The most significant trait of shadow creatures is their silence and stealth.
They can perfectly conceal their energy fluctuations.
Within Noland Lee's energy perception range, the only disturbances were those of rock and soil energy created by the mud and stones.
If he hadn't heard the noise from the shadow pupa cocoon, he would have had no way to detect its presence.
This is precisely why shadow creatures are such a headache.
Noland's gaze swept over the "weakness" column.
To deal with shadow creatures, it was best to use silent power, flames, and thunder and lightning energy.
Conveniently, he had all three types of magic energy at hand.
In the confined underground space, using flames and thunder and lightning energy was somewhat dangerous.
Silent power was the right choice.
Noland reached into his magic pouch and pulled out his "Sword of Silence."
As he advanced from the first level to the third, the "Sword of Silence" had grown from a dagger to a short sword.
