CHAPTER 928: CHAPTER 492: STARLIT DIVINE TEMPLE

Twelve Level Spiritual Energy, more than 20,000 Absolute Spiritual Power Strength, provided strong propulsion to the [Star Shuttle].

Dazzling silver-white star lines shot out from his fingertips at an extremely fast speed, winding around the Star Shuttle, the ten-fold boost turning it into a blurry halo of light.

An aura of extreme danger burst forth, the Demonic Flesh seemed frightened, suddenly curling up, coarse black fur covered its surface, forming a thick armor.

Chirp!

The Star Shuttle shot out, its shining trail like a sword of light piercing through the coarse black fur and thick outer skin, plunging directly into the Demonic Flesh. The subsequent violent explosion tore open its thick skin, creating a huge cavity on its body.

The Demonic Flesh collapsed with a boom, black dust rising, beginning to evaporate.

A wisp of grey gas penetrated into the chest.

[Soul of the Corrupted Demonic Flesh]

Rod noticed, beneath the floating white words in his eyes, there was a tiny ellipsis.

This indicated the Dream Realm had additional records on this soul.

With a thought, the complete text appeared before him.

[This is part of the dark-sided soul from the Corrupted Demonic Flesh]

[Black blood wraps around corpses and dead souls, this is a creature formed from blood matter shed by a greater existence, drifting in the River of Eternal Death for countless years]

Rod frowned, he seemed to have seen similar words somewhere but couldn’t recall for the moment.

From this line of explanatory text, this monster seems to have formed in a Higher Plane Spirit Realm. Why would it appear here?

What is that "greater existence" in the River of Eternal Death?

Questions flashed through Rod’s mind but didn’t linger long.

Because his sister Mina gave him another big bear hug filled with emotion.

"Little Rod, you’re so strong now, you’ve grown up, sister is very happy."

Rod pried her hands away: "Stop being so touchy, we are exploring dangerous ruins, not on a picnic, I remember you are also a combatant, how come you don’t get this?"

Mina puffed up angrily like a frog: "What did you say? You just said yesterday..."

Amides looked at the bickering pair with a gentle smile, as if sniffing the scent of youth.

Professor Bins’ murky gaze had long wandered to other places, the towering pillars of the Divine Temple, the fathomless sky, the engravings in the shadows, all these commonplace things contained precious information at this moment.

Professor Barrett flashed back, looking at the shattered monster corpse on the ground, his expression appeared rather annoyed.

"I clearly could... Why?"

Rod glanced at him, he distinctly felt the fluctuation of Eleventh Level spiritual energy just now, ordinarily this attack wouldn’t be this weak.

"Book, do you know why?"

The Book of Knowledge replied: "It could be his characteristic malfunctioned, his soul suffered severe damage, causing the internal trajectory of the soul to be destroyed, characteristic failure leads to abnormal expression of spiritual energy, otherwise it wouldn’t result in strong spiritual power wave with weak attack."

Rod spent a few seconds comprehending the Book of Knowledge’s words, the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.

"Is there a solution?"

The Book of Knowledge shook its head: "It’s very difficult, it requires a completely new Super Soul Technique, an expert Soul Practitioner like your Archbishop, a near-perfect soul surgery to resolve this issue."

Rod frowned, the hardest part in the Book of Knowledge’s words was "completely new Super Soul Technique", he needed to spend 10 points of Divinity to utilize the [Spirit Mechanism] of [Divine Insight].

The last "new Soul Technique" saved quite a few people, gradually earning him significant Divinity.

Suddenly, Rod discovered a promising path to earn more Divinity.

There must be many like Professor Barrett, if he finds another "new Soul Technique", wouldn’t he be able to save even more people?

Rod felt a surge of excitement, deciding to thoroughly research it after returning.

"Very strange."

Professor Bins suddenly said.

"This is a Spirit Realm Monster."

Only then did Rod see, he didn’t know when, Professor Bins appeared beside the monster’s corpse, observing its form amidst the black dust.

"Hmm... indeed, and it’s not an ordinary Spirit Realm Monster."

Professor Barrett also came over, "More like a..."

"Higher Plane Spirit Realm." Rod completed the sentence, "Born in the River of Eternal Death."

"Exactly!"

Professor Barrett clapped his hands with excitement, his brown curly hair, deep contours, an erudite face also showing enthusiasm.

"It’s the River of Eternal Death!"

He raised his head, looking at Rod: "I didn’t expect you to have studies on the Higher Plane Spirit Realm."

Rod coughed lightly: "Just a bit, I’ve only read some snippets about it in certain ancient texts."

Professor Bins’ murky eyes showed a hint of appreciation.

"Information about the Higher Plane Spirit Realm is not only profound but also scarce, in the Royal City, those who study it are no more than ten, you are quite remarkable."

Rod humbly said: "You are absolutely right, no one knows the Higher Plane Spirit Realm better than I do."

Professor Barrett looked at him curiously, asking somewhat appraisingly: "Did you see anything from the monster?"

"Hmm... from its presence, I saw black blood, corpses, and dead souls, it might have formed over eons from the blood matter shed by some greater existence."

Amides, Professor Bins, and Professor Barrett’s gazes all shifted over in an instant.
