Chapter 1117: Chapter 573: Star Soul
He also needed to catch up quickly.
During the time Rod was focused on reading, Trolian was undergoing rapid change.
Alehon and others completely took over the old fortress, transforming it into a large outpost.
The human defense advanced another significant step forward.
The super-large Sun Crystal vein had entered a regular state of mining, continuously sending Sun Crystals to the Royal City.
Starry Sky City was rendered completely useless, the Star Chart suffered severe pollution, and could no longer accumulate Star Sources; if forced to use, it would instead gather Black Water.
With no other choice, Molly had to shut down the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground of Starry Sky City.
From then on, the mission of Starry Sky City was fully completed, and all stationed personnel withdrew.
Everyone was overjoyed, and the Royal City even held a grand welcome ceremony for them.
Only Rod felt deeply regretful, having lost yet another source of Divinity.
A single Star Source provided 8 points of Divinity, accumulating quite a significant amount.
Igniting [Song of Life] required 760 Divinity, and he was in need of Divinity at this moment.
This huge gap had to be filled during the next Star Flash.
Rod was almost studying without rest, in a manner far more serious than during both his lifetimes combined.
Of course, he wasn’t just burying his head in the pile of old paper.
During this time, the Dream Realm was accelerating towards the edge of the Chaotic Sea.
Due to the Dream Realm lingering in the Chaotic Sea for too long, once it left the Yin Cloud, it was attacked by Spirit Realm monsters.
The initial attacks were relatively weak, posing no threat to the Dream Realm, but as the stay extended and the acceleration caused disturbances, more and stronger Spirit Realm monsters joined the assault on the Dream Realm.
Among them were higher-class Strong Level monsters.
The Book of Knowledge had to frequently deploy the Sun Tower, using Spirit Light Cannon to counterattack.
But the Sun Tower was severely damaged, lacking firepower and occupying Source Energy, reducing the speed of the Dream Realm.
Therefore, many times, the humanoid warrior would leave the Dream Realm to frenziedly slash nearby.
This time, Rod truly witnessed the combat power of the humanoid warrior.
Facing these monsters, even without the blessing of Divinity, it was invincible.
The humanoid warrior would typically dual-wield two Spiritual Blades, flying into the monster group, slashing and hacking wildly, chopping down large amounts of Spirit Realm monsters as if slicing melons and vegetables.
Shining with Golden Light, its figure moved in and out of the gray-black monster groups effortlessly; no thing could impede it in the least, most importantly, the humanoid warrior wouldn’t be corrupted or eroded by the Spirit Realm, and could move freely within it.
Of course, even just one humanoid warrior couldn’t handle all these covering monsters.
The Evil Ghost King soon joined the battle too.
After undergoing numerous dangerous soul transformations, this powerful combat servant finally came into play.
It possessed ultra-high recovery ability and ultra-strong spiritual energy depth, able to fight long-term, like an endless killing machine.
The only drawback was it could only stay within the Dream Realm, or in the nearby 500-yard range.
But this was enough.
The locust-like monsters were the greatest threat the Dream Realm had encountered, blocking its movement and damaging its outer defense.
The Evil Ghost King, with its enormous body, could carve a bloody path through the monsters for the Dream Bubble, unafraid of pain, without fatigue, fighting endlessly.
The Evil Ghost King earned Rod’s respect with its powerful fists and robust body.
In most cases, Rod didn’t need to make a move, unless he encountered extraordinarily strong monsters.
When the Book of Knowledge detected monsters over thirteen-level spiritual energy approaching, Rod would act.
His spiritual energy, after successive surges, was unlike before.
Even a mere gesture could cause spatial disturbances, spiritual energy collapses.
Moreover, his new Star [Sin’s Touch], was far more useful than imagined.
As long as his fingers touched the enemy, the whip-like appendages of destruction would demolish its defenses and trigger spiritual energy oscillations.
It was so effective that some monsters would collapse their souls and self-destruct with just a touch from Rod.
It’s worth mentioning.
Whether it’s the Dream Realm, humanoid warrior, or Evil Ghost King, any monster they kill would have their soul captured.
This should be because they originally belonged to Dream Creation.
A Dream Creation’s kill equates naturally to his kill.
Thus, these days, the Dream Realm was filled with souls, with an abundance of soul-type resources.
Now he only lacked the King’s soul and Divinity, and nothing else.
Just like that, a few more days passed, the Dream Realm was finally nearing the edge of the Chaotic Sea.
And at this moment, Asa finally awoke after a long slumber.
"Hahahahaha!"
His first moments awake were filled with maniacal laughter.
"I am invincible, nothing can stop me from becoming the King of devouring excrement! Ahahahahaha!"
"Master, you wouldn’t know how much I gained from Amon’s evil thoughts!"
