Chapter 1167: Shadow World!

Chapter 1167: Shadow World!

“Lord, what should I tell the powerhouses of the South Coast when I leave this place?

Surely, they will want to know what happened, especially after the deaths of the three Stellar Abyss Legends,” Lord Zero asked, his voice steady but with an undercurrent of concern.

Cain pondered for a moment before responding.

“Tell them it was a humanoid figure, thirty-five meters tall, cloaked in shadows.

Describe its battle style as focusing on powerful melee strikes and shadow-based evocation spells.

As for how you escaped, we’ll say the dimension collapsed due to my injuries and the intensity of the battle.” Lord Zero nodded in agreement, satisfied with the explanation.

They couldn’t leave the South Coast Alliance’s powerhouses without any information-that would be far too suspicious.

The old man waved his hand, producing a small gem from his spatial ring.

Cain’s eyes sharpened as his Golden Eyes revealed a massive golden aura emanating from the gem.

“This is an ancient treasure I discovered long ago,” Lord Zero explained.

“It will cover me in a starlight force and flash me to safety.” Though he had no desire to use the treasure, they needed a plausible reason for why he alone survived while the others perished.

“Once you open the exit of the dimension, I will use it to escape.

There will surely be witnesses in the city-proxies from the powerful houses and clans of the alliance-who will see me fleeing.” Despite keeping his identity hidden, Lord Zero knew the strongest powerhouses of the South Coast Alliance were aware of his general whereabouts, as they regularly communicated with him.

He was sure that, following the sudden disappearance of the old man and three Stellar Abyss Legends, the powerhouses of the South Coast Alliance would know something had happened.

He needed to put on a convincing show.

Cain nodded, impressed with the old man’s resourcefulness.

“Perfect.

We will do that.

Now, tell me everything you know about the South Coast Alliance’s powerhouses and how I can reach them.” Without hesitation, Lord Zero began recounting every detail, secret, and vulnerability of the South Coast Alliance.

He even helped Cain formulate a plan to take them down, ensuring their disappearances would go unnoticed for as long as possible.

— The sky above the city swarmed with hundreds of Sky Lords and over a dozen Dark Seed Legends, their presence stirring curiosity and concern among the people below.

The sudden disappearance of three Stellar Abyss Legends was shocking but not enough to warrant this level of mobilization.

Whispers spread through the crowd, many speculating that perhaps the real reason for the commotion was tied to the old man who had been targeted by the shadowy entity.

Thousands of eyes were focused on the area where Lord Zero had vanished.

The region was now evacuated and heavily guarded as Dark Seed Legends scoured the site, using all manner of treasures and powerful abilities in their search for answers.

Despite their efforts, no one could find any clues.

Then, without warning, the vortex of darkness reappeared, sending ripples of shock through the assembled Sky Lords and Legends.

Before anyone could react, a figure emerged from the swirling shadows.

It was an old man, covered in starlight, dashing away into the distance at a speed so great that even the Legends’ eyes struggled to keep track of him.

The Legends exchanged looks of confusion, quickly reaching for their treasures and sending out urgent messages to their leaders.

But before they could act, another figure stepped out of the vortex.

This time, it was not the old man but an entity whose overwhelming killing intent flooded the sky, chilling the air and freezing everything in its wake.

“ROAR!” With a roar that seemed to shake the heavens, the humanoid figure cloaked in shadows moved with terrifying speed, appearing before a nearby Dark Seed Legend.

The Legend instinctively drew his sword, swinging it down toward the figure, but before the blade could fall, a clawed hand shot out, gripping his wrist with unyielding force.

Cain’s eyes, glowing with cold malice, locked onto the Legend’s.

With a single strike of his index finger, he punctured the Legend’s chest, blasting a hole straight through it.

The shadowy tendrils surrounding Cain surged forward, engulfing the Legend entirely, leaving nothing behind as the man vanished into the abyss.

Silence fell over the Sky Lords and Legends who had witnessed the scene, their hearts seized by terror.

The ease with which this shadowy figure had killed a Dark Seed Legend was enough to chill them to their very core.

A single thought surged through their minds: RUN.

Panic set in immediately.

The Legends and Sky Lords scattered, fleeing in all directions.

They had been summoned to investigate the old man’s disappearance, but none expected to face such a monster.

Cain watched them flee, his cold gaze sweeping over the chaos.

He knew he couldn’t chase after them all, but he didn’t need to.

His time within the Glass Dome had been productive; aside from gathering intelligence on the South Coast Alliance, Cain had tuned his abilities.

The powers he had obtained from the Stellar Abyss Legends-Abyssal Energy, Diamond Skin, and Explosive Energy-had all been devoured through Scarlet Reaper.

Those abilities didn’t perfectly align with his battle style or offer any advantage he did not already have, so Cain used their energy to enhance Shadow Master.

Cain focused inward, visualizing the metaphysical representation of Shadow Master.

It was a force of pure darkness, a vicious energy that could manifest and control shadows at will, with the power to engulf and crush anything within its reach.

The Shadow Master Legendary Innate Ability had evolved beyond its previous limits, now reaching the Void Eclipse Tier!

“Shadow World!” Cain’s voice boomed as he channeled the entirety of his newly enhanced Shadow Master.

Instantly, the shadows across the city trembled, their forms shifting and surging with newfound power.

The shadows coalesced into a massive dome in mere moments, blanketing the entire city in darkness.
