Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
The Immortal Palace Guardian Spirit appeared beside Ye Han like a ghost, silent and unseen.
Yet at that moment, Ye Han's entire body was enveloped in a mysterious, profound aura of runes, unfathomably intricate. As though completely cut off from the outside world, he remained utterly unaware of the guardian spirit's arrival.
The guardian spirit quietly watched Ye Han as he sat absorbed in meditation. A barely perceptible gleam of delight flashed through the spirit's eyes, and the corners of their mouth lifted slightly into a cunning, sinister smile.
The spirit gently raised an arm and slowly extended a hand, whiter than snow and translucent as jade. The nails on those long, slender fingers glinted with a sharp, icy light.
With a faint tremor of spirit light, slender vines rapidly grew from the fingertips of both of the Immortal Palace Guardian Spirit's hands, their growth visible to the naked eye.
The vines crossed and wound around one another like coils of incomparably sharp vine Sword-Rays, stabbing viciously toward Ye Han's body with deadly force!
In an instant, a string of crisp sounds rang out!
Pfft, pfft, pfft!!!!
The slender vines in the Immortal Palace Guardian Spirit's hands were like Sword-Rays that nothing could withstand. In the blink of an eye, they pierced Ye Han's body, passing straight through him!
Huh?!
Yet at that very moment, utter astonishment suddenly filled the Immortal Palace Guardian Spirit's eyes!
The reason was simple: when the spirit used their Secret Method to pierce Ye Han's body, the Ye Han before them instantly transformed into countless faintly glimmering Stars Runes, then vanished into the empty void!
At the same time!
Whoosh!!
With a shrill, piercing rush through the air, Ye Han's figure abruptly appeared beside the Immortal Palace Guardian Spirit like a ghost.
