The contamination in the Star Spirit Forbidden Land is generally a normal phenomenon.
This is because thousands of years ago, when the Gods took authority from the Star Spirit Tree, it would cause the Star Spirit Tree to release an equivalent amount of contamination power, which would only be directly funneled into the Abyss once it was fully formed.
Since then, the residual contamination around the Star Spirit Tree has not been much, only the area near the funneling entrance would have dense contamination.
Now, with contamination persisting over hundreds of kilometers, Rose, who was previously unclear, can basically attribute it to the Divine King.
It has already been confirmed that the Golden Apple Stone Forest is the Divine King's doing, combined with Ethel's statement and his past actions of opening the Abyss Gate, it can be directly inferred that on the Starfall Continent, any larger contamination area is the Divine King's doing.
