Chapter 466: Chapter 465: Enemies on a Narrow Road

Having escaped the encirclement of the wolf pack, Lu Zixun landed with Zhen Zhuoxiu in tow, who then sat in the snow to catch his breath.

The Night Evil Sword was too fast, and he felt a bit dizzy.

"Where’s the Compass?"

Looking down at Zhen Zhuoxiu, Lu Zixun asked aloud.

Lu Zixun was quite interested in the so-called Ancient City, especially since the Frost Core was also inside.

Handing over the Compass to Lu Zixun, Zhen Zhuoxiu’s breathing had steadied: "There are Guardians around the Ancient City. To get in, it’s not enough to just locate it with the Compass, you have to find a communication pass."

Intentionally raising the difficulty?

Lu Zixun’s gaze fell on Zhen Zhuoxiu as he began to ponder the truth of those words.

Feeling nervous under Lu Zixun’s scrutiny, Zhen Zhuoxiu quickly said, "Lord Xun, what I’m saying is the truth. The pass isn’t hard to find—it’s on the Snow Witches around the Ancient City. Kill them, and you’ll find it."

Lu Zixun didn’t expect the Trial Land to actually have creatures like Snow Witches; it seemed a bit far-fetched.

Just the projection alone had J-level strength; without a projection, what kind of power would they possess?

"Do you think Snow Witches are cabbages, that you can just kill as you please?"

Lu Zixun rolled his eyes at Zhen Zhuoxiu.

Zhen Zhuoxiu, who had such trouble with the wolf pack, actually thought of killing J-level Snow Witches; this was clearly a ludicrous idea.

"Shadow Element Spiritual Energy is most suited for assassination." Zhen Zhuoxiu smiled, "So what if they are J-level Snow Witches? As long as there are shadows, I can kill even a god for you to see."

...

After a moment of silence, Lu Zixun raised a paw and pointed at his own shadow: "Come on, let’s practice."

If Zhen Zhuoxiu really possessed such a skill, recruiting him into the Demon Country wasn’t out of the question.

Human Gathering Places were poaching people from the Demon Country, and he, Lu Zixun, could poach people too!

"Okay, let me just recover some Spiritual Energy."

Knowing that Lu Zixun wanted to test his skills, Zhen Zhuoxiu nodded and began to recover his Spiritual Energy, sitting cross-legged.

The moment Zhen Zhuoxiu stood up from the ground, Lu Zixun’s hand sent a barrage of Ice Spurs like a sudden storm.

Shadowy and dark Spiritual Energy appeared around Zhen Zhuoxiu, who then submerged into the shadow, evading the Ice Spur attacks.

Frowning, Lu Zixun activated his domain in an attempt to find Zhen Zhuoxiu’s hiding spot.

The instant Lu Zixun sent out a Spiritual Energy probe, Zhen Zhuoxiu’s shadow reached the back of Lu Zixun’s own shadow.

Without turning his head, Lu Zixun controlled the Night Evil Sword and fiercely chopped at his back.

Even though there was seemingly nothing behind him, a clashing sound of metal still echoed sharply.

Zhen Zhuoxiu within the shadow, parried the Night Evil Sword’s shadow with his blade, looking rather serious.

Ordinary weapons couldn’t reach the extent of the Night Evil Sword; capable of attacking within the Shadow World, Lu Zixun’s Night Evil Sword was not simple.

Knowing that the blade in his hand was no match for the Night Evil Sword, Zhen Zhuoxiu once again fled into the Shadow World to seek an opportunity.

Lu Zixun, who had no intention of attacking, watched Zhen Zhuoxiu disappear and couldn’t help nodding to himself.

Fleeing immediately after a missed attack was quite like an assassin.

At this time, Lu Zixun was pondering over an issue—the previous scene where the shadow mimicked Zhen Zhuoxiu’s movements and killed a Snow Wolf was still vivid in his mind.

If he were to block his shadow, could Zhen Zhuoxiu still do the same?

With this thought, Lu Zixun decided to try, a slab of floating ice emerged overhead.

The shadow of the floating ice encompassed Lu Zixun’s shadow within it.

To launch an attack through Lu Zixun’s shadow, Zhen Zhuoxiu would have to appear and shatter the floating ice.

Zhen Zhuoxiu, within the Shadow World, wore a bitter expression.

In this state, he was completely unable to control the shadow to attach to it, which posed quite a problem.

Looking at the floating ice, Zhen Zhuoxiu took out a handgun, flashed into sight, and pulled the trigger at the floating ice.

"Bang!"

Hearing the gunshot, Lu Zixun instinctively activated his Spiritual Shield, but the bullet still grazed the shield and shattered the floating ice.

Seeing this, Lu Zixun raised an eyebrow. Was this a Spirit-breaking Bullet strengthened to +11?

It had actually managed to break through his Spiritual Shield.

The moment Lu Zixun’s shadow was exposed, Zhen Zhuoxiu pounced, beginning his attack on Lu Zixun’s shadow.

Lu Zixun, unable to enter the Shadow World, could do nothing but watch as his shadow battled with Zhen Zhuoxiu on the ground, intermittently guarding against Zhen Zhuoxiu’s emergence from the Shadow World.

While responding, Lu Zixun nodded.

Zhen Zhuoxiu’s abilities would be really tough to deal with if one did not know about them in advance.

Feeling the Spiritual Energy being continuously drained from Lu Zixun and the thin layer of ice covering his body, Zhen Zhuoxiu’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He had to make it a quick battle.

’Shadow Poem·Chaotic Dance’

Zhen Zhuoxiu suddenly appeared in front of Lu Zixun, his dual daggers constantly swinging, with his shadow mirroring the same movements.

The difference was that Zhen Zhuoxiu was attacking in front of Lu Zixun, while the shadow attacked from behind.

It was then that Lu Zixun truly realized the formidable nature of Shadow Element Spiritual Energy.

Facing this type of Spiritual Energy was like facing simultaneous attacks from two individuals, indefensible.

’Frost Barrier’

Previously having taken hits passively, Lu Zixun was now unable to handle Zhen Zhuoxiu’s Shadow Poem and immediately activated Frost Barrier, engulfing himself within.

The knife kept slashing at the Frost Barrier, flaking off shards of ice, but was unable to harm Lu Zixun inside the Frost Barrier.

’Shadow Poem·Absolute Stab’

Seeing this, Zhen Zhuoxiu gritted his teeth, and a demonic black flame appeared on the knife.

As he viciously smashed towards the Frost Barrier, Lu Zixun sensed a dangerous presence.

Dissolving the Frost Barrier, Lu Zixun raised his hand for Gravity Suppression, using the Night Evil Sword to block the shadow’s attacks, while he fiercely slammed his tail into Zhen Zhuoxiu’s abdomen, sending him flying.

Zhen Zhuoxiu, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted, curled up on the ground like a shrimp; the uncontrolled shadow also lost its head to the Night Evil Sword.

Though damage to the shadow didn’t affect Zhen Zhuoxiu directly,

the moment the Night Evil Sword beheaded the shadow, Zhen Zhuoxiu still shuddered, that chilling killing intent was too unpleasant.

As Lu Zixun approached the fallen Zhen Zhuoxiu, preparing to toss him a vial of Repair Liquid, a boisterous voice came from the woods.

"Click, click, what luck for me to come across such an event, Lu Zixun, Zhen Zhuoxiu, seems like your luck isn’t that great."

Wang Yicheng emerged with a smile on his face, his Double-edged Axe aimed viciously at Zhen Zhuoxiu, looking to take out the nuisance first.

Unexpectedly encountering Wang Yicheng, Lu Zixun’s expression turned curious. Was this a case of enemies often crossing each other’s paths?

Too bad Wang Yicheng didn’t realize that Lu Zixun and Zhen Zhuoxiu were merely sparring, not in an adversarial relationship.

"Clang!"

The Night Evil Sword blocked the Double-edged Axe, and Lu Zixun said indifferently, "Has your dad planted that loquat tree yet?"
