Chapter 1057  Soul Slayer War Arts (Part 2)

Borin, the peak Rank Three Beastkin with the features of a Tiger looked at his destroyed axe with a shocked look on his face.

"This—" Even the Lizardman and the elf, who were Rank Four Core Evolvers were stunned when they saw Evan destroy a mid-level Rank Three axe with just a single attack.

Evan wasn't surprised when the axe was destroyed, as he had already expected it.

The Halberd of Destruction was a weapon filled with the terrifying energy of destruction. Moreover, under the effect of the field created by the Reality Mirror, all the artefacts Borin and the others were holding turned useless, so it was very easy for him to destroy them.

Since the fight had already started, Evan had no intention of letting any of them go.

"Shadow World!"

While the Lizardman and the others were still in a state of shock, he said in a low voice.

The moment he spoke, a black shadow stretched from his feet, instantly covering an area of around one hundred kilometres.

Once it covered the area, the shadow rose towards the sky and turned into a giant black dome that enclosed everyone within.

The Lizardman and the others looked at the black dome and their faces turned serious because they realized their connection with the outside world was completely cut off.

"Bo-boss_" Borin was terrified after Evan destroyed his axe in a single move and looked at the Lizardman with trembling eyes.

The Lizardman didn't answer Borin. Instead, he looked at Evan and, after a moment, spoke in a calm voice.

"You are just a Peak Rank Two Core Evolver, right?"

"Huh?" Borin and Jorvik, the beginner-level Rank Four elf were stunned when they heard the Lizardman.

"So what if I am a Peak Rank Two Core Evolver?" Evan asked in a flat voice, not showing any expression on his face.

Earlier, when he used the Halberd of Destruction to stop Borin's attack, he had to use his power, so his aura was released for a split moment.

Although Jorvik and Borin didn't notice anything, the mid-level Rank Four Lizardman clearly felt it.

Evan was already planning to keep these three people here, so he didn't care even if they found out his rank.

"Boss, are you serious?" Borin asked in a shocked voice when he heard Evan was just a Peak Rank Two Core Evolver.

The Lizardman glanced at Borin from the corner of his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Don't be fooled by his rank. Even if he is just a Rank Two Core Evolver, it doesn't mean he is weak. Moreover..." He looked at the jet-black halberd in Evan's hand and narrowed his eyes. "That weapon is very dangerous. Even though I am a mid-level Rank Four Core Evolver, I still feel a great sense of danger from it."

Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard the Lizardman reminding Borin that he shouldn't underestimate him just because of his rank and nodded his head inwardly, feeling this guy at least had a brain.

Although he felt the Lizardman had a good brain, he did not plan to let them go, so he made his move.

Suddenly, a black aura emerged from the ground and using the power of the Shadow World, Evan immediately teleported far away from the Lizardman and Jorvik, taking Borin with him.

The faces of the Lizardman and Jorvik changed when Evan took Borin away, and they wanted to go after him, but before they could...

Swish!

A bloody aura engulfed their surroundings and the smell of blood assaulted their nostrils.

The Lizardman and Jorvik felt a powerful aura coming from behind them and immediately turned around in shock.

As they turned around, they saw a black demon with purple burning eyes and a blood-red aura staring at them coldly.

"You are not allowed to leave here," Zorda said coldly and the ground around them turned into blood, causing all three of them to sink inside.

Clang! Clang! - - - - -

"Fu*k, what the hell is going on?"

Far away from the place where the ground suddenly turned into blood, the sound of metal clashing against metal rang out, followed by the scared voice of Borin, who was trying to defend himself against the Halberd of Destruction using his sharp tiger-like claws.

Clang!

The Halberd of Destruction once again clashed against Borin's sharp claws and an overwhelming force pushed the Beastkin far away as small cracks appeared on his sharp, metal-like nails that were even harder than ordinary Rank Three materials.

Evan didn't give Borin any chance to catch his breath and continued his relentless assault.

Boom! Boom! Boom! - - - - -

Both of them moved at lightning speed and clashed hundreds of times in just a second, creating thundering shockwaves that turned everything within the Shadow World upside down.

The small stone man, who was trapped within the black cage shuddered like a frightened rabbit and looked in the direction of the battle with fearful eyes.

If it wasn't for the power of the Shadow World suppressing the aftereffects of the battle, the small stone man would have already shattered like fragile glass.

'The increase in power brought by the Halberd of Destruction is truly terrifying. I don't even need to use Shadow Possession to face a Peak Rank Three Core Evolver...' Evan thought to himself as he slashed towards Borin's neck. 'The only problem is the high consumption of Primordial Shadow Energy, but with my current reserves, it's not difficult for me to fight for a long period of time.'

The Halberd of Destruction is an Origin Grade weapon and even though what Evan was using was only a replica, it still required Primordial Shadow Energy to function.

Using his conceptual energy of void and world essence, he couldn't wield the Halberd properly as it demanded a very high amount of energy, so he had to rely on his Primordial Shadow Energy while fighting using it.

Clang!

Shatter!

As the Halberd and Borin's sharp claws collided once again, a shattering sound rang out and Borin's sharp nails were destroyed.

"Arghh," Borin screamed in pain and his beastly eyes glowed with deep yellow light, feeling anger that he was being surpassed by a Peak Rank Two Core Evolver.

"Die, you bastard," He suddenly shouted, slashed with both hands and a terrifying cross-shaped wind blade shot towards Evan at lightning speed.

Evan's eyes narrowed when he saw the wind slash coming towards him and the Halberd of Destruction in his hand glowed with a terrifying golden light of destruction.

"Shatter," He said in a light voice and simply stabbed at the cross-shaped wind slash coming towards him.

The wind slash and the tip of the jet-black halberd came into contact with each other and the next second...

Puff!

The wind slash was blown away like a puff of air and disappeared as if it had never existed.

"What!" Borin was stunned when he saw this, his eyes wide with shock, unable to believe Evan had resolved his attack so easily.

"I think I have played enough with you."

Suddenly, Borin heard Evan's cold voice and saw him holding the Halberd of Destruction with both hands, pointing its tip towards the sky.

"Be honoured, as you are the first one to experience this move after thousands of years," Evan said in a cold voice and the Halberd of Destruction started to glow with black golden light.

Woosh!

A beam of black-golden light shot out of its tip, going straight towards the sky as if it wanted to pierce through it. However, since Evan didn't want to attract any attention, the beam was contained within the Shadow World.

Despite this, the raging sandstorm outside of the Shadow World still trembled because of the presence of the black golden beam and for a moment, everything within a few thousand kilometers of the Shadow World turned deadly silent.

Borin felt an overwhelming pressure and a sense of impending doom engulf his body.

Slowly, Evan shifted the position of the Halberd and pointed its tip towards Borin, who wanted to run but found himself unable to move due to the powerful pressure locking him down.

As Evan pointed the tip of the Halberd towards him, the sense of dread Borin felt reached its peak and when he heard Evan's next words, his blood ran cold.
