C17 The Power of the Copper Mirror

Chu Chen was facing an absolute crisis. The countless black vines were pointing at him. It was extremely strange and terrifying.

When compared to the dried bones on the ground, the scene was miserable and ghastly white, causing one to be unable to refrain from trembling.

Even with Chu Chen's temperament, he could not help but frown and his scalp went numb.

Fellow Daoists, I have no intention of barging in. Chu Chen dryly laughed twice and retreated two steps. Then, with lightning speed, he turned around and ran backwards.

At that moment, a few swishing sounds echoed in this quiet region. The countless black vines seemed to have recovered. They flickered with a dark and cold light and shot towards Chu Chen like lightning.

"Holy sh * t!"

Chu Chen cursed and quickly retreated. However, he could not avoid it and was wrapped by a few black vines.

He swore that this feeling was truly terrible. He assumed that it was similar to the feeling of being entangled by a python, even though he had never been entangled by one before.

Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!

More and more black vines came rushing over. Although they were vines, their speed was even faster than a spear. They seemed to fill the entire space as they wrapped themselves around Chu Chen's body.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Chen left the ground and was pulled up into the air by the black vines, swaying non-stop.

"Ah, break it for me!"

Chu Chen gave a loud shout as he madly circulated his star power. Streams of light rushed out from his body, turning into a vast starry sky. All sorts of strange phenomena rose up as starlight flashed, wanting to shake off the black vines that were wrapped around his body.

However, the black vine was abnormally hard, ten times harder than metal. Even if Chu Chen's star power exploded, he would not be able to move it at all.

"Chi!"

The sound of a knife entering flesh rang out and a black vine that was as thick as a thumb flashed with a cold light. It pierced through Chu Chen's skin and into his flesh.

What made Chu Chen even more afraid was that the black vines started to suck his blood. If this went on, all the blood in his body would be sucked dry and he would become a dried up corpse.

In the nick of time, his momentum was like thunder!

Just as Chu Chen was at his wit's end, a change suddenly occurred.

Within the Universe Ring, a brilliant burst of light suddenly burst out, as if a divine sun had risen, illuminating the dark forest.

Soon after, an ancient bronze mirror flew out and hovered in the air. It released a blazing divine multicolored light that illuminated all the heavens.

Chi chi!

Countless black vines melted quickly like snow meeting the sun. After a while, they all disappeared.

The black vines wrapped around Chu Chen's body also quickly retreated. In addition, under the burning light of the ancient bronze mirror, they turned into nothingness.

Without the black vines controlling him, Chu Chen had lost the ability to pull and he fell from the sky due to the gravity.

In this life or death situation, the Haotian Spirit Mirror experienced pressure and recovered on its own. It pushed back all the black vines and saved Chu Chen's life.

Chu Chen half knelt on the ground and used his hands to cover his waist. There, fresh blood flowed out and dyed his palm red.

It was pierced by the black vine. Fortunately, it was forced back by the Haotian Mirror. Otherwise, he would have already become a dried up corpse by now.

"It's all thanks to you. As expected of us, we came from the same place. You were the one who did it at the most critical time." Chu Chen gently smiled, if it wasn't for the Haotian mirror, he would have been in danger.

At the same time, he was secretly shocked. In front of the black vine, Chu Chen was like a child, not able to fight back at all. However, with the appearance of the Haotian Mirror, just a few ordinary lights were enough to force the black vine to retreat.

Whoosh!

The Clear Sky Mirror did not reply to Chu Chen. With a flash of light, it entered the Universe Ring and returned to silence.

Now, this area could be considered safe. The black vines had disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only the white bones on the ground.

Chu Chen sat cross-legged on the ground, circulating the star power within his body to heal his wounds.

It only took two hours for Chu Chen's injury to completely recover. Other than the clothes that were stained with traces of blood, there was nothing else.

"That was close, but luckily it was not dangerous at all!" Chu Chen let out a breath of relief. Luckily he had the Clear Sky Mirror, so he was able to survive.

After recovering from his injuries, Chu Chen started to move forward. He passed through the dense forest and stepped onto the dried up bones on the ground.

At this time, it was already evening, but Chu Chen's eyes were like torches, shining brightly. Even in the darkness, Chu Chen could still see clearly.

From dark to dawn, it was exceptionally slow for a person who was moving about. However, as time passed, the sky gradually turned white.

It was already dawn.

After a while, Chu Chen saw smoke rising from the cove in front of him. It looked like someone was cooking, it was quiet and peaceful.

Ever since he came to the Violet Microcosm Realm, Chu Chen had never seen such a scene. It was no different from the small mountain villages on Earth, calm and tranquil.

As he slowly approached, Chu Chen could clearly see the scene there. It was a lonely little town with not many houses. There were only a dozen or so families gathered together.

As he continued to get closer to the little town, Chu Chen saw a few graves at the edge of the small town. There were more than ten of them and some of them were newly built.

"Someone just died here? How could this be? There weren't many people here, so how could a few die at once? There must be something amiss. " Chu Chen had a puzzled look on his face, but he did not think too much and walked into the town.

Smoke curled up in spirals. A few birds were chirping softly on the branches, creating a peaceful scene. Other than these, this small town was truly peaceful.

In front of him, an inn appeared. On the flagpole in front of him, there was a shabby flag floating in the air. Written on the flag were a few large, yellowish words: "Friend's Inn".

Chu Chen walked into the inn and saw the owner who was bowing his head to calculate. He knocked on the table and ordered some dishes.

"Sure, we'll be there shortly!" The boss smiled and walked into the kitchen.

Since this place was so deserted, there couldn't be a waiter in this inn. Only the boss was in charge of all the matters.

Chu Chen found a stool and sat down. This was the first time he had seen something like this in the Violet Microcosm Realm, so he couldn't help but feel touched. That was why he entered this inn and ordered some food that he didn't need to eat.

After a while, the boss had all the dishes served, Chu Chen ordered a few jars of wine, opened the clay seal, and drank alone.

How could three cups of wine be a match for him?

On Earth, Chu Chen's alcohol tolerance was not bad. In various gatherings, he had always been a man of his principles of drinking three and a half kilograms of white wine. He was a man of his abilities.

And now that he had learned the cultivation method in the Violet Tiny World, there was no need to say anything about it, the capacity for alcohol would surely rise by several levels.
