Chapter 393: Shadow Flow


    “No… I just want my friend to witness your superb assassination and shadow control abilities, senior sister.”


    “Alright, I happen to be free today.”


    Senior Sister Jane showed a rather strange smile, epting Han Dong’s invitation for a sparring match.


    “Thank you, senior sister.”


    “I need to meet my mentor first. I’ll contact you in half an hour…I’ll arrange the location for the spar. There are many suitable secret rooms for dueling in the Large Cemetery.


    Juniors should make sure you and your friend are well prepared.


    I’ve only just broken through to a new power. I can’t fully control it yet… If I identally lose control of my strength, it might end up costing your lives.”


    “Okay.”


    Han Dong could only force a grin.


    Clearly, Senior Sister Jane intended to use this opportunity to teach this presumptuous young man a good lesson.


    As long as she avoids a killing blow, it would be eptable to sever tendons in his hands and feet.


    ……


    “No wonder we rarely see Senior Sister Jane in ordinary times. She primarily cultivates in the Large Cemetery… It seems her mentor must also be a high-ranking member of the Mysterious Department, right?”


    Every time Han Dong entered the Large Cemetery, he had a feeling of being ‘watched’.


    The deeper he ventured, the stronger this sensation became.


    Han Dong descended to a small stone cultivation chamber filled with Yin Qi.


    Despite being located in the Mysterious Department, one must still pay a fee to use such a gloomy stone chamber individually.


    Such a small stone chamber requires five copper coins per hour.


    But, to help Chen Li grow, Han Dong was willing to spend the money…If they ran out, they could always borrow from Dumps.


    When he pushed open the chamber door.


    Thedy in red with ck hair, Miss Chen Li, was floating in mid-air. The Yin Qi in the stone chamber was faintly revolving around her as the center point, with some of the Yin Qi being absorbed into her body.


    “Refining Yin Energy”


    “Mr. Han Dong!”


    Seeing Han Dong enter, Chen Li slowly halted the absorption of Yin Qi.


    Upon her feet touching the ground, she immediately let her ck hair covering her face flow down her back.


    As a result of refining Yin Energy, Chen Li’s skin had be much fairer, or as one might say, ‘paler’.


    The rate of aging was significantly slowed. Her skin now cold and tight, with an ominous and frigid aura, she felt something like a ‘girl next door who happens to be a ghost’.


    “After this much practice, it’s about time for some realbat… We’re in luck today. I ran into an opponent quite simr to you for training.”


    “Are they very strong?”


    “The kind that can kill you without much effort, so try your best to learn from them.”


    “Hmm… ”


    Ever since Chen Li decided to let go of her obsessions, abandoning everything from her original world and following Han Dong here, she resolved to survive in this new ce.


    Having grown up in a small vige, harboring resentment for a long time, Chen Li’s character was naturally different from that of ordinary girls…


    Seeing her nominal master, Han Dong, growing stronger each day, she certainly did not want to be a burden.


    Soon, a message from Senior Sister Jane arrived.


    The location for the spar was deep in the Large Cemetery, a special area known as Shadow Ghost Training Ground-2.


    When they approached the depths of the Large Cemetery, they could clearly see theyered structure change.


    “So the Large Cemetery is divided into upper and loweryers… the upperyer is managed by the undead to umte and condense Yin Qi while the loweryer is the actual teaching area for the followers of the shadow faction!”


    Crossing the undead managed area, lit with oilmps, the lower area did not provide any lighting, and the entrance had a clear warning sign.


    [Shadow Faction Forbidden Area, Lighting Is Strictly Prohibited]


    Vastly different from the sensation of walking in any normal dark area.


    Hidden in the darkness here are many unknown shadows, possibly humans, possibly phantoms, most of which carry a certain murderous intent. It’s quite dangerous.


    Although Han Dong is well aware that this ce is under the jurisdiction of the Mysterious Department and it is impossible for an Apprentice Knight to be killed here… He is still vignt, squeezing a handful of yellow sand in his left hand to deal with any possible situations.


    [Shadow Ghost Training Ground-2]


    Using the guide signs embedded in the walls, he finally reached the designated spot.


    As Han Dong stepped into the training ground constructed of giant rocks.


    A series of blue ghost fires floating in the air quickly lit up, illuminating the vast training areapletely.


    “Is this your friend…or should I say, your ‘Summoned Creatures’?”


    Jane’s judgment of people is very urate, and she can tell at a nce that Miss Chen Li does not belong to the Holy City.


    “It should be considered a summoned creature… I brought her to the Holy City, and she has been following me in private.


    She has some simrities with Jane in terms of attributes. I hope she can learn some assassination techniques from you.”


    “Come on.”


    Jane didn’t want to waste time talking and nned to give this junior a good lesson before leaving school.


    “Your eyes, they seem special… I’ll shut them for you first.”


    Without employing any assassination abilities, Jane first ced her palm on the shadow on the ground.


    A flow of shadow secret text began to unfold.


    Combining with the shadows in the current training area, a shadow chain directly acted on Han Dong’s forehead.


    A ring with a shadow mark emerged at the brow center, directly sealing the ‘Little Demon Eye’.


    “There’s even this kind of blocking ability!?”


    This was the first time Han Dong encountered the inability to activate the Little Demon Eye normally.


    This is Jane’s home field, not to mention that Jane is best at merging with the shadows. If she can’t capture the target… it’s definitely a loss.


    The moment the Little Demon Eye waspletely blocked, Jane ‘sank’, merging with the shadows.


    “Duo Zeya!”


    Caw!


    Commonmunion.


    Han Dong can’t use his pollution ability in front of Jane, much less enter the ‘Crowman Form’.


    The purpose of calling Duo Zeya is only for a shallowmunion.


    Borrowing the crow’s eyes to enhance the vision, trying to capture Jane’s figure as much as possible.


    “Chen Li… this is the skill I hope you learn,plete concealment! Stealth attacks and assassinations must reach this extent.”


    “Okay… Be careful!”


    About ten shadow clones simr to Jane appeared at the same time,unching a fierce attack on Han Dong and Chen Li.


    “These shadow clones are not very strong, you block them… I will find her real body.”


    Han Dong only focused on observing without making any defensive moves, fully trusting Chen Li.


    The attacking shadow clones were cut apart by Chen Li, with one clone barely scratching Han Dong’s cheek before being quickly executed by Chen Li.


    But… the situation didn’t look good.


    Every time a shadow clone was killed, the broken shadow merged back into the darkness, producing a brand new shadow clone.


    It was endless, and it didn’t even drain half of Jane’s energy. If it went on like this, it would certainly exhaust Han Dong and Chen Li’s stamina.


    “As a Formal Knight, Jane is indeed hard to deal with.


    Even with the crow’s eyes, it’s not as useful as the Little Demon Eye… Jane’s concealment ability is too great, she’s basically undetectable unless she moves.


    Since she doesn’t want to move, I’ll force her to.”


    Han Dong puts his hands on the ground.


    For a moment, the geological structures in the training ground begin to undergo fundamental changes.
