Chapter 25: Dark Seed: Shadow Phantom

"Is this what it feels like to be at the intermediate level? It's really powerful!"

Feeling the unprecedented abundance of magic power in his body, Wang Yu was extremely excited as he made breakthroughs in both systems.

Stardust turned into nebula, and the original seven stars became forty-nine. Now his strength is more than just doubled.

It’s just a pity that Wang Yu discovered that the dozens of newly born stars in the nebula no longer gave him the same feeling of closeness as when he used the cultivation upgrade vouchers.

This means that, like a normal magician who has just broken through to the intermediate level, he will not be able to release intermediate level magic in a short period of time.

Wang Yu tried it a little and found that it was indeed the case. Now he could only control the original seven stars at will.

Although he could directly and forcefully control a dozen more with his extraordinary mental strength, it was far from possible to make all forty-nine of them obedient.

"It seems that I need to practice meditation and control for a period of time before I can truly master this power."

"Never mind. I was a little too greedy after all. It's already great to be able to break through so quickly."

Wang Yu shook his head and no longer focused his attention on this.

The reward for completing this mission is something even more attractive to him.

"Random spirit seed lottery ticket, interesting."

"System, how do you use this thing?"

[Ding host, just give the order to use it. 】

"I know that. What I want to ask is, will you draw a spirit seed that I can't use with this random selection?"

[Please rest assured, the extraction result will depend on the specific situation of the host. 】

"Then I feel relieved, use it."

"I hope to find a hidden seed. This thing is much more precious than elemental seeds like earth spirit seeds. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is priceless."

【Under extraction】

Another roulette wheel was placed in front of Wang Yu. Apart from the colorful colors representing the elemental spirits, there was only the pitch-black color that was unique to black magic.

Three seconds later, the pointer landed steadily on the dark area. Needless to say, the dark seed was drawn.

"Oh my god~ When did my luck get so good?"

Wang Yu was quite shocked and stunned. In his previous life, he was addicted to some "two-word", "three-word" and "six-word games" and he almost always got the guaranteed prize.

So Wang Yu was mentally prepared to draw a rubbish earth-type spirit seed and sell it directly for money, but the result was unexpected.

"I didn't expect that my luck would be better after my new life. It's really a reversal of fate! Extract!!!"

As Wang Yu finished speaking, a black object suddenly appeared in his hand.

This black thing seemed to have no substance and was as light as a feather, but as soon as Wang Yu came into contact with it, his whole body shivered unconsciously.

Looking at it, it was as if he was staring into the legendary horrific abyss, but then Wang Yu's gaze moved away from it uncontrollably, as if there was nothing in his hands.

Dark, cold, mysterious, can't be looked at directly!!!
"Interesting, system, please introduce this treasure you have drawn."

[Dark Seed: Shadow Phantom!!!]

[Main Features: Concealment (The host can become completely invisible if it stays still after entering darkness. It cannot be detected by anyone who is not two realms higher than the host or has unique detection methods. The hiding effect of the host in motion is 50% higher than that of ordinary shadow escape)]

[Additional effect 1: Shadow materialization (initial mastery of dark matter)]

[Additional Effect 2: Dark Perception (The host can roughly perceive the surrounding situation through dark matter, and can also plant a shadow mark for tracking)]

[Additional Effect 3: Corrosive Adhesion (The shadow matter extracted by the host has the ability to continuously corrode and destroy and is not easy to remove)]

"Hiss~~~" After reading the introduction about Shadow Mei, Wang Yu took a breath of cold air unconsciously.

Wow, one main effect and three additional effects. Just based on this number, it can be said that it is a great spiritual species without looking at the specific effects. It is also of extremely high quality among the great spiritual species.

You should know that most spirit species don’t even have any additional effects, so you are lucky to have one.

PS: Spirit species are divided into detailed levels: pseudo, small, and large.

“Pa bang bang~~~”

Wang Yu clapped his hands for his system and luck from the bottom of his heart. Only two words kept echoing in his mind: "Awesome!!!"

"Give me the fusion!!!"

"boom!!!"

As Wang Yu said this, the shadow that was originally floating quietly in his hand instantly merged into his body. A chill spread from his arm to his whole body. Wang Yu's bones, muscles and even every cell were trembling.

But soon this feeling of falling into an icy cave disappeared. The spiritual dark shadow seemed to know that Wang Yu was its master and had no intention of hurting him.

Instead, it was very docile, and took the initiative to liberate itself and release endless dark matter, then entered the spiritual world and began to merge with the Shadow Nebula.

Forty-nine pitch-black shadow stars became brighter under the impact of the dark matter. Gradually, Wang Yu's body was also shrouded in a black mist. The room was pitch black and he seemed to have disappeared into the shadows out of thin air.

But only Wang Yu knew that he was still standing there, and he had completely merged into the darkness.
Half an hour later, the fusion officially ended.

Wang Yu opened his eyes and took a deep breath. He felt that his body was lighter and more agile than ever before, and the allocation of shadow magic power was smoother than ever before.

The volume of the Shadow Nebula also expanded again, and it was obvious that the upper limit of the magic energy reserves inside had increased a lot.

"very good!"

Wang Yu couldn't help but cheer in his heart. With the powerful trump card of Yingmei, he undoubtedly had more confidence to survive in this cruel world.

Wang Yu clenched his fists and looked forward with a firm gaze.

The next moment, he gathered his thoughts, mobilized the shadow magic power and began to gather dark energy from his hands.

The floating shadow under his feet gradually became solid, transforming from a projection into a real substance that existed in this world.

The aura emitted by these dark substances is extremely terrifying, as if it can devour and take away anything at any time.

When the dark matter gathered to a certain extent, Wang Yu suddenly threw it towards a flowerpot in front of him.

Halfway through the journey, the dark matter had already turned into a sharp dagger, which cut the flowerpot into two pieces the moment it came into contact with it.

The originally lush green succulent in the flowerpot lost its life and turned pale yellow the moment it came into contact with the dark dagger. There was still residual dark matter on the broken edge of the flowerpot that was constantly eroding it.

Wang Yu stared at the flowerpot, then turned and walked away.

But the magical thing is that the flowerpot corroded by dark matter seemed to have a location in his mind, and Wang Yu could always sense its existence.

He could even sense some situations around the flower pot through the dark matter. The dark matter was like a surveillance camera he installed on the flower pot.

Wang Yu didn't stop until this strange perception weakened to an imperceptible level.

At this time he found that he had walked to a position one hundred meters away from the flower pot.

"This is the correct way to use the Shadow system. It's so weak that it can only be used for displacement and lurking."

Wang Yu looked at the darkness in his hand and grinned unconsciously.

After fusing with Shadow Phantom, his shadow element seemed to be blessed by darkness, as if he had gained some of the power of darkness.

"Haha, I didn't expect that Shadow would become my major from latecomers."
