This "Illusory Spiritual Treasure Art: Qingming Mirror" is different from the books that have emerged from Variants before. It only includes one Illusion Treasure - the Qingming Mirror.
Unable to figure out the specifics of the Qingming Mirror, Xiao Mu decided to learn from it.
With his palm pressed on the "Illusory Spiritual Treasure Art: Qingming Mirror", Xiao Mu chose to accept its inheritance.
Putting the blank "Illusory Spiritual Treasure Art" to one side, Xiao Mu closed his eyes and began to familiarize himself with the knowledge he had just received.
Not long after, a look of delight appeared on his face.
The Qingming Mirror was certainly an Illusory Spiritual Treasure, manifesting as a special mirror through the Dao Method Spiritual Energy.
This mirror seizes the target of the attack by harnessing the Power of Sunlight, causing the target to slow down, with severe cases even becoming completely immobilized.
If used in conjunction with a Spiritual Array, the power of the Qingming Mirror would be further enhanced, slowing down the opponent to an astonishing degree.
This was formidable indeed!
Xiao Mu speculated that with this Qingming Mirror, in coordination with a Spiritual Array, even the Red Blood Demon would not be as frightening anymore. Two Mid Bone Forger Realm martial artists working together might even be able to compete with it.
Given these conditions, Xiao Mu felt more confident in dealing with the ghost.
In the following days, Xiao Mu constantly practiced in order to familiarize himself with his own realm and the usage of the Qingming Mirror, ensuring he could expertly deploy the Qingming Mirror.
At last, the seventh day arrived.
Xiao Mu and the others gathered at the Xu Family's family temple.
This time, Xiao Mu didn't only have Zhao Yan, Wang Tong, and Ancestor Xu on his side, but also specially invited Lei Jiang.
After learning of the ghost's identity from Qing Yan, Xiao Mu decided to be more cautious.
This was the strongest team he could assemble at the moment.
Both Wang Tong and Ancestor Xu had successfully improved their capabilities. One had entered the Bone Forger Realm, the other was Comparable to Blue Blood Demon.
What surprised Xiao Mu was Lei Jiang's strength. It had also improved, nearly advancing to the Mid Bone Forger Realm.
The outcome naturally pleased Xiao Mu.
Introductions were made, and everyone became acquainted.
Gathering everyone, Xiao Mu said, "The evil ghost we are up against is very powerful. It's unclear just how formidable it is at the moment, but there's definitely at least one Red Blood Demon, perhaps two, or even three in the worst-case scenario, although that's unlikely."
"Aside from the Red Blood Demon, there might also be Blue Ghosts and Green Ghosts, but the exact number is unknown."
"This time, our opponent is very strong. It'll be tough to conquer them, but it doesn't mean that there's no chance of victory."
"Let's first discuss the distribution of the spoils of war. Zhao Yan, you explain."
Zhao Yan took over the explanation, "Mr. Mu intends to establish an organization similar to a guild. Whether you join or not is entirely up to you. If anyone doesn't wish to join, we don't force them. We distribute the profits based on each individual's contribution."
"Mr. Mu wants to set up a guild?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Tong was delighted and said, "I'll definitely be the first to join."
Ancestor Xu laughed, "Although I don't know what a guild is, I, Xu, will definitely join."
Lei Jiang also chuckled, "Give me three spots."
Seeing that everyone was willing to join, Zhao Yan said, "In that case, let's distribute according to the guild's allocation method."
"We adopt a 'Points System'. Besides directly allocating the Energy Crystals according to contributions, everything else will be converted into guild points, such as an Energy Fruit, which is worth a hundred points. Everyone can exchange things from the guild according to the points they have…"
Zhao Yan explained the details. The rules, similar to those in an online game, were straightforward and easy to understand.
"This time, including Mr. Mu's Ghost Servants, we have six people in total. Three are Comparable to Blue Blood Demon, another three are Comparable to Green Ghosts. Distribution method is each Mid level gets 20%, which is 0.2, and each Early Stage gets 0.13. Does anyone have objections?"
This distribution method was rather reasonable – individuals at the Mid level should inherently receive more than those at the Early Stage. Everyone present agreed.
Ancestor Xu then said, "I, Xu, don't mind if I don't get any part. After all, this venture serves to benefit my family."
Lei Jiang followed closely and said, "I owe Mr. Mu four lives, there's no need for division."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yan solemnly replied, "This is the guild's rule. What should be divided must be divided, otherwise, it will be hard to manage the guild in the future. Let's stop being polite and divide according to this method."
The crowd didn't say anything else.
Xiao Mu then said, "Let's now discuss how to fight."
"The strength of the Evil Ghost is likely stronger than ours, so to win, we must be cunning."
"I have a plan, let's see if it works."
"The Evil Ghost wants to get out, it must pass through the Ghost Gate."
"The entrance of the Ghost Gate is not big, at most it can only allow one person (or ghost) to pass through at a time. So, I suggest Ancestor Xu and the Ghost Servant block the entrance as two strong close fighters, and I'll support from the rear. Let's block the evil ghost, releasing it one at a time so everyone can quickly surround and kill it!"
"Great strategy!"
Wang Tong immediately applauded with praise.
Zhao Yan couldn't help but give him a disdainful look, this guy always rushes to brown-nose Xiao Mu."
However, as he said, this method is indeed good, and seems the best and easiest way to fight the prince currently.
Lei Jiang and Ancestor Xu also praised this strategy.
"Since it's settled, let's all start preparing, I will take the time to set up the array."
After Xiao Mu gave his instructions, everyone found a place to rest and adjust their states.
He released the Ghost Servant, instructing it to constantly monitor behind the door as he began to set up the Spiritual Array in the courtyard.
Xiao Mu set up several spiritual arrays next to the gate, this way, they could be used multiple times and every time the Evil Ghost comes out of the gate, it would fall right into the spiritual array.
Xiao Mu could take advantage of this moment to activate the Qingming Mirror, use it to hold down the Evil Ghost and quickly kill it.
After the spiritual arrays were all set up, everyone sunk into a long wait.
The sky gradually darkened.
As soon as it was dark, the atmosphere in the yard suddenly became heavy, as if even the air had solidified, incredibly eerie.
"Woo woo!"
The sound of the Ghost Cry suddenly sounded.
Whoosh!
As if the air was sucked away, a pitch-black vortex suddenly appeared behind the door.
"Quick!"
Xiao Mu shot out multiple Spirit Armor Talisman, respectively hitting Ancestor Xu, Ghost Servant, Zhao Yan, Lei Jiang, Wang Tong, and himself.
"Here it comes!"
Ancestor Xu and Ghost Servant, sensing something, moved closer to the vortex without waiting for instruction.
Lei Jiang and Wang Tong unconsciously clench their fists, standing at the edge of the spiritual array, ready to strike at any time.
In Zhao Yan's hand, a longer and stronger Electric Light Whip appeared, but her position was beside Xiao Mu.
Like Xiao Mu, she had the ability to support both sides with long-range attacks. Xiao Mu purposefully asked her to stand with him.
"I told you I'd be back, today all of you are going to die!"
The grating voice of the prince suddenly echoed from the vortex.
A pair of blood-red claws emitting an unspeakable stench suddenly stretch out from the vortex, tearing it apart.
The terrifying and bizarre face of the prince followed, staring at everyone with a cruel and wicked grin plastered on his face.
