“The demonic domain formed by a secret realm is a result of corrosion by the abyssal consciousness, creating a bizarre and unique environment.”
“Just like the Death Demonic Domain you saw before, that is a typical example.”
“In the Death Demonic Domain, the abyssal will transforms into a blood moon. The blood moon’s radiance affects the entire demonic domain, turning it into a terrifying environment that continues to intensify.”
“As for this Shadow Demon Domain, the environment inside it is a realm of darkness, known as the Darkest Moment.”
At this point, Aiden Winter deliberately paused, quietly waiting for Vincent Wolf to digest his words.
Vincent Wolf furrowed his brows, his gaze gradually becoming solemn.
“So, the special rule in this Shadow Secret Realm is the Darkest Moment? The abyssal will in the Death Demonic Domain manifested as the blood moon. Is the abyssal will here transformed into this darkness?”
“That’s correct. According to our research, this conjecture is the most reasonable and accurate,” Aiden Winter continued, “In the Shadow Demon Domain, out of twenty-four hours in a day, twenty-three hours are within the Darkest Moment, and only one hour has light.”
“There’s one hour of light? Why is that?” Vincent Wolf asked, puzzled.
“If you ask me, then who should I ask?” Aiden Winter said irritably, “Perhaps the abyssal will hasn’t completely transformed the Shadow Demon Domain, and that’s why there’s still one hour left.”
“Then this Darkest Moment can’t be as simple as darkness in the Main World. Just now, it seemed like the darkness was about to devour me. It was even more terrifying than my experience in the Death Demonic Domain.” Vincent Wolf recalled his experience a few minutes ago , still feeling somewhat lingering When it came to the danger in the Darkest Moment, Aiden Winter’s voice also lowered, filled with caution:
“Inside the Shadow Demon Domain, never expose yourself in the darkness of the Darkest Moment.”
“In this endless darkness, there are numerous elusive dark elemental beasts, and once you’re exposed in the darkness, they will swarm towards you like sharks smelling blood in the ocean.”
“Besides being attacked by the beasts, this darkness will also erode your consciousness and sanity. According to some people’s firsthand experiences, it seems that the darkness will actively attack humans, and the method of attack doesn’t resemble that of the beasts, but more like some mysterious unknown force.”
“Moreover, some people have said that they discovered humans who died from being attacked by the darkness in the Darkest Moment would undergo some unknown transformations and turn into monsters.”
“What’s even more terrifying is that these monsters seem to be of the dark elemental as well. After the transformation, they would directly merge into the darkness and disappear without anyone ever catching one of these monsters. No one knows if this is just a rumor or a real phenomenon.”
After hearing all this, Vincent Wolf felt goosebumps all over his body, recalling how he had almost been devoured by the darkness a moment ago. If not for Aiden Winter’s help, he might have become one of the monsters mentioned.
“That’s just too terrifying. How can we avoid it…?” As he spoke, Vincent Wolf looked at the two glowing stones in his hand and pondered, “Could it be that the purpose of these two items you gave me is to resist this darkness?”
“That’s right. In the Darkest Moment, the light emitted by ordinary means is suppressed, such as flashlights and torches, which can’t work effectively, or their light will be extremely weakened.”
At this point, Aiden Winter picked up one of the glowing stones:
“This item is called the Light Stone, a special tool created by Forgemasters by forging light elemental ore and adding the skills of light elemental creatures.”
“In the Shadow Demon Domain, everyone has one or more of these tools because they’re essential.”
Upon hearing these words, Vincent Wolf gained a deeper understanding of the fearfulness of the Shadow Demon Domain.
Even master beast tamers were extremely afraid of this darkness, which showed how eerily strange it was to the core.
However, Vincent Wolf still harbored doubts about this Darkest Moment.His understanding of the demonic realm came only from the Death Demonic Domain.
Back then, Vincent Wolf was only slightly affected by the corrosive environment inside the Death Demonic Domain, and the damage was quickly eliminated, leaving no substantive harm.
But this time, Vincent felt as if he was truly on the brink of death, even though his strength had increased by a great margin before entering this time. The difference between the previous and present experiences was simply too great, which left Vincent quite puzzled.
Upon contemplation, Vincent recalled his previous experience before entering the Death Demonic Domain and thought to himself:
“Last time, I gained the power of the lost spirit of that secret region before entering the Death Demonic Domain. I obtained the life attribute, which counteracted the death attribute inside the Death Demonic Domain, making it easier for me to resist.”
“This time, however, I didn’t encounter the lost spirit of the Shadow Demon Domain, which is why I’m being affected so deeply.”
After figuring this out, Vincent became worried.
“It seems that the most important thing right now is to find the lost spirit of the Shadow Demon Domain, otherwise, many things cannot be carried out.”
“But where on earth should I look for it? There’s not even a single clue! Do I have to search the entirety of Kyoto City like trying to find a needle in a haystack( Moreover, it’s not even guaranteed that it’s in Kyoto City – who knows if this thing has sprouted legs and flown away!”
Aiden Winter, seeing Vincent frowning in silence, thought he was worried about his safety inside the Shadow Demon Domain and immediately reassured him:
“Don’t be afraid, as long as you stay by my side, most dangers inside the Shadow Demon Domain won’t affect you. Besides, there are several masters with us in the Shadow Demon Domain this time. We came here to exterminate the dark elemental beasts, and we’ve made sufficient preparations.” Seeing that Aiden had misunderstood, Vincent didn’t explain and simply nodded in acknowledgment before asking Aiden:
“Grandpa Aiden, where are we going after we enter the Shadow Demon Domain?”
After hearing Vincent’s question, Aiden moved forward, holding the Light stone.
A few steps later, Vincent saw a wall with a mirror-like surface, bright enough to reflect people’s faces. Aiden explored the surface for a while then pressed a certain spot.
Click!
A series of clicks sounded from the surface, and in an instant, dazzling light shone forth, overwhelming Vincent’s sight and causing him agony.
“Hiss! ”
Wincing in pain, Vincent covered his eyes. It took a while before his vision returned to normal.
Looking around, he found himself in an enormous room with absolutely nothing inside. The room was enclosed on all six sides: up, down, left, right, front, back – like mirrors.
At regular intervals, a light source appeared on the mirrored walls. Countless light sources illuminated the large room, filling it with brightness. There were no shadows under Vincent and Aiden’s feet.
“See this? This is the forbidden place of the dark elemental beasts.” Aiden said with some pride, “As long as these walls of light are activated, countless light energies will flood the entire room, leaving no place for dark elemental beasts to hide!”
“Why didn’t you activate it earlier? Can’t it be kept on at all times?” Vincent asked quietly.
“…Ahem, this is different from Light stones. A Light stone can be used for a month and is quite affordable. But when these walls of light are activated, the stored light energy in our domain diminishes rapidly.”
Aiden looked somewhat embarrassed:
“We must find Light elemental creatures to replenish this light energy. Money is one factor, and the other is the scarcity of Light elemental creatures. We can’t find any creatures to infuse energy, so everyone uses it sparingly, only activating it during crucial moments. Because of this, many dark elemental beasts manage to sneak into the Main World..”
