353: Chapter 353: Regeneration Skills 353: Chapter 353: Regeneration Skills Every person who has ever used a smartphone has received junk messages, but this message was filled with an overt threat, and what shocked Ye Shikai even more was the eerie symbol below the text.
Five Ghosts surrounding a skeleton.
Tomb Spirit Organization.
Ye Shikai’s first reaction was that they had the audacity to provoke him again.
Refining Mo had one of his arms torn off by him, and Illusion Fox had left the organization.
Logically, they should have been weakened, so how could they still dare to cause trouble?
And this time, they even directly confronted Ye Shikai himself.
“Why should I agree to you, Refining Mo?
Just because you ask me to come, I should come?
Wouldn’t that be losing face?” Ye Shikai operated his smartphone and quickly composed a message to send back, confident that in the Tomb Spirit Organization, no one but Refining Mo would dare to directly challenge him to a fight.
“A bomb has been planted on a certain subway line in Hong Kong.
If I don’t see you by six o’clock, I’ll detonate it.” Refining Mo’s reply came back quickly.
“That’s quite sinister.” Ye Shikai looked at the message and silently cursed.
Checking his watch, he saw there were only fifteen minutes left until six o’clock.
He quickly harnessed his Inner Strength, and his figure disappeared into the night like a ghost.
At the same time, Ye Shikai immediately sent a message to Cheng Luoqi, instructing her to promptly check the subway for any suspicious items.
She was the squad leader of the SAD Special Forces and could mobilize the rapid response troops, who were also highly professional.
“Did you receive a message from the Tomb Spirit Organization, or are you heading to find them now?” As soon as Cheng Luoqi heard the news, she anxiously asked.
Indeed, a woman’s intuition is sensitive, for she knew Ye Shikai well.
If it were not for some reason that he didn’t immediately go looking for the bomb, it could only mean one thing — he had something more important to deal with, which must undoubtedly be related to the Tomb Spirit Organization.
As the squad leader of the SAD Special Forces, Cheng Luoqi and all of SAD felt disgraced because of the Tomb Spirit Organization.
Their honor had been rendered worthless, whether it was due to a failed operation five years ago or their resurgence in Hong Kong now.
Being under constant criticism, she eagerly wished to personally take down Refining Mo.
“You don’t need to worry about this.” Ye Shikai spoke in a cold tone, as a superior officer to a subordinate soldier.
Back when he was the captain of the Dragon Teeth Special Forces, Cheng Luoqi had come to Yanjing for an exchange and training, and he had been her instructor.
“Without the power, what could you do if you went?
If you want to bring him to justice, you have to listen to me.” Before she could finish, Ye Shikai sharply interrupted her.
Hong Kong Park was a wetland park but not located in the city center.
To save time, Ye Shikai used his Inner Strength and hurried over.
“They’re under renovation.” When Ye Shikai arrived at the park entrance, the iron gate was firmly closed.
The park was being refurbished, so it was not open to the public these days, which suited meeting Refining Mo even better.
Jumping over the several meters high iron railing, Ye Shikai slowly made his way into the park.
In the center was an artificial lake with a large bridge constructed of marble spanning over it.
The bridge itself was built of steel-reinforced concrete, and underneath were sturdy wooden piles supporting it.
And there, a black silhouette stood quietly above, motionless like a lonely statue.
“Refining Mo, what matters do you have in seeking me out?” Ye Shikai walked up to him, and as the two met on the bridge that was neither wide nor narrow, a fierce battle was inevitable.
“Hmph, I seek you out for revenge, of course.” Refining Mo slowly lifted his head, in the darkness, two eyes emitting a profound blue light like a ghost, chilling to the bone.
“You gravely injured Nightmare, even if you did not come for me, I am bound to kill you,” Ye Shikai said coldly, as Inner Strength rapidly gathered in his right hand.
“Enough talk.” No sooner had the words fallen when Refining Mo’s body moved, his right hand drawing the Desire Splitting Blade from behind, and with a leap, the blade was raised high above his head, fiercely chopping down towards what was in front.
Ye Shikai bellowed, his right foot striking the ground, using the recoil to leap up forcefully.
His right hand struck towards Refining Mo’s arm.
“Bang.” Two powerful forces exploded in the air like a bomb, sparks flying in all directions, the intense shockwave causing the bridge to tremble slightly, two shadows fell simultaneously.
Ye Shikai inwardly sighed that Refining Mo’s strength seemed to have grown stronger.
At the same time, a remnant trace of evil energy in his body, akin to maggots in the bone, quietly stirred.
Ye Shikai had previously tried to force out the evil energy with his Inner Strength but to no effect.
The evil energy, like dye, infiltrated the pure Inner Strength within him, becoming one with it.
And upon contact with the Desire Splitting Blade, that strand of evil energy began to wriggle restlessly.
After several rounds of trading blows without a winner, Ye Shikai, with his superb skills and great courage, lunged forward, his right hand grasping tightly, subduing Refining Mo’s right arm.
Previously, Ye Shikai had torn off his left arm.
Now with only his right arm left, once subdued, Ye Shikai could easily defeat him.
“Breaking Sky Fist.” Ye Shikai’s right hand transformed into a crane’s claw, firmly gripping Refining Mo’s wrist, rendering him immobile, while his left hand formed a fist, thrusting straight towards his head.
Just as the victor was about to be decided in this instant, Refining Mo’s mouth curved up slightly.
He laughed, a sinister laugh that gave Ye Shikai an ominous premonition.
Almost instinctively, Ye Shikai released Refining Mo’s right wrist, distancing himself from the other man.
A white light flashed past the bridge of his nose, narrowly missing his eye by mere inches.
On Refining Mo’s previously empty left side, a new arm had appeared, and in that “left hand,” he tightly clutched a dagger emitting white light…
Ye Shikai could hardly believe his eyes.
He distinctly felt that this was a living, breathing arm, certainly not some prosthesis.
But how could this be possible when he had already lost his left arm?
My left arm has returned.” Refining Mo laughed hysterically, flaunting his newly recovered limb like a madman.
“What’s going on here?” Ye Shikai asked coldly.
“Ha ha, wish to know?
Go ask King Yan,” Refining Mo said, dispelling his smile.
His right hand wielding the blade and left holding the dagger, he pressed the attack on Ye Shikai relentlessly.
This was far too uncanny, Ye Shikai cursed inwardly.
Both blades were incredibly sharp, even a tree trunk thick marble was smoothly sliced into two, leaving a polished cut face.
Whether it’s a blessing or a curse, you can’t avoid misfortune, Ye Shikai turned around abruptly, his right hand forcefully pressing down on Refining Mo’s right shoulder, yanking hard.
“Rip.” Ye Shikai used the same old trick, pulling with all his Inner Strength, and an arm was ripped off, blood spurting out.
And in that instant, the dagger in Refining Mo’s left hand had deeply stabbed into Ye Shikai’s abdomen…
