The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1477 - 709: True King Ascension
Rod, in his shock, didn’t even notice why there was divinity.
And Bossivale was so anxious he didn’t know what to say:
"King, even if there is a True King Ascension Ceremony, the ascension carries great risks. A True King is a god of humans, and the divine ascension ceremony has always been extraordinarily risky since ancient times."
He paused for a moment and continued.
"Unlike the quantification of the Source and the upgrade of the Strong Source, seizing control of the Root Origin would make the entire Sea of Source hostile towards you. Moreover, there is also corrosion in the Sea of Source now; the Black Fog harbors great malice towards all living beings. I believe that the soul of an Orderer would be heavily targeted in the struggle for the Root Origin. This is why I insist on using the most complete True King Ceremony. Without thorough preparation, we will fail, and humanity cannot endure such failure now."
Horus also realized the severity of the situation.
"King, don’t worry, we still have time. Olivia and Alan are still on the land of Saint Reel, restraining the breath of the Blood God. At the outpost on the Sword Edge Mountain Range, apart from a few Flesh Puppets, no unusual movements have been observed. Even in the worst-case scenario, it would take at least another full month for the Breath of the Blood God to spread outside the Great Dragon City."
A full month refers to a period longer than six weeks.
Ever since the completion of the Source Prophecy, monthly periods have been gradually lengthening. After the destruction of Saint Reel, this became particularly evident.
Previously, the shortest month was three weeks, but now there are no longer any months shorter than six weeks. This month has already lasted eight weeks, and the White Tower has not yet observed the return of the Moon’s trajectory.
If by the beginning of next week, the month has not overflowed, it means that this month has broken the longest record in thousands of years, becoming the longest month on record.
Everyone was very surprised by this news.
"Do we really have so much time?"
"Why is the Blood God so slow?"
Horus said in a deep voice: "This is thanks to Olivia and Alan. During their long-term operations on the land of Saint Reel, they discovered a very special pattern in the land tainted by the Breath of the Blood God. If someone enters it with a Spiritual Power Level below that of a Commander, the Blood God will not be triggered, and only flesh monsters will come to attack them. As long as the flesh monsters are continuously killed, the Breath of the Blood God will stop spreading. At that point, they can escape, and the Breath will chase in their direction. As long as they don’t stray too far, they can continuously delay its spread towards Trolian."
He paused, his tone growing heavier.
"Of course, doing so is extremely dangerous. As time goes on, the number of flesh monsters attacking them will increase, and they will become stronger and stronger. Eventually, all the flesh monsters on the land will swarm in. If they reveal more than a Level 14 Spiritual Power or the power of a Source Law, they will face direct assault from the Blood God."
"Despite these difficulties, Alan managed to do it. His Fire Spark is unrestricted, his combat ability is unparalleled, and with Olivia’s external support, the Breath of the Blood God has not moved an inch outward in the past two weeks."
In the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, smiles appeared on everyone’s faces.
Undoubtedly, this was extremely good news.
Trolian is growing rapidly, with every bit of accumulated strength bursting forth every second. The later the Blood God arrives, the better their odds of victory.
Horus shifted the conversation, then said: "King, so you don’t have to rush. You can perform the True King Ascension Ceremony with one-hundred percent certainty once fully prepared."
At this moment, even the always proactive Rod agreed with him.
Yet the King merely smiled softly and said, "No, I stand by my decision."
The Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground fell silent.
People glanced at each other, not understanding why.
The King stood up from the throne and walked up to them.
Golden flames burned in his eyes, and an immense spiritual energy rose within him, a power vast as an endless ocean, drowning out all the spiritual energy waves present.
In the Dream Realm, the Book of Knowledge exclaimed, "What a powerful spiritual energy. Trolian’s King is truly a unique existence."
Asa fell into thought, "What kind of man is the King, to possess such powerful strength? This Spiritual Power Strength is not just Level 17; it must be at the extreme of Level 17... Fortunately, I did not try to maneuver against the King with that fool using the Book of Destiny earlier, or else I might have been obliterated immediately."
The puppet stood beside the Obelisk, and the scene reflected in the eyes of the Rod’s soul burned within its gaze. It looked intently, without saying a word.
The Book of the Future felt a wave of fear: "Did I really try to predict this thing’s future? Am I tired of living?"
In the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, the impact on Rod was even greater. That overwhelming spiritual energy was closely linked with the King’s soul—it was surely his Absolute Spiritual Power, without any enhancement.
It should be known that enhanced relative spiritual energy can only be used as a temporary power, as it is only indirectly controlled by the soul. Its strength is weaker than Absolute Spiritual Power, which is why enhanced spiritual energy is the weakest form. Strong spiritual energy and Primordial Spirit Power cannot be enhanced, because the strength of the soul determines how much spiritual energy it can control.
