Chapter 411: Chapter 27: The First Lord of Cinder

“Obtained 1 Divinity Value.”

“Obtained 30 Source Power Value.”

Accompanied by the Space-Time Monitor System’s prompt, Su Ziyu stood up, slightly panting.

Most of his injuries weren’t caused by the Undead Squad’s Lord of Cinder, but rather by his own summoned Thunder Strike. Even though his Thunder Resistance was quite high, the previous strike still inflicted significant harm. Manually entering the Lightning Overload state was indeed feasible; however, the power must be well-controlled to avoid self-detonation, which would be quite embarrassing.

Overall, he needs to enhance his physical endurance, as the limit for Su Ziyu to withstand the Lightning Overload is entirely determined by his physical constitution.

——”Spiritual Enhancement LV8!”

There’s no room for hesitation.

Upon acquiring the second Divinity Value, Su Ziyu directly enhanced his Spiritual Energy to LV8. He had waited for this second Divinity Value through an entire plane transition.

Boom!

Su Ziyu felt as if a massive explosion occurred in his consciousness.

This time, however, he didn’t perceive the Void Star Sea, but a profound darkness enveloping the entire world. Within his perception range, this world wasn’t a planet but a parallel continental shelf suspended in endless dark void.

Some residual Spirituality from this plane came into contact with Su Ziyu.

His perception gradually penetrated the darkness, witnessing towering ancient trees tens of thousands of meters high, their towering presence overshadowing everything, becoming part of the world’s composition. Amidst the gray mist, sounds of wings taking flight echoed, then he saw the appearing Immortal Ancient Dragons breaking through the mist. Their enormous bodies were as majestic as mountains, soaring in the dark and landing on the ancient treetops.

In the darkness, something seemed to be brewing.

Finally.

Su Ziyu saw a point of light in his vision, a faint flame emitting extremely potent energy. Near this inconspicuous bonfire, divine radiance appeared in Su Ziyu’s vision, this was the king’s soul gathered around the bonfire, with the largest king’s soul almost crushing the other king’s souls, completely different in magnitude.

In the dark mire, silhouettes gradually crawled out, among them a tall figure slowly contacted the largest king’s soul.

The next moment.

Su Ziyu saw the legendary Sun King – Gwyn, a regal and powerful young man. The scene shifted, dazzling golden lightning gathered in Gwyn’s palm, the thunderbolts crossing the sky seemed like divine miracles, each Thunder Spear was hundreds of meters long, containing world-destroying energy.

The Immortal Ancient Dragons continued falling from Heaven, towering ancient trees ignited in fierce flames, the fire drove away the world’s darkness and mist, illuminating the brilliance of a new era.

Who knows how long it has been.

Possibly tens of thousands of years, or perhaps even longer.

Many scenes flashed through Su Ziyu’s vision, the final freeze-frame was the Sun King – Gwyn, already aged, yet he still exuded an astonishing aura, though his visage had aged considerably. Alone, he came before the dimming Primeval Fire, standing there, seemingly lost in thought.

A peculiar Spiral Sword appeared in the hand of Sun King – Gwyn.

He inserted this sword into his own body, then slowly sat by the bonfire, the flames of the Primeval Fire burned along his still burly body, constantly growing, gradually restoring strength.

Who knows how long Sun King – Gwyn burned in the Primeval Fire.

His body gradually dried up, sparks constantly appeared on the surface of his body, eventually transforming completely into a humanoid cinder, just an empty shell left. Just as Su Ziyu thought all had ended, Sun King – Gwyn’s broken shell abruptly opened its eyes, flames burned in his pupils, his hollow mouth slightly opened, gaze seeming to pierce the mist, locking onto Su Ziyu’s consciousness, hoarsely saying: “I see you!…”

“Join us!…”

In an instant.

The Space-Time Monitor System’s alarm sounded:

“Alert! Alert!”

“Detected unknown malevolent consciousness lock!… Activating Hourglass of Time seal!…”

“Humanity loss ongoing!…”

“Light mental pollution!…”

Ah!

Su Ziyu suddenly opened his eyes, drenched in sweat, ten meters ahead stood Sister Frieda, her expression utterly astonished, staring at Su Ziyu before her, watching the faint sparks appearing on the surface of his body, muttering: “The aura of residual fire!…”

“What did you just see?”

Su Ziyu felt his heartbeat pounding like a drum, he shook his head while gasping, tightly gripping his weapon, arduously standing up, muttering: “Sun King – Gwyn…”

“Gwyn?…” Sister Frieda’s expression was somewhat incredulous, puzzled: “He has been dead for a long time…”

Su Ziyu’s breath finally stabilized, he softly nodded, then shook his head again, solemnly saying: “But his shell still remains in this world!…”

A flash in his mind.

Sister Frieda seemed to understand something, her expression was hesitant, almost unbelievable, muttering: “Incarnation of the Lord of Cinder?…”

“If you mean that hollow shell burned by the bonfire for tens of thousands of years…” Su Ziyu took a deep breath, softly nodded: “That’s him…”

Damn!

The residual Divinity Value from the Undead Squad Lord of Cinder unexpectedly linked with the Primeval Fire, and had some connection with the world’s pan-consciousness, was it because they once burned in the Primeval Fire?

Su Ziyu, during Spiritual Enhancement, contacted the residual plane pan-consciousness.

He seemed to now know who labeled him as the Lord of Cinder upon entering this world.

Damn!

That old thing died tens of thousands of years ago, yet the remaining shell as cinder is still so formidable?

No.

That’s not Sun King – Gwyn, but something far more terrifying, because as Su Ziyu’s consciousness contacted it, the clearest feeling was hunger.

Endless hunger.

Like a person about to starve to death, filled with a strong craving for food.

“It’s not Sun King – Gwyn…”

“Could it be?” Su Ziyu’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, muttering: “Primeval Fire?…”

Does fire have consciousness?

Can fire birth consciousness?

If fire has no consciousness, then who controls the Lord of Cinder incarnation by the bonfire?

Did the Lords of Cinder from the past all burn completely?

Falan Undead Squad, Soul Refining Warlock – Rudus, Giant King Yum, Eldritch the Devourer of Gods, these four Lords of Cinder were all burned once, just now, the consciousness Su Ziyu contacted, who exactly was it?

Sun King – Gwyn?

Or the Primeval Fire?

Or perhaps something even more terrifying?
