CHAPTER 1219: CHAPTER 616: THE NEW HUMAN KINGDOM

Asa’s expression was peculiar.

"The Supreme Will gives me the feeling of being distant, vague, untouchably great, untouchably majestic, and incomprehensibly terrifying. Although this spirit is also incomprehensible, there is a great difference between them."

Rod sighed: "Alright, it seems that only when the dreamscape becomes stronger and we sacrifice it, can we determine its origin."

This matter was set aside for now; he had too much to do, and tracing the origin of a chaotic spirit was not the highest priority.

Although this spirit was very strong, in this world shrouded by black fog, there were too many unknown and powerful beings.

Then Rod sacrificed the souls of all the prison demons.

This time the sacrifice went smoothly, without any obstacles. The souls of more than 50,000 small prison demons totaled around 5 billion souls, about 500,000 spirituality, and a certain amount of soul attribute blocks and soul residue.

The 11 great prison demons sacrificed about 2.2 billion souls and 220,000 spirituality.

The harvest from the great prison demon surprised Rod.

It sacrificed 9 billion souls, 900,000 spirituality, 10 pieces of nightmare fuel, a large number of soul attribute blocks and soul residue, and a special item called "Prison Spirit."

"Prison Spirit": It reveals all seals or barriers in the nearby regions.

Rod was astounded.

The great prison demon was merely an "extremely great soul," yet it contributed at the level of a king soul.

Such a bountiful harvest, he never imagined.

It seems that the great prison demon also possesses an incredibly strong soul, far surpassing monsters of the same rank, but without a strong source, it couldn’t advance to king level.

No wonder it was so resilient, taking two spirit realm strikes to penetrate it.

Rod looked at the resources stored within the obelisk and couldn’t help but smile.

His mood, darkened by the exhaustion of divinity, improved significantly.

Now, there was no worry about the souls needed to repair the dreamscape.

"Book, where should we go next?"

The Book of Knowledge flipped its pages: "We must quickly leave the Ice Prison; the disturbances we caused here are too great, and it won’t diminish, only increase. Leaving the dreamscape here is too dangerous. If it alerted the primordial ancient ones or genuine ancient gods, it would be troublesome."

Rod frowned: "What are the primordial ancient ones?"

"The oldest, the master of the root origin, the ancient rulers of old days, the most terrifying and powerful of all ancient rulers. They are god-like, even surpassing gods. In that distant epoch, they once ruled the entire world, hence called the ancient rulers."

The Book of Knowledge paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, they have no resistance against the black fog, and their corruption and downfall happened very quickly. In a short time, all ancient rulers disappeared completely."

Asa suddenly interjected: "Master, from what I know, the older and more powerful the ancient ruler, the faster it falls. They are almost completely corrupted by the black fog in a very short time, while the younger ancient rulers usually get corrupted amid intense resistance and self-destruction, and the resulting monsters are generally far weaker than they were before, so the disparities among ancient rulers are vast. Those oldest ancient rulers are the true complete forms of the ancient ones."

Rod asked in surprise: "Why is this? Couldn’t the root origin and spiritual energy they controlled help them resist the black fog?"

Asa let out a cold chuckle.

"That I do not know. This memory comes from Amon. They seemed to want to plot to bring the most ancient ancient ruler of primordial to attack Trolian, to create a disaster, but it seems due to your appearance they abandoned this plan."

Rod scratched his head and asked again: "Could the Supreme Will be one of the primordial ancient ones?"

"Perhaps, it’s possible."

Asa replied casually.

"Maybe the initial black fog was born because of them, and perhaps among the primordial ancient ones lies some secret about the world. But I still hold the view, to find the Supreme Will, to kill Him, to seize His power, to take His authority, the master will inevitably end everything and become the supreme master."

Rod nodded, noting Asa’s words as a possibility in his mind.

Maybe in the future, he might find common ground with the Book of Knowledge and Source Prophecy.

Asa respectfully bowed: "May you one day rule the world, and your loyal servant shall guard your sewers."

Rod glanced at him speechlessly, as the latter contentedly lay back down at the foot of the obelisk. He still had some residual evil thoughts and essence to digest, and the path to devour the Great King of Feces was not yet stable, requiring further solidification and stability.

"Alright... future matters can wait till the future, but this fellow after all is useful for now."

The Book of Knowledge, unwilling to mention this filthy guy, directly changed the subject.

"Master, we must quickly change direction, the area closest to us is the demonic wilderness, that will be our next stop."

Demonic wilderness?

Yet another area he had never heard of.

The higher spiritual realm was so vast, with so many areas unexplored.

"Book."

Rod asked.

"When will we begin the purification of the higher spiritual realm?"

"After retrieving all the fragments." the Book of Knowledge answered: "Once the complete dreamscape returns, our battle with the spirit realm will begin."

Just by looking at that decayed and bizarre city, it was clear this was not something that could be accomplished in a short time.
