The Mysterious Dungeon: A Survival Guide to the Twelve Talismans

The Onmyoji walking at the very front had an extremely strange talisman pasted on his forehead, obscuring his face.

His hands were forming strange hand seals, and his entire body was surrounded by a faint blackish-purple aura.

It seems to walk very slowly, but with each step, its body moves a certain distance.

Before long, the five Yin-Yang Masters appeared in front of the train.

The Yin-Yang Master looked at Zhou An and the other two with a cold expression, without saying a word.

The leader simply raised his hand and uttered a few obscure Japanese incantations.

The next instant, a black aura flicked from the opponent's fingertip and struck Zhou An's face.

Seeing this, Zhou An made no move, while the evil entity stepped forward and threw a punch at the black aura.

Strangely, the black aura directly entered the body of the evil entity.

Then, the right arm of the evil entity began to turn black and frost over at a visible speed.

“Foolish, daring to take my attack with your fists,” the leader said with a sneer.

However, the next moment, a flash of white light appeared on the right arm of the evil entity, and the abnormal state was directly removed.

"It's ghostly energy, very weak, probably equivalent to the second level," the evil entity said after sensing it.

"Only level two? Isn't this hell too easy?" The benevolent entity tilted its head, somewhat puzzled.

"You forgot, our power is not limited, so it is naturally a simple copy."

"If we were all restricted in our power, would you absolutely have a chance of winning against five second-tier Onmyoji?"

“Even if we add those twenty oddities and involve firearms,” Zhou An said calmly.

"That's right, Lao Ben, then I'll take action and wipe them out." The evil entity was eager to try.

"No rush. I'm very curious about Onmyoji. I want to see what they do."

"After we capture them alive, we need to ask if there are any other people behind them. Otherwise, if we kill them, even more powerful ones will come, and we'll be caught off guard."

"Once we get the information, we'll just go and kill them all," Zhou An said with a faint smile.

Both the evil and benevolent thought entities nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

"The Chinese practitioners are indeed quite skilled, but when they face us Yin-Yang Masters, they will only be slaughtered."

The leader made another move.

Upon seeing this, the four Yin-Yang Masters behind him immediately took action.

Their methods were all different; some of them formed hand seals and chanted incantations, directly summoning several pale-faced paper figures.

The paper figure, covered in eerie black runes, lunged directly at Zhou An and his companions.

An Onmyoji bit his fingertip and smeared the blood directly onto a paper sword. He then stepped forward and attacked, following behind the paper figure.

The remaining two Onmyoji faced each other, their bloodstained hands grabbing each other's palms before slamming them together.

The two of them strangely merged together and then transformed into a ghost that was ten feet tall.

Zhou An stared at the chaotic Yin-Yang Masters below with a cold gaze, his expression unchanged.

The malevolent and benevolent entities, on the other hand, raise their right hands, with a ping-pong ball-sized energy gathering in their palms.

They need to control their power; they can't kill them.

The next moment, several muffled booming sounds rang out.

The paper figures offered no resistance whatsoever; they were instantly pierced by the fireballs and then burned to ashes.

Moreover, it burns extremely quickly, disappearing into thin air in the blink of an eye.

Chapter 71 The Permission to Drive the Survival Train?

Upon seeing this, the lead Yin-Yang Master's pupils contracted slightly.

He hadn't expected Zhou An and his group to be so ruthless.

Their prized methods were easily thwarted.

"They are powerful. Let us join forces and go all out to summon our shikigami." The leading Onmyoji suddenly stepped back a distance and took out a dark purple talisman.

Seeing this, the other four people did not hesitate and immediately stepped back a distance.

"Some clowns, break their legs first." As soon as the evil entity finished speaking, several weakened fireballs shot out.

Upon seeing this, the Yin-Yang Master opposite them unleashed a black aura that shielded them from the fiery explosion.

However, this layer of protection is completely ineffective against the fireball.

The fireball easily shattered the shield and then landed precisely on the thighs of the Onmyoji.

"Ah~~~!"

The Onmyoji immediately cried out in pain, then collapsed to the ground.

Their legs melted away.

"Baka yarou, I... offer... my soul, a hundred demons parade in the night!"

The lead Onmyoji was in so much pain that he could only speak intermittently.

But when those last four words were uttered, the once clear sky suddenly changed.

The sky darkened instantly, and strange sounds filled the howling wind.

"No...no..." An Onmyoji seemed to sense something and roared in terror.

"Senior Brother Tianyi, why...why do you offer our souls as a sacrifice..." Another Yin-Yang Master looked at the leader with a face full of despair.

Tianyi didn't say anything, but looked at Zhou An and the other two with resentful eyes.

Then, an invisible force appeared in the void.

This power directly extracted a phantom shadow from the bodies of these five Onmyoji.

These are not shadows, but their souls.

"A parade of a hundred demons? This is interesting." Zhou An looked at the scene with a smile on his face.

The five people's breaths vanished at that moment.

Then, a huge door appeared in the void, with a very Japanese style.

When this door opens, a street is revealed.

A street with a completely Japanese style.

The room was brightly lit and crowded with people.

No, not human heads, but all sorts of demons and monsters.

The moment the door opened, countless demons and monsters looked in their direction.

Then they let out an excited growl and charged outwards.

Zhou An glanced at them and found many that looked somewhat familiar, such as the Flying Man, the Ox Demon, the Nekomata, the Kappa, the Umbrella Demon, and so on.

The variety is countless; it truly is a parade of a hundred ghosts.

"Now we have a target, brothers, go all out and let these demons and monsters see the power of the Dragon Talisman."

Zhou An showed no fear at all upon seeing so many demons and monsters; on the contrary, he became excited.

"I've been waiting for this for a long time."

"It seems like we've never really gone all out before, have we?"

Both the evil thought body and the benevolent thought body are eager to try.

In the next instant, a large number of fireballs covered the entire sky.

The already dim sky was now obscured by crimson.

Countless demons and monsters were melted by the fireballs before they could even emerge.

I don't know how much time passed, but the world became quiet, and everything calmed down.

The sky returned to its original state, and the blazing sun continued to shine down.

The gate to the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons has disappeared.

The ground was littered with the remains of demons and monsters, or charred remnants of things that had been melted.

The air was filled with a strong stench and a burning smell, causing Zhou An and the other two to cover their noses.

“They’re all dead, so we should have won, right?” the benevolent entity said.

As soon as the Good Intention Body finished speaking, Zhou An heard a notification sound.

[Successfully defeated the Japanese Onmyoji, successfully protected the gold from being stolen, and successfully eliminated 18 Japanese bandits. Train passenger mortality rate: 0%]

[Criteria for clearance No. 4 have been met]

The next moment, a passage appeared out of thin air in front of them.

Upon seeing this, Zhou An smiled.

He then recalled his clone and strode into the passage.

This time, the corridor appeared rather ordinary.

Moreover, Zhou An was the only one in the waiting area, because the other contestants had all been eliminated by Zhou An in carriage number four.

Immediately, the passage to carriage number five opened directly, without any waiting time.

Zhou An quickened his pace and strode into carriage number five.

Upon entering, Zhou An found himself standing on a arena approximately 100 meters in size.

Before Zhou An could get a clear look at his surroundings, another notification sound rang in his ears.

[Congratulations on successfully standing on the stage in carriage five to the very end! You have become the ultimate winner of this survival train game!]

[Your bonus has accumulated to one million yuan. You can return it with a special reward, or you can take the final test. If you pass the test, you will be granted the right to drive the Survival Train.]

"Huh? The final test?" Zhou An was stunned for a moment, then a glint flashed in his eyes.

Upon completion, you will gain permission to drive the Survival Train, which is equivalent to becoming the driver, conductor, or controller of the Survival Train.

"But just like those strange rumors said, I was the only one left, and I cleared the level immediately upon entering."

Zhou An began to think rapidly.

He knew so little about the survival train, only a tiny bit from those strange mouths.

Zhou An sensed the power of the Dragon Talisman, Horse Talisman, and Tiger Talisman within his body, and then chose to accept the test.

The right to drive the survival train was very attractive to Zhou An.

[Are you sure you want to proceed to the final test? Is the risk extremely high?]

“Confirmed,” Zhou An replied directly.

Immediately after Zhou An confirmed it, he lost consciousness.

When Zhou An regained consciousness, he was already in a driver's seat.

This is the train's driver's cab; it looks rather rudimentary and dilapidated.

Most importantly, outside the window, there is water, black water.

The train driver's cab where he was located was submerged at the bottom of the water.

Although the window was broken, it had a layer of fluorescence that kept the black water out.

The final test begins.

【Mission 1】: Please go to the outside of the train and remove the parasites. The black water is extremely corrosive, so please wear protective clothing.

The notification sound rang in his ear, and Zhou An's gaze fell on the protective suit on the chair next to him.

Although it's called a protective suit, it looks no different from a diving suit, and it also has an oxygen tank on the back.

"Could this be the actual location of the survival train?" This thought suddenly popped into Zhou An's mind.

Believe it or not, there's a real possibility, and the probability is quite high.
