Chapter 297 Ch 297: Master Of the Cave
Ye Xiao stepped into another dark tunnel that led him to a different hall.
This hall was unlike other halls. The light here was dim, and it was slightly reddish in color.
Before Ye Xiao could take a good look at his surroundings, he saw a human-shaped shadow walking out of a corner and punching at the wall.
BAM!
Along with an explosion, that portion of the wall was blown away like a cannonball.
“Damn, what the hell is this thing?”
Ye Xiao cursed in his heart. He was shocked because the shadow was really like a shadow. It was a human-shaped dark creature with no facial features. It didn’t have eyes, nose, ears, or mouth.
Ye Xiao had never seen a creature like this before.
Moreover, Ye Xiao could feel that the aura rising from this shadow’s body was much stronger than average Mystic Sovereign Realm warriors.
The shadow ignored Ye Xiao’s shock and slowly stepped forward at Ye Xiao.
The noise produced from its walking echoed throughout the cave.
“White Annihilation Fist!”
Ye Xiao punched out, causing a huge imprint of white fist manifesting in the air that attacked the shadow.
“Bang!”
The Shadow was sent flying and rolled on the ground. But then, it again stood up as if Ye Xiao’s attack was not worth anything at all.
Ye Xiao did not give up. He appeared in front of the Shadow and started punching it continuously.
“Clang!” “Clang!” “Clang!”
The Shadow seemed to have been suppressed by Ye Xiao and lost the power to resist. Its body was fiddled with wounds. Ye Xiao did not stop punching, he seized the chance to land his fist on the Shadow’s body more than dozens of times in a short while.
However, even after continuous attacks, all Ye Xiao was able to do was wound a few places on this creature’s body. His physique was truly strong.
Most importantly, it also had the ability to regenerate. All the wounds and injuries healed on its own in a very short time. Its regeneration speed was not low at all.
This was a frightening attribute that this Shadow Creature possessed. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝘮
“Damn it. This Shadow is really difficult to deal with. Could it be that this Shadow is the Master of this cave?”
Standing not far away from the Shadow, Ye Xiao was thinking hard about how to deal with it. He was not frustrated because he had yet to use all his trump cards. In fact, the battle has just started.
And his instinct told Ye Xiao that dealing with the Shadow might not be easy. He also wanted to enjoy battling a stronger opponent.
So, Ye Xiao decided not to use his Soul Destruction ability in this battle. At the same time, he would not use Bloodline Abilities unless it is really needed.
Moreover, Ye Xiao also could not use any spear-related ability such as Dragon Destroying the Heavens that he recreated. After all, his spear was no longer with him.
The two opponents looked at each other and were ready to start the battle once again.
…..
The two lights, silver and black, flashed inside the cave constantly, producing deafening sounds of exchanging moves.
From time to time, the cave’s wall would get blasted into pieces and the air produced enough shockwaves to shake the entire cave.
The battle continued as Ye Xiao hauled the Shadow to the exit of the cave and kicked it in the head, sending it flying into the dark tunnel.
The Shadow rushed back into the cave and a moment later, Ye Xiao was sent flying. But then Ye Xiao flew back at an incredible speed and punched the Shadow’s chest.
The Shadow was sent flying and collided against the wall, blasting the wall again, revealing another big spacious hall inside the cave.
They continued to exchange one move after another.
A few minutes later, Ye Xiao could be seen charging at the Shadow and smashing his fist on the Shadow’s body relentlessly.
BAM!
The Shadow punched back, and Ye Xiao was forced to step back quickly.
“Roar!”
Finally, as if the Shadow was enraged, it looked at the sky and roared loudly. Ye Xiao felt cold in his body as he saw the mouthless Shadow’s face actually splitting open as it roared at the sky. The next moment, fire emerged on the Shadow’s body. However, this fire was not hot but cold, too cold.
It was so cold that Ye Xiao didn’t think that he could resist the fire for long.
“Could this be the source of all those Cold Energies?”
Ye Xiao was shocked because the fire was so cold that Ye Xiao felt his blood starting to freeze.
This was just a feeling, not truth. However, it was still terrifying.
At the same time, Ye Xiao had a feeling that the Shadow’s strength had been doubled. Although its cultivation did not increase, the increase in strength was terrifying.
“It must be the Master of this cave!”
Ye Xiao was now certain that this Shadow was the master of the cave. He needs to defeat it if he wants to obtain the Water Source Crystal.
Boom~
This was not the sound of an explosion, but the aftersound of the speed at which the Shadow rushed toward Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao’s face changed greatly. Waving his hand, he pulled out the Infinity Edge Blade. Holding the dragon bone, he confronted the Shadow who was now only half a meter away from him.
“He is too fast!”
“Pa!”
Ye Xiao didn’t even see how the Shadow attacked, but his Infinity Edge Blade had been blown away and it stabbed into the wall.
Fortunately, when Ye Xiao felt the attack landing on the Infinity Edge Blade, he teleported a few meters away, avoiding the fatal attack of the Shadow.
Ye Xiao was lost for words as the Master of the cave was really too strong.
Did that Evil-eyed Golden Lion really think anyone could defeat this monster with the limit of their cultivation at the Origin Fusion Sovereign Realm?
It is simply impossible!
This Shadow is a monster that even the strongest Mystic Sovereigns would find very hard to deal with.
If not for Ye Xiao having the strength to fight above his level, he would have already died several times under this Shadow’s relentless attacks.
Why the hell did the Evil-eyed Golden Lion make the difficulty of this test so high?
Is it really fair to keep such high requirements for selection?
It is no wonder no one has ever been able to obtain a single Rule Source Crystal from the Deep Sea Abyss.
He has no idea how many people took this test, but they must have died with grievances and complaints in their hearts. They must have felt wronged.
This is simply bullying!
“Roar!”
The Shadow roared at Ye Xiao once again and rushed at him again.
This time, however, Ye Xiao was ready.
“Do you really think I can not deal with you?”
Ye Xiao snorted coldly and extended his hand. The Infinity Edge Blade returned to Ye Xiao’s hand immediately.
A terrifying Blade Intent erupted from Ye Xiao’s body. The rushing Shadow stopped in its tracks and looked at Ye Xiao’s blade with surprise in its eyes.
This is because the Shadow could clearly feel its soul being locked by Ye Xiao.
This was the Blade Soul that Ye Xiao had comprehended back in the Heavens. However, it doesn’t have much effect on the people of Chaos. But at least, Blade Soul could make the attacks stronger, much stronger.
“Next time I return to the Land of Morning Stars, I’ll make Lin Hao display the Sword Instinct!”
Ye Xiao muttered in his heart. By making Lin Hao display the Sword Instinct, he would use the Eyes of Insight to comprehend the Blade Instinct.
Ye Xiao finally unleashed his attack.
An arc of blade light materialized in mid-air and suddenly produced a swirl of air, causing countless wind blades to attack the surroundings.
BANG!
The Shadow was already locked and it could not avoid the attack. The arc of blade light landed on the shadow’s body, immediately severing the lower half of its body into two, and sending them flying.
“Phuu!”
Ye Xiao looked at the Shadow as he wondered if the Shadow was dead.
However, the Shadow suddenly raised its hand and slammed down on the ground.
A huge dark palm appeared in the air and landed on Ye Xiao’s body.
Crack!
Ye Xiao was slapped flying. His head was dizzy from this attack. Ye Xiao was shocked at the enormous power behind this attack.
“Fuck! I was careless!”
Ye Xiao muttered in his heart and shook his head before looking at the Shadow. He then saw how the Shadow’s lower half started reconnecting with each other. This sight was really too eerie but profound at the same time.
“Damn!”
“If not for my strong body, my ribs would have been shattered from its previous attack!”
Ye Xiao deeply breathed and appeared in front of the Shadow with a flash.
