Necromancer Of The Shadows

1147  Against The Mid Level Rank Four (Part 2)

Amid the darkness created by the Void Energy and Death Ring, a black-golden light flashed, and the Halberd of Destruction appeared in Evan's hand.

A wave of destructive energy spread outward in all directions as after summoning the Halberd of Destruction, Evan simply stabbed in the Rank Four Eldritch Horror's direction.

The moment Evan stabbed, the surrounding void energy wrapped and twisted, a small void rift formed in front of him and the tip of the Halberd of Destruction passed through it.

In front of the Eldritch Horror, which was hundreds of meters away, a small void rift appeared out of nowhere, and the tip of a black-golden halberd, brimming with endless destructive energy emerged from it.

The Rank Four Eldritch Horror was startled when the Halberd of Destruction suddenly appeared in front of it and immediately waved its hundreds of tentacles, clashing with the Halberd's tip.

The moment the halberd's tip clashed with the tentacles—

BOOOOOOM!

Tens of tentacles exploded into dark black blood mist. The surrounding void energy churned due to the powerful impact, and for a moment, the area around the Rank Four Eldritch Horror was completely cleared of void energy.

ROAR!

The Eldritch Horror roared in pain as many of its tentacles were destroyed by the halberd.

It used its remaining tentacles to try to grab the halberd emerging from the small void rift. However, before the Eldritch Horror could seize the halberd, Evan pulled back his hand, causing the small void rift to disappear, making it impossible for the creature to snatch the weapon.

At the same time, Evan controlled his Zone, submerging the surroundings of the Eldritch Horror in darkness once again.

The Eldritch Horror was extremely angry at being submerged in void energy once more. Because of Event Horizon, it had already expended a lot of energy to stop the invasion of the Void Energy to avoid losing its life force and World Essence.

Now, with Evan's Zone layered over Event Horizon along with Death Ring, it felt extremely frustrated.

Evan had integrated his Void Senses skill when creating his Zone, making it a type that targeted the opponent's soul.

Now that Evan had broken through to Rank Three, his spiritual power had greatly increased, becoming comparable to that of a normal beginner-level Rank Four Core Evolver.

Because the Eldritch Horrors were mindless creatures with low intelligence, their spiritual power was quite weak compared to other beings of the same rank.

Although the Eldritch Horror Evan was fighting was a mid-level Rank Four creature, its spiritual power was almost the same as Evan's, making it very difficult for it to resist Evan's Zone, which constantly targeted its soul. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Not only that, but because of the conceptual energy of the soul mixed within his shadow energy, the power of Evan's Zone was even greater when aimed at a target's soul.

When the Eldritch Horror felt its soul being targeted repeatedly by Evan's Zone, it immediately lost its mind and burst out with its full strength.

BOOOOOOOOOM!

With a booming sound, a burst of boiling Eldritch Energy erupted from its body, blowing away the surrounding void energy and breaking apart Evan's Zone.

ROAR!

With a defensive roar, the Eldritch Horror's starfish-like body immediately surged forward the moment the Void Energy was blown away, appearing right in front of Evan.

The creature's terrifying aura solidified the space around Evan, making it impossible for him to teleport away using the Void Energy.

Hundreds of tentacles moved simultaneously and lashed out towards Evan like whips, intending to turn him into meat paste.

Under the effect of Temporal Velocity, Evan looked at the hundreds of tentacles coming towards him with a serious expression.

From the sharp wind blowing towards his face due to the moving tentacles, he was certain that even one of them hitting him would result in serious injury.

Even though the situation looked dire, there wasn't a hint of fear on Evan's face.

Looking at the hundreds of tentacles about to hit him, he took a deep breath and activated his skills, Star Fall and Power Aura.

===

---) Star Fall (Unique Skill): Upon activation, increases the user's strength stat in accordance with the amount of World Essence consumed. For every two points of World Essence, it increases the user's strength stat by one point. The higher the user increases their strength using Star Fall, the greater the burden on their body. If the body of the user is not strong enough to handle the increased strength, there is a very high chance they will suffer serious injuries or their body might even explode.

---) Power Aura: When activated, the user emits a power aura that increases strength by 10%. While Power Aura is active, the user's agility is reduced by 10%.

Using Star Fall, Evan consumed the full two thousand points of World Essence and increased his strength stat by one thousand points, bringing it to 4855 points.

Under the effect of Power Aura, that 4855 increased by another 485 points, making his strength stat reach 5370, surpassing the 5000 mark.

Evan held the Halberd of Destruction with his right hand, and his hand muscles suddenly bulged as if they would burst at any moment.

With the boost provided by both skills and the additional burst of power from the Halberd of Destruction, Evan took a step forward, poured his Primordial Shadow Energy into the Halberd without stopping, and slashed horizontally.

Wrrrrr!

As Evan slashed with the Halberd, the surrounding area emitted a strange sound as if the space within tens of kilometres was on the verge of collapsing.

The pitch-black Halberd, glowing with golden light of destruction created a perfect giant arc and collided with hundreds of writhing tentacles in an instant.

The moment the Halberd and the tentacles clashed, time seemed to stop and everything fell silent. But the silence didn't last long because, an instant later...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

With a deafening boom, the pitch-black area created by Event Horizon, the Void Zone, and Death Ring was blown apart.

Space collapsed, laws were disordered, and waves of destruction swept outward in all directions.

ROAR!

A painful roar echoed through the surroundings as black blood rained from the sky, and all the tentacles of the Rank Four Eldritch Horror turned into a mist of blood.

At the same time, the creature's giant body was thrown back hundreds of meters.

CRACK!

Amid the pained roar of the Eldritch Horror, the sound of bones cracking echoed as Evan's figure, with his arm completely disfigured was sent flying backward at ten times the speed of sound.

Seeing the creature was also severely wounded, he gritted his teeth and forced his body to forcefully stop, worsening his injuries in the process.

13:10

After regaining control, Evan instantly stepped forward, appearing ten meters above the Eldritch Horror in an instant.

In mid-air, he coughed up blood mixed with fragments of his internal organs and his aura sharply diminished.

Despite being gravely injured and unable to control his body, Evan still raised his head in mid-air and looked at the Eldritch Horror, who was roaring in pain after losing all its tentacles.

Seeing the creature was also severely wounded, he gritted his teeth and forced his body to forcefully stop, worsening his injuries in the process.

After regaining control, Evan instantly stepped forward, appearing ten meters above the Eldritch Horror in an instant.

The moment Evan appeared above it, the Eldritch Horror reacted immediately and lifted its head.

But the moment it looked up, it was greeted by the sight of Evan's Zone engulfing it once more and two words reached its ears.

"Void Sealing!"

As soon as the Eldritch Horror heard the words, a look of fear appeared on its face as it realized all of its powers were sealed by a strange energy, causing it to fall from the sky.

As it plummeted, the creature suddenly noticed a golden glow filling the surroundings.

It raised its head, and the moment it looked up, the hundreds of eyes on its starfish-like body widened in terror as it saw a massive Halberd, glowing with golden light descending from the sky.

Before the Eldritch Horror could move to evade it, the Halberd's tip tore through the air and struck it, turning the creature into a shooting star and nailing it to the ground with an earth-shattering boom.
