A total of 180 divinity points.

Subtracting the 100 divinity points consumed by using [Great Spiritual Tide], Rhodes gained 80 divinity points in this battle.

The harvest is not bad.

The only thing that disappointed Rhodes was that the soul of the ancestor of the giant was not as powerful as imagined.

It only has 1 powerful source and 6 sources. It is thinner than the soul of Asdeth, the King of the Deep Sea, but it is still a "powerful king soul".

Maybe the key lies in those 10 "qi of destiny".

And the content about "Aura of Destiny" should be in the soul description of the giant's ancestor.

Rhodes immediately raised the dream protection in the Book of Knowledge.

But this time, the description of the soul of the ancestor of the giants did not change, it was still a confusing line of text.

The Book of Knowledge said in a solemn tone: "Master, the description of the soul of the ancestor of the giants involves very important secrets. The current protection level of the dream is not enough."

Rhodes asked in surprise: "Why? Didn't the dream become stronger?"

The Book of Knowledge said in a deep voice: "Master, our protection is much stronger than before, but this secret far exceeds the information in the soul of the strange shadow. It is a secret belonging to God, based on the level of power and position. Look, dreams have not yet reached the level of gods.”

Rhodes felt very unbelievable.

"Doesn't the information about Weird Shadow involve the Weird Ancestor and the Human Demon? Is it possible that the Giant Ancestor is stronger than them?"

"No, Master, the soul of Weird Shadow only stated their existence based on the process of its creation, and did not involve the roots of Weird Ancestor and Human Demon. And the soul of the Giant Ancestor probably contains these lost things. Extremely secret knowledge.”

Rhodes was slightly disappointed, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. On the contrary, he was slightly excited.

This information is so important and may be of great help to mankind in getting through this disaster.

As long as he finds more dream fragments, it won't be long before his true identity is revealed.

With this hope, Rhodes left the dreamland.

At this time, the pollution in Dalong City is falling apart, the black water is rapidly evaporating, the black mist is dispersing in all directions, and the decay formed over the years is slowly turning into ashes.

Rhodes looked at everything in front of him in surprise, he had never seen such a scene before:

"Book, does pollution purify itself automatically?"

The Book of Knowledge shook the page and denied: "Master, pollution will not purify automatically, but pollution that is too powerful will gradually dissipate after losing the support of the pollution source until it reaches the average level of the environment."

Rhodes suddenly realized that the shocking pollution in the depths of Dragon City was caused by the heads of the giant ancestors.

After it is eliminated, the accumulated pollution will naturally dissipate.

"Book."

He suddenly thought of something.

"If we remove all sources of pollution in the world, can the world return to its original state?"

The Book of Knowledge continued to decompose the soul on the altar of the soul while answering:
"Master, this is of course very possible, but the problem is that we simply can't do it. Those terrifying sources of pollution are all over the material world, the abyss, the spiritual world, the starry sky, and even the sea of ​​​​sources. We will never be able to remove them. Clear them all out.”

It paused, then continued.

"In fact, we don't have to do it. After I recovered my memory, I already knew the way to save the world and clear the black fog, which is to purify the high-level spiritual world. This is also the fundamental meaning of the existence of dreams."

Asa on the side suddenly turned around and asked in surprise: "Purify the high-level spiritual world? Why?"

The Book of Knowledge originally didn't want to talk to him, let alone tell him these secrets, but considering that he was actually a dream apostle now and couldn't escape the master's control, it didn't hurt to tell him.

"Because the spirit world is the center of the three worlds, and the high-level spirit world is the center of the spirit world, controlling the flow of energy in the entire universe. The spirit world, as long as we control the high-level spirit world, we can resist the starry sky at the top, and purify the lower planes below. If pollution is an infinite serpent with a tail, then the high-level spirit world is the most important part of it... as long as the Pry it from the chains of pollution, and we shall purify the world."

Asa was silent for a long time, and then suddenly said: "So this is what you were talking about last time you talked to the master without telling me."

The Book of Knowledge sneered: "What do you mean by hiding it from you? You can know such a secret?"

Asa's soul body swelled up, looking quite dissatisfied.

"Don't be too pushy. Master didn't hide it from me at all... I just didn't remember it for a moment. Also, there must be some errors in your memory. The real way to save the world is to kill the Supreme Will. He is the master of all darkness." As long as the ultimate source of fog is killed, the black fog will naturally weaken and slow down."

The pages of the Book of Knowledge turned quickly, like a strong wind blowing:

"It's impossible! An existence like Black Mist cannot be solved by killing a culprit. You are too naive. The Supreme Will is just a powerful ancient god. It is no different from the filthy Blood God. Killing He only eliminated a powerful source of pollution."

Asa sneered: "Adoris, you underestimate the Supreme Will. You can't enter my memory and don't know His greatness. I will prove it. Just wait."

After saying that, Asa returned to his usual position, sat down, and once again began to digest the essence in his body.

Rhodes glanced at it and found that Asa's spiritual power was not strong, not even level 10, but his soul was very special, and his status had vaguely exceeded the average king level.

I don’t know how strong his soul will be after becoming the King of Shit Devourers.

For some reason, Rhodes was suddenly looking forward to seeing how far Asa could go on this road that no one had ever taken before.

It shouldn't be... very weak, right?

-

About two hours later, the first team sent by Wangcheng arrived at Dalong City.

At this time, the pollution in Dalong City has returned to normal levels, and most of the threatening monsters have been eliminated by Rhodes, especially the armored giants, not a single one left.

They came to the deepest part of Dalong City with great reverence.

The moment they saw Rhodes, who had created this miracle, they all bowed and paid tribute to this human hero in the most sincere tone.

"May the black rice bucket be with the sun."

At this moment, Rhodes' mood was really mixed.

On the one hand, he is very happy that he can have the same status as the sun, but on the other hand, he is very depressed that the same status as the sun is a black bucket.

Don't you think this is awkward?

Maybe, I shouldn't wait for them to change the title consciously, I should take the initiative to change.

Rhodes thought.

When I return to the royal city, I will force Horus to change my title.

If he doesn't want to, I'll tell him why with my fists.

Humph.

Who said he hasn't stepped into the realm of true strength yet?

I have made such great achievements, so it shouldn’t be a problem if I beat the archbishop occasionally, right?

Yes, just do it.

Rhodes made up his mind in an instant.

It doesn’t have to be a real fight, as long as Horus realizes my tough attitude, he will definitely change it.

You don’t want to be beaten in vain, do you, Archbishop?
Haha!

-

The leader of this team is an old acquaintance, Night Breeze. They came here with only one mission, which was to take over the Great Dragon City and prevent it from being occupied by new monsters.

The Fire Keeper is a veteran fire priest who carries a level five guardian fire.

This is a guardian fire that has been strengthened to the extreme. Its specifications no longer allow it to become more powerful.

Unless it can break the rules and become the Holy Fire.

But this kind of thing only exists in legends. So far, no guardian fire has ever evolved into a holy fire.

There are essential differences between them.

In fact, many scholars in the royal city believe that the guardian fire is essentially the materialized projection of the holy fire, just like the relationship between the source law and the characteristics. The characteristics become the source law after being quantified, which essentially replaces the source law.

If the Guardian Fire wants to become the Holy Fire, it will definitely only replace the Holy Fire, but not increase the Holy Fire.

Otherwise, the Pope of St. Rael would not have told them that only by gathering all the holy fires and lighting the first fire can they resist the coming terrible disaster.

Of course, this is not something they can do now.

The human kingdoms in the Age of Fire were all on the distant main continent. They were once extremely powerful, and they would inevitably become extremely powerful monsters. The once prosperous human civilization would inevitably create extremely terrifying monster nests.

The king said that next to every sacred fire seed, there is a monster who was once named the king.

It may be the Queen of the Stars in the Star City, or it may be Pope O'Sullivan in the Royal City of Saint Rey.

Perhaps the more powerful king in the Age of Fire.

With Trorian's current power, he still can't covet them.

But many people believe that one day they will rekindle their first flame.

-

The fire-bearing soul weapon of Dalong City is at the bottom.

Judging from its position, the head of the giant ancestor is placed here.

It was a huge semicircular stone basin with a rough appearance and no patterns.

But the old fire priest could tell at a glance that this was a Horcrux of the highest standard. It was composed of a variety of precious elements and fused with at least three source materials. It was integrated with the entire Dalong City, just like a solid shell. , firmly guarding the fire within.

There were only ashes of the fire in the stone basin, not the kindling of the guardian fire. During this long time, it was unknown where it had been lost.

The fire priest carefully took out the lantern of fire, took out the guardian fire in the traveling state, and placed it in the center of the stone basin.

As the fire ceremony is held, the warm breath of fire sweeps in like a spring breeze, the air becomes brighter, and the evil, coldness and darkness are removed from the soul's perception.

Rhodes knew that this meant that the Guardian Fire had officially taken root in Dalong City.

This ancient city, which had been sunk in darkness for countless years, finally fell into the arms of mankind again, with the breath of fire.

It takes 7 days for the fire to take root. During these 7 days, the fire is relatively fragile and requires a lot of protection.

But this is no longer Rhodes' mission. The royal city will send more warriors to protect it.

At the same time, a large number of production personnel and logistics personnel will continue to pour into Dalong City, and various defense equipment will also be moved into Dalong City, transforming this giant city into a super fortress of mankind.It will soon face a decisive battle with the Blood God of Filth.

Rhodes is quite confident that the super fortress of Dalong City has this qualification. As long as the king's advent ceremony is completed, the guardian fire of Dalong City will be connected with the holy fire. At that time, the king's power can be projected to Dalong City. .

The fire incarnation of the true king will bring them infinite power, defeat the blood god of filth, and open this gate for the revival of mankind.

And Rhodes will also rely on the soul of the Blood God to reach another level and gain the qualification to face the real horror.

Of course, before that, in order to be sure, Rhodes must obtain enough divinity and a [God's Soul] in order to ignite the [God's Eye].

In addition, if possible, Rhodes should try his best to help Trollian's strong men improve.

He was deeply impressed by the power of the Blood God of Filth. This ancient god who had existed for tens of millions of years was definitely more powerful than the king who had just been promoted to true king. It would be difficult for the king to defeat him alone.

There must be enough king-level warriors, more Herrscher combat power, and various advantages stacked up to ensure their victory.

The premise of all this is that the king must be promoted successfully and become a true king and god of mankind.

Otherwise, it would be hard for Rhodes to defeat the blood god of filth with only a large number of kings.

At this moment, Rhodes suddenly realized a problem. The king's heart had been taken out again. Will his lack of life affect the success of the true king's promotion ceremony?
With this question in mind, Rhodes returned to the royal city as quickly as possible.

But the king was not in the holy fire sacrificial field.

The fire priest told him that the king and Percival went to the botanical garden, seemingly for the true king's ceremony.

Rhodes immediately rushed to the Botanical Garden. It is in the middle and rear of the upper city and is the most life-filled area of ​​Trolian. At the deepest part of the Botanical Garden is the Holy White Tree, which is called the miracle of life.

The True King Ceremony was held on the green grass under the holy white tree.

Along the way, Rhodes had unimpeded access, and all forbidden areas in the royal city were open to him. As soon as the guards saw him, they began to salute from a distance.

Soon, he saw the king.

A huge black and red ritual pattern was imprinted on the green grassland. He and Percival were standing on the edge of the extremely complex pattern.

"Little Rod, you are here."

Wang discovered him very early, and the moment he saw him, the corners of his mouth turned upward without realizing it.

"How's the situation in Dalong City? Lao Kesi is the most experienced fire priest, so there shouldn't be any problems."

Rhodes nodded: "It went very well. The fire has been lit and all monsters have been eliminated. The source of the pollution is the head of the giant ancestor. After killing it, all the pollution began to dissipate."

Percival was surprised: "The ancestor of the giants? The original giant king Ehaeus? Isn't he a god from the ancient era? His head is under the Great Dragon City?"

"Yes, there are also the corpses of the nine giant kings. They have no souls and are completely controlled by the heads of the ancestors of the giants."

Percival opened his eyes wide: "This... what happened in the battle of the Giant King's Court? Why did it happen? No, no, the head of the ancestor of the giants merged with the souls of all the giant kings. This is a creature that is infinitely close to the true king level. monster, you killed it by yourself?"

Rhodes nodded slightly: "Yes, I used my wisdom and skills to destroy it. However, this head is not that powerful. It is just a strong king-level monster."

"impossible!"

Percival said decisively.

"The twelve giant kings are all strong kings. The ancestor of the giants is an ancient god. He swallowed the remaining souls of nine giant kings. How can it be just a strong king? It should at least be a great king soul!"

Rhodes asked in surprise: "The great king soul?"

"Yes."

Percival said cautiously.

"The most accurate way to judge the strength of a monster is based on the strength of its soul. The great king soul is the soul of the strongest king-level monster, which is only one step away from the gods. According to my knowledge, the head of this giant is definitely the greatest. king."

Rhodes frowned, the display of the dream is absolutely impossible to make mistakes, the soul obtained by killing the head of the giant's ancestor is the "powerful king soul".

But Percival’s words also make sense.

Rhodes thought for a moment and then asked: "But, the King of the Deep Sea is not a strong king?"

Percival replied: "This may be because it has lost something, causing its soul to degenerate. For giants, the power of fate is the most important. They have been pursuing the power of fate throughout their lives. The most powerful A giant with the most powerful power of destiny."

Percival's words were like a thunderbolt that suddenly penetrated the fog in Rhode's heart.

He immediately remembered that the King of the Deep Sea once frantically pursued his Divine Sword of Destiny to the point of being desperate. Its strength far exceeded the king level that Rhodes had ever encountered, and was only a small distance away from the strong king level. difference.

Rhodes couldn't understand it before, but now he understands.

It was for this reason.

No wonder there is destiny in the soul of the ancestor of the giants, which must have been wrested from the king of giants.

The battle in the Giant Court is definitely related to the power of fate.

But why do giants crave the power of destiny so much?

Percival answered his question: "Legend has it that giants foretell their fate of destruction. If you want to change your fate, you need to seek more power of fate. The essence of this power is actually the most special source of fate. What they are seeking to seize are actually fragments belonging to the Law of Origin of Destiny."

"Shards?"

"Yes, the source law of destiny is one of the 107 original laws. It has been broken long ago, but the fragments have not re-condensed into the source, strong source, or fundamental source. Therefore, if you want to obtain the power of destiny, you can only swallow these fragments. "

Rhodes thought, could these fragments be the "Qi of Destiny"?
Each of the nine giant kings has one share, plus one share of the head, which is exactly 1 shares.

The more Rhodes thought about it, the more likely this inference became, and he couldn't help but ask.

"If I get this fragment, what will it be used for?"

Percival replied: "It can greatly change a person's fortune, making his luck extremely good, inspiration flowing, and everything going smoothly."

Rhodes was a little disappointed. He thought he could control the power of destiny and become the King of Destiny.

What's the use of just improving luck?

All my strength comes from my hard work and hard work, not luck.

waste.

Just as he was thinking about it, Percival suddenly asked: "Sir Rhodes, who are the nine giant kings below the Dragon City? Do you know?"

Rhodes thought for a moment and told him their names.

Pocival pondered: "In this case, plus the king of the deep sea Asdeth, among the twelve kings of giants, only Omir, the king of giants who built the king city, and Ultar, the giant of the dusk, are left. , Your Excellency Rhodes, you have to be careful of them, you have eliminated the plague of giants, and you have a certain connection with the giants, and you may encounter them in certain special environments."

Rhodes smiled and said: "Don't worry, the King of Giants is nothing. He is a weakling in front of me. If you encounter him, you will be killed by me."

Percival said urgently: "Sir Rhodes, don't be careless. The complete King of Giants is very powerful. The giants you encounter are all weak due to various reasons. If they are giants at their peak, No one is my rival except our King."

But Rhodes is not worried, as long as it is "except the king", he is not worried.

Later, Rhodes asked about his concerns.

Percival replied: "Of course it will have an impact. Your Majesty and I are adding new structures to the ceremony to offset this impact."

"Is it expensive?"

"It's big, it..."

Rhodes said flatly: "That's no need, I have a way."

He briefly introduced the functions and requirements of [Dragon Heart].

After listening, Percival was silent for a long time before letting out a long breath: "Sir Rhodes, I really can't use common sense to judge you. Of course, Your Majesty can't use common sense to judge you either. I have never seen someone who can dig out The king whose heart is made into the ultimate weapon, Trorian is truly a miraculous country.”

The king smiled and said: "We still have many miracles, you can discover them slowly, Percival."

He turned his head and his expression became serious.

"Little Rhodes, are you sure that your [Demon Dragon's Heart] has the effect you said?"

Rhodes nodded. There was never any exaggeration in the description of the dream, except for the word "enough".

"Provide enough XX and you can destroy the world" is the most exaggerated explanation of the dream, but strictly speaking, this is not a lie. Who said you don't have "enough"?

Therefore, [Demon Dragon Heart]’s ability to “rebuild the body, restore life, transcend all laws, and ignore all prohibitions” is worthy of trust.

It's a pity that it needs "the heart of the dragon king" or a hundred "hearts of an adult dragon". Now that the dragon is dead, where can he find it?

The Dragon King did hide one, but he didn't know where it was.

Wang said seriously: "Little Rod, if possible, I hope you can get two."

Rhodes was startled, then came to his senses: "Sun Knight?"

"Yes, Sun Knight Kai, the last person in the royal city with the power of the sun. Unfortunately, his power is too powerful, so powerful that his body and soul have collapsed. He has hunted too many monsters. His body and soul have been cursed by the black mist. The powerful power of the sun purifies his own soul, but it cannot save his body. If we can give him a new body and make him stand up, our chances of winning are It will improve a lot.”

Rhodes nodded slightly. He had long known that Sun Knight Kai was as powerful as Alan. Unfortunately, he was forced to lie underground in the royal city due to life problems. He did not get better after many treatments.

It seems that the only thing that can save him is [Demon Dragon Heart].

We must find a way to find the sealed heart of the Dragon King.

Rhodes clenched his fists.

Before leaving, Rhodes asked about the progress of the True King Ceremony.

Percival told him that everything is going well at present, and the supply of soul residues and soul traits is sufficient, but there is still a lack of some rare materials, and it is not known whether they can be completed before the end of this month.

Rhodes nodded and took Percival's words to heart.

Immediately, he turned around and set off.

Next, he was ready to participate in expansion wars in various places.

There are still 13 days left for the portal.

These 13 portals are enough for him to sweep most of the expansion area.

Maybe, on the way to expansion, he can find these materials and even discover the hidden place of the Dragon King's heart?
Rhodes had already made up his mind that he wanted to try the effect of the "Qi of Destiny".

Maybe it actually works.

At the same time, he couldn't be too happy. Evil thoughts were still lurking on the side, the dreamland was about to enter a new area, and the invasion of the black fog demon was about to come.

If you are not careful, you will fall to pieces.

But no matter what, the sun has risen for mankind, and their future is no longer lifeless, but has infinite possibilities.
