The cold and spacious hall.
Caw caw… caw caw…
On the skeletal railings outside the glass windows, several Undead Crows perched.
Their undead soul fire spread a green glow.
It allowed Tuck to barely make out the surroundings with his normal vision.
In front of Mr. Aubrey, Tuck dared not recklessly activate his Precision Vision.
After all, the place they had come to this time was Mr. Aubrey’s private “Transcendent Treasury.”
There were many things that posed no issue if not seen, but trouble if looked upon.
Even if there weren’t the legendary Forbidden Items here.
But those items with special Transcendent Characteristics of strong contamination were not to be casually observed.
“Click… click…”
Mr. Aubrey pushed open the Magic Door within the hall’s mural.
Tuck glanced over.
Inside was unmistakably a “Monster Box” about the size of a suitcase.
It was said that in some plains deep within the Ashen Land, there were some wild Monster Boxes.
And the Monster Box in front of them was obviously domesticated by Mr. Aubrey.
From its incessant licking of its teeth and lips, Tuck could see that its fangs and tongue were filled with the veins of Magic Gold.
“It looks like this fellow hasn’t eaten a small amount of Magic Gold,” Tuck thought to himself.
Following Mr. Aubrey’s incantation.
“Shadow” power began to spread around the Monster Box.
This time, one of Tuck’s requests to Mr. Aubrey was for a Second Rank Shadow Ring Staff.
The power of “Shadow” was not easy to control.
Continued use of Shadow power would result in a persistent consumption of Origin Energy.
Plus, frequently using Shadow power made one prone to attracting creatures from the Shadow Dimension.
So!
There were really not many who were willing to master and come into contact with Shadow power.
Even within the Transcendent Sequence, the “Shadow Sequence” was rare.
The “Shadow” power, which others shunned, just happened to be the medium for the power that Tuck had been exploring and deducing during this period to best exert his strength.
Shadow power was hard to control.
But to Tuck, it was the perfect match.
With SSS-tier “Precision Correction,” there was nothing Tuck couldn’t stabilize and control.
The use of Shadow power would continue to consume energy.
Tuck’s “Original Dark Sea” could easily sustain the consumption of Shadow power.
As for the prolonged use of Shadow power bringing about “ambushes” from creatures of the Shadow Dimension.
Tuck felt that the word “ambush” would be more appropriately replaced with “courting death.”
After solving the various drawbacks.
The properties of “Shadow” would be exponentially amplified in Tuck’s hands.
Before long, the Monster Box opened its mouth and spat out a mass of dark shadow.
As the dark shadow appeared.
“Buzz!”
A surge of intense Shadow Rune Power suddenly descended.
Tuck was no longer the level 9 Apprentice Wizard he once was.
Against this untriggered Rune Power oppression, Tuck could easily withstand it.

But the type of this Rune Power made Tuck’s heart stir slightly.
“Shadow Rune?”
“All I wanted was a regular Shadow Ring Staff. How did it turn into a Rune, Shadow Ring Staff?”
“This is probably going to cost extra.”
A Ring Staff that constrained Shadow power was already quite rare and expensive.
Add a powerful Shadow Rune to that.
It was not something Tuck could afford.
A multitude of dense and thick Shadow threads and tentacles rapidly proliferated and climbed across the floor.
Walls, floors, columns, glass…
Light was swiftly drained away, and the Shadow Dimension was spreading.
The outside Undead Crows sensed the anomaly within the building, letting out sharp “caw caw” screeches and flapped their wings to leave this place.
Shadow was about to descend.
Tuck glanced at the Necromancer Mr. Aubrey.
But he discovered Mr. Aubrey had no intention of taking action.
Tuck had a slight revelation and immediately prepared to make a move.
He was considering countering the shadow with light.
However, remembering the previous instructions of Mr. Aubrey, Tuck restrained the impulse to display Sacred Light Magic in front of the Necromancer.
Just as Tuck was about to move, he found that the Shadow tentacles and threads on the ground had already submerged up to his calves.
Tuck’s brow furrowed slightly, then he exerted force abruptly.
Yet he found the Shadow power was as immovable as a boulder, firmly locking his legs in place.
Tuck’s right hand lightly pinched.
The inherent power of the Vermilion Flame Ring Staff began to emerge.
Using a ring staff to combat another ring staff is the perfect method to contain a spirit-imbued ring staff.
A circle of red flames emerged, rapidly expanding.
The shadow was quickly driven away.
But this also thoroughly enraged the shadow power.
A great mass of shadow power quickly accumulated, forming a huge wave of shadow.
Attempting to extinguish the flames in one fell swoop.
This Rune, Shadow Ring Staff, is more than spirited; it’s almost sentient.
Tuck didn’t dare delay.
Stepping on the fast-moving, spreading shadow, he took three steps in what seemed like two to reach the side of the Second Rank Rune, Shadow Ring Staff.
Tuck suddenly stretched out his hand into the thick mass of shadow.
Spiritual Perception.
The moment he touched it, Tuck’s pupils were instantly consumed by shadow.
The densely clustered shadow threads poured continuously from Tuck’s ears, eyes, nose, and mouth.
To the side, the Necromancer Aubrey stood silently watching the scene unfold.
He would only intervene if Tuck was completely submerged by shadow and pulled into the Shadow Dimension.
Until then, he would not make a move.
Darkness…
Endless… darkness…
Downfall…
Endless… downfall…
Tuck only felt himself plunging into an endless darkness, falling deeper and deeper.
Any normal Transcendent would likely be lost here.
However, Tuck found the surroundings intriguing.
“Hmm… Shadow Dimension!”
“The intersection of reality and darkness, here there is only black and white, highlighting a bizarre abstraction.”
“But… it’s quite interesting!”
A slew of incomplete images surfaced in Tuck’s mind.
They were the shattered snapshots of the Rune, Shadow Ring Staff dragging the unlucky into the Shadow Dimension.
Even a shallow foray into the Shadow Dimension was more than ordinary Transcendents could contend with.
Without having ascended to the Intermediate Level and condensed one’s own Transcendent Form.
Dimensional travel was a perilously risky affair.
With numerous images fragmented, Tuck quickly located the spiritual consciousness deep within the Shadow Ring Staff.
And when that consciousness realized it had been discovered,
it immediately controlled a vast amount of shadow to crash down on Tuck’s body.
“Whoosh…”
The wave of shadow, solid as if congealed, burst apart.
Leaving behind only the faint sound of waves lapping against the ground.
Then, all the shadow power within the hall was swiftly extracted and converged.
Finally, it gathered on Tuck’s left wrist.
A Rune, Shadow Ring Staff formed of condensed shadow emerged, with Shadow Runes faintly circulating on it.
“I admit you are strong, but unfortunately, you were still infiltrated and controlled by my ‘Precision’.
Fingering the Rune, Shadow Bracelet on his wrist, Tuck pondered to himself.
Teacher Aubrey, who had been intending to intervene, narrowed his eyes with interest at Tuck.
He had thought Tuck was going to fail.
In the end, Tuck still managed to surprise him.
And more importantly, compared to the situation where it was forcefully subdued and contained,
that shadow spirit seemed to have completely submitted to Tuck.
“Quite unfathomable!”
Curious though he was, Teacher Aubrey didn’t pry further.
At that moment, Tuck spoke up.
“Teacher Aubrey, this item is too expensive, I’m afraid… I can’t afford it!”
“Just as the previous price, 120 Magic Gold.”
Aubrey didn’t give Tuck a chance to bargain, closing the mural door with force.
“Thank you, Teacher!”
Tuck bowed in gratitude.
Ring staffs were rare enough on their own.
But this was a Rune, Shadow Ring Staff.
It was even more crucial that this staff had its own spirit.
At the price of 120 Magic Gold, rounded up, it was nearly no different from getting it for free.
“The other item you need will be delivered to you by The Raven tomorrow.”
“In addition, remember, that item is immensely powerful. Once used, even High Tower may investigate.”
“Try not to use it if you can help it!”
“If you do, escape as quickly as possible.”
“Yes!”
Tuck nodded solemnly.
