Chapter 926 Domain Creation (Part 2)
One and a half hours outside the Time Watch's area and thirty hours inside soon passed and the Time Watch's effect ended.
Even though the effect of the time watch ended, Evan remained motionless, still refining the perfect-level fire domain stone.
It took him six more hours, in addition to the time he spent inside the time watch field to completely refine the domain stone.
Once the domain stone was fully refined, the palm-sized stone in Evan's hand turned into dust and scattered away in the air.
As the domain stone scattered away, Evan slowly opened his eyes and a delightful look flashed on his face.
"Good thing I used this domain stone," He muttered in a low voice. "Because of the knowledge I gained after refining it, I can at least halve the time it takes to create my domain."
Evan stood up from the ground and looked at the bronze-coloured time watch in his hands.
"Four days of cooldown time, huh..." He said to himself and shook his head. "A cooldown time of four days is not long; besides, this cooldown time will decrease even more once I evolve the Time Watch into a Rank Two artefact."
He put away the time watch inside his shadow storage and walked towards Biscuit, who was lying on the ground with Elora sleeping on top of its back.
'Come back,' He sent a message to all of his shadow undeads using the Shadow Senses and soon all of them returned.
Once they returned, Evan sent all of them back inside the shadow storage and patted Biscuit's head, waking the lazy bird from its slumber.
"Let's go; we already wasted a lot of time here," He said in a low voice and jumped on its back. Novel Fire - novelfire.net
Biscuit nodded its head upon hearing Evan, unfolded its giant black wings, and with a single flap, soared towards the sky, heading straight towards the central area of the first layer where the pillar of half golden and half black light was located.
As Biscuit flew towards the pillar of light, Evan thought about creating his domain, but after a moment of deep thinking, he decided to wait until he reached the central area of the first layer.
"Creating a domain is a very risky task, and if I try to create it now and get interrupted by a monster in the middle of it, all of my efforts will go to waste," Evan thought aloud and looked at Elora, who was sleeping beside him.
"I should wait till we reach the safe place Elora talked about before I create my domain."
If Evan were in the third or second layer of the Tomb, he could have chosen any place to create his domain, as his shadow undeads and Biscuit could easily handle the monsters of the third and second layers.
But the first layer is different; there are many mid-level and even peak Rank Three monsters here. Even under the protection of Biscuit and his shadow undeads, these monsters can reach him and interrupt him while he creates his domain.
Normally, when people fail during the process of creating their domain, most of the time, their core would be seriously damaged and they wouldn't be able to create their domain until they fully healed their core.
At the same time, they wouldn't be able to use their abilities to their full potential because of the damaged core.
In reality, Evan was not worried about this backlash. He was confident that due to the abnormality of his Primordial Monarch Core, even if he failed to create his domain, his core wouldn't receive any kind of damage.
However, just because his core wouldn't be damaged didn't mean he wanted to take unnecessary risks. Considering he was heading towards the centre of the first layer, the chances of encountering mid or even peak-level Rank Three monsters were very high. If that happened, he would have to stop creating his domain midway to deal with those monsters.
Instead of wasting time trying to create a domain that he might have to stop creating mid-way, he decided it was better to wait until he reached the safe place Elora had mentioned when he asked her about the area around the pillar of light.
"Skill domain, huh..." Evan muttered in a low voice and closed his eyes, thinking about the three void skills he had comprehended while transforming his world essence into the conceptual energy of void.
Eight days later...
"This place is really messed up..." Evan said with a frown on his face as he looked at three mid-level Rank Three monsters that looked like black wolves in front of him.
"Elora, how far is the safe place you mentioned?" Evan asked in a low voice, looking at Elora, who stood beside him.
Elora pondered for a while upon hearing Evan and after a few seconds, she said in a voice filled with certainty, "It should be around twenty thousand kilometres away in that direction."
Evan looked in the direction Elora was pointing and sighed upon seeing the three mid-level Rank Three wolves also in that direction.
Although he was irritated by his situation, he didn't lose his composure, as it wasn't the first time he was facing a situation like this. During the previous eight days, he had encountered many similar situations and successfully avoided them.
Once Elora confirmed the direction of the safe location, Evan used his shadow senses to send a message. A few minutes after Evan sent the message, the ears of the three sleeping wolves suddenly perked up, and all three of them raised their heads, looking to their right.
Upon looking there, the eyes of all three wolves turned cold as they saw thousands of black-coloured Rank One and Rank Two monsters, along with a large army of skeletons coming towards them.
Howl! Howl! Howl!
Seeing so many low-level monsters daring to enter their territory, all three of them howled at the same time and instantly appeared in front of the army of shadow undeads.
ROAR! ROAR!------
The shadow undead of the dragons, who were at the front of the army roared madly upon seeing the wolves and charged towards them, followed by the attacks of the other shadow undeads.
The mid-level Rank Three wolves just sneered when they saw the attacks, and with a flash, all three of them disappeared from their positions and appeared in the middle of the army of shadow undeads.
BOOOOOM! CRACKLE! - - - - - -
Different kinds of attacks filled the surroundings as a large-scale fight broke out between the three mid-level Rank Three wolves and the shadow undeads.
Evan looked at the fight from a distance, and upon seeing that the way towards the place Elora pointed out was clear, he picked up the red-haired girl in his arms and took a step forward.
The moment he took a step forward, the boots he was wearing flashed with silver-white light and he disappeared from the spot using the Step of Voidgazer skill of his boots.
---) Step of Voidgazer: When the wearer activates this skill, they gain the ability to step into the void and traverse vast distances in mere seconds, teleporting from one point to another. The maximum distance you can travel using this skill is five thousand kilometers and this skill can be used four times a day.
Using the Step of Voidgazer, Evan appeared five thousand kilometres away in an instant, but he didn't stop there and used the ability of the boots three more times.
Because the wolves were busy fighting against his shadow undeads, they were not able to sense him and Evan successfully appeared twenty thousand kilometres away.
"Father, look over there. That's the place I was talking about," Elora suddenly said in an excited voice, pointing in front of them.
Evan looked in the direction Elora was pointing and saw a small cave at the bottom of a mountain.
"Are you talking about that cave?" He asked upon noticing the cave.
"Yes."
Hearing the positive response from Elora, Evan didn't waste any time and instantly rushed towards the cave.
The cave was not far away, so he reached it in less than a minute. Once he stopped in front of the cave, he noticed its entrance was covered by a golden-coloured barrier, blocking his way.
Evan wanted to ask Elora about the barrier, but before he could, the red-haired girl jumped down from his arms and pulled him towards the cave entrance, passing through the golden-coloured barrier along with him without any problem.
