In response, the shadows came to life, morphing into a sinuous, serpentine form. Eclipse didn't merge with the darkness; instead, the darkness transformed into a shadowy, snake-like entity of its own accord. It moved as if it had a life and will of its own, following Eclipse's command.
This shadow creature slithered and moved with the grace of a serpent, extending in every direction. Eclipse maintained his unwavering determination as this shadowy entity explored the mansion's innermost recesses, hunting for concealed passages.
Adonis watched in awe as Eclipse's display of power unfolded before him. Inspired by his determination to press forward even in the face of adversity, Adonis too felt a surge of inner strength, propelling him forward like an unstoppable force determined to break down any obstacles in his path.
