Chapter 106 Red Crystal
At the same time, when Kyle was feeling extreme pain. In an empty dark place,
The black-haired man who was sitting cross-legged behind the huge white color orb suddenly opened his eyes.
His golden pupils shone brightly within the darkness as he gazed at the floating red crystal in front of him.
Under the man's gaze, the trembling crystal started spinning. The man raised his brow when he saw the crystal spinning.
"Is it time?"
A hoarse voice resounded everywhere as the man looked at the crystal with anticipation.
To be more specific, it wasn't a crystal. It was a god-grade artifact. The black-haired man stole it from his enemies who conquered and enslaved his home planet.
After acquiring the Artifact, and binding it with himself. The black-haired man knew it was sinister because the artifact absorbed soul energy from a 'host' and converted it into Divine energy.
The Artifact would then provide the energy to the owner. Divine energy was very precious even in the upper realm because it could give godly powers to anyone.
That's why the person whose soul would be consumed by the Artifact would never be able to reincarnate!
The Artifact was overpowered but there were some problems. It had many restrictions and took a lot of time to activate. One needs to place it inside a compatible young host and only after 10 or 15 years later will it Activate.
After running away from his home planet, the black-haired man was injured. He was also chased around by his enemies, and during a life and death battle, he lost a big part of his strength.
While he was running away, he accidentally crossed an invisible wall and saw a small yet beautiful planet. At first, the man was shocked because the planet was hidden from the outside, even after standing in front of the planet the man wasn't able to sense its presence.
Without thinking much the man entered the planet, but he was shocked once again because the small planet was filled with natural resources.
The man was delighted when he saw the planet native. They were weak like ants.
After thinking for a while he decided to heal himself by absorbing some energy from the planet's core.
He knew it would take many years for him to heal completely that's why before going toward the planet core, he found a random 'host' for the Artifact.
He knew it was sinister, but he didn't care. He needed power for revenge. That's why he didn't care even if he destroyed the whole planet.
In the end, even if he was injured the natives were too weak to do anything with him.
While the black-haired man was thinking, a melodic ting rang out inside the darkness. The crystal shone brightly with golden light, and with a delightful hum, it started spinning with more vigor.
The black-haired eyes widened looking at the crystal.
"Shouldn't it return to me after absorbing the host soul?"
He questioned with shock and disbelief. His emotionless eyes trembled with excitement when he saw the spinning crystal in front of him.
It seemed, he accidentally found a very powerful host! Because even after consuming so much soul energy, the host didn't die.
Under his gaze, the crystal started brimming with energy. There was so much Divine energy that the man almost stood up in shock.
Suddenly the man's shocked eyes narrowed because the crystal abruptly halted its movement and went dormant within a second.
"What's happened? Didn't..."
Before the man could complete his sentence, the red crystal started changing color and turned pitch black.
The man looked at the crystal with greedy eyes, there was so much divine energy inside the crystal, but he couldn't consume it. Not until the other half of the crystal returned.
With a smirk, the man closed his golden eyes. He wasn't in a hurry, because the small planet was hidden, and it would take a lot of time for his enemies to find this planet.
"It's okay! I can wait for a few more years."
He knew after one more devouring session, the other crystal would probably return.
The man thought about the 'host'. It was a young boy he randomly picked up from a place he didn't even remember.
Who would have known the young boy would give him such a big surprise!
.....
Meanwhile, inside the Tower.
After an hour of running. Kyle finally left all the skeletons behind.
He panted heavily as he looked at his surroundings. He was standing a little further away from the Volcano top.
With a deep breath, Kyle looked back. Some skeletons were still chasing after him.
"What do they even want from me!"
Looking at the approaching skeletons, Kyle got a little angry.
He was tired but his mana was recovered as he didn't use any skill while running.
Kyle looked at the skeletons. He sighed and activated one of his skills.
"Fire rain."
Kyle mumbled under his breath and a huge black cloud formed on top of the incoming skeletons.
Within a second, small finger-sized lava drops started pouring out from the cloud.
Kyle raised his brow as he saw the fireballs melting the skeletons.
The mana inside his body was decreasing as the fire rain descended on the skeletons.
After a minute, 60% of his mana was gone but a satisfied smile appeared on Kyle's face when he looked at his wrist.
"949. Just need 51 more kills!"
More skeletons were approaching but it would take them a few minutes before they arrived in front of Kyle.
Bia who was flying above Kyle suddenly narrowed her eyes.
-'What's that?'
"What?"
Kyle looked at where Bia was looking. A few meters behind him, under a rock a red color book was floating.
He approached the book and looked at it before he picked it up. There were some ancient symbols on the book cover.
"Thank god it's not about arrays!"
Kyle sighed with relief and opened the book.
The moment he opened the book, the book turned into white particles and entered his body.
