Chapter 359: Chapter 278 Thanks for the Compliment
"Lie down."
Sheraya raised his hand, about to strike the young man to the ground, but, in the next instant, something unexpected happened.
The young man... vanished into thin air.
"What...!?" Sheraya was shocked and hurriedly tried to turn around to search the surroundings, "What’s going on here!?"
However, before Sheraya could turn around, he felt an impact on his spine, causing him to lose his balance and fall forward.
"..."
But Sheraya quickly adjusted his posture and hurriedly stood up from the ground.
Then, he saw the young man standing there, a faint smile on his face.
"You..." Sheraya didn’t dare to take it lightly anymore and also asked, "How did you get behind me?"
"Who knows," the young man spread his hands, "This is my most important secret, isn’t it? If I just tell you, wouldn’t this contest become boring?"
"Secret? I see. It’s your ability."
"Indeed, so, can you... solve the mystery of my ability?" The young man smiled, "If you can’t figure it out, I don’t mind knocking you down right here. It would be a great achievement before I die, wouldn’t it?"
But in the young man’s smile, there was also a hint of helplessness.
The first attack should have been the best chance to kill Sheraya, but he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
For some reason, in that instant, the young man indeed gave up the option to kill Sheraya directly.
Perhaps it was because killing him outright would be too boring, so he wanted to exchange a few more moves with the opponent, to compete on relatively fair terms... he told himself this, but it also made him feel a bit helpless.
He was about to die, and yet he was still troubling himself with such things; he couldn’t find peace even in death... No, perhaps it was precisely because he was about to die that he had the leisure to engage in these troublesome acts?
The young man shook his head, casting these mortal thoughts out of his mind; what he had to do now was one thing, and that was to bring Sheraya down.
Although he had missed the best opportunity, that didn’t mean he was going to lose!
"..." And Sheraya, at this moment, was also concentrating intently on the opponent.
Sheraya knew very well that his opponent’s ability wasn’t as simple as just moving behind him.
With just one exchange, Sheraya couldn’t easily see through the opponent’s true strength.
The only thing he could do seemed to be to hypothesize the trigger mechanism and principles of the opponent’s ability from some abnormal situations.
But could he do it?
Sheraya couldn’t help but doubt himself; was he capable of doing what Xiao Yi and Fei Ye were able to?
No! He must do it! He couldn’t keep falling behind!
Thinking this, Sheraya had a thought and expelled all distractions; now in his mind, he was focused on one thing... to solve the opponent’s ability, defeat the adversary, and obtain the Core!
"...Are you not coming to attack?" Sheraya asked.
Previously, the opponent had shown his strange ability only after he made the first move.
That meant, could the opponent’s ability be passively triggered, activated only with the intent to attack him?
But as this hypothesis emerged in Sheraya’s mind, the young man pulled out a knife!
"Do you want me to take the initiative? I can," the young man said, gripping the knife in reverse, "But I won’t be so gentle next time."
No sooner had he spoken than the young man had already charged at Sheraya! The blade in his hand flashed a frightening chill!
"..." Sheraya knew this contest wouldn’t be simple, but he didn’t have time to think and hurried to counter! To flick away the opponent’s blade!
But then!
"...Disappeared!"
Sheraya was startled; he clearly had no intent to attack the opponent, and yet the opponent vanished again!
Without the time to ponder, Sheraya instinctively twisted his waist and leaped forward!
"Ha!"
And the young man appeared behind Sheraya, swinging his knife fiercely! Fortunately, Sheraya reacted in time, and only his clothes were sliced, leaving just a trace of blood on the skin.
With no time to widen the distance and considering it was the best opportunity to counter, Sheraya immediately made the ground ripple like water, then, like a geyser, the ground surged upward, engulfing the young man’s figure.
If it had nothing to do with the intent to attack, then he would try a wide-range attack.
Yet, even this move was futile.
"Heh...!" Once again, the young man appeared behind Sheraya, his blade thrusting straight at Sheraya’s neck!
"...Ting!"
But then, a clear ringing sound caught the young man off guard.
"What!?" the young man was startled, only to discover that his surroundings were already covered with mirrors floating in the air!
The mirrors reflected everything around Sheraya with perfect clarity, allowing him to see all that was happening with just a glance.
Sheraya used this to ascertain the young man’s position and master all his attacks, blocking the strike with precision.
"Not bad," the corner of the young man’s mouth couldn’t help but raise, "This indeed makes it challenging for me... but no matter! That makes it interesting!"
With that said, the young man didn’t distance himself but swung his blade at Sheraya again!
Sheraya met the attack immediately, but the moment that thought occurred, the young man’s figure disappeared once more.
