Chapter 1807: Chapter 827: Passing the Torch (Part 3)

And there was also Rod.

"From now on, I’ll use a portion of my power to flicker within the Spirit Mist and create tiny Spirit Pulses. Prophetic City must be watching me, must be watching Trolian. In that case, there’s a high chance they’ll notice these shining Spirit Pulses. I’ll flicker the pulses at a fixed frequency; in Saint Longde, this pattern means an emergency, an urgent need for rescue and Healing. When we were trapped in the Black Domain, we often used this method to transmit information. The efficiency is very low and highly unstable, but nothing can block it—not even the earliest Black Fog."

Rhein raised his right hand, and with a tap of his fingertip, Rod immediately felt that at least more than sixty million kilo-ticks of Spiritual Energy had sunk into the Void, vanishing into the unseen.

He knew that this Spiritual Energy had been injected into the Spirit Mist permeating the Three Realms.

That was the lowermost layer of the Spirit Realm, located at the boundary between the Spirit Realm and the Sea of Source. It was said to be the origin from which all Spirits were born, tightly bound to fate; no living being could be separated from it. It was also the source of all Inspiration, perception, and Intuition.

"All right."

Rhein lowered his hand.

"The Spirit Pulse has already flared. If Saint Longde can detect it, they will increase the size of the support team and dispatch higher-ranking Healers. If the Soul Taker Casemiro has returned to Saint Longde ahead of schedule, he will definitely join the support team. If that happens, everything will be fine."

Upon hearing his words, a trace of hope rose in everyone’s hearts. If the King could recover, that would undoubtedly be the best outcome; Trolian would usher in an unprecedented era of two Kings.

"Soul Taker Casemiro..." Luo Weiya asked excitedly, "Is he very Strong?"

Rhein nodded slightly. "Very Strong. In Saint Longde, there is a saying—before Casemiro, there are no dead. His Healing methods are unparalleled. His Soul-stealing Scythe can even hook back Souls that have already dispersed. That is why he bears the title of ’Soul Taker’. However, three years ago he went to Yanuo to help them treat the wounded from the Fallen Ark. By the dates, he should be returning around this period."

A glimmer of hope flashed in Qingyu’s eyes, but for some reason, Rod sensed that her mood was low.

Had some accident occurred?

A slight doubt rose in Rod’s heart, but he did not immediately ask.

Aside from Qingyu, everyone in Trolian was filled with joy. Qingyu had miraculously completed seven rounds of the High Rank Ascension Ceremony, and the King now had a hope of recovery. All these signs indicated that Trolian was shifting in a favorable direction. As long as they continued like this, their resurgence would only be a matter of time.

Rhein thought so as well. The rekindling of fire and the restoration of human glory was the deepest dream in everyone’s heart. He was no exception—if anything, he was even more fervent, wishing he could immediately complete the High Rank Ascension Ceremonies for everyone in Trolian in one sweep.

Many people shared his thoughts, wanting to press the advantage and push everyone to their limits in one go.

However, Qingyu’s seven rounds of High Rank Ascension Ceremony had consumed an enormous amount of resources. The Soul Elements they had stockpiled, plus the supplies brought by Saint Longde, had all been nearly exhausted.

Rod did the math and knew that over the seven rounds of ceremonies, they had in total used 254 units of Light Stone, Moon Spirit Gems, Pure Star Source, Pure Star Marrow, and Divine Stones.

Especially the Divine Stones—only one remained. If Saint Longde hadn’t brought many Divine Stones, they wouldn’t even have been able to complete all seven High Rank Ascension Ceremonies.

Aside from the Divine Stones, the Moon Spirit Gems were also nearly depleted. Trolian had no way to manufacture them, and the Moon Spirit Gems brought by Saint Longde were not enough. To complete these seven rounds of Ascension Ceremonies, everyone dismantled all of the "Divine Blood and flesh."

Rhein had provided the method to dismantle the "Divine Blood and flesh." He clicked his tongue in amazement at this method of preserving Soul Elements. Although Saint Longde possessed no such technology, he was well-traveled; after a detailed examination, he quickly discovered the methods for synthesizing and dismantling "Divine Blood and flesh."

It had to be said, this was yet another rare gain. In this exchange of civilizations, not only had Trolian obtained a great deal, Saint Longde had also gained no small benefit.

Now, the High Rank Ascension Ceremonies could no longer proceed. Divine Stones could not be manufactured; the only way to obtain them was to collect Relics of the Fire Epoch.

And "Moon Spirit Gems" were the hardest to condense among all Soul Elements. They required the construction of an extremely tall Moon Tower, and only under a Full Moon at perigee could this precious Moon Essence be condensed.

However, Rhein told everyone that as long as Olivia and Dark Moon further mastered the power of the "Moon Spirit," they too could manufacture "Moon Spirit Gems" under relatively relaxed conditions.

But the prerequisite for further mastering the power of the "Moon Spirit" was that they themselves needed to advance further, and with the two of them already possessing five portions of Root Origin, the fastest way for them to improve was still the Ascension Ceremony.

After going in a full circle, they had returned to the starting point.

All they could do was wait for the aid from Saint Longde to arrive. If Rhein could bring so many supplies even on such an emergency support mission, how much more could a formal support team carry?

Everyone’s hearts were filled with anticipation.

For now, what they could do was to enhance, as much as possible, the power of warriors below the Monarch Level. Although without Divine Stones, even Low Rank Ascension Ceremonies could not be held, Star Source Potions, Light Stone Suspension, and Star Marrow Potions could all be manufactured. These top-tier Soul Element Potions could greatly increase the strength of warriors below the Monarch Level and were also effective on experts below Strong Monarch level.
