Chapter 4027. Who is it?
“The Sun-Extinguishing Bow, it’s actually in your hands!”
The Black-Clothed Man recognized the Sun-Extinguishing Bow at a glance, then no longer hesitated, turned around and ran, charging directly towards the adjacent wall.
It was clear that he knew the power of this chaotic spiritual treasure, and also understood why Ye Bufan had just snatched those two Heaven-Slaying Arrows.
Now that both the bow and arrows were in his hands, once this chaotic spiritual treasure was used, it would lock onto him, making escape impossible.
Ye Bufan had already realized that he couldn't defeat this Black-Clothed Man without using the Sun-Extinguishing Bow.
Since the opponent already knew the Heaven-Slaying Arrows were in his hands, there was no need for secrecy, so he simply used it.
But he didn't expect this fellow to be so cunning; before he could even draw the bow and nock an arrow, he had already crashed into the wall.
Just like before, another doorway was opened, leading directly to the other side.
In his helplessness, he could only put away his bow and arrows, and chased after him, carrying the Formation Plate of the Finger-to-Steel Formation.
Passing through the doorway, inside was another identical hall, the only difference being a stone platform in the center, which was completely empty.
There was no protective barrier, and no treasure inside.
With the experience from the previous two times, after Ye Bufan entered, his gaze subconsciously went to the stone platform in the center.
And when he searched again, he found a flash of light in the corner of the hall.
“There’s even a teleportation array here!”
By the time Ye Bufan discovered it, it was already too late; with a flash of light, the Black-Clothed Man completely vanished.
He had originally intended to pursue through the teleportation array, but as soon as he approached, a puff of black smoke rose before his eyes, clearly indicating that the opponent had already destroyed the teleportation array on the other side.
“Damn it, he actually got away!”
Ye Bufan was filled with frustration; this Black-Clothed Man was too mysterious, and his methods were extremely strange and ruthless, making his escape a major hidden danger.
Most importantly, those three condensing spirit fruits—if he could obtain just one, he could break through the current limitations of his Mental Energy and reach the Realm of an Immortal Emperor.
But there was nothing he could do; if he escaped, he escaped, and regretting it was useless.
With the Black-Clothed Man gone, the entire hall fell silent, so quiet that a pin drop could be heard, with no further movement.
Ye Bufan shook his head and began to examine the surroundings.
He came before the stone platform, confirmed that there was truly nothing there, then turned to look around.
The hall was empty, with only a dark passage leading somewhere unknown.
It seemed these three halls corresponded to the three doorways from before; currently, no one else had entered, as the Rank of the Formations and Restrictions within the passage were not low, and could not be opened easily.
He searched the three halls again, but found nothing else.
It seemed the main treasures within this Immortal Cave were just these two items: two Heaven-Slaying Arrows fell into his hands, and the other three condensing spirit fruits were taken by that mysterious Black-Clothed Man.
Who exactly was this fellow?
Ye Bufan was not in a hurry to leave; he began to review every detail of the Black-Clothed Man in his mind.
The opponent was able to easily pass through Restrictions, enter the passage to get here, find the doorways on the walls, and even knew the final teleportation array like the back of his hand, clearly indicating extreme familiarity with the situation here.
Could it be that he had been here before?
He thought about it and decided it was impossible; if he had been here before, how could he not have taken the Heaven-Slaying Arrows and condensing spirit fruits?
After thinking for a long time without coming up with an answer, he stopped and began to recall the Black-Clothed Man’s fighting style.
Controlling space—he had absolutely never seen such a movement technique before.
If he didn't possess the Undying Golden Body Realm, he would probably have been instantly killed like those people later on.
How was the opponent able to do it? Could it be a space attribute?
But he possessed Chaotic Immortal Essence, capable of converting into any attribute, yet he couldn't control space. Where was the difference?
Ye Bufan began to ponder deeply; if he could learn the opponent's fighting style, even without improving his cultivation, his strength would greatly increase.
Where exactly was the difference? After thinking for a long time, his heart suddenly stirred.
Possessing a space attribute and completely controlling space should be vastly different, just like ordinary Immortals all possess Mental Energy, but cannot fully control and use it.
Yet he possessed the Divine Sense Blade, allowing him to unleash combat power far exceeding ordinary people.
It seemed that the Black-Clothed Man had a unique mystical art, just like a Divine Sense Cultivation Technique, which allowed him to control space.
It was a pity; he had Chaotic Immortal Essence and could transform into the space attribute, but he was far from reaching the opponent's level.
As for the method of controlling space, it was even more precious than a Divine Sense Cultivation Technique; it wasn't in the Ancient Medical Sect Legacy, and when he might obtain it could only depend on Opportunity.
Then he thought of the chaotic spiritual treasure in the Black-Clothed Man’s hand; he truly didn't know what kind of treasure it was—infinitely transformable, indestructible, and its attack power was many times greater than a top-grade Immortal Artifact.
If the opponent had used this chaotic spiritual treasure during their first sneak attack, he would probably have died on the spot long ago.
It seemed the opponent also didn't want to expose it easily; later, he was truly pushed to his limit by him, which was why he took it out.
Being able to control space, possessing the strength to kill across Ranks, and also having a chaotic spiritual treasure—this person's identity was definitely not simple.
Although Ye Bufan couldn't guess the opponent's identity, he had a general direction; he could ask Zhuge Qingyang and others if he encountered them later, and should be able to figure it out.
No longer thinking about the Black-Clothed Man, he flipped his wrist, and two Heaven-Slaying Arrows appeared in his palm—this was the biggest gain from this trip.
Ye Bufan held these two arrows in his hands, feeling extremely excited.
The previous Heaven-Slaying Arrow had shattered, causing him to lose his strongest trump card, but now he had found two at once.
Even someone as strong as the Black-Clothed Man had fled in panic when he took out the Sun-Extinguishing Bow, showing the power of this chaotic spiritual treasure.
The previous arrow was already somewhat damaged when he obtained it, which was why it shattered when he shot Shi Tu.
But these two arrows before him were completely different; they were perfectly intact Heaven-Slaying Arrows, with rich Chaos Qi and a chilling killing intent that made one's scalp tingle.
With this item, even if he encountered Gongshu Kan again, he would have a bit more confidence, and might find an Opportunity to kill him.
He put away the two arrows, feeling a slight regret that it would have been even better if he could have obtained a condensing spirit fruit.
Since there were no more treasures, he no longer lingered, turned and exited the passage, returning to the hall at the entrance.
As soon as he came out, he saw more than a dozen people waiting there; some he had seen before, others had arrived later, totaling seventeen or eighteen people.
The Big Beard Immortal Emperor from before had not appeared; either he was hiding, or he had been scared out of his wits and had already retreated from here.
Ye Bufan didn't want to bother with these people and prepared to exit through the door.
But he had only taken a few steps when a figure flashed, and a Big Guy Immortal Emperor blocked his path.
Although his cultivation was only at the Early Stage of Immortal Emperor, his demeanor was incredibly arrogant.
“Trying to leave? Who said you could leave?”
Ye Bufan glanced at him: “I leave when I want to leave. What does that have to do with you? A good dog doesn’t block the way, get out of my way!”
“What an arrogant brat!”
Seeing that the opponent was even more arrogant than himself, the Big Guy Immortal Emperor was enraged. “Hand over the treasures inside, and I can let you go, otherwise, it’s a dead end!”
