Volume 2 Tales of the Night Chapter 37 Prince of Shadows

"What the hell is going on?" When Bai Ye discovered the "Sealing Shadow Enchantment", he knew that the castle was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, but he could only guess what happened specifically, and it was impossible to see everything.

So, the Prince of Shadows slowly recounted the past: "Among the Great Thousand Races, our Shadow Race is born with the ability to cross space, and some tangible beings who have mastered the talent of space and the knowledge of shadow summoning will occasionally summon shadows through specific means, allowing us to cross the void and descend directly into the plane. But if you want to summon a high shadow, you must offer a sacrifice, and the best sacrifice is the soul of the summoner. Seven plane days ago, a powerful and special soul communicated with me, willing to give his soul, calling me to help it once. I was intrigued by this soul and answered its call. ”

"However, this summoning was a well-orchestrated trap. After I located the summoner's soul, it abandoned its body and used self-destruction to tear apart the unstable spatial nodes, using its soul to travel through the rift in time and space and enter this wonderful plane. This place is merging with the planes of another time and space, producing an unstoppable force of rules, capable of suppressing the power of all strong people. After I followed that soul here, I was also suppressed by the rules. That soul first planted this shadow barrier, sealed my movements, and then used other knowledge to steal my origin power, opening up an independent mirror space, which has been hidden in the mirror space, using my origin to combine shadow and corrupt power, in a vain attempt to create an irresistible army to conquer this plane. ”

"It is still hiding in its own inner world, where it has planted an evil soul golem circle and imprisoned my shadow origin in the circle to control my movements. As long as I'm not blocked from action, I can't resist it. However, your arrival has turned all this around. During the time I lurked in your shadow, the power of the Shadow Pupil repaired part of my origin, and though it was only a small one, it allowed me to act on my own for the time being. And your friend who controls the Light has used the power of the Light to destroy many Shadow Ghosts and wound me, and the consumption of Shadow Power has temporarily stopped the Soul Golem Circle, so I am temporarily free from its surveillance. ”

"Now, you have reactivated this barrier, I deliberately entered the barrier, although I was sealed, but I was completely out of its gaze, so I can talk to you. However, my Shadow Source is still under its control, and I cannot do anything against it, or even reveal its information to you. So, I can only ask you to destroy that soul and return me to the void. ”

It took a long time for Bai Ye to digest the words of the Prince of Shadows, he thought about it carefully, and said, "Even if you don't say it, I can guess where that guy is from. Such a disgusting thing must have come from Isopia. What makes me wonder is that since it has abandoned its body, how can its soul not dissipate and still make waves here? Forget it, you can't tell me anyway, so I'd better ask it myself. You can't reveal its information, but you should be able to help me enter that inner world, after all, it is a space opened up through your power, and helping me in is not a summoner who directly endangers you, I think this is the purpose of your meeting with me? ”

The Prince of Shadows smiled, and he said, "You are very clever, master of the Shadow Pupil. As he spoke, a deep black light cluster suddenly appeared on its hand, and the shadows in that light cluster had been condensed to the extreme, so much so that a halo even appeared around it! This is the phenomenon that the extremes of things must be opposed, and it can be said that this light cluster is the purest shadow power that Bai Ye has ever seen.

The Prince of Shadows stretched out his palm and said to the White Night, "This is my last bit of Shadow Origin, and I will give it to you." The Shadow Pupil can absorb it, and then you can enter the half-plane. It's not a lot of power, but it's just right for you, and your body is too weak to digest more. Absorbing my Shadow Origin will increase your Shadow Power and help you understand something about space, which is also a reward for helping me. ”

Bai Ye took this extremely deep shadow light cluster in disbelief, and was still thinking about whether he should believe the words of the Shadow Prince, but when the shadow pupil between his eyebrows looked at the light cluster, an indescribable desire suddenly filled Bai Ye's consciousness, and that strong desire to devour was almost comparable to a higher evolutionary seed, and the evolutionary instinct of life reminded Bai Ye that he needed this kind of power.

So Bai Ye no longer hesitated, and pasted this black halo on his forehead, and the halo touched the Shadow Pupil, like the blood of the same root, quickly fused together, and finally all of them were sucked into the Shadow Pupil.

From the Shadow Pupil, Hakuya felt extreme pleasure, a feeling that Hakuya had only felt when he had evolved. However, compared to devouring the seed of evolution, although the current strength of the white night has increased again, it is not as reborn as evolution, and the biggest change comes from his perception of the power of the shadow and the entire world.

For example, the Prince of Shadows in front of him, the previous White Night could only see that he was composed of shadows, but except for the different colors, the details were exactly the same as those of humans. Now, however, Hakuya could clearly distinguish the lines and flowing trajectories of each shadow, and could even discern the subtle differences between the shadows that made up his body and the shadows that made up his clothes.

And for the understanding of space, he has also taken a step further, now he can find the anchor point of the half-dimensional space, although he is still unable to break the anchor point and enter the half-plane for the time being, but he can accurately locate the enemy of the shallow half-plane, and if he encounters monsters like shadow ghosts in the future, he can catch them out without waiting for them to take the initiative to appear and attack.

Specifically, the current white night can be more micro-observant of the world, and you can see a more realistic side of the world. This kind of ability, even when Bai Ye was upgraded to the second order in his previous life, he didn't have it.

And the absolute strength of the white night is not without growth, the power contained in the shadow pupil has increased greatly, while the spiritual power consumed by the shadow ray has decreased correspondingly, although it is still impossible to release the ray as much as you want, but at least in a short period of time, you don't have to worry about the problem of energy exhaustion. Moreover, the power and range of the Shadow Ray have also increased a lot, although there is still a lot of gap compared to the "Shadow Aurora" in the second order, but among the first-order evolutionaries, there is almost no one to stop it.

The Prince of Shadows smiled and looked at the white night, and said, "That's all I can help, and the rest is up to you." I must stay in this barrier or I'll be controlled by it. ”

Bai Ye nodded: "Thank you, I'll leave it to me later." Goodbye! ”

After speaking, Bai Ye's eyes darkened, and the clouds of those shadows disappeared in an instant, and he suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and reappeared in the "Sealing Shadow Enchantment".

The Prince of Shadows was gone, and the ground in the barrier had been filled with flowing shadows. In the eyes of others, it is a deep shadow everywhere, but Bai Ye clearly saw a smiling face in the shadows, as if from a flat pattern, the hidden three-dimensional figure was distinguished.

So Bai Ye nodded to the Prince of Shadows, his mind moved slightly, and the shadow mark on Han Xue's hand outside the enchantment immediately began to get hot, which was the signal that Bai Ye had made an appointment with her, so Han Xue pulled out the magic energy crystal in her corner, and a gap suddenly appeared in the enchantment, Bai Ye resolutely stepped out of the gap, and Han Xue inserted the crystal again, and the light flashed in the enchantment again.

The six people outside looked at Bai Ye one after another, and Feng Hua asked, "Are you okay?" Did you succeed in sealing the monster? ”

Bai Ye smiled: "Not only is it okay, but it is a blessing in disguise." But it's a long story, and I'll tell you the details later. Now I'm going to solve the problem of the castle once and for all, so please watch here, as long as you keep the barrier running. The 'Sealing Shadow Enchantment' doesn't consume much magical energy, and there is no problem with these six crystals holding on until dawn. At that time, it should all be over. ”

Feng Hua said worriedly: "Do you still go by yourself?" ”

Bai Ye smiled bitterly: "It's not that I'm a hero this time, but for some reason, only I can enter that place, even if I want to take you with me, I can't do it." Rest assured, I've got new strength to be able to cope. ”

With that, he smiled at the others and walked out of the attic.

As for the location of the inner world, Bai Ye has a fixed number in his heart. When they first entered the castle, Monica was captured by an unknown monster, and at the beginning of the White Night, they thought it was the Prince of Shadows. Now it seems that she must have been captured by the enemy behind the scenes, so they almost went around the castle during the White Night, and found no trace of Monica.

Although the ancient mirror was shattered by Ji Yunfei, it didn't matter, because there was an identical mirror in this ancient castle, even if this mirror was destroyed, Bai Ye still had a way, just find something about the same size that could reflect the image.

Of course, the first choice is the mirror in the underground warehouse, although the staircase was destroyed by the white night, but the one that can trap the shadow flesh beast is not difficult for the white night. He jumped down the destroyed staircase to a depth of more than ten meters, and as soon as he entered the warehouse, he saw the mirror.

There were also a dozen shadow flesh beasts scattered around the mirror, the same ones that had escaped the flames before. The vitality of these flesh beasts is extremely tenacious, and they are very difficult monsters. But the white night is no longer what it used to be, as soon as the pupil of the shadow opens, the vein-like shadow energy flowing in the flesh beast's body is clearly presented in front of him, so the white night dances "Soul Cutting", easily cutting off their shadow core, after the shadow power dissipates, these flesh beasts are like humans who have lost their skeletons and become a real rotten meat!

The reason why "Soul Cutting" can destroy the Shadow Core is because of the blessing of the Shadow Power, which is also a new ability that the Shadow Pupil has obtained after absorbing the Shadow Origin.

The evil shadow undead in the castle could no longer stop the white night, and he easily returned to the antechamber of the castle with the ancient mirror.
