Realm of the Night God

Chapter 705: Almost Got Caught

The protective barrier shattered, and his body suffered a severe impact. The Spirit Master spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his face turned pale in an instant.

The power gap between the two sides was too great, and their cultivation techniques were not on the same level. Therefore, the Spirit Master was unable to form a true opposition against Yang Haoran.

It was precisely because of this that the Spirit Master was defeated in a short time, and Yang Haoran didn't even need to use his full strength. If Yang Haoran had used his full strength, the Spirit Master would not have just spat out blood; he would have been in an even more precarious situation.

With a shocked heart, the Spirit Master crawled up from the ground. According to his understanding of Yang Haoran, Yang Haoran had only become the Lecheng Burial Master a few years ago. In such a short time, Yang Haoran's strength should be limited, but the reality was that the Spirit Master's strength was far inferior to Yang Haoran's.

As a Spirit Master, he considered himself to be on the same level as Yang Haoran, but the fact was that there was a huge gap between their strengths. This made him both shocked and disbelieving.

Just as he stood up, a ghost head appeared right in front of him. It was the Ghost Slaying Soul Chain that had attacked him earlier, but it didn't immediately attack him again. Instead, it let out a piercing laugh, looking at him with a provocative gaze.

Meanwhile, Yang Haoran took out a soul gathering bead and summoned another Ghost Slaying Soul Chain, which returned to his side. The Guardian Spirit was spat out from his mouth, and several Yin spirit powers condensed into a chain, binding the Guardian Spirit and forcing it into the soul gathering bead.

The Spirit Master witnessed all of this and felt an unprecedented sense of humiliation. His anger burned, and he flashed to the side, his hands quickly forming seals as if preparing to summon a spirit again.

When he moved, the Ghost Slaying Soul Chain that had been watching him also moved, letting out a ghostly laugh as it pounced on him with even greater speed than before.

The Spirit Master was shocked and panicked, causing his seals to fail. He had to give up on summoning a spirit for the time being and focus on dodging the Ghost Slaying Soul Chain's attacks.However, at this moment, the other Ghost Slaying Soul Chain, which had handed the Guardian Spirit over to Yang Haoran, also targeted him and launched an attack!

One Ghost Slaying Soul Chain was already difficult to handle, and now two were attacking him simultaneously. The pressure increased exponentially, making it even harder to dodge.

As he dodged, he repeatedly tried to reform his seals to summon a spirit, but the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains ruthlessly interrupted him every time.

With a disbelieving heart, he dodged and searched for an opportunity to counterattack. His spiritual power collided with the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains, producing a series of explosions. The black power generated by the explosions ravaged the area, breaking trees, stirring up rocks and weeds, and shattering the damp ground. The barrier couldn't withstand such intense power fluctuations and finally shattered.

In just a moment, the Spirit Master was defeated, not only spat out blood but also surrounded by the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains. The thick chains coiled around him, forming a circular prison that trapped him.

The Spirit Master didn't give up resisting, still struggling to break free from the chain prison. However, his efforts were in vain, and he couldn't escape. Every time he tried to burst out from below, the two ghost heads would force him back, and he would suffer even more injuries under their fierce attacks.

Outside the chain prison, Yang Haoran watched all of this, not using his full strength but also not intending to spare the Spirit Master's life. Although he wanted to obtain information about other Spirit Masters from the Spirit Master, he didn't need to keep him alive to do so. He could obtain the information he wanted through the ghost eye even if the Spirit Master died.

At this moment, the barrier has already shattered, and the power fluctuation formed by the battle between the two has spread, and it's possible that others have already sensed it. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to kill the Spirit Master directly and extract its soul to leave this place.

Under his control, the two massive ghost heads let out a chilling, blood-curdling laugh, and then suddenly pounced on the Spirit Master below.

At this time, the Spirit Master had already lost most of its combat power. In Yang Haoran's view, this one hit was enough to take the Spirit Master's life. With the Spirit Master's current state, it was impossible to block the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains.

However, just at this moment, a black Great Hand suddenly condensed in the air above the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains, although its size was enormous, its speed was incredibly fast. It grabbed the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains in one swift motion and then slammed them towards Yang Haoran's location.

All of this happened too suddenly, and the opponent's actions were also swift and decisive, without any hesitation. By the time Yang Haoran reacted, the two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains were already inches away from him.

Yang Haoran's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he didn't make a single move. The two Ghost Slaying Soul Chains were about to hit him when they suddenly dispersed into Yin Qi.

The Ghost Slaying Soul Chain was a technique he had mastered, and he could control it to attack targets, as well as disperse it. This was a very simple task, requiring only a thought.

However, just as the Ghost Slaying Soul Chain had dispersed, the massive hand formed a fist and slammed towards his body!

The fist hadn't even arrived, but the wind from it had already stirred up the sand and rocks on the ground. Faced with this situation, Yang Haoran's first thought was to dodge. As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, the world in front of him suddenly changed.

The incoming fist disappeared, the crumbling old building also vanished, and the Spirit Master he had beaten half to death also disappeared. The world in front of him had transformed into a completely unfamiliar world.

He thought to himself, "This is bad!" Yang Haoran knew he had fallen victim to the ghost's Illusion Technique.

From the moment he attacked the Spirit Master, he had been on guard against the ghost's Illusion Technique, so he had kept his ghost eye open. Although he hadn't activated it to its fullest extent, ordinary malevolent spirits wouldn't be able to affect him much with their Illusion Techniques.

However, now that he had fallen victim to the Illusion Technique despite having his ghost eye open, it could only mean one thing: the ghost that had cast the Illusion Technique was extremely powerful.

Although he was shocked by the ghost's power, his reaction was very swift. The moment he realized he had fallen victim to the Illusion Technique, his body immediately disappeared from its original location, dodging to the side.

At the same time, he mobilized the Yin spirit power within his body to inject into his ghost eye. In an instant, his ghost eye emitted a burst of black smoke, and the world in front of him shattered, revealing the real world.

Boom!!

A massive explosion, and the giant tree behind Yang Haoran was smashed to pieces by the enormous fist. The fist's momentum didn't decrease, and it continued to smash into the mountain behind, stopping only when it had created a massive crater. The sound was deafening, and the ground shook violently, causing the sturdy mountain to collapse.

If Yang Haoran hadn't dodged in time, the massive fist would have hit him instead of the tree and the mountain behind him!

Under such a powerful attack, the protective Yin Qi on his body would be unable to protect him, and it would definitely collapse in an instant. Without the protection of the Yin Qi, his physical body would be unable to withstand the attack, and even if it didn't kill him, it would definitely inflict severe injuries.

The opponent's goal was clear: to use the Illusion Technique to control him, or to disrupt his mind, and then strike him down with one hit. Even if they couldn't kill him, they would at least severely injure him, making it easy to deal with him afterwards.

It was just that the opponent probably hadn't expected his reaction speed to be so fast, and he had managed to dodge in time, causing the attack to miss.

Although he had successfully avoided the attack, there was still a huge risk involved. If the opponent changed their tactics, the outcome might not be the same.
