Chapter 872: [Bonus chapter] Dark Reign [Pt 1]

A dark blot formed in the sky.

It was so ugly and magnificent everyone could only watch in sheer horror and awe. This blight that darkened the whole world towered above everyone and everything else, doused in the aura of darkness.

The aura converged and formed a man. The man had white hair, and black-like veins around his pale body. His eyes glowed purple, and everything around him seemed to grow distorted as a result of his mere presence.

"Haa…" Misty breaths escaped his lips as he looked at his hands and gave a satisfied sigh. Dark Energy converged on the palm of his hands, and he inhaled the mist it produced.

"So, this is it? The power I have sought after for so long."

He had built his body to be strong enough to contain it. He had left his primary Core dormant, and even created multiple hollow Cores so he could absorb as much Dark Energy as he could. And now… he had finally gotten it and it had all paid off!
