Chapter 492 Reappearance of the Mirror Space
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh"
The sharp sound of breaking the wind rang out.
Ji Xun threw a flying knife with telekinesis, and the hell bats around him fell like raindrops.
The high efficiency made Qin Rushi and several revolutionary army cadres stunned.
Hundreds of flying knives flashed around them at a very fast speed, like thousands of silver-scaled and flexible fish swimming in the void.
Wherever the cold light passed, blood would splash.
Although these flying knives did not look as domineering and fierce as Chen Jianwuliu's sword energy field just now, the number of kills was far less than that of sword energy mowing grass.
But everyone strangely discovered that it was during this flash of silver light that an isolation barrier with a diameter of about ten meters was formed around them in an instant. For a while, no bats could get close to them?
It seemed that it was not that the flying knife was not lethal enough, but that it just controlled such a large range and controlled the battle fluctuations just right.
Looking more carefully, those bats were almost killed in one blow, and the wounds on the bodies were mostly concentrated in the head and heart.
Occasionally, a few of them, it's just luck.
All of them are like this.
This is not ordinary precision.
"What an exaggerated calculation."
Everyone knew that Ji Xun was practicing "I am the World", so they were not surprised.
But gradually, the style of painting became more and more outrageous.
Qin Rushi and the others also found that it seemed that Ji Xun could deal with the attacking bats alone without doing anything.
There was no need to take action, so the few people stopped.
Then they looked at Ji Xun who was walking leisurely on the pile of corpses with a slightly strange look.
You know, telekinesis is indeed very strong and has good 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 telekinesis flying knife might consume too much energy like Chen Jianwuliu's sword energy field, and it would not last long.
However, after watching for a while, they found that this guy did not 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 can they be 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 can't do it so easily.
Looking at the curious eyes, Ji Xun had nothing to say, and simply explained: "I don't control objects entirely with mental power, there are some other means."
I have been practicing hard these days in the South Continent. While his mental power skyrocketed, he found a lot of secret techniques from the Royal Academy, and now he can control hundreds of flying knives very smoothly.
But the most important thing is that the realm of the two magic secret techniques of "Guiding the Fall of the Gods" and "Lightless Sun" has been broken through a lot.
Normally, controlling objects with mental power requires mental power as a power source.
So it is very laborious.
But Ji Xun is proficient in these two magic secret techniques. Pulling and pushing as the main power can make the flying knives shuttle quickly; mental power is used as a guide, and the direction of the flying knives can be accurately controlled with a little use.
The three extraordinary powers cooperated with each other to produce an explosive effect.
Normally, he might need to consume "100 units" of mental energy to achieve this effect with the telekinetic flying knife.
But with the three methods together, the mental energy consumption might be only one or two percent.
Moreover, he also knows the two secret methods of "gluttony" and "empty moon divine thought", and his mental power and spell power recover very quickly.
At this level of consumption, it is almost the same as the natural recovery of the body.
In other words, Ji Xun is now a "perpetual motion machine".
If it is just a battle of this level, then he can almost keep killing.
And the energy fluctuation is very small, and it is almost impossible to be targeted by some high-level beings.
Hearing Ji Xun's explanation, Qin Rushi's mouth drew a gentle smile.
And the expressions of Bonnie and others were wonderful.
Didn't this guy knock out the seventh-level monster with one punch before? It turns out that the mental attack method is so powerful?
It seems that every time he can bring unexpected things to people.
Everyone is used to it again.
Ji Xun's move also made the urgent battle situation seem so urgent all of a sudden.
The shock waves of the battle behind him were higher and higher. That was the direction of the Firefly Camp. The battle was visibly fierce.
But that had nothing to do with the people of the Great Sword Group.
Because they evacuated in time, they also avoided the most dangerous wave of beast tide impact.
Whether it was the top-level magic beasts or the three people from the Outer God Sect, they had nothing to do with them.
Just these bats, although there were many of them, could not threaten them at all.
The fight behind them was fierce, but the people of the Great Sword Group were very leisurely.
With Ji Xun controlling the situation, Bonnie and the others were idle and picked up magic cores along the way.
Bat corpses were everywhere.
As they walked, they dug out those walnut-sized magic crystal cores from the bats' heads.
Originally, the blood, fur, bones and muscles of these bats were all materials, but the number was too much.
Bonnie and the others only took the most valuable crystal cores and threw away the others.
As we walked along, we could not help but notice that the bags we were holding were bulging.
"The probability of these hell bats having magic cores is very high. For ordinary first-level monsters, it is good enough if one out of ten has a magic core. These bats actually have five or six out of ten."
"Yes. It should be due to mutation. Rosen, the one in your hand is the leader monster, help me take off the fangs, it is an excellent material for the magic-breaking arrows."
"These bats should be from the 'Dead Zone'. Hey, I don't know what secrets are hidden in that place. Emperor Lanlingster is going 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?"
"It is likely."
"Oh, there is a sixth-level monster ahead! Haha, Uncle Dong, stop it quickly"
"."
The beast tide is a danger and an opportunity for powerful adventurers.
Just like now.
The people of the Great Sword Group walked and chatted all the way, and occasionally hunted a high-level monster.
Ji Xun and Qin Rushi walked in the middle of the team, which was quite leisurely.
There was also an 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 be smaller and smaller.
But Ji Xun was not so optimistic.
He always felt that this battle that had been planned for a long time by many parties was not as simple as "bait fishing".
What was the purpose of the people of the Church of Light? The means of the Holy Church had not been revealed, and the coffin was unknown for what purpose; Xie Guozhong did not appear.
Many things that should have played an important role in the logical line were not seen.
Ji Xun himself could not figure it out. He glanced at the old man Xu beside him and asked: "Senior Xu, what is the situation of the bottomless pit in the dead zone? Do you know?"
"How should I know?"
Old man Xu replied with drooping eyelids.
"."
Ji Xun also raised his eyebrows when he heard it, and it was not surprising.
He had asked several times in the past few days, and the old man said he didn't know.
Now he asked one more question just to see if he had triggered some memories when he encountered something.
Before he could ask anything else, old man Xu muttered with a strange look: "But Ji Xun boy, did you find that we seem to be lost?"
"Lost?"
Ji Xun immediately became alert when he heard it.
But when he thought about it, no!
He had memorized the environment near the campsite.
He had been heading in this direction all the way, how could he get lost?
Could it be that his perception was misled?
He turned to look at Qin Rushi and Bonnie beside him, and they all looked puzzled.
Ji Xun knew that it was not just him, and no one else had noticed the problem.
If someone else had said this, Ji Xun would have thought that the other party had misperceived it.
But what Old Man Xu said must be worthy of attention.
The perception was not disturbed, and the direction was fine, so how could he get lost?
"Could it be..."
Ji Xun was startled, and thought of something, and immediately looked at Ivan who was sleeping in his pocket.
Sure enough, he saw a layer of faint void energy lingering around her.
Ji Xun quickly woke Ivan up.
The little Loli looked at him sleepily and asked blankly: "Ji Xun, what's wrong?"
Ji Xun said directly: "Ivan, feel the space around you, is there a problem?"
When Ivan heard this, he immediately found something: "Hey, why are we back to that space again?"
"."
Ji Xun's eyelids twitched slightly when he heard this.
He knew what happened.
When the Holy See sent people to the East Wilderness to capture Ivan, the deacon used the Rune Stone to trap Ji Xun and the others in a special space called [Lost Mirror Labyrinth].
That space is infinitely cyclical and can continuously absorb the space energy from Ivan.
Just like the situation in front of him!
Ivan was awakened, looking listless, and muttered: "Ji Xun, I'm hungry."
When Ji Xun heard this, he confirmed his thoughts again.
When the space energy is absorbed, Ivan's hunger frequency will be very high.
Because he had encountered such a situation once before, Ji Xun was not too surprised, and his mind was quickly deducing.
He also took out some snacks and stuffed them into the little Loli's hand.
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 of the Holy See should have used the coffin to trap everyone in the camp."
He had been wondering where the [Lost Mirror Labyrinth] was before.
He had studied a lot of information but had not found any clues.
Now he was sure that the Rune Stone in his hand was just the key to that space.
And the real space itself was still the coffin!
And now it was even more clever. It was no longer a virtual mirror. Instead, it brought in the real space near the entire camp.
Although he didn't know how those guys did it, Ji Xun's thoughts were already very clear.
Upon hearing this, Qin Rushi frowned.
She also figured out the arrangement of the Holy See.
So that's what those guys were planning.
Use "bait" to lure those heretics, 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 trapped, a solemn look appeared on her face.
"Hey, this is interesting. The background of the Holy See is really not simple."
Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself.
This situation is exactly the same as the method used by Jia Yu in Innocence City to trap and kill the old sects.
The cleverness of the layout has just begun to show.
The more Ji Xun thought about it, the more excited he felt.
The previous second, he felt that the struggle between the three major sects had nothing to do with him, and he was completely indifferent; at this moment, he was involved in it and saw the huge chessboard revealed.
However, Ji Xun was very calm this time.
The last time he got out of the [Lost Mirror Maze], it was all by chance.
It was probably because he realized a little bit of the mystery of the law of time, or because of [JOKER], that he discovered the special space with fifty-three [Forbidden Ruins Stone Tablets].
In short, if he came again, he would not be sure to get out.
But this time was different.
Thinking of something, he glanced at the old man Xu beside him.
Others did not know how to crack this special space, but Ji Xun knew that it was related to the "law of time".
The law of time is one of the supreme laws of the universe.
Ji Xun has seen many masters, but he has only seen two people who have truly touched the mystery of time.
They are Old Man Xu and Che Er.
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 really came true.
And it was because it came true.
Behind the chessboard, he seemed to see a familiar figure of a "chess watcher".
Ji Xun suddenly had a thought in his mind: "Could it be that the mushroom head is 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 a fatal danger.
However, the problem has arisen, how to solve it now?
Qin Rushi cast an inquiring look, as if asking: What should we do now?
Ji Xun knew that some words should not be said too clearly, especially not to let some causes and effects related to Old Man Xu, which are too purposeful, involve everyone.
So he only said one sentence: "Protect Senior Xu."
No one can understand the mystery of time better than an "eternal being".
Everyone fell into thought after hearing this.
No one asked more questions, just nodded silently.
Soon, Ji Xun and the others understood why Old Man Xu said they were lost.
They were clearly walking in one direction, but as they walked, it seemed that they had passed through a space barrier, and fighting suddenly appeared in the dense forest in front of the team.
When they got closer, a half-broken magic tower that used to be ten stories high suddenly came into view.
In the sky, half was blood cloud and half was bright sun.
There were dilapidated buildings all around.
If it wasn't the Firefly Camp, then where else could it be?
After going around in circles, they actually returned to the camp.
Everyone in the Great Sword Group looked at this strange scene with solemn expressions.
The battle in the camp was already very fierce, and the number of Hell Bats was not as many as before, but they still looked like dark clouds floating over the camp.
[World-Destroying Thunder Ape], [Phoenix], [Hell Flying Dragon], [Thunder Dragon Lizard], and [Underworld Peacock], several eighth-level monsters, are fighting with human adventurers in the forest around the camp.
This is already deep in the Monster Forest, and adventurers who can come here have more or less some life-saving skills.
After the panic of the camp being dispersed, the survivors quickly gathered to fight back effectively.
The Holy Church has ambushed so many elites, even if there are pagans making trouble, they can't let a few monsters wipe out the camp like this.
Several large mercenary groups and the Royal Knights have assembled into a battle formation, pinning down the people of the Scarlet Sect and the Holy Church, and the rest are fighting with the monsters.
The monsters were attracted by the breath of the fragments of the Godhead before, and now looking at this posture, they also know that it is probably impossible to snatch that 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, with signs of retreating.
However, Ji Xun and his companions had already proved that no one could get out now.
After clearing up the situation at a glance, Ji Xun looked at the [Underworld Peacock] whose wings were pierced by a magic tower not far away, and suggested: "How about we hunt some monsters first?"
"Yes."
Qin Rushi also nodded.
In the current situation, they could not participate in the melee of several parties.
But they could not get out either.
Rather than watching the battle secretly and being suspected, it is better to pay attention to those monsters first.
If you change to another place, if you want to hunt an eighth-level [Underworld Peacock], you must not only measure whether your own combat power can beat it, but also beware that it can fly away.
Now this space is restricted, and you can't escape.
The wings of the Underworld Peacock are also injured, and there is no better time than this.
Besides, it's not just that peacock. With the naked eye, it was visible that there were at least dozens of level 6 or higher monsters in the forest around the camp, either fighting with humans or fleeing around looking for a way out.
Under normal circumstances, even in the monster forest, it would take ten days or half a month to find such a high-level monster, and it depended on luck.
But now, it was like a zoo, with monsters locked up everywhere and unable to escape.
Just when Ji Xun and his group were looking for trouble with those monsters.
In a shabby little building in the camp.
A young man with star-shaped 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 completely correct. The people of the Holy See will definitely block the space, and it is an unexpected method. Haha, this mirror space, if you don't understand the law of time, there is really no chance to get out. I have to open a hole for them."
As he said, he suddenly took out a black cloak with special patterns and put it on his body, and then took out an ancient mask that looked like stone but not stone and put it on his face.
The mask covered his face, and a sense of mystery from ancient times came to his face.
If Ji Xun was there, he would definitely recognize the pattern on the mask. It was one of the thirteen knights of the Illumination Hermitage - "The Time Speaker".
Before the dawn, the time teller in the dark and desperate night.
