Necromancer Of The Shadows

Evan rode the Wind and Lightning sheep as it moved towards another location marked on the map. While moving towards the second location, he retrieved the Beginner Level Rank One Soul Beacon that he had dropped earlier to use in case of emergencies during the hunt.

Because the firepower of Team Red exceeded his initial expectations, Evan divided them into two groups after collecting the Scarlet Blood Rose and ordered each group to head to a different location marked on the map to collect the treasure guarded by the monsters there.

"If everything goes well, I should be able to gather everything from the locations marked on the map in a few hours," Evan muttered, glancing at the deep red flower in his hand.

---) The Scarlet Blood Rose: A rare flower that blooms only after absorbing the blood essence of different kinds of people. The petals of the Scarlet Blood Rose are filled with pure blood energy that can enhance the power of the consumer's bloodline or awaken the power of a dormant Bloodline.

"I just need to consume the petals of the flower and refine the blood energy inside them to increase the power of my Bloodline or awaken the dormant bloodline," He said in a low voice and hesitated slightly.

---) The current effects of the Doom Bringer Bloodline (Partially Awakened): The power of all Shadow-type skills increased by twenty percent. All of your attack-type skills will now carry the essence of the Doom Bringer bloodline and will have a 0.1% chance of triggering an instant death effect regardless of your target's rank. Because of the curse of the Doom Bringer Bloodline, your luck is reduced by ten percent.contemporary romance

The power of Evan's bloodline was quite strong, especially its instant death effect. However, he hesitated to consume the Scarlet Blood Rose and further enhance his bloodline due to its curse. His bloodline was still partially awakened, but its curse reduced his luck by 20%.

It is only because of his title, "The Creator of The Primordial Shadow Realm," that the curse effect of his bloodline is reduced by 50%, making the twenty percent reduction in luck become 10%.

He was afraid that if he used the Scarlet Blood Rose, it might fully awaken his bloodline, further reducing his luck and possibly leading to his demise while he is inside the Tomb Of The Ancient.

"Forget it, I will use it after leaving the Tomb. Even if my luck is reduced to the bottom after leaving, I should be able to deal with it somehow since I will just stay in the closed world of the Drayds," Evan said to himself and put away the Scarlet Blood Rose into his shadow storage.

After deciding to use the Scarlet Blood Rose later, Evan went to the other locations where Team Black had found the treasures. In the plain ground, the most powerful monsters were mid-level Rank Two, so he didn't encounter any problems during collecting the things marked on the map.

The second team he had sent also had more than five hundred shadow undeads, including Albelu and Brown, so they also easily collected the items guarded by the monsters.

There were a total of nine locations that the team black had marked on the map, and in just five hours, Evan and his shadow undeads collected the treasures from the eight places.

During these five hours, Evan felt the presence of many other people who entered the plain ground after exploring the other locations of the Tomb. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts and not waste his time, Evan wisely avoided all those people.

The strongest person he noticed in the plain ground was a beginner level Rank Two Mechadroid and that guy immediately ran away when he felt the presence of thousands of shadow undeads.

While Evan was heading towards the last place marked on the map, he came across the second group of Team Red who was heading in that direction as well.

"Did you get anything useful from the last location you went?" Evan asked Albelu as he moved towards the ninth location.

After getting the Scarlet Blood Rose, he didn't get anything that he could use on the spot to increase his power. Even Albelu and his team only found rank two materials or herbs that he could use only after turning them into potions or creating artefacts.

"We found this World Essence Pearl from the last place," Albelu said hearing Evan and handed him a small dark blue pearl.

Evan took the pearl from Albelu, and his eyes instantly lit up after reading its details

---) World Essence Pearl: A small pearl that contains pure world essence inside it. Refining this pearl can increase the amount of world essence inside your core.

"Finally something useful..." Evan said in a delightful voice after reading the details of the pearl and swallowed it without hesitation.

The moment he swallowed the pearl, the pearl shattered, and the pure world essence inside it rushed towards his primordial monarch core.

Evan's Primordial Monarch Core began to spin at a rapid speed and absorbed all the world essence from the pearl.

In just a few minutes, Evan's core, which was thirteen percent of the mid level Rank One, reached twenty-six percent of mid level Rank One.

Evan was stunned after refining the pearl, as he did not expect his core to progress by a whole 13% just from refining a single pearl.

"The Primordial Monarch Core needs a lot more world essence compared to a normal core in order to advance, but even then it progressed by 13% just from refining a single pearl..." Evan muttered in a shocked voice and sighed lightly. "...If a normal mid level Rank One Core Evolver had refined that pearl, their core might have progressed by 30 to 35%."

After refining the world essence peral, Evan continued to move towards the last location marked on the map.

Volac was still following behind him, riding a wind and lightning sheep. He was in the process of creating the map of the outside of the plain ground, and Team Black was doing a perfect job in this matter.

From time to time, Evan had to resummon some of the members of Team Black using his world essence, as they were killed by either monsters or powerful individuals while investigating the Tomb. After a few minutes, Evan was just a few thousand kilometres away from the last location marked on the map.

Rumble! Boom! - - -

Suddenly, he heard the sound of fighting coming from the direction of the last location.

Evan raised an eyebrow when he felt the energy waves and looked at the map.

"The monster who is guarding the treasure at the last location is a mid level Rank Two Monster..." He said and narrowed his eyes. "...Don't tell me someone found its location and started to fight against it in order to get the treasure that it is guarding."

During all this time, Evan had avoided people of other species to avoid any unnecessary conflicts with them, but it didn't mean he was afraid of them.

With the current numbers of his shadow undeads and his own powers, there weren't many people in the Tomb who could pose any threat to him.

"Let's first check out what is the thing that the monster is guarding. If it's something not very valuable or useless to me, I will leave the plain ground and head towards the mountain area without doing anything, but..." He said and looked in the direction of the fight. "...If the thing that the monster is guarding turns out to be something useful to me, I will just politely take it away."

After making his decision, Evan ordered the wind and lightning sheep to increase their speed and head towards the direction of the energy waves.

The wind and lightning sheep was just using its agility to move till now, but when Evan asked it to move even faster, the sheep used its skill and wind and lightning burst forth from its body, improving its agility even more.

As Evan got closer to the destination and felt the energy waves from up close, a look of confusion flashed across his face.

"Why can I feel five different types of energy waves coming from that direction?" Evan asked himself and looked in the direction of the fight with a strange look on his face.

After a few minutes, he was just a few hundred kilometres away from the location marked on the map and the mid level Rank Two monster who was guarding the treasure finally came into his sight. The monster who was guarding the treasure was a five meters tall ape.

When Evan saw the ape, he was completely taken aback because the mid level Rank Two ape was covered in deep wounds and was on the verge of death.

"This monster is already a goner so who are these people fighting now..." Evan muttered in a baffled voice and looked in the distance, only to see four people fighting against each other.
