The white-robed youth grabbed at Xia Tianqiong in the void, seemingly imprisoning the space and rendering him unable to move.
Xia Tianqiong was slightly startled. Before she could react, the identity token in her hand suddenly lit up with a dazzling golden light.
Suddenly, he felt a sense of relief, and the restraints were instantly lifted.
The golden light did not stop, and quickly spread throughout his body.
From a distance, it looks like a translucent golden eggshell, enveloping the summer sky.
The young man in the white robe was not surprised by this scene; instead, his smile deepened.
"I want to see just how tough the protective golden shield of the Ghost Realm Bank really is."
Its right hand held a sword-like finger, pointing it at Xia Tianqiong.
A small black sword appeared in the space in front of his finger, as if it came from the void. The next moment, it turned into a black streak of light and aimed directly at Xia Tianqiong's face.
Xia Tianqiong subconsciously used Shadow Teleportation to teleport into the shadow of someone in the crowd.
When he reappeared, he thought he had dodged the attack, but suddenly he saw a small crack appear in the space in front of him, from which a small black sword flew out, only an inch away from the tip of his nose.
Click!
The black sword struck the golden light shield, producing a crisp, thunderous sound.
The light shield rippled slightly, but otherwise remained unchanged.
The small black sword, however, was shattered and vanished into nothingness in the air.
"This protective golden light is indeed powerful!"
Xia Tianqiong finally felt relieved and looked at the white-robed youth. His expression turned cold, and at the same time, doubt arose in his heart.
Before humans actively attack the supernatural entity, it must first apply the rules of death. Only after humans trigger the rules can it take action.
This is the rule that all the supernatural must follow.
But how can this guy attack people directly?
Is it a person, or just a monster?
Wait a minute, it just called itself weird.
Never mind all that, since we've already started, let's just take it down first.
Xia Tianqiong spotted his opponent and used Shadow Teleportation again, appearing directly in the shadow behind the white-robed youth.
He patted his shoulder with his left hand, preparing to unleash his flower-slapping technique.
With his right hand, he aimed a Sky-Splitting Technique at the back of the head and slammed it down.
This attack combination has been used many times and is now highly proficient. In the past, it has rarely failed to deal with the supernatural or other monster hunters.
But this time, something unexpected happened.
Just as his left hand was about to strike the other person's shoulder, he suddenly felt a counterforce that sent his hand flying away.
The flower-shooting technique was not put to use.
The right hand's space-tearing technique was successfully executed, tearing a spatial rift about a foot long at the back of the white-robed youth's head.
Under normal circumstances, it would directly tear the skull apart, causing serious damage.
But the white-robed youth simply shook his head, and the spatial rift was instantly shattered.
Xia Tianqiong's eyes widened suddenly. This is not scientific!
How did it do that?
Huang Yu's notification sounded again, "Boss, it is surrounded by a layer of spatial power. My spatial power is too weak to break through it."
Huang Yu was only at the Wild Ghost level, while the opponent was at least at the Evil Ghost level.
Although both are spatial powers, their levels of power are clearly different.
A black longsword appeared in the white-robed youth's hand, and he swung it fiercely behind him.
At the critical moment, Xia Tianqiong teleported away again.
"You also possess spatial powers; it seems you've formed a contract with a Void Monster."
The white-robed youth tilted his head to examine Xia Tianqiong, his interest growing stronger. "He's really disgracing our Void Clan by making a contract with such lowly humans."
As it was speaking, it suddenly interlaced its fingers and pushed forward forcefully.
Dozens of small black swords appeared out of thin air and shot towards Xia Tianqiong, who was not far away.
The square, where a gambling match was taking place and where hundreds of strange beings had gathered, suddenly scattered and hid far away.
Even the two strange beings who were gambling stopped their match.
Xia Tianqiong didn't dodge, since she couldn't avoid it anyway, so she simply stood still and let dozens of small swords pierce the golden light shield.
Like a calm lake, countless raindrops fall instantly, creating ripples that spread across the light shield, interfering with each other to form wondrous waves, before finally returning to calm.
"That's all there is to it!"
Xia Tianqiong was completely reassured about the defensive capabilities of the golden light shield.
He wasn't idle either; with his left hand, he used a bronze mirror to cast a mirror-based immobilization spell, while with his right hand, he released a soul-binding white silk ribbon.
The Gambling Ghost is already a powerful ghost; its Mirror Freeze Technique should be able to freeze the evil ghost for a second or two.
However, the young man in white was only frozen for a moment, and broke free in less than a second.
However, that was enough time; the white silk ribbon was successfully put around the neck, suspending it in mid-air.
The Hanged Ghost is also a malevolent ghost, so the white-robed youth won't be able to break free so easily this time.
"Place your bets! Place your bets! Young Master Leng of the Leng family is facing off against a mysterious and unknown human! Everyone, come and place your bets!"
Among the crowd of onlookers, there was a strange creature who ran a gambling den, and suddenly began shouting loudly.
This immediately drew countless enthusiastic responses.
"I'm betting ten thousand ghost money on the young master of the Leng family."
"I'm also betting on Young Master Leng, 80,000 ghost money."
"I'm betting three thousand ghost money on that human."
The strange creatures crowded around to place their bets. Although the white-robed youth was currently hanging in the air and struggling, the vast majority of the strange creatures placed their bets on him.
Very few people bet on the summer sky.
Suddenly, a group of strange and eerie creatures arrived at the square.
They are all strangely shaped. They look like humans, but some have vines for arms, some have tree roots for legs, and many have branches or flowers growing on their heads.
