Xu Fan explained with a pale face: "I know where we are now. This is the Mirror Domain, a unique dark realm belonging to the Mirror Demon."
"Mirror Domain? Mirror Demon?" Wang Fatty clearly didn't read much, as he didn't understand a single word.
"If you don't know about the Mirror Demon, surely you've heard of the Seven Demon Generals?"
At the mention of the Seven Demon Generals, Wang Fatty's entire body trembled with fear: "S-s-seven... Seven Demon Generals!? The ones who served under the Blood Demon two hundred years ago?"
Wang Fatty's voice became piercingly shrill with fear, but neither of them paid attention to that, as the reputation of the Seven Demon Generals was simply too terrifying.
It had reached the level where their name alone could stop children from crying at night.
"That's right, the Seven Demon Generals. Two hundred years ago, the Blood Demon emerged and established the Blood Demon Cult, gathering evil practitioners from across the world. The seven strongest among them were known as the Seven Demon Generals, and this Mirror Demon was one of them, ranking third."
"Impossible! I've heard the legends of the Seven Demon Generals. Although the Blood Demon led them and the Blood Demon Cult in terrorizing the world two hundred years ago, weren't they quickly eliminated by the Demon Suppression Bureau? I heard countless masters died in that battle."
Xu Fan nodded: "According to legend, they did die, but who knows what mysterious methods beings of their level might possess? Besides, this is definitely the Mirror Demon's Mirror Space - all the signs match the descriptions in the Blood Demon Cult Chronicles.
The Blood Demon Cult was the greatest enemy of the Demon Suppression Bureau. Even though they went underground after the Blood Demon's death, their two hundred years of development made them a force not to be underestimated. That's why the Blood Demon Cult Chronicles is required reading for us Demon Eliminators. Weren't you paying attention in class?"
"I fell asleep during that lesson. Oh, never mind whether I listened or not - what's most important now is, where did Master Gu go? What should we do?"
"If I'm not mistaken, Master Gu must have entered the Mirror Space. That's the rule of the Mirror Domain - you absolutely cannot look into mirrors here. Once you do, you'll be sucked into the Mirror Space."
"What's inside the Mirror Space?"
"Yourself."
"Obviously, but what else?"
"Two of yourself."
"What!?" Wang Fatty exclaimed in shock.
"The Mirror Space creates an exact copy of yourself. To escape, you must defeat that copy. However, the copy has exactly the same strength, weapons, and even combat experience as you."
"If everything's identical, how can you win? It would only end in a draw."
Xu Fan shook his head: "You're wrong. It won't be a draw. The copy will always win."
"Why? If we're identical, how come it wins?"
"Because the copy doesn't know fatigue, fear, or emotions. It's absolutely rational, so it won't make mistakes. But humans always do.
Two hundred years ago, the Mirror Demon left a famous saying: 'The only one who can defeat you is yourself.'
That's what his Mirror Space is all about."
.......
Inside the Mirror Space.
Gu Qingfeng looked with interest at Gu Qingfeng.
"So, you're my copy?" Gu Qingfeng calmly observed the man before him who was just as handsome as himself.
After looking into the mirror, he had been pulled into a pure white space, where another version of himself stood opposite him.
Everything was identical, from appearance to height to clothing, even down to the four weapons at his waist.
Although Gu Qingfeng was in the Mirror Space, he could hear everything Wang Fatty and Xu Fan were saying outside, so he understood his situation.
However, the outside world couldn't hear what he was saying.
"So, you're my copy?" the other Gu Qingfeng repeated like a recording.
Gu Qingfeng was taken aback: "Are you copying what I say?"
The copy was taken aback: "Are you copying what I say?"
"Damn, you really are identical?"
"Damn, you really are identical?"
"Though, seeing myself from this angle for the first time, I must say I'm incredibly handsome - perfect from every angle."
"Could you have some shame?"
"Huh!? So you can actually talk?" Gu Qingfeng was surprised.
The copy smiled coldly: "I'm an independent copy of you, of course I can talk."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingfeng became furious: "Then why were you copying me? Were you messing with me?"
By now, Gu Qingfeng was thoroughly angry. He realized this Mirror Demon was truly despicable, full of cruel jokes. Since arriving at Black Water Village, he had been toyed with countless times.
He decided that when he caught the Mirror Demon, he would make it wish it had never been born!
But first, the urgent matter was dealing with this most annoying copy.
However, before taking action, Gu Qingfeng needed to confirm one thing.
"System, can this Mirror Space copy you?" Gu Qingfeng asked mentally.
"This system possesses uniqueness and cannot be copied."
Getting this confirmation, Gu Qingfeng felt confident. What was there to fear? He could let the copy hit him and only grow stronger.
Wait a minute!
If the copy's strength matches mine, when it hits me, I get stronger, but because it's my copy, it also gets stronger, and this keeps repeating, then doesn't that mean...
Realizing this, Gu Qingfeng was suddenly overjoyed - he might have found a way to exploit this system!
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng's gaze toward his copy became burning hot.
The copy felt a chill - it hadn't expected the original to be so narcissistic.
Feeling creeped out by that stare, the copy made the first move, going all out without holding back.
Its face as cold as winter, the copy's right arm bent backward like a spring compressed to its limit.
Boom!
The punch shot forward, the spring-like arm suddenly straightening, carrying tremendous momentum and creating a sonic boom.
Before the fist arrived, its wind pressure hit first.
This punch contained the power of nine bulls and two tigers.
Gu Qingfeng matched it without dodging, throwing an equally powerful punch, unleashing the force of nine bulls and two tigers without reserve.
Bang!
A huge, muffled metallic clash rang out deafeningly.
Both men stepped back three paces, their bodies emitting a faint golden light - the Iron Body technique!
The Iron Body nullified all damage, so both remained unharmed.
Gu Qingfeng was slightly surprised that his opponent also had the Iron Body technique. What about the Wood King Sword?
He suddenly drew the Wood King Sword from his waist and thrust it into the ground, shouting: "Thousand Woods Become a Grove! Ten Thousand Trees Make a Forest! Forest of All Creation!"
As Gu Qingfeng gave the command, the Wood King Sword in his hand vanished, replaced by endless towering trees, thick vines, emerald grass, man-eating flowers...
Tens of thousands of plants and trees burst madly from the ground, growing explosively! In an instant, a forest appeared before them, and it continued to spread, seeming to want to fill the entire Mirror Space.
This was the Wood King Sword's killing move - or more precisely, it was its killing move when it was still a earth-grade spiritual weapon. Now that its grade had dropped, although its power was far from what it once was, it was still barely usable.
Gu Qingfeng had known this move for a long time but never had a chance to use it, as no one had ever forced him to go all out - except himself.
saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
