According to Sikong Ming, the description of the Space Manipulation skill essentially establishes it as the essence of a Space Mage.

In his words, to put it bluntly, a Space Mage who masters 'Space Manipulation' is a completely different being from other Space Mages.

One could even say that a Space Mage mastering 'Space Manipulation' is the king among their peers!

Because only with this skill can a Space Mage truly achieve complete control over spatial power.

Even space-system attacks can be directly ignored.

At this moment, Lin Ye's judgment of Gao Lanlan's landing point perfectly aligns with Sikong Ming's description of this skill.

It's almost an instinctive perception!

Even Gao Lanlan herself might not be able to achieve this.

"Impossible... Even if Sikong Ming did pass this skill to Lin Ye, without Spatial Talent, Lin Ye absolutely can't use it." Gao Lanlan's emotions were somewhat chaotic.

But now, it was impossible for her to retreat.

To kill Lin Ye, she even went so far as to consume Gongsun's blood, falling to become a Demon.

If she were to give up on revenge now, what would her previous efforts amount to?

"I refuse to believe I can't kill you!"

Gao Lanlan said with clenched teeth and a grim expression.

At this point, whether she killed Lin Ye or not was no longer about revenge.

It was more about the twisted obsession brought about by her personality.

If revenge was her initial starting point, what drove her now was nothing but a twisted obsession.

Even under such a twisted mindset, the Demon Blood within her was boiling.

Outside, Gongsun squinted his eyes.

"Already broken?" Gongsun shook his head, slightly disappointed.

He originally thought Gao Lanlan would be a decent proxy, but now it seemed she wasn't much use.

It was truly a waste for him to have given her such high authority.

You know, if he were to choose a Hundred-level Professional, promising them the same abilities, someone would surely be willing to meet any of Gongsun's demands for the power of the rules.

But people like that didn't interest Gongsun.

He didn't expect that even the one he had high hopes for, Gao Lanlan, wasn't much better than the others.

"Sigh, never mind, I'll give you another small break..."

He sighed softly.

After all, letting a Space Mage die like this was truly a pity.

If under the current circumstances, Gao Lanlan could kill Lin Ye, she might barely meet his requirements.

If she still failed, then Gao Lanlan was purely a clown.

For people like that, if they die, they die. He'd just chalk it up to him misjudging.

...

Lin Ye glanced around, still not sensing any movement from Gao Lanlan.

Of course, it wasn't like Gao Lanlan had some means preventing Lin Ye from sensing her; she simply hid in a Spatial Rift and didn't come out.

"What's this guy doing? Already scared?"

Lin Ye wondered to himself.

Seeing how obsessed Gao Lanlan was with seeking revenge on him, it was impossible that she would just give up now.

In the next moment, a sudden jump of his heart startled Lin Ye.

He quickly leaped off his horse, making a swift move to increase the distance.

Then, a powerful force almost knocked him to the ground.

Lin Ye looked up, seeing that Gao Lanlan had somehow appeared less than three meters from his previous standing position.

Behind Gao Lanlan was a shattered Spatial Rift.

Lin Ye immediately realized that she had forcibly torn the space to move more efficiently.

"That's one way to do it… But how did she manage it?"

Lin Ye was puzzled.

He could also perform such an operation, but achieving precise target positioning was very difficult.

"It must be Gongsun's doing."

Seeing the swirling Demonic Qi on Gao Lanlan's body, Lin Ye instantly made a judgment.

But this time, Gao Lanlan's speed was indeed extremely fast; she pierced through another Spatial Rift.

The next moment, she directly shattered the space and charged at Lin Ye.

Her speed was so fast it didn't allow Lin Ye any time to think.

Gao Lanlan raised her hand, releasing a rapid surge from her palm.

"Dimension Slash!"

Lin Ye felt his scalp tingle; this was a highly damaging single-target skill of the Space System.

Ever since he got the Space Mage profession from Sikong Ming, Lin Ye had taken some efforts to understand Space Mage skills.

Though data about this was scarce, any mention of the Space Mage profession inevitably included Dimension Slash.

It could be said this was the most lethal of instant-cast skills without exception!

Even most skills requiring casting time couldn't compare to Dimension Slash in terms of lethality.

And because it's a Space System skill, unless one is completely immune to spell damage, common attributes of resistance are utterly ineffective.

For most people, damage from the Space Attribute was essentially equivalent to True Damage.

This skill, only learnable by Space Mages, could be considered to have no disadvantages.

Lin Ye watched as the space-generated wave surged toward him, but he couldn't escape.

Too fast!

But in the next moment, just as the light wave was about to slice through Lin Ye, it disappeared right before his eyes.

Before Lin Ye could react, he saw a notification.

['Space Manipulation' passive effect activated, you are immune to the Space System skill 'Dimension Slash']

['Dimension Slash' learning progress is 1/3]

"This..."

Lin Ye's pupils shook.

"Space Manipulation has this effect?"

Lin Ye was somewhat astounded.

No wonder Sikong Ming specifically instructed him to pass this skill to a Professional with Spatial Talent.

Turns out, this skill had such a significant effect for Space Mages.

Not only could it make Space Mages immune to Space System skills, but it also allowed them to learn Space System skills!

Not far away, the second Dimension Slash from Gao Lanlan came following closely.

Lin Ye, aware but too late, took another hit of 'Dimension Slash' directly.

And then he saw a notification nearly identical to the last, though the 'Dimension Slash' learning progress had moved to 2/3.

"Just one more!"

Lin Ye suddenly looked up at Gao Lanlan.

He had never felt such a strong urge to get hit!

Meanwhile, after two continuous failures of Dimension Slash, Gao Lanlan was puzzled.

Is this guy even human?

To take two of her Dimension Slashes head-on and act as if nothing happened?

She had watched with her own eyes as her Dimension Slashes hit Lin Ye directly!
