564: Chapter 560 Mirror Image Illusion

Blood Azure Mystic's body froze instantly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face: "Supreme Ancestor, we... we are simply no match for him. Even if we fight to the death, we will only be throwing our lives away in vain. It would be better... better if we run away first. As long as the green hills remain, there's no need to worry about firewood. Once our cultivation improves in the future, we can come back, take our revenge, and retake the Blood Realm!"

"Take revenge? Retake the Blood Realm?" Blood Without Silence sneered, his tone filled with intense mockery, "Do you think we have a future? This kid has absorbed so much Blood Realm Origin Power that before long, his cultivation will break through from Spirit Transformation Late Stage to Peak Spirit Transformation, and perhaps even reach Early Tribulation Crossing Stage. By then, him hunting us down will be as easy as taking something out of a pocket; we won't have any chance to escape!"

He paused, his gaze becoming increasingly icy, and a hint of imperceptible urgency crept into his tone: "Stop hiding it. I know you have a Heaven-Defying treasure. That treasure is an ancient artifact you obtained from a fortuitous encounter, named the 'mirror illusion heaven mirror'. It can replicate an opponent's mirror image, and that mirror image possesses the exact same strength as the opponent and can even copy the opponent's Moves to attack them. It is extremely Heaven-Defying."

"Did you think this treasure could be hidden from me? I have lived for three thousand years; what kind of treasure have I not seen? As soon as you obtained this treasure, I already sensed it, but I never pointed it out, wanting to save this treasure to use against a formidable enemy at a critical moment." Blood Without Silence's voice was cold and firm. "Today is that critical moment. Immediately take out the mirror illusion heaven mirror, replicate a mirror image of Murong Gu, and have the mirror image tangle with him while I take the opportunity to set up an ultimate killing formation to slay both of them together! This is our last chance!"

Upon hearing Blood Without Silence's words, Blood Azure Mystic's eyes were full of shock. He never expected that this Heaven-Defying treasure, which he had treasured for many years and never easily used, would actually be discovered by Blood Without Silence! The mirror illusion heaven mirror was indeed an ancient treasure he had obtained from a fortuitous encounter. It had infinite power, capable of replicating an opponent's mirror image. The mirror image possessed the exact same strength as the opponent and could copy the opponent's Moves to attack them. Moreover, the mirror image's attacks had an extremely strong restraining effect.

However, this treasure had a fatal flaw: it could only be used once and would even damage his own Foundation. Therefore, Blood Azure Mystic had always treasured this item, never using it easily, wanting to save it for the most dangerous and critical moment to save his life and take revenge.

Now that it had been pointed out by Blood Without Silence, he could no longer hide it. Furthermore, he knew that Blood Without Silence was right; this was their last chance. If he did not take out the mirror illusion heaven mirror and replicate a mirror image of Murong Gu, all of them would die here, and the Blood Shadow Sect would be completely annihilated. He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock and panic in his heart, and a flash of resolution crossed his eyes. He slowly raised his right hand and took out a primitive bronze mirror from his storage ring.

This bronze mirror was primitive throughout, its surface covered with complex and eerie patterns. Between the patterns, a faint light flowed, emitting a majestic ancient aura. The mirror surface was smooth as glass, capable of reflecting the images of all things in the world. This was the ancient treasure—the mirror illusion heaven mirror.

Blood Azure Mystic gripped the mirror illusion heaven mirror tightly, his spiritual power surging wildly and pouring continuously into the mirror illusion heaven mirror. He stared coldly at Murong Gu, his eyes filled with killing intent and determination. He knew this was their last chance; if they failed, they would all die without a burial place.

Lu Chen pursed his lips and smiled. mirror illusion heaven mirror? Interesting. This was a treasure he had randomly scattered in the previous Small World. Like his Nine-Life Lamp, it was a supreme divine object. He did not expect it to appear in this lifetime.

It seems this heavenly dao system really has problems; no matter how he formats it, it still retains a portion of the essence from the previous life.

It's a pity. Such a supreme divine object would probably be more than enough to deal with Lu Xiaohu and Dawn Moon from the Divine Realm, yet it is being wasted on Murong Gu. It can be considered a waste of a good thing.

He wondered if Murong Gu could survive this tribulation today.

Lu Chen had a premonition that Murong Gu was very likely to become the key person for breaking through the status level, so he did not wish for Murong Gu to die here, but Lu Chen did not want to intervene.

"mirror illusion heaven mirror, activate!!" Blood Azure Mystic shouted sharply, his hands quickly forming seals. The mirror illusion heaven mirror instantly erupted with a dazzling white light. The white light surged, illuminating the entire Black Wind Valley. On the mirror's surface, Murong Gu's figure slowly emerged. The figure became increasingly clear and realistic. Finally, a figure identical to Murong Gu slowly walked out from the mirror surface.

This figure looked exactly like Murong Gu, dressed in a gold and red brocade robe. Embroidered on the robe were complex Blood Realm patterns, lingering with rich Blood Realm Origin Power. The gold and red light was dazzling, and its aura was exactly the same as Murong Gu's, reaching the Peak of Spirit Transformation Late Stage. Even its eyes and demeanor were indistinguishable from Murong Gu's.

This was the mirror image of Murong Gu replicated by the mirror illusion heaven mirror! The mirror image not only copied Murong Gu's appearance, cultivation, and Moves, but also copied Murong Gu's aura. It even copied the flowing cloud sword in Murong Gu's hand exactly.

"Kill!"

The mirror image opened its eyes, a flash of cold killing intent in them, and shouted sharply. The voice was exactly the same as Murong Gu's, cold and domineering.

Its figure flashed, turning into a stream of gold and red light, charging fiercely towards Murong Gu. The flowing cloud sword in its hand surged with light, and a massive gold and red Sword Qi instantly condensed, slashing fiercely towards Murong Gu. The Move was exactly the same as Murong Gu's Blood Realm sword technique, domineering and sharp, with every Move being fatal.

Murong Gu looked at the mirror image charging towards him, looked at the figure identical to himself, and looked at that familiar Sword Qi, a flash of surprise crossing his face. He did not expect that Blood Azure Mystic actually possessed such a Heaven-Defying treasure, capable of replicating a mirror image identical to himself.

"A bit interesting." Murong Gu said lightly, "To actually be able to replicate a mirror image identical to me, it seems this mirror illusion heaven mirror is truly well-deserved of its reputation. However, even if you replicate my mirror image, it might not be able to defeat me. After all, you are just a Puppet without independent consciousness that only knows how to copy my Moves!"

Before the words fell, Murong Gu's figure flashed, turning into a stream of gold and red light, meeting it head-on. The flowing cloud sword in his hand surged with light, and a massive gold and red Sword Qi instantly condensed, slashing fiercely towards the mirror image's Sword Qi.

"Boom—!"

A heaven-shaking and earth-shattering loud noise exploded in the Black Wind Valley again. Two gold and red Sword Qi collided fiercely. A massive energy shockwave swept towards the surroundings, and countless huge gullies spread out on the ground. The blood-colored lightning in the sky became more frequent, and the sound of thunder was deafening.
