Chapter 635: Bizarre Duel!

    Time froze at this instant.

    Shen Ye retreated into the door.

    The man holding the black umbrella was cut in two by a long saber.

    Everything seemed to be over.

    However, the black umbrella in his hand let out a long sigh:

    “It’s actually a ‘unique’ type of bizarre power.”

    “What a hassle.”

    The man’s body was still flying in mid-air, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and with a single hand gesture, he managed to say:

    “It’s always troublesome when bizarre entities meet; no one knows the other’s background.”

    “Next time, let’s chat a bit more. Don’t suppress me as soon as we meet and put me in a passive position,” the black umbrella said.

    “Less talk, more work.”

    “Of course.”

    The black umbrella began to spin rapidly.

    At the same time.

    The man’s spell was completed.

    Shen Ye slashed out that saber and immediately retreated into the restricted area’s door.

    The pain of his body being cut in two by the long saber had just disappeared, but an invisible force suddenly appeared, enveloping his entire body.

    “Trouble,” Susu said.

    “It’s the resonance of the truth-object and that person—they’ve jointly cast a spell!” Chaos Boat also shouted loudly.

    “—Everyone, prepare for battle!” Chatterley’s voice carried an unprecedented level of tension.

    Before Shen Ye could react, the entire world turned into complete darkness.

    Darkness.

    Darkness.

    It was as if a large black umbrella was spinning before Shen Ye’s eyes.

    It pulled Shen Ye out of the door’s space and landed him in the “Nightclub” world again.

    In the void.

    Lines of faint light words quietly emerged:

    “The opponent’s bizarre spell ‘Soul Corpse Co-Hunt: Doom Umbrella’ has been successfully activated!”

    “Conclusion as follows:”

    “If you die in ‘Soul Corpse Co-Hunt: Doom Umbrella’, your spell will terminate, and the opponent will survive.”

    “If you survive, your ‘Hanged Man’s Shadow’ will kill the opponent.”

    щшш● ttκΛ n● ¢○

    “Begin!”

    The boundless darkness suddenly receded.

    In an instant.

    Shen Ye’s body swayed, and he subconsciously reached out to grab something.

    He grabbed a handrail.

    The roar of an engine sounded in his ears.

    Accompanied by the low voices of people, the honking of horns around, and the wide road—

    “Please hold on tight.”

    “Next stop, People’s Square.”

    The public bus drove out of the station, merged into traffic, and sped forward.

    Shen Ye regained his senses.

    —He had appeared on a public bus.

    Then what?

    He discreetly observed the entire bus compartment.

    The compartment was packed with people.

    All ordinary people.

    In addition—

    Lines of faint micro-text quietly emerged:

    “The Sequence reminds you that in the opponent’s spell, your saber techniques are sealed, you cannot cast any spells, and your strength has returned to that of an ordinary person.”

    “Your truth-object is suppressed, and its power is weakened.”

    “Please survive.”

    “If you fail, you and the Sequence will both be devoured.”

    Shen Ye’s eyes narrowed.

    This bizarre spell was incredibly powerful.

    It instantly sealed his saber techniques, spells, and strength.

    Even the power of his truth-object was weakened!

    —Is the battle between bizarre entities truly this dangerous?

    “Handle with care.”

    Chatterley whispered.

    “Understood.” Shen Ye gripped the handrail, carefully observing his surroundings.

    The bus picked up speed.

    It gradually drove onto a cross-river bridge, following the traffic and constantly accelerating, speeding towards the other end of the bridge.

    Shen Ye closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again.

    My strength has returned to that of an ordinary person…

    Then the Dharma Form cannot be opened either.

    Only the terms are unaffected.

    Unfortunately, I only have a few terms now, and none of them are for direct combat.

    No other power can be used…

    No.

    There’s still the truth-item.

    Although the Dharma Form can’t be opened, I can use “Will meet under the moon at Yao Terrace” to take out the truth-item.

    “I suddenly realized something, and this is valuable information,” Shen Ye said.

    “What?” Chatterley asked.

    “The power of the bizarre side won’t be sealed, and as for terms, it’s hard to say; we’ll only know after more battles,” Shen Ye said.

    “Is the power of the Bizarre Side the most fatal? The opponent didn’t seal it?” Chatterley asked.

    “He suppressed your powers—this actually proves that Bizarre entities cannot be sealed, only suppressed,” Shen Ye said.

    “Call me anytime if you need anything; I don’t want to die,” Chaos Boat said.

    “Of course.”

    Shen Ye took a step and walked to the front of the bus.

    He stood by the driver, observing the car’s driving situation.

    How would the opponent launch an attack?

    To kill an ordinary person—

    What method is needed?

    “Perhaps…”

    Shen Ye muttered.

    The next second.

    The entire compartment shook violently.

    The driver braked so sharply that people screamed and fell forward.

    Shen Ye looked out the window.

    A dump truck veered off the oncoming lane, speeding towards them.

    No escape!

    Shen Ye suddenly understood.

    This scene was familiar—

    He had just witnessed something like this.

    That’s right.

    A public bus crashed into that speeding dump truck.

    Everyone died.

    Flesh and souls were bound by the threads of fate, ascending into the sky, returning to that bizarre entity.

    This was the means to kill him!

    Boom—

    The impact occurred in an instant.

    —Shen Ye was now just an ordinary person!

    At this moment.

    “Susu!”

    Shen Ye called out.

    “No, my power is suppressed, I can’t fully control this car!” Susu said anxiously.

    Shen Ye suddenly activated the term “Backstage Manipulator.”

    “You used the term ‘Backstage Manipulator’ to add a prefix to the public bus.”

    “The current vehicle has gained the term:”

    “Extremely Sturdy Public Bus.”

    —The dump truck was overturned by the public bus!

    But what followed was that the entire public bus, after being hit, was also sent flying and plummeted towards the river outside the bridge.

    The bridge deck was several tens of meters above the river, and falling down was no different from a high-altitude fall.

    An ordinary person would surely die!

    “Susu, open the doors and windows!”

    Shen Ye shouted loudly.

    Bang—

    The front door of the bus opened.

    Several glass windows also dropped at the same time.

    Still good!

    Although suppressed, Susu could still open a door or window!

    Shen Ye wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and leaped out with all his might.

    He rushed to the door, then suddenly paused at the last second.

    Almost at the same time—

    A small car roared past and plunged out the door.

    That was close!

    If he had jumped out, with his ordinary human flesh and blood, he would have surely died!

    A glimmer of sharp light flashed in Shen Ye’s eyes.

    —Just now, he had made a feint towards the door.

    Immediately, a small car, neither early nor late, plummeted down just as he was about to rush out.

    —How could it be a coincidence!

    So he got two more pieces of information.

    First.

    The opponent can observe his situation and manipulate the entire “Soul Corpse Co-Hunt: Doom Umbrella” to control the details of the disaster in real-time.

    Second.

    Even though the opponent sealed so many of his powers, they can only use “natural disaster” to kill him now, and cannot use other spells!

    Shen Ye took a deep breath and jumped out the car window.

    This time he made sure nothing else was falling from above. The moment he jumped out, he pushed off with all his might, leaping towards another direction.

    —Although he had become an ordinary person, having fought for such a long time, he still had the knack and method for this much exertion!

    “Boat!”

    Shen Ye shouted.

    “Don’t worry—I’ll catch you as soon as you hit the water,” Chaos Boat responded.

    “Look up,” Chatterley suddenly reminded.

    Boom!!!

    An explosion sounded on the bridge.

    —The dump truck had collided with something else, triggering a violent explosion.

    A burning, large oil tank roared as it plummeted.

    Shen Ye pointed from a distance and angrily shouted:

    “Don’t explode!”

    In an instant.

    A line of faint light text popped up on the oil tank:

    “You used the term ‘Backstage Manipulator’ to add a prefix to the oil tank, giving it a temporary term:”

    ” ‘Oil Tank That Won’t Explode Temporarily.’ ”

    The oil tank continued to burn and tumble, smashing towards Shen Ye.

    Shen Ye caught it with his hand, and at the moment of contact with the oil tank, activated the term “Will meet under the moon at Yao Terrace.”

    In an instant.

    The oil tank was taken into the Dharma Form.

    —Temporarily safe!

    Plop.

    He fell into the water.

    Something gradually supported his body underwater.

    It was a small wooden boat.

    When the wooden boat slowly surfaced, Shen Ye spat out a mouthful of water, caught his breath, and then said:

    “You could at least turn into a speedboat, what’s with the wooden boat?”

    “I’m suppressed,” Chaos Boat said dejectedly.

    Shen Ye said no more, raising his head to look into the distance.

    The public bus had already fallen into the water, churning up massive waves.

    The situation on the bridge became chaotic.

    Although vehicles continued to fall into the water, they were far from Shen Ye’s position and no longer affected him.

    It seemed he had escaped this deadly disaster.

    Before Shen Ye could let out a sigh of relief, he saw faint light words quietly appear in mid-air:

    “The opponent has launched a second round of attack.”

    “This is the ultimate manifestation of the opponent’s spell; survive, and the spell will end.” The surroundings changed.

    Shen Ye found himself standing on a speeding subway.

    —It could even trigger another round of attack!

    He didn’t care about anything else, sitting directly in an empty seat, breathing heavily.

    Bloody froth kept bubbling up from his mouth.

    As an ordinary person.

    Even with the prefix attached to the public bus, the impact was still too much for an ordinary person to bear.

    He was already injured.

    But the enemy had reactivated the bizarre spell “Soul Corpse Co-Hunt.”

    Subway…

    Was this to prevent him from escaping?

    As Shen Ye was thinking, he saw all the people in the carriage looking at him.

    He looked up and scanned them.

    “Ouroboros Eye” activated!

    Dense lines of terms appeared above the heads of the crowd:

    “Followers of the Old Order.”

    —All of them were from the Old Order faction!

    That is to say—

    They weren’t ordinary people; they were cannibals.

    Cannibals surrounding him?

    Innumerable thoughts flashed through Shen Ye’s mind.

    Suddenly.

    A familiar face came into view.

    —The cannibal who had entrusted him, now transformed into a stout man, walked up to him, surrounded by others.

    And another group of humans surrounded a towering man, about two meters tall, standing on the other side.

    “This is your dead end, bizarre entity.”

    The burly man said indifferently.

    “You’re serving that bizarre entity, here to kill me?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Because you lost.”

    The fat man took over, his tone carrying a hidden hint.

    Shen Ye immediately understood.

    Two bizarre entities in a duel.

    —Whoever won, these cannibals would obey their command.

    Now they had received the order to kill him!

    “My battle with him is not over yet.”

    Shen Ye said.

    Unfortunately.

    His power was sealed, unable to connect to the nightmare world.

    Otherwise, if the four races descended, he would win this battle in minutes!

    “You’ve been turned into an ordinary person; I don’t see you having any chance of winning.” The burly man glanced behind him.

    Several of his subordinates walked towards Shen Ye.

    Shen Ye’s expression remained unchanged as he continued:

    “When I win, you will all die.”

    The cannibals stopped.

    “Win? With just you? You’re already seriously injured, and all your powers are sealed. Even I could kill you!”

    The burly man sneered, but did not immediately give the order.

    Bizarre entity.

    These four words seemed to possess a fatal魔力.

    Until they were absolutely certain that the opponent was completely incapable of resistance, the cannibals dared not make any rash moves.

    The fat man stepped forward at the opportune moment, breaking the stalemate:

    “We respect bizarre existences immensely, but only if we know the truth.”

    This was a stepping stone.

    Shen Ye, of course, could pick up on his words.

    “Make way, my battle with that kindred spirit has just begun.”

    He reached out and gently pulled at the void.

    The term “Will meet under the moon at Yao Terrace” was activated!

    A figure clasped his hand, emerged from the void, and landed before everyone.

    Chatterley!

    “Shall I begin?” she asked.

    “Begin,” Shen Ye said.

    In an instant.

    Lines of faint light words furiously refreshed:

    “From the moment the battle began, you had already activated the term ‘Mandala: Ouroboros’.”

    “You continuously absorbed elements of the opponent’s spell ‘Soul Corpse Co-Hunt: Doom Umbrella’ with ‘Mandala: Ouroboros’.”

    “At this moment, you activated the sub-term ‘Mandala Chant’, injecting all the absorbed elements into your truth-object: Chatterley, Lord of the Multiverse.”

    —In the past, Shen Ye had given up the profession called “Lord of Lifeless Souls.”

    Chatterley used it to merge into a new profession:

    “Shadow Divine Mother.”

    This profession can manifest the powers of others, using their spells!

    Chatterley once used this spell to manifest Shen Ye’s door abilities, borrowing them for her own use.

    At this moment.

    She had finally accumulated enough elements to once again unleash the power of this profession.

    She made a hand seal and spoke softly:

    “Soul Corpse Co-Hunt: Doom Umbrella!”

    In an instant.

    The man holding the black umbrella appeared before everyone.

    He looked at Shen Ye with a face full of shock and whispered:

    “My spell…”

    “Yes, your spell,” Shen Ye said.

    As they spoke.

    The cannibals dispersed silently and with a rumble.

    They left the carriage, fleeing as if for their lives, rushing into the distance.

    —The two bizarre entities were still fighting!

    No one knew what other hidden cards these damn fellows had!

    To survive, they had to get away immediately!

    The man walked slowly to Shen Ye and sat down opposite him.

    “You wouldn’t just arrange a bunch of ghouls to kill me the second time you launched ‘Soul Bone Co-Hunt,’ would you?”

    Shen Ye said.

    “You can guess what’s next,” the man said.

    “No need to guess; we’ll all die anyway,” Shen Ye said.

    Chatterley, maintaining the hand seal for the incantation, suddenly spoke:

    “The disaster fate line he set is a subway collision.”

    “Three minutes left.”

    Shen Ye understood and looked at the man.

    Three minutes.

    A subway collision was a certain death for ordinary people.

    The best way to escape was to—

    “If you die first within three minutes, I won’t have to die,” the man said.

    “Please, you die first. That way, when the disaster ends, I won’t have to die either,” Shen Ye said.

    The words fell.

    Both men stared at each other, ready to strike at any moment.

    —At this point, they were both ordinary people, so how could they take each other down?

    The man drew a rapier from his black umbrella.

    “Even if I’m just an ordinary person, a sword can still kill.”

    Before the words finished falling.

    Shen Ye suddenly threw something at him.

    Snap!

    The longsword cut the object in two.

    —It was a phone!

    Shen Ye jumped up and ran with all his might to the back of the carriage.

    “Escaping?”

    The man stood up with a sneer, chasing after him with his sword.

    Shen Ye suddenly turned around and threw something with all his might!

    The man had to stop, defending himself with his sword again.

    —Smack!

    The object was cut in two again.

    Still a phone!

    Shen Ye kept throwing, and the man kept slashing with his sword.

    In just a few breaths.

    Shen Ye had already thrown out over a dozen phones!

    “Who exactly are you?”

    The man asked uncertainly as he chopped.

    The opponent’s throwing strength was incredibly powerful; if he didn’t block, being hit on the head, nose, or eyes by a phone would immediately tip the scales of the battle!

    After another seven or eight breaths.

    The two gasped for breath.

    —Both were ordinary people!

    “Come on, kill him for me, there’s a reward for everyone!”

    The man roared angrily.

    The burly ghouls, with their subordinates, hesitantly walked towards the carriage.

    “Kill him, and this world will be yours.”

    Shen Ye also let out a cry.

    The fat man heard it.

    He also entered the carriage with another group of subordinates.

    Both sides were at a standoff.

    “One minute left!”

    Chatterley shouted loudly.

    —She maintained the spell’s hand seal, keeping the enemy trapped within the spell.

    “Can’t you solve it yourselves?”

    The burly man tentatively asked.

    This question can’t be answered!

    Shen Ye suddenly rushed forward and threw something again.

    “It’s useless!”

    The man sliced with his sword.

    Crash—

    This time it wasn’t a phone!

    But a wine glass was cut in two.

    The greenish liquid in the glass instantly splashed all over the man’s face!

    “Welcome wine.”

    “—It can kill you safely, secretly, quickly, and silently.”

    This was still the wine Shen Ye had obtained in the aether from an unknown entity!

    “Ahhhhhh!”

    The man screamed, his flesh and blood shriveling.

    At this moment, he was just an ordinary person!

    The cannibals finally saw through the true nature of the two.

    —Using poison proved there were no other abilities.

    —Being poisoned to death proved they were truly just ordinary people!

    “Kill these two strange beings!”

    The cannibals attacked together.

    In an instant.

    The man with the sword was torn apart by the cannibals.

    Shen Ye was also struck by a barrage of cannibal spells, seemingly about to die on the spot!

    “Hahahaha!”

    “They’re dead! They’re all dead!”

    The cannibals roared with laughter.

    Some couldn’t resist and were about to rush forward to devour the flesh and blood of the bizarre entities!

    However, for some unknown reason—

    A faint ray of sunlight quietly emerged in the carriage.

    This was underground; why was there sunlight?

    “Not this one.”

    The fat man glanced at the corpse of the umbrella-wielding man and quickly said.

    Everyone immediately turned to look at Shen Ye.

    They saw that he had been hit by those spells, his corpse slamming into the carriage wall, looking as dead as could be.

    But one of his hands was held high, maintaining the gesture of casting a spell.

    Faint micro-text flashed frantically:

    “You have won this bizarre duel.”

    “Your seal has been lifted.”

    “You have unleashed your innate Dharma Form:”

    “Yin-Yang Director of Fates.”

    “When the Dharma Form rotates to the Yang realm, you within it will resurrect.”

    “Furthermore, your combat talent and results have exceeded the requirements of the Sequence mission.”

    “The Sequence will adjust the mission.”
