Barrier of Light

Up and down the mountain, heavy snow was flying.

When I saw "myself" in Zhongyuan's team, a "familiar" feeling of confusion came to my heart!

If his mental power wasn't strong enough to make Gu Shen...at this moment, Gu Shen would probably suspect that he was the so-called "fake".

Mirror dream, is this a mirror dream?

The Gu Shen opposite is fake. This question is actually not important. What is important is... how did he be replaced by the "Mirror World"?

What happened when the bonfire was burning?

Gu Shen's thoughts were pulled back at the moment of the gunshot.

"boom!"

A red and silver bullet pierced the wind and snow and hit Gu Shen's forehead.

This shot hits home! Just come here to die!

Gu Shen's face was expressionless, and with a thought, the [Iron Throne] roared out, and the nameless iron armor roared among the black snow, condensing into a black shield!

Light and fire are flying!

Fireworks of bullets exploded on the iron shield. At the same time, Gu Shen threw the lantern he was carrying in front of him, and the weak "blazing fire" in the core of the lantern exploded in the air——

Night turns to day!

"Bang bang bang!"

Intensive gunfire was released at this moment. Gu Shen's figure flying upside down on the mountain top flickered and shuttled through the fiery web woven by the gunfire. This scene was somewhat like the scene during the duel between Yuan Jia...

Thinking of this, Gu Shen's heart trembled slightly, and a certain idea in his mind seemed to be confirmed by three points at this moment.

From the moment the shot was fired.

He suspected that... this entire mountaineering team was an illusion of the "mirror world", but the perception given to him was too real. The blazing fire trapped by the golden hoop of fighting could not break the dream with all its strength. You can only "fight" with the opponent in this dream.

On the top of the black snow mountain, broken light splashed everywhere.

[Iron Throne] can control all low-level "iron elements" and is not limited to the display of physical forms. The nameless iron shield suddenly dispersed in the gunfire and turned into dozens of iron lights, surrounding it like flying birds. Gu Shen spun quickly, accurately capturing the trajectory of the bullet in the air and intercepting it. Within a few seconds, the sound of multiple explosions waxed and waned. The scene was very spectacular.

Gu Shen's remaining ray of fire can still achieve the "multi-tasking" of the Iron Throne in this scene.

Gu Shen held his breath.

He stretched out two fingers and caught a bullet aimed at the center of his eyebrow.

"laugh!"

This bullet, unlike any other, broke through the mental defense of the iron shield and contained extremely dangerous high temperatures.

Phoenix fire! ?

Gu Shen's eyes became a little hesitant. He used his mental power to control the Iron Throne to intercept the shot, which consumed a considerable part of his mental power... This was the bullet fired by "Zhong Yuan", and the blazing force wrapped around the bullet case. Fire seems to be able to burn everything in the world!

In this mirror dream, can even the power of the climber's sealed object be reproduced?

It was this shot that made Gu Shen sure...

The mountaineering team in front of me are all replicas!

With Zhong Yuan's eleventh-level peak strength, if he really had murderous intentions and wanted to shoot a fatal shot, his "iron shield" would definitely not be able to withstand it to this extent——

At that time, I am afraid that I will need to summon the Ruler of Truth to save my life.

"Since you are so cruel..."

"Don't blame me for being heartless!"

Gu Shen instantly lowered his body, stepped on the thin iron shield that was pieced together in an instant, slid down from the top of the sky, and slammed into the team near the top of the mountain like a rocket.

He has figured out the general characteristics of Mirror Dream.

The bad news is that this mirror dream is different from the nightmares he has encountered in the past. It is not just "bluffing". Even Zhong Yuan's [Phoenix Ring] ability can be retained. This shows that... if the dreamer fails in the battle, it will be extremely serious. It is possible to be killed!

But the good news is that this weird Black Mountain seems to have only copied part of the attributes of the extraordinary, and is not complete.

This also shows that these people are not insurmountable.

There was a "boom"!

On the top of the mountain, a huge crater was created!

Gu Shen directly started fighting in close combat. He knew very well that in the face of the encirclement and killing force, he needed to tear the hole directly from the inside. If he extended the distance, he would only be continuously consumed and eventually there would be no chance to counterattack.

Fire flowed in the dark night and crashed on the top of the snow-capped mountains.

The combat IQ of these "Mirror Dream Replicas" is quite high, much higher than the simulated AI of the battle cabin... The moment Gu Shen fell, the entire team spread out.

They can guess what Gu Shen wants to do!

No... to be precise, it is the "self" in the team. The center of the spread of the entire team is the replica of oneself.

When Gu Shen saw this scene, his eyes suddenly darkened.

The moment it crashed down, he rushed towards him to kill him!

Kill the fakes first!

The distance of tens of meters was reached in an instant. A certain member of the team was very close to the fake "self". At this moment, he stepped forward decisively. Gu Shen expressionlessly slapped the member, directly hitting the member. fly.

The next moment!

The two Gu Shen collided face to face.

The self in the mirror dream showed a faint smile.

Gu Shen's pupils contracted slightly.

At this moment... he remembered the scene when the bonfire held up the cup of black water. He reflected in the water seemed to have such a weird smile.

"boom--"

Gu Shen punched the counterfeit Gu Shen hard on the cheek. The heavy snow exploded and flew into pieces. The thin figure in the mirror dream was sent flying backwards and blasted into a stone wall not far away.

However... broken snow was flying.

The fake Gu Shen didn't seem to be in much pain. He slowly held his sides from the pit in the stone wall, stood up, and shook himself out of the black snow and gravel. He was so calm and indifferent, staring with a hint of mockery. Own.

Immediately afterwards.

The fake's forehead lit up with a ray of fire.

Gu Shen's heart sank and he couldn't believe it.

"Blazing fire... can also be copied?"

This scene has exceeded the scope of his understanding... On the surface, Blazing Fire's ability is S-level, but Gu Shen knows that the reason why this ability is rated S-level is because the federal government's upper limit for extraordinary abilities is the highest. Just S-class.

"No……"

"The 'blazing fire' it replicates is far inferior to mine..."

Shocked for a second, Gu Shen quickly regained his composure. Similar things had not happened before. Xu Yan also tried to use the "Fire Stealer" to steal the power of blazing fire, but he failed. That was with the help of the Dionysian. !

"High temperature, possessing mental fluctuations, capable of linking and commanding..."

Gu Shen's eyes stared at the fake. The wisp of fire on the other person's forehead had already reproduced many of the characteristics of "blazing fire", but the most important one had not been revealed yet.

Is it because I didn’t show it?

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

A bold idea emerged in my mind.

next moment--

"drink!"

With a loud shout, the iron armor covering Gu Shen's body spread instantly!

[Iron Throne] is a top-level defensive ability, but this does not mean... [Iron Throne] can only be used for defense.

Because Gu Shen does not have as high an ability proficiency as Iron Five.

He specializes in Blazing Fire and has no more energy to study the [Iron Throne], so he has always only used it to control the iron shield and use it with his mental power to achieve instant reorganization to prevent unexpected surprise attacks.

But this ability, in the hands of Apostle Tie Wu, is a terrifying group attack technique that can slaughter an entire Lion Alley.

The iron shield was dispersed by Gu Shen's mental control and flew in all directions.

At this moment, the "fake" who was in charge of the command in the distance sneered without any panic. He also raised his palm and summoned a similar "iron shield", using his mental power to control his iron piece to intercept Gu Shen. offensive.

Gu Shen's expression remained unchanged.

Since this mirror dream can copy Zhongyuan's [Phoenix Ring], then copying your own iron piece is nothing...

But what he needs to prove is how far this mirror dream's copying ability has reached.

Can Jingmeng be able to reproduce the unique "special material" of a non-sealed object unearthed from a tundra tomb like the nameless armor?

soon.

Gu Shen's idea was confirmed!

"珰!"

With a crisp sound, two waves of iron collided together. It was almost a one-sided crushing. After Gu Shen's fake "iron shield" was dispersed, it was crushed and shattered!

At this moment, the fake's expression suddenly changed.

He looked at Gu Shen in shock and surprise...as if he had encountered something he couldn't understand.

"Ah……"

Gu Shen no longer hesitated and set out to kill him again!

really!

Jingmeng's copying ability is limited. For example, the nameless armor, a special object that is so weird that even Mr. Gu can't tell the date, cannot be copied at all!

Because the iron armor is not a sealed object!

It only has one quality: "indestructible"!

In addition, Gu Shen guessed that the copying ability of this mirror dream was probably related to his "cognition". He only saw Zhong Yuan using the [Phoenix Ring] to make a fire, but did not see the real [Phoenix Ring] 】Battle scene, so the intensity of the phoenix fire lingering on the bullet is not much different from the intensity I felt before!

Moreover, this fake had just mastered the "iron armor" posture, and it looked decent, almost the same as mine.

But in fact, it is far different!

I used the [Iron Throne] to react with the nameless iron shield and shoot it out instantly. There is nothing in this world that is faster than connecting with the mind!

The counterfeit self uses mental power to control these iron pieces...

This is a poor imitation. The reason for this is probably that this "mirror dream" is observing itself. It has its own unique set of logic, but it does not have the ability to touch the root of things!

The biggest irrefutable evidence is the fierce battle that lasted for several minutes, but was very dry.

After setting foot on the snowy mountain, the members of the team did not use their abilities at all... so the only things this "Mirror Dream" could copy were their equipment and its own "blazing fire"!

Gu Shen turned his wrist.

The iron piece streaked through the air, bringing out puff after puff of blood... He showed no mercy and directly ended the lives of the six team members. The sound of the gunfire died instantly, and there was still a sound in the sky.

The iron pieces scattered around the top of the snow-capped mountains, stained with blood for the first time, instantly swept back in the direction of Gu Shen!

Without even raising his head, he knew that it was the clone Yuan Yuan who was coming to kill him. The moment the voice reached his ears, Gu Shen stopped instantly, turned around suddenly, and turned around to block the attack. Thousands of iron pieces condensed into a sword in an instant!

"Buzz——"

The black snow was filled with iron wires gathered by thousands of blades, and scarlet blood mist that was moved too fast.

The two swords collided, and Gu Shen was obviously the winner!

The familiar face reflected in Gu Shen's eyes.

But at this moment, Yuan Yuan's face was pale, and against the black snow, he looked even more miserable.

There was a line of blood down his throat.

Gu Shen put away the knife and stood up.

He let out a long breath and looked at the mountain wall in the distance.

There are only two people left.

The blond man stood in front of "himself"... The black snow was as dense as the tide, and he was almost drowned. From beginning to end, he seemed not to care about his "teammates", just watching everything indifferently and calmly.

It can be seen that he is just like the fake himself. It is the "high-level existence" in this mirror dream.

"I'm really... a little curious."

The black snow was flying, and this ominous thing of death and silence fell all over the sky and the earth.

The corpses lying on the mountain path looked even more eerie with the black snow falling on them.

But Gu Shen didn't feel depressed.

He wielded the knife with both hands and had no intention of taking action immediately. He just looked at the two "big living people" in front of him and sighed seriously: "Since this is a broken chain area and a disaster dreamland, what I say now, There should be no outsiders who can hear it... If you two can talk, why don't you chat with me before you die. I want to know where this Black Mountain comes from. Isn't it planted by some unscrupulous guy twenty years ago? Something that came down, right?”

Unscrupulous guy.

Naturally, this refers to Hades.

Planting such a mountain above the Black River has the meaning of "I built this mountain and planted this road. If you pass this place, you will leave money to buy your life"... This is really like Pluto's method of doing things.

What made Gu Shen suspicious the most was the black snow falling on his body, which made him feel happy.

The more they fight, the more exhausted they become.

And he was just the opposite.

This black mountain is consistent with my horoscope, and the more I play, the more energetic I become.

"..."

After waiting quietly for ten seconds, Gu Shen unexpectedly received silence from the two of them.

"Well, I didn't expect you to be able to answer my questions."

Gu Shen smiled and looked at Zhong Yuan, "Do you have any last words before you leave?"

The blond man raised his palms and clenched his fists.

A faint phoenix cry stirred in the black snow, and a faint fire ignited where his ring was, vaguely condensed into a phoenix...

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

This is a sight I have never seen before...

According to his previous inference, the mirror dream on the Black Mountain was imitated based on the scene "it" observed.

All the battle scenes are traceable.

So, the Phoenix Ring's Fire Condensation is obviously a scene that happened on the other side...

Zhong Yuan also entered the mirror dream.

"Although I don't have any last words, thank you for the information you gave me."

Gu Shen spoke softly.

He raised the iron knife.

The phoenix fire rushed toward him——

The flames of light were overwhelming, extremely grand, and the black snow on the Black Mountain rumbled and trembled. At this moment, the snow wave broke, and the tens of feet of fire phoenix stepped on the sky, its majestic body burning the black snow... Gu Shen's figure was submerged in the sky. In the midst of the fire, he did not retreat at all. At this last moment, he put on the ghost veil and squeezed out a little more "blazing fire".

This is a "battle without soldiers."

From beginning to end, the blazing fire he used to attack was just a small wisp.

Until now, it is no exception.

Using the wisp of blazing fire squeezed out of the ghost veil, Gu Shen just used it to open a pure barrier in front of him. They are both "flames". The "incomplete phoenix fire" copied by Jing Meng cannot compete with Gu Shen. The "blazing fire" confrontation between Shen's eyebrows, so this seemingly grand attack only needs a ray of blazing fire to resolve... If there is a qualitative gap in the confrontation between extraordinary people, it cannot be made up by quantity. of.

"Boom!"

The fire surges.

The iron knife in Gu Shen's palm flew out against the tide, splitting into two, then two into four, and instantly turned into a thin blade quenched with blazing flames, penetrating the blond man——

After a few seconds.

He raised his palm again, and the sound of countless superimposed collisions of black iron sounded under his palm. The split iron peaks reunited into a long knife, which was stamped into the snow. The burning "Phoenix Fire" quickly extinguished.

Half of the night sky was burned red, and large groups of fire clouds burned in the dark sky, like red pupils that opened one after another, looking very evil...

Gu Shen slowly came to the counterfeit himself.

"Ideology link, mental induction, tactical command..."

He said slowly: "Let me think about it, what else can you do now?"

behind.

There was total silence, and this snow-capped mountain ushered in true silence.

The "copies" in the mirror dream have been killed by Gu Shen, and in the end only "self" is left.

Gu Shen wore the ghost veil and compressed the fake Gu Shen's space step by step. Finally, the two of them came to the blind corner of the stone wall. He looked at the pale "himself" indifferently.

The two looked at each other.

The fake had no way out, so he simply closed his eyes and pretended to let himself do whatever he wanted... Gu Shen knew that this guy could take out a mask with the same "green face and fangs" from his arms at any time and wear it on his cheek , but it is a pity that the ability of this ghost veil, like the previous iron piece, is an object that "Mirror Dream" cannot detect from the surface.

His own mental power and the Douzhan Golden Hoop formed a delicate balance.

Maybe it's because Baizhu in Nagano has prepared a trick in advance, or maybe this balance just needs a little external force to break... Once you wear this mask, there will be a wisp of "blazing fire" that is neither too much nor too little. Being squeezed out.

What Jing Meng saw was that after putting on the ghost veil, his mental power became even stronger.

That's all.

"Why don't you... give this a try?"

Gu Shen slowly stretched out two fingers, and a dark fire burned on his fingertips.

The "blazing fire" burned the black snow, and also burned the "extraordinary source" floating between heaven and earth.

He showed this ability towards the fake.

And a few seconds later.

The counterfeit's expression changed dramatically, and the "blazing fire" burning between his brows was no longer stable, and began to tremble violently... The extraordinary source surrounding him also began to tremble violently.

Gu Shen watched this scene calmly.

It seems that the "copying" of Mirror Dream is out of control.

Whatever he reveals, Jingmeng will copy... The power of burning "source matter" that goes against the iron law will be copied by Jingmeng faithfully.

But, is this a power that can be replicated?

If you want to violate the iron law, you will inevitably suffer backlash!

"Uh-huh..."

Not long after, the fake Gu Shen's brows were blazing and completely collapsed. Triggered by the law of forced copying by Jingmeng, the blazing fire madly attracted the surrounding source matter, and when it collapsed, it caused a black snowfall of hundreds of meters in radius. Rolling against the current, an explosion finally exploded vigorously on the mountain wall. The fake could not carry the powerful power of the mirror dream reproduction, and exploded under the contradiction between iron laws and rules!

After a while.

The slightly hot "Replica Blazing Fire" scattered on the ground and dissipated together with the Phoenix Fire.

Smoke billows.

At a very close range, Gu Shen, who suffered all the impact of the explosion, was unscathed. He waved his sleeves and retracted the "iron shield" in front of him. He looked at the blood and corpses everywhere with a complicated expression.

The battle...is finally over.

This mirror dream is indeed strange.

Logically speaking, since you have encountered danger and successfully eliminated it, you should feel relieved. Why is it that up to this moment, I still feel uneasy?

Gu Shen was a little worried... about the situation on the other side of the snow mountain.

Judging from the final performance of Phoenix Fire, Zhong Yuan's team must have fallen asleep.

He hasn't figured out the so-called mirror dream law yet. If a "battle" will break out in this snow mountain, then why did Zhong Yuan go down the mountain directly last time?

And the question that he couldn't figure out the most.

When exactly was he pulled into the dream?

If he can't know the cause of "dream", then he can't get rid of "dream". Is he going to keep walking along the mountain road like this?

Gu Shen rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little headache.

He looked in front and then behind.

At this time, he really hopes to meet someone.

It seemed that the goddess of fate heard the voice in Gu Shen's heart.

"clatter."

"Da da."

At the foot of the snow-capped mountains, the sound of footsteps really seemed to come from the direction from which I came.

This time.

A fierce danger alert came from the cross pendant!

Gu Shen was startled. He grasped the [Goddess of Destiny's Protection], thinking that it couldn't be such a coincidence... But when his eyes touched the group of figures behind the snow, the unsolved doubt lingering in his mind , it became clear instantly.

All along, the cross pendant has been giving itself a danger warning.

But when encountering the mirror dream clone... the warning of the cross pendant was not even conveyed. It was not because the object was not sensitive enough. On the contrary, this artifact that knew destiny had already issued the correct warning to Gu Shen. Guidelines!

The biggest "disaster" on this snow-capped mountain is not Jingmeng or Black Snow.

But...

"Meng Xiao."

The black snow was rolling, and Gu Shen stood on the top of the mountain, squinting at the eight-man team marching in the heavy snow. The black snow was rolling, and he was not allowed to get close to the leader's body, because his robe was flying around, and it was constantly spilling. Pieces of bright divine patterns appeared one after another, which were the blessings of the supreme god, directly fighting many disasters, many ominous things, and retreating far away!

This is not a power that Jingmeng can replicate.

This is the real person.

As they approached the top of the mountain, the team also stopped.

Meng Xiao raised his head and looked at the young figure wrapped in the black snow at the top of the mountain.

His eyes were full of brilliant light, without any distinction between pupils and pupils.

Therefore, the smile displayed on this face at this moment seemed a little penetrating.

Meng Xiao's hoarse voice echoed above the snow-capped mountains.

"Finally found you... Gu Shen."
