As the Supernatural Item Crystal Earring shattered, its protective effect also diminished.
The bluish-black metallic sheen on Zhou Xiaomeng's body disappeared, and she was forced to confront the terrifying vibrations in the air.
She frantically urged the Supernatural within her to resist, but the Debt-Collecting Ghost she controlled wasn't very good at defense.
Fortunately, with Li Yunheng's help, the swarm of insects covered her.
Nevertheless, Zhou Xiaomeng had just suffered a considerable blow, and without the slightest hesitation, she immediately drank a bottle of Longevity Potion.
Not only her, but Qiao Xinyuan and Li Yunheng also successively replenished their Longevity Potions.
The shockwave created by Tianji somehow stimulated the Fierce Ghost within him, causing its resurgence to intensify.
As for Hu Jiu, his energy expenditure was minimal.
He had many moves he hadn't used, but he couldn't be sure if they would work. If they didn't, they would just be replenishing Tianji.
Tianji is an Omnipotence versatile warrior.
How should we deal with him?
This can't go on forever. Judging from the state of Li Yunheng and the others, if this stalemate continues, they might be worn down to death by Tianji.
At this Tianji still appeared calm and composed, but his complexion was not as rosy as it had been at the beginning. His gaze swept over everyone present, lingering on Hu Jiu for a while before finally settling on the Longevity Potion.
"The Headquarters really does offer great benefits; they're willing to lavish all sorts of good stuff on you guys. No wonder... they've produced a bunch of useless trash!"
When Tianji said this, the expression on her face was incredibly sarcastic.
He temporarily halted his attack, refraining from actively killing Hu Jiu and the others. The Magic Mirror's power was formidable; if anyone dared to make a move, he would immediately "fight fire with fire."
Therefore, Tianji was not very panicked compared to the kill squad sent by Headquarters. His main focus was on resisting the endless stream of curses.
Tianji, who only spouted nonsense but didn't take the initiative, was someone Hu Jiu and the others could guess who was thinking: he wanted to stall and wear down the four-person team at Headquarters.
At this moment, Hu Jiu suddenly appeared on Tianji's right side.
Pfft--
Before Tianji could react, a bloody hole burst open in his shoulder. If he hadn't instinctively turned his head, the hole would probably have appeared on his forehead.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Xinyuan, who was not far away, was overjoyed and his face showed excitement.
Although it's unclear how Hu Jiu injured Tianji, it at least proves that Tianji isn't invincible, and that they weren't in such despair.
The strength Tianji displayed just now was truly terrifying. The more we fought, the less confident I became. Now that Tianji has wounds on his body, it's enough to prove that he's not as invincible as he seems!
A sense of confidence rose in Qiao Xinyuan's heart. He felt that he and Hu Jiu were about the same level of Ghost Tamers, and if Hu Jiu could do it, he should be able to do it too.
Even if he couldn't do that, he could still help Hu Jiu cover for him.
Li Yunheng's gaze towards Hu Jiu was somewhat strange.
After delivering the first blow, Hu Jiu retreated to a distance.
Tianji covered her wound with her hand, looking at Hu Jiu with surprise and uncertainty.
How is that possible? How did he discover the weakness in the Magic Mirror's copying ability?
The initial shock and suspicion in his heart quickly turned into murderous intent.
The Magic Mirror's weakness must never be exposed!
This child must not be allowed to live!
Tianji abandoned its plan of passive defense and wearing down the four-person Headquarters team, and instead launched a frenzied offensive.
A violent explosion resounded in the air, and a terrifying shockwave capable of shattering a person alive struck indiscriminately in all directions.
At this moment, Tianji suddenly noticed something was wrong.
The shockwave he created couldn't even travel out!
To be precise, the sound couldn't be heard from this training ground!
The training ground seemed to be surrounded by an invisible barrier, preventing sound from escaping; shockwaves disappeared upon hitting that barrier.
Was this also part of Headquarters' plan? I truly underestimated the national Headquarters! Tianji thought solemnly to himself.
He then became increasingly ruthless. Whether for his own benefit and reputation or to keep the secret, he had to keep these people alive!
Faced with Tianji's ferocious attack, Qiao Xinyuan by and wait for their doom.
Hu Jiu had already poked an unhealable hole in Tianji's shoulder, and the wound was still bleeding.
"Hu Jiu, you take the lead in the attack, we'll help you hold him off!" Qiao Xinyuan shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly started cracking and popping. In an instant, he transformed into a terrifying scarecrow!
The scarecrow pointed at Tianji, and several birds made of skeletons flew out of its belly, frantically flying towards Tianji!
"Hurry up, I can't stay in this state for long!" he shouted.
A series of whooshing sounds rang out as the skeletal birds moved at incredible speed. Some were shattered by the shockwaves in the air, while others circled around Tianji, trying to confuse him.
Seeing this, Tianji snorted coldly, and his body instantly began to transform into a scarecrow.
However, at this very moment, Zhou Xiaomeng, who had been slacking off, finally seized the best opportunity and activated her Debt-Collecting Ghost abilities.
She reached out to Tianji like a spoiled child demanding a huge amount of pocket money from their parents, disregarding their family's financial situation.
Tianji froze on the spot, a very strange expression appearing on his face.
Hu Jiu took the opportunity to stab two more holes in him.
"How did you do that?" Li Yunheng asked Hu Jiu, his gaze scrutinizing her.
His tone was a little strange.
"Use invisible Fierce Ghost to attack." Amidst the tense battle, Hu Jiu only managed to utter this one sentence.
Whether it's a mirror or Mirage, what it reflects is tangible.
A conceptualized Fierce Ghost, intangible and without physical form, cannot be copied.
Li Yunheng frowned. Once a conceptualized, Intangible Fierce Ghost is controlled, it transforms from formless to tangible. The Ghost Tamer becomes the vessel of the Intangible Fierce Ghost. How can they prevent it from being replicated?
He wanted to ask more questions, but Hu Jiu was unwilling to answer.
Hu Jiu naturally had a way to manipulate invisible Fierce Ghost to attack Tianji.
Tianji clutched his wounds. He seemed to possess some kind of healing ability, but the wounds did not heal. Instead, they rotted rapidly, emitting a foul stench, and the red blood turned black in no time.
Despite this, Tianji remained calm.
Tianji glanced at the four enemies in front of him and sneered. As an elder, he wouldn't dare say he was particularly clever, but in terms of discerning people's hearts, he was definitely far superior to those young people.
You'll understand once you've met more people.
The four-person team in front of us was originally quite united.
But now, their hearts are not united.
The Ghost Tamer controlled the insects was in a very awkward mood at the moment.
Tianji guessed his thoughts almost instantly!
