Chapter 2445: Overlapping Space

Before Ye Liuyun entered the Migung, he also took a special look at it.

According to the time those mice reappear, I should be able to spot where they appear after walking five or six steps inside.

So he cautiously walked a few steps into the Migung.

He detected no change, and instead relaxed.

But when he extended his Divine Sense, he startled himself.

He realized he was already deep inside the Migung.

Even more strangely, the poisonous snake and spirit cat beside him had not yet noticed this change.

When Ye Liuyun reminded them, they then noticed.

Moreover, they were now not far from those three mice.

"Retreat first!"

Ye Liuyun felt something was wrong, immediately intended to lead them out, and began using his Divine Sense to scout the exit route.

But after retreating a few steps, he found he was actually farther from the Migung's edge.

"Oh no, I can't get out; there's something weird here!"

Seeing this, Ye Liuyun also couldn't help but feel a bit panicked.

"Since we can't get out, let's deal with those mice first!"

Ye Liuyun quickly steadied himself, deciding to let the poisonous snake and spirit cat handle the mice.

He himself drew a soundless dagger, ready for a possible ambush.

The three mice were not far from Ye Liuyun, and he quickly scouted a path, sending the poisonous snake and spirit cat ahead.

But to his surprise, the poisonous snake and spirit cat, as they walked, vanished into thin air.

After a while, they reappeared within Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense range.

When they reappeared, they had already run far away from Ye Liuyun.

What further surprised Ye Liuyun was that when those three mice passed by, they did not disappear.

Moreover, they seemed to have detected the scent of the poisonous snake and spirit cat, sniffing around in circles on the spot.

Then the lead mouse suddenly let out a "squeak."

The underground space was already enclosed, with strong reverberation.

Its squeak not only employed a sound-wave attack but also combined with a Spiritual Soul Attack.

Fortunately, Ye Liuyun was familiar with this kind of attack, his Divine Soul Power strong, so he was unaffected; obviously, these three mice were anything but ordinary.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun saw that the poisonous snake and spirit cat he had released were shaken to the ground, lying still and afraid to move.

However, the gecko he had seen earlier showed no reaction.

Likewise, the assassin not only failed to notice any discomfort in him, but suddenly employed some secret technique to turn invisible.

The assassin was far away, likely not having directly detected him.

He must have acted after being alerted by those mice.

After the assassin turned invisible, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense could no longer locate him.

His Golden Pupil was too far away to see through so many walls, so Ye Liuyun immediately lost all trace of the assassin.

Those three mice immediately followed the scent of the poisonous snake and spirit cat, crawling quickly toward Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun immediately used the Soul-Shaking Wave Secret Technique to attack them.

But after those three mice were hit by the Soul-Shaking Wave, they were not stunned; instead, their eyes began to turn scarlet.

Seeing this, Ye Liuyun felt a vague premonition of ill omen, thinking the Migung was truly bizarre.

His Golden Pupil also observed the three mice through the wall.

"After their eyes turned red, it seems nothing else changed."

Ye Liuyun was still thinking that to himself.

But the next moment, the mouse let out a beastly roar, and the three mice's bodies inflated like blowing air, instantly swelling to a size larger than Ye Liuyun.

"Roar!"

Then they charged at Ye Liuyun one after another.

After their bodies grew, the two mice behind could no longer walk side by side.

In narrower spots, the two mice could not pass together.

"Holy crap, what kind of freakish things are these!"

Ye Liuyun found the sight of the three mice after they grew somewhat terrifying.

Moreover, judging by his True Essence, he might not be a match for those three mice, so he immediately turned and fled, hoping to use the Migung to shake off their pursuit.

But as he ran, the scenery ahead suddenly shifted, and he nearly crashed into a stone wall.

When he stopped and looked, he found his position had changed again.

By now he was far from those three mice.

"Roar, roar!"

The three mice rushed to the spot where Ye Liuyun had fled, roaring a few times, as if they also knew he had vanished.

After they calmed down, the red faded from their eyes, and their bodies quickly shrank back to their original size.

"What is going on?"

Ye Liuyun was completely bewildered, immediately released Qiong Qi, explained the situation, and had him check whether there was any formation here.

Ye Liuyun even had Qiong Qi experience the sensation of suddenly being moved elsewhere.

This also amazed Qiong Qi.

While moving, he also detected no formation present.

Just then, Ye Liuyun suddenly discovered that the spirit cat and poisonous snake he released were both cut in half.

"That assassin has made a move!"

Ye Liuyun reminded Qiong Qi to recall them into the Space World.

He, holding a soundless technique, began to walk randomly inside the Migung.

He wanted to see if walking around so randomly would let him encounter that assassin.

"That assassin's invisibility secret technique is not to be underestimated; how can we detect him?"

Ye Liuyun was also pondering in his mind.

But after walking for a while, he still hadn't encountered that assassin, nor had he ever run into those three mice.

They were all moving, and each was suddenly teleported to different places, making it really hard to meet.

Such random movement inside the Migung, he also discovered no pattern.

"What kind of damned place is this!"

Ye Liuyun grew a bit impatient and stopped his steps.

"Continue walking, there is a pattern.

"I estimate that after you walk five more times, you'll be able to encounter those mice!"

The Book Demon in Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness suddenly reminded Ye Liuyun.

"What pattern?"

Ye Liuyun slightly lifted his spirits.

"It's that every time you and those mice move three times, the distance between you will grow closer."

The Book Demon told Ye Liuyun.

"What is it that lets me teleport instantly?"

Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

"It's just like your spatial overlap; the principle is the same.

It's merely the spatial overlap caused by this Migung.

Moreover, this spatial overlap keeps shifting positions.

But as long as you both keep walking forward, you will surely meet each other.

"I think its pattern is also to keep you constantly drawing closer."

The Book Demon analyzed.

"What if I keep retreating instead?"

Ye Liuyun countered.

"Then it should be getting farther and farther.

"However, your movement speed needs to be faster than those mice.

"I estimate that the assassin's movement speed is even faster; once you meet those mice, he should also arrive soon."

The Book Demon speculated.

"That assassin's invisibility secret technique seems very strong.

"How can I detect him?"

Ye Liuyun could only ask the Book Demon for advice.

"Just go by feel! I think you should also put on an invisibility cloak and use the shadow concealment technique.

"Then, relying on the sensation of Divine Soul Power, when you sense danger, that should mean you've encountered the assassin."

The Book Demon suggested to Ye Liuyun.

"..." Ye Liuyun didn't believe he could defeat a professional assassin just by relying on feeling.
