Chapter 277 The Clown's Shadow Trick
As soon as the blood mist cleared, the overall situation in the Shenxu Treasure House was decided.
In the dead and silent city of Innocence, a door of light appeared.
The survivors who had been trapped in the secret realm for seven days also came out one after another.
The Innocence City is a city of adventure.
Most of the city's forces are hunters, mercenaries and speculators.
Death is also commonplace for them.
Although many relatives and friends died, those who walked out of the light door were thankful that they survived.
Everyone's face showed the ecstasy of surviving the disaster.
It's like experiencing a difficult extra-dimensional space. Those who survive almost always get their own big opportunities.
"Hahaha, we are really out! Oh, I also got a volume of gold-level potion formulas. This thing is worth at least tens of millions when sold to alchemy potion manufacturers. Now I am prosperous."
"I He's a mechanic. I got these pages of the "Tras Mechanical Manuscript" which records a lot of technologies that the Federation doesn't have yet! Oh my god, I have a hunch that the mechanical revolution is coming."
"I got it too. A secret volume of third-level secret spells. This is an era-defining spell that I have never seen in the Federal Royal Academy Library."
"My dear, I didn't expect that there are so many in Sinless City. What legendary powerhouses! "Valkyrie" Qin of the Revolutionary Army, "Four-Eyed Monk" Jialan, and the Thief Emperor "Yeying" Kuntu. I have never seen so many top powerhouses in my life. And who was the old qigong master just now? Why do I feel like he is stronger than the legend?"
"Tsk tsk! The original legend is true. It is really eye-opening that there are higher extraordinary levels above the sixth level. ”
"Although many people died this time, after today, our card master civilization will flourish. It is said that those legendary strong men have found a way to break through the 'super level'"
"Yes. It's timeless. The inheritance is continuing, it’s exciting to think about it.”
“We, the Great Ivan Chamber of Commerce, spend a lot of money to purchase various martial arts, spells, potion scrolls, secret scrolls, and mechanical blueprints produced in the secret realm.”< br>
“.”
Most people do not know what those vampires mean, nor do they know the existence of the Silver Moon Sect.
After all, all cases related to Old God believers are handled confidentially.
Prevent people from reciting the names of old gods, which may lead to the spread of contamination.
Ordinary card masters don’t worry so much, they care more about the harvest.
The survivors who walked out of the light door were all sighing and chatting in groups about their experiences these days.
It can be said that almost all those who can leave the secret realm alive have something extraordinary.
The essence of the secret realm is a trial.
They completed the difficult trial and received "rewards" that suited them.
It is lucky to survive, and even more lucky to receive rewards.
Although few people survived this time.
One hundred does not exist.
But there is only one exit from the secret realm.
Right in Downing Street.
Many people did not go far after coming out, but continued to wait to see if they could wait for their relatives and friends to return.
Gradually, the exit of the secret realm became crowded and became as noisy and chaotic as a train station.
Quietly, an inconspicuous middle-aged man wearing a cloak also walked out among the crowd.
He got into the alley, looking like he wanted to leave silently.
But after walking a few steps, a young man walked out of the shadows in the corner.
It seems like a long wait.
The light illuminated a bloodless face.
If Ji Xun were here, he would probably recognize that the mushroom hair style is Jia Yu.
But now he was so skinny that he was falling off his bones.
Jia Yu looked at the man in the cloak and greeted: "Captain."
The man in the cloak was stunned, "Jia Yu?"
This was none other than Xu Jiu Xie Guozhong who has not been seen.
Looking at Jia Yu's appearance, he seemed very puzzled and asked, "Why are you injured like this?"
The mushroom head chuckled: "That's not important. The important thing is that I'm here waiting for the captain."
Xie Guozhong looked confused: "Wait for me?"
Jia Yu smiled mysteriously, no Answered the question: "Captain, where are you going now?"
Xie Guozhong frowned, seeming unwilling to mention this topic: "I have some personal matters to deal with."
Jia Yu He shook his head and didn't say anything more. He just said: "If you are the captain, you will definitely fight to the last moment. You will not come out early."
Hearing this, Xie Guozhong frowned.
There was a conflicting feeling in his heart: Yes, why didn’t I fight the vampire to the end?
Human cognition is a very complex thing.
If it is tampered with, it will cause a series of reactions.
It’s okay to be irrelevant, but if it’s an issue that conflicts with your own worldview and values, it will be very abrupt.
Just like a Jenga tower, you may have no problem extracting many pieces of wood.
But if you touch a certain pillar of wood, it will collapse.
Xie Guozhong has a firm will that is far from ordinary, his three views are stable, and the justice in his heart is his pillar.
To tamper with it even a little bit would actually conflict with his entire outlook on things.
It’s okay if no one wakes me up.
If you really need someone to remind you, you will suddenly wake up and find that your behavior and ideas are in conflict.
Hearing this, Xie Guozhong’s eyes instantly became foggy and he fell into confusion.
Jia Yu didn’t beat around the bush anymore and explained the situation directly: “Captain, your knowledge has been tampered with by the old gods.”
Hearing this, Xie Guozhong suddenly understood something, “ Am I contaminated?”
“No. Not yet.”
Jia Yu shook his head and said, "If you are contaminated, it is impossible for you to come out of the secret realm."
As he said that, he looked at Xie Guozhong and said, "If I guessed correctly, then the source of the pollution 'It should be sealed in your body."
"."
When Xie Guozhong heard this, his brain instantly tingled, as if there was an idea eager to persuade him to leave here quickly.
With these thoughts, he felt inexplicably irritable, and the evil energy all over his body rose uncontrollably, and his murderous intent was exposed.
But there was obvious struggle on his expression.
It seems that this behavior conflicts with some obsessions.
This conflict was so violent that the strong man seemed to have had a fight with himself. In the blink of an eye, he was covered in sweat and panting.
"Huhu. Huh."
At this moment, Xie Guozhong seemed to be trying his best to suppress the beast in his heart, and a low roar came from his throat.
His eyes were confused and clear at times.
He raised his head suddenly, as if he could no longer suppress some of his thoughts, and asked angrily: "What's going on?!"
Jia Yu saw this and understood. What did he say? "Count Nicholas tampered with your cognition and let you escape with the source of the pollution. But unfortunately, what he didn't know was that you predicted that you might be affected before you acted, so you solidified yourself." Some deep understanding in your heart, you will choose to 'trust me absolutely'. This conflicts with your subsequent tampering. That's why you are so contradictory."
"."
Xie Guozhong sounded as if he was stimulated, and his whole body trembled.
The voice inside him told him to leave! ! !
Must! ! !
“Shut up!”
Xie Guozhong shouted violently.
This sound is more like saying to myself.
After all, he couldn't suppress the evil energy all over his body, and it bubbled up.
However, just at the moment when he was about to go berserk, Xie Guozhong bit his tongue, a mouthful of red blood spurted out, and his eyes became clear for a moment.
The spell power he had gathered suddenly turned from the outside to the inside, and he shouted in a low voice, almost gnashing his teeth: "Seal all evil spirits in Turin!"
In an instant, the red evil-killing spirit tattoo disappeared all over his body. Before he could run away, he rushed into the body again.
The collision of two forces within the body is no less than being hit head-on by a top powerhouse.
He couldn't hold back the smell in his throat and spurted out another mouthful of blood: "Pfft~"
It was like being severely injured.
Xie Guozhong's aura dropped by 90%, and the violent evil aura disappeared instantly.
He chose to seal himself to prevent him from losing control and going berserk.
Jia Yu looked at Xie Guozhong who had sealed himself in front of him, as if he had expected it, and murmured: "Captain."
This is the captain he knows.
“.”
Xie Guozhong shook his head, not caring about his injuries.
As Mushroom Tou said, he had an intuition in his heart that made him choose to trust his former assistant.
After taking a few deep breaths, he suppressed his injuries and asked, "So, what happened?"
Jia Yu's eyes were deep and he explained: "Count Nicholas knew that he had no hope of escaping from the secret realm, so he only had one chance to bring out the 'source of pollution'. Either it would be on you or someone else. He didn't dare to bet on whether I could. You have the means to confirm the location of the jar, so if you put it on someone else, you will definitely fail if you are discovered. As for you, captain, you are not only powerful and powerful, but the most important thing is that you are familiar with my character. There is a high chance that they will escape"
"Understood"
Xie Guozhong responded calmly.
After pondering for a moment, he raised his head and asked, "So, do I have to die?"
Hearing this, Jia Yu became rarely silent.
During the conversation, Xie Guozhong kept his eyes fixed on the person in front of him.
It was like seeing the mushroom head who was curious about everything when they first met.
Those days were really good.
He smiled calmly: "If so, please kill me immediately."
The smile was more like encouragement.
Even at the critical moment of life and death, he did not hesitate.
This is the justice in his heart.
Be steadfast.
Jia Yu closed his eyes and said for a long time: "I don't know."
Although this plan killed most of the Scarlet believers, including Count Nicholas, High-rise, but there are still some remnants outside.
He could conclude that the Scarlet Corruption must have a back-up plan.
The current situation is that only by killing Xie Guozhong can we get the jar.
Think of a way to deal with it.
If he is not killed, he will either be polluted or pollute others while he is alive.
Sooner or later it will be a bomb that will explode.
If Jia Yu could be made to hesitate, Count Nicholas's purpose would have been achieved.
"Xiaonan, do you know when the exit of this secret realm will be closed?"
"It should be after sunset."
"In other words, there are still about ten hours. ?”
“Hmm.”
"I plan to try the 'Advanced Shadow' trial."
"Huh? But that will be very dangerous."
"."
On the other side, in the secret realm , Ji Xun and Nan Jing packed up the remaining materials in the altar.
Those pollutants aside, there are still many extraordinary materials.
Magic cores, energy crystals, high-purity crystals, blood-patterned steel, and abyssal scale copper.
Many of them are top-quality goods in Bureau X's warehouse.
Ji Xun also stuffed it into his storage ring happily.
The people in the Oran Royal Court probably knew that the overall situation was decided and they could not kill Nan Jing, so they quietly retreated.
Ji Xun didn’t find the jar in the altar, and he guessed that someone had probably taken him out.
But he didn't dwell too much on it.
If you can think of this, the Light Chaser must have taken it into consideration.
So there must be someone at the exit guarding some fish that slipped through the net.
Don’t worry about it yourself.
And this time the "Innocence City Incident" has caused such a big fuss, the top federal officials have been awakened, and Bureau X will also be purged internally.
Although it is not possible to completely eradicate the remaining believers of the old gods in the sewers, at least they will disappear for many years to come.
But those are no longer what Ji Xun has to consider right now.
No more overwhelming crisis of contamination from the Old Gods.
This Shenxu treasure house has also restored its original function.
There are still sporadic fightings in the city.
The one who made the most noise was Gong Wu, the martial arts idiot, who was still chasing Count Nikolai with a hammer.
It’s rare to encounter an opponent who doesn’t know the outcome, which is definitely not the old man’s character.
Then there are people like Ji Xun who want to seize the time to get more rewards, and they are also looking for opportunities everywhere.
Not long after, the two found an underground training ground where the Law of Fear still existed.
It’s sunny outside now, so there’s no need to worry about monsters suddenly appearing. Although Nan Jing was worried, he was also familiar with Ji Xun's character and didn't say much.
Empty room.
As soon as Ji Xunmo was released, the power of the spell rolled like flames.
He stood there, this time he did not absorb those threads of fear, but allowed them to invade his body and induce the instinctive fear in his heart.
He was also curious about what he feared in his heart.
After a moment, the fear was amplified, and a murderous intent suddenly condensed in the empty training ground.
High above, Nan Jing, who was swinging a pair of big white legs on the iron frame, also noticed it immediately, and his pretty face became nervous for a moment.
I just wanted to warn him to be careful, but I didn’t expect Ji Xun to react faster.
He did a roundhouse kick.
There was a muffled sound of "dong".
Accurately and skillfully cracked the fatal attack on the shadow.
Nan Jing blinked and breathed a sigh of relief, sighing in his heart: "His perception has become so strong."
Ji Xun kicked the guy behind him away, feeling in his heart Already have an evaluation: Is the strength and agility still at the same level as when I came in?
While he was clearing monsters with high intensity in the past few days, he also improved his proficiency in "Yi" and "Qi Sense" by several levels.
I sensed the enemy in advance just now, so I could easily handle it.
However, Ji Xun also saw that this shadow did not have the integrity of a head-on confrontation at all.
To achieve the goal, whatever means necessary.
This is different from my usual personality.
On the opposite side, the gray figure stepped back ten meters, neutralizing the force, and then stood there.
Looking at the face that was exactly the same as his own, Ji Xun's pupils shrank slightly.
Shadow also looked at him.
The smile on its face is evil and weird, and the arc that stretches to the corners of its mouth reveals a violence and madness that is visible to the naked eye.
Ji Xun looked very familiar and murmured in his heart: "Demon personality, right? To be precise, it is a monster that manifests those negative emotions that cannot be controlled by reason."
He I was still very confused before. I can even take life and death very lightly, so what is it that I am afraid of?
This secret realm gave him the answer.
"So, what I fear is not death, but the fear that my uncontrollable will will twist me into a monster?"
Ji Xun has suddenly understood.
It turns out that the fear hidden deep in my heart is myself.
If his will cannot control himself and allows it to turn into a monster, this kind of life is indeed meaningless to him.
Ji Xun felt the restlessness of fear in his heart, but remained calm.
Fear has always been one of the weakest emotions for him.
He observed carefully, thinking that the "Advanced Shadow" should be very difficult, maybe he could do something he didn't know
When he was thinking about what methods the other party would use, he suddenly looked at The shadow body on the opposite side suddenly rose up, and in the blink of an eye it transformed into a werewolf form.
Ji Xun raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is it true that I can't do it?"
He is now contaminated by scarlet, and the blood plague suppresses the werewolf's ability to transform.
But shadows can.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a "pop" and the werewolf with red eyes rushed over.
The speed was so fast that the moment Ji Xunba's body had just condensed, wolf claws appeared on his chest.
The moment the overlord body touched the overlord body, there was a metallic muffled sound like a bell.
The hard concrete floor also seemed to have been hit hard, and large spider web cracks instantly appeared.
"Boom!"
The two figures clashed for a moment, and immediately turned into two afterimages, colliding like ghosts in the huge training ground.
Ji Xun also realized the difficulty of "advanced shadow".
If it weren’t for absorbing a large number of extraordinary characteristics in the past few days, his attributes would have skyrocketed.
Otherwise, I am afraid that in the face-to-face meeting just now, I will be crushed by my own transformed attributes.
Even severely injured.
However, even if the physical attributes have reached the level of overflowing the body, they are still a little worse than the shadow of the werewolf state.
Fortunately, my proficiency in various martial arts and magical mystical techniques has improved significantly in the past few days, and I can barely cope with the pressure with my skills.
Ji Xun had a fierce battle with the werewolf shadow.
Having killed junior and intermediate shadows before, he already knew that the other party was familiar with all his martial arts skills.
Shadow could think of almost everything he could think of.
And the methods are even more sinister.
Ji Xun also experienced his vicious side.
Shadow will use any means that can hurt others.
Even many martial arts skills, Ji Xun himself never thought he could use them so viciously.
This kind of fighting not only consumes a lot of physical strength, but also cannot relax the mind at all.
Every moment you have to think about what means the shadow will use to deal with you.
The "Devil Personality" is a pure killing machine, it carries no baggage.
Shadow will use the "Immortality Curse" to recover at all costs, which still becomes Ji Xun's biggest headache.
But Ji Xun also has advantages.
He had absorbed too much corrupted blood and was worried that he would not be able to consume it.
Furthermore, the blood plague contamination gave him some vampire recovery abilities.
This fierce battle was destined to last for a long time since both sides failed to end the battle quickly from the beginning.
In the huge training room, it was like a thunderstorm night, with thunderous vibrations constantly heard.
Qidi is also constantly refreshing.
"Fighting proficiency +331, you have advanced to 'Master Fighting Skills'"
"Combat comprehension 'Floating Kick' proficiency +21"
"You caught it' Gangqi Prison's flaw, proficiency +17"
"Combat Comprehension, 'Yu Liu·Beng' proficiency +14"
"."
Just like the previous two battles with shadows, Ji Xun's skill proficiency skyrocketed in the battle with himself.
Not only did he see his own shortcomings, his understanding of martial arts also reached a new level.
It feels like two selves are practicing at the same time, and then all the insights are gathered in the ontology.
Dangerous and wonderful experience.
“Bump!”
"Touch!"
"Touch!"
"."
The two of them were fighting fiercely in the room.
On the steel frame on the top, the south mirror can also be watched intently.
Only then did Miss Meatball realize that her friend whom she hadn't seen for a long time had become so powerful.
The endless means are emerging, even with her current vision, she is dumbfounded.
From the very beginning of this battle with this bystander, it was destined that Ji Xun would not die.
However, if outsiders intervene, the rewards will be much less.
So Nanjing also listened to Ji Xun’s instructions and never took action.
She just looked at it.
Watching Ji Xun fight with his shadow for two full hours.
Both parties use the Gluttony Breathing Technique, possessing spell power and recovery abilities that far exceed those of the same level.
It was like a tireless, fierce battle from beginning to end.
Nanjing also saw that Ji Xun was taking this opportunity to spy on his own weaknesses and learn new things.
The more the battle goes on, the more proficient Ji Xun becomes.
At a certain moment, the turning point of the battle appeared.
Suddenly, the enlightenment was refreshed: "Combat comprehension, proficiency in attracting the gods to fall +14, you have comprehended the magical power 'Natural Disaster·Earth Crying'!"
At that moment, Ji Xun was speechless. A strange color suddenly appeared on the expression: "It's done!"
Actual combat is the best shortcut to improve martial arts.
Gong Wu once said that his understanding of most of his special skills was due to accidental death in actual combat.
Sure enough!
These words came true at this moment.
The fragment of the magical power [Natural Disaster·Earth Ming] that I had never been able to learn before, in this high-intensity fierce battle, I caught the moment of inspiration by chance.
Ji Xun did not hesitate to waste some of his life to drag the battle until now.
Just waiting for this opportunity.
He has been waiting!
"Hahaha"
The depression in Ji Xun's heart was swept away.
The shadow knows something that he does not know. Similarly, if he wants to kill the shadow, he has to use something that the other party does not know.
This newly obtained magical power of [earth ringing] is perfect.
At the moment of realization, Ji Xun punched the shadow.
The violent shadow is still immersed in that crazy fighting state.
He thought it was the same as before, thinking that even if he resisted a hard blow, he could recover instantly.
Even regardless of the injury, I want to exchange injury for injury.
However, unexpectedly, when Ji Xun punched out, the strange gravity lingering on his fist suddenly exploded.
Hitting it in the air was like breaking a piece of transparent glass, and I could see the void cracking with white light cracks.
"Ba Fist·Crying of the Earth!"
Ji Xun saw that Shadow had been fooled, his expression suddenly froze, and the gravity accumulated in his fist erupted like a volcano.
“Crack!”
The sound of earthquakes and landslides shook people's hearts and souls.
The shadow was dumbfounded. It didn't expect Ji Xun to hit such a punch that it couldn't understand.
But if you want to react and dodge, it is already too late.
The force of this punch not only covered the fist surface, but also a large space nearby, which was shattered at the same time.
The winner was decided at this moment.
The magical level of martial arts triggered the laws of natural disasters. It was like a mirror being shattered, and the shadows in the mirror were also torn apart.
Killed?
No!
However, before Ji Xun could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a "qi" appear in his own shadow!
“Not dead!”
Ji Xun's pupils shrank sharply.
Although I don’t know what secret method Shadow used to avoid the fatal blow just now.
But from the moment he understood [Earth Ming], no matter how hard this advanced shadow struggled, he had no chance of winning.
What's more, Ji Xun didn't give it a chance to attack.
Without hesitation, he punched again, shattering the void where the "qi" was into pieces.
After the second kill, Qidi prompted: "Kill the 'Advanced Mirror Copy' and obtain the exclusive secret technique 'Joker's Shadow Trick*1'"
"Eh"
Ji Xun punched twice in succession, draining most of the newly accumulated mana power.
I just wanted to take a breath to relieve the pressure on my heart, but then my expression suddenly brightened when I looked at Qidi and the booklet on the corpse.
A soft eh.
[Joker's Shadow Trick]
Detailed explanation: JOKER professional sequence exclusive talent ability; after use, it condenses a shadow clone that can share perception and some abilities; the shadow can superimpose the original body's perception, comprehension, and practice progress by 100%; Comes with the skill [Shadow Stand], immune to critical strikes;
“It’s an exclusive secret method?”
Ji Xun was stunned for a moment.
Although he had previously felt that killing high-level shadows would bring high rewards.
But I didn't expect to get JOKER's exclusive secret method.
"So, the shadow that escaped the fatal blow just now used this substitute ability?"
Ji Xun looked at the introduction of the secret method, his eyes stagnant slightly.
This is a life-saving skill!
And Ji Xun also saw another important point: can shadows be superimposed to achieve 100% comprehension?
"In other words, I can let Shadow practice in the future and do other things myself? Or practice at the same time, double the effect? Or is 1+1 greater than 2?"
Ji Xun doesn't know if this secret method is his own As understood.
But no matter what, this is just right for him who has now mastered the mysterious magic of many magics!
Before, I felt that there was too much to learn and I was too busy to do all the work, but now the shadows can practice and comprehend together.
Exclusive special skills!
