In a flash of light and thunder!
The shadow moved forward, and Bai Ye spun around abruptly, sword Ning Shuang in hand, sweeping it with force.
The shadow was instantly sliced apart, falling to the ground before quickly merging back into one and rapidly retracting backward.
Without hesitation, Bai Ye moved forward, drawing the Dragon's Roar. He pulled back the bolt and fired at the shadow.
*Bang!*
As the trigger was pulled, the plum-shaped muzzle of the Dragon's Roar rotated, and five azure beams of light shot out.
After the gunshot, five holes the size of human heads were blasted into the ground.
The power was undeniable, befitting a futuristic weapon. If it had hit a person, it would likely have torn them to shreds with a single shot.
However, it had no effect on the shadow. The shadow rapidly retreated, soon vanishing into the darkness.
Bai Ye strode forward and quickly discovered that the tent-like structure was a hall of mirrors, with various funhouse mirrors before him.
Bai Ye's body was sometimes stretched, sometimes made very fat, constantly deforming, looking quite comical.
But at this moment…
Bai Ye walked past a funhouse mirror, and surprisingly, his reflection did not appear in it.
Bai Ye decisively dodged to the side and pulled the trigger again.
With a crash, accompanied by five energy beams illuminating the surroundings, that funhouse mirror was instantly shattered.
"Playing games with me?" Bai Ye raised the Dragon's Roar and slowly paced forward, saying, "If you dare, come out again!"
Although there were overseers outside the structure, the interior was not exactly safe.
This was a supernatural area, so even a fool would know that forbidden zones here were bound to spawn mysterious supernatural creatures intent on killing people!
Bai Ye shouted as he continued to walk forward.
Suddenly, two snake-like shadows reappeared behind Bai Ye, attempting to ambush him once more, slowly closing in from behind.
But Bai Ye, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, spun around and pulled the trigger.
*Bang!*
The muzzle of the Dragon's Roar swiveled, and five beams of light once again struck the ground, shattering it. The shadows quickly retreated and vanished without a trace.
Bai Ye observed his surroundings carefully, wondering what those shadows were.
In his previous life, Bai Ye wouldn't dare claim to have seen all the ghosts in the Death Amusement Park, but he had certainly encountered sixty to seventy percent. In Bai Ye's memory, there didn't seem to be any ghost that could transform into a shadow.
Thinking this, Bai Ye slowly began to retreat, then suddenly lunged forward, kicking the glass on the side.
The glass instantly shattered, and at that very moment, two dark shadows appeared before quickly retracting.
Bai Ye curled his lips, not overly anxious.
He had a way to lock them down, and it was quite simple. If they had been paying attention, they should have noticed that the Ning Shuang sword, which had been suspended beside Bai Ye, was now gone.
Bai Ye had utilized the sword's "Frost Illusion"!
The first time he was attacked, Bai Ye reacted purely on instinct. Then, Bai Ye discovered that the shadow had a tangible sensation when it was struck.
Tangible sensation meant a physical form. Therefore, after the sword transformed into frost, the frost mist spread out in all directions. As long as the dark shadow came into contact with the frost mist, Bai Ye would be able to detect it immediately.
And compared to dealing with the shadows, Bai Ye was more curious about what these shadows were. After several attacks, Bai Ye found that these things didn't seem to be ghosts from the Death Amusement Park.
Bai Ye observed his surroundings as he thought, but the other party was exceptionally cautious, maintaining its stealth and not attacking rashly.
Bai Ye pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned and pulled the trigger again.
The Dragon's Roar fired energy beams, shattering another funhouse mirror.
The next instant, Bai Ye lowered the muzzle, making a motion as if to replace the energy crystal.
Weren't they cautious?
Caution implied a low attack frequency and a greater cherishing of each attack opportunity.
So, he would present a weakness to them and see if they could resist.
As expected, the moment Bai Ye lowered his gun, two dark shadows rapidly circled around a funhouse mirror and lunged towards Bai Ye.
Bai Ye looked up, a smile on his lips.
They had been lured out!
"Hexagonal Prism Shield!"
A hexagonal, transparent shield suddenly appeared before Bai Ye, and he snatched it up.
*Bang, bang!*
The two shadows collided with the hexagonal prism shield, emitting a dull thud.
The next instant, Bai Ye fiercely raised the Dragon's Roar!
He didn't actually need to replace the energy crystal!
*Bang!*
The Dragon's Roar fired, five energy beams shooting forward and shattering the funhouse mirror. Immediately after, a desperate scream rang out.
A man, clutching his shoulder, retreated incessantly. His right arm had been grazed by an energy beam, instantly turning to ash, becoming a mass of bloody, pulpy remains and bone fragments.
"So that's how it is!" Bai Ye said, "Someone from the world of psychics? Those two dark shadows must be your ability, right?"
Bai Ye strode forward, aiming his gun at the man.
The man looked at Bai Ye in terror and shouted, "Don't kill me! If you kill me, you'll be haunted by a back spirit. I didn't get a ghost card..."
*Bang!*
Bai Ye completely ignored the man and pulled the trigger.
Five energy beams struck the man's chest, and his chest exploded, disintegrating. Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and then a head and the lower half of his body crashed to the ground.
Then…
Bai Ye was stunned!
The opponent had been blown to smithereens with a single shot, surely dead beyond any doubt, but…
Bai Ye had not received a God Stone shard!
This meant the man had been telling the truth; he truly hadn't obtained a ghost card and was not a ghost at all.
"What's going on?"
If he wasn't a ghost, why did he attack him?
At the same time…
Dark smoke rose from behind Bai Ye, slowly condensing behind him.
The back spirit had arrived!
Bai Ye spat on the ground and cursed at the half-corpse, "What the hell? If you're not a ghost, why attack like that!"
Bai Ye felt he had been tricked, and inexplicably so. But sometimes, things weren't that complicated. The participant from the world of psychics had simply seen Bai Ye before. Like Bai Ye, he had recently arrived in the Red Clay Marsh. He had previously been at Mount Bagong and had entered the Tomb of the King of Huai'an, and knew that Bai Ye possessed a God Stone shard.
Since that was the case, it was normal to try and kill him, wasn't it?
Even though the Human Card to kill the Ghost Card came with a price, the God Stone shard was an irresistible temptation, and then…
He had ended up getting himself killed!
Bai Ye, on the other hand, was purely unlucky. Cursing, he turned and fled, trying to create some distance while the back spirit was still condensing.
