With that considered, using Aura Return to attack from behind did seem like quite a low blow. However, pulling such a move in might just be the key to his survival in this desperate situation.


    Now that the Dark Messenger hade looking for Wilbur, he had no choice but to fight for every chance for survival that he could get.


    Upon acquiring the training method for Aura Return, Wilbur came out of his demine at once. He sat down cross-legged and began to meditate as he cultivated Aura Return.


    Wilbur opened his eyes a whileter. He realized that Aura Return was rather brilliant. Wilbur''s body could now absorb and store the dragon aura around him. He can also convert it from physical strength and vice versa, giving him the energy to teleport.


    As he had just started cultivating Aura Return, Wilbur felt that the conversion speed of his dragon aura was quite slow and draining. Despite the fact that Aura Return did not cause him to pass out after one use like the Dragon Move, it was a spell that definitely could not be cast a second time within a short period.


    Wilbur sat on the ground just like that and cultivated for two whole days.


    He could feel that his control over the conversion of his dragon aura had improved quite a bit. He eventually reached the third day, the deadline that Kortlin mentioned that all the dark energy in the formation had to be converted to the power of light, or unthinkable things would happen.


    Wilbur had used up two days and had no more time to waste. He had been waiting on purpose for thest two days. After the elites from the Light World had left, the lingering dark energy had taken the form of human beings and started tearing each other apart endlessly.


    These dark energy manifestations were fighting among themselves to gain power, thus Wilbur did not have to deal with them one by one. All he had to do was wait until they killed each other, leaving the strongest ones behind. By then, he would only need to absorb all that power by defeating the strongest ones left.


    A few dozen meters away, ten thirty-meter-tall giants forged out of dark energy were swinging their fists in an attempt to destroy Wilbur''s defense barrier of dragon aura. Wilbur smirked at the sight. These giants had been absorbing all the dark energy on Kook Ind all the while, but they decided to stop now.


    This meant that all the dark energy on the ind had beenpletely absorbed, which meant that Wilbur only needed to deal with ten of them now instead of the thousands that manifested two days back. He only needed to convert all of them into the power of light toplete the mission Kortlin had given him.


    Wilbur stood up, and the defensive barrier formed from his dragon aura suddenly turned into a tornado that swept toward the ten giants.


    The fierce winds forced the giants back. Wilbur darted behind one of the giants and struck it in its belly with a huge ball of light.


    The ball of light began to eat away at the giant''s body, converting it into the power of light before entering Wilbur''s body. Wilbur began to emit a pale glow as the giant looked down and growled in fury. It clenched its fists, swinging in Wilbur''s direction.


    "Roar!"


    The giant was reduced into a cloud of ck miasma right before it could strike. Shortly after, the ball of light absorbed everything and converted the entirety of the giant into the power of light.
