I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

"Trying to trap me?"

After realizing that the Ancient One was deliberately luring him, Thunder did not chase after her. Instead, he shot through the roof with a 'boom' and flew into the sky!

Before the mirror space could even envelop him, he had already appeared ten thousand meters in the air, out of the spell's range.

Then, he looked down at the Kamar-Taj Temple perched atop the snow-capped mountain.

His eyes shot out a burst of golden light!

Chapter 169 Battle of Wits

Above Kamar-Taj Temple,

Two golden beams of light descended from the sky!

All the arcane mages rushed out at the same time!

"Activate the shield!"

The leader, a slightly overweight man with black hair and black eyes, shouted loudly, his hands rapidly forming hand seals before pushing upwards above his head.

A massive golden rune shield instantly unfolded!

The other mages did the same thing, and in an instant, the entire Kamar-Taj temple was covered by a golden halo!

boom! !

The golden beam struck the shield, and the resulting shockwave caused the ground beneath everyone's feet to tremble.

Click! !

The shield cracked in less than a second, and the expressions of the hundreds of arcane mages all changed in shock.

"Hold on!!"

The fat mage in the lead gritted his teeth and desperately activated his shield, causing the ground beneath his feet to crack inch by inch!

However, the power of the golden beam was beyond his imagination, and the shield was broken through in an instant!

Just as the beam of light was about to descend upon everyone's heads...

The sound of shattering glass followed.

A mirror-symmetrical phantom appeared out of thin air above everyone's heads, swallowing up all the beams of light!

Only then can the people be spared from suffering.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and turned their gaze to the figure in the sky above the temple.

Holding magical fans in her hands and standing on a golden barrier, Gu Yi stood calmly and composed, her steady demeanor putting everyone at ease.

At this moment, the mirrored phantom was rising higher and higher with her movements, encompassing the entire sky and earth.

She turned to look at the Mage King and the other arcane mages below, and said in a deep voice:

"You just need to protect the temple; there's no need for you to interfere."

After saying that, she flew into the sky and shot towards Leiming, who stood above the clouds.

Midway through, she waved her folding fan and flung two golden light blades that shone with sharp light at Lei Ming!

call out! !

Two blades of light grew longer in the wind! In the blink of an eye, they were upon Lei Ming, but he showed no sign of dodging; instead, he raised his arm.

Clang!

With a wave of his hand, the light blade shattered into pieces instantly!

Seeing this, Gu Yi waved her folding fan again, and countless golden chains made of magic appeared out of thin air around Lei Ming.

They darted around Leiming like snakes, instantly forming a giant cage that imprisoned him inside.

At this moment, Gu Yi gracefully flicked her folding fan, then clasped her hands together!

Snapped!

The iron cage tightened abruptly, binding and restraining the thunderous roar within.

But he didn't struggle; he simply stared coldly at the Ancient One who had flown to his side and said in a deep voice:

Have you thought this through?

"Just answering a question... and you're willing to become my enemy?"

Gu Yi shook her head, her expression indifferent.

"I did not intend to be your enemy, it's just that..."

You don't belong to this universe, nor should you exist in this world.

Your power is too great; whether you admit it or not, you will bring immense disaster to this universe.

"ridiculous!"

Lei Ming's face showed a mocking expression, "You just called me a hero..."

What? Are you kidding me?

"Even heroes can fall into demonic ways."

Gu Yi remained calm and composed, saying:

"What has happened, or what will happen, is already predetermined; no one can avoid it..."

the same as you. "

As he spoke, the chains binding Lei Ming tightened again, sparks flying as the chains rubbed against each other.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have been crushed into mincemeat long ago.

But for Lei Ming...

They couldn't even leave a trace on his skin.

He clenched his fists, gradually exerting force throughout his body, and said to the Ancient One:

"I've heard enough of this kind of mystical talk..."

I know what I'm doing; I don't need anyone to tell me what I should or shouldn't do!

You're no exception!

boom! !

The iron lock suddenly shattered! Gu Yi quickly parried and retreated!

After regaining his footing, he looked closely and saw that Lei Ming's body was rapidly expanding! In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a crimson dragon comparable to a mountain!

"Trying to trap me?! Then show me your true skills!"

The thunder, transformed into a colossal dragon, roared like a great bell, resounding through the heavens. The next second...

It opened its blood-red maw, and a scorching pillar of flame, tens of meters in diameter, gushed out!

Gu Yi's expression was solemn. At the same time, he unfolded the folding fan in his hand, which turned into a huge golden barrier to protect his body!

boom! ! !

The overwhelming flames instantly engulfed the Ancient One, and the giant dragon that Thunder had transformed into flapped its wings, causing the pillar of fire to surge even more fiercely!

The temple below,

All the mages lined up around the temple, gazing up at the giant dragon in the mirrored world above.

They all looked horrified.

The monk Wang couldn't help but wipe his forehead, realizing he was already drenched in sweat.

At the same time, I could feel the temperature around me gradually rising.

"How is this possible..."

Its flames can even affect reality in the mirror world!

This phenomenon made him and all the other monks swallow hard.

In the sky, a mirrored world.

Even though she was engulfed in flames, the Ancient One didn't just sit and wait to die. While maintaining her shield, she formed a hand seal with one hand.

In an instant, hundreds of identical Ancient Ones flew out of the sea of ​​fire and surrounded the giant dragon!

They formed groups of three, positioned themselves at every angle above, below, left, and right of the dragon, and worked together to create a circular barrier that advanced towards the dragon!

Its flames were also blocked by the barriers, and in just a few breaths, the dragon was enveloped by layer upon layer of golden barriers.

From the outside, it looks like a dragon figurine displayed in a shop window, trapped inside a golden crystal ball.

"Roar!!"

The dragon inside the crystal ball roared, and the powerful sound waves shook the entire mirror space!

Even the mages inside the temple couldn't help but cover their ears tightly.
