Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 803 Essence Spring (Part 2)

Woosh!

A sharp wind blade tore through the air and cut down the body of an S-rank salamander into two halves.

As the blood and internal organs of the salamander gushed out, a black sheep leapt into the air and passed above the dead salamander without stopping.

Atop the black sheep, an average-looking man with grey hair was sitting. When the sheep leapt above the salamander, the man stretched out one of his fingers, and a small black hole formed at the tip of his finger, absorbing a multicoloured orb that appeared above the salamander after its death.

Crackle!

With the sound of lightning crackling, the sheep landed hundreds of meters away from the dead salamander and continued to move forward.

"We are almost there..." The grey-haired man who was actually Evan, said while looking at a small mountain in front of him.

He was heading to the location of the essence spring that he saw in Goliath's device. Before going there, he changed his appearance so that he wouldn't have to start a needless fight against the people who would try to catch him due to the bounty on his head.

Although he wanted to spread the news about himself as he had a plan in mind, it was not the right time for that.

According to the message he saw in Goliath's device, many people gathered near the essence spring to destroy the barrier covering it. If he started a fight against them, it would affect the plan he had in mind.

Soon, the wind and lightning sheep reached the small mountain, and with a single leap, it appeared at the top of it.

"Alright, stop," Once at the top of the mountain, Evan dismounted the sheep and summoned it back inside his shadow storage.

After summoning back the sheep, he looked ahead and saw many people gathered a few hundred kilometres away from the bottom of the mountain.

"Hmmm... The number of people is higher than I expected, and I can even feel the auras of two peak Rank Two Evolvers," Evan muttered in a low voice as he looked at the gathering of people.

According to his estimation, there were nearly thirty people. This number was not small considering the Tomb was quite big and people were scattered to different locations.

While looking at the gathered people, Evan suddenly noticed something and narrowed his eyes.

"So that is the essence spring, huh..." He said to himself as he noticed a small milky white pond that looked like a hot spring.

The pond was fifty meters in diameter and was covered in a transparent golden barrier. Even from a distance of hundreds of kilometres, he could feel that the barrier was quite sturdy and difficult to deal with.

"Now I understand why they were calling more people here..." Evan muttered and finally realized Goliath received that message because the people gathered here needed more manpower to break the barrier. At the same time, another question rose inside his mind.

"Why are these people not attacking the barrier?"

Goliath had received the message nearly two hours ago, so although Evan decided to come here, he had expected that the people might have already destroyed the barrier that surrounded the essence spring. But looking at the area around the spring, he could tell that people didn't try to attack the barrier even once.

"Just what are these people thinking?" Evan muttered in a low voice and jumped down from the mountain.

His body descended toward the ground at rapid speed, and just before he was about to hit the ground, green wind circled around his body, and he calmly landed on the ground. After landing, he moved towards the gathering of people.

While moving towards the people, Evan noticed that all the people present there were in groups, except for one man.

The person who was alone was one of the peak Rank Two Core Evolvers whose presence he felt earlier.

The man had two light purple horns on top of his head, short deep black hair, green eyes, and was wearing a light golden robe. His hands were covered in light purple scales, and Evan could tell that the man was definitely not a normal Rank Two Core Evolver.

'From his appearance, it seems he is a dragon,' Evan said inwardly, looking at Voidscar, who was standing some distance away from the barrier with an indifferent look on his face.

As he walked further, the people standing near the barrier also noticed him, and their eyes turned strange upon seeing him. Evan wasn't surprised when people looked at him strangely, as he already expected this.

Although there were some mid-level Rank One Core Evolvers just like him, all of them were with companions as it was quite dangerous for a mid-level Rank One Core Evolver to move in the Tomb alone.

Moreover, there were many rank two evolvers present there, so it was quite strange for a mid-level Rank One evolver to approach them, considering the fact that it wasn't uncommon for people to kill others in the Tomb.

On top of that, the way Evan was walking and his expression made it clear that he didn't care about the people gathered there and wasn't afraid of them.

'Now, whom should I ask why they are not attacking the barrier?' Evan thought after stopping and glanced at the people who were still looking at him with strange eyes.

"Ha! We are still thinking about how to deal with the barrier but there is already a beggar who came to watch the show and reap the benefits..." As Evan was pondering about whom he should ask for information, he heard a voice and saw a black-

skinned guy with bulging muscles coming towards him.

Seeing the appearance of the guy who was approaching him, Evan's eyes widened.

"Guess I really have a deep connection with these guys" Evan muttered in a low voice as another extreme demon stopped in front of him.
