Necromancer Of The Shadows

Huff* Huff*

Voidscar and Blaze panted a little as they looked at the dead body of the starfish floating above the water of the essence spring pond. Around the dead starfish, a few more people lay lifeless. They were the ones who couldn't escape in time and were killed by the starfish.

"That bastard ran away..." Voidscar said in a voice filled with fury as he searched for Evan using his spiritual senses but couldn't find him.

It took Blaze and him nearly twenty minutes to kill the starfish. Although they could have done it faster, they didn't use their trump cards or other powerful skills because they were planning to venture into the first layer of the tomb, which was filled with many mid and peak Rank Three monsters.

Both of them wanted to preserve their best skills and authorities, which is why it took them more than twenty minutes to kill the starfish even though they were working together.

After confirming that Evan had really escaped, Voidscar dove into the essence spring pond. His body flashed with deep purple void energy, and all the chaotic world essence that tried to approach him was swallowed by it.

Under the protection of the Void Energy, Voidscar reached the bottom of the pond in less than a minute and searched everywhere.

Blaze waited for him outside and collected the storage rings of the people who died because they couldn't escape from the starfish.

Boom!

After a minute, the water of the essence spring pond was blown away by an immense force, and Voidscar emerged with an angry expression.

"Damn you, Dead Man! I will rip off your head next time I see you!" His void energy became chaotic as he shouted loudly.

Blaze sighed when she saw this and shook her head.

"To think he would snatch the evolution essence drop from under our noses," Blaze muttered in a low voice and rubbed her forehead. "Damn, it was such a good chance for me to get my hands on a mid-level void crystal, but that lazy bastard ruined it."

Blaze glanced at Voidscar, who was still screaming like a madman, and silently started to walk away from the scene. They had only been working together because of the evolution essence drop, but now that it was stolen by a third party, there was no reason for her to stay with him.

"Considering his powers, he will definitely go to the first layer of the tomb," Blaze muttered as her eyes flashed with flames. "Let's see if he still acts like a lazy bastard when I meet him again."

---) Perfect Level Essence Stone: An essence stone filled with the purest world essence. Using this stone during a breakthrough increases the chances of a successful breakthrough. There is also a small possibility that after refining the perfect essence stone, the potential of your core will increase by one minor level.

Evan examined the details of the shining stone Aqua had found at the bottom of the pond, and a surprised expression crossed his face.

Honestly, he didn't care much about how the perfect level essence stone could assist him during a breakthrough, given the solid foundation of his Primordial Monarch Core, making breakthroughs was relatively easy for him. However, he was quite interested in the second effect of the perfect-level essence stone.

"There are billions of people in this world who can't progress further due to the limited potential of their cores, and they would pay any price for this stone just to have a small chance of increasing their potential by one minor level," Evan said with gleaming eyes as he stored all three perfect level essence stones found by Aqua in his shadow storage.

Thinking about the perfect level essence stones, Evan suddenly remembered the Fire Domain Stone that was still evolving inside the evolution space of the Rune Of Evolution due to the fourth effect of the Growth Link skill, and he opened his status window. ( Chap- 704)

---) Time Remaining Before The Fire Domain Stone Evolves Into A Perfect Level Fire Domain Stone: 25 Days 3 Hours and 4 Minutes.

"Twenty-five days, huh..." Evan muttered in a low voice and nodded his head. "I think it will evolve right on time."

After confirming the status of the Fire Domain Stone, he took out the potion bottle in which Aqua had placed the evolution essence drop. He opened the cork of the bottle and the details of the evolution essence drop appeared in front of his eyes.

---) Evolution Essence Drop: A rare treasure that can evolve one of the user's skill or authority upon consumption. The higher the level of the skill or authority, the more drops of the evolution essence they require to evolve.

Evan read the details of the Evolution Essence Drop, and his eyes opened wide in shock.

"This thing can evolve one of my skills or authority..." He muttered in a shocked voice, taking deep breaths to calm down his fast-beating heart.

After reading the details of the essence evolution drop, there was no hesitation in his mind as the thing that he wanted to evolve immediately came into his mind.

"There is no way I am going to use it to evolve a skill when it can evolve an authority..." He muttered, thinking about which authority he should evolve using the evolution essence drop.

He had two authorities: one was Death Guardian, while the other was Master of Shadows. Both of these Authorities were out of this world and were his main trump cards against a powerful opponent, so it wasn't easy for him to choose one authority among them.

After considering everything for a long time, Evan finally reached a decision and made up his mind.

"Here goes nothing..." He said and drank the single drop of the evolution essence he had in one go.

The moment he drank the drop, a strange power coursed through his body, and a notification flashed before his eyes.

(Choose the skill or Authority that you want to evolve!)
