When Rod saw the ten points of divinity shining with golden light disappearing into the mist on Star Square, he was certain that the excrent king had been completely eradicated here.
The true culprits that gave birth to the excrent king, thirteen soul dust particles containing certain characteristic power tracks, were all seized by Asa.
Thus, the threat in the Plague Forest was entirely eliminated, and it would not reappear for a long ti in the future.
Asa erged from the filth, and Rod was surprised to find the phantom severely damaged, the body covered with dents and broken places, and even one arm was broken. It seed Asa wasn’t as relaxed as he claid.
However, the Wind’s Phantom proved it was no longer a fragile bubble. Judging by the extent of Asa’s injuries, its strength was not low, and it could also share damage with Rod. Several of the excrent king’s ambushes landed successfully, but all the damage was absorbed by Asa.
Ha ha!
Rod was overjoyed.
[Wind’s Phantom] was truly powerful. I must quickly quantify the remaining three stars.
"Asa, well done."
Asa said arrogantly, "How’s that? Have you seen the prowess of the Evil Soul Spirit? If not for that treacherous book, you wouldn’t have defeated . You’re incredibly lucky to have an ally like now; light and shadow, good and evil, sacred and filthy united, there’s nothing in this world that can counter us. Of course, the Black Fog remains invincible; it’s a higher existence beyond our reach."
Rod couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. Although the excrent king was completely eliminated, the situation was very dire. The commotion they caused was too great; they blew up hundreds of excrent mountains, driving all the plague giant beasts in the Plague Forest into a frenzy. They had to retreat quickly.
"Alright, you go back. I’m going to dissolve the phantom."
But Asa didn’t leave imdiately. Coldly, he said, "Successor of the Heavenly God Throne, you must keep your word. Don’t forget our agreent."
Rod impatiently replied, "I know. I have no interest in devouring the power of excrent."
Asa snorted coldly.
"Words are cheap, but I’ve witnessed too many betrayals. Once you truly understand the power of devouring excrent, I fear you’ll reconsider."
Rod rolled his eyes, doing his best to ignore the surrounding filth to avoid vomiting.
"I made an agreent with you in the na of the Dream Realm. That’s my foundation, and I won’t go back on it. You can go ahead and acquire the power of devouring the excrent king."
Only then did Asa feel relieved, his expression softened, and his tone eased as he smiled darkly.
"Great successor, you won’t be disappointed. Once I beco the excrent king of devouring, you will gain a trendously great ally. I shall devour all excrent in this world that contains power, helping you console that pitiful fla. After you experience unavoidable fated defeat, I will stand on the summit of the world, on the light of your downfall, transforming the world with excrent..."
"Alright, alright."
Rod directly dissolved the phantom, sending Asa’s soul back to the Dream Realm.
At this mont, Ye Feng and his two companions could no longer hold out. Plague giants charged from all directions. At the forefront, Riegel was trampled by dozens of plague giants, causing even the ground to cave in, and old, foul water and mud were rushing towards the pit.
"Mission accomplished!" Rod shouted, "Retreat quickly!"
Vito split out a wisp of white smoke, darting like lightning into the mud pit to pull Riegel out, then soared into the sky.
Spiritual light flashed beneath Ye Feng’s feet, and he stepped into the air.
"Damn, you guys, take with you!"
But they vanished behind the Black Fog in the blink of an eye, leaving Rod to flee alone through the filthy mud.
Fortunately, he was fast and quickly outran the rabid plague giants.
These indestructible beasts stopped chasing after leaving the Plague Forest’s boundaries and gradually returned.
Rod stood at a distance, watching them retreat, thinking that perhaps this was why they weren’t considered a threat.
—Despite the plague beasts being incredibly troubleso, they wouldn’t leave the Plague Forest and had no impact on the upcoming Starry Sky City battle, so there was no need to clear them out.
However, the battlefield still swarming with monsters after the battle ended felt really unpleasant.
Rod gazed at the now-invisible Plague Forest, which was nothing but rolling Black Fog and endless darkness, yet he knew, on that filthy land, countless powerful monsters still road. The plague beasts were so hard to kill that Rod never saw its soul vulnerability from start to finish.
That profound, sluggish spiritual energy seed to have endless depth. He wasn’t even sure if he could kill one solo.
For the first ti, Rod felt the horror of endless darkness. Taming every monster seed to be just a fantasy; the plague beasts weren’t even the strongest, yet they could leave four top human warriors helpless.
What about even stronger monsters?
What about that Starry Sky City, still lurking with countless horrors?
And the unknown dark presence that split open Death’s Trace Canyon with one strike?
Rod withdrew his thoughts, no longer dwelling on it. Regardless of what happened, he would continue down this path, all the way to final victory, or fall like the previous Dream Realm master.
There was no third choice.
Upon returning to Star Ring Town, Rod found that Ye Feng and the others had long arrived and were waiting for him at the town entrance.
