The world is turned upside down, and the sun and the moon are hanging upside down. This sentence perfectly summarizes everything in the mirror world. As for the statement of "parity non-conservation", it was just a concept that Tao Tie suddenly thought of and was not appropriate. The reason why I think of this concept is actually because of the incoordination and distortion of space-time at the two ends of the "mirror". It's like the internet speed is delayed. Tao Tie made timely adjustments, switched perspectives, and made adaptive changes to the inconsistency between time and space, so he was no longer affected by it. The mirror that contained Qiao Mao's true spirit floated upward from the mirror water well and flew towards the sky above the mirror Tianshui City. Through the spirit attached to the mirror, Tao Tie discovered that there were no living people in the mirror-like Tianshui City, but there were dead souls. A small number of ghosts, about two thousand in number, ran around the city in a daze. A large number of the dead souls, numbering nearly 20,000, were fleeing outside the city like headless flies, sometimes heading east, sometimes heading west, without any specific destination.
"These are the people who died in the evening." Tao Tie made this judgment naturally, but then he became confused. "Why aren't these dead souls in the city taken away by the Qingshui River Temple or the ancestral temples of the various families?" This doubt was soon resolved. The Qingshuihebo Temple outside the mirror image Tianshui City has its doors closed, just like the temples outside the real Tianshui City. The ancestral halls of the various families that offered up their ancestors' spirits, including the big ones like the Yun, Qiao, and Li, and the small ones like the Ding, Hu, Mei, Gan, etc., were also tightly closed. Even if these dead souls want to find a place to go, there is no place that can accept them. The reason for this situation is that the power of large and small clan temples have joined together to put pressure on the Qingshuihebo Temple. The two sides are in a balance of power and neither can do anything to the other. Therefore, they all closed and locked the door and ignored the outside world. It's really a zero-sum game. "but……" Tao Tie pondered, "The power of the High Priest Qingshuihebo is not as strong as the rumors I heard a few days ago. He is even too weak. Could it be that Qingshui Longjun, who just completed the upgrade but the upgrade is incomplete, took back the power he bestowed? Or..." Another suspicion arose. "Qingshui Longjun has more important enemies to guard against. The high priest dare not use up his power rashly, lest he be unable to effectively resist when the real enemy attacks." Considering the attitude of the Pantheon's envoys and the Pantheon's practices, the probability of this being true is very high. While Tao Tie was thinking, the mirror slowly floated and landed near the Qiao Clan Ancestral Hall. This mirror possessed a very high authority and was able to pass through the tightly closed protective magic circle of the Qiao Clan Ancestral Hall without any hindrance and enter inside. The Qiao Clan Ancestral Hall is a group of buildings, the shape and layout of which are almost the same as those of a temple.
There are mountain gates, front halls, main halls, side halls, and back halls. The main hall is dedicated to the ancestors of the Qiao family, while the front hall, side hall and back hall are dedicated to the human ghosts of the members of the Qiao family who have made great achievements in history. The mirror swayed and floated, and it easily entered the back hall of the ancestral hall as if it were in an empty place. There is a statue of a ghost with a face that is 70% similar to Qiao Mao enshrined here. The right hand is holding a sword, and the left palm is spread forward. It should be holding something, but there is nothing. When the mirror fell into the left palm of the human-ghost statue, there was no sense of incongruity. A halo of light spread out, as if ripples were rippling on the surface of a lake. Qiao Mao's true spirit separated from the mirror, merged into the right hand of the human-ghost statue, and flowed along the arm into the center of the eyebrows. A rustling sound was heard. The eyes of this human-ghost statue, which were originally tightly closed like the Qiao family's ancestor spirit and other human-ghost statues, suddenly opened. "Ugh!" A long sigh was heard, revealing an extreme helplessness. It was the entry of Qiao Mao's true spirit that awakened the spirits of the humans and ghosts enshrined in the statues. "Why bother?" An old voice came from the mouth of the ghost statue. "Grandpa, save me!" Qiao Mao's voice rang out immediately afterwards. "I can't save you." The old voice lamented, "You are dead, and your body has been burned. Without the support of your people, it won't be long before your spirit dissipates." Qiao Mao immediately changed his words: "Grandson, I beg you to avenge me!" The old voice sighed again: "Revenge? Who is your enemy? Qingshui Longjun? The Pantheon messenger? Or the ancestor of my Qiao family who watched you being killed by the Pantheon messenger?" Qiao Mao repeated in a tearful voice: "Grandson, I beg you to avenge me!" "Grandpa also wants to avenge you, but unfortunately I don't have the ability to do so." The old voice lamented as before, revealing helplessness and self-blame. Qiao Mao's voice suddenly changed, becoming extremely resentful and vicious: "Old man, since you are unwilling to avenge me, I will eat you!" As soon as the words fell, a ball of black light burst out from between the brows of the human-ghost statue. Qiao Mao's true spirit launched a surprise attack on the human ghost in the statue, wanting to devour it and occupy the positions of the statue and the human ghost. Unfortunately, ginger only gets spicier with age. The human ghost who immediately took precautions after waking up abnormally easily blocked the attack of Qiao Mao's true spirit, roaring angrily: "Who are you? You are not my grandson! Tell me! Who are you?"
"Grandpa, Grandpa, it hurts! It hurts so much!" "Tell me who you are!" "I am Qiao Mao, Grandpa. Grandpa, Qiao Mao is me!" "Nonsense! You are not my grandson!" The angry roar of the old man Cang's ghost and the cries for mercy of Qiao Mao's true spirit were intertwined. A farce took place in the back hall of the Qiao Clan Ancestral Hall. Tao Tie's consciousness was attached to the back of the mirror, watching silently, with no intention of intervening. This farce-like dispute was too ridiculous. After a while, the old ghost Cang regained his sanity and was no longer angry. He turned around and suppressed Qiao Mao's true spirit. Perhaps the old ghost Cang originally wanted to ask a few questions, so he did not directly let Qiao Mao's true spirit enter a sleeping state. Later, thinking about Qiao Maozhen's "nonsense" and "misbehavior", he simply stopped asking and sealed it up. After doing all this, the statue of the human ghost shook a little, walked down the altar, and walked out of the hall. As the human-ghost statue moved, Tao Tie suddenly discovered that the moon in the mirror world had changed. No, to be exact, it was the moonlight that changed. The moon in the water and the flower in the mirror are all illusions. The mirrored world in the water is an illusion within an illusion. The moonlight in the mirror world actually began to solidify at the moment the ghost statue walked out of the temple door. Although it solidified halfway, this trend dissipated and returned to the illusory state within the illusion. However, the existence of this trend itself is of great significance. The most noteworthy thing is that compared with the moonlight in the real world, Tao Tie felt that the moonlight in the mirror world, which had been half-solidified, was purer. It’s also more… like the moonlight of the Dayong Dynasty! "That's interesting." Tao Tie sighed, and then made a new discovery. As the ghost statue of old man Cang walked out of the temple, the suppression of the ancestral spirits of various families in Mirror Tianshui City on the Mirror Qingshui River Temple was relaxed a little. One thing always affects the whole body. This slight slackness immediately led to very serious consequences. The gate of the mirror image Qingshuihebo Temple was opened! "presumptuous!" The angry roar of the Qiao family's ancestral spirit came from the main hall. An invisible and powerful blow hit the ghost statue of the old man Cang heavily. The crackling sound continued.
The ghost statue of Old Man Cang looked like a clay puppet, with its surface cracked from being hammered and covered with messy lines. At the same time, he flew back to the back hall at a high speed and fell heavily on the altar. The cracks became more severe. However, it was of no use. Apart from venting my anger, I couldn't change anything. The soul of a palm-sized white dragon with only one claw escaped from the open gate of the mirror image Qingshui River Temple and fell into the mirror image Qingshui River in a flash. Tao Tie followed the one-clawed white dragon soul into the Qingshui River and discovered a water palace in it with a four-clawed dragon soul in it. The mirror image and reality correspond to each other. This four-clawed dragon soul is a reflection of the four-clawed Qingshui Dragon King, but it is different. Qingshui Longjun's eyes are cloudy. The eyeballs of the four-clawed dragon soul and the one-clawed dragon soul are both pure. Especially the one-claw dragon soul, the surface of its eyeballs was covered with a layer of bright and clear light, bright and clear. The two dragon souls came from the same source, and when they got close to a certain range, they quickly merged into one. Relying on the layer of clear and bright light that was very similar to the half-condensed moonlight before, the consciousness of the one-clawed dragon soul occupied a more advantageous and dominant position among the five-clawed dragon souls after the fusion. In other words, the actions of the five-clawed dragon soul will be more based on the thinking of the one-clawed dragon soul. Roar! The dragon roar that echoed throughout the Qingshui River Basin in the mirror image came from the water palace. The five-clawed dragon soul soared out of the water with the dragon roar and soared into the sky. A dragon ball as big as a fist, but clear and without any impurities, was spit out and hit the moon hanging high in the sky. The bright moon seems infinitely far away, so it is naturally difficult to hit it. But the dragon ball created a crack in the moonlight. The five-clawed dragon soul that was chasing the dragon ball closely swallowed the dragon ball back and drilled out from the crack. Outside the cracks is reality. Tao Tie let this wisp of spiritual consciousness attach itself back to the mirror, and immediately switched perspective to focus on what was happening in reality. In Tianshui City, power fluctuations erupted from various ancestral halls one after another. The Qiao and Li clansmen were the first to gather. The remaining members of the Yun family were a step slow to react. Then there are those small and medium-sized surname families. However, no matter how fast or slow the reaction was, how big or small the scale was, or how powerful the force was, no one dared to leave the city. Outside Tianshui City, beside the Qingshui River.
The gate of the Qingshuihebo Temple slowly opened. The high priest held the scepter in his left hand and the holy book in his right hand, and walked towards Tianshui City step by step. A powerful aura burst out from the high priest, overwhelming the entire Tianshui City. "Anyone who steps out of the city gate will be killed without mercy." The light voice seemed to descend from the sky and reached the ears of everyone in Tianshui City. There was no trace of murderous intent in these words, but they struck fear into the hearts of most people. By this time, Tao Tie had already escaped underground and was fleeing towards the Qingshui River. Previously, the moonlight in the mirror world condensed and pried open some of the rules of this strange world, which suddenly increased Tao Tie's understanding of this strange world. As a result, more of the sealed power of the Taoist practitioners was released, and they were able to exert a strength above the third level. Of course, this strength is based on a body that has been washed by the water, the origin of all things in the universe, and has become too strong. It is not legal power. As for the "Tao" in "harmony with Tao"... The ways of this world and the ways of the Dayong Dynasty are not entirely the same, and there are even too many inconsistencies. Tao Tie still needs to be carefully identified and selected. Only after ensuring that you will not be "infected" can you then proceed to "realize the Tao", "practice the Tao" and "be in harmony with the Tao". That is the application of the authority of Tao. The high priest, who was busy suppressing the entire Tianshui City, did not notice Tao Tie. Tao Tie successfully escaped into the Qingshui River and soon found the water palace. The battle between the five-clawed dragon soul and the four-clawed clear water dragon king has begun. Logically speaking, the body and the soul are two sides of the same coin, and the Dragon Soul and the Dragon King get along very harmoniously. However, just like those who practice Taoism have to kill the three corpses, the five-clawed dragon soul and the four-clawed dragon king are actually in competition. Moreover, it is a most intense competitive relationship where a winner must be determined. The fighting style of Dragon Soul and Dragon King is quite peculiar. The two did not fight or cast spells, but each controlled the dragon balls and collided with each other in the air. The dragon ball of the dragon soul is only the size of a fist, but transparent and clear. The dragon ball of the Dragon King is as big as two human heads, turbid inside and mottled outside. The contrast between the two is like that between an innocent baby and a bully boy who has grown up crooked. After the collision, the dragon balls of the Dragon Soul were defeated step by step, while the dragon balls of the Dragon King were in complete control.
However, Tao Tie only took one look and knew that without the intervention of external forces, the winner would definitely be the five-clawed dragon soul, rather than the more powerful four-clawed dragon king. the reason is simple. The mottled dragon ball of the Four-clawed Dragon King contains too many impurities. Although its power is strong, it is not durable. That is to say, in the first period of time, you can hit hard. After a brief stalemate, the pure dragon ball of the five-clawed dragon soul will turn over Tiangang. At that time, not only will the pure dragon ball defeat the mottled dragon ball, but the five-clawed dragon soul will also defeat the four-clawed dragon king, devour it and fuse it to form a brand new five-clawed white dragon. The white dragon's consciousness is naturally dominated by the five-clawed dragon soul, and the five-clawed dragon soul's consciousness is dominated by the one-clawed dragon soul. "Jie Jie Jie..." Suddenly, Tao Tie heard a burst of laughter. This laughter does not happen in reality, but comes from the heart. After being washed by the water that is the origin of all things in the universe, his strength has been further unlocked, and his physical magical power [Super Ear] has been sublimated. He has the ability to hear the voices of people whose realm is lower than Tao Tie's within a certain range. Tao Tie looked in the direction of the sound and saw the laughing person wrapped in a shadow. He was the member of the Heroic Spirit Society who had come into contact with Qiao Xuan at night. The Shadow's Voice continues: "Fight! Fight! The more intensely you fight, the easier it will be for me later!" “Hehehe… I can subdue a five-clawed white dragon as my spirit puppet. My strength will definitely be able to leap to the forefront of the Heroic Spirit Gathering.” "The position of deacon is within reach, and even becoming an elder is not impossible." "If I could become an elder and command tens of thousands of spirit puppet masters, how glorious it would be." "A guy like Qiao Xuan is not worthy of my attention at all!" "Fight! Fight! Fight harder!" "Hahahaha!" (End of chapter)
