Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy-Novel

Chapter 642 Transform

Upon reaching the site of the fallen soldiers of the two forces, Vale remained remarkably composed.

The first row of corpses belonged to the knights and soldiers of the Rebel Army. Some of them were Arcanists, but most of them were ordinary humans who relied on various runic items or magic-crafted products.New chapters are publɪshed on Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

Taking a deep breath, Vale quietly enacted his Darkness Manipulation Spell, skillfully utilizing the surrounding shadows to discreetly establish a connection with the deceased. With this link established, he commenced the first extraction.

Despite his best efforts, Vale was unable to extract everything simultaneously using his Extraction System, compelling him to rely on his Darkness Manipulation as an extension of himself to extract the multitude of individuals present one by one.

[ Human corpse has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]

"Yes…"

After the 30th extraction, Vale suddenly halted as he realized that all the attributes were being wasted.

Although this concern has been going on for a while now, he couldn't help but feel regretful about this problem.

'Am I doing something wrong?' Vale mused. He had been thinking of a method to surpass his Attribute Limits.

He thought it was a problem with the amount of his Divinity, but after extracting thousands of Immortal Shard and exceeding over three thousand Divinity Points in the process, the problem remained the same.

'Do you I really have to complete my Celestial Body?' Vale wondered, but promptly dismissed the notion. The Celestials he had encountered differed fundamentally from humans, lacking even a discernible gender.

While he aspired for his body to ascend to a higher state, he was unwilling to relinquish his humanity.

With this in mind, he resolved to attempt a different approach. After canceling his Darkness Manipulation Spell, he initiated the activation of his Shadow Extraction Spell.

It was a Spell that he had gotten from the Vampire, together with the Blood Curse and Blood Manipulation Spells.

As the Shadow Extraction Spell took effect, tendrils of shadow began to emanate from the fallen, coalescing around Vale and infusing him with their essence.

He had done this before but not to hundreds of people at the same time.

Soon, the shadows surged through him, fortifying his being and augmenting his capabilities in unprecedented ways.

He could feel that his body was subtly changing! However, perhaps because he was not a Vampire, the Shadow Extraction took a toll on his body.

He felt immediately full and had to stop the Shadow Extraction…

However, as he was about to do so, he recalled an item that he had obtained from the Mystic Tower. Specifically, he obtained it from the Sentinel of Shadow.

"Yvaine… Bring me that Shadow Orb…" Vale instructed as he felt that his body was about to burst because of the amount of Shadow he tried to absorb in his body.

On the other hand, Yvaine didn't ask too much and swiftly gave the Shadow Orb to Vale.

Vale didn't waste any time as he swiftly used the Shadow Orb, channeling and transferring the amassed shadows into its ethereal core, where they swirled and condensed continuously.

However, as the Shadow Orb assimilated the shadows from the fallen, it began to pulsate with unsettling energy, almost as if it sought to release everything it had absorbed.

Sensing the impending surge, Vale swiftly intervened, refusing to allow the unbridled discharge.

With resolute focus, Vale channeled his Dark Energy into the Orb, compelling it to yield to his command.

It was successful!

The Shadow Orb began to calm down… With this, Vale started his Shadow Extraction once again, and this time, he allowed the Shadow Orb to take all of them…

After about twenty more minutes, all the corpses outside the castle had their shadows extracted.

However, Vale wasn't over yet. Although he was somehow strengthened thanks to the Shadow Extraction Spell, he felt that he could do something more.

'Since I don't know how to advance this Half-Celestial Physique… Might as well accept the Shadow Sentinel's goodwill.' Vale thought as he made up his mind.

As he grasped the Orb, tendrils of darkness crept along his arm, intertwining with his very essence.

"As expected, the Shadow Orb just lacks the energy it needs." Vale remarked after seeing the notification in front of him.

[ Do you want to change your race into a Shadow Sentinel? ]

"No…"

Vale answered decisively. However, the notification wasn't over yet.

[ Do you want to absorb the Shadow Sentinel's Legacy? ]

"Yes…" Vale agreed.

Ever since he obtained the Vampire's Bloodline Orb, where he was asked to change his race, he had already known that this Shadow Orb was just missing something, that was the shadow itself.

As soon as he made this decision, the orb in his hand shattered and its dust seeped into his body, allowing its potent energies to suffuse his being.

As the shadows coalesced within him, a profound transformation began to unfold.

His physique pulsated with an otherworldly radiance, and an ethereal aura enveloped him, casting a luminous silhouette against the somber backdrop.

"What is going on there?"

"That guy… Is he a Dark Magician?"

"He's indeed doing something… Is he trying to revive them as Undead?"

"It's not impossible… However, the Marquis will definitely not allow that!"

"Right… The Sun Sorcerer is watching him… There's no way he would allow a Dark Magician to disrespect our fallen brothers."

The citizens, soldiers, and arcanists who were still around the area immediately noticed Vale's transformation.

However, Vale didn't care about this at all.

In this pivotal moment, his Half-Celestial physique underwent a radical metamorphosis.

He felt the shackles that were binding him shattered, and he was imbued with newfound strength and resilience!

Soon, the amalgamation of Shadow and Celestial essence within him bestowed an unparalleled vigor, elevating him to a realm beyond his previous understanding!
