A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

A figure stepped out from inside the mirror.

It was still Zhou An, but this Zhou An's eyes were even more indifferent.

The style of the clothes was exactly the same, but the color had changed to black.

He exuded a gloomy aura.

"A third-tier strange entity? No, it's fourth-tier?" Zhou An sensed the other party's aura, but he was not quite sure.

His rank is simply too low to make a specific judgment.

In the next instant, the mirror image split into three figures.

Zhou An's pupils contracted slightly upon seeing this scene.

The Tiger Talisman's clone—has the power of the talisman also been replicated?

Zhou An dared not be presumptuous and immediately separated the benevolent and malevolent aspects of his mind.

"Wow, this is going to be interesting. The other side can even create a clone and use the power of the Tiger Talisman." The evil spirit exclaimed as soon as it appeared.

"Do you think that mirror image can still unleash the power of the Dragon Talisman and the Horse Talisman?" the malevolent entity asked.

“Their aura has weakened. They were probably fourth-tier before, but now the separated individuals have become third-tier,” the benevolent being noticed and quickly said.

“Okay.” Zhou An nodded: “Be careful, the power of the copied talismans may not be complete, but it won’t be weak.”

"Don't worry, what's there to be afraid of? Does the genuine product have to be afraid of the pirated version?" The evil entity was not afraid at all, but was instead extremely excited.

In the next instant, black light gathered at the three mirrored palms.

"It's a dragon talisman, but it's condensed ghost energy. Let's spread out and kill them!" The evil entity roared and quickly moved to the side.

The three quickly separated.

The next moment, black and red fireballs exploded in mid-air.

Black light and crimson glow intertwined, as if a grand banquet were being held here.

"You trip and fall!"

"Flesh and blood sacrifice!"

"recover!"

"You trip and fall!"

"Flesh and blood sacrifice!"

"recover!"

The shouts of six people echoed throughout the mirrored carriage.

Suddenly, a strange scene unfolded.

Six people fell down at the same time, got up, and then fell down again.

Moreover, during the fall, their flesh and blood constantly disappeared and then regenerated.

Each time they fall, their strength increases dramatically, until it accumulates to a tenfold increase before stopping.

But the wrestling was completely unstoppable; it was a rule-based skill, 100% accurate.

They could only use the dragon talisman to attack their opponent when they fell down.

In the blink of an eye, ten minutes had passed.

The battle between the two sides remained exactly the same as before.

No one slacked off because of physical exertion, nor did anyone become sluggish due to exhaustion.

Because there is no concept of consumption.

Suddenly, Zhou An's gaze swept across the circular mirror in the distance, and he realized something.

"It's cracked! The round mirror has a crack!" Zhou An shouted suddenly.

During the ten-minute battle, Zhou An attempted to attack the circular mirror, but the attacks were deflected and did not cause any damage.

But now he glimpsed a crack.

This means that the power of the mirror image is connected to the circular mirror surface, consuming its power; the power of the mirror image Zhou An is not unlimited.

"Alright, let's increase our attack frequency and exhaust his power!" the malevolent entity roared, its eyes still gleaming with excitement.

Zhou An and the benevolent entity didn't say anything more, but instead launched an even more frenzied attack.

Another ten minutes passed.

The cracks on the round mirror were larger and covered two-thirds of the mirror surface.

At that very moment, a notification sound appeared in Zhou An's mind.

[Successfully defeated the mirror boss, fulfilling the level completion requirements. Rewards accumulated to 100,000. Continue playing, or return to the starting point?]

The next instant, Zhou An landed on the ground without falling again.

The three mirror images of Zhou An transformed into three streaks of black light and disappeared into the circular mirror surface.

At that very moment, the entire mirrored carriage erupted in a series of crackling sounds.

It shattered; both the top and the floor glass were broken, riddled with cracks.

He won, he won, he wore down Zhou An, the mirror image.

It also caused immeasurable damage to the mirrored carriage.

However, Zhou An had to admire this mirrored carriage, which could even replicate the power of talismans.

But in the end, Zhou An won.

"This is really tiring, old man. The rest is yours. Take us back now," the evil entity said casually.

Chapter 67, Carriage 4: The Bizarre Restriction

"Thank you for your hard work." Zhou An nodded slightly, then absorbed the two clones into his body.

“Continue,” Zhou An said, looking at the cracked circular mirror.

Immediately afterwards, the circular mirror surface transformed into ripples, eventually forming a passage.

Zhou An understood that this was the waiting area for the next level.

He immediately stepped inside.

It was the same corridor, but surprisingly, this time it looked extremely luxurious.

Instead of dim lighting, there was a bright glow.

At this moment, at the end of the corridor, there were only twenty strange figures.

Each one exuded a terrifying aura, and they were all at least fourth-order or higher.

When Zhou An came out, all the strange creatures were somewhat surprised.

"Human, I must say you have a lot of guts."

"You cleared the third level and instead of returning, you keep trying to pass it. You're really courting death, but not in this way."

"It seems we can have a treat before we even compete in the fourth round."

A group of eerie beings seemed to be chatting casually, yet they had already decided Zhou An's fate.

"Utter rubbish." Zhou An glanced at everyone and spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, all the strange creatures were stunned for a moment, and then one of them, whose body was emanating black energy, looked at Zhou An with a cold smile.

“Interesting. I’ve seen quite a few humans. I’ve seen the bold ones and the ones who aren’t afraid of us.”

"But when I broke their legs and tore off their arms, they all kowtowed and begged for mercy like dogs. What about you?" The eerie creature wasn't angry; it just looked at Zhou An with a cold smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhou An grinned and said, "It seems we'll all be together for the fourth trial. Let's see if you're a dog, or if you're all dogs."

Zhou An had already confirmed the power of his dragon talisman.

If a fourth-tier monster can kill with a single blow, then it must be at least equivalent to a fifth-tier monster.

To unleash power beyond the fifth rank, Zhou An's strength needs to be improved.

At the fifth rank, in these strange places, it seems one should be able to kill indiscriminately.

"Hahaha..." A strange laugh suddenly broke out.

The sound was so loud that Zhou An's ears were ringing.

Immediately afterwards, the group of eerie creatures seemed to be infected and all started laughing.

They weren't angry; they looked at Zhou An as if he were an idiot.

Just then, the passageway leading to carriage number 4 opened.

……

"Waaah—"

A loud whistle rang out, startling Zhou An awake.

He looked around and found himself in a lively carriage.

The carriage is of normal size, with several rows of seats on each side.

About half of the seats were occupied: children, the elderly, young couples, and various belongings piled up at their feet.

The air was filled with the smells of sweat, food, cigarettes, and engine oil.

"Clang—clang—" A dull 'clang' sound came from the bottom of the carriage.

This carriage is just an ordinary carriage, nothing special.

In other words, all the passengers' clothes were old-fashioned linen clothes from the Republican era.

"What's going on?" Zhou An frowned.

Beside Zhou An were those twenty strange figures.

They were currently inside the carriage, with Zhou An still standing inside his seat. Strangely, they were clearly still in another dimension.
