664: Mirror image attack method

The poker-faced man was named Da Xi. Among the Seven Demon Generals, his Mirror Law was an incredibly broken ability. Unless your own power of Law exceeded his, as long as he activated his Law, all of your attacks would be rendered ineffective!

Xiao Cui had just tested this several times. No matter what attacks she used, including the Water Law, she couldn't inflict any damage on him. Instead, all her attacks were reflected back. Fortunately, she hadn't used much force, so even when the power was reflected, she didn't suffer significant injuries, and often she was able to dodge them quickly!

However, actually defeating him was quite difficult because, in terms of Law intensity alone, he was far stronger than her!

What to do?

Heh, it was actually quite simple, because Da Xi had completely pissed her off!

When Da Xi saw a large number of vines appearing all around him, he knew he had been tricked. The Water Law she had unleashed wasn't meant for attacking at all, but rather to provide nourishment for these plants.

For all things to grow, besides the necessary sunlight, the most important thing needed was water. Even a cactus in the desert would perish without the slightest bit of water to support it.

Xiao Cui's original form was a vine spirit created after being tempered by excessive Earth Vein Fire. Therefore, the Law that truly suited her best should have been the Life Law. However, after experiencing hundreds of Reincarnations within the Myriad Paths Reincarnation, she had unexpectedly attained enlightenment through the Water Law.

When she first emerged, even Yang Jian and Sun Wukong felt it was strange and didn't know why she was like this.

However, when Tang Ku returned and asked her about it, he only smiled and said four words: "Let her be!"

"Only Master knows what I want to do..."

Xiao Cui's ability to freely control plants already fell under the category of the Life Law; there was absolutely no need for her to choose a redundant ability.

What she needed was power that would make her innate Divine Ability even stronger.

Thus, a Water Law unique to Xiao Cui was born—or rather, it was a new Law created from the combination of the Water Law and the Life Law.

When her various attacks were launched, many grass seeds and plant seeds were buried within the water currents. Even when the water was reflected back, the seeds remained hidden beneath the current, staying right beside Da Xi.

"Actually, right at the start of the battle, I thought of something: can your power of Law really reflect all attacks? Heh, that might not necessarily be true!"

Xiao Cui suddenly opened her right hand and then clenched her fist tightly.

The vines surrounding Da Xi erupted instantly, tightening violently, and surprisingly combined rapidly to bind Da Xi up like a rice dumpling.

Da Xi remained cold and silent. In his heart, he truly admitted that he had underestimated the woman before him.

"Your Mirror Law can only reflect conscious attacks... hmm, or perhaps hostile attacks. But my vines are existences without any consciousness; their attacks do not carry hostility!"

A long whip suddenly appeared in Xiao Cui's hand, and she chuckled, "You can't reflect this kind of attack at all, can you?"

"Hehehe, hahahaha..."

It was the first time the poker-faced Da Xi had laughed, and he seemed to be laughing quite happily.

"I thought I had encountered a pathetic woman with no joy of battle to speak of. Now it seems you aren't completely useless!"

Da Xi sneered.

"Hmph, laugh all you want. Soon, I'll make you unable to even cry!"

Xiao Cui couldn't help but say angrily, "Even now, you still dare to look down on women!"

Countless barbs suddenly appeared on the long whip in her hand, and it swept toward Da Xi's neck. If this strike connected, even if the opponent truly had a body of vajra, he would suffer serious injuries. One had to know that an injury to the carotid artery was not easy to recover from. It could be said that if this hit, Xiao Cui would have won.

However...

Snap!

The tip of the long whip was suddenly caught by a thin but very powerful hand!

"I forgot to tell you, the Mirror Law can create an identical Clone of myself within the range of my vision..."

Another Da Xi had appeared in front of Xiao Cui without any warning, grabbing the tip of the whip.

"Also, you miscalculated one thing: ordinary plants like this cannot trap a Quasi-Saint, let alone the fact that my power is completely above that of a Quasi-Saint!"

Bang!

With a light struggle, Da Xi broke the vines on his body directly.

"Woman, you really are a formidable character. You are the first to be able to force out so many of my trump cards!"

Da Xi sneered—or rather, both Da Xis sneered simultaneously—"But don't forget, my means of attack is not the Mirror Law!"

Snap!

The whip tip was suddenly severed by a force. It turned out Xiao Cui had seen the situation go south and cut the whip herself, retracting it into her hand. In any case, this whip was made of plants and could be restored at any time, but this Da Xi...

"His means of attack are indeed very strange..."

Xiao Cui couldn't help but frown slightly. The violent explosion just now wasn't something that could be caused by reflecting her own attacks, nor did it seem like an ability the Mirror could produce. So, what exactly was that attack?

"Little girl, have you... seen clearly?"

Da Xi suddenly extended a finger toward her, and specks of golden light gathered on the index finger of his right hand. Before Xiao Cui could react, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. When she turned to look, she discovered a transparent hole had appeared there. A gush of red fluid, along with green plant sap, sprayed out, but then stopped flowing because the wound on her shoulder had been cauterized by intense high heat.

"How can this be..."

Snap...

The whip in her hand was also instantly severed by a ray of golden light. Without warning, a dozen more holes appeared on her body in an instant, each more hideous and terrifying than the last!

"The naked eye can see the light, can capture the light, but the body cannot avoid the direct strike of the light..."

Da Xi sneered, "On the planet where I was born, people were exposed to long-term radiation from the star, which changed the structure of their bodies. Many of them possessed this power... hmm, just like the innate Divine Ability of a Yao Beast..."

Xiao Cui realized something was wrong and turned abruptly to flee toward an upward diagonal angle. She wanted to move into the blind spot of his vision as quickly as possible.

"Heh, it's useless..."

Swish!

A ray of light shot directly from behind her, piercing through her waist and ribs.

"No, the angle of the light emission is wrong. He isn't in that direction!"

Xiao Cui was shocked beyond measure, and suddenly, a thought occurred to her.

Mirrors can reflect light!
