed by 150,000 points of Spirituality, then a hint of invisible distortion.

With their addition, the lifeless ashes seemed to come alive.

The Voice of the Book of Knowledge’s consciousness transmitted from outside the wilderness, "Master, all is ready, only you can mobilize the Divinity, I need 130 points."

With a thought, a beam of Golden Light flew from the Obelisk, landing on the altar inside the House of God.

Exactly 130 points of Divinity.

The other auxiliary materials had already been arranged. The Book of Knowledge quickly produced 13 Soul Firewoods, which, together with the previous 2 Soul Firewoods, were cast into the Obelisk.

As the last of the materials fell, intense heat emanated from the ashes, and the air began to distort, resembling a furnace right before ignition.

The next moment, a blue flame soared into the sky, and on this boundless dark wilderness, a gigantic bonfire reignited.

Rod looked up at the flame that was dozens of stories high and felt for the first time a powerful force surging through his body; his soul felt restless and uneasy, filling him with an expansive sense of unreality.

Rod knew that this signified that his Spiritual Energy had surpassed the limit of his soul, and he needed to conduct the tenth-level Spiritual Energy advancement ceremony.

Within the blue flames, white text gradually materialized.

[Power of Giant God]

[State: Constant Burning]

[Star Energy: Power of Giant God]

[Quantification: Giant God Core]

[Position: Eternal Fire]

[Strength: 820000]

[Description: How dare I fall, with no one behind me]

——

Rod was completely stunned.

A strength of 820,000, a Star Envoy made his Soul Strength more than double.

Truly a super Star that required a "Strong Source"!

No wonder I could feel my power increasing so clearly.

Rod felt delighted and continued reading.

[Power of Giant God]: Temporarily gain the strength of a Giant God; afterwards, Spiritual Energy will enter a weakened state, the duration of which depends on the strength of the Spiritual Energy.

It seems very strong!

But its true power can only be known through testing.

Rod thought for a moment, the world turned over, and he was back in the Dream Realm.

The Book of Knowledge was stunned the moment it saw him, and after a moment, tremblingly wrote: "Good! Good! Good! You finally look a bit like the master of the Dream Realm! Who says humans can’t be great kings? Master will surely rekindle the Light of Humanity, holding a torch aloft in the Black Fog, leading humanity back to its peak!"

Rod said with a smile, "Book, when did you switch attitudes? How would you be able to endure if you acted like this all the time?"

The Book of Knowledge shivered its pages: "Silly master, it took you so long to return, you truly lost the face of the great Dream Realm!"

Rod smiled, ignoring the Book of Knowledge’s contradictory words, and asked, "I still have 165 points of Divinity. If I can acquire more Source, I could continue to ignite Stars, but should I do that?"

The pages of the Book of Knowledge curled, seeming somewhat conflicted: "No, that won’t do, Divinity should be reserved for handling crises, don’t use any more until the Nightmare Night arrives..."

"No." The puppet suddenly interrupted: "We still have a chance. When the Star Flash happens, Divinity can be immediately acquired by the Dream Realm. We have the chance to get more Divinity!"

The Book of Knowledge suddenly realized: "Right, right, that’s what I meant to say; Aphro, don’t interrupt me, Master, you now possess a Great Star, and your Spiritual Power Level has advanced to the tenth level. This is an important divide, marking your official entry among the ranks of the true strong. You can easily do many things that were impossible before, and obtain more Divinity!"

The puppet said, "Master, by leveraging humanity’s power with your strength, you can gain even more Divinity!"

The Book of Knowledge yelled angrily, "You laborer, why interject? The Star Flash moment will last for 6-7 days. During this window of opportunity, I will try everything, Master, just follow my arrangement, it knows nothing!"

Rod smiled, "I understand."

Finally, he glanced once more at the numbers on the Obelisk, which had now changed to:

Soul Strength: 1492200

Soul Stars: 9

Humanity: 20.61 million

Divinity: 165

Soul Without Spirit: 160 million

Obelisk: One Source

Soul Altar: 1615 Souls

Spirituality: 19,000

Storage: 10 Nightmare Fuels, 50 Cold Ice Soul Trait Blocks, 89891 Soul Residues, 20 Flowers of Humanity, etc.

Special Items: etc.

——

Strong!

So strong!

I’ve become stronger again!

Rod clenched his fists, thought for a moment, and his soul immediately plummeted, leaving the Dream Realm.

Trolian, I’m coming!
