Chapter 372: Shadow!

　　Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

　　A chilling wind blew across the land, stirring up a small cloud of sand.

　　Bei Feng’s face was extremely unsightly as he stood atop the mountain. A deep chill rose from the depths of his heart.

　　“Who are you?!”

　　Bei Feng looked at the person before him with disbelief. This person’s appearance was exactly the same as his, without the slightest difference at all. The only thing that was different was their aura.

　　Bei Feng’s aura carried a hint of devilishness within the calmness, while the aura from the other figure was pure evil!

　　Bei Feng did not notice that the black patterns at the corner of his eyes had reappeared, shimmering coldly. This kind of sinister light was even blacker than the night. Although a normal person would not be able to see Bei Feng’s features properly in the darkness, they would still be able to see the black glow on his face clearly!

　　“Hur hur, I am you, and you are me! We’re one body!” the figure in black robes said with a hoarse voice as he observed the ugly look on Bei Feng’s face.

　　“Acting mysterious!” Bei Feng roared with rage as he smashed a bear paw forward without hesitation!

　　A huge claw descended from the sky, slashing towards the figure in black!

　　“Boom!”

　　A palm as big as a heavenly pillar descended from the sky, smashing the figure into pieces!

　　Numerous huge boulders rolled down the mountain, and the sound of them crashing to the ground only rose up after a long time.

　　Bei Feng turned his body around quickly and furrowed his brows as he looked at the figure that had reappeared at the other side.

　　“I’ve said it before, I’m you, and you are me! We’re basically one and the same. Whatever you know, I know it as well!”

　　The black robed figure revealed a wide smile, flashing a row of sharp teeth as he looked at Bei Feng.

　　“Dang!”

　　“How could this be!”

　　With a flash of his intent, Soaring Rainbow shot out of Bei Feng’s body, slashing towards the figure’s head!

　　But unexpectedly, another Soaring Rainbow shot out from the sleeves of the black robed figure, colliding head on with Bei Feng’s dagger, creating a flash of dazzling sparkles!

　　“Die!” Bei Feng hollered angrily as a huge white wing appeared on his back.

　　Flapping his wing furiously, Bei Feng’s speed suddenly accelerated to a rate where it was impossible for the other party to react, instantly breaking through the air with a speed six times the speed of sound!

　　This speed was already Bei Feng’s limit. Right now, he could even feel a ripping feeling on his body!

　　“Giant Bear Punch!”

　　“Giant Bear Punch!”

　　The two of them actually used the same killing technique together!

　　“Boom!”

　　A huge shock wave blasted outwards. Some of the plants were even directly smashed apart in an instant!

　　The movements of both figures were so fast that it was impossible to follow them with the naked eye. At the same time, their flying daggers were clashing continuously in midair!

　　“Eagle Bear Slash!”

　　Bei Feng was becoming more crazed as he fought. The more blows he exchanged with the black-robed figure, the more shocked he became in his heart. That was because the martial techniques his opponent was using were exactly the same as his!

　　“Eagle Bear Slash!”

　　Bei Feng’s heart dropped. As expected, the black robed figure knew the same killing technique as well!

　　The fight between the two was incredibly quick. In just one minute, they had exchanged countless blows. Numerous large rocks and boulders were sent tumbling down the mountain!

　　“Heavenly Laws Embodiment Technique!”

　　Bei Feng’s body shook violently as his clothes were ripped apart. In an instant, he’d turned into a four-meter-tall giant!

　　A dark-red blood and Qi energy burst out of Bei Feng’s body, forming a layer of armor around him. His turbulent blood and Qi energy resembled a powerful devil or demon that’d just been birthed!

　　“Earth’s Hand, Impermanence!”

　　This was a martial technique that Bei Feng had just comprehended recently. The blood and Qi energy around Bei Feng surged violently as a strange magnetic force appeared in his hand!

　　This magnetic force was made up with the principles of the Earth’s magnetic force, gravitational force, magnetic field, and so on. A purple glazed light gathered in Bei Feng’s hand!

　　Soon, the light had formed into a palm-shaped energy the size of a hand basin. The palm was clear like crystal, and appeared dazzling and flawless like a beautiful art piece!

　　As if mirroring him, the black robed figure made the same action, forming an identical palm-shaped energy!

　　“Shu, shu!”

　　The two palm-shaped energy attacks did not emit any sounds, but each shot towards the opponent with the speed of lightning! As Bei Feng watched with wide eyes, the two palms collided together in midair!

　　Following that, numerous purple electric bolts the size of thumbs flashed out from the point of impact, quickly turning the dark sky bright with a lightning display!

　　“Kaboom!”

　　The two balls of energy grew calm for half a beat before exploding!

　　A terrible boom like that of heavenly thunder and of raging wave rang out!

　　Bei Feng and the black-robed figure did not manage to dodge in time, and were hit squarely in the face by the shock wave!

　　“Pu!”

　　Two sounds burst out as Bei Feng and the black-robed figure both spat out a huge mouthful of blood.

　　A huge—20-30 meter wide and 5-6 meter deep—pit had appeared between them!

　　An intense heat simmered in the pit, and a thick black smoke rose up into the sky continuously.

　　The land was completely charred as though it had been splashed with black paint.

　　Bei Feng felt like his limbs and organs had been shocked numb with electricity. He lost control over his blood and Qi, allowing them to rampage blindly through his veins!

　　“Hur hur, you are not my match! We have the same martial techniques and the same cultivation. However, you will tire while I will not!”

　　The black-robed figure stood up and walked over. His mouth were still dripping with black-colored blood. A sinister expression appeared on his face as he stretched out his tongue and licked the blood up.

　　This action immediately caused Bei Feng to feel even more agitated. This fellow had the exact same abilities and appearance as him. But could it not make such a disgusting expression while wearing his face?!

　　Bei Feng furrowed his brows and spat with disdain as though he’d just stepped on a pile of steaming dog poo.

　　The smile on the black figure’s face stiffened immediately. He had naturally seen Bei Feng’s actions.

　　“Who the hell are you! And don’t keep saying bullsh*t like you are me and I am you. Do you think that I will believe that?”

　　Bei Feng spat out some residual blood on his tongue and raised his head.

　　Truthfully, Bei Feng was mostly convinced by that person’s words. After all, his martial techniques were mostly not from this world. However, the other party had still managed to use them.

　　Bei Feng’s expression darkened. At the start, he’d thought that the black robed figure was only imitating his actions. But as they fought, he realized that even the timing that his opponent used certain skills were the same as him!

　　“Heh. I am you, and you are me! I am the darkness in your heart, and the evil in your soul! I guess you could call me your shadow.”

　　Shadow smiled widely, his teeth gleaming sinisterly under the starlight.

　　“You seem to be living really lethargically. Why don’t you let me eat you? Wouldn’t it be great to let me take your place in this dull world? Oh, right! I know the whereabouts of Mystic Moon as well!”

　　A cackling laughter drifted over. This voice seemed to be right beside Bei Feng’s ears, yet seemed as though it came from the mist!

　　Bei Feng seemed to have lost his soul as the voice wormed itself into his mind. The light in his eyes dimmed slowly, turning empty and void.

　　Shadow continued talking, his voice strangely enchanting, like the calls of the devil himself. It caused one to feel like giving in to its requests uncontrollably!

　　A huge grin surfaced on Shadow’s face as an undisguised excitement flashed across its eyes. As long as it swallowed Bei Feng, it would obtain a brand new life!

　　“Sha!”

　　“How…”

　　A bright sound like something cutting through cloth sounded out suddenly. Shadow looked down at the golden line wrapping around its body as his eyes widened with shock. His disbelief were stuck in his mouth, choked like a duck gripped by its neck.

　　“You said that you’re my shadow? Since even I don’t know where Mystic Moon is, how the hell would you know it? Besides that, I wonder if you have the Golden Ebony Fishing Rod as well?”

　　Bei Feng grinned widely, displaying eight bloody teeth.

　　“AH! I’ll be back! I’ll definitely return!” An ear-piercing scream rang out as Shadow struggled violently.

　　Bei Feng shook the Golden Ebony Fishing Rod lightly, instantly setting the hair-thin fishing line ablaze!

　　“Po!”

　　A light sound rang out, like an illusion being dispelled. The surroundings began to change and the mist disappeared.

　　The mountain was still a mountain, and Bei Feng was still standing on the same spot. He was still holding the Golden Ebony Fishing Rod in his hands. The only thing that confirmed that all these had not been a dream was the terrible scene of desolation around him!
