Chapter 786 Inside The Tomb (Part 1)
In a place shrouded in black fog, a golden altar nearly one hundred meters in diameter was located.
Amid the dark fog, the only source of light was the occasional rays of golden light emitted by the altar from time to time.
The altar was filled with complex-looking Runes, and something was plunged into the middle of it. The darkness in the middle of the altar was so thick that whatever was plunged there couldn't be seen.
Although no one could see what was in the middle of the altar, just by looking there, people would feel a deep sense of fear, as if something capable of destroying everything was sleeping there.
Rumble!
Suddenly, the darkness covering the altar became restless, and the entire area started to shake.
All the ancient runes inscribed on the golden altar lit up with bright light and tried to contain the restless darkness.
Brzzz!
At this moment, the thing plunged in the middle of the altar suddenly emitted an odd sound, and the darkness in the area increased to a completely different level.
To prevent the darkness from spreading outward, the golden altar flashed with an even brighter light.
After a few minutes of restlessness, the darkness around the altar finally calmed down, and the thing plunged in the middle also stopped making odd sounds.
The golden altar also stopped flashing with golden light, and all the runes inscribed on it returned to normal.
Although the altar appeared normal and nothing seemed out of place, upon closer inspection, one would notice that the ancient runes engraved on it were blurrier than before.

The sun was shining high in the sky, and clouds were slowly moving along with a light wind.
Because of this skill, it became very easy for Team Black to create the map of the Tomb.
Volac stayed behind with Evan and using the information that the members of team black were sending him through sound transmission, he started to create the map of the tomb. He ordered the members of Team Black to first focus on creating the map of the plain ground and then move forward.
While Team Black was collecting information and creating a map, Evan summoned another team of shadow undeads.
There were around one thousand shadow undeads in this group, and the name of the group was Team Red.
Different from Team Black, who specialized in sneak attacks, the shadow undeads of Team Red were frontline fighters with overwhelming destructive powers.
The leader of Team Red was Adam, while the vice leaders were Albelu, Gobu, and Brown (the new name of the Bullbear).
After summoning Team Red, Evan ordered them to hunt down some Rank One Monsters and bring their bodies to him.
Receiving Evan's order, Team Red immediately left to hunt down the Rank One monsters.
"I can move with ease once they hunt down the Rank One monsters and I successfully create some high-level Soul Beacons using their souls..." Evan muttered to himself as he watched Team Red disappear from his sight.
Once Team Red disappeared from his sight, Evan released a few more shadow undeads and ordered them to guard his surroundings. After instructing the shadow undeads to secure his perimeter, Evan closed his eyes and focused on absorbing the world essence from the surroundings to increase the rank of his core.
The density of the World Essence in the Tomb was even higher than in the closed world, making it an ideal place for him to focus on absorbing the world essence while his shadow undeads completed the tasks he had assigned them.
As time passed, Volac focused on creating an accurate map of the plain ground.
From time to time, members of Team Red brought the dead bodies of Rank One monsters for Evan, who absorbed their souls using the Soul Absorption skill.
The plain ground was quite large, so even with the help of more than three hundred shadow undeads, it took Volac nearly fifteen hours to complete the map.
Once the map of the plain ground was completed, Volac stood up and approached Evan.
Sensing Volac's presence, Evan ceased absorbing the world essence and finally decided to move.
