The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1596 - 754: Ascending to True King (Part 1)

The Book of Knowledge slowly turned its pages and mused, "Master, you make a lot of sense, but I always feel that things are not that simple, and..."

It hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"I remember, in the Star of Giant God Power, Giant King Omir became one of the twelve Giant Kings for ascending to a True King. This means, at that time, they already found the path to the True King, but in the end, they still failed, and we don’t seem to have seen any trace of fire’s existence."

Rod furrowed his brows immediately. For a moment earlier, he felt that his inference was the truth, but now it seemed there might be some hidden truth.

"Maybe there’s something we don’t know about this..."

The Book of Knowledge said, "Master, your speculation may be very close to the real truth, just missing some key elements. But no matter what, we are getting closer to the real truth. Perhaps one day, all these secrets will come to light."

Rod smiled, "Yes, that day will come, I’m sure it is not far away."

He cast one more glance at these messages, especially remembering the two locations "Godoyin Sacred Mountain" and "Dark Taboo Place" as this wasn’t the first time he encountered them, and perhaps he would come across them again in the future.

"Then..."

Rod turned his gaze to the Book of Knowledge, which understood at once.

"Yes, Master, it’s time to ignite the Giant Star [Sacrifice]."

"Our accumulation should now erupt!"

Rod smiled a bit, watching the Book of Knowledge strip away the strong source and nightmare fuel from within the soul.

The two divine souls were soon ready.

With the addition of the Blood God’s soul, the three divine souls needed for the [Sacrifice] were complete.

Currently, there are six Root Origins in the Dream Realm, but igniting the [Sacrifice] requires nine, leaving three still needed.

However, after such a long accumulation, the Obelisk already held 26 strong sources and 141 sources, more than enough.

Rod immediately began the Source Ascension.

He first used the Obelisk’s unique Source Ascension, requiring only 10 strong sources combined with 1 Colorful Dream to complete the ascension.

However, this was Rod’s second use, thus requiring 10 strong sources and 2 Colorful Dreams.

"This is the special Source Law of the Obelisk."

The Book of Knowledge explained.

"Each ascension can only be used once and resets every thousand years, otherwise it requires 25 strong sources to complete."

Rod nodded. He had witnessed the Source Ascension in the True King Ceremony and knew this was quite an extraordinary thing. That the Dream Realm could achieve this level was already unimaginable.

He immediately invested 10 strong sources and 2 Colorful Dreams, and the Obelisk burst forth with an unusual light, the surrounding scene began to warp, a peculiar aura rushed over, and Rod felt his heart throb violently, akin to the rhythm of the source resonating within it.

In just a few seconds, a powerful Root Origin appeared within the Obelisk, completing the Source Ascension.

Compared to the commotion in the True King Ceremony, this was negligible.

Rod looked up; the third special Source Ascension would require 10 strong sources and 3 Colorful Dreams.

Fortunately, there was still plenty of nightmare fuel in the Dream Realm, so Rod crafted 3 more Colorful Dreams, and placed them with the strong sources into the Obelisk,

Very soon, another Root Origin completed its ascension.

Finally, Rod placed 100 sources into the Obelisk, along with 4 Colorful Dreams, accomplishing the last Root Origin ascension.

Thus, all 9 Root Origins were fully prepared.

What remained were 900 Soul Firewoods and 900 Soul Flowers, the latter simply required sacrificing souls, and there were countless souls in the Dream Realm, more than sufficient.

The former equated to 9000 Divinities, and the other materials were negligible to Rod at this stage.

Soon, everything needed to ignite the [Sacrifice] was ready.

Rod would ignite the most potent star, and the Book of Knowledge believed it would enable the master to step towards becoming a True King.

Soon, Trolian would have two True Kings, and Rod would step into the pinnacle realm of human strength.

Rod clenched his fist, suppressing the excitement within, just as he was about to enter the Soul Wilderness, the Book of Knowledge stopped him, handing over a piece of black-red coagulated blood.

This was a source material obtained from the soul of the God of Contaminated Blood and was also the source material for the [Sacrifice].

This led the Book of Knowledge to change the plan, wanting the master to ignite the [Sacrifice] first.

"This is..." Rod asked in confusion.

"Master, placing it inside will instantly complete the quantification,"
