Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 895 - 801: Kill Me_2

Sure enough, when it was time for breakfast, everyone gathered around the table to welcome the temporary guest, Tang Qin, who was stunned looking at the two plates of ghost food specially prepared for her!

"It smells so good!"

She had her own power in Yin Mountain, and many believers in the Human World, so ghost food, which ordinary ghosts in the town could eat, was naturally not rare.

But none of the ghost food she had seen in her life compared to the two dishes made by Mr. Jiang.

Just smelling it felt like the rich Yin Fiend Qi was completely absorbed, like rain after a long drought, she felt an unprecedented strong affection for this food!

As she placed the dish in her mouth, the rich and fresh juices accompanied by immense energy exploded between her lips and teeth, making her involuntarily feel a sense of happiness.

The more she ate, the more she wanted, while devouring the food, Tang Qin's heart was filled with both joy and worry.

The former naturally stemmed from her good fortune of staying temporarily at Mr. Jiang's little courtyard, to experience the happiness of residing here firsthand.

The latter, well, she wanted a legitimate status like Hu Zhile to stay here!

But what advantage did she have?

Her former glory was all due to the network she built over years in Yin Mountain, now all wiped out by Fengdu, all efforts destroyed overnight, what could she use to prove her worth?

Moreover, her lifespan was limited, if she couldn't find a chance to ascend the realm, she feared she would die within a few years, becoming worthless to Mr. Jiang.

"If only I could ascend the realm as quickly as Zhile..." Tang Qin sighed inwardly, her meal stirring her emotions but helplessly.

After breakfast, Jiang Yuan invited Yan Xuan to explore the World Tree branch's replica again.

"Master, should we fight our way up there?"

Carrying lotus on its shell, it pointed at the gigantic object above with its paw and said worriedly, "The filth falling down is already dreadful, it's unimaginable how dangerous it must be up there!"

Jiang Yuan stood under the Second Layer's protective shield looking up, chuckled at the words, "Afraid already? We must find a way to deal with the danger, lest it keeps polluting."

Above the massive object blocking most light, black clouds rolled, more filth sporadically fell down, the varied size lands eagerly received it like a reward.

"Let's go, the falling is quite cyclic, we need to clear the Third Layer's lands before it drops again, otherwise it'll be troublesome if it drops midway." He recalled the last experience with lingering fear.

He advised Yan Xuan upon entry to act immediately without hesitation!

As long as they were in combat mode, the system would halt time, minimizing the risk of filth confusing their minds.

Ascending step by step, just entering the rolling black fog of the Third Layer, Jiang Yuan heard a familiar voice, "Bro! Let's go for skewers tonight!"

Focusing, "Chuci" stood below, left hand holding a phone, right hand swirling a car key on pinky, grinning at him, "What are you distracted for? I brought Uncle and Aunt over!"

His parents indeed sat in the pavilion nearby, seeing him rise they smiled, "You silly, why not make a sound?"

"Boom!"

Suddenly a loud noise in the ears, the scene before him began to distort.

Despite having fortified his willpower, it didn't work, he almost got deceived!

His neck tingled, turning back he saw Yan Xuan had already transformed into a massive demon beast, crying and sweeping with its tail, "I'm sorry! Really sorry! But I can't disobey master!"

Master forbids me from speaking dialect, so I won't!

Master tells me who to hit, I hit them!

Master says I'm a future divine beast, whether I believe or not I must believe!

Master instructs me to kill immediately upon entry, I'm sorry! I don't want to, but can't defy master's orders!

If I don't listen, he'll beat me with a stick! That really hurts… Woo woo woo… Sorry!

It surely fell for the illusion realm too but still followed orders, crying didn't hinder its performance.

Jiang Yuan: ...

Although it was obedient, it's fearful of punishment?

Yan Xuan obeyed demon beast cultivation laws, only awakening its own power without learning cultivation techniques and tactics. Its fighting style was direct and rough, relying on its massive size and strong physique, charging blindly!

Clearly, it saw the illusion realm with close friends, leading it to instinctively use brute force, and in such a manner, it hit the mark.

The mercury-like writhing monsters were smashed to pieces, their reflected images grew more distorted and fragmented.

Jiang Yuan suddenly realized this wasn't an illusion, but a psychological projection, no wonder willpower wasn't effective!

Yet without Yan Xuan's accidental strike nullifying these bizarre things, how would he break the dilemma?

Master's cooking is delicious, his brewed liquor tasty, aside from the pain, he's really kind to me, so I must obey…

As Yan Xuan damaged the "mirrors", its projections grew increasingly strange, "No, weren't you all dead? Damn those immortals! Daring to fool me!"

It abruptly cleared up, realizing it was tricked and grew angrier, snorting combustively.

But the mercury-like things, when broken, dropped as clusters, writhing to regather, its attacks seemingly didn't inflict fatal damage on them.

"Boom!"

Stomping heavily, shatterered into more fragmented silver beads rolling, Jiang Yuan tossed an Ice Flame along.

"Sizzle～"

The pale blue flame burnt the beads with an ear-piercing wail, evaporating into wisps of smoke vanishing.

[Silver Mirror Gem +1]

"Eh? Isn't this the 'Demon Mirror' upgrade main material for City Lord Yuan?" He looked at the spoils, eyes glowing instantly!

The side quest still hanging tasks him upgrading her severely damaged mirror, before he never knew where to find materials, City Lord Yuan hadn't heard of Silver Mirror Gem, thus the upgrade plan was temporarily halted, unexpectedly encountered in the replica.

"Yan Xuan, well done!" Jiang Yuan burned away ecstatically, cheering its efforts, "See those mirror-like things? They reflect scenes or fragments deep within your heart, all fake, eliminate them!"

"I knew something was wrong, master, watch me!" With encouragement, the straightforward Yan Xuan transformed, its size expanded again, swiping a massive paw, smashing those mercury maze-like monsters into clusters.

Its thick and long tail swung down, with a dull explosion "boom", the ground trembled slightly.

The assaulted mercury monster fractured from the bottom, shattered in no time.

"Kill me, please!"

"Quick! Hurry up, unable to control anymore!"

"So painful, can't live, can't die, too painful..."

......

Voices murmured from all directions, pleading lamentations of all ages meshed together, chilling one's spine.

"Are you...humans?" Jiang Yuan saw several mercury clusters merging nearby, slowly "climbing" from the ground.

First a glossy human head shape appeared, barely showing recessed eye sockets, high nose bridge and lips, as it struggled up, neck, body, arms gradually coalesced to reveal.

Wherever large mercury clusters gathered, varied human figures formed in pained struggle, from their open mouths issued earnest pleas.

"We used to be human, now long not, we are monsters! Despicable monsters!"

"Quickly act! Hurry please, kill me!"

The first shape becoming human wailed, body rapidly expanded, stretched into a mirror-like rectangle rising, showing a slightly twisted grandma figure.

In the "mirror," she smiled benevolently beckoning, "Xiao Yuan, come to grandma!"

"It indeed reflects inner thoughts, once near would be swallowed." Jiang Yuan confirmed his speculation, no illusion technique existed here, only these monsters' innate ability devoured outsiders.

The method seemed simple, yet without Yan Xuan's sincere monster fighting service, the solution might elude him for a while.

"Quickly kill me! Stop my suffering! Good people, begging you wholeheartedly!" Another forming humanoid desperately pleaded, "Death would be liberation.

If not annihilated, once misled you too will be devoured, be among us unable to die! Act quickly!"
