Necromancer Of The Shadows

Chapter 1026  Shocked Ashley

Far away from the Magmara Kingdom, in a secluded place within the wilderness...

Two beautiful women were carving some strange patterns on the ground.

One of the women had long, light green hair, red eyes, and her fair skin was adorned with a bark-like texture that gave her a natural beauty. She was wearing a simple long dress and was looking at the drawn patterns on the ground carefully.

"It's done..." Suddenly, the woman with green hair heard a voice and looked at the second woman, who was nodding her head in satisfaction after completing the patterns on the ground.

The second woman had long jet-black hair, black eyes, and she was wearing a black dress.

Seeing the black-haired woman finish the patterns, the green-haired woman walked to her and looked at the ground with a surprised expression on her face.

"You just saw me creating this formation once, but you already learned it..." Ashley said in a voice filled with admiration, looking at Anastasia as if she were her idol.

Anastasia smiled proudly when she heard Ashley and shamelessly praised herself.

"Of course, I am one of the smartest people in Utopia. It's a piece of cake for me to learn something like this."

Although Anastasia's words were narcissistic, Ashley couldn't disagree, so she nodded her head.

"Indeed, to learn a space formation of this level after seeing it just once... You are really smart. Looks like Grandpa was right, wisdom really comes with age."

Anastasia was quite happy when she heard the first half of Ashley's sentence, but when she heard the second half, her proud smile stiffened and she looked at Ashley with a twitching mouth.

'This girl... She wants to pick a fight with me, right?'

Ashley didn't notice Anastasia's stiffened smile and placed her hand on the patterns she had drawn on the ground.

After placing her hands on them, she took a deep breath and silver light flashed around her as she started to imbue the patterns with the conceptual energy of space.

As the conceptual energy of space flowed through the patterns, they lit up with a bright light and the space around Anastasia and Ashley started to shake.

Around five minutes later, the space around them did not change, but both of them could feel that a few thousand kilometres of area around them was completely isolated from the outside world as if they were in a small dimension.

"Good, it's also working just fine..." Ashley nodded her head when she felt the area was completely isolated from the outside world and stopped pouring her conceptual energy of space into the patterns.

As she stopped, the shining patterns on the ground dimmed, but a faint light was still shining within them, maintaining the small dimension.

"Finally, we have created two formations for both of them..." Ashley said after stopping the flow of energy.

She stood up from the ground and looked at Anastasia. "Should we go back?"

Hearing Ashley, Anastasia shook her head.

"No, we need to create three more space isolation formations around the formation we just created."

"What?" Ashley was dumbfounded when she heard Anastasia and looked at her with a blank expression.

"What do you mean by we need to create three more formations around this one? Isn't one more than enough?"

Anastasia smirked when she heard Ashley and asked in an amused voice.

"Do you think I am like Alaric and Sylvan? This formation might be able to handle their power, but it will collapse in just a few seconds the moment I take action."

Ashley was stunned when she heard Anastasia and frowned.

"Didn't we test the first formation that we created earlier? That formation was easily able to handle Grandpa and Alaric's power. Although you are stronger than them, I don't think it will be a problem for the formation to handle your power for around ten minutes or so."

Ashley was quite confident in the space isolation formation she created. Although it was not as good as the defence formation that covered the capital of the Gehenna Empire, it was still one of the best space formations she could create, and even a Peak Rank Six Core Evolver would take at least a minute to break it.

She knew Anastasia was powerful, but from her aura, she also knew that for some reason, she couldn't use her full power, so she didn't think they would need to create three more isolation formations around the formation they just created.

Anastasia shook her head at Ashley's doubtful voice and asked her to activate the formation once again.

Although Ashley was confused, she didn't refuse and poured her energy into the formation once again.

When Anastasia felt the formation was fully activated, she took a deep breath and her black eyes started to change.

"Feel this..." She said to Ashley as her pupils turned vertical in shape and their colour changed from black to deep yellow, resembling the eyes of a beast. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

At the same time, she used the Soul Resonance skill and her aura started to increase. Two black horns with red patterns grew on her head, her hands turned into sharp dragon's claws, and a long tail filled with sharp spikes protruded from her back and without holding back, she fully released her aura.

Rumble!

As she released her aura after activating the Soul Resonance ability, the entire space isolation formation started to shake.

Ashley, who was just a meter away from Anastasia felt the aura released by her and her face turned pale white.

 Anastasia wasn't even targeting her, but she felt as if an immovable mountain was pressing on her, making it difficult for her to breathe.

In just a few seconds, the isolation space formation that could even stop a peak Rank Six Core Evolver for a minute started to collapse.

Feeling Anastasia's aura, Ashley was so terrified that she even stopped pouring her energy into the formation. Looking at Anastasia, she felt as if she were looking at a dangerous beast that could kill her with a snap of its fingers.

Just when Ashley was on the verge of a mental breakdown, the terrifying aura that covered the entire space isolation formation disappeared and Anastasia's appearance returned to normal.

After returning to her normal form, Anastasia looked at Ashley, who was trembling on the ground and asked with a smile on her face.

"Now... should we start creating three more formations around this one?"

Hearing Anastasia, Ashley stood up on her trembling legs and shook her head with a serious look on her face.

"Not three... we are going to create five more, or I'm afraid you will destroy the entire formation with just one attack and our plan will fail."
