The Sha on Kun-Lai Summit was extremely powerful.
With every movement, it unleashed countless black energy bolts in a dense barrage that could leave its enemies' corpses strewn across the ground.
Those lucky enough to survive would abandon their teammates' bodies in despair and scatter.
The black energy bolts packed considerable power and could easily kill ordinary people.
Even a Wild God would be sent scrambling by their dense bombardment.
Herad had sent Xal'atath against it, a perfect counter to it in every respect.
Xal'atath was a supreme master of shadow.
The Sha could just barely be considered a shadow entity as well.
But it was merely a mass of negative energy formed when shadow power contaminated the earth.
Both were negative energy, but their purity was on completely different levels.
As the progenitor of negative energy, shadow energy had no trouble resisting ordinary negative energy.
When the Sha's impure negative energy faced Xal'atath's pure negative energy, it could only be described as showing off before a master.
So the first half of Herad's earlier joking remark had been entirely appropriate!
How dare such paltry tricks be flaunted before a master?
Xal'atath was the mighty heavenly dragon that would subdue this fiend.
The Sha's strength was by no means insignificant.
It could already claim to have no equal among demigods.
Yet Xal'atath, also at the demigod level, could easily defeat an enemy like the Sha.
This was an absolute advantage in quality.
Under normal circumstances, overwhelming quantity could overcome quality.
But shadow, a primordial power of the universe, was an exception.
Wrapped entirely in pure shadow energy, Xal'atath could charge in and out of the Sha's body time and again, completely unconcerned by the corrosion of negative energy.
Faced with an enemy that countered it so completely, the mindless Sha
