How was this possible?

Master Wan stared in disbelief at the mud covering his legs. It was as if the mud had deliberately and completely restricted his movements.

What terrified Master Wan even more was that the mud that was originally only at his ankles had started climbing inexorably upwards. It was now slowly rising towards his calves!

“I’ve caught you.” A girl’s laughing voice suddenly sounded in Master Wan’s ears.

Master Wan raised his head in shock and suddenly saw that Ji Fengyan, who had been missing all this while, was now standing before his very eyes.

“How… how did you…” Master Wan was completely stunned.

Ji Fengyan smiled and the evil-vanquishing sword in her hand gleamed. The evil-vanquishing sword, that glittered with a cold light, was now at Master Wan’s neck.

Master Wan wanted to use his arms to block it.

But to his complete amazement, both his arms were also covered with hard mud. It was as if his entire body had been buried in the ground. He could not move an inch.

What on earth was going on!

The group of elders had thought that Master Wan could defeat Ji Fengyan. But their hearts sank at the latest development.

No one had imagined Ji Fengyan would defeat that Master Wan.

And defeated in such an incredible way.

“You know the Art of Breath-holding?” Master Wan looked at Ji Fengyan with wide eyes.

In order to completely hide one’s aura, one had to hold one’s breath for a time. The reason Master Wan could become the chief of assassins was because he had completely mastered the art of holding his breath. Even holding his breath for half an hour presented no difficulties to him.

But…

Just now, Ji Fengyan’s aura had completely vanished. Could it be that she also knew this method?

Ji Fengyan laughed as she shook her head.

Hold her breath?

She also knew how to do that, but if it was just the Art of Breath-holding, she was at most on par with Master Wan.

That was not the result she wanted.

“There’s something called Hiding in the Earth. Have you heard of it?” Ji Fengyan spoke with a smile.

The art of transforming yin into yang, the source of refining the five elements.

These were the basics of immortal cultivators. Just now, Ji Fengyan had merely used the skill of Hiding in the Earth. Hidden by layers of mud, naturally no one had been able to find her aura.

And…

It made it much easier for her to capture Master Wan.

No matter how rapidly he moved, he still had to step on the ground.

Hidden within the mud, Ji Fengyan had naturally been completely aware of even the faintest movements on the ground. With that, no matter how fast Master Wan moved, Ji Fengyan could locate him in an instant.

Master Wan had never even heard about the Hiding in the Earth technique that Ji Fengyan mentioned. However, this time, he had been completely defeated.

“I’ve lost.” Master Wan took a deep breath and said bluntly, “Kill me.”

Ji Fengyan laughed softly and withdrew the evil-vanquishing sword.

“Kill you? I’ve no interest in doing that. But I told you that in our bet, we would only bet on two lives. One is mine and the other’s is the Eldest Princess’s life.” Ji Fengyan retreated slightly, her finger tracing figures in the air. The mud that covered Master Wan’s body rapidly retreated.

With that, she leapt onto the back of the stone elephant. She looked smilingly at the ashen group of elders.

“You’ve lost again.”

Master Yue and the others were shocked. A despair that they had never felt before fell on their hearts.

It was as if the person before them was not a young fifteen year-old girl, but a demon from heaven.

How could humans fight it?!
