The Last King Of Darkness

Chapter 578: Holy Grail


Molly said, "Qingyu encountered great difficulties during the process of impacting the Commander's position and was forced to use the Soul Holy Grail."

The "Holy Grail" is a type of mystical object that can achieve various miracles through special processing, and it is a powerful item.

The foundation of the Royal City, the Fire Holy Grail, is an object that realizes the miracle of fire.

Besides the Fire Holy Grail, there are also the Invisible Holy Grail, the Soul Holy Grail, the Hunter Holy Grail, and others.

The Soul Holy Grail seals a powerful unknown Evil Soul, which has a similar prophecy ability and can play a significant role in specific circumstances. However, using it comes with a great cost, and one must be careful not to be misled by it.

In the Starry Sky City Battle, Luo Weiya once used it.

Molly continued, "The Evil Soul in the Holy Grail told us that only you can help Qingyu."

Evil Soul?

Rod suddenly remembered, there was a period when Asa was very interested in it.

Could it be the Ancient Evil Thought?

If so, does the Ancient Evil Thought possess prophecy abilities? Why would it prophesy about me? Could it be some form of misdirection?

Countless questions surged in Rod's heart.

But no matter what, there's no harm in going to see Qingyu.

Since the Starry Sky City Battle, it had been a long time since he had seen her.

After his thoughts settled, Rod no longer hesitated, "Alright, then let's go."

Afterward, they quickly dressed and set off from the Black Battle Group's base, arriving at the Great Cathedral in the Royal District.

This is the headquarters of the Holy Church, with rows of churches lining the streets, fire symbols, and Trolian's badge prominently displayed atop the churches, shining brilliantly under the light of the fire.

Three King Candidates are currently here undergoing the "Fire Refining Ceremony."

This is an exclusive method to enhance the "Eternal Burning Fire" with a high level of efficiency.

However, before acquiring the Star Source, each "Fire Refining Ceremony" required a long period for digestion, adaptation, and mastery of the higher level of the "Eternal Burning Fire."

After the Royal City began providing the Star Source Potion, the digestion problem of the "Fire Refining Ceremony" was eliminated, greatly accelerating the growth rate, and Qingyu and Jon quickly reached the pinnacle of the Ninth Level, beginning their sprint towards the Commander's Domain.

The "Quantification" of characteristics is a rather lengthy process.

They have stayed here for a long time and have not appeared in public since the Starry Sky City Battle.

Rod also has not seen Qingyu for a long time.

Led by Molly, Rod arrived in front of the third Great Cathedral on the eastern side.

There, he saw the long-missed White Wolf.

This old acquaintance now appeared much more aged, no longer haughty towards Rod, bowing deeply.

"Good day, Your Excellency, Fire Son, thank you for accepting the invitation to visit."

Rod nodded, "Mr. White Wolf, hello, is Miss Qingyu inside?"

"Yes, she is waiting for you."

White Wolf turned and pushed open the door, leading Rod and Molly inside.

The interior of the church was filled with firelight, the floor laid with Red Stone, and nearly a hundred Fire Priests knelt praying, countless sparks gathering in the sky, falling into a golden container.

Archbishop Horus stood before the container, holding the myriad of sparks in his hands, gently tilting them into the container.

Rod noticed that Horus's right hand was blackened, as if it were charred.

"Your Excellency, Archbishop," White Wolf called, "Lord Rod has arrived."

"Very well."

Horus did not turn around, still concentrating on his work in front of him.

"I knew he would come, White Wolf, take him over, now, Qingyu's state is relatively stable."

White Wolf slightly bowed and said to Rod, "Follow me."

Rod and Molly followed White Wolf, weaving through the Fire Priests.

As his perspective shifted, he was surprised to find that Horus was not only burned on the hand but also on half of his face.

"What happened? What's wrong with the Archbishop?"

White Wolf said in a deep voice, "It's the backlash of the Soul Holy Grail..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang as the door on the other side of the Great Cathedral was slammed open, and Luo Weiya rushed over, holding a blackened Holy Grail.

"Horus, it's no use, the backlash of the Holy Grail can't be suppressed! It's the power of the law, that evil spirit is using it!"

From the blackened Holy Grail, one could faintly hear the sound of wild laughter.

Horus said in a deep voice, "No, we absolutely cannot fulfill his desire."

"But if this continues, the curse of evil will spread..."

"I will bear it."

"No, you can't bear it, your soul will be damaged."

Horus raised his hands and calmly said, "The Fire King City Trolian does not permit live sacrifices... Come on."

Luo Weiya did not respond, nor did he hand over the Holy Grail.

During the standoff, Rod's voice came from the side.

"Your Excellency, Archbishop, Lord Luo Weiya, are you in some kind of trouble?"

Luo Weiya turned his head, surprised, "Why are you here? Oh, you agreed, did you? Go quickly, Qingyu is in the basement. I don't know how much is hidden in the words of the Evil Soul, but I hope you really have a way."

Even while saying this, Rod sensed that he did not hold any expectations.

He glanced at the blackened Holy Grail and the charred Horus and asked again.

"Are you in some kind of trouble?"

Luo Weiya impatiently said, "The Soul Holy Grail has started its backlash, it's a product of rules, the Evil Soul followed the rules, but we did not, the curse is overflowing... Forget it, even if I told you, you wouldn't understand, just go."
