The hallway is secluded and dark.

Some of the old wooden floors creaked strangely underfoot.

And there was a thick and almost suffocating smell of shadows in the air.

When he arrived here, he was getting closer and closer to the dark core, and the flame aura around Grim's body was also greatly suppressed, and he could only barely extend half a meter outside his body, which could protect his body and clothes.

And in Grim's strange eyes, one real and one imaginary, the corridor in front of him was like a haunted house, and wisps of shadow energy like substance escaped from the second room on the left, slowly but truly cruising and fluttering in the corridor.

Due to the dense aura of shadows, these strange shadows seem to be showing signs of activation.

They fluttered and wriggled in the narrow corridors, twisting and turning into all sorts of strange and strange shapes. From afar, it looks like a terrifying demon waiting for its prey to come to the door.

No sooner had Grim stepped into the corridor and into the clear darkness than the nearest shadow came alive into a strange mouth full of fangs, biting at him viciously.

Grim snorted lightly, and the right hand wrapped in flames reached out with lightning and stabbed into the mouth of the strange mouth, no matter how desperately the other party bit and grinded, it could not penetrate the flame barrier and damage his arm. And Grim's big hand tentatively groped for a moment inside the strange mouth, and when he suddenly withdrew it, there was already a dark and shiny black crystal in the palm of his palm.

Losing the black crystal, the strange mouth roared wildly for a moment before vanishing.

Grim held the black crystal in front of his eyes and looked at it, and the chip quickly projected its basic information.

Name of substance: Shadow Fragment

Substance Classification: Dark Energy Crystallization

Item Tier: Tier 1

Material Uses: Enchantment (can be used to inflict shadow damage on weapons), Alchemy (basic material for dark witchcraft), Alchemy (necessary material for defending against shadow damage potions), Summon (basic material for summoning shadow creatures)

Special Purpose: Can craft Shadow Crystals (1 Shadow Crystal can be converted into 1 Shadow Crystal per 100 Shadow Fragments through the Alchemy Ritual)

……

There were also a lot of shadow fragments that were densely projected in the back for a wider purpose, but Grim had no intention of paying attention. It's just a Tier 1 wizard material, and it's not worth the effort he spends on it.

Throwing the shadow shard into the storage ring, Grim prepared to move on.

Xu was aware of the power of the comer, and these naturally catalyzed large clouds of shadows quickly gathered together, condensing and condensing into a strange shadow creature that was only the size of a dwarf's head, and its facial features and body shape were not visible all over its body.

And the moment it condensed, a strange and terrifying aura overflowed from its body.

Immediately, the alarm of the chip sounded in Grim's head.

"Drop, Wave of Tier 4 Shadow Creature Detected...... The preliminary analysis is that the shadow assassin has reached a dangerous level of harm to the subject...... Please be vigilant!"

So fast?

Grim was slightly stunned, and his gaze couldn't help but fall on the door behind the shadow creature.

Even if that dark witch Xia Ni was a witch god, it was impossible for her to catalyze a shadow creature of rank 4 in such a short period of time. Unless...... There was some kind of unusually powerful shadow treasure in that dark core, which would otherwise not have been possible with human power alone.

If the other party really has a treasure or witchcraft of this level in their hands, why not use it directly against themselves......? Does it have any usage restrictions or is it a pure accessory?

Grim scanned the rapidly protonaging strange creatures in front of him, and deep down quickly analyzed and judged the secrets in the room.

It's about to face that Tier 4 Dark Witch, how to try your best to dominate the battlefield before the battle begins, and see the opponent's hole cards clearly through everything in front of you. This is what a high-level wizard should do at the beginning of a battle!

But there wasn't much time left for Grim to think and analyze.

Inside the room, the strange fluctuations of the dark core grew stronger and clearer.

No matter what kind of terrorist attack the other party is brewing, or what powerful creature is summoning, Grim has no obligation to wait for the other party to complete it. So, at this moment, no matter what kind of enemy stands in his way, Grim must sweep it away with a thunderbolt and interrupt the dark witch's actions.

Thinking of this, Grim stepped forward without hesitation, and the red light of the fire dragon pendant on his neck flashed, and an unstoppable stream of terrifying flames erupted from his mouth, covering the entire dark corridor in a fan shape.

Among them, of course, also includes the Tier 4 Shadow Assassin who has just catalyzed.

When the front end of the terrifying flame stream broke through the dark barrier and swept around the shadow assassin, the other party disappeared in a strange instant.

Yes, it's disappearing, not flashing.

The battle had exposed Grim to various types of shadow creatures, and although they were proficient in dark spells and had some strange shadow abilities, they still had subtle elemental fluctuations between movement and movement.

If it weren't for the chip assistance, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Grim to capture the shadow jumps or shadow shuttles of this level.

However, when the shadow assassin in front of him disappeared, Grim could not perceive any trace of elemental fluctuations even if he opened his eyes. It is as if it instantly blends into the background of the environment, and it can no longer be traced through the trajectory generated by the change of elements.

The dragon's breath pierced through the dark afterimage left behind by the shadow assassins, setting the entire dark corridor on fire.

But the shadow assassin was nowhere to be found, and his breath was gone.

And just as Grim's fire dragon breath was at the end and his spirit was slightly shaken, a short black figure slid out of the void behind him, and the two pitch-black daggers in his hands stabbed into the back of Grim's heart without the slightest wind and breath fluctuations.

With the spiritual perception of a fourth-order fire witch in Grim, how could he not detect the strange changes that were taking place behind him?

It's just that the other party's movements seem to be light and indifferent, but in the eyes of outsiders, they are as fast as thunder and lightning. Moreover, the two pitch-black daggers were dull and dull, and although they could not perceive any elemental aura on them, they gave people a ruthless taste like peerless murder weapons in the face.

In the face of the swooping shadow assassins, Grim's mind raced, and the Fire Coral wand held high in his hand did not choose defensive sorcery, but chose ...... Offensive.

Two jet-black daggers pierced through the flame barrier, piercing through the lava armor and plunging directly into Grim's vest. They weave through lava flesh and blood, and move through torrents of fire, slicing and churning at great speed, doing their best to inflict maximum damage on Grim.

Grim endured the terrible pain, and instantly struck a red light on the dark body of the shadow assassin.

In the next second, the rich fire element condensed in the void into a substantial shackle of flames, firmly binding the shadow assassin and Grim together.

Flaming Shackles!

A kind of imprisoning fire sorcery.

It can trap enemies with oneself, and if they want to escape, they will have to take three times the fire damage of the sorcery.

The shadow assassin saw that the situation was not good, and he didn't care about hurting Grim again, and wanted to flee from Grim's side with a flicker. Unfortunately, before the black body could melt into the darkness, it was pulled out by the flame shackles that were linked to the body.

Dodging twice, unable to escape, the Shadow Assassin could only wield a pitch-black dagger and frantically sliced and slashed at the flaming shackles.

But with this buffer time, it was enough for Grim to completely lock in its soul fluctuations and elemental aura.

With one left hand, Grim grabbed the neck of the shadow assassin who couldn't escape, and the furious golden flames instantly extended along the arm to the opponent's body. In the next second, the shadow assassin roared and danced wildly, blurring the flesh of Grim's arm and sending flames flying.

However, no matter how serious the damage was, Grim did not let go of his big hand, and the golden flames continued to be injected into the opponent's body.

Finally, eleven years later, the shadow assassin could no longer withstand the scorching flames of the law, and exploded into a black mist in the sky with a bang. In the black mist, a dark and deep black gem fell and was caught by Grim.

Shadow Diamond ...... Tier 4 Shadow Diamond!

Now you can't ignore it as calmly as before.

After all, Tier 4 Shadow Diamonds are hard to find even in the wizarding world.

If the Shadow Fragments are only Tier 1 wizard materials, then 100 Shadow Fragments can be combined into a Tier 2 Shadow Crystal, and 100 Tier 2 Shadow Crystals can be combined into a Tier 3 Shadow Stone, and 100 Tier 3 Shadow Stones can be combined into the Tier 4 Shadow Diamond in front of you.

Legend has it that the Shadow Diamond is the top wizard material in the dark system!

If the Shadow Diamond falls into the hands of a wizard of Hollywood, it may be possible to create the kind of Shadow Golem that can freely travel through the Shadow Realm. This is a Tier 4 Dark Metal Golem that can hide behind its owner's back, protecting him at all times.

If the Shadow Diamond falls into the hands of a summoner, it can summon a Shadow Dragon with a strength of up to Tier 4. It's a swarthy species with razor-sharp claws and shadow wings that breathes shadow flames, somewhere between dragons and shadow creatures.

If the Shadow Diamond falls into the hands of a high-ranking alchemist, it will not be a problem to create a Shadow Scepter that can summon an entire army of shadows. Of course, the strength of the summoned Shadow Legion is also directly related to the alchemist's alchemy attainments.

……

When it comes to shadow diamonds, the chip can list hundreds of opinions on rational use and value maximization to Grim in one go. But now is not the time to talk about it, after all, there is still a terrifying dark witch who has not yet been cleaned up.

Grim put away the Shadow Diamond contentedly, took out a bottle of purple healing potion from his bosom, flicked off the cork and swallowed it. It was only after the huge blood hole behind him was quickly closed under the dual effect of witch medicine and super physique that he stepped forward and gently pushed open the wooden door in front of him.

There is no boundless darkness as far as the eye can see!
