In the thick snow.
When everyone heard Lang Buli’s shout, they revealed confused expressions, not understanding what he meant.
Only Wang Xiao’s expression changed, as if he had suddenly thought of something. However, before he could remind everyone, Lang Buli, who was on the other side of the battlefield, had already moved.
Densely packed purple light patterns crawled onto Lang Buli’s face like tentacles. This was a sign that a Purple Star lord had pushed his energy to the limit.
At the same time, ripples began to appear on the misty mirror. Like a lake blown by the wind, a few blurry shadows slowly appeared.
“Roar!”
With a loud wolf howl, an [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] jumped out of the mirror, followed by [Raging Lava Bear], [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] and [Silver Shadow Leopard]…
At this moment, all the soldiers that had been projected by the ancient bronze mirror walked out of the ripple mirror. A strange and evil aura emitted. Even Wang Xiao and the others, who were hundreds of meters away, could clearly sense it!
This time, even without Wang Xiao’s reminder, everyone knew what had happened.
Qi Lianjun’s expression instantly turned serious. “If he can project the previous soldiers, won’t our strategy of blocking its visibility be useless?”
“I’m afraid it’s more than that…
Wang Xiao pursed his lips and said softly. His expression was unprecedentedly solemn. “Don’t forget that Lang Buli is not a new lord. Who knows what that mirror has projected in the past?”
Hearing this, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat and their expressions instantly turned incomparably ugly!
Although those mirror projections were difficult to deal with, they were still their own soldiers after all. They would only waste some time if they attacked according to the weaknesses of the soldiers.
However, if that mirror could project the soldiers that had been projected previously, the situation would be completely different.
How many battles had the Lang brothers experienced? How many soldiers had they seen? How many soldiers had Lang Buli projected?
Wang Xiao did not know these questions, but from the fact that the two of them had once been imprisoned by the Purple Star’s Holy Court, it definitely wasn’t few.
“Tianyu, stop the snow.”
Wang Xiao took a deep breath and said helplessly, “If we can’t stop the projection, this heavy snow will be meaningless. It will instead affect our observation of the situation on the battlefield.”
Fang Tianyu nodded and did not say anything. She activated her mind to recall the [Ice Mountain Saintess] back to her territory. Then, the snow that filled the sky also disappeared.
Their vision widened again. Everyone saw that on the other side of the battlefield, a group of soldiers had also appeared in front of Lang Buli. The other party’s lineup was almost identical to theirs.
The only difference was that the Lang brothers had a mirror image of the [Nine Head Taotie], while Wang Xiao had an additional [Holy Archangel].
The evil aura intertwined with the holy white light, causing invisible sparks to explode in the air.
No one spoke. On the huge ice mountaintop, there was only the sound of the cold wind whistling in the distance. However, the atmosphere at this moment was more solemn than ever!
Whoosh—
With a soft sound, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] jumped out and once again assumed the responsibility of being the vanguard.
At the same time, the mirror image of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] also jumped out of its side and rushed straight towards the main body of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf]!
The distance between the two camps was only a few hundred meters. The two [Ice Thunder Horn Wolves] almost instantly collided.
The claws of the mirror image of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] were wrapped in lightning, but it did not expect the other party to not fight it at all. It did not even have the intention to stop. It turned around and rushed to the side!
This sudden situation stunned the mirror image [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf], and it subconsciously turned around with the other party. Seeing that the situation was not good, Lang Buli was about to give an order when a silver light suddenly flashed in front of him!
[Wind Splitting Claw]!
The Silver Shadow Leopard, which had recovered to its peak state, swung its claw, and the violent wind blade instantly cut off one of the ears of the mirror image Ice Thunder Horn Wolf. This was only because it had sensed the danger and lowered its head to dodge. Otherwise, this claw would have directly cut off half of its head!
The mirror image [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] howled in pain and its heart burned with anger.
However, just as it waved its wolf claws and was about to attack, it realized that the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was no longer in front of it. In its place was the [Raging Lava Bear] that had already switched to the [Berserk Beast Form].
“Roar!!!”
The [Raging Lava Bear] roared and slapped the ground with its palms. Before the mirror image [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] could react, its body was instantly pierced by countless sharp earth spikes!
Immediately after, a holy light as thin as a cow’s hair shot down from the sky. The mirror image [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] did not even let out a scream before it turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated with the wind.
The same battle happened everyvvhere on the battlefield.
Under Wang Xiao’s arrangements, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] and the [Silver
Shadow Leopard] used their extremely fast speed to roam the entire battlefield. They used the strategy of creating a diversion to continuously cause damage to the local soldiers.
The moment the enemy soldiers were in a daze from the pain, the [Violent
Lava Bear] and [Shadow Golden Thorn Spider] would attack. They would use [Earth Spike] and [Piercing Spider Spear] to nail the other party to the ground and finally let the [Holy Archangel] kill them in one strike!
In less than a minute, more than half of the mirror soldiers that Lang Buli had just projected had died. Even though he had ordered the [Nine Head Taotie] clone to save the situation in time, he was still unable to reverse the situation.
Although Wang Xiao’s soldiers were also injured in the battle, in the [Life Array] that Yang Fan activated at full power, those wounds healed before they could even bleed.
Under this situation, the difference in strength between the two sides widened again. However, this time, the person who had the advantage was Wang Xiao.
At the edge of the battlefield.
Seeing the number of mirror soldiers on the field continuously decrease, everyone’s morale also rose.
Yang Fan drank a [Recovery Potion] and sized up the battlefield. He chuckled and said, “According to the current situation, we don’t even need Old Tang and Lin Dong’s help. We can deal with them ourselves!”
“That’s right!”
Han Bufan echoed with a smug expression, “Those mirror soldiers look powerful, but in the end, they can’t even withstand a [Holy Light Sanction].
They’re simply too weak!”
Fang Tianyu frowned slightly when she heard this. “Don’t get too excited. If not for the fact that the divine soldiers have a restraining effect on those mirror images and the cooperation of Wang Xiao’s soldiers, how could it be so smooth?”
As soon as he finished bragging, he was exposed. Han Bufan immediately revealed an awkward expression. He was about to say something to make up for it when he was interrupted by Wang Xiao.
“You can have morale, but not arrogance. Speak less!”
Wang Xiao said in a low voice with a solemn expression, “I have an ominous feeling… ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. They followed Wang Xiao’s gaze and discovered that ripples had appeared on the mirror of the ancient bronze mirror at some point. A blurry phantom slowly appeared in the depths of the mirror.
The distance was too far, so Wang Xiao and the others could not see what it was. However, they were certain that the outline of the phantom was not any soldier that already existed on the battlefield!
“Fang Tianyu! Tell Old Tang and Lin Dong to get ready!”
Wang Xiao hurriedly reminded loudly.. He stared fixedly at the phantom in the mirror and muttered to himself, “The big guy is coming…”
