Chapter 273: Advanced Flying Dagger Technique – “Invisible Dagger”

“Huh… huh…”
Sitting cross-legged with his sword in hand, Kai Xin immediately activated the Star Breathing Method to restore his strength—after such intense exertion, all that remained was endless exhaustion and sweat.
To be honest, he had underestimated these ninjas and overestimated his own stamina!
In his past life, dealing with such a group of ninjas was effortless, but this time, there was a huge gap in strength. He had to use the Dragon Seizing Hand to defeat each “shadow warrior,” and even two attacks were needed to finish them off. With his cultivation at the Mysterious Realm level, how could he afford such massive consumption of internal energy?
If it weren’t for the well-prepared Jade Dew Pills and his high level of Golden Bell Shield, four shadow warriors would have been his limit!
As for the dozens of remaining clone ninjas, Fusang ninjas, and flying dagger ninjas, they weren’t so difficult to deal with. By luring them together, he could instantly kill a few clone ninjas. As for the flying dagger ninjas, one “Seven Stars Shining Moon” attack after approaching them would suffice to take them all out. However, the consequence was that the recovery effect of the Jade Dew Pills couldn’t keep up, leaving him severely depleted in strength and energy.
If the shadow ninjas appeared now, he would most likely perish here!
Fortunately, the cunning shadow ninjas never showed up.
A few minutes later, thanks to the astonishing recovery speed of the Star Breathing Method, Kai Xin quickly returned to his peak condition!
Looking at the piles of ninja corpses in the passage, he couldn’t help but admire himself—using only twenty Jade Dew Pills to secure victory in this battle, given his Mysterious Realm cultivation. Few people would believe it if he told them!
Of course…
For someone like Lu Mingyue, an heir to a peerless martial art with exceptional long-range and group combat skills, such a scene wasn’t particularly extraordinary.
Thinking of that successor to the Sunflower Manual, who was striving hard to master the charm of Dongfang Bubai and whose strength was improving rapidly, Kai Xin’s excited mood quickly calmed down.
Huh.
Kai Xin stood up from the ground!
Glancing at the nearest corpses of flying dagger ninjas, he slowly stepped over them, skillfully removing each Qi Bag and taking out everything inside. Then came the Fusang ninjas, clone ninjas, and shadow warriors.
A rich harvest!
He obtained four conical hats, along with the Gale Boots and tridents used by the clone ninjas, and fourteen sets of the “Flying Eagle Sword” used by the flying dagger ninjas.
There were also Japanese swords, samurai swords, and various other weapons of Grade 2 and Grade 3 quality, two of each. With sword prices currently high, these items could all fetch a good price.
However…
What really mattered to Kai Xin wasn’t these fine weapons.

The Flying Dagger Ninja had lost a top-notch secret manual for flying daggers—“The Shadowless Dagger”.
Perfect.
After the Willow Leaf Flying Dagger, Kai Xin had also posted an ad in a pawnshop offering a high price to acquire excellent flying dagger manuals, but he had never found any. Now, this manual could somewhat make up for that regret.
After packing up his loot, Kai Xin glanced back at the spiral hall.
There were still a group of ninjas inside, along with unopened weapon boxes!
He guessed that the members of the four major sects must have arrived. Having taken such a large share, they should at least leave some for others. Besides, there were still many treasures in the royal tomb.
After pondering for a moment, Kai Xin didn’t look back again. He walked through the piles of corpses and headed resolutely deeper into the royal tomb.
…
Not long after they left,
the members of the Colorful Robes Sect, led by Tong Yu, arrived at the battlefield that had just ended.
Along the way, as they saw over seventy ninja corpses lying in the passage, Feng Wu Cai Yi and the others grew increasingly astonished, unable to believe their eyes.
Cloned ninjas and Flying Dagger Ninjas were already tough to deal with, and there were even several corpses of shadow doubles among them!
She almost thought this place had been crushed by a huge team. Making them believe it was the work of one person was indeed challenging.
Thud, thud, thud…
The Thirteen Stick Monks, along with disciples from the Emei and Wudang sects who had rushed over upon hearing the news, arrived at the front and saw the scene in the passage, all showing horror.
A series of neat and clear gasps could be heard in the passage.
“Is this… done by just one person?”
The Wudang disciple’s expression turned serious, filled with awe and disbelief.
Yue Hua, the Thirteen Stick Monks, and the others thought the same:
“It must be.”
“No wonder he didn’t even take the equipment in the hall. Being chased by so many ninjas, he didn’t even have the time to care about that… But! How did he do it?!”
At this moment, even the Three Lonely Wolves found it hard to accept what they saw, though they knew Kai Xin was strong.
But…
They had long experienced the strength of the ninjas in the royal tomb along the way—the trouble caused by cloned ninjas, the ruthlessness of Flying Dagger Ninjas, and the fact that shadow doubles required an entire team to counter.
“…”
An unusual atmosphere spread through the passage.
After pondering for a while, Ouyang Qing of the Wudang sect spoke firmly and decisively, “Everyone! This person is definitely not an unknown. Think about it—on the Dragon Rank and the Masters List, is there anyone who could achieve this?”
Hearing Ouyang Qing’s reminder, everyone fell into deep thought.

“The top expert on the Dragon List today is an old smoker from Beijing, at the master level of the top five martial arts styles. Additionally, there are two vice leaders of the First-Class Hall who possess such strength. But these people are relatively easy to identify. The guy we saw just now was very young; he probably isn’t one of them…”
“A few experts from the Heroism Gate and the Lingxiao Palace might be able to achieve this!” someone suggested.
But soon, one of the Thirteen Stick Monks retorted, “Impossible.”
As everyone’s attention turned to him, the bald monk remained calm and said, “Hong Chen from the Heroism Gate is one of my Shaolin disciples, so we know him quite well! Even after inheriting the teachings of the Sweepaway Divine Monk and greatly improving his skills, his ultimate martial art requires immense internal energy and has a very short duration of effect! Moreover, his defensive abilities aren’t enough to deal with so many ninjas and shadow warriors. Even as an heir to an ultimate martial art, without special tactics, it’s absolutely impossible for him to achieve this!”
After a pause, the monk continued, “Lin Xiao, Blood Cloak, and Desolation Killer are all roughly the same strength. I’m sure they can’t do it either.”
Among the crowd, disciples from the four major sects were skeptical:
“Besides those on the Dragon List, who else could it be?”
“What are you guys guessing about? Why not go after him and ask him directly?”
Yue Hua’s words silenced all the male figures in the passage.
Disciples from the three major sects exchanged helpless smiles!
Ask him in person?
If they met someone with a good temper, it might work. But what if he had a bad temper? With his skills, he could easily bury the entire sect in this royal tomb!
In the crowd…
No one noticed Xiao Yao’s strange and solemn expression as she stared at the corpses of ninjas scattered all around.
Happy!
Is she more powerful than Blood Cloak and Desolation Killer, who possess mastery of four top martial arts styles?
