Different from the original scene in the Soul Wasteland, this flame was suspended in the void, in the shape of a ring, with the flame tips radiating in all directions.
The center is hollow, like a collapsed sun, with only the outermost layer remaining and the interior already empty.
Is this the true form of the Dark Devourer?
Rhodes felt chills in his heart. The sight in front of him was so weird that it gave him a creepy feeling.
But the stone in his hand reminded him that he must move forward.
Rhodes took a deep breath and slowly floated towards the dark red ring of fire.
The closer you get, the more weird you find it. The hollow in the middle looks like a black sun from some angles, and like a black hole that preys on people from other angles.
Fear rushed over him, but Rhodes did not hesitate for a moment, and he quickly got close to the dark red flames.
It looked much larger and more turbulent than what we had seen before.
The fire almost licked his face, but there was no burning or discomfort.
Rhodes stretched out his hand and threw the stone in his palm into the ring of fire.
The dark red fire engulfed it instantly, and everything returned to calm.
Rhodes waited for a long time, but nothing changed.
"What's going on? There's something I didn't do right..."
boom!
Suddenly, dark red fire burned violently, spewing out in all directions crazily.
In the dark void, countless dark red light spots suddenly lit up.
They quickly connected together, illuminating this bottomless world.
In the night sky of the dreamland, the dark red star burned violently, and the strong red light flooded the night sky of the dreamland and the dreamland itself.
The dream bubbles flying in the spiritual world also turned dark red.
Red light radiated from the bubble, even dyeing the spiritual space red, leaving a long red trail behind it.
At this moment, Rhodes was engulfed in dark red fire, and his eyes were not only dark red, but also dark red, as if soaked in blood.
Although the flames were fierce, when they hit him, they were like a breeze blowing across his face, gently caressing his side without causing any harm.
Rhodes was drowned in this world of flames and didn't know where to go.
But soon, he saw a dark red core, which was extremely clear even in the burning flames.
Instinct drove Rhodes to walk towards the core. The moment he touched it, red light shone in front of his eyes and the world turned upside down.
When Rhodes came back to his senses, he had returned to the dreamland and was standing there, looking up, as if everything he had just experienced was just a dream.
But this is no dream!
Rhodes clearly saw that in the night sky of the dreamland, the dark red star was burning fiercely, and the red light faded like a tide and was retracted into the star.
A new piece of information appeared in my mind.
【Dark Devourer】
[Status: Origin]
[Position: Sea of Origin]
[Star Energy: Devoured by Darkness]
[Strength: 30000000]
[Source: 6]
[Description: The illusion in the dream, the supreme ideal, the wings rising sharply when falling, the only edge left on the sword. She was born from the noblest ideals of mankind and died from the dirtiest desires of mankind. 】
[Star Soul: You need at least level 14 spiritual power to support the star soul of the star. 】
——
——
30 million strength!
Rhodes couldn't believe his eyes!
The Dark Devourer turns out to be so powerful, much more powerful than my current total psychic power!
No wonder Hegeor would divide it before his death. If it was contaminated, the consequences would be disastrous.
It's a pity that I didn't directly obtain this power, otherwise I wouldn't have experienced so many twists and turns!
No wonder my growth is so much slower than other dream masters. The Book of Knowledge always dislikes me for being weak!
However, when Rhodes' gaze moved downward, his ecstasy was suddenly suppressed by these last words.
"The star soul can't return? Does it require level 14 spiritual power?"
Rhodes' heart suddenly sank and he turned his attention to the Book of Knowledge.
The latter also looked very shocked, obviously he had just learned this.
"Owner."
The Book of Knowledge turned over the pages and said thoughtfully.
"I seem to understand the reason."
Rhodes gritted his teeth and asked, "What's going on? I'm just waiting for the stars in their complete form!"
The Book of Knowledge explained: "Master, the star soul may be related to the complete state of this star."
"Generally speaking, level 14 psychic energy is the basis for mastering the law of origin."
"It is impossible for souls with lower than fourteenth level of spiritual power to control the source law."
"The Dark Devourer has already been quantified, but haven't you always been considered the Herrscher?"
"Not only it, we also have many stars that have been quantified, but your soul has never shown the state of the Herrscher, and there is no evidence that you control the source."
"I originally thought this was a special phenomenon related to dreams, but now it seems that it is not normal."
"The Dark Devourer is still in an incomplete state. Its source only exists in dreams. You can use its abilities, but this is with the power of dreams, not your own soul."
"This small difference may greatly reduce the effectiveness of the star. You can only use it, just like a weapon with a fixed shape. It can only follow a specific trajectory, otherwise it will not be able to exert its power."
"But after obtaining its star soul, you completely control the star and its origin."
“I can’t describe the specific difference, but it’s definitely a huge improvement.”
Rhodes suddenly realized, no wonder the Star Soul needs level 14 spiritual energy to support it. He is really going to become a Herrscher!
Not only that, but many stars have also achieved quantification.
If he retrieves the dream fragments in the ice prison, his star souls will return to their places one by one.
Then doesn’t he control multiple source laws?
If the star soul of the big star is retrieved, wouldn't he directly step into the "king level"?
Once the logic is clarified, all the problems will be solved at once.
Rhodes clenched his fists.
You must quickly upgrade to level 14 psychic power!
Fortunately, the Dark Devourer did not let him down, and the intensity of the loss directly increased from 6000 to 30 million.
It is worthy of being the core star of the dreamland, the power inherited by the masters of the dreamland throughout the ages!
Rhodes looked up and saw that his soul strength had increased from 19982000 to 49976000, which was more than doubled!
Powerful power continued to pour out of Li Soul, and an unrivaled feeling emerged from the bottom of his heart.
His psychic power is increasing rapidly!
Rhodes remembered that the bald master said that with his near-perfect psychic state, he only needed more than 130,000 psychic powers to be promoted to level fourteen.
According to calculations, he should now be close to 100,000 psychic powers, and he is only a little over 30,000 away from being promoted.
It should be enough to light up the next big star!
The Book of Knowledge obviously thought so, and shouted: "Master, [Song of Life]"
Rhodes immediately remembered the requirements for igniting it: two king souls, two powerful sources, 18 sources, 76 soul firewood and 7.6 billion soulless souls.
Not much worse!
As long as one more king-level monster can be killed, the demand is basically met!
The main problem now is, 76 pieces of soul fuel!
One piece of soul firewood requires 10 points of divinity, 76 pieces requires 760 points, and there are only 150 points left in the obelisk.
That said, we have to wait until the next time the stars shine.
Rhodes' heart sank, but he did not feel discouraged.
The stars shine on average once every 120 to 180 days, and it has been a long time since the last time the stars shined.
You shouldn't have to wait too long.
The key is the king's soul.
King-level monsters are not that easy to kill.
Among the king's souls that Rhodes has obtained through killing, the Ancient Dragon King is a corrupted puppet, a bait to lure the enemy, and has no combat power at all.
He also relied on divinity to barely snatch its soul.
The soul of Asdeth, the King of the Deep Sea, was obtained through the Queen of Stars.
Where should he kill the next king-level monster? After losing the help of the Queen of Stars, how can he plunder its soul?
Rhodes was lost in thought, not only him, but also the Book of Knowledge.
I don’t know how long it took, but the doll suddenly spoke.
"Master, maybe you can ask the Book of the Future."
"Book of the Future?"
"Yeah, it might answer your question to some extent."
Rhodes called the Book of the Future with full of doubts.
"Tell me, where can I get the king's soul in the future?"
The Book of the Future flipped through the book tremblingly for a long time, and replied in a trembling voice: "I, I only saw a large group of vague shadows. Those should be the shadows of giants. They wear crowns and are full of hostility. The soul of the owner is Taken from them!”
Rhodes took a long breath and asked: "Then where should I find the giant's soul?"
The Book of the Future trembled: "The clue, the clue is, in that soul!"
Rhodes followed its line of sight and said with a smile, "I know!"
Turn around and come to the soul altar.
Looking up, the soul of the King of the Deep Sea is rolling in the crystal wall. It is slightly dark green, like a large mess of seaweed.
This time, Rhodes noticed the description below the soul that he had never looked at before.
Is this guy really a member of the giant clan?
Rhodes also knew a lot about giants. The Royal City was the city of giants in ancient times, and the former justices were all descendants of giants. When he was in Fanxing Town, he even pretended to be the ancestor of giants, Ehaius, and tricked and killed those idiots. .
This is one of the proudest achievements in his life.
The King of the Deep Sea, Asdeth, is obviously a corrupted giant in appearance, but Rhodes only thought that it was an old master who looked like a giant, but he did not expect that it was really a giant.
"Twelve giant kings? What about the other eleven?"
"If I kill them, can I also get the ashes of the monsters in this room, and thus gain 75 points of divinity?"
The Book of Knowledge replied emphatically: "Maybe even more!"
Rhodes asked again: "Does Ehaeus, the ancestor of giants, still exist?"
The Book of Knowledge hesitated for a moment and replied: "It should have been completely destroyed. There are no corpses and no monsters. The legend of dismemberment should be just a legend."
Rhodes nodded, memorizing the information about the giant deeply, and planned to look for it in the big library when he returned to the royal city.
——
In the next few days, Rhodes spent time in the big library.
This largest library in mankind is filled with all kinds of books, and their first classification is time.
The older ones are on the lower level of the big library, and the newer ones are on the upper level.
Therefore, what is stored on the first floor of the big library is all current history.
Rhodes started from the beginning and read down, not letting go of any knowledge.
He also needs some relief.
While Rhodes was focusing on studying, Trorian was also changing rapidly.
Aleihan and others completely occupied the old fort and transformed it into a large stronghold.
Humanity's defense line has taken another big step forward.
The ultra-large solar crystal veins have entered a regular state of mining, and solar crystals are continuously sent to the royal city.
Starry Sky City has completely lost its function. The Ten Thousand Stars Instrument has been seriously polluted and no longer condenses the star source. If it is used forcibly, it will condense black water.
In desperation, Molly had to shut down the Holy Fire Sacrifice in Star City.
Since then, the mission of Star City has been completed and all the garrison personnel have withdrawn.
Everyone was in high spirits, and Wangcheng even held a grand welcome ceremony for them.
Only Rhodes lamented that he had lost another source of divinity.
A portion of Star Source has 8 points of divinity, which adds up to quite a lot.
It takes 760’s divinity to ignite the [Song of Life], which is exactly when he needs divinity.
This huge vacancy must be filled when the stars shine next time.
Rhodes was studying almost without sleep or food. He had never been so serious in his entire life.
Of course, he didn't just bury his head in the pile of old papers.
During this period of time, the dreamland has been accelerating towards the edge of the Sea of Chaos.
Because the dream stayed in the sea of chaos for too long, as soon as it left the clouds, it was attacked by monsters from the spiritual world.
The initial attack was relatively weak and did not pose any threat to the dreamland at all. However, as the stay time lengthened and the disturbance caused by accelerated movement, more and more powerful spiritual monsters joined the attack on the dreamland.
There are many high-end and powerful monsters among them.
The Book of Knowledge had to frequently sacrifice the Tower of the Sun and counterattack with the Spiritual Light Cannon.
However, the Tower of the Sun is seriously damaged, has insufficient firepower, and consumes source energy, slowing down the speed of Dreamland.
Therefore, many times, the doll will leave the dreamland and kill crazily nearby.
This time, Rhodes truly saw the combat power of the doll.
To deal with these monsters, even without divine blessing, it is invincible.
The doll usually dual-wields two psychic blades, flies into the monster group and kills wildly, chopping up a large number of spiritual monsters like melons and vegetables.
The figure shining with golden light appeared in the crowd of gray-black monsters. Nothing could block it. The most important thing is that the doll will not be corrupted and eroded by the spiritual world. It can move freely in the spiritual world. .
Of course, just one doll can't handle all the overwhelming monsters.
The King of Evil Ghosts soon joined the fight.
After many dangerous soul transformations, this powerful combat servant is finally put to use.
It has super high recovery ability and super psychic depth, and can continue fighting for a long time, like a never-ending killing machine.
The only drawback is that it can only stay in the dreamland, or within 500 yards nearby.
But this is enough.
Monsters like swarms of locusts are the biggest threat to the dream. They will block the movement of the dream and damage the outer layer of protection of the dream.
And with its huge body, the King of Evil Ghosts can carve a bloody path for Dream Hollow among the monsters. It is not afraid of pain or fatigue, and fights endlessly.
The King of Evil Ghosts won Rhodes' respect with his powerful fists and strong body.
In most cases, Rhodes doesn't need to take action unless he encounters a very powerful monster.
Rhodes will only take action when the Book of Knowledge detects that a monster with level 13 or above is approaching.
After his spiritual power surged one after another, he was no longer what he used to be.
Just a few gestures can cause space disturbances and psychic collapse.
And his new star [Contact of Evil] is far more useful than imagined.
Whenever his fingers touch an enemy, the tentacled whip of destruction breaks down its defenses and triggers an oscillation of psychic energy.
It was so effective that some monsters had their souls shattered and destroyed themselves just by being touched by Rhodes.
It is worth mentioning that.
Whether it is a dream, a doll, or a monster killed by the King of Evil Ghosts, their souls will be taken away.
This should be a creation of their dreams.
The kill of the dream creature is of course equivalent to his kill.
Therefore, during this period of time, the dreamland has been full of souls, and there are also many soul-like resources.
He only lacks the king's soul and divinity now, and nothing else.
Just like this, after a few days, the dreamland was finally approaching the edge of the Sea of Chaos.
At this moment, Asa, who had been sleeping for a long time, finally woke up.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
He started laughing the first thing he woke up.
"I am already invincible, nothing can stop me from becoming the king of shit swallowing! Hahahahaha!"
"Master, you don't know how much I have gained from Amon's evil thoughts!"
