Chapter 2447: One Strike, Double Kill
The assassin felt that to confirm the exact position, he still needed to move forward.
But by then his sense of danger was very clear, even able to feel the threat of death.
In the past, when encountering such a situation, he should have been able to determine the opponent's position and could strike.
But now Ye Liuyun is a single entity with two bodies, disturbing his judgment so he cannot pinpoint Ye Liuyun's exact location.
He walked in the middle of the passage; at this point he was only about eight or nine steps away from Ye Liuyun and his clone, already very close.
"I didn't expect it to be this strong!"
He was also somewhat surprised, feeling that Ye Liuyun's ability had exceeded his expectations.
But after waiting a moment, he still stepped forward another step.
Both sides' sense of crisis became even clearer.
Ye Liuyun and his clone had now locked onto his approximate position.
But it wasn't precise enough, so they dared not act rashly.
Thus both sides were extremely tense, focusing all attention on seizing any opportunity to strike.
"How can I still not confirm the exact position?"
The assassin also felt somewhat puzzled.
"Take one more step and I should be able to confirm it! At worst, it's just death!"
Thinking this, he resolutely took another step.
"Swish!"
The clone immediately locked onto the direction of danger, decisively struck, a cold light flashed from his hand, and thrust toward the assassin's chest.
At the same time, Ye Liuyun also thrust out his silent blade.
"Two people!"
The assassin also reacted immediately.
He struck first despite being later, turned his body sideways, and pointed his dagger straight at the clone's heart.
After hitting the armor, he knew he was doomed, and immediately turned his hand to slash at Ye Liuyun's neck.
"After a few soft 'hiss' sounds,"
All three appeared at the same time.
The clone was unharmed; the assassin's dagger struck his heart but was blocked by the armor.
However, the clone's thrust merely grazed the assassin's chest, drawing a line of blood.
At this point, the color of blood in that wound had begun to turn black.
Ye Liuyun's neck was also cut by him, but fortunately Tong Xin had modified his armor, so Ye Liuyun saved his life, feeling only a slight pain in his neck.
Ye Liuyun's blade, however, stabbed straight into the assassin's heart at the same time.
However, after Ye Liuyun stabbed him, he did not move, nor did he pull out the blade.
The assassin also dared not move, fearing that any movement would make him die faster, while he was mobilizing his true essence to resist the poison.
Ye Liuyun and his clone also saw the assassin's soul at this time, which was not particularly strong.
Thus their souls immediately rushed into his sea of consciousness and implanted a slave seal.
Afterward, the clone searched his experience in this labyrinth, while Ye Liuyun took out the Life Spring Water for him to drink, then pulled out the blade and detoxified him.
This assassin's strength and experience far surpassed those of others.
In the situation where he couldn't see people, relying solely on feeling, he could achieve a double kill against him and his clone.
If it weren't for the assassin's dagger not being sharp enough, Ye Liuyun and his clone would have been in danger this time.
So Ye Liuyun felt it was a pity to kill him outright; it would be better to control him for future use.
The clone also learned through soul search that this assassin was one of the most famous killers in Black Kill, Mo Sha.
However, he hadn't appeared for a long time, and Black Kill members legendarily said he had been killed during a mission.
The clone also retrieved Mo Sha's assassination sensations and related memories.
This was also very important for enhancing his and Ye Liuyun's assassination and counter-assassination skills, allowing Ye Liuyun to quickly convert this information into his own experience.
But when the clone looked into why Mo Sha was here, he also began to worry.
It turned out Mo Sha had been trapped here for nearly two years.
Although during these two years he gained considerable resources by killing martial cultivators who mistakenly entered and the mice here, he still hadn't found a way out.
Ye Liuyun stored Mo Sha in the Space World, letting him first recover from his injuries.
The clone was also stored by Ye Liuyun in the Space World; he then began, alone, to follow Mo Sha's memories to search for a possible exit.
With no assassin blocking him, Ye Liuyun's subsequent actions became much faster, and he continued to move forward rapidly without cease.
Yet no matter how he walked, he could not exit this labyrinth.
But thanks to his powerful divine sense, at least he had grasped the full scale of this labyrinth.
"Don't be anxious! Once you get closer to the center of the labyrinth, stop and wait for the labyrinth's hint
"There will definitely be some subtle changes!"
Seeing him panic and rush about, the Book Demon also spoke up to comfort him.
Ye Liuyun was also tired from running; when he was once instantaneously transported to a position near the labyrinth's center, he also stopped.
After waiting half a day with nothing happening, he simply stopped and began to learn the assassin's sense of experience.
After a period of familiarization, he suddenly discovered that his sense had become much stronger.
His soul power was already strong; once his sense ability improved, he also became aware of the subtle changes here.
He felt that within this labyrinth, many spatial fluctuations were occurring.
"Right! Choose a path that can lead out, avoid those spatial fluctuations, and you'll be able to get out."
Book Demon reminded Ye Liuyun.
"Yeah! Those spatial fluctuations must be the spatial overlaps produced by this labyrinth!"
Ye Liuyun also suddenly understood.
He first chose a passage, then walked out while sensing.
Whenever he detected spatial fluctuations ahead that produced spatial overlaps, he immediately stopped.
After the spatial overlap disappeared, he continued walking.
Relying on this method, he indeed quickly approached the exit.
At that moment he finally understood why the silent kill couldn't get out.
That was because the silent kill's Divine Soul Power was not strong enough; even if he felt more keenly, he could not perceive this subtle change that produced the spatial overlap.
And just as Ye Liuyun joyfully felt he was about to exit the labyrinth, a large number of rats surged in from the direction of the exit.
Ye Liuyun immediately donned the Invisibility Cloak again, used the Shadow Concealment Technique, held the soundless, and continued forward.
After his perception improved, his invisibility ability had increased considerably compared to before.
Some rats passed by his side without noticing him, and he silently killed them one blade after another.
Those rats were also running around in chaos, being transferred by the spatial overlap to various parts of the labyrinth, so Ye Liuyun actually encountered not many rats.
Although the blood qi from the killed rats would travel far, many rats could not come over due to the spatial overlap.
Ye Liuyun also walked while killing rats, so he soon reached the edge of the labyrinth.
But he discovered that the outermost layer of the labyrinth was actually an entire layer of spatial overlap barrier.
"Now it's just a matter of whose spatial power is stronger!"
The Book Demon also had no solution for this, and could only rely on Ye Liuyun himself.
Thus Ye Liuyun channeled the spatial overlap power outward, but was immediately sent back into the labyrinth.
This shows that his spatial overlap power is still not as strong as the labyrinth's.
