Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 921 Time Liquid, Broken Time Watch And The Central Area Of The First Layer (Part 5)

"Twenty eight days..." Evan shouted with a stunned look on his face and glanced at the cave behind him.

'Damn, I knew the Time Liquid was messing with the flow of time inside the cave, but to think 28 days passed while I was in there for less than three hours...' He thought inwardly while rubbing his eyebrows.

"Now I don't even have 20 days before the Tomb closes..." Evan said with a sigh, feeling a headache coming on.

He took out the map of the tomb from his shadow storage and saw it would take him around seven days to reach the central area of the first layer of the Tomb, and this time would increase even more if he encountered high-level monsters along the way.

"What a pain..." He muttered in an annoyed voice and put the map back inside his shadow storage. After putting away the map, he took a deep breath to calm down and thought about his next move.

After a few minutes of deep thinking, he finally made up his mind and sat down on the ground while holding the Time Watch in his hands.

"Let's reach the 25% mark first, and I will create my domain while moving towards the central area of the first layer..." He said and released his shadow undeads from his shadow storage.

From Elora's explanation, he knew that there were many monsters around the pillar of light, and it would be very difficult for him to approach it.

In order to enter the pillar of light, he would have to sneak past many monsters and it would definitely consume a lot of time.

Previously, he was confident that with enough planning and using his shadow undeads as a distraction, he would be able to enter the pillar of light. But now that he had suddenly lost 28 days and didn't even have a full month left, he needed to change his plans. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to reach the central area of the first layer before the Tomb closed.

'Create my domain, increase my powers even further, and if possible, evolve my domain into a zone so that I can become a beginner-level rank two core evolver before the Tomb closes...' Evan thought inwardly with a sharp light flashing in his eyes as he considered a few things that could help him achieve his desired result.

"Although difficult, it is not impossible," He said and looked at the thousands of shadow undeads around him.

'If I reach beginner-level rank two, I will be able to create peak rank two shadow undeads and with their help, it won't be hard to reach the pillar of light,' He thought while taking a deep breath and holding the Time Watch in his hands with a determined look.

"Spread out and don't let anyone disturb me," He ordered his shadow undeads and all of them instantly spread throughout the area.

Once his shadow undeads were spread out, Evan looked at the little red-haired girl beside him.

"Elora, do you want to stay here or play with your Uncle Biscuit?"

"I will stay with you, Father," Elora said without hesitation and sat beside him.

Evan smiled upon hearing Elora and patted her head.

"If you feel bored, you can go and play with Uncle Biscuit, alright?"

"Hmmm," Hearing Evan, Elora nodded her head and closed her eyes, enjoying the pats like a cat.

Seeing her happy expression, Evan's eyes softened and he took a deep breath.

'If I want to take Elora with me out of the Tomb of the Ancient, I need to go inside that pillar of light no matter what.'

The Tomb of the Ancient opens for three months, once every ten years. After the period of three months ends, the Tomb will teleport every single person who entered it to the outside world.

Evan will also be sent back to the closed world of Drayds, but Elora is an exception. She has been living inside the Tomb for who knows how many years, and unlike other people, she wouldn't be sent out of the Tomb.

Although Evan wasn't sure what his real relationship with Elora and the pillar of light located in the centre of the first layer was, he had a feeling that if he wanted to take her outside of the Tomb with him, he would have to go there.

'The strange connection my soul felt with Elora when she released that blackish-red aura and the reaction of the pillar of light at that time...' Evan thought about the time he first met Elora and suddenly a strange thought came to his mind.

'I hope I am just overthinking and it's not true...' He said inwardly and shook his head to clear his mind.

He looked at the Time Watch in his hand and, after taking a deep breath, activated it.

The moment he activated the Time Watch, a blob of transparent white energy came out of the small watch and covered an area of twenty meters around him.

Evan tried to sense the difference between the flow of time inside the field created by the Time Watch using his spiritual senses but found it was not easy to understand what was happening as he wasn't proficient in the conceptual energy of time.

'Well, whatever, I should just focus on increasing my understanding of the void energy for the time being,' He said to himself and used the Void Study skill of the Boots of Voidgazer along with the second void skill that he comprehended, Void Senses.

Time continued to move and soon, three and a half hours passed for Biscuit and his shadow undeads who were guarding the surroundings.

Although only three and a half hours passed for Biscuit and the shadow undeads, for Evan it had been almost three days.

Suddenly, Evan, who was sitting with his eyes closed opened his eyes, which were flashing with deep purple-coloured void energy and two notifications flashed before him.

(Your understanding of Void Energy reached 25%)

(You can't increase your understanding of Void Energy anymore before you create a Domain.)
