Chapter 697 Evolution Of The Shadow Realm And Awakening Of The Shadows (Part 2)
Inside the shadow realm, a great change was taking place. The throne within the Black Castle, which was the core of the Shadow Realm was shrouded in black aura and terrifying waves of ancient energy were emanating from it.
The pressure that the energy waves were releasing was so terrible that every single creature within the shadow realm was frozen in place and no one dared to move.
Even Anastasia who was standing outside of the Throne Room didn't dare to approach it as even though she had partial authority over the shadow realm, she could feel that the laws of the shadow realm were changing and it would be dangerous for her if she tries to get close to the core of shadow realm.
The space of the shadow realm was expanding and its area was increasing at an alarming speed.
Because of the little control she had over the shadow realm, Anastasia was easily able to perceive all the changes that were happening within the shadow realm.
Previously, the atmosphere of the shadow realm was filled with shadow energy, but now, the shadow energy was changing into a completely different energy and its power was even more terrifying than before.
Moreover, although Anastasia didn't leave the shadow realm for thousands of years, she could still tell that the laws of the shadow realm became more solid and were even more powerful than the laws of Utopia. Because of these powerful laws, it was now easier for people to advance their rank while cultivating inside the shadow realm.
"I am feeling like I can finally reach the peak of the World Rank.." Anastasia muttered, looking at her core which was trembling in excitement.
Not only Anastasia, but many other creatures who live within the shadow realm felt the same and some even broke through the next rank without doing anything.
"The Shadow Realm is the manifestation of the World that will be integrated with Master's Monarch Core in the future, but now that this world is changing it means that Master's Monarch Core has evolved to a higher level..." Anastasia muttered in a shocked filled voice and felt her head spinning. ".. But how is this possible for a Monarch Core to evolve to a higher level? Isn't it said that Monarch Cores cannot evolve like Prime Cores and will remain the same even after the Monarch Physique holder reaches Rank One."
According to what Anastasi knows, unlike the prime core that evolves into a different core according to the life experience of the user once they reach Rank One, the Monarch Core can't evolve and it will remain the same even after the user reaches Rank One.
But now looking at the changes that were happening within the shadow realm, she was not sure anymore.
While Anastasia was thinking about the changes that were happening within the shadow realm, the energy that was coming out of the core of the shadow realm merged with its atmosphere. The space of the shadow realm continued to expand and in just a few minutes, the area of the shadow realm was at least two times bigger than before.
Just when Anastasia was marvelling about the changes that were happening within the shadow realm, her expression changed and she appeared underground area of the castle.
In the underground area of the castle, tens of thousands of black balls were placed in lines.
As the energy that was coming out from the core of the shadow realm filled the atmosphere, all the black balls started to absorb this energy like hungry wolves.
"Don't tell me all of them are going to wake up..." Anastasia muttered, and her heart started to beat in excitement.
'If they all wake up, I can ditch all the work of the Shadow Realm on them and leave here to meet Master, who is probably about to arrive in Utopia.'
All the black balls that filled the underground area continued to absorb the new energy that filled the shadow realm and faint auras started to come out of them.
Crack... Crack... Crack...
Suddenly, Anastasia heard sounds of cracking and noticed many black balls that were releasing the aura of S rank and Rank One Core Evolver started to break.
"Looks like the lower level shadow undeads will wake up first.." Anastasia said in a neutral voice. She did not care about the low level shadow undeads that were walking up and focused on the other balls that were releasing higher level aura.
"Looking at the situation, it might take a few days or even months for the higher level shadow undeads to wake up..." Anastasia muttered and disappeared from the underground area.
After leaving the underground area, she appeared in the place where the pond of the shadow energy was located.
Looking at the pond of the shadow energy, Anastasia's lips arched upwards.
"The energy of the pond is also evolving, if I throw some of them into this pond they will definitely wake up in just a few days..." Anastasia muttered, looking at the pond of shadow energy which was bubbling with the higher level energy.
After confirming that that the pond of the shadow energy also evolved, Anastasia returned to the underground area and looked at the five black balls that were in the front area.
She felt the aura of all five balls and after a moment of consideration, chose two balls from the right side.
"These two should be enough.." She muttered and looked at the other three balls.
When she looked at the ball that was placed in the leftmost corner, she could not help but tremble a bit.
"Although I want everyone to wake up, I hope this bastard sleeps for a long time otherwise who know what kind of chaos he will unleash after waking up.." Anastasia muttered and took the two black balls away from the underground area.
After leaving the underground area, Anastasia once again appeared in front of the shadow energy pond.
After appearing there, she threw both black balls into the shadow energy pond as if she was throwing away garbage.
"With the help of this new energy they should be able to wake up in just a few days and then I can leave the shadow realm without worrying about anything," Anastasia muttered and looked at the pond with a smile on her face.
