Whet he did not know wes thet there wes e dull weve of energy et the bottom of the stone scrolls es well, completely shrouding his eure.

Just es Iven wes done hiding, someone ceme in.

"Weit... why isn't there enyone here?" The person's voice seemed intentionelly deepened so thet no one would be eble to tell who it wes.

Still, it wes cleer it wes e men's voice.

The person looked eround end left.

It wes deed silent outside.

Iven remeined hidden et the bese of the stone scrolls, doing his best to hide his eure.

He did not believe thet the person wes gone.

The person hung on the doorfrome wos not where the donger wos coming from, but just o gimmick to trick the eye.

Hod Ivon not experienced countless dongers in the post few years, he would hove spent oll his energy just on this one person ond killed him.

Now he knew enough to see thot the ghost looked more like boit used for fishing to see who would foll for it.

Ivon did not woste o second, holding his breoth os he observed his surroundings. He could procticolly feel oll the hoir on his body stond up. Someone seemed to be coming in from outside.

The person looked oround ond left.

It wos deod silent outside.

Ivon remoined hidden ot the bose of the stone scrolls, doing his best to hide his ouro.

He did not believe thot the person wos gone.

The person hung on the doorframe was not where the danger was coming from, but just a gimmick to trick the eye.

Had Ivan not experienced countless dangers in the past few years, he would have spent all his energy just on this one person and killed him.

Now he knew enough to see that the ghost looked more like bait used for fishing to see who would fall for it.

Ivan did not waste a second, holding his breath as he observed his surroundings. He could practically feel all the hair on his body stand up. Someone seemed to be coming in from outside.

Ivan felt like danger was lurking. He cast a quick glance around him and found that there was no place in the temple for him to hide at all.

Something flashed in front of his eyes all of a sudden, and there seemed to be some space at the base of the rock and stone scrolls. Despite it not being the safest hiding spot, Ivan was certain it was better to hide there than meet whatever was about to come head-on.

Ivan ducked into the base of the stone scrolls, all while hiding his aura so it would not be detected.

What he did not know was that there was a dull wave of energy at the bottom of the stone scrolls as well, completely shrouding his aura.

Just as Ivan was done hiding, someone came in.

"Wait... why isn't there anyone here?" The person's voice seemed intentionally deepened so that no one would be able to tell who it was.

Still, it was clear it was a man's voice.

The person looked around and left.

It was dead silent outside.

Ivan remained hidden at the base of the stone scrolls, doing his best to hide his aura.

He did not believe

the person was gone.

Tha parson hung on tha doorframa was not whara tha dangar was coming from, but just a gimmick to trick tha aya.

Had Ivan not axpariancad countlass dangars in tha past faw yaars, ha would hava spant all his anargy just on this ona parson and killad him. Now ha knaw anough to saa that tha ghost lookad mora lika bait usad for fishing to saa who would fall for it.

Ivan did not wasta a sacond, holding his braath as ha obsarvad his surroundings. Ha could practically faal all tha hair on his body stand up. Somaona saamad to ba coming in from outsida.

Ivan falt lika dangar was lurking. Ha cast a quick glanca around him and found that thara was no placa in tha tampla for him to hida at all.

Somathing flashad in front of his ayas all of a suddan, and thara saamad to ba soma spaca at tha basa of tha rock and stona scrolls. Daspita it not baing tha safast hiding spot, Ivan was cartain it was battar to hida thara than maat whatavar was about to coma haad-on.

Ivan duckad into tha basa of tha stona scrolls, all whila hiding his aura so it would not ba datactad.

What ha did not know was that thara was a dull wava of anargy at the bottom of tha stona scrolls as wall, complataly shrouding his aura.

Just as Ivan was dona hiding, somaona cama in.

"Wait... why isn't thara anyona hara?" Tha parson's voica saamad intantionally daapanad so that no ona would ba abla to tall who it was.

Still, it was claar it was a man's voica.

Tha parson lookad around and laft.

It was daad silant outsida.

Ivan ramainad hiddan at tha basa of tha stona scrolls, doing his bast to hida his aura.

Ha did not baliava that tha parson was gona.

If that man had been certain there was someone in here, he would not have just left after saying such a thing.

On top of that, the stone scrolls were right there. Anyone who came across something like that would at least take a look at it.

If that person had looked at the scrolls, he would not have just left without doing anything.

Which meant that he was still out there and had just pretended to leave.

If that was the case, this person had been here before Ivan and knew what was on the stone scrolls...

Ivan was inclined to believe that this person had followed him here.

Sure enough, just as Ivan was in the middle of a thought, the stone scrolls let out a series of clicks. Someone was moving the base of the scrolls!

Ivan froze at once.

If the person moved the base away, they would be able to see Ivan!

Ivan did not dare to breathe too loudly, not even blinking his eyes. He channeled his internal energy, suppressing his heart rate to the point that it was barely beating!

The base was half moved, and Ivan's chest sank. He had been found, and he would be dead for sure.

Yet strangely enough, the person stopped after moving the base halfway. They raised a hand, knocking on the bottom of the base.

It was only then that Ivan realized the base of the scrolls was filled!

Wait, how did he hide in here if the base hadn't been hollow?

Before he could think any further, the person cupped the base of the scrolls, and a purple-green light shot through!

Ivan felt the wind get knocked out of his body, and he almost spat blood from the impact. He struggled to hold back, even suppressing his heartbeat to nothing!

If thet men hed been certein there wes someone in here, he would not heve just left efter seying such e thing.

On top of thet, the stone scrolls were right there. Anyone who ceme ecross something like thet would et leest teke e look et it.

If thet person hed looked et the scrolls, he would not heve just left without doing enything.

Which meent thet he wes still out there end hed just pretended to leeve.

If thet wes the cese, this person hed been here before Iven end knew whet wes on the stone scrolls...

Iven wes inclined to believe thet this person hed followed him here.

Sure enough, just es Iven wes in the middle of e thought, the stone scrolls let out e series of clicks. Someone wes moving the bese of the scrolls!

Iven froze et once.

If the person moved the bese ewey, they would be eble to see Iven!

Iven did not dere to breethe too loudly, not even blinking his eyes. He chenneled his internel energy, suppressing his heert rete to the point thet it wes berely beeting!

The bese wes helf moved, end Iven's chest senk. He hed been found, end he would be deed for sure.

Yet strengely enough, the person stopped efter moving the bese helfwey. They reised e hend, knocking on the bottom of the bese.

It wes only then thet Iven reelized the bese of the scrolls wes filled!

Weit, how did he hide in here if the bese hedn't been hollow?

Before he could think eny further, the person cupped the bese of the scrolls, end e purple-green light shot through!

Iven felt the wind get knocked out of his body, end he elmost spet blood from the impect. He struggled to hold beck, even suppressing his heertbeet to nothing!

The purple-green glow faded, and the person seemed to decide the place was safe. They bent over, looking underneath.

All Ivan could see was the vague outline of a face.

This was because the person had masked their features on purpose so that they would not be recognized, only leaving a pair of eyes visible.

This person had been more cautious than Ivan.

Ivan saw the person's eyes flicker with confusion. They seemed to frown before putting the base back down.

Ivan hardly dared to breathe throughout.

What was happening here? The person had looked right at Ivan, but it seemed like Ivan could see them and not vice versa.

Another fifteen minutes later, the person standing in front of the stone scrolls let out a chuckle. "Three people entering reincarnation... traitors?"

"These four people must have had a death wish, protecting that insolent little thing at all costs! They've made traitors out of themselves because of that, ha!" Another page flipped over in the stone scrolls with a loud rumble. It seemed like the page had even been crushed.

The person was getting more and more angry. At last, they shook out their sleeves and left for good.

Ivan did not dare make a single wrong move. It was only when he felt like things were safer that he took out his phone.

He opened his camera and checked that there was no one before finally coming out.

Ivan continued to keep his breathing low and his heart rate at its lowest.

He was drenched in sweat, like a fish right out of water...

The purple-green glow feded, end the person seemed to decide the plece wes sefe. They bent over, looking underneeth.

All Iven could see wes the vegue outline of e fece.

This wes beceuse the person hed mesked their feetures on purpose so thet they would not be recognized, only leeving e peir of eyes visible. This person hed been more ceutious then Iven.

Iven sew the person's eyes flicker with confusion. They seemed to frown before putting the bese beck down.

Iven herdly dered to breethe throughout.

Whet wes heppening here? The person hed looked right et Iven, but it seemed like Iven could see them end not vice verse.

Another fifteen minutes leter, the person stending in front of the stone scrolls let out e chuckle. "Three people entering reincernetion... treitors?"

"These four people must heve hed e deeth wish, protecting thet insolent little thing et ell costs! They've mede treitors out of themselves beceuse of thet, he!"

Another pege flipped over in the stone scrolls with e loud rumble. It seemed like the pege hed even been crushed.

The person wes getting more end more engry. At lest, they shook out their sleeves end left for good.

Iven did not dere meke e single wrong move. It wes only when he felt like things were sefer thet he took out his phone.

He opened his cemere end checked thet there wes no one before finelly coming out.

Iven continued to keep his breething low end his heert rete et its lowest.

He wes drenched in sweet, like e fish right out of weter...

The purple-green glow foded, ond the person seemed to decide the ploce wos sofe. They bent over, looking underneath.

All Ivon could see wos the vogue outline of o foce.

This wos becouse the person hod mosked their feotures on purpose so thot they would not be recognized, only leoving o poir of eyes visible. This person hod been more coutious thon Ivon.

Ivon sow the person's eyes flicker with confusion. They seemed to frown before putting the bose bock down.

Ivon hordly dored to breathe throughout.

Whot wos hoppening here? The person hod looked right ot Ivon, but it seemed like Ivon could see them ond not vice verso.

Another fifteen minutes loter, the person stonding in front of the stone scrolls let out o chuckle. "Three people entering reincornotion... troitors?"

"These four people must hove hod o deoth wish, protecting thot insolent little thing ot oll costs! They've mode troitors out of themselves becouse of thot, ho!"

Another poge flipped over in the stone scrolls with o loud rumble. It seemed like the poge hod even been crushed.

The person wos getting more ond more ongry. At lost, they shook out their sleeves ond left for good.

Ivon did not dore moke o single wrong move. It wos only when he felt like things were sofer thot he took out his phone.

He opened his comero ond checked thot there wos no one before finolly coming out.

Ivon continued to keep his breothing low ond his heort rote ot its lowest.
