[CH399+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Chapter 493

A deep voice echoes back to Ember's challenge as the desert ground behind the marching Ghouls turns pitch black.

"It seems I haven't hidden myself enough to get past the eyes of a fellow Divine Beast."

An enormous black shadow has been cast across the sand, and it begins to ripple and vibrate while something emerges from within.

The top of a dark cloak becomes visible, surrounded by a dark black aura.

It comes out of the ground to reveal a massive skull beneath the cloak.

My double's inspect and appraisal skill picks up a reading that doesn't even seem real at first glance.

________

Its eyes glow dark orange, and it resembles the Wraiths that were in the arena and on the battlefield earlier.

However, comparing those weak monsters to the sheer size and power of the creature that emerges from the abyss below is nearly impossible.

The monster's head is almost 5 or 6 meters tall alone, and the Soul Energy that radiates from its eyes is the source of the power that allows every one of the thousands of moving creatures on this battlefield to continue fighting.

If all of them were put together and had their power stripped away, it wouldn't even be close to what this being contains.

As it continues to emerge from the ground, a long silver Scythe follows it upward, being held in its right bony hand.

Jet black energy surrounds its weapon just like its wavering cloak.

It towers over its troops, 20 meters high in the air, and it hasn't even managed to come out of the ground more than halfway yet.

Ember replies by letting his bright red aura cover his whole body while still in his upgraded second form and float down to talk to the being at eye level with a tone as if they're old friends.

"Looks like someone got stronger since the war..."

The Lich King's glowing orange eyes shift upward to see Ember floating down, then replies.

"A lot happened while you were asleep for 50 years. I've begun to build my army to finally take control of this world. I have become unstoppable while the strong kill each other and those that remain become weaker. Very few remember the strength of those that ruled the old world. You know that better than anyone."

Ember and the Lich King stare at each other as it continues to rise from the darkness.

"It makes sense that you were behind all of this. I must say, the appearance of so many Soul Energy users at once was surprising. Especially that flame user, where is he...?"
