Chapter 1068: Chapter 551: Abyss and Ancient Dragon (Part 1)
The ugly monster stumbled, and its paralyzed body unexpectedly fell down. Meanwhile, Rod and Kashan had already reached around the monster, front and back.
Kashan took a deep breath, red energy erupted, enveloping her fist, and she delivered a heavy punch right to the monster’s back.
At the same time, Rod wrapped the star line around his fist, shouted loudly, and a Flower of Humanity melted into his soul.
Divine Strike.
The perfect melee technique combined with absolute power explosion made this gleaming fist full of might, directly hitting the monster’s chest.
Boom!
With a loud bang, Rod and Kashan’s fists simultaneously impacted the Child of the Demon. The explosion of Divine Strike and Power of Fury gave the Child of the Demon an unprecedented super massage.
Under the extreme frontal and rear power onslaught, the Child of the Demon was flattened like a meat patty, and its bent back of thousands of years straightened instantly.
Its Spiritual Defense shattered into pieces, its soul having a huge hole punched through.
The hole was so large that when Rod reached in with his right hand, he didn’t even feel anything, unsure if the monster was killed by him; the Child of the Demon’s soul merely disintegrated, its body collapsing on the ground like a lump of rotten meat, with black dust swiftly risen.
A black aura merged into the chest, where a line of white text appeared from the bottom of the eye.
[Soul of Six-eyed Child of the Demon]
Not bad!
Rod was joyful, feeling this efficiency was pretty good.
"Keep fighting!"
Rod shouted loudly.
[Truth] could be used after being ignited by the Flower of Humanity, until it cooled down.
He also couldn’t use it indiscriminately. Each Divine Strike extended the cooling time of [Truth], until the next ignition after completely cooling down.
The Flower of Humanity was precious, and must be used effectively each time.
He needed to hurry.
"Over there, seven o’clock direction, Eight-eyed Child of the Demon! Mephit, freeze first, Anna, two spears!"
Accompanied by two Spirit Spears, Rod and Kashan’s heavy punches gave the Eight-eyed Child of the Demon a small shock.
Although it didn’t die immediately, the heavily injured demon child was affected by the cold ice, moving slower than a three-year-old; Kashan knocked it down with a normal punch, and Rod followed up with a reach, ending the battle.
[Soul of Eight-eyed Child of the Demon]
"Great!"
Rod instantly was overjoyed.
This was a Third Tier monster, one considered a top threat within Trolian, and Rod personally had to expend quite a bit of effort.
But under the battle group’s assault, it got killed easily.
They almost paid no price; Kashan could punch several hundred normal punches a day.
And now Anna could transform and possess thirty-five Spirit Spears at once, with one generating in her quiver every fifteen seconds.
This level of combat intensity, they could fight for a day.
However, the fight soon became tougher, as the Ten-eyed Child of the Demon proved much harder to deal with.
Due to the Eye of the Soul’s presence, this monster adept at ambushing was always sneak attacked by Rod. This advantage of initial hand exchange was significant, but the Spiritual Power Strength of the Ten-eyed Child had already surpassed the Fourteenth Level.
Relying on its ultra-strong spiritual power, Ten-eyed Child of the Demon usually survived for about a quarter of an hour.
Mephit’s cold ice played a decisive role at this time, freezing the Child of the Demon so that it couldn’t sustain itself, resembling an eighty or ninety-year-old lady.
Seriously, if not for its grotesquely twisted face and ten pairs of glowing red eyes, based on its hunchback and the long hair covering its back and head, along with its slim limbs, it really resembled an old lady.
Anna’s spears made this lady seem to have Parkinson’s, getting pummeled by Kashan’s Fury Fist and Rod’s Diamond Star Fist.
Finally perished under Rod’s Death’s Reach.
[Spiritual Energy of Ten-eyed Child of the Demon]
This was a visibly strong soul, and Rod immediately realized offering it as a sacrifice would surely yield much resources.
Rod’s smile gradually brightened.
This was the right efficiency.
Fighting like this for a day, at least hundreds of souls would be acquired.
Though the battle slowed down, the efficiency didn’t decrease.
It had to be said that the biggest credit for Rod’s success at fighting like this was the "Eye of the Soul."
Without the Eye of the Soul, they would be subject to endless attacks, with the Child of the Demon launching strikes from unexpected directions, even worse, they would multiply as they fought, eventually getting surrounded.
Now, they could spot the hidden ones from afar, with Anna’s guaranteed spear shots, forcing them into direct confrontation.
Not only turned the tables on ambushes, but also could accurately segregate and eliminate the monsters bit by bit.
Anna praised: "This is going smoothly, worthy of you, leader sir." She said teasingly.
Rod glanced at her: "Can you call me brother?"
Anna snorted: "Stop bragging, you’re younger than me."
Rod snorted.
"The strong come first, I’m stronger, also your leader, you should call me brother."
Anna’s face slightly reddened: "Go die, I’m not calling you that!"
Rod said in displeasure: "I’m giving you a way out, call me brother now, if not, then later you can only call me..."
Boom!
A loud bang interrupted Rod’s words.
Immediately, the ground began to shake, like a drum skin being hammered, Rod quickly steadied himself, and looked towards the direction of the tremor.
Under the Eye of the Soul’s gaze, he saw endless black fog gathering from all directions towards Ash Lake.
A terrifying spiritual power wave spread from the center of the lake to all directions.
"Fifteenth Level spiritual power wave."
Rod said solemnly.
"Is the Ancient Dragon King awakening?"
Kashan was somewhat horrified: "Has the King Level monster awoken? Why did it awaken? Wasn’t it in a dormant state?"
No one could answer these questions.
Even without the Eye of the Soul, everyone could see a huge black silhouette rising in the distance, seemingly roaring at the sky, an even more astonishing spiritual tsunami howled towards them.
"Is this the Ancient Dragon King?"
Rod was amazed, it seemed stronger than any monster except the Black Fog Demon.
Even more unbelievable was its soul ripple.
Rod sharply noticed the soul ripple had a bizarre echo pattern, as if it had two sources.
This was unprecedented, could it be the Ancient Dragon King had two souls?
Of course, that’s absolutely impossible.
Rod contemplated for a long time, finally coming up with the only explanation—
The Ancient Dragon King has two different strong sources.
Rod’s heart pounded wildly in an instant.
If they could kill the Ancient Dragon King, he would have three strong sources!
Nothing could be better.
Rod clenched his fists.
Let the king-slaying battle be my beginning.

But things didn’t unfold as Rod imagined.
The Ancient Dragon King didn’t leave Ash Lake, nor did it begin a battle, it merely stayed in the center of Ash Lake, motionless.
Moreover, no monsters were encountered for a duration after that.
The Child of the Demon seemed to vanish, not one could be found.
"What’s going on? Where did all the monsters go?"
The situation grew increasingly odd until Rod discovered some monsters moving towards the center of Ash Lake.
"Aren’t they afraid of the Ancient Dragon King?"
Rod was about to give chase when suddenly, a great sense of danger arose from his heart.
