Chapter 1170 Runes!

Chapter 1170 Runes!

Evan tried to calm his excitement as he slowly stood up. The strange patterns that had been flashing within his eyes disappeared, and everything around him returned to normal.

He felt the surging energy within his body and realized that all of his spiritual power, World Essence, and the Primordial Shadow Energy he had consumed earlier had fully recovered due to the strange state he had entered.

'I recovered all of my energy... it must be related to that thing,' He thought, recalling the most significant thing he received after breaking the soul seals and a smile slowly formed on his lips.

This time, after breaking the soul seal, he hadn't unlocked any memory as he had in the past. Instead, he received knowledge about a certain subject—Runes!

And the knowledge of the runes he had gained wasn't ordinary. In addition to learning about common runes, he had received knowledge of two Primordial Runes.

Only after breaking the soul seal and receiving the knowledge about Primordial Runes did Evan understand how rare and precious they are.

According to the information he absorbed, only one Primordial Rune of a particular type can exist in the entire universe.

For instance, the Rune of Evolution that Evan possesses is also a Primordial Rune. Now that it is in Evan's possession, no one else in the entire universe can use it. Even if someone managed to draw the Rune of Evolution, it would be meaningless because this rune had already bonded with him.

The only way for someone else to gain access to Rune of Evolution is to kill Evan and take its ownership from him.

The strange engravings that had appeared on Evan's body earlier were, in fact kind of ownership marks. By breaking the soul seal, he had gained the knowledge of two Primordial Runes.

Since no one else in the universe has knowledge of these two specific runes, the moment Evan learned how to draw them, they automatically chose him as their owner.

The engravings that had appeared on his body were the mark of this ownership. Now, even if someone somehow learned how to draw those two Primordial Runes, they wouldn't be able to use them because Evan had acquired them first, and only one person could hold ownership of any given Primordial Rune.

After sorting through all of this newfound knowledge, Evan turned his gaze toward Emperor Velgoth, who was still lying motionless on the ground like a lifeless corpse.

Although the Emperor had regained some strength over the last few hours, he was still far from full recovery, which meant he wasn't a threat to Evan for the time being.

"I was wondering what to do with this guy, but after learning the Runes..." Evan muttered as he walked closer to Velgoth's body.

In the vast knowledge of the runes he had just received, there were several runes that he could use to restrain the Emperor, including one of the Primordial Runes—The Rune of Sealing.

While Evan wasn't powerful enough to draw a complete Rune of Sealing yet, it wasn't necessary to use the full rune to restrain Emperor Velgoth.

As a Rank Five Core Evolver, Velgoth wasn't strong enough to require the full power of the Primordial Rune. Just a few strokes of the Rune of Sealing would be enough to seal away all of his abilities.

Of course, the only reason Evan was confident this would work was that Emperor Velgoth was currently unconscious and unable to resist. If Velgoth had been awake, Evan wouldn't have stood a chance of successfully using the Rune of Sealing on him.

Standing before Velgoth, Evan didn't waste any time and focused all of his spiritual power on the tip of his finger. At the same time, with a single thought, he activated the engravings related to the Rune of Sealing that had appeared on his body earlier.

As he activated the engravings, the intricate patterns that had disappeared reappeared across his skin, glowing faintly with an ancient, mysterious energy. The spiritual power he had gathered at his fingertip flared with a sky-blue light, humming with primordial strength.

With the knowledge of the Rune of Sealing surging in his mind, Evan crouched down beside Emperor Velgoth, his eyes narrowing as he moved his finger right above Emperor Velgoth's chest, where his heart was located.

As Evan moved his finger, the light blue spiritual energy at his fingertip flared brighter, and a rune began to take shape in the air.

The Primordial Rune of Sealing required five hundred and six intricate patterns in total, each demanding immense focus and power.

After forming just six of those patterns, Evan already felt a significant drain on his strength and more than half of his spiritual energy was consumed as the beads of sweat began to drip from his forehead.

The weight of forging a Primordial Rune was beyond his imagination, making him realize the immense effort required for such power.

When he moved his finger again to trace the seventh pattern, he instantly felt another twenty percent of his spiritual energy slip away. Yet, as soon as the seventh pattern connected with the previous six, an overwhelming sealing force erupted from the nascent rune.

Primordial Runes are one of the most powerful Runes in existence, and the Rune Of Sealing Evan was drawing has the potential to seal the entire universe if fully realized.

Even though he had only completed a fragment of the Rune of Sealing, the sheer force it released was staggering.

For a fleeting moment, time itself seemed to halt in the area affected by the rune, as if the flow of reality had been momentarily restrained by its power. However, because this was only a small part of the complete rune, time resumed its course a second later, the ripple of unnatural stillness vanishing as quickly as it had appeared.

Evan's eyes narrowed as he examined the seven completed patterns in front of him and briefly considered pushing forward and drawing the eighth, but the moment he thought of drawing the eighth pattern, an instinctive warning shot through his mind, forcing him to stop.

'If I try to draw the eighth pattern, my soul will be sucked dry...' he thought, panting slightly as he wiped the sweat from his brow and decided to stop there.

'Although this is only a small part of the full Rune of Sealing, it's more than enough to suppress Emperor Velgoth's powers until I get the answers I need from him,' He mused, feeling the terrifying sealing force coming from the Rune in front of him.

With a focused thought, he controlled the seven-pattern fragment of the Rune of Sealing, pushing it downward, guiding it toward Emperor Velgoth's chest, where his core was located.

The moment the rune made contact with Velgoth's chest, it sank into his flesh, vanishing from sight.

The moment the Rune sank into his body, a powerful sealing force erupted within the emperor's body, spreading through his veins like an invisible snake, locking away his strength.

At the same time, some black chains emerged from the void, binding Velgoth's flesh and turning his powerful body into that of an ordinary person, vulnerable even to simple bullets.
