Chapter 485 Shadow Lord
Camilla watched Xingluo busying around, and couldn't help but feel relieved. He was lucky to have such a powerful ally. After a day, the materials alone were enough for him to fool around for a while without setting up a stall. After realizing how powerful the other party was, Camilla followed Xingluo. After all, this was another world. Even as powerful as he was, he needed to be extremely careful. He had fallen into desperate situations several times because he went to another world to obtain materials.
The starry sky diagram behind Xingluo flashed by, and the magic array diagram had been modified. Although it was a small-scale change, such a fast speed was enough to shock people, especially Camilla, who knew something about this. When she saw Xingluo's fingers poking on the magic array like a phantom, the magic patterns on it changed miraculously. Unlike relying on physical attacks, he used instinctive abyss magic for many years, and he envied those intelligent creatures the most. Now Xingluo seemed to be better than those creatures he once envied the most. This made Camilla want to follow this dark scholar who had brought him several shocks today. Moreover, next to him, even if he was in a terrifying alien world, he didn't seem to need to be so afraid.
Xingluo naturally didn't know what Camilla was thinking. He was currently working hard to improve his combat power, because what he was about to face next were hordes of shadow creatures and cunning shadow demons. If he was careless, he might be doomed. After Xingluo discovered that the shadow creatures were so dense that he couldn't step, he knew that he was close to his destination. Although there was no castle like the sickle demon in front of him, it was too dark here. Even with a light source, it couldn't illuminate a distance of five meters, and it was getting darker and darker. It seemed as if the light source was being swallowed by some invisible creature, shortening little by little, from the initial five meters to the current four meters. Every time he advanced a certain distance, it would become darker and darker. However, Xingluo had never relaxed the coverage of his mental power, so even though they were close, these shadow creatures with weak mental power did not notice anything.
Xingluo took a deep breath, frowned, and his heart beat faster involuntarily. He knew that the shadow demon was ahead. Whether he could leave alive depended on the next battle. Camilla naturally didn't know what Xingluo was thinking. He now felt that Xingluo was omnipotent, so how could he care about these minor anomalies? Now that Xingluo said he was going to hunt the Lord of the Abyss, he would probably believe it unconditionally. Although Camilla was not stupid, he seldom used his brain. He felt that it was too tiring, and his brain would hurt if he moved too much. So he usually used tentacles to solve problems if he could. If not, he would use abyss magic. If still not, he would ask a strong man for help. Xingluo was now a strong man in his eyes.
When the light source was close to one meter, Xingluo finally saw the abyss demon. Although it was still far away, Xingluo's eyesight was very good. This was because he often ate a kind of cooked magic carrot. This was a dish that Aunt Zhang often made for him when he was in Luoshen Village. He vomited for a while, but every time he saw Aunt Zhang's busy figure, he would quietly stuff the magic carrot that he was about to throw away into his mouth. Although he was really tired of eating it, Xingluo still persisted. Therefore, when he was not yet a magician and a knight, his night vision ability was very strong. Later, he often ate monster meat, and with the help of dragon blood, his body had become very abnormal, and naturally his eyesight also improved a lot. Even in this shadow realm, he could see clearly.
The shadow demon was like a ball of pitch-black fog, appearing and disappearing from time to time. It just disappeared from Xingluo's sight suddenly, and reappeared suddenly again. It was extremely strange, as if it could shuttle back and forth between two different spaces. Xingluo knew that this was a phenomenon that would only occur when the dark element was extremely concentrated. This also showed how powerful the opponent was. If the shadow demon's attack power had not been slightly weaker, they would have become a powerful force long ago, and there would be no need for them to stay in this dead silent shadow realm.
Xingluo looked around and found that there was nothing here that could interfere with him and the shadow demon except the shadow creatures. Xingluo glanced at Camilla and found that she was ready, so he did not hesitate and directly covered her with his mental power.
Before the shadow demon could react, the magic circle enveloped it. This time, Xingluo did not deliberately expand the range of the magic circle. He could not stop this group of powerful shadow creatures anyway, so he simply reduced the size of the magic circle and increased its power. His only target was the shadow demon. As for other shadow creatures, he was not afraid of them at all. In any case, when fighting in a group, he would only face the shadow creatures around him.
After the mental shock, the shadow demon's movements became sluggish for a moment, and then he was covered by the magic circle. He then realized that someone had actually attacked his house, but all he could see were two figures shrouded by the faint light in Xingluo's hand. These two creatures actually dared to offend him. Even if he was timid, he would not be scared by these two seemingly extremely weak guys from Xingluo.
Xingluo is not only proficient in time and space and dark magic, but also possesses unique psychic powers. He can use the power of the stars to manipulate the thoughts and perceptions of others. However, his true test is about to come, because he will face an unprecedented crisis. The demon creatures of the Shadow Land, a group of cursed creatures, have been living in this shadow realm for a long time. They are the embodiment of darkness, able to manipulate shadows, devour light, and bring despair and fear. The leader of the shadow creatures, a powerful being called the Shadow Lord, led its army of shadow creatures, ready to tear the two creatures who dared to offend him into pieces and turn them into part of the darkness.
Xingluo had no fear at this moment, as if he had foreseen all this. He knew that he could not resist such a powerful enemy with his own strength. Therefore, he spent a lot of time to construct a complex magic array, and just optimized it for the shadow demon. These magic arrays can enhance his magic power, and most importantly, speed up his magic recovery speed. Although his recovery speed is comparable to that of an intermediate great magician, he is only a high-level magician after all. After a battle, he still has to rely on magic cores to replenish his magic power. When fighting the sickle demon, he exhausted his magic power dozens of times in a battle. Although each time he exhausted and recovered, he felt uncomfortable and wanted to vomit, it made him one step closer to being a great magician.
