Cataclysm King

Chapter 492: Reappearance of Mirror Space
"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"whoosh"

The clear and sharp sounds of breaking wind were heard frequently.

Ji Xun used his telekinesis to throw a flying knife, and the hell bats around him fell like raindrops.

The efficiency was so high that Qin Rushi and several revolutionary army cadres were stunned.

Hundreds of flying knives flashed around the crowd at an extremely fast speed, like thousands of silver-scaled and nimble little fish swimming in the void.

Wherever the cold light passes, blood will splatter.

Although these flying knives did not look as domineering and powerful as the sword energy field of Chen Jianwuliu just now, the number of kills was far less than that of mowing the grass with the sword energy.

But everyone discovered strangely that during this flash of silver light, a barrier with a diameter of about ten meters was instantly formed around them. For a moment, no bats could get close to them?

It seems that it’s not that the flying knife’s lethality is not enough, but that it just happens to control such a large range and just controls the fluctuations of the battle.

Looking more closely, it was found that almost all the bats were killed in one strike, with the wounds on their bodies mostly concentrated on the head and heart.

Occasionally, a few of them appear, so you can just call it luck.

It's always like this.

This is not ordinary accuracy.

"What an exaggerated calculation."

Everyone was not surprised when they found out that Ji Xunxiu’s theory was “I am the World”.

But gradually, the style of painting became more and more outrageous.

Qin Rushi and the others also found that they didn't need to do anything themselves, Ji Xun could deal with the attacking swarm of bats by himself.

There was no need to take action, so several people stopped.

Then they looked at Ji Xun, who was strolling leisurely on the pile of corpses, with slightly strange expressions.

You know, telekinesis is indeed very powerful and has decent lethality, but the consumption of mental spells puts a greater burden on the card master's body than the consumption of spell power.

Everyone originally thought that Ji Xun's telekinetic flying knife might consume as much energy as Chen Jianwuliu's sword energy field and would not last long.

However, after watching for a while, they found that this guy didn't show any signs of being overwhelmed.

Bonnie couldn't help but be curious and asked directly: "Ji Xun, are your flying knives controlled by mental power? How come they are so fast? Also, won't your mental power be consumed too quickly when you control so many flying knives?"

Everyone present can kill these hell bats in groups.

But even Qin Rushi wouldn't be so relaxed.

Ji Xun looked at the curious eyes and explained simply, "I don't just control the objects with my mental power. I also have some other methods."

He had been practicing hard during the days since he came to the Southern Continent. While his mental strength had skyrocketed, he also found many secret techniques from the Royal Academy, and now he could control hundreds of flying knives very smoothly.

But the most important thing is that the realms of the two mysterious magic techniques, "Leading the Gods to Fall" and "Lightless Sun", have been greatly improved.

Normally, controlling objects with telekinesis requires the consumption of mental energy as a driving force.

So it's very tiring.

But Ji Xun is proficient in these two magical secrets. With pulling and pushing as the main power, he can make the flying knife fly quickly; with mental power as a guide, he can accurately control the direction of the flying knife with just a little effort.

The three extraordinary powers work together to produce explosive effects.

Normally, if he wants to achieve this effect with the telekinetic flying knife, he may need to consume "100 units" of mental energy.

But when using these three methods together, the mental energy consumption may be only one or two percent.

Moreover, he also knows two secret techniques, "Gluttony" and "Empty Moon Divine Thought", which can help him recover his mental strength and spell power very quickly.

The current level of consumption is almost the same as the body's natural recovery.

In other words, Ji Xun is now a "perpetual motion machine".

If the battle was just of this level, he could almost keep killing.

Moreover, the energy fluctuation is very small and it is unlikely to be targeted by certain high-level beings.

Hearing Ji Xun's explanation, Qin Rushi's lips curled up into a gentle smile.

The expressions of Bonnie and the others were really wonderful.

Didn’t this guy knock out a level seven monster with just one punch before? It turns out that his mental attack method is so powerful?
It seems like every time it brings something unexpected to people.

Everyone was used to it.

Ji Xun's move made the tense battle situation seem so urgent all of a sudden.

The shock waves from the battle behind him were getting louder and louder. That was the direction of the Firefly Camp, and the battle was visibly fierce.

But that has nothing to do with the people of the Great Sword Group.

Because they evacuated in time, they have now avoided the most dangerous wave of beast attacks.

Be it the top-level monsters or the three Outer God sects, they have nothing to do with them.

Even though there were many bats, they could not pose any threat to their group.

While the fighting behind them was intense, the people from the Great Sword Group seemed quite leisurely.

With Ji Xun in control, Bonnie and the others had nothing to do, so they picked up magic cores along the way.

There were dead bats all over the ground.

As they walked, they dug out walnut-sized magic crystal cores from the bats' heads.

Originally, the blood, fur, bones and muscles of these bats were all materials, but the quantities were too large.

Bonnie and her friends only took the most valuable crystal cores and threw away the rest.

As we walked along, we found that the leather bags at hand were bulging.

"The probability of these hell bats having magic cores is very high. For ordinary first-level monsters, it's good enough if one out of ten has a magic core. But these bats have five or six out of ten."

"Yes. It should be due to mutation. Rosen, the one in your hand is the leader monster. Please help me remove the fang. It is an excellent material for the magic-breaking arrow."

"These bats must have come from the 'Dead Zone'. Hey, who knows what secrets are hidden in that place. Emperor Lanlingster is willing to explore it regardless of the danger. Hey, do you think that if we humans stay in that environment for a long time, will we also become giants?"

"Most likely."

"Ouch, there's a level six monster ahead! Haha, Uncle Dong, stop it quickly!"

"."

The beast tide is both a danger and an opportunity for powerful adventurers.

Just like now.

The members of the Great Sword Group walked and chatted along the way, and occasionally they could hunt down a high-level monster.

Ji Xun and Qin Rushi were walking in the middle of the team, and they had quite some free time.

There was also Old Man Xu who looked timid beside him.

Ji Xun kept walking, and kept deducing in his mind.

It seems that as long as they keep avoiding the main battlefield, the risk will become smaller and smaller.

But Ji Xun is not so optimistic.

He always felt that this battle, which had been planned for a long time by many parties, was not as simple as "bait fishing".

What is the purpose of the Holy See? The Holy See’s methods have not been revealed, and the coffin’s purpose is unknown. Xie Guozhong has not appeared either.
Many things that should play an important role in the logic line are not seen.

Ji Xun couldn't figure it out, so he glanced at Old Man Xu beside him and asked, "Senior Xu, do you know what the bottomless pit in the Dead Zone is like?"

"How do I know?"

Old man Xu replied with drooping eyelids.

"."

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, not surprised.

I have asked him several times in the past few days, but the old man always said he didn't know.

I asked one more question now because I wanted to see if anything that happened to him triggered some memories.

Before he could ask anything else, Old Man Xu muttered with a strange look on his face: "But Ji Xun, have you noticed that we seem to be lost?"

"get lost?"

Ji Xun immediately became alert when he heard this.

But when he thought about it, no!

The environment around the campsite has long been memorized.

He had been heading in this direction all the way, how could he get lost?
Could it be that perception is misled?
He turned to look at Qin Rushi and Bonnie beside him, and they also looked at him with confusion.

Ji Xun knew that he was not the only one who was having problems, and no one else noticed the problem either.

If someone else had said this, Ji Xun would have thought that the other person had misperceived it.

But what Old Man Xu said is definitely worth taking seriously.

My perception is not disturbed and the direction is fine, so how could I get lost?
"Could it be."

Ji Xun was startled and thought of something. He immediately glanced at Ivan who was sleeping in his pocket.

Sure enough, I saw a faint layer of void energy lingering around her.

Ji Xun quickly woke Ivan up. The little girl looked at him sleepily and asked blankly, "Ji Xun, what's wrong?"

Ji Xun said directly: "Ivan, feel the space around you, is there any problem?"

When Ivan heard this, he immediately realized something: "Hey, why are we back to that space again?"

"."

Ji Xun's eyelids twitched slightly when he heard this.

He knew what was happening.

When the Holy See sent people to the Eastern Wilderness to capture Ivan, the deacon at that time used rune stones to trap Ji Xun and the other person in a special space called the Lost Mirror Maze.

That space circulates infinitely and can continuously absorb the spatial energy from Ivan.

Just like the situation right now!

Ivan was woken up, looking listless, and muttered, "Jixun, I'm hungry."

When Ji Xun heard this, he confirmed his thoughts again.

As the space energy is absorbed, Ivan's hunger frequency will become very high.

Because he had encountered such a situation once before, Ji Xun was not too surprised and was quickly deducing the answer in his mind.

He also took out some snacks and stuffed them into the little girl's hands.

Qin Rushi, who was standing by, saw his solemn expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ji Xun expressed his guess and said, "I know what the coffin is used for. The people from the Holy See must have used the coffin to trap everyone in the camp."

He had been wondering before, what exactly was the [Lost Mirror Maze]?

I have researched a lot of information but have not found any clues.

Now he was sure that the rune stone in his hand was only the key to that space.

But the real space itself is still the coffin!

And now it's even more advanced, it's no longer a virtual mirror, but the real space around the entire camp is included.

Although he didn't know how those guys did it, Ji Xun's mind was already very clear.

Upon hearing this, Qin Rushi frowned.

She also figured out the arrangements of the Holy See.

So that was what those guys were planning.

Use "bait" to lure those heretics in, and then use coffins to trap everyone in this special space, and then catch them all in one fell swoop?
Qin Rushi had heard Ji Xun talk about the weirdness of the mirror space before, and she herself had no idea how to get out.

Now that he was trapped, a solemn look appeared on his face.

"Hey, this is interesting. The background of the Holy See is indeed not simple."

Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself.

This situation, no matter how you look at it, is exactly the same as the method Jia Yu used in the Innocence City to set up a trap to kill the old sect members.

The brilliance of the layout is only now revealed.

The more Ji Xun thought about it, the more excited he felt.

A second ago, he thought that the struggle between the three major sects had nothing to do with him and he felt nothing at all; at this moment, he was involved in it and only then did he catch a glimpse of the huge chessboard revealed.

But this time, Ji Xun was very calm.

The last time I got out of the [Lost Mirror Maze] was entirely by chance.

Perhaps it was because he had comprehended some of the mysteries of the laws of time, or because of [JOKER], that he discovered the special space with fifty-three [Forbidden Ruins Stone Tablets].

In short, if it happened again, he wouldn't be sure he could get out.

But this time it's different.

Thinking of something, he glanced at Old Man Xu beside him.

Others don’t know how to crack this special space, but Ji Xun knows that it is related to the “Law of Time”.

The Law of Time is one of the supreme laws of the universe.

Ji Xun has met many masters, but he has only met two people who have truly touched the mystery of time.

It’s Old Man Xu and Mr. Che.

So when he saw Che Er appear before, this thought popped up in Ji Xun's mind: The people of the Holy See have that mirror space, could it be that Che Er came for this reason?
Unexpectedly, one of the countless possible deductions actually came true.

And it is because it has been fulfilled.

Behind the chessboard, he seemed to see a familiar figure of a "chess spectator".

A thought suddenly popped up in Ji Xun's mind: "Could it be that the mushroom-headed guy was also involved?"

Bonnie and the others also heard the conversation between Ji Xun and Qin Rushi, and everyone realized that they seemed to be in deadly danger.

However, the problem has arisen, how to solve it now?

Qin Rushi gave him an inquiring look, as if asking: What should we do now?
Ji Xun knew that some things could not be said too clearly, especially certain causes and effects related to Old Man Xu that were too purposeful and involved everyone.

So he just said: "Protect Senior Xu."

No one understands the mysteries of time better than an "immortal".

After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.

No one asked any more questions, just nodded silently.

Soon, Ji Xun and his companions understood why Old Man Xu said they were lost.

They were clearly walking in one direction, but as they walked, it seemed as if they had passed through a space barrier, and the sound of fighting suddenly appeared in the dense forest in front of the team.

As he walked closer, he saw a half-broken magic tower that was once ten stories high.

The sky is half blood clouds and half bright sun.

There are dilapidated buildings all around.

If it’s not the Firefly Camp, then where is it?

After going around in circles, we finally returned to the camp.

Everyone in the Great Sword Group looked at this strange scene with solemn expressions.

The battle in the camp has become very fierce. The number of hell bats is not as many as before, but they still float above the camp like dark clouds.

Several eighth-level magical beasts, including [World-Destroying Thunder Ape], [Phoenix], [Hell Dragon], [Thunder Dragon Lizard], and [Underworld Peacock], are fighting with human adventurers in the forest surrounding the camp.

This is already deep in the Warcraft Forest. Adventurers who can come here have more or less some ability to save their lives.

After the panic caused by the camp being dispersed, the survivors quickly gathered together to launch an effective counterattack.

The Holy See has ambushed so many elite troops, even if there are pagans causing trouble, they can't let a few monsters wipe out the camp.

Several large mercenary groups and the Royal Knights formed a battle formation, pinning down the people from the Scarlet Sect and the Holy See, while the rest of the people fought with the monsters.

The monsters were attracted by the aura of the fragment of the godhead before, and now seeing this situation, they also know that it is probably impossible to snatch the thing from humans. Moreover, the monsters have a stronger sense of crisis than humans, and they seem to have discovered that there is something wrong with the space.

Several lord monsters did not dare to approach the main battlefield, but scattered around the forest, showing signs of retreating.

However, Ji Xun and his companions had already proved it, and now no one could get out.

After taking a quick look at the situation, Ji Xun looked at the Dark Peacock whose wing was pierced by a hole in the magic tower not far away and suggested, "How about we hunt some monsters first?"

"Ah."

Qin Rushi also nodded.

In the current situation, it is impossible for them to get involved in a melee among several parties.

But I can't get out.

Rather than watching the battle secretly and arousing suspicion, it is better to attract the attention of those monsters first.

If you were to hunt an eighth-rank [Underworld Peacock] elsewhere, you would not only have to consider whether you have the strength to defeat it, but you would also have to be on guard against it being able to fly away.

Now the space is restricted and there is no escape.

The Dark Peacock's wings were injured, so there was no better time than now.

Besides, it wasn't just the peacock. With the naked eye, there were at least dozens of level 6 or higher monsters in the forest surrounding the camp, either fighting with humans or running around looking for a way out.
Under normal circumstances, even in the Warcraft Forest, it would take ten days or half a month to find such a high-level Warcraft, and it also depends on luck.

But right now, it's like a zoo, with monsters trapped everywhere and unable to escape.

Just when Ji Xun and his group were looking for trouble with those monsters.

In a dilapidated small building in the camp.

A young man with star-like eyebrows and sword-like eyes was leaning on the bed, watching the melee outside with an indifferent expression.

It was none other than Che Er, whom Ji Xun had met before.

As he watched, the young man murmured with emotion: "The leader's deduction is absolutely correct. The people of the Holy See will definitely block the space, and it is an unexpected method. Ha, this mirror space, if you don't understand the law of time, there is really no chance of getting out. I have to open a hole for them."

As he spoke, he suddenly took out a black cloak with special patterns on it and put it on, then took out an ancient mask that looked like stone but was not and put it on his face.

The mask covers the face, and a sense of mystery from ancient times comes to the face.

If Ji Xun was present, he would definitely recognize the pattern on the mask. It belongs to one of the thirteen knights of the Illuminati Hermitage - "The Speaker of Time".

Before dawn comes, a time teller in the desperate darkness.
