After withstanding dozens of assaults from the white mist, the flames weakened, and the Shadow King finally repelled the relentless encroaching force.
A flicker of unyielding determination flashed in the Shadow King's eyes. He resolutely decided to no longer evade this battle. The fire sword in his hand emitted a piercing buzz, and the sword body gradually turned dark and heavy.
Mechanical sounds resonated from beneath the jet-black armor. As built-in needles pierced the withered body, a copious amount of Mang Silver Souls were injected within. Simultaneously, the unhealable wounds of the Shadow King were pre-filled with crimson Philosopher's Stones, allowing him to draw Ether at will.
These Philosopher's Stones and Mang Silver Souls acquired from trading with Mammon were precisely prepared for this decisive moment.
