"Who are you?!"
The Shadow had never seen anything like this before.
Even those Transcendents with stronger spiritual power shouldn’t be like this.
A vast darkness!
So dark it made one’s heart pound with fear!
"Who am I..."
Gu Shen chuckled softly.
He didn’t answer directly but asked in return, "Do you really want to know?"
The Holy Book Ancient House area in Zone W4, the entire mansion, was sealed by Chi Huo... There would be no spiritual power leakage here, in other words, the Shadow couldn’t transmit signals here.
This was their "alone ti."
"The aura you carry, eerie and deep, you seem heavily laden with sin..."
The Shadow stared at Gu Shen for a long ti, silently gripping the two daggers sliding from his sleeves.
"You are not a good thing."
Gu Shen didn’t comnt on this assessnt.
The Shadow narrowed his eyes.
The shadows under the eaves were like ink, unable to dissipate.
He was an assassin lurking in the shadows, hiding in the night, allied with darkness!
But the "darkness" this person before him carried, even he felt fear, disgust!
Wait... fear, disgust?
The Shadow suddenly thought of a possibility and, shocked beyond concealnt, lifted his head: "Are you the Netherworld King’s Apostle?!"
"Heh..."
Gu Shen laughed.
He slowly shook his head, "Very close guess, but wrong... try again."
"Try again?!"
The Shadow was stunned for a second, if not the Netherworld King’s Apostle... then who?!
He didn’t have much ti to think!
"Boom!"
Standing under the eaves, Gu Shen had spoken and imdiately acted. The mont he had the Shadow guessing his identity, he was ready to kill and leave no trace!
It was an extrely close punch!
The Shadow reacted quickly, drawing his twin blades, spinning them into two arcs, suddenly raising them for a Cross Slash aid at Gu Shen’s fist—
"Clang clang" two clear sounds—
Gu Shen’s Pure Land Domain covered his fist, smashing down onto the crossing point of the "Break Source" and "Rend" blades. These specially crafted weapons held great destructive power, shattering the "Big Frost Snow" to pieces!
For a mont, ice shards flew everywhere!
The next mont, they were instantly incinerated by high temperatures!
Chi Huo spread, dense fog filled the courtyard!
After drawing his blades, the Shadow instantly retreated, his heart shuddering with astonishnt.
"Two fundantally different Domain Powers?"
The Shadow had never seen such strange power. Normal Transcendents comprehend one complete domain before advancing to the fourth tier, then gradually comprehend a second domain, often relying on the forr!
For example, the Vermilion Bird Divine Envoy just now, first domain [Fla Giant], second domain [Body of Li Fire], these two domains support and complent each other!
This was the first ti in the Shadow’s life seeing two distinct Domain Powers manifesting in one person!
"Boom..."
Amidst the explosive roar, the Shadow parried a punch with his blade, retreating several steps to barely stand his ground.
While Gu Shen moved a step forward, delivering another punch, then returning to his position, once again obscured by the darkness under the eaves.
The two faced each other across dozens of ters, one at one end of the small courtyard, the other at the opposite end.
"This person is so formidable... I should know him!"
The Shadow frowned, desperately recalling the key figures in the mission files for this trip south.
This guy couldn’t be a nobody.
A fourth-tier expert who has comprehended two domains... should be recorded in the files, why can’t I rember?
Connected to the Netherworld King, is this an East Continent person?
Chen i, no, that’s not right.
Bai Xiu, also wrong...
The Shadow’s forehead was dripping with cold sweat.
Of the three fourth-tier leaders of the East Continent, only one remains... Gu Shen. Rumor has it his power is "Chi Huo," a Spiritual-type S-class power, if it’s S-class, any mutation is possible.
He vaguely guessed the answer, and this ti, the Black Shadow under the eaves t his gaze, seemingly smiling.
At this mont, the two were positioned apart, far from each other.
This guy seems not to be guarding strictly.
Having just fought the Vermilion Bird, my spirit and stamina are not at their peak, if I engage in battle again, it might be fatal...
With that thought, a sliver of retreat ford in the Shadow’s heart.
Yet the assassin’s instinct told him that at this mont, he must not flee, staying offers a chance for counterattack... if he tries to escape, death may be the only path!
"Gu Shen?"
The Shadow took a deep breath.
He prepared to battle to the death with the mysterious person before him, but after grasping his twin blades, he lowered his voice to cautiously call out.
"..."
In the darkness under the eaves, there was naturally no response.
The courtyard was silent.
In fact, the Shadow’s calling out Gu Shen’s na was not as simple as it seed.
This wasn’t a probe—
But a transmission of a signal!
This whole small island was under the surveillance of [Tide]!
The Shadow knew his "Spirit" link had been severed, also knew choosing a battle to the death ant he might fall in this small courtyard!
He might not be able to send an effective ssage to Su Ye.
So the only thing he could rely on now—
Was the Storm Church!
Unfortunately, Gu Shen had prepared "comprehensively" enough.
He had left a wisp of Netherworld Fire in this courtyard, and the monitoring of [Tide]’s Authority Power would also be limited. Under the coverage of a power of the sa level, [Tide] would directly ignore this place.
