The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

The first to emerge from that vortex were indeed the four mirror images!

Not only are there four mirrored lines, but also eight lines, three of bamboo, and nine of characters.

These are all mirror-image bandits who previously entered the Third Advanced Research Institute and never came out again!

"Wow! They're not dead!"

"How did they manage that? Wasn't that research institute the first to be swallowed by the black hole?"

"Could it be that they had already traveled to the Dark Star before this?"

"That's possible. Maybe someone from Dark Star is coming over, so they've pushed them back?"

As the black vortex continued to extend outwards, everyone was finally able to see it clearly.

Four or eight of them were actually lying on black pillars.

The pillar was enormous, about fifty meters in diameter, and its length was unknown, as part of it was outside and the other part was still inside the vortex.

The surface of the pillar was covered with a layer of jet-black scales.

The scales were very regular, arranged neatly in rows, reflecting a cold, icy light under the moonlight.

There are five such pillars, each slightly different in thickness, slowly extending outwards from the vortex.

The Dark Compass also saw the mirror images of Shijou and the others lying on the pillar.

"What are you doing here?! You are sitting in oblivion! What do you want now?! Get out of here! Don't defile our great Dark Emperor!"

Thinking back to how I was tricked and humiliated by being shone with over a thousand flashlights, I felt a pang of resentment.

Compass couldn't swallow this insult.

Seeing the Daoists of the Forgetfulness Sect inexplicably appear in his vortex, he thought they were up to some trick again.

Without hesitation, he activated the Dark Compass to launch an attack.

The dark compass spun faster, and strange symbols appeared on it.

Within the spatial vortex, a bolt of spatial turbulence lightning shot out, striking the four mirror images that were still unconscious.

"ah!!"

With a piercing scream, the four mirror images were charred corpses by the lightning bolt, falling from the black pillar and shattering into pieces.

Having just regained consciousness, Hachijo, Santsubo, and the others, who were also on the pillar, witnessed this scene and were immediately enraged.

"Dark Compass! What are you doing?!"

"What are you doing? Don't rush, you're next. This is what happens when you defile the Dark Emperor!"

"Who the hell defiled the Dark Emperor!"

I remember jumping into a research institute using a mirror image, and then being stuck to the surface by a broken device and unable to move.

Not long after, someone came and blew up the device, and then the mutant beast came in!

We had no choice but to hide in the mirror world. Just now, we were inexplicably and automatically ejected from the mirror world, and then we passed out.

"And here it is! When did you defile your Dark Emperor?!"

"Do you think I'd listen to your nonsense about the Dao of Sitting in Oblivion? Die!"

Another bolt of spatial turbulence lightning, drawn from the spatial vortex by the Dark Compass, struck Hachijo.

Hachijo also died.

The remaining three bandits, seeing that they were going to be killed anyway, simply hugged those large black pillars and self-destructed.

"Damn it! I'm going to blow up your Dark Emperor right now!"

The Daoist of Sitting in Oblivion decisively self-destructed.

Several white mushroom clouds rose up.

The five pillars beneath their feet appeared unaffected, continuing to extend outwards, becoming longer than before, and showing signs of segmentation.

At this point, a closer look from a distance reveals that these five pillars resemble five fingers.

However, these five fingers have very long nails and sharp spikes on their surface.

Mirror Ghost and the others were enraged when they saw their Mirror Four and other companions, who had escaped death, being killed by the Dark Compass, and others forced to self-destruct.

"Brothers! What's our slogan?!"

"Kill one of me, and I'll wipe out his entire family! Kill ten of me, and I'll desecrate their ancestral graves!"

"The other end of this spatial vortex is the Dark Star, right?"

"Go to Dark Star! Dig up their ancestral graves!"

"Won't we be able to adapt to the natural environment on Dark Star?"

"To hell with it! We must carry out this slogan!"

Then, more than a thousand mirror-image bandits, howling and displaying their unique abilities, rushed down from the mountain.

That imposing presence was truly like a tiger descending the mountain!

Even the Dark Compass couldn't help but shudder when it saw it.

"Madmen! You want to challenge the Dark Emperor? Hahaha! You're overestimating yourselves!"

The Mirror Ghost Brother stands atop a skeletal dragon, wielding a demon-slaying sword, exuding righteous indignation.

"We are mirror images, mirror images that can only live for a month! How dare you overestimate yourselves! This is a great fight! Charge into Dark Star and slaughter them!"

Wan Jianyi was shocked.

These more than a thousand Daoists, seemingly fearless, charged headlong into the vortex.

Judging by the speed at which they're running, they really have no intention of braking!

"you……"

Subjectively speaking, the Dao of Sitting in Oblivion is actually about doing whatever you want. Since the Dark Star killed a few of their people, they wanted to dig up their ancestral graves.

Objectively speaking, what are they doing?

They are protecting the blue planet!

Regardless of whether they succeed or not, and regardless of how many victories they achieve, future generations will always honor them with the title of human heroes!

Although they don't seem to be human either.

"If even the Daoist path of meditation is fighting for this planet, why can't I give it my all?"

Wan Jianyi seemed to have made some kind of decision.

He took out a book of experience from his backpack and used it.

A beam of light, representing an upgrade, descended upon him.

He got promoted.

Lv90!

The Dark Compass noticed this.

"Do you even know what reaching level 90 means?!"

With a sword drawn across his brow, Wan Jianyi's entire demeanor seemed to have undergone a change.

"I'll stop at nothing to wipe you out!"

The Dark Compass gritted its teeth.

"Wan Jianyi, you're a madman too!"

The upgraded Wan Jianyi is much stronger than before.

Many high-level equipment items have enhanced attributes that are linked to the player's level.

Therefore, the improvement brought by upgrading is not just a few attribute points.

Furthermore, in a duel between masters, even the slightest mistake can lead to a huge error.

If the two sides are evenly matched, but the opponent suddenly gains a little more agility and strength, it means that you can no longer dodge attacks that you could normally avoid, and you can imagine how painful it will be when you get hit.

"Ultimate Move: Six Paths of Reincarnation!"

Wan Jianyi's signature ultimate move.

The sword was drawn, a sound rang out, and the ten mutated warriors were torn apart inch by inch.

This time, they couldn't heal.

Because their potential has been exhausted.

Entering a state of combustion is only a temporary state.

Having dealt with these troublesome issues, Wan Jianyi flew towards the vortex.

The Dark Compass remained completely calm.

"Dark Emperor! Let them witness your immense power!"

The five fingers moved, and a terrifying aura emanated from them, with thick black mist swirling around them.

Wherever the black mist passed, space itself shattered!

powerful!

Very strong!

Once Wan Jian made his decision, those five fingers could easily kill everyone present!

But suddenly, his five fingers stiffened and seemed to twist, as if he was in great pain.

Upon closer inspection, the vortexes emanating from these fingers, and the even larger body behind them, seemed to have shrunk slightly compared to before.

Wan Jianyi was puzzled.

Why?

The Dark Compass also noticed it.

"Oh! Dark Emperor! I'm so sorry! I, I, this... why has the passage I created become smaller?"

The Mirror Ghost stopped in front of the vortex.

"Is this Dark Emperor caught in a trap?"
