Chapter 548: Chapter 507: High Mountain Trial (Two in One) Chapter 548: Chapter 507: High Mountain Trial (Two in One) [Shadow Guard]

Truly powerful beings, even in death, cannot erase the traces of their existence; the shelter provided by the Elder of Shadows can suppress vampiric dark creatures entering the range of the Hunter’s Cabin.

Those below Third Tier will directly lose their combat ability, the strength of Third Tier Transcendents will be reduced by 50%, and Fourth Tier will be weakened by 20%!

At the same time, during combat, they will continuously lose Essence Blood from their bodies, and energy feedback can temporarily enhance the Demon Hunter’s recovery abilities.

“The Elder of Shadows’ suppression of vampiric creatures is truly terrifying. This is after his death; had he been alive, even Fourth Tiers would probably not dare to raise their heads before him.”

Roger continued to read on.

[Shadow Resurrection]

By consuming Shadow’s Power or one’s own Essence Blood, it is possible to activate the Elder of Shadows who exists as a Guardian Spirit.

Control his corpse to fight!

This Guardian Spirit does not possess consciousness, nor can it cast any spells, but rest assured, his body is the most powerful weapon.

Although the body is dead, please avoid excessive slaughter, as the Elder of Shadows drenched in fresh blood is exceedingly likely to transform into another kind of creature.

Remember, this is a being whose existence cannot be completely erased by death.

“This ability…”

Roger’s breath hitched for a moment. Frankly, he was unclear about the Elder of Shadows’ actual combat power, but combining the earlier description of the Shadow Guard,

as well as the immense sense of hierarchical pressure, it wasn’t difficult for Roger to guess how powerful this broken body must have been when it was alive.

While devouring the Shadow World, Roger had briefly made contact with a remnant of consciousness from the corpse of the Elder of Shadows.

Had it not been for the protection of the Hunter’s Cabin, Roger’s spiritual power would have likely been lost amidst the other’s vast and overwhelming presence.

Frankly speaking, Roger could not fully comprehend the battle that occurred before the death of the Elder of Shadows, but the intensity and impact of that fight had left a deep impression on him.

“Should I give it a try?”

With this thought in mind, Roger pushed open the room door and walked into the garden.

In the middle of the garden, there originally was a large fountain. But what appeared before him now was that figure with a pale complexion, hunched over.

Having obtained the method to awaken the Elder of Shadows from his mind, Roger extended his right hand, and invisible black mist flowed into it from the void.

This was the Shadow’s Power accumulated in this space, it possessed no offensive capability, yet it was the special energy that maintained the existence of this space.

Clack!

Roger’s hand grasped the iron staff that impaled the Elder of Shadows.

To be honest, with Roger’s current knowledge, he had no way to discern the material on the metal; he couldn’t even identify the original color of the metal.

It was only now that he had time to carefully observe the natural pattern on the metal. The dark color that appeared was not its original hue.

It seemed to be…

Roger instantly understood something.

This was the blood of the Elder of Shadows!

When his body was pierced, the blood that had automatically adhered from within the Elder of Shadows!

After who knows how many years, the blood had coagulated and deteriorated, even completely becoming another substance under the influence of this space.

While his mind pondered, Roger’s hands did not stop their motion.

Wrapped in the power of the shadows, he slowly, ever so slowly, pulled out the weapon that impaled the body of the Elder of Shadows.

“Hah…”

A strange and deep voice came through, and for a moment, Roger even thought that this terrifying creature had come back to life. But soon he realized that what he heard was merely the sound of the body rubbing against the metal and the weird noise made as its torso straightened.

The stooped and aged figure became straight.

The hollow eyes still lacked any glint of consciousness, yet in this instant, Roger felt as if the corpse had come alive!

“Phew…”

“Such an immense sense of oppression.”

Roger released his hand, and the Shadow’s Power disappeared, and the weapon pierced the Elder of Shadows’ body once again.

The corpses gathered at his feet also stopped their agitation.

In just a few seconds, Roger actually discovered a layer of fine sweat on his back.

But soon he started to smile happily.

“Heh, this could be considered the strongest trump card.”

Roger quietly estimated that the strongest Transcendent he had encountered so far was the Burly Man who had pursued Green that day.

But even that guy was definitely no match for the corpse of the Elder of Shadows.

However, the scenario seemed somewhat off.

As the Guardian Spirit obtained after devouring the Shadow World, the Elder of Shadows could not leave the covered range of the Shadow Cottage.

In other words, if Roger wanted to use the Shadow Resurrection ability, he had to be within the area of the Shadow Cottage.

“Others summon their teachers and fathers during battle, but for me…”

Roger expressed his helplessness.

“Summoning a house seems a bit strange, doesn’t it?”

Beyond these two abilities, there was another named Ancient Descent, which currently seemed to be inactive.

Judging from its literal meaning, Roger guessed it probably allowed borrowing a part of the Elder of Shadows’ power to enhance one’s own.

But the specifics still required further exploration.

With a thought in his heart, the corpse of the Elder of Shadows slowly sank into the ground, leaving a vacant space in the middle of the garden.

As long as it was under the influence of the Hunter’s Cabin, then through Shadow Assimilation ability, this object could naturally also appear in the real world.

But Roger thought it might be necessary to create some cover for it in the real world.

He stroked his chin, an idea bubbling up in his mind.
