Chapter 600: Escape
In the dim underground cemetery, in the closed and limited space, Misha, who sneaked into her family cemetery, came into close combat with the man in black who was also an intruder. In the follow-up of this confrontation, the wind ability used by the mysterious man in black surprised Misha and even Dorothy who was far away. The man in black obviously did not leave Misha any room for surprise, and his next attack was launched immediately.
Without giving the other party any chance to breathe, the man in black used his finger, which had gathered a large amount of compressed air, to point at Misha in front of him and directly released several wind blades. Although these cutting wind blades were invisible, Misha, who had a superhuman sensitivity to airflow, immediately sensed the coming of the crisis. She also stretched out her hand forward and released an air cannon in the direction of the man in black. The invisible air cannon moved at high speed in the air of the underground cemetery and collided with the equally invisible group of wind blades. The wind blades that were cut by the air cannon were also disturbed in their trajectory and shot out in a deviated trajectory, hitting the stone pillars and rock walls of the tomb.
Seeing that the first attack was ineffective, the man in black immediately launched the next attack without stopping. He waved his hand, spun around, and then a gust of wind suddenly rolled up, forming a sudden airflow that blew towards Misha, as if he wanted to suppress Misha in the form of a gust of wind and then continue to attack.
Misha was not to be outdone by the attack and immediately blew a gust of wind to counter it. For a moment, the two air currents blowing in opposite directions collided in the center of the underground tomb. After the collision, they swept rapidly around. For a moment, the turbulence formed by the two winds that collided with each other swept the entire underground tomb without either side being able to control it, and blew up the dust that had accumulated inside the tomb for many years. In the scattered dust, the visibility in the underground tomb, which was already dim, became even lower, making Misha, who had night vision, unable to see normally for a moment, and she became alert and vigilant around.
Faced with such a scene, both sides took different countermeasures. Misha immediately blew a circle of wind around her to disperse the dust around her and ensure visibility around her to prevent sneak attacks. The man in black took out a talisman from his clothes, wrapped a gold coin in it, and threw it forward. As the luster on the gold coin disappeared, the talisman burned to ashes in the air. Then, at the place where the talisman was burned out, a strong light suddenly burst out, and a small light ball emitting a bright light was suspended in the air of the tomb, becoming a suspended strong light that illuminated the surroundings. Suddenly, the visibility in the underground tomb increased sharply, and the man in black could see the outline of Misha's shadow through the dust.
"What... This is the lamp seal used by Zhao Xian! What is he going to do?"
Seeing the light coming on in the dark space, Misha couldn't help but think vigilantly. While she was on guard, she immediately shot out several wind blades towards the dark shadow in front of her that was illuminated by the light, and took the opportunity to grasp the opponent's position to launch a round of attack.
However, contrary to Misha's expectations, the wind blade that came through the dust and mist and attacked him did not dodge in the usual sense. Instead, his whole body shrank, and he quickly melted to the ground like an ice sculpture, turning into a dark shadow that spread around. Misha could not see the specific changes of the man in black through the dust, but to her, the man in black seemed to have suddenly disappeared underground.
'Can he still burrow underground?'
Seeing the sudden disappearance of the black-clad figure in front of her, Misha immediately focused her eyes on the ground in case the other party suddenly emerged from somewhere. However, she did not wait until the black-clad figure emerged from the ground, but saw another strange scene.
A shadow, illuminated by the suspended lights in the tomb, emerged from the fog in front of Misha, and quickly came towards Misha, twisting and winding like a snake, close to the ground.
The black shadow without any entity and independent existence quickly swam to not far in front of Misha. Misha's eyes widened when she saw it, and then immediately threw out several wind blades to attack the snake-like black shadow. However, the black shadow dodged the attack of the wind blades one by one by quickly twisting and deforming like a piece of plasticine, leaving only sharp cuts on the ground by the wind blades. Finally, when the snake-like black shadow swam in front of Misha, it quickly spread into a shadow ball like overturned ink, and then from the shadow ball, the figure of the man in black quickly emerged, holding a dagger and quickly attacking Misha. At this moment, he was less than one meter away from Misha.
Faced with this sudden situation, Misha's expression froze, and then she raised one foot and stomped on the ground. The moment her foot touched the ground, a ball of air pressure condensed on the sole of her foot suddenly exploded, forming a diffuse turbulence that attacked the surroundings. The man in black who had already rushed to Misha's side was immediately swayed by this storm. Misha took this opportunity to immediately launch a counterattack. She swung her sword quickly and cut the man in black who was standing unsteadily in front of her in half.
However, just when Misha thought the outcome was decided, something shocking happened. The black shadow that was cut into two pieces by Misha unexpectedly turned into two dark phantoms in mid-air and twisted and disappeared, leaving no blood or corpse. This shocked Misha, and her eyes were filled with horror.
'What? '
"Watch out behind you!"
At this time, the so-called detective's warning voice rang in Misha's heart again. After hearing this voice, Misha turned around immediately, and then saw another snake-like black shadow swimming towards Misha at high speed in the dust behind her. From the black shadow, another man in black quickly emerged and attacked Misha with a dagger in his hand.
This distance was not enough for Misha to use her wind power to counterattack. She turned around hastily, reached out her hand, and tightly grasped the black-clothed man's dagger with her left hand. The dagger with the "shadow" enchantment quickly cut Misha's gloves, but Misha temporarily grasped the entire dagger with her solid "stone" skin. Although her fingers were not cut off immediately, they still bled.
Holding the weapon that was stabbing at her, in order to resolve the crisis, Misha raised the sword in her right hand and slashed at the man in black at close range. At this distance, the man in black had no possibility of escape. Just when Misha's sword was about to reach the man in black's forehead, an accident happened.
All of a sudden, Misha's fatal final attack came to a sudden halt. Her sword, which had already chopped to a few centimeters in front of the black-clothed man's indifferent mask, suddenly stopped. No matter how hard Misha tried, she could not advance an inch.
At this moment, Misha seemed to be restrained by a powerful force and could not make any movement. However, there was no other external object around her to restrain her body. She seemed to be possessed by a powerful ghost and could not make any movement. However, there was no ghost appearing on the battlefield just now.
'This is…'
With eyes wide open, Misha moved the only eye that could move in her body to look around, and then she saw a scene that surprised her even more. On the floor of the underground tomb, Misha's shadow illuminated by the floating lights not far away was showing abnormalities at this moment.
Pitch-black shadow ropes extended from the shadow of the man in black in front of her and connected to Misha's shadow, as if binding Misha's shadow tightly at all places. The shadow of the man in black was doing completely different actions from its real body at this moment. The shadow ropes it threw out had no corresponding entity at all. Misha, who was bound by the shadow, could not even move her real body. The restraint from her own shadow seemed to be transmitted to her real body.
“This is… the Path of Reflection of Souls?!”
