Then he realized that there was suddenly another person behind him, and the cold wind he felt was actually a palm strike from that person.
After dodging the palm strike, another gust followed, the person shadowing him closely.
Ling Zhenfei was surprised because he only saw a fleeting shadow, unable to discern an actual figure.
Ling Zhenfei stepped with the Blooming Step Technique, quickly sidestepping two steps to evade the attack, then threw two punches behind him.
These two punches were from the Heaven-Splitting Ten Fists, immensely powerful, but hit nothing, as if he was being attacked by a ghost without a physical form.
Ling Zhenfei was very angry, and another palm strike came at him, its power immense. Ling Zhenfei found it strange since he felt the person was always behind him.
Frustrated, Ling Zhenfei quickly dodged and punched twice toward his back, but still, there was no one there, which astonished him. How could it be? How could the person be invisible?
But it was inexplicable; the person always attacked from behind, making it impossible for Ling Zhenfei to get a clear look at them.
Ling Zhenfei had already deployed his Divine Sense, but even with it, he couldn't locate the person's position.
Nevertheless, that person's strength matched Ling Zhenfei's, making it impossible for either side to gain the upper hand.
Ling Zhenfei knew that if he could see the person and use his Heaven-Splitting Ten Fists to attack, that person would surely be no match, but dealing with an unseen opponent was daunting.
After dodging a few moves, Ling Zhenfei moved to a nearby pillar, leaning his back against it, trying to see how the person would attack now.
When Ling Zhenfei leaned against the pillar, the attack suddenly ceased, and all around turned silent.
Not even a sound was heard; Ling Zhenfei expanded his Divine Sense around to find some clue of the person.
Ling Zhenfei wasn't sure if there were ghosts in the world, but he was certain this was a person with a special cultivation technique.
This person's position couldn't be locked by his Divine Sense, reminding Ling Zhenfei of someone, similar to the person he met at the hotel warning him.
Back then, even after saying several words, he couldn't ascertain the person's position, much like this situation.
Thinking of this, Ling Zhenfei said aloud to the surroundings, "Friend, since you're here, why not just come out and say something?"
After Ling Zhenfei spoke, a voice whispered in his ear, "I can indeed show myself, but my appearance will mark your death."
Ling Zhenfei replied, "Don't speak so rashly. You ambushed me just now, and you know you're not my match."
The person responded, "So what? Everyone has moments of negligence. As soon as you make a slight mistake, I can take your life."
What the person said was true; they had attacked several times earlier, each move exploiting his blind spot at the back.
This surprised Ling Zhenfei greatly, not knowing how the person moved so quickly to his back.
"Should I kill you first to ensure you can't kill me?"
The person chuckled, "You want to kill me? Wishful thinking. You probably don't even know where I am now."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "You're really underestimating me. Do you think I don't know you're hiding above my head?"
As Ling Zhenfei finished speaking, he directed a burst of Northern Spiritual Energy upward. While talking earlier, he had been gathering energy for the Sky Piercing Finger and now unleashed it above his head.
Bang!
A large chunk of sand and stones from above was knocked down by Ling Zhenfei's finger attack.
A terrified voice followed, "Boy, you actually knew I was above you, using a dirty trick against me."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, knowing the move didn't hit the person but definitely scared them, proving they were indeed hiding above him.
He glanced upward, his sharp sight catching a dark figure clinging to the ceiling in the dark.
The figure was dressed in black nightwalker clothes, with a black face mask and hood, completely blending into the darkness. The dim lighting of the underground parking lot cast no illumination on the ceiling's shadows.
With no hesitation, Ling Zhenfei launched two punches at the person upon seeing them.
These punches aimed at the person who didn't engage directly, but instead ran along the wall like a gecko.
"Trying to escape? It's not that easy."
Ling Zhenfei couldn't let the person escape. Like a ghost, who knew when they might appear above his head?
He closely pursued, determined to resolve the matter once and for all.
The person's movements were also swift; without Ling Zhenfei's keen eyesight, he wouldn't have been able to track them.
"Friend, you've been discovered, why not stop and fight properly?"
The person replied while running, "I just don't fight you openly. I shouldn't even be talking to you."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "But do you still think you can escape now?"
"Whether I can escape remains to be seen." The person continued running along the ceiling, as if a frenzied gecko.
Ling Zhenfei was faster on the ground than on the ceiling due to obstacles like pipes hindering the path above.
Thud!
The person jumped down from the ceiling, landing on the ground.
"Why did you come down? Run, let's see where you can go."
Ling Zhenfei grinned, looking at the person before him, who appeared to be in his forties, with a short, slender frame.
Despite the face mask, under Ling Zhenfei's Perspective Eye, nothing was hidden.
"Don't push me too far," the person said to Ling Zhenfei, glaring fiercely.
Ling Zhenfei chuckled, "You came to kill me, how does that mean I'm pushing you too far?"
"Chasing me relentlessly, aren't you just trying to force me down? Do you think you can handle me now that I've come down?" The person's face darkened, clearly ready to fight Ling Zhenfei.
"Do you think you're a match for me?"
Ling Zhenfei spoke confidently since the person's strength was only at the mid-stage of Zhiyi Boundary, much lower than Ling Zhenfei's. If it came to a face-to-face fight, this person wouldn't stand a chance against him.
"Who can say who will win without a fight?"
The person was stubborn but evidently wary of Ling Zhenfei.
