"Spirit Elegy" This star is specially used to enhance Spiritual Energy.
Its Star Energy is vast Spiritual Energy, and according to the Book of Knowledge, it’s not until it reaches its final stage that this ability is fully unleashed.
Indeed, once the starlight stabilized, it became the brightest star in the starry sky.
Within the starlight, a new line of text emerged.
"State: Constant Burning"
"Quantification: Child of the Stars"
"Position: Eternal Fire"
"Description: She has fallen, but her belief endures"
Looking at the freshly baked 50,000 Strength, Rod felt boundless joy in his heart. In just one night, his Spiritual Power Strength had surged by 90,000, achieving a leapfrog increase in power.
Indeed, the Great Soul is extraordinary.
Now, he had undergone a complete transformation, no longer the same as before.
Even the Book of Knowledge rarely agreed with him.
"Not bad, you finally count as a person," it said.
Rod laughed, "Strong, right? I said I wouldn’t disappoint you. You should feel lucky to have met a master like me, who comes once every ten thousand years. With my current strength, I should be able to fight alongside the King, right?"
The Book of Knowledge nodded its pages, "Yes, you could help the King polish his shoes before he sets out to war."
Rod stuck a finger into the gap between its pages.
"Say that again?" he said.
The Book of Knowledge suddenly wilted.
"The... The Great Master can, of course, lead the insignificant King to the ultimate Victory of war, and all the King needs to do is help you polish your shoes."
Rod smiled, "That’s right, you put it well."
The Book of Knowledge was almost exploding with anger.
It had never encountered such a shameless master.
Previous masters had all been heroic figures, full of grand schemes and noble ambitions, wise and magnanimous, clearly destined to become top-tier kings fighting against the darkness.
But it never expected to meet such a guy now—weak, bizarre, and shameless, knowing nothing, yet somehow grasping its weakness.
The Book of Knowledge couldn’t resist and was helpless as Rod withdrew his finger and it ran off with its pages clutched.
It made up its mind to stealthily consume all the Spirituality in the storage when the master wasn’t around.
"Hmph, that will teach you to poke me."
Rod didn’t know about the tiny vengeful thought in the Book of Knowledge’s heart; he was already planning his next move.
Archbishop Horus had sent him multiple letters urging him to quickly clear the last two neighboring areas and establish a complete defense system.
That way, the expedition would be perfectly successful, and the Elder Council could only agree to the King’s decree.
The Holy Fire project would then officially begin.
All core members involved in the Holy Fire project were anxious. Although success was just a step away, Rod remained immobile, which made them restless.
But Rod was at a critical moment and had to stay home, indifferent to their constant urging.
The crisis was over now, Divinity was within reach, and Rod’s strength had soared, making it the perfect time to launch an expedition.
How to clear these two areas as quickly as possible and lay the foundation for gaining more Divinity when the Stars Flash next was what he needed to consider now.
As Rod pondered, he created the Resurrection Stone.
This was a necessity.
Even without using Void’s Fury, it facilitated him in employing other self-destructive methods, such as a million Thunder Stones.
It also allowed him to avoid sudden mishaps like dying on the spot.
The Resurrection Stone was his core, his confidence, the foundation of all his adventurous actions.
With the Resurrection Stone, he could confidently carry out his plans.
After doing all this, Rod contentedly approached the Obelisk.
He saw in the night sky on the obelisk surface, seven bright stars shining.
Ha, I’m also a man with seven stars now, Rod happily thought.
One of the Seven Stars was further away, at the upper portion of the starry sky.
With a bit of imagination, it resembled the handle of a ladle.
The five stars made up the body of the ladle.
And in the middle of the handle was the brightest star.
It was "Spirit Elegy" which had just reached its complete State.
It had gained a new Star Energy, "Elegy."
Rod tried it out and found that it merely sang a mournful and melancholic song, without any other special effects.
He asked the Book of Knowledge, but it was throwing a tantrum and ignoring him.
But when Rod raised his middle finger, it obediently answered.
"’Spirit Elegy’ is a star that enhances Spiritual Energy, while ’Elegy’ is just a lamentation for their tragic and inevitable fate, with no particular function," it said.
Rod realized that this wasn’t so bad—it could be a chance to showcase a talent sometime.
He glanced at the data on the obelisk.
Soul Strength: 114200
Humanity: 1.57 million
Souls Without Spirit: 10,000
Storage: 15 Flowers of Humanity, 103,616 Spirituality, various items (listed separately).
Rod was overjoyed in his heart, his Soul Strength had reached 114,000. By estimation, my Spiritual Energy should be around 220,000 measures.
Hahaha, I’m invincible now.
I must hurry up and perform the Spiritual Energy advancement ritual. I wonder how many levels I’ll be able to ascend this time.
In the end, Rod looked around the Dream Realm one last time and then glanced at the statue of Theodore in the Eternal Square.
It looked the same as before, unchanged.
It seemed that even the moment when the stars shone brightly couldn’t summon his spirit back.
Rod sighed lightly and left the Dream Realm.
It was now deep into the night.
