Ye Feng said, "This is a risk unique to the warriors of the Starfire Series. Sotis we awaken an uncontrollable Fire Spark, which brings us imnse burden and even destruction. The stronger the Starfire, the more likely it is to appear. You must be careful."
Rod smiled faintly and nodded, but he didn’t pay it much mind. He essentially wasn’t part of the Starfire Series. With the Book of Knowledge, such a situation wouldn’t happen within the stars.
In the distance, as the Undead Banshee dissipated, Jessica also exited her Awakened State and returned to human form.
In this battle, if Rod was the one with the most contributions, then the second would undoubtedly be her.
If it weren’t for Jessica holding off so many Undead Banshees, they would never have been able to et the Great Star Priest.
But when Jessica arrived, Rod was surprised to find that she didn’t even have a scratch on her body. Her soul was still bright and healthy, showing no signs of Spiritual Energy exhaustion.
"You’re not hurt? So many Undead Banshees..."
Jessica smiled and said, "When I liberated the magic power of my soul and transford into the Six-Ard Snake Demon, my Spiritual Energy beca extrely thick. If it can’t break through my defensive limits, I will never get hurt, never get tired, never have my Spiritual Energy depleted. However..."
Her slender and beautiful eyes gazed at Rod, smiling at the corners of her mouth.
"Aren’t you the most amazing, little Rod?"
Ye Feng coughed, "Let’s report to the Archbishop quickly. The situation at Death Ridge is very strange, maybe we can uncover many secrets from there."
Rod nodded. Although the Great Star Priest was eliminated and the source of the threat at Death Ridge was resolved, the matter wasn’t over.
From the words of the Great Star Priest, it can be deduced that this should have been the place where the last fleeing party of the Starry Kingdom perished. Millions died tragically here, and the Starry Kingdom’s last remaining force was annihilated.
This is also why the aura of death here is so intense. Excessive death changed the Source Law of this region, making the Law of Death dominant here, which is why the Great Star Priest was able to summon powerful Undead Banshees.
So, what happened here a thousand years ago?
Did the other nine priests ntioned by the Great Star Priest also die here?
What relics did the Starry Kingdom leave behind?
These are questions they desperately want answered. If they can glean the reasons for the Starry Kingdom’s demise, even better.
Rod had even more questions. When he touched the Dream Fragnt, the Great Star Priest said sothing to him, in a very light voice, only he could hear.
In those words, it seed he mistook him for so Prince, saying the Queen was waiting for him, had waited a long ti, and asked if the flas of Starry could reignite.
Clearly, he had so connection to the Dream Realm.
The Prince he spoke of made Rod think of the shadow he first saw, the previous owner of the Dream Realm.
[Blossoms on the Frosty Shore, Northern Prince Heigao’er]
If it really is him, doesn’t that an he knew the previous Dream Realm owner?
Not only did he know, but the Starry Queen also knew.
This Dream Fragnt, was it taken unintentionally after he beca a monster, or has it always been in his possession?
If he really is the previous Dream Realm owner, when he asked, "Has the Prince returned?" It indicates the Northern Prince has been gone a long ti? Are they all eagerly awaiting the Prince’s return?
But why is there no trace of all this in the Book of Knowledge and the puppet’s mories?
Countless speculations echoed in his mind, and Rod felt nurous possibilities, urgently wanting to find more evidence to determine which possibility is correct.
Thus, they continued passing information to Star Ring Town while beginning to excavate Death Ridge.
Sure enough, they quickly found a large number of corpses, decayed to just bones, mostly piled together as if pressed by so great force.
Jessica said solemnly, "This place is indeed strange. Even ordinary people here can preserve their corpses."
"Yes, that Great Star Priest too, his state was very strange. It’s the first ti I’ve seen such a Fallen."
"He seed to retain a trace of consciousness."
Rod nodded slightly. Such a strange Fallen wasn’t just new to him; it was new to everyone here.
"Perhaps," Rod mused, "the Starry Kingdom mastered so mysterious power that can resist the Black Fog."
Ye Feng felt his mind suddenly open, both shocked and delighted, "It seems really possible."
Jessica laughed, "Brother Rod, I find your brain quite useful sotis."
Rod was about to reply when suddenly, his body softened. Unable to stand, he fell to the ground.
[Blank] had ended.
The delayed state retaliated a millionfold. In an instant, Rod’s vision went dark, and he lost consciousness.
In everyone’s view, Rod suddenly collapsed like a puppet with cut strings.
"Rod!"
The three cried out in unison and rushed forward to catch him.
A strong sense of chaos and fragntation hit them, and they were shocked to find Rod’s soul was already riddled with holes, like a mass of sludge, his life essence rapidly fading, Spiritual Energy leaking from his soul like a deflated balloon.
"This is bad!"
Ye Feng’s expression changed.
"He’s in mortal danger, the cost is too high!"
"Quick, notify the Archbishop!"
The three ignored the digging and searching, picked up Rod, and ran towards Star Ring Town, pouring various Recovery Potions into his mouth.
