Beauty and the Bodyguard

However, this was also good. If he could get his hands on it, not only would he be able to satisfy Shangguan LAN 'er's needs, but he could also keep one for himself, killing two birds with one stone.

"Then, the game begins."

Before he could finish his sentence, the ground started to shake, and to Lin Yi's surprise, the wood that came out from under his feet turned into a human figure-a very familiar human figure.

"What's the meaning of this?" Lin Yi's face turned ugly when he saw the face of the wooden figure-this wooden figure looked exactly like him!

"Although your strength is outrageously weak, you should have fought many enemies before. Then, have you ever fought with yourself?" GUI Mei's voice cackled.

Lin Yi's voice turned cold,"Is this your so-called game? so what if you can imitate my appearance? in the end, it's just for show."

"How would we know if we don't try? As long as you can defeat it, you'll get two thousand-year tree crystals. Hurry up, I can't wait!" GUI Mei's voice was urgent.

Lin Yi hmphed coldly. He didn't waste any more time and started attacking the mirror image.

Every master had their own pride and self-respect. Even if they knew that the other person was just a block of wood, they would still feel very uncomfortable when they were copied like this. Lin Yi was no exception.

However, Lin Yi didn't look down on the spirit beast even though it was just a piece of wood. Since it dared to use two thousand-year tree crystals as a bet, this mirror image made of wood couldn't be simple.

In an instant, an unparalleled hot fist intent enveloped the entire tree hole. Lin Yi was like a fire god that had descended, vowing to burn everything in front of him into ashes. Raging fire Fist 23 forms!

"As expected, this giant fir tree is indeed extraordinary." Lin Yi praised internally.

If it were any other tree, the fire would have been unstoppable, even if there was pressure from the lake outside. However, although the tree hole was extremely hot, there was no sign of it burning.

But even so, Lin Yi believed that this wooden mirror image's biggest weakness was still fire attacks like the wild fire Fist. Fire countered wood, this was an unchanging truth.

BOOM! The wild fire Fist hit the wooden mirror image's face directly, smashing it dozens of feet away. It only stopped when it was deeply embedded in the cave wall, causing a loud bang.

"Oh, it seems like I should take back my previous comment. Although your strength is pitifully weak, your potential is not bad. Interesting." GUI Mei's voice laughed strangely as he praised.

Before he could finish, Lin Yi frowned as the wooden mirror walked out of the cave, shaking its shoulders. Other than a few burns on its body, Lin Yi didn't see any life-threatening injuries.

Not only that, but even the burning property of the 23 styles of wild fire Fist didn't appear on his body. It must be known that even a mid-Foundation Stage master like Yu Zhe was helpless against this property.

Was this thing really made of wood? Lin Yi looked at the mirror puppet and couldn't help but feel that it was unbelievable and absurd. The 23 forms of wild fire Fist hit a puppet, but it didn't burn to ashes. Instead, it seemed to be more energetic.

Not only that, but after being bombarded by the wild fire Fist, it seemed to have been injected with some kind of vitality, and its body actually emitted a powerful aura no different from a real person.

"Eh? This aura?" Lin Yi's eyelids twitched as he saw the mirror puppet flying towards him. Its right fist was burning with a fiery fist intent.

This burning fist intent was exactly the same as Lin Yi's twenty-third style of the wild fire Fist!

BOOM! The mirror puppet punched the ground, leaving a deep burnt hole. From the power, it seemed to be even stronger than Lin Yi's original version of the 23rd Style of the wild fire Fist. If Lin Yi didn't Dodge in time, he would be seriously injured.

Lin Yi's fear grew even stronger-who was this guy, to be able to imitate this?

Any martial technique required constant practice before it could be successfully cultivated. Even the most talented genius could only shorten this time, but could not skip it.

However, the other party had directly imitated it in front of him. This ability was simply heaven-defying to the point that it made one's hair stand on end.

What was even more exaggerated was that, according to Lin Yi's speculation, this mirror puppet wasn't even the real person. It was just a toy that was made up at the last minute.

If a toy was already so freakish, how terrifying would this guy's actual body be?

Strictly speaking, it was even more terrifying than the unknown monster that was roaming in the Half Moon Lake. It was likely that only this monster could make a powerful golden core stage master fall here.

"How is it? Challenging yourself is a compulsory course for every cultivator. Humans like to boast shamelessly. Now, facing the other you, let's see what kind of answer you can give. " GUI Mei's voice was cruel.

"Interesting." Lin Yi looked at the mirror puppet that looked exactly like him and laughed coldly, "It's just an imitation puppet, yet you dare to claim to be another me. Don't you think that you're too arrogant?"

"Is that so? I can't wait to see such a good show as long as you pay the price of two thousand-year tree crystals. Anyway, if you die, I won't even have to pay this price. "

"Hehe, then open your eyes wide and take a good look." Lin Yi smiled faintly.

Now that things had developed to this point, the initial shock had been gradually suppressed in his heart. The only thing he had to do now was to defeat this so-called mirror image of himself in front of him.

Lin Yi used his butterfly microsteps to its maximum and his body flickered around the mirror puppet for a while before he attacked. This time, he didn't use any martial arts, just normal but powerful punches and kicks.

Unexpectedly, just as Lin Yi moved, the mirror puppet's body also started to flicker. Its movement technique was the same as Lin Yi 's, but it was even faster and purer.

"He can even master the butterfly microstep. What a terrifying guy." Lin Yi's heart shivered-he'd already expected this after the twenty-three forms of wild fire Fist. He was surprised, but not shocked. (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
