"Then let’s kill more Ancient Gods!"
Jon waved his hand.
"We have the power now. At the end of the Ancient Epoch, weren’t there four True Gods? We’ve killed one, there are three left. Let’s find them and kill them!"
Rod slightly raised an eyebrow: "That’s not a simple task. If my expectations are correct, the remaining three True Gods are likely deep within so part of the Abyss, possibly very close to its bottom, which is a place we’ve never ventured to."
Jon said in a deep voice, "When we have the third, fourth, and fifth True Kings, this won’t be out of reach."
"Alright."
The King interrupted their conversation: "That’s for later. What we need to do now is, what does the final Ascension Ceremony require? How should we proceed?"
Rod pondered: "King, after the changes, the final Ascension Ceremony no longer requires Pure Star Source, Pure Star Marrow, and Light Stone. It only requires Divine Stones. Each ceremony requires 3 Divine Stones, which can be fused into 1 piece of Divine Source Material. There are a total of 6 pieces of Divine Source Material, aning 18 Divine Stones are needed, and this is entirely within our capacity."
The King nodded: "Very well, let’s complete this ceremony as soon as possible. With one more True King in Trolian, we will have more assurance."
Qingyu hesitated for a mont, then softly asked, "King, is there any danger in this ceremony? Can the last words of the Saint Reel Pope ensure it’s absolutely safe?"
This question struck a chord with everyone. Unlike the Ascension Ceremony, this final Ascension Ceremony had been modified. Although the Pope certainly wouldn’t deceive them, what if so interference had been encountered?
The King pondered: "I will have the White Tower make a prediction. If there’s an issue, Iyeta will spot its dangers."
Rod also decided to use the Book of the Future to ensure its safety. The King is the absolute pillar of Trolian, no problems can be allowed.
After that, the King sent Jon and Qingyu to the frontlines. The Guardian of the Holy Fire had awakened, so they were no longer needed for protection.
Rod was about to leave as well, but the King called him back.
"Little Rod, weren’t you curious about how I beca stronger?"
Rod widened his eyes. I didn’t even say it out loud, how did you know?
The King smiled: "I bet you’re thinking how I knew even though you didn’t say it?"
Rod was taken aback: "King, do you have telepathy?"
The King laughed softly: "No, I can just sense the echoes of souls, so occasionally I hear voices from others’ souls—of course, not all, just so of the stronger ones."
He gave Rod a aningful look.
Rod imdiately understood. No wonder the King had always been so lenient with him, often providing necessary assistance at critical monts. It wasn’t just because of Theodore’s soul echoes.
Of course, regarding the secrets of the Dream Realm, he probably didn’t know much either, but certainly guessed that Rod carried so unique secrets, much like the Source Heavenly God’s Throne, which cannot be openly revealed in any form.
"I see."
Rod coughed, indicating he understood the King’s hint.
"I guess, is it because of the Holy Fire?"
The King showed an appreciative smile: "Little Rod, your wisdom has never disappointed . The third Holy Fire Seed you brought back greatly strengthened the power of the Holy Fire. It can be said that in the near future, Trolian will definitely ascend to a higher level, and as the Resonator of the Holy Fire, I have also been enhanced."
Rod curiously asked: "Did your Divine Country beco stronger? I didn’t feel any change in your soul."
"Yes and no."
The King shook his head slightly.
"My Divine Country is very strange. It doesn’t expand like the God of Contaminated Blood’s does; it always maintains its smallest state. I’ve felt for so ti that it is related to the Holy Fire. It seems my Divine Country is this burning Holy Fire. Maybe Eternal Burning Fire’s Divine Country is like this, but it doesn’t seem to affect much."
Rod was surprised and asked: "Is that the Root Origin?"
He suddenly rembered Horus’s 25 pieces of Strong Source, the complete Bright Light Source Law, and beca very curious about how strong the King’s Root Origin was.
However, the King’s soul was too powerful, the Soul Body boiling, a burning Divine Fire.
Under its cover, it was impossible to see the strength of the Root Origin.
But the next second, the King’s soul beca transparent and clear, the boiling Soul Body cald down, and the engraving of the Root Origin was deeply revealed.
Rod was taken aback, knowing that the King had again heard his "inner voice," so he imdiately activated the Eye of the Soul and focused his gaze.
The powerful, vast, and profound aura of the Root Origin, like the universe, imdiately swept over, the lody from the world’s foundation sang in his ears, and almost instantly, Rod and the Book of Knowledge shouted.
"Six pieces!"
Rod was utterly shocked: "The King actually possesses six pieces of Root Origin? How many do I have?"
The Book of Knowledge imdiately replied: "Master, you only have 3 and a half pieces."
"What? Didn’t I use nine pieces of Root Origin to light up the [Sacrifice]?"
The Book of Knowledge flipped its pages: "Master, please note, Source Laws belong to the soul’s engravings, they cannot be plundered or transferred. When a soul perishes, the Source undergoes Quantization, returns to the Void, and once again becos a formless, substance-less existence in the Sea of Source. The Dream Realm’s Source Assimilation, in essence, is just using the Source Law, which has beco specialized due to Dream Realm influence, to ignite the Source Law of Stars, loss is normal."
"For the Dream Realm, 100 pieces of awakened Source Energy are equivalent to 1 piece of Root Origin, [Sacrifice] possesses 300 pieces of Source Energy, its strength is equivalent to 3 pieces of Root Origin, the remaining stars together have about 100 pieces of Source Energy, but only about half are awakened, their strength is equivalent to half a piece of Root Origin, so you have a total of 3 and a half pieces of Root Origin."
Rod finally understood, and couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed: "Only 3 and a half pieces, when will it reach 25 pieces?"
The Book of Knowledge explained: "The Blood God also possesses 3 pieces of Root Origin, yet it doesn’t affect His power. As I’ve said, the factors determining strength are varied."
"Also, you’re quite special, because of the existence of the Dream Realm, its power and completeness are more important for you."
Rod nodded slightly: "I understand. It seems I should hasten the Quantification and Awakening of so stars."
The Book of Knowledge said: "Master, for now, the stars can’t be awakened. I’m not sure why, but my premonition is filled with extre danger."
Rod’s heart sank, this was the reason why, apart from [Sacrifice], he hadn’t completed any star awakenings recently.
The Book of Knowledge then said: "Master, I suddenly thought, the King’s strengthening should be related to the Source Heavenly God’s Throne."
Rod suddenly realized, rembering when Asa told him that the Source Heavenly God’s Throne requires powerful fire to drive it, the stronger the fire, the stronger the power of the Source Heavenly God Throne.
Sure enough, after he voiced this guess, the King showed a surprised expression, sighing: "Little Rod, I underestimated your wisdom, you actually hit the mark."
"Indeed, because the Holy Fire used the third Holy Fire Seed, entering the third stage, the power of the Source Heavenly God’s Throne has beco stronger, allowing to influence many things, such as you."
The King extended a finger, gently tapping Rod’s forehead.
At that mont, Rod felt as if the gears of destiny had been nudged, the cosmos seed to shift slightly.
The panicked voice of the Book of Knowledge sounded in his ear.
"What happened? Why, why did the awakening of the stars revert to its previous state?"
