154: The Phantom of the Mirror, Manipulating the Chess GameThe lightning hand blade, carrying immense power, struck the Law barrier.

”Crack—!”

The ”Domain Prototype” laid out by Tianshu, that Law space he had forcibly ”stripped” from reality, was split in two from top to bottom by the lightning hand blade!

”No... impossible!” Tianshu was greatly alarmed.

How could a guy who had just stepped into this realm break his Law with one strike?

This is unscientific!

Unfortunately, Lin Yuan’s dictionary had no science, only electricity bills.

”Nothing is impossible,” Lin Yuan passed through the shattered Law fragments and appeared before Tianshu, ”As long as the power is enough, even immortals can be smashed!”

”Divine Body Emergency Reconstruction in progress... Remaining power: 59%”

”Warning: ”Thunder God’s Descent” status is expected to last for another 90 seconds!”

The trial card was about to expire!

A sharp glint flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes. He stopped talking nonsense and unleashed his right fist, which had gathered the power of heavenly thunder and earth veins, towards Tianshu’s head!

He had to send this old geezer away before he turned back into an ”energy-saving light bulb”!

However, just as his fist was about to touch Tianshu’s face.

The world spun!

A sense of disorientation seized Lin Yuan’s consciousness.

The world before his eyes violently flipped over.

The asphalt road beneath his feet became the ”sky,” while the night sky filled with thunderclouds above his head became the ”ground” they were treading on.

Streetlights, shop signs, everything was upside down, bizarre and kaleidoscopic.

”Damn it!”

Lin Yuan scooped up the severely injured Su Wanqing from the ground and steadied himself.

A solid sensation came from his feet; it was indeed asphalt, but this world... was inverted.

This aura... Lin Yuan looked towards the inverted world, to the spot where Tianshu had originally stood.

A spatial ripple appeared there, a blurry figure flashed by, dragging something.

It was ”Jing”!

The special mask flashed through Lin Yuan’s mind.

Is this his ability?

”Damn it, is the gap between B-levels greater than between humans and huskies?!” Lin Yuan couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

”Cough cough... Lin Yuan?”

Su Wanqing in his arms weakly opened her eyes, looking at the inverted city before her, momentarily lost in thought.

”Awake?” Lin Yuan looked down at her, ”Don’t sleep, you’ll catch a cold if you do.”

Su Wanqing: ”...”

At a time like this, you’re still telling cold jokes!

She struggled to stand up but was held down by Lin Yuan.

”Don’t move, save your strength.” Lin Yuan vigilantly scanned the surrounding inverted skyscrapers, ”We seem to have... entered an extraordinary place.”

Before he finished speaking.

”Hiss hiss—”

From the windows of those inverted buildings, from the shadows of the walls, black liquid like oil began to slowly seep out.

The liquid gathered on the ”ground,” wriggled, and finally transformed into humanoid monsters with no facial features and long, slender limbs.

”Low-level Abyssal Demon Servants”!

The aura emanating from these monsters was mostly only between E-rank and D-rank, but their number was dense, stretching as far as the eye could see.

”Their goal... is to delay you!” Su Wanqing understood the opponent’s intention, ”You go quickly, don’t mind me!”

”What nonsense are you talking about.”

Lin Yuan placed her aside, then stepped forward, shielding her.

Using a powerful skill like ”Thunder God’s Descent,” which burned money by the second, to clear these small fry was too wasteful.

He raised his right hand, and electric light gathered in his palm.

”Palm Thunder!”

Boom!

A basketball-sized ball of thunder shot out of his hand, exploding among the monster horde, creating a gap.

But the gap was quickly filled by more Demon Servants.

Endless.

”Damn it, human-wave tactics, no, monster-wave tactics...” Lin Yuan’s brows furrowed.

His power was rapidly depleting... Meanwhile, in the real world.

Outside the coffee shop, space rippled like water.

Jing’s figure emerged from it, dragging the blood-soaked and unconscious Tianshu in his hand.

He glanced at the ravaged street, then looked up at the somewhat unstable thunderclouds in the distance.

No emotion could be seen on the smooth mask.

He dragged Tianshu, his figure flashed, and returned to the underground command center.

”Bang.”

Tianshu was casually thrown onto the metal floor by him.

”Useless.”

Two words came from beneath the mask.

”Cough... cough cough!” Tianshu was startled awake by the severe pain, coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood foam, ”It’s him! Lord Jing! It’s that Lin Yuan! He’s not C-rank, he...”

”One accident, and you lost like this?” Jing interrupted him, his voice flat and calm, ”I sent you to check a node, and you almost died there.”

Jing walked to the main screen, looking at the live broadcast signal, which had turned to static.

”The establishment of the ’Bridge’ requires a stable B-rank energy coordinate.”

”Lin Yuan’s unexpected outburst made him a more perfect ’sacrifice’ than planned... Unfortunately, he escaped.”

He turned around and looked down at Tianshu.

”The sacrifice escaped, but the ritual cannot stop.”

”I will take over.”

Tianshu’s expression changed: ”You are going to personally...”

”You,” Jing ignored his shock, a controller was thrown in front of Tianshu, ”here, preside over the second phase of ’Apocalypse’.”

”The ’Evolution Spores’ have gradually spread throughout the city. Dragon Shield Bureau reinforcements... are almost here.”

Jing’s tone paused, as if calculating the time.

”Before they enter the city.”

”Close the gate.”

... Time flowed by, minute by minute.

Within the Mirror Domain.

Lin Yuan’s breathing was already somewhat heavy. He didn’t know how many Demon Servants he had killed, only that the monster corpses under his feet had piled up like mountains.

”Remaining power: 11%”

The System’s warning sound rang in his mind, like a death knell.

”Damn it, almost out of power...”

And it was at this moment.

In the real world, at the edge of Jiangcheng’s skyline.

Several dazzling lights were speeding towards Jiangcheng!

At the top of the spire.

Jing, who had replaced Lin Yuan as the center of the Heaven and Earth Qi, slowly raised his head.

He ”saw” those lights.

”They’re here.”

”But it’s too late.”

He reached out his hand and gently clenched it towards the city below.

Buzz—!!!!

With the spire as the center, hundreds of hidden nodes scattered throughout Jiangcheng erupted with towering energy light pillars at the same time!

These light pillars converged and connected in the high sky, weaving into a huge celestial net that covered the entire city!

The next second, the celestial net sank, transforming into a translucent energy dome, its edges perfectly fitting the city’s boundaries, completely enveloping Jiangcheng!

”Boom—!”

A sword light that had just reached Jiangcheng’s boundary fiercely struck the energy dome, but only stirred up a ripple of energy, failing to cause even a single crack.

Within the Mirror Domain.

Lin Yuan and Su Wanqing looked up simultaneously.

They saw that the inverted ”sky,” which was also the ”ground” beneath their feet, became transparent, revealing the real world outside.

A voice simultaneously echoed in their minds.

”Welcome to...”

”The true cage.”
