As a Foundation Establishment great demon, he could not resist the Gravity Technique of a Core Formation Stage cultivator.

Moreover, this was not an ordinary Core Formation Stage; it was the peak of Core Formation, far beyond the old woman from the Purple Mist Sect.

Xu Hei's eyes were blood-red, filled with raging anger, but his mind remained calm.

At the moment he was pulled up, a pale gold storage bag fell from his mouth.

This was the storage bag Hei Huang had given him.

"Open it at the moment of life and death. Whatever is inside, you can fight any opponent to a draw!"

These were Hei Huang's exact words.

Xu Hei didn't know what was inside, nor if it would be useful. Facing a Core Formation Stage cultivator, he might not even have time to use it before being killed.

But Xu Hei did not hesitate for a moment.

The storage bag automatically opened, and a purple bronze mirror flew out.

Seeing the familiar mirror, Xu Hei's pupils contracted. He had seen it before; it was the very mirror Hei Huang had tried to steal from the Purple Mist Pavilion.

"This is..."

Xuan Yangzi's gaze sharpened, instinctively dodging to avoid being reflected by the mirror, but the mirror seemed to lock onto him, aiming directly at him.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, a reflection appeared in the mirror, looking exactly like Xuan Yangzi.

The reflection waved its hand, and Xuan Yangzi's face changed dramatically, retreating hastily. Xu Hei seized the opportunity to break free from the Gravity Technique and fled from mid-air.

"Boom!!"

A noticeable dent appeared on Xuan Yangzi's chest.

The entire scene erupted in chaos, everyone witnessing this was shocked to the core.

"What is that mirror?"

"How could it harm a Core Formation Stage cultivator!?"

"My heavens, what kind of treasure is this?"

"I think I've seen this item in the Purple Mist Pavilion!"

For a moment, the crowd was abuzz, the disciples of the Snake Catchers Sect were all stunned, their eyes filled with shock.

At this moment, all eyes were on that purple bronze mirror.

From the mirror, a figure emerged.

This person, dressed in a yellow robe, a middle-aged scholar, looked exactly like Xuan Yangzi, the very reflection from the mirror!

However, this reflection had materialized, as if it had come to life, staring at Xuan Yangzi with identical expressions.

Xuan Yangzi's gaze was fixed on the mirror, coldly saying, "So, this is the mirror's effect. I underestimated it!"

He had seen this mirror before; it was obtained by the Purple Mist Ancestor and stored in the Purple Mist Pavilion, seemingly useless except for its hardness.

Now, it was an unexpected surprise.

Xuan Yangzi disappeared from his spot, reaching for the bronze mirror, but the reflection also waved its hand, unleashing a strike. A deafening explosion echoed through the void, forcing Xuan Yangzi to retreat.

"Hmph!"

Xuan Yangzi snorted coldly, summoning an ancient cauldron that enlarged in mid-air, pressing down on the reflection.

This cauldron, named the Myriad Serpent Cauldron, was a third-tier magical treasure, effective against Core Formation Stage cultivators. No matter how strong the reflection was, it was still just a reflection, incomparable to a real cultivator.

Unexpectedly, the reflection also summoned an identical Myriad Serpent Cauldron, enlarging it and pressing it down on Xuan Yangzi.

"How is this possible?!"

Xuan Yangzi's face finally changed, exclaiming in shock.

He quickly took out two third-tier talismans, simultaneously activating them with a low shout of "explode," causing an explosion in front of the Myriad Serpent Cauldron.

The reflection did the same, producing two talismans, shouting "explode," and blasting Xuan Yangzi's cauldron away.

Xuan Yangzi then summoned a flying sword, and the reflection did the same. The two swords clashed in mid-air, evenly matched.

After some probing, Xuan Yangzi realized that the reflection could replicate his magical treasures and talismans perfectly, an unbelievable phenomenon!

"If I can't deal with the mirror, I'll deal with its owner!"

Xuan Yangzi changed his tactics, summoning ancient wood to create wooden puppet clones, sending them towards Xu Hei.

The reflection also summoned ancient wood, creating countless wooden puppet clones, even more than Xuan Yangzi's, intercepting all of them.

Some even charged towards the disciples below, causing them to scream and flee in terror.

Xuan Yangzi's face turned dark.

He finally realized that relying on himself alone, it would be difficult to spare a hand to kill this snake. Targeting Xu Hei would only provoke the reflection to use even stronger methods.

He needed help.

"Master, don't worry, I'll kill this snake!"

Wu Mochou saw Xuan Yangzi's predicament and stood up from the mountaintop, speaking loudly.

"And us!"

"Just a Foundation Establishment Stage, easily crushed!"

Liu Fei, Wang Ping, and other disciples also stood up, drawing their magical treasures.

Xuan Yangzi took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Everyone, attack together with all your might, kill this snake! Leave no survivors!"

With these words, everyone present stopped their cultivation, stood up, and focused their gaze on Xu Hei, who had not fled but instead charged towards the crowd.
