What do you mean I'm a ghost story?

Chapter 55 Wu Mian Body

Soon, upon hearing the noise, Grandpa Zhang and Zhang Hai rushed up to the second floor.

Immediately following were bursts of joyful cries.

A moment later, Zhang Hai came downstairs carrying a little girl who looked exactly like the previous clone.

The little girl was asleep, but there were no injuries on her body, and her chest was rising and falling steadily, as if she were sound asleep.

"Grandmaster……"

Grandpa Zhang was cautious; he walked quietly to Xia Qing's side and gave her a pleading look.

"Don't worry, there's no problem. It's just your granddaughter."

Xia Qing knew what he was thinking, and nodded.

He had already used the Money Dart Technique to sense that the little girl only had a small amount of Mirror Demon aura on her body due to contact, and there was no strong Mirror Demon aura.

It cannot be a clone or the Mirror Demon in disguise.

"Okay, okay, okay, that's great."

Grandpa Zhang seemed to completely relax after hearing Xia Qing's words, and with tears in his eyes, he stepped forward and hugged his son and granddaughter tightly.

"Master, thank you, thank you, I...I..."

Zhang Hai then handed his daughter to Grandpa Zhang, and with tears in his eyes, he went to Xia Qing, thanking her repeatedly. Then he slapped himself hard across the face.

This is regret for his own disbelief in the superstitions that led to his daughter's imprisonment and his father's near-mental breakdown.

It was also a way of repenting for his previous disrespect towards Xia Qing.

"No need for that. It's good that the person has been found. Let's talk about it once we get out of here."

Xia Qing also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. He lifted his foot and hooked the halberd he had thrown down earlier, which was wrapped in demon-slaying golden light as he chanted.

Click!

He swung the halberd.

The full-length mirror shattered instantly.

Then the entire space seemed to shatter along with the mirror, revealing countless cracks.

Finally, the world before my eyes suddenly shattered and distorted, and when my vision cleared again, I was back in the room where I had been hiding.

The viper's carcass was still lying on the bed.

Blood, still warm.

"Phew~ I survived..."

The moment she was separated from the mirror space, Ling Shuang collapsed.

She is still somewhat dazed and doesn't know how she survives.

Mirror Demon.

Mirror reflection can almost completely counter the Strange Walker, who mainly uses long-range firearms.

The idea of ​​a mirror image that completely replicates everything about the opponent is unheard of.

This opponent, who could absolutely make anyone feel despair and certain death, actually made me feel a little... relaxed after this ordeal?
Of course it's easy.

After all, I slacked off the whole way.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but secretly glance at the biggest contributor to this incident.

If it weren't for Xia Qing, she was certain that this time she would have been doomed, and even the strongest person in the bureau might not have been able to help.

The Mirror Demon's abilities are truly terrifying and unique.

No wonder there has been so little information about the Mirror Yokai Stories in the past.

"Master, I'll take Nannan to the hospital first. I'll definitely wire you the promised gift as soon as possible. The cash you requested is in my bedroom upstairs, my dad..."

Zhang Hai hurried over, carrying his daughter, and expressed his gratitude.

"Go quickly, no rush. Grandpa Zhang can go for a check-up too."

Xia Qing raised her hand to stop him, signaling him to go to the hospital immediately.

He then ignored Zhang Hai and walked directly to the center of the hall, where he found a handful of ashes in the same spot as in the mirror space.

After rummaging through them, I found another Nightmare Origin Crystal similar to the one from last time.

Xia Qing put the item away for the time being and didn't rush to use it.

The Nightmare Artifact was merely icing on the cake for him; his main strength lay in his martial arts.

There's no need to look at the Money Dart Technique anymore; with 300,000, an amount he himself hadn't anticipated, advancing to the next level is inevitable.

But they definitely won't acknowledge it until the money is fully in your account. However, there had been some activity regarding Tai Chi earlier.

"I am deeply impressed by your Tai Chi Chuan. Your fighting style fully demonstrates the demeanor of a master, which has revitalized the reputation of martial arts. You are also highly respected for your ability to subdue demons and monsters. I am very satisfied and feel a sense of communion with the heavens and the earth, as if I have gained some enlightenment."

Xia Qing brought up the previous prompt message again and glanced at the attribute panel.

Since I had just reached the enlightenment of Embracing the Primordial Unity, my upgrade progress had already been reset to zero. Therefore, I was unable to upgrade again this time, but my progress increased by 60%.

However, Xia Qing could clearly sense that the Tai Chi Chuan technique had undergone some special changes.

At the very moment the Mirror Demon died, a strange feeling arose.

"As mentioned before with the Money Dart Technique, he only undergoes a certain change when the Bewitching One is killed, so it seems there is indeed a connection."

Xia Qing immediately understood and waved to Ling Shuang, who had also come over earlier: "Come on, give me a punch."

"you sure?"

Ling Shuang was suspicious.

"Come on, hit me."

Xia Qing stood tall and waved again.

"Row."

Seeing his serious expression, Ling Shuang didn't waste any words and punched him in the stomach.

They are, after all, officially trained military personnel, so they certainly don't lack basic physical fitness and combat skills.

One punch from him and an ordinary person would be knocked down on the spot.

However, the punch landed on Xia Qing.

But it made her feel as if she had hit a ball of cotton, without feeling any force at all.

"okay."

Raising her hand to signal a halt, Xia Qing carefully savored the sensation she had just experienced.

Unlike the Money Dart Technique, which changes the outcome of killing the bewitched and then spending a fortune.

The changes in Tai Chi Chuan are not reflected in the concept of "holding the original essence and guarding the oneness," but rather seem to be reflected in the form of the fist itself.

Therefore, he felt it more clearly.

This effect could be described as a cotton-like texture.

A technique that has become ingrained in our instincts, possessing exceptional ability to deflect and transfer force.

The blunt force and impact that you receive can be instinctively deflected.

This is an extremely useful skill.

After all, any physical attack will inevitably suffer impact force, and the forces of the two sides in a battle are also mutual. When encountering a strong impact, it is easy to damage the fragile organs.

However, cotton can dissipate a large portion of the force.

Even better, if one could wear a suit of heavy armor that could defend against sharp weapons while dispersing the power of a single-point attack...

Armor can only protect against sharp weapons but cannot withstand blunt weapons and impacts, while cotton can absorb impacts but is not very effective against sharp weapons.

Combining the two, and even dispersing the force according to the pressure formula, will inevitably achieve an effect greater than the sum of its parts.

At that time, he will be an unparalleled heavy tank in terms of physical defense!

Hmm, no, or it should be called heavy cavalry.

Xia Qing glanced at the Overlord Halberd Technique again...

"Your [Overlord Halberd Technique] was just about to engage in fierce battle, ready to die for your lord, but as soon as you started, you realized that the enemy was just a half-baked amateur, and you lost interest."

He was already somewhat dissatisfied with the Mirror Demon, and suddenly became even more annoyed.

"Utterly useless, can't even imitate the strength."

Killing that mirror demon felt like Xia Qing had punched cotton; this useless thing couldn't even fulfill the requirements of the Overlord Halberd Technique for a fierce battle.

However, looking at the prompts for the Overlord Halberd Technique, he also felt a bit of a headache.

The requirements of the Overlord Halberd Technique always seem simple and unpretentious, but in fact, they all involve a pursuit of 'quality'.

Just like that halberd, it's obviously not enough to just fool it with ordinary methods.

The Mirror Demon is a dud; it clearly doesn't meet the requirements for a fierce battle, let alone conquering new territories or fighting on the battlefield.

But this is modern society.

Where can I find an enemy general who meets the requirements?
