“Don’t worry, Your Highness,”
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said, “There’s no second exit in this cave. Once Su Zimo enters this place, it’s equivalent to having no way out and he can no longer run around. It’s a good thing.”
Suddenly, the City Lord of Absolute Thunder City said, “Tang Ziyi followed in as well!”
“Hehe, that lad has nowhere to run this time round. There’s going to be a good show to watch,”
Liu Yu chuckled.
Displeasure filled Prince Yuan Zuo’s face as he harrumphed coldly. “What’s the use of having nowhere to run? I want to know how strong that lad is and see the two of them fight.”
“Now that the two of them are in the cave, what good can there be to watch?”
Prince Yuan Zuo asked repeatedly. Liu Yu looked embarrassed and smiled awkwardly, not daring to say anything.
At the side, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue persuaded softly, “Your Highness, please calm down. All we have to do is wait and see.”
“If Tang Ziyi comes out of this cave eventually, it means that Su Zimo is already dead. A dead man is worthless and not worth your attention, Your Highness.”
“If Su Zimo can leave this place alive, it will at least prove that he is not weaker than Tang Ziyi and is worthy of our attention.”
“Alright,”
Prince Yuan Zuo nodded and gradually calmed down.
…
Ten Absolute Hell.
Tang Ziyi came to the entrance of the Flying Tiger Lion and paused for a moment.
Although she was expressionless, she was hesitant internally.
Among the hundred thousand Black Immortals that entered the Ten Absolute Hell this time round, the only one she could not see through was the green-robed cultivator earlier on!
To her, this person was an indeterminate factor and a threat.
It would naturally be best if she could get rid of him if she had the chance.
However, she had chased him the entire way and it was already her limit to be able to keep up with this person—she did not have any chance to attack at all.
Initially, Tang Ziyi was extremely confident that she would not be discovered given her capabilities.
But now, she was hesitant as she looked at the entrance of the cave.
“What is that person doing in the cave?”
“Could that person have already discovered my tracks and has been toying with me the entire way?”
The moment that thought crossed Tang Ziyi’s mind, she rejected it.
“Impossible!”
Tang Ziyi thought to herself, “Everyone is being watched by the Mirage Eye and my aura is mixed in. How can this person tell?”
She took a deep breath and no longer let her imagination run wild.
Even so, she was still extremely cautious.
Her master had once warned her that when one cultivated the Dao of assassination, life and death was fleeting and there could be no mistakes!
Tang Ziyi came to the side of the cave and helped a Black Immortal corpse up. She hid behind the Black Immortal corpse and controlled it freely.
It was as though the corpse had been resurrected.
If one were to look at it head-on, they would not be able to see that there was someone hidden behind the corpse!
Tang Ziyi channeled her Lesser Invisibility technique once more and vanished with the corpse, entering the cave silently.
The cave was dark and deep without much light. Even with her eyesight, her visibility was extremely limited.
After walking for a while, Tang Ziyi stopped in her tracks.
Not far ahead, a blurry figure could vaguely be seen—it was the green-robed cultivator.
At that moment, the green-robed cultivator’s back was facing her as he walked extremely slowly, as though he was taking a leisurely stroll.
Suddenly!
The green-robed cultivator’s figure flashed and he seemed to have vanished from the spot.
In such a dark space, it was easy to hallucinate.
Ordinary cultivators would definitely blink and observe carefully.
However, Tang Ziyi cultivated the Dao of assassination and her perception of the outside world was no longer based on her five senses. More than that, she relied on her instinct to avoid danger.
The moment the green-robed cultivator’s figure flashed, Tang Ziyi’s heart skipped a beat and her hairs stood on end!
“This is bad, I’ve been discovered!”
Without hesitation, Tang Ziyi controlled the corpse in front of her and turned around. She curled up and hid behind the corpse completely.
Before she completed her action…
The green-robed cultivator had already appeared behind her and suddenly slapped down.
Bang!
The palm landed on the head of the corpse.
Instantly, Tang Ziyi heard the sound of bones cracking!
She controlled the corpse and could clearly sense that the bones of the Black Immortal corpse were almost shattered by that palm strike!
“What terrifying power!”
Tang Ziyi was secretly speechless.
If she had not been prepared and blocked the corpse in front of her, she would not have been able to withstand the power of that palm strike with her body!
She could not figure out how she revealed any openings that the green-robed cultivator discovered.
She could not understand how this person could suddenly teleport beside her and kill her.
Under such circumstances, she no longer had the energy to think about those questions.
“Retreat!”
There was only a single thought in Tang Ziyi’s mind.
After missing her attack, she had to flee a thousand miles away without any hesitation!
Tang Ziyi made use of the corpse to defend against the sure-kill attack. Without any pause, her initially curled up body suddenly bounced back and she sped towards the depths of the cave like an arrow.
The entire process happened in a flash.
When Su Zimo suddenly attacked, Tang Ziyi fled far away at an astonishing speed!
He was not surprised that Tang Ziyi could avoid this attack.
However, he was slightly surprised that Tang Ziyi did not choose to retreat towards the entrance of the cave.
Time was tight and Su Zimo did not have time to think about the reason.
He did not know if there was a second exit in the depths of the cave.
However, if Tang Ziyi were to escape from the cave and he chased after her to suppress her, he would definitely be exposed to the gigantic eye in the firmaments.
The reason why Su Zimo lured Tang Ziyi into the cave before making a move was because he wanted to escape from the surveillance outside and did not want to expose too many of his trump cards.
If Tang Ziyi were to leave this place, it would be difficult for him to attack.
Worried that something might happen, Su Zimo made a prompt decision and did not chase. Instead, he released the second flash of the True Dragon Nine Flashes!
Swoosh!
Su Zimo vanished from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already above Tang Ziyi.
With a burning gaze, Su Zimo reached out and grabbed Tang Ziyi’s head!
However, the moment he attacked, Tang Ziyi’s figure flashed and vanished from the spot as well.
In its place was the corpse whose bones were shattered by Su Zimo earlier on!
“It’s the lesser divine power, Nether Swap!”
Su Zimo was shocked.
Tang Ziyi was prepared!
When she controlled the corpse to enter the cave, apart from defending against his first attack, she even made use of the corpse to release a lesser divine power, Nether Swap, to escape from his control once more!
Su Zimo finally understood why Tang Ziyi fled towards the depths of the cave.
This was merely an illusion created by Tang Ziyi intentionally.
Her true goal was to leave through the entrance!
At that moment, Tang Ziyi had successfully lured Su Zimo into the depths of the cave.
However, with Nether Swap, she exchanged positions with the corpse and was now even closer to the entrance of the cave!
The mental warfare between the two of them was even more dangerous than a head-on clash.
If the many Exalted Immortals of the City Lord’s residence saw this, they would be shocked at the combat talent and techniques displayed by the two of them.
