Chapter 801 Eldritch Energy Source (Part 2)

??"Damn, now I don't even have the power to lift a finger, but this place..." Evan muttered in a tired voice as he slumped down to the ground once the rift was closed.

After dropping to the ground, he looked around and saw the Eldritch Energy that came out of the rift had spread in an area of more than five hundred kilometres. He was already out of both Primordial Shadow Energy and the World Essence, so it was impossible for him to stay in the place corrupted by the Eldritch Energy for a prolonged period of time.

Moreover, during this entire time, his body was facing the pressure released by the Eldritch Creature.

Earlier, he didn't feel anything because he was trying to think of a way to close the rift, but now that the rift was completely closed, he was finally feeling the aftereffects of facing such great pressure. Every single muscle in his body was screaming in pain, and his blood flow was completely unstable.

"I need to leave before this messed-up Eldritch Energy damages my body even more..." Evan said in a low voice and looked at the deep red tentacle of the creature he had severed. The tentacle was around 20 meters long, and even though it was just a small body part of the Eldritch Creature, it was still releasing a chilling aura.

"This tentacle came from a creature who is probably a Rank Five existence, so it should be quite valuable..." Evan said and put away the tentacle inside his shadow storage.

After putting away the tentacle, he stored away the bodies of the Demons, including their storage rings, and looked at the place where the rift was.

"Fu*king ass*ole, that bastard gobbled down the mid-level Rank Two Demon who probably had quite a few things inside his storage ring," Evan swore with an annoyed look on his face and sat down on the back of the wind and lightning sheep.

Once Evan sat down, wind and lightning circled around the feet of the sheep, and it bolted away.

Five hours later, Evan opened his eyes at the top of a mountain peak and took a deep breath.

"Removing that Eldritch Energy from my body was harder than I expected," He said in a low voice and looked at his shadow undeads who were guarding his surroundings.

After confirming everything was in place, he opened his status window and looked at the notifications that he had received when Gobu opened the dimensional rift.

(Your Shadow Undead Gobu has activated the Unique Skill, Eldritch Horror Dimensional Rift)

(The Eldritch Horror Dimensional Rift is being affected due to the influence of Path To Origin)

"Path To Origin..." Evan narrowed his eyes when he saw these words and organized all the information he had in an instant.

Because of the information that he received when he turned Gobu into a shadow undead, he knows that there are Eldritch Goblins inside the Tomb Of The Ancient.

The Eldritch Goblins came into existence due to the influence of the Eldritch Energy, which means there is definitely a source of Eldritch Energy inside the Tomb Of The Ancient.

Gobu's skill, Eldritch Horror Dimensional Rift allows him to open a rift that connects with a plane that is filled with Eldritch Creatures, and since the rift Gobu opened was influenced because of Path To Origin...

"Could it be this path to origin is somehow related to the source of the Eldritch Energy that is present inside the Tomb Of The Ancient?" Evan asked himself with a deep frown on his face and found it plausible.

"Just what the hell is this path to origin?... And how is it connected with the World Core whose existence I felt in the closed world of Drayds?"

Evan rubbed his forehead and felt a deep headache just thinking about all of these things. Feeling his headache increasing just thinking about these things, he shook his head and stopped thinking.

"Forget it, instead of wasting my time on these things, I should focus on increasing my power while I am still inside the Tomb..." Evan muttered and took out the Soul Lotus from his shadow storage.

The silver-coloured lotus was glowing with a faint light, and now that it was already plucked, it didn't release its spiritual power into the atmosphere when Evan took it out.

"After refining this, I should be able to push my spiritual power to the Beginner Level of Rank Two," Evan said in an excited voice, thinking about how much his Fear skill would grow once he refined the Soul Lotus.

lights??v?l ??m The soul lotus was just a palm-sized flower, so Evan ate it in one go. The moment he chewed the lotus and swallowed it, a vast amount of spiritual energy exploded inside his body, rushing towards his soul.

If it were any normal mid-level Rank One Core Evolver, their body might have exploded due to the vast amount of spiritual energy, but Evan merely flinched in front of the tide of spiritual energy and guided it towards his soul.

A faint white layer of spiritual energy appeared around him as his soul started to absorb the energy like a black hole. The spiritual pressure around Evan started to increase at a rapid speed.

Time continued to move, and after six hours, Evan's spiritual power reached the border of beginner-level Rank Two. Once his spiritual power reached the border of Rank Two, he felt as if a wall was blocking his path.

But under the surge of the soul lotus's spiritual energy, the wall shattered like glass, and Evan's spiritual power easily reached the beginner level of Rank Two.

Surprisingly, even after reaching rank two, the power of the soul lotus didn't disappear and continued to increase his spiritual energy even more.

It took Evan two more hours to absorb the remaining power of the soul lotus. Once he absorbed the remaining power of the lotus, Evan finally opened his eyes as they glowed with the white light of spiritual energy.

"Now if I use the Fear skill, I should be able to influence a beginner-level Rank Two Core Evolver even without using the Shadow Possession skill."
