This entry is suspicious.

Suddenly.

Zhou Ran vanished from his spot. His superb use of force made his movements astonishing, and he appeared like a ghost on the pure white steps in the distance.

Then he flashed again, traversing dozens of meters, and arrived in front of a white wooden door, where he threw a punch.

boom!

The wooden door exploded instantly, shattering into pieces and revealing the passage behind it.

This is the exit from the mirror maze!

In the shadows, the nameless man saw this scene through the mirror and was taken aback.

How was Zhou Ran able to find the exit of the mirror maze so accurately?

The action was so swift and decisive that he didn't even have time to react, let alone manipulate the materialized virtual image to stop it.

I don't know.

Zhou Ran had just been using the X-ray vision function of the [Eye of Truth] to observe the entire haunted house.

Now, the internal structure of the entire massive building, along with the people and their bizarre distribution, has been etched into his mind like a three-dimensional model.

Fire exits, staff exits, staff rest areas... the eeriness lingers in the haunted house, along with the Ming and Song dynasty porcelain, other tourists, and staff...

And, the nameless person sitting in the monitoring room!

[Zhuang Xinyan], [Forty-three years old], [Fourth level of Qi Refining], [Deacon of the Divine Cult], [A member of the Demonic Path], [Survivor of the Liuhe Village Incident], [Arrogance and Madness], [Controlling Two Strange Beings], [Strange Beings on the Verge of Resurrection], [The World in the Mirror], [The Illusionist]...

Using the Eye of Truth's ability to see through things, Zhou Ran saw the information about the Nameless One through the Book of Fate, which is why he decided to overturn the chessboard.

Fourth level of Qi Refining...

There's still room for maneuver!

By observing the nameless man and the many strange fate entries in the haunted house, Zhou Ran deduced the whole story.

The terrorist attack launched by the anonymous perpetrator is a large-scale, bizarre invasion!

The eerie things in haunted houses almost all have the ability to generate, assimilate, and split. If left unchecked, they can generate a large number of eerie entities in a very short time, spreading exponentially and becoming uncontrollable.

Therefore, the nameless need to find a place to nurture the eerie and allow it to develop safely, and a haunted house, with its complex structure, mixed crowds, and enclosed space that is difficult for outsiders to detect, is obviously the best choice.

In the current haunted house, many tourists and staff have been mysteriously killed and replaced.

Before this, countless strange creatures had already emerged from the haunted house and blended into the vast crowd.

If those bizarre events were to erupt collectively, the consequences would be unimaginable, triggering a true terrorist attack.

That's what makes it so eerie and terrifying.

Even someone at the Qi Refining stage can launch a catastrophic attack through uncanny means.

As for where the nameless man's many strange occurrences came from, and what kind of organization the cult is, we don't know for now, and it's not the time to delve into it.

Zhou Ran focused his mind, rushed out of the mirror maze, and ran wildly through the haunted house.

The map in his mind gave him an intimate knowledge of the haunted house's interior structure, as if he had a cheat code for navigation, allowing him to clearly point his way to the monitoring room.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Along the way, one door after another was violently blasted open by the Six Desires Demon Arm, with explosions constantly echoing.

Zhou Ran's physical strength was already close to the Qi Refining stage, and his running speed was astonishing. With the help of the map in his mind, he arrived at the door of the monitoring room in no time.

Boom!

The door to the monitoring room was smashed open with a punch, and the instant the door broke, a dangerous, blazing red light suddenly shone inside the room.

Immediately afterwards, a surging wave of fire, like an enraged beast unleashed from its cage, burst forth with a scorching heat, turning the entire corridor blood red.

Zhou Ran leaped up lightly, his Six Desires Demon Arm behind him plunging his fingers deep into the ceiling, hanging upside down like a gecko, avoiding the scorching heat.

Flames roared past beneath him, the intense heat causing his hair to curl slightly.

The spells of the Qi Refining stage are a deadly threat to those of the Enlightenment stage. Even if Zhou Ran could withstand one or two blows with his physical strength, he would still be severely injured.

The current situation clearly does not allow him to lose his fighting ability.

Zhou Ran's mind stirred—[Reverse Scale] activated.

In an instant, a majestic dragon's roar, seemingly from the ancient wilderness, exploded in my mind.

A violent force surged into every part of his body like a tidal wave, muscles bulged, bones creaked, and his five senses suddenly sharpened. Every inch of his flesh and blood broke through its limits in an instant, pushing it to unprecedented heights.

Feeling the surging power within his body, Zhou Ran was amazed:

"The effect of [Reverse Scale] is even stronger than I expected!"

At this moment, his physical strength has reached the Qi Refining level!

With a sudden burst of power, Zhou Ran shot into the monitoring room like a cannonball. During this time, the demonic arm disappeared and then reappeared, gaining the enhanced boost after activating the [Reverse Scale] state.

In the monitoring room, the anonymous man saw Zhou Ran actually recklessly barge in, and with a disdainful snort, he suddenly raised his right hand: "You're asking for death!"

A torrent of intense flames erupted from his palm, coalescing into a ferocious-looking fire serpent that lunged at Zhou Ran with its scorching maw.

The firelight illuminated the entire monitoring room, and the air itself seemed to distort under the intense heat.

Zhou Ran neither dodged nor evaded, but simultaneously unleashed the Six Desires Demon Arms behind him, charging with [Great Strength].

boom!!!

A terrifying shockwave exploded upon impact, and the fire serpent was blasted apart by the monstrous force, turning into countless fragments of flame that scattered in all directions.

Having withstood the explosion at close range, each of the Six Desires Demon's arms was damaged, with its skin torn open and even its dark bones exposed, but it instantly recovered and was back to normal.

Zhou Ran also suffered some damage, his internal blood and qi surging, but it was not a problem. The enhancement brought by [Reverse Scale] was a leap forward, and he now had the ability to fight against Qi Refining cultivators.

At this moment, he gripped a long sword wreathed in purple lightning and slashed it down at the nameless man from afar.

Thunder erupted, and a sharp purple lightning sword light tore through the air, heading straight for the nameless man.

The nameless man's pupils contracted sharply, clearly not expecting Zhou Ran to possess such a powerful offensive weapon. He hurriedly cast a defensive spell, and a dark blue light pattern appeared out of thin air, condensing into a hexagonal ice crystal barrier.

The purple sword light crashed down.

click!

The ice crystal barrier trembled violently, several cracks appeared on its surface, and countless tiny ice shards scattered everywhere. However, the sword light was also blocked. The purple lightning danced wildly on the ice surface, but it could not penetrate it.

After a brief stalemate, the sword light collapsed due to exhaustion, and the ice crystal barrier also exploded.

In the instant the ice dust swirled, Zhou Ran had already pounced forward and reached the nameless man.

The reason why body cultivators are hated by many cultivators is because their close combat ability is too terrifying. Once a body cultivator gets close, there is no way to counter them and they will be killed in one combo.

The monitoring room is not large, but this small space is perfect for physical training.

Oh no! The nameless man was terrified. Almost instinctively, he activated his internal magic power, generating a thick layer of solid ice on his body, as if he were wearing a suit of frost armor.

The next second, he was attacked by a barrage of attacks from the Six Desires Demon Arm.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!

Each punch was imbued with terrifying brute force, causing the ice armor to explode continuously, scattering ice shards everywhere.

The nameless man was forced to retreat repeatedly, filled with disbelief.

From the conversation between Zhou Ran and the other two in the haunted house, we know that they are just students who have just entered the second year of high school and are still in the enlightenment period. So why is this kid able to suppress them, who are in the Qi Refining stage, when they fight?

He had no time to think, gritting his teeth and continuously pouring magic into the ice armor to repair it, but the attack rhythm of the Demon Arm was ridiculously fast, giving him no chance to breathe or use other methods.

Just then, Zhou Ran swung his sword horizontally, and a sharp purple light flashed, striking the nameless man's neck.

The ice armor cracked open, the blade slicing into flesh, blood seeping out. The nameless man hurriedly used his hands, covered in ice crystals, to grab the blade tightly, preventing it from cutting any further.

Purple lightning crackled violently on the Heavenly Strike Sword. With the [Great Strength] attribute loaded, Zhou Ran gripped the sword with both hands, his arm muscles bulging as he continuously increased his strength, intending to behead the nameless man.

The nameless man's face was contorted with bulging veins, and the muscles in his arms swelled as he pushed the sword outward with all his might. At the same time, he frantically channeled his Frost Qi to repair his ice armor, and the shattered ice layers continued to regenerate.

The three demonic arms continued their rapid, relentless attacks, consuming his true energy. Two demonic arms gripped Zhou Ran's hands and sword hilt to provide assistance, while the last demonic arm seized the nameless man's neck, ignoring the chilling aura, and pressed his neck firmly to the right.

With force applied in both directions, the blade began to advance again.

"what!"

The nameless man roared furiously, and his ice armor suddenly exploded, turning into countless sharp ice blades that shot towards him.

Zhou Ran reacted extremely quickly, his Six Desires Demon Arms instantly retracting, overlapping in front of him like six solid shields, blocking all the ice blades.

The nameless man practiced a dual-elemental technique of ice and fire, and immediately activated his explosive flame true energy.

boom!

A burst of intense fire exploded between the two, and Zhou Ran was thrown away by the terrifying shockwave.

"You forced me to do this!"

The nameless man's eyes were bloodshot as he took out a forbidden item from his storage treasure.
