Horus quickly healed his own injuries. The "Bright Light" characteristic can be applied to oneself, and since it’s a manipulation of one’s own soul, it is more convenient, without the problem of a healer being unable to heal themselves.
He also found the root of the problem in his soul—a black shadow, squirming in his palm as if it were alive.
When exposed to firelight, it quickly burned to ashes, and the air seed to capture its faint wails.
"What is this?" Even the well-inford Luo Weiya could not recognize it.
It was Rod who provided the answer: "Brain worm, a derivative resulting from the destruction of a soul body. It doesn’t affect the soul itself... fortunately, once it separates out, it indicates that the soul has recovered."
"How do you know?"
Rod pointed to his head: "My wisdom told ."
Luo Weiya thought he was praising his own mory and said faintly: "The things in the Great Book Library aren’t necessarily completely accurate..."
"No, Luo Weiya."
Horus interrupted him.
"I can feel it, that dark feeling is gone, my soul seems to have been released from a damp dungeon."
Everyone broke into smiles, and Jelaba said joyfully, "That’s great."
If it weren’t for the Archbishop, the upcoming battle would be very troubleso. The Silence Stone requires very precise spiritual energy manipulation, and Horus is the most suitable candidate.
Horus had no mory of what just happened, but he could sense that anxious emotion.
It was a severe tornt from deep within, as if sothing terrifying was awaiting him.
Jelaba recounted the events that just occurred in detail.
After listening, Horus was silent for a long ti and sighed, "I owe you all an apology. In retrospect, I realize I’ve experienced partial mory loss in recent tis, which is a very suspicious matter that I didn’t notice."
Jelaba asked, "Can you recall when the mory loss began, Archbishop?"
"It started from Star Ring Town."
Jelaba nodded: "There are two possibilities, one is that he was cursed by the Doomsday believers at that ti, and the other is that it happened earlier but abnormalities only appeared at Star Ring Town."
Horus’s face turned very grim.
For him, as the Archbishop, it’s an unbearable sha, but now is not the ti for self-pity, as they are about to face the most crucial battle.
Before that, they had one more task, which was to eliminate the Dark Stars wandering below.
Everyone set up in a battle formation, preparing to use the strongest attack to wipe it out in the shortest ti possible.
No one noticed Rod’s anxious struggle in the corner, unable to dispel the Dark Stars summoning.
According to the function of the "Soul Ashes," Rod should be able to dismiss the summoning when not needed.
However, although he can control the Dark Stars, he cannot dismiss it.
"What is going on?"
Rod, sweating, frantically asked in his mind, "Book, speak up."
The Book of Knowledge also seed perplexed: "How is this possible? How could sothing go wrong with a Dream Creation? Could a forbidden entity have tampered with it secretly?"
Before Rod could respond, it denied its own words.
"No, this is impossible, no one can alter a Dream Creation... Aphro, have you noticed anything?"
The doll’s expression looked extrely serious: "Master, I feel that the Dark Stars is not unable to dissipate, but is being locked by sothing. I have a very uneasy feeling..."
Rod frowned, and before he could speak, he heard a loud shout.
"Everyone, hide imdiately! The first hour of noon has arrived!"
Rod felt a chill in his heart and didn’t have ti to think, quickly ducking into a small pit with phit.
Seconds later, a loud roar arrived as expected.
"The Stars are eternal!"
But the next sound didn’t co on ti; instead, the roar turned intensely urgent!
"Intrusion! Intrusion! Intrusion!"
"Dark undead, evil stars, the source of all disaster, I banish you in the na of the Eternal Stars!"
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A terrifying tide ca from the horizon, and Rod felt the ground trembling, the air shivering, the world seeming to be split apart, with everything toppling.
A blinding beam pierced through the Black Fog, firing in from an unseen distance.
The skull shell of the Dark Stars, which had withstood the blows of five Great Demon Gods for ages without shattering, was pierced by the intense light in an instant and shattered into pieces.
Rod’s eyes showed a line of text.
"Soul summoning, Dark Stars has been destroyed."
What?
Before Rod could process this thought, he sensed an overwhelmingly powerful entity approaching with infinite montum.
The feeling was as if a giant mountain was flying across the sky.
Liszt scread, "Not good! It’s the Main Star Priest, the Main Star Priest has been alerted! He’s coming!"
Everyone’s expressions turned grim.
"Why did this happen?" Olivia asked with a pale face. The Main Star Priest is a King-level entity, and engaging in combat with a King-level monster here is extrely unwise.
Jelaba lifted his great hamr and stood up from behind the cover.
"It must be because of the Dark Stars, it is a greatly feared enemy of the Starry Kingdom."
"The Starry Kingdom worships the stars, believing that everything is part of the stars, but the Dark Stars is the undead of the stars, sothing completely unacceptable in their faith."
"Prepare for battle, it is coming!"
The sound of air roaring ca closer and closer, indicating an entity far more powerful than the Great Demon God was approaching at a terrifying speed.
"Destruction, destruction, destruction!"
"The Eternal Stars shall prevail!"
"The Starry Queen is invincible!"
"The Starry Kingdom is immortal!"
"Stars, grant victory!"
With every roar, a corresponding beam of light hit where the Dark Stars had been, but it had long since been shattered into dust, dissipating in the air.
When the final shout was made, everyone saw, in the distance, a teor crashing towards them.
"No, more than one!" soone shouted.
Everyone turned to see the sky full of teors, countless fire teors, trailing long tails, crashing down towards them.
The entire sky was obscured by the light of the teors, with not even the Black Fog visible.
In the next mont, a tall figure in luxurious robes appeared mid-air, with extrely strong spiritual energy swirling around him, causing the light to distort, and the space buckling under the trendous pressure, collapsing downwards.
His face was a blur, holding a magic wand high.
"Intruders! Intruders!"
"I am Astelios, the Main Star Priest! Guardian of the Starry Kingdom, Watcher of the Infinite Night Sky, I denounce the disappearance of light, strike down the growth of shadows, and those who covet our blood shall be annihilated under my power of stars!"
Boom!
The spiritual light at the tip of the wand instantly engulfed everyone!
Space rapidly collapsed, and a massive gravitational pull instantly dragged Rod upwards.
"You will be the first!"
Snap!
