Master of the End Times

Chapter 976 - Shadow Split



Chapter 976: Shadow Split

Qin Feng was quick in acting.

This was the third time he had come across the behemoth. He promptly erased his presence to hide from the pursuing specter, then probed carefully with his consciousness.

However, when he reached the source of the howl, Qin Feng was disappointed to find that it did not come from the behemoth. Instead, it was an inflated specter.

The specter was at least twenty-meter-high. It did not appear to have a special skill or unmatching speed. Nonetheless, it could constantly release specter minions out of its body. One of the SS-tiers was fighting it while the other S-tiers were diverting the minions. It was apparent that they did not fight in accord with one another. Most of them only gave minimal effort.

‘The enlarged specter must have something valuable, like dragon blood, hidden in it. Otherwise, the SS-tier, who is not a dark type, wouldn’t have thrown himself to it. He would gain nothing even if he killed the specter with this much effort.’

Even if the item did not suit or could not be used by the SS-tier, it could always be used as a trading chip later on.

Qin Feng had learned that though the energy cube was the default currency in the Human Alliance, items of exceptional tier could be exchanged with another type of currency, which was the sacred stone.

Qin Feng was considered wealthy after he had obtained more than three thousand sacred stones in a previous encounter. However, he did not use any of the stones to purchase anything. After all, very few arts could outperform Asteroid Assimilation.

He reckoned the SS-tiers were here looking for Dark Stones, dragon blood, dragon marrow, or anything of similar value.

It was said that dragon marrow was the most abundant, but Qin Feng had not found any so far.

‘Well, it’s fate that we meet here. Let me send you guys some gifts.’ Qin Feng thought about it. Seeing the stalemate, and that the group could not do anything about the giant specter, Qin Feng retreated and took out the Gorefiend’s core again.

Soon, hundreds of specters gathered around him again.

Although there were only three hundred shadows, it was the last straw that could easily run the group over.

Qin Feng dashed toward the giant specter.

“Bai Li, give me a hand later.”

“Okay.” Bai Li’s answer resonated from his soul.

Qin Feng’s action came with considerable risk. Nevertheless, after running and exploring inside the valley for more than half an hour, he had largely grasped the topography of this Dragonspine Valley. Places that might be dangerous to others were like his backyard now.

“Rampage Influx.”

Qin Feng charged out from the shadow.

Raw! Raw! Raw!

The death aura released by the incoming specters finally caught the attention of the party.

“What the hell?!”

“Where did so many specters come from?”

“Stall them! Don’t let them get near!”

“Let’s flee immediately! It’s doomed either way. I am done with this!”

These S-tiers were not a concerted group, to begin with. Naturally, they were conceited and fled selfishly when tragedy struck.

The giant specter was on the verge of defeat. Qin Feng made no delay and released a powerful ability.

“Cold Whisper of Death!”

Qin Feng pointed his finger and hit the SS-tier fighting the giant specter.

A thin layer of ice was swiftly wrapped around the SS-tier. But the ice melted in an instant like his body was carrying a scorching flame.

More like his burning anger.

“How dare you!”

His prestigious tier had failed to terrorize these unthankful laborers. No wonder he was furious.

Qin Feng did not care about his bellow. He drew out the Verdant Emperor Saber fearlessly.

“Thousand Spirit Chain Rend!”

This was the first time Qin Feng was using this skill after he upgraded the saber. Nine frozen stars gleamed behind him. His internal force filled the blade and the attack perforated right through the twenty-meter specter.

Instantaneously, the specter twitched and started to disintegrate. The dispersion of the dark runes revealed a fist-size Hell Stone at its center.

On the other side, the SS-tier had successfully shaken off the Cold Whisper of Death. He lunged toward the Hell Stone, but the space in front of him suddenly distorted. Silver lights blinked in front of him and created an isolated dimension.

“Spatial Barrier—Cubic Clasp!”

The cube was obviously not used to trap the SS-tier. Instead, it locked the giant specter and Qin Feng in it.

“Absorption!”

Qin Feng sped up. The whirlpool sucked the dark runes from the giant specter into his conscious realm rapidly.

Immediately, Qin Feng sensed that he had mastered yet another new dark ability.

‘Shadow Split?’

Qin Feng could perceive that this skill allowed him to create a loyal servant that was tailored based on his current strength. It was like having another contracted beast. He could order them around and Qin Feng’s conscious power allowed him to create seven servants now!

But if he could cast it this easily, then it should be just an S-tier but not an SS-tier ability. It probably would not be a game-changer at this stage.

Qin Feng did not have the time to delve deeper into it. He refocused and pulled the Hell Stone into his consciousness as well.

Crack!

The SS-tier eventually managed to crack the spatial cube. The frost-stricken SS-tier was infuriated. He could not wait to rip Qin Feng apart.

Both the giant specter and the gem hidden in it had disappeared from his sight now. That only added fuel to the fire.

“You must be tired of living. How dare you hijack me!”

The SS-tier did not wait and lunged at Qin Feng furiously. However, his target suddenly turned into numerous afterimages.

“Phantom Shift!”

The images split and ran in all directions.

“Do you think you can escape me? Die!”

The SS-tier raised his hand, channeled immense energy, then slammed it hard onto the ground.

Boom!

The ground quaked violently. However, the SS-tier was stunned to find that Qin Feng had disappeared, leaving only vaporizing dark runes behind.

He insanely expanded his probe and was once again perplexed to find that six Qin Fengs were fleeing in six different directions.

The elite’s face was as dark as the color of the valley ground.

Qin Feng had escaped right under his nose.

‘This new skill is pretty useful, after all!’

Not only could the ability create a servant, but the user could also synchronize his or her aura with it. Besides, dark-type abilities were best in disguises, camouflages, and disappearances. A weaker opponent could not even detect the servant, let alone distinguish the split from the real body.

It was awesome.

‘Besides, I can now investigate the valley more freely and efficiently with the servants!’

He made up his mind and resummoned his servants. Again, he released the seven servants and gave them one Gorefiend’s core each.

Qin Feng then instructed the seven servants to go in different directions.

This way, he would not even need to run up and down the valley.

Five minutes later, he received feedback from two of them as they had both found the Death Behemoth.

‘I now have seven cannon fodders at my disposal!’ Qin Feng grinned and headed toward one of the two.
