Seeing no pity or hesitation in Yideng's eyes, and knowing she had met her match, the little girl stopped pretending, let out a sudden roar, and broke free of the Buddhist prayer beads on her body.

From an eight or nine-year-old little girl to a majestic and powerful black bear!

With bloodthirsty eyes and a cold glint in its claws, the black bear raised its paw and slammed it down on Yideng!

With golden light enveloping his hands, Yideng raised his hand without dodging or flinching and slapped the black bear's paw together.

A deafening bang resounded, and the cave trembled several times.

The black bear was sent flying by Yideng, its heavy body crashing to the ground, unable to get up for a while.

Yideng took out his Qiankun Bag and put the black bear into it.

The ground and stone walls were covered with long, deep scratches from the black bear's struggle.

Xia Linyin twirled the candle on her finger, her brows furrowed with melancholy. A single move was all it took to kill him; the bald monk's strength was growing stronger and stronger.

She had been trapped in this square for long enough; she couldn't feel at ease until she saw Xiao Li.

The bald monk always has his glasses with him; how is she supposed to get out?

A hint of bitterness spread through Xia Linyin's mouth.

After using the Qiankun Bag to capture the black bear demon, Yideng did not leave immediately, but continued to walk into the cave.

The further you go in, the stronger the smell of blood becomes, and more bones gradually appear on the ground.

When Yideng reached the innermost part of the cave, the mountain of bones truly shocked Xia Linyin.

The white, bone-covered mountain contains bones of various animals, as well as human skulls.

Judging from the looks of it, that black bear demon has been living here for a long time.

Beside the mountain of bones lay several human corpses, their hearts ripped out, large, hollow holes in their chests, dark red blood pooling on the ground.

The corpses were all dressed in Taoist robes or similar garments, and had various strange magical implements hanging from their waists. They were probably Taoist priests or demon hunters who came to capture the black bear demon, but unfortunately, they all lost their lives here.

There was another person lying in the corner. Yideng went over and checked their breathing. After finding that they were still alive, he turned the person over.

Seeing the somewhat familiar face, Xia Linyin was slightly taken aback. The person lying on the ground was none other than Master Niu.

The Buddhist power at his fingertips condensed into a small golden lotus. Yideng lightly tapped the forehead of Master Niu with his finger, and the golden lotus disappeared into Master Niu's body.

Master Niu slowly awoke, and upon seeing the person standing before him, he said, "Master Yi... Master Yideng?"

"I'm not dead? Master, you saved me?"

Master Niu pushed himself up from the ground, his hands touching sticky blood. He looked down the bloodstains and saw several gruesome corpses. His legs trembled, and he fell back down.

After calming his frightened heart, Master Niu said with lingering fear, "Master Yideng, you really came just in time! I almost... I almost ended up like these fellow Daoists."

Master Niu swallowed hard. "Master Yideng, what about... what about the black bear demon?"

“I’ve taken it,” Ichidō said casually.

"You accepted it?"

Seeing that Yideng was not at all disheveled and did not look like he had just finished a fierce battle, Master Niu could not help but sigh, "Master is indeed a master. I consider myself to have some skills, but before I even met the black bear demon, I was trapped by its illusions and could not escape. Yet Master subdued such a powerful black bear demon without breaking a sweat. I am truly ashamed."

"Is that illusion really that powerful? I think it's very simple. I figured out where the key point of the formation was in less than three seconds. It really wasn't challenging at all."

A woman's voice suddenly rang out in the cave, startling Master Niu, who almost mistook it for the voice of the black bear demon.

He looked at the mirror at Yideng's waist, "This...this is..."

Master Niu gasped in astonishment. "This is a demon-revealing mirror! Master Yideng, you actually managed to refine the legendary demon-revealing mirror!"

Xia Linyin waved her hand, and her face appeared on the mirror. "Master Niu, do you still remember me?"

Master Niu frowned, feeling that Xia Linyin seemed vaguely familiar, but he couldn't quite place her.

Xia Linyin chuckled, "I am the ghost mirror of the Xia family!"

Upon hearing Xia Linyin's words, Master Niu immediately remembered that she was the large mirror that he had taken back and then returned to the Xia family. He felt that the mirror was a bit prickly, so he invited Master Yideng to the Xia family.

Unexpectedly, after Master Yideng took this mirror, it was refined into a demon-revealing mirror!

This demon-revealing mirror is indeed a treasure that everyone covets. No matter how powerful the illusion, or how strong the demon or ghost, it will have nowhere to hide in front of the demon-revealing mirror.

"Master Niu, let me tell you, I'm incredibly skilled. Not only can I see through all the phenomena of the world, but also—"

A flame flickered between Xia Linyin's fair fingers.

"See that? This is the Netherworld Fire, but now it not only doesn't harm me, I can use it freely! Amazing, right!"

Xia Linyin played with fire with flair, the ghost fire leaping and dancing between her fingers like a mischievous sprite.

Master Niu watched intently, his mouth agape wide enough to fit an egg.

Yideng flipped the mirror over and walked outside.

"Protest! Protest! I can't see anything like this! You're bullying me again, I hate you so much!"

Xia Linyin reached out her hand, her cold fingers slipping through the fabric and touching a smooth, soft skin.

Wow, her skin is even smoother than a woman's!

Xia Linyin grabbed Yideng's thigh and pinched it hard.

Yideng paused slightly, and Xia Linyin threatened, "I won't say anything. You let me look outside, or else—"
