Crossover Anime: Mortal Slays Demons, Achieving Supernatural Power

Page 8

As the connection was established, Zhongli sensed another inexplicable change in his eyes, realizing the alteration of the Spirit Observation Technique.

Subconsciously, Zhong Li turned to look at Zhang Jinglan and Chen Miaomiao beside her, curious about what their data panels looked like.

As his eyes swept over the two people, two data panels rose up.

Zhang Jinglan

[Race]: Human

[Realm Level]: Peak Intermediate Spirit Master (Building-level combat power, capable of destroying a large skyscraper.)

[Supernatural Power]: Returning to One's Original Nature

[Spiritual Arts]: The Eight Great Divine Incantations of Taoism, Yang Five Thunders, Bajiquan, Shadowless Step, Phantom Body, and Spirit Observation Technique.

………………

Chen Miaomiao

[Race]: Human

[Realm Level]: Upper-level Spirit Master (Street-level combat strength, capable of destroying a street lined with tall buildings.)

[Supernatural Power]: Spiritual Gu Divine Body

[Spiritual Arts]: Clairvoyant Gu Worm, Dark Gu Worm, Poison-Eating Gu Worm, Cloud-Soaring Gu Worm, Earth Vein Gu Worm, Invisibility Gu Worm, Memory Gu Worm, Rusty Sound Gu Worm, Swarm Wind Gu Worm, Nerve Gu Worm, Romance Gu Worm...

………………

After looking at the data panels of the two people, Zhong Li's eyelids twitched.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jinglan and Chen Miaomiao were actually supernatural beings.

Originally, the person in charge of the company, Luo Jing, was a supernatural being.

He wasn't surprised; after all, he was in charge of Sakura, so it was normal for him to be capable.

But his best friend, his girlfriend, and his little fangirl were all supernatural beings, which surprised him greatly.

According to the information he gathered, shouldn't there be very few people with supernatural powers?

Why does it feel like it's worthless now?

What was even more unexpected was Chen Miaomiao's obedient dependence on him.

He was actually a high-level spiritualist capable of destroying a street lined with tall buildings.

Moreover, the number of Gu worms on his body was astonishing, making it a veritable worm den.

Although one's own cultivation level is insufficient to see the effects of the Gu worms, one can still glean some insight from their names.

Zhongli was utterly shocked.

At the same time, I am very satisfied with the spirit-observation technique.

The only drawback is that you can't see through the detailed abilities of those at the same or higher level; you can only see the names of the abilities and make a rough guess.

Seeing Zhong Li staring intently at her, Chen Miaomiao's pale face flushed slightly, and she whispered, unsure of what to do.

"What's wrong, Brother Zhong?"

Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?

As he spoke, he touched his cheek.

"Cough, no, I was just thinking about something."

Zhongli coughed lightly to demonstrate his shock, and then continued.

"Alright, I've already learned the Spirit Observation Technique."

Next, I'll choose a paranormal mission and try to solve it.

Zhang Jinglan, who had been watching Zhongli learn the Spirit Observation Technique the whole time, couldn't help but click her tongue in admiration and patted him on the shoulder.

"Zhongli, you are truly a prodigy."

"Who learns spiritual arts by just reading a scripture once? That's incredibly awesome!"

"It's just that it's easy to get started. Further learning requires cultivating spiritual techniques to level up, and I'm the same way."

Zhongli explained while consulting the paranormal system.

Zhang Jinglan nodded, then looked at Zhong Li, who was choosing a task, and continued.

Are you going to handle a paranormal mission right now?

"Yes, we need to complete more tasks to earn rewards and catch up with you as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Zhongli found a good task.

The Coffin Carrier at Dusk

P.S.: New book launch! Please give me flowers, monthly tickets, and ratings! I'm begging for your support!

Chapter 9 [The Coffin Bearer at Dusk], Chen Miaomiao's Past, Wugeng Family Gathering.

The Coffin Carrier at Dusk

Every time the demon appears, at dusk.

People covered in blood and mud, carrying seamless black iron coffins, will randomly appear in Chiyoda Ward.

People from the surrounding area were placed in coffins and then buried underground.

Because the coffin is extremely hard, no one has been able to break it open to this day. Anyone who is absorbed into the coffin will die, and even killing the person carrying the coffin cannot undo the damage.

Once the person inside the coffin suffocates and dies, the coffin will automatically disappear, leaving behind the body.

Strength rating: Lower level

Risk rating: Intermediate

Task Level: Intermediate

Task Reward: Ten lower-level exchanges

Zhongli looked around a few times and felt that this task was quite worthwhile.

His strength is among those of lower-ranking individuals whom he can handle.

Furthermore, due to the unique lethality of the seamless black iron coffin, the danger rating has been raised to intermediate level, allowing for ten lower-level exchanges.

In this way, he can exchange for many things he wants.

Moreover, the supernatural event system itself also provides rewards, so Zhongli is essentially profiting from both.

So he eagerly selected a task, just as it was getting close to dusk outside.

He can also immediately set out to complete supernatural missions.

As for how to find the coffin carrier at dusk?

The company system will provide a prompt.

Because Luo Jing's supernatural network system is monitoring Sakura's various locations.

Yes, that's the benefit of being organized and having logistics.

Seeing that Zhong Li had chosen an intermediate-level mission, Chen Miaomiao frowned and offered a worried suggestion.

"Brother Zhong, let me team up with you to complete the mission."

Although the coffin bearer at dusk was only of lower-level strength, his coffin was extremely dangerous.

Zhang Jinglan nodded in agreement.

"Zhongli, the mission you chose is indeed dangerous."

"It's better to have Miaomiao go with you, just in case something goes wrong."

She had killed the coffin carrier at dusk not long ago, so she naturally knew the characteristics of his coffin.

It's something neither she nor Chen Miaomiao can break; once someone is sucked in, they can only wait to die.

As for the coffin carrier who was killed at dusk, why did he still appear?

This is because the coffin bearer at dusk is a legendary species, a revival of a well-known legendary type, and legends never die out.

They will reappear after a period of time after each kill.

Seeing that both of them were worried about the suggestion, Zhongli suspected that he disagreed and that they couldn't leave the company.

Therefore, Zhongli fell into thought: if she completes a supernatural mission with others, will the supernatural event system determine that the mission is completed?

While pondering, Zhongli inquired with the paranormal event system.

[Ding! Solving a supernatural mission with another person has been completed.]

Having received the answer, Zhong Li had no more reservations and agreed to go on the mission with Chen Miaomiao.

"Thank you, Miaomiao."

Also, please let me handle as many tasks as possible; I want to test my current abilities.

Since becoming a lower-level spirit mage yesterday, he hasn't tested how strong he really is.

Although the system displays his strength level and the corresponding level of destruction.

But all of that is just an illusion. First of all, his supernatural power, Tear of the Void, is highly lethal.

Secondly, the compressed explosives he carried with him could easily destroy several buildings, if not a high-rise street.

Upon hearing Zhong Li's request, Chen Miaomiao obediently nodded.

"Okay, I'll just follow behind."

Seeing that his little fangirl was obedient, Zhongli was very pleased and felt that he had protected her all along for nothing.

Seeing that the two had finalized their proposal, Zhang Jinglan stood up, stretched, and said.

"Since you two are going on a mission, then I should also go and break through my limits."

As a supernatural being of equal talent to Chen Miaomiao, his breakthrough was a few days later than Chen Miaomiao's due to his playfulness.

She was very upset.

As Zhang Jinglan went to cultivate and break through her limits, Zhong Li and Chen Miaomiao left the company to search for the coffin bearer at dusk.

...As the sun sets, yin and yang unite...

Zhongli rode his spare blue modified motorcycle, Blue Wing, speeding through Chiyoda Ward, waiting for the coffin bearer to arrive at dusk.

Chen Miaomiao straddled the back seat, her face slightly flushed as she hugged the strong waist.

Her supple figure and full breasts pressed tightly against his broad back without any hesitation.

She enjoyed the sense of security that Zhongli gave her.

That's right, it's a sense of security.

Strangely enough, when Chen Miaomiao was sent to Sakura for training, it was her first time leaving the Miao village.

Because of a lack of common sense, they eat insects in public without any hesitation.

It startled everyone in the class and even spread throughout the school.

Even today, most people at the school keep their distance from her.

This left her, a naive girl who had just left the Miao village and was facing an unfamiliar environment, feeling lost and helpless.

Even with her immense power, she still felt distressed by the isolation she faced from the group.

Zhongli, however, did not experience the fear that most people do. Instead, he got very close to her and even wanted to eat her insects.

Even though Zhang Jinglan was her best friend, no one dared to eat her insects.

So this wonderful feeling gave her a strong sense of security and belonging, soothing her sense of helplessness.

Even now, when I recall those scenes, they remain vivid in my memory.

Zhongli: 'Hey, can I have that centipede of yours? It looks delicious!'

Thinking back to this, a rare faint smile appeared on Chen Miaomiao's usually cool face.
