The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

As for the burned sleeves, they turned into ashes, making Master Kumu's arms look as if they had been stained with coal.

Master Kumu, looking disheveled and about to roar, immediately swallowed his words upon seeing Fang Yun's calm smile.

He dared not act recklessly in front of Fang Yun now, for who knows what Fang Yun might do to him next.

Fortunately, Fang Yun's sudden action gave the ghost blade time to escape. By the time he reacted, the four phantoms had already disappeared.

"Not bad, you're fast. But can you dodge it this time and then again?"

Since the person was no longer there, the fire was put away.

All that remained was a patch of charred black, proof that the place had just been scorched by flames.

"Now it's my turn to say what you just said. What's wrong? Are you hiding like a coward? Too scared to go up?"

Meanwhile, in a corner outside the house, a figure was leaning against something, panting heavily. The teleportation technique he had just used had already exhausted a lot of his energy, and now that Fang Yun had forced him to use it again, he had used up most of his strength.

If we were to force ourselves to fight now, we definitely wouldn't be able to defeat Fang Yun.

So now there are only two options. The first is to leave directly, leaving Master Kumu here to avoid both of them getting involved. This is also a choice based on self-interest.

Another option is to use one's trump card, but this method has the side effect of causing mutual destruction. Unless it's a critical moment, one absolutely does not want to use it.

But it's clear that continuing this stalemate will only worsen the situation. Decisively using the last resort to resolve the issue might be the best option.

Thinking of this, the figure suddenly calmed his breathing, then stood up and slowly walked in through the main entrance.

Fang Yun was surprised to see the man who walked in through the main entrance, his body wrapped in white bandages.

"What's wrong? Aren't you an assassin? How come you've become so open about it? Have you given up? But I can tell you in advance that I won't let you go just because you've given up."

The one who walked over was Gui Ren, but after hearing Fang Yun's words, he didn't say anything, only a cold smile appeared on his face.

"You're wrong. There are many ways to be an assassin. When an assassin leaps out of the darkness and stands before you, be careful. That's my advice to you."

Chapter 657 The Wound of the Shadow

Fang Yun was about to speak when he saw Ghost Blade suddenly disappear in front of him.

This startled Fang Yun. How could someone who was just standing in the sunlight suddenly disappear without him noticing anything?

If it had hidden itself or run to some corner, there should have been some noise. But the only feeling Fang Yun had was that the ghost blade had been heading in his direction before it disappeared.

But if it really is heading in my direction, how could I not know where it went?

"No need to look anymore. I told you, the way of the assassin is something you'll never understand. And when an assassin is walking straight at you, you need to be even more careful."

Fang Yun was startled, because he heard the voice seemingly right behind him, but when he turned around, there was clearly no one behind him.

"No need to look anymore, I'm right here in your shadow."

When the sound rang out again, Fang Yun sensed something was wrong. It sounded like it was coming from his headphones, making it impossible for him to pinpoint its origin.

Master Kumu, who was watching from the side, clapped his hands and stood up: "Young Master Fang, you're in for a lot of trouble this time. This is their family's secret technique. It allows one to temporarily conceal their body and possess another's body."

"If you dare to lay a hand on him, you're laying a hand on yourself. But if you don't dare to lay a hand on him, he'll plant a bomb on you and then calmly leave."

The reason Master Kumu dared to explain this so clearly was because he was certain that Fang Yun would be unable to counter this move.

Master Kuki had witnessed some of Oni-blade's battles with others before, but this move was extremely rare, likely due to its severe side effects. However, whenever it was used, it almost always resulted in a Pyrrhic victory.

Now, the enemy only has two choices: either harm themselves and then inflict damage on the demon blade attached to them.

Alternatively, you can wait for the Demon Blade's spell to end and automatically leave your body. Of course, when the Demon Blade leaves, it will leave a barrier on you, which will then harm you. Choosing the right option is crucial.

Fang Yun is now only gambling on whether the aftereffects of harming himself will be greater, or whether it will be easier to deal with the seal left by Ghost Blade later.

Meanwhile, Ghost Blade was focused on leaving a seal on Fang Yun that would explode later. He had fought with too many people and used this move too many times, but without exception, none of them had the heart to actually kill him.

This gave him ample time to set up the seal.

Of course, to unleash this move, this closely guarded secret, one must use their own life essence as power. Under normal circumstances, Ghost Blade wouldn't use it lightly; by the time it leaves its host's body, it is already on the verge of death.

Master Kumu sat to the side, looking on with amusement, seemingly mocking Fang Yun's question about how to resolve the situation.

Regardless of the circumstances, once the time comes, Fang Yun will inevitably be severely injured, which will be the perfect opportunity for me to take advantage of his weakness.

If Fang Yun were to distract himself and deal with him now, he would only get hurt faster.

At this moment, Ghost Blade was rapidly forming hand seals, inscribing the talisman on Fang Yun's body.

· ·········Request flowers· ···

At that moment, Fang Yun's voice suddenly came to his ears.

"I think you might have missed something. Sometimes, being too focused can cause you to miss things that are more important."

The ghost thought Fang Yun was deliberately bluffing him, so he ignored him.

But in an instant, he realized something was wrong, because the sound was coming from the other side.

Sure enough, when he looked out from the shadows, he found Fang Yun standing a few meters away, smiling at him.

......... .... 0

"How is that possible? Wasn't I just possessing his body?"

Ghost Blade suddenly panicked and hurriedly checked the Fang Yun he was possessing, but he was still there.

Before Ghost Blade could figure it out, he suddenly heard several voices greeting him. Then he saw that there were four phantoms of Fang Yun standing around him.

"How can this be?"

Ghost Blade, hiding in the shadows, was so surprised he almost jumped out.

Isn't this the same move I just used? How come Fang Yun copied it exactly? Did he secretly learn my moves all this time?

But how could Fang Yun possibly learn my moves in such a short time?

"No, that's impossible. He must be using some kind of trick to fool me. I can't let him fool me with such a clumsy method."

Ghost Blade questioned and cried out in his heart.

But when he saw those four clearly visible figures, he hesitated. If he was inside a fake body, what was the point of doing this?

Chapter 658 A Single Strike and the City Collapses

"So, choose one. Hesitating now will only deplete your true energy faster, and then you'll truly be at their mercy."

At this moment, Fang Yun's voice came from several directions in the room, sounding exactly like how Ghost Blade spoke before.

What Fang Yun said is not wrong. It takes a lot of true energy for Ghost Blade to maintain this state, and it even needs the help of essence blood.

If you can't defeat your opponent quickly, you'll only end up falling.

So now, how to choose is a decision he needs to make immediately.

But when Fang Yun's voice came from several directions at the same time, "943," it had already disturbed his mind. He had no idea how to choose, as if he were surrounded by enemies.

"Let me confirm for you!"

Master Kumu had also seen the situation clearly. He knew that if he didn't help Ghost Blade now, he would be next once Ghost Blade died.

Ghostblade's biggest worry right now is that he doesn't know where Fang Ming's true form is. Master Kumu can go and test it himself.

Then, Master Kumu took out another magic circle and summoned withered branches from the ground.

At this moment, he no longer cared about conserving his strength and used his maximum true power, summoning withered branches that emerged from the ground beneath several figures.

These withered branches broke through the soil, followed by those illusory figures that entangled with them.

When the time comes, we can simply observe the reactions of these phantoms and naturally distinguish between what is real and what is fake.

Then the first phantom in line vanished, bound by the withered branches. With a bang, like a soap bubble bursting.

Master Kumu smiled, indicating that it wouldn't be long before the others would also be able to reveal their true forms.

Oni-Blade was also very nervous, watching the changing situation. As soon as the true form appeared, he would immediately use all his remaining strength to unleash this move.

Then, with a bang, another phantom vanished.

Master Kumu sneered inwardly, "Let's see how you hide now, kid."

Soon, the figure that Ghostblade had been possessing also disappeared, leaving only one. Without hesitation, Ghostblade dismounted from the phantom, transformed into a shadow, and pounced on the last figure.

But just as he was about to possess her, the withered branches, just as they had shredded the vines, tore apart the last figure, turning it into a bubble and dissipating.

Ghost Blade stood frozen in place, unsure of what to do.

"What's going on? Are they all just illusions?"

Not only was Oni-Blade shocked on the spot, but Master Kumoku, who was standing to the side, almost popped his eyes out.

"How could it all be fake? If it's all fake, then where is he?"

The two were utterly bewildered; they were certain the target was among them. Now, they were at a loss, unsure whether to continue their attack or simply wait to be killed.

At this moment, a feeling of fear arose in their hearts, and they suddenly felt that Fang Yun was too terrifying.

He can see through any of our moves, while we can't counter his moves no matter what we do.

Suddenly, at that moment, several rounds of applause came from the side.

"You two worked together quite well, managing to take down all of these figures of mine in such a short time... But unfortunately, it's probably all in vain."

At this moment, Fang Yun walked over from the side, and Gui He and Master Kumu stared at him with wide eyes.

“I know you must be very surprised right now. But from the very beginning, you have fallen into a misconception, thinking that I also used the method of Ghost Blade, using the rapid movement among several phantoms to determine that one of them is the real body.”
