Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1058  Bad Luck And Escape (Part 1)

When Evan received the information about the Halberd of Destruction after bringing it out of the Tomb, he also received the knowledge about using the Halberd properly.

During the two months he spent after coming out of the Tomb, other than increasing his understanding of the conceptual energy of void, he also spent a considerable amount of time practising Halberd techniques.

Besides the basic Halberd techniques, he also received information about a special technique he could execute only while holding the Halberd of Destruction. The special technique was called—Soul Slayer War Arts.

Because the Halberd of Destruction Evan brought out from the Tomb was only a replica, not the real Halberd of Destruction, the Soul Slayer War Arts he received were incomplete.

Evan didn't know how many moves were in the Soul Slayer War Arts, but because he did not have the real Halberd of Destruction, he received information about only the first three moves.

As Evan used the first move of the Soul Slayer War Arts—Vortex of Lost Souls, the beam of black-golden light coming out of the tip of the Halberd disappeared, and a small black-golden-colored spinning vortex formed on its tip.

Evan pointed the tip of the Halberd towards Borin, bent his body forward and pulled the Halberd behind him in a stabbing position.

When Borin saw the black-golden coloured spinning vortex at the tip of the Halberd, his blood turned cold, and a sense of impending doom engulfed his body.

He wanted to run away, but a powerful force was locking down his body, making him unable to move or even use his world essence.

The Primordial Shadow Energy within Evan's core churned wildly, and he poured a large amount of energy inside the Halberd of Destruction.

In an instant, the Halberd of Destruction absorbed all the energy that Evan poured into it and the vortex on its tip stopped spinning for a moment.

The moment the vortex stopped spinning, Evan's eyes shone with a sharp light and he stabbed forward in Borin's direction.

When Evan stabbed forward, the Halberd and the vortex didn't produce any sound.

The terrifying power of the Halberd of Destruction simply ripped apart the space; the area inside the Shadow World lost its colour, turning pure black for a moment.

The vortex at the tip of the Halberd detached itself and slowly moved towards Borin, who stood in the same place, looking at the incoming fist-sized black-golden vortex with a look of horror on his face.

Borin's eyes were filled with fear and he tried to raise his hands in front of him to stop the vortex, but the speed at which Borin lifted his hands was so slow that it looked like he was moving in slow motion.

The small spinning vortex arrived in front of Borin, and before he could lift his hand even a few centimetres, it struck his chest, sinking within his body.

The moment the vortex sank inside his body, the area within the Shadow World, which had turned pitch black started to return to normal and soon regained its colors.

However, the place from where the black-golden vortex passed by was still pitch black as if that area was swallowed by something.

Thud!

Within the silent Shadow World, a thudding sound rang out and Borin dropped to his knees with hollow eyes, as if his soul had left his body. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Slowly, blood started to flow out of his eyes and his aura gradually weakened. In just a few seconds, his aura dropped to the very bottom and the next moment...

Swish!

A colourful vortex shot out of his body and rushed inside the Halberd of Destruction.

The moment the colourful vortex sank inside the Halberd, Evan felt the power of the Halberd increase a little bit, and the boost it was giving to his powers while holding it strengthened by a small amount.

'Elora, can this soul help you strengthen yourself?' Evan asked Elora once the orb was swallowed by the Halberd.

'This soul is very weak and won't help much,' Elora instantly replied upon hearing him.

Hearing Elora, Evan pondered for a bit and said after a moment.

'Since this soul can't help you much, then don't refine it. We can use the soul collected by the first move of the Soul Slayer War Arts to execute the second move, right?'

'Yes, but Father, this soul is very weak, and you won't be able to use the second move without collecting more souls.'

'I see...' Evan frowned a little when he heard that even the soul of a Peak Rank Three Core Evolver wasn't enough to execute the second move of Soul Slayer War Arts.

'Well, considering the fact that the second move is powerful enough to even threaten a Rank Four Core Evolvers, it's not surprising that it needs a lot of energy,' Evan thought to himself and shook his head.

'Elora, don't destroy his soul and let it stay put for now,' He said and walked towards Borin.

'Okay, Father,' Elora said hearing Evan and the Halberd of Destruction disappeared from his hand.

Evan came in front of Borin and noticed that although his aura had dropped to the very bottom and he had lost his soul, there was still life force within his body.

"If I don't return his soul to his body, the weak life force remaining in his body will soon disappear," Evan said while rubbing his chin as he looked at Borin's hollow eyes.

"Now that he has lost his soul, I wonder if the trunk-kun will deliver a new soul inside his body," He muttered with a strange look on his face. "If a new soul really gets delivered inside his body, wouldn't he become a son of heaven, son of destiny, or some sh*t like that?"

Although Evan really wanted to see if the trunk-kun would do its job or not, he couldn't wait for too long, so he sighed and, with a simple gesture, wiped out Borin's life force.

After killing Borin, he put away his body inside his shadow storage.

---) Primordial Shadow Energy: 1936

He glanced at his status window and, seeing he still had around 2000 points of shadow energy left, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

He had been using the Halberd of Destruction during the entire fight and was even managing the Shadow World, which also consumes Primordial Shadow Energy, so seeing he still had nearly two thousand points of energy left even after all this, he was really glad.

'I can finally use the Primordial Shadow Energy to execute powerful skills without running out of gas in just a minute or so,' He thought to himself and took a step forward, instantly appearing near the blood pond that Zorda created earlier.
