Chapter 469: Snow on the Mountain, Bright Candles in the South 29

Yuan Ying never thought that the one who caused such a big commotion last night was actually his own apprentice.

When they were discussing matters just now, the sect master said to him solemnly, "I'm afraid a great demon has ascended to heaven this time, and it has already ascended. We don't know whether it is good or evil, so we must be more careful and let the disciples who go out to train be more cautious. I will go and meet with the other sect masters and heads to see if they have any ideas."

He did ascend successfully, but he was not a great demon, but his troublesome little disciple.

Mingnan was still talking nonstop. When she mentioned Taotie, she couldn't help but say with regret: "Master, you don't know, Taotie's meat is really fragrant. I was so hungry at the time that I really wanted to have a bite when I smelled it."

"Puff——cough cough cough cough——" Yuan You, who was drinking tea, spit out tea when he heard this.

Fortunately, He Yunfei was quick-witted and saw that something was wrong so he covered his face and pushed him aside, successfully avoiding the fate of being sprayed in the face.

Yuan Ying glared at Yuan You, "How can you be so reckless?"

Mingnan blinked and joked, "Drink slowly, Senior Brother, you are so old, how can you choke like this just by drinking tea?"

Yuan You: “…”

He glared at Mingnan dimly, "Don't say such disgusting things next time."

"How can I be disgusted by it!" Mingnan was dissatisfied. "You will know if you smell it. It smells really good!"

Yuan You pinched his brows and said, "That's not necessary."

Suddenly, Yuan Ying stood up.

He subconsciously dodged to the side and asked doubtfully, "Master, I didn't spray you."

Yuan Ying lowered her eyes and looked at him like a fool, then turned around with a look of disgust and took out a sound transmission note, "Sect Master, I already know the whole story of what happened last night. The Taotie who was undergoing the tribulation is dead. There is no need to panic. You can come back."

After he finished speaking, he pinched his hand, and the sound transmission note immediately turned into a paper crane, flapping its wings and flew out.

Yuan Ying turned back and looked at the ancient mirror in Mingnan's hand, "Is this what you dug out from the ground?"

Mingnan immediately handed it to him with both hands, "I didn't dig it out. It flew out by itself. It was not damaged by three thunderbolts at the same time. I thought it had an extraordinary origin, so I brought it back. Master, please take a look."

Yuan Ying took it and examined it carefully, looking at both sides. His eyes fell on the particularly dark pattern and paused for a moment, "Is this blood?"

"It must have been rubbed on by the blood on my hands at the time."

"Then why doesn't it recognize you as its master?" He Yunfei was quite puzzled.

Mingnan pinched his chin, thinking: "Maybe it's because I already have Wanyue, or maybe it doesn't want to?"

Yuan You nodded after thinking about it: "A magic weapon is born from nature and it is rare to see one in a thousand years. It has intelligence at birth, so it is normal that it is unwilling to share a master with other magic weapons. It seems that all the powerful people who have ascended to heaven throughout the ages have only one magic weapon."

"No, this is not a magic weapon, it's a magic weapon."

"Ah?!" Mingnan and the other two looked over at the same time.

Mingnan was at a loss, "What's the difference?"

Yuan Ying sat down at the table again and was about to speak when Gu Jing suddenly trembled.

He subconsciously let go, and the ancient mirror immediately flew in front of Mingnan's eyes and turned around.

Mingnan: “???”

205: [Huh? Why does the ancient mirror seem a little angry? ]

He Yunfei said hesitantly, "It seems a little unhappy."

"Ah?" Mingnan blinked innocently. He stretched out his hand and just touched the mirror. The lotus inside immediately closed its petals, looking angry.

205: [I don’t want to open it anymore.jpg]

"Heh." Yuan Ying laughed, "I guess she thought you were going to give it away, so she got angry."

Mingnan immediately clasped his hands together and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, but I really didn't mean to give you away, don't be angry."

The lotus quietly let go of a petal, as if peeking, and after a while it bloomed again.

Mingnan understood and spread out her hand with her palm facing up, and the ancient mirror immediately fell into her palm.

She wiped the mirror carefully, but Lotus dodged left and right to avoid her touching it, which made her laugh and cry.

He Yunfei said with emotion: "It's very spiritual. No wonder people all over the world are so eager to get magical weapons."

Yuan Ying nodded, "Most divine weapons are sharp, but divine tools are different. Most of them have no offensive power, but they have their own strengths. For example, the ancient mirror in your hand, according to what you said, this mirror may be able to predict the future."

"I once saw an ancient secret book in the library of Chengtian Sect. Because it is too old, many parts have been lost. One page of the painting is missing, but the page next to it records a divine artifact called the Samsara Mirror. It was lost when the ancient gods fell during the first war between the gods and its whereabouts are unknown."

Mingnan was startled, his eyes slightly widened, and he raised the ancient mirror in his hand and said, "Is this it?"

The lotus flew to the center of the mirror, stretched out its petals and trembled, as if to agree: Yes, it's me.

Mingnan was amused by it and poked the center of the flower, "You are quite proud."

Lotus retreated suddenly as if it was itchy.

"The Samsara Mirror, as the name suggests, can see a person's reincarnation?" Mingnan looked at Yuan Ying.

"The secret book states that the Samsara Mirror can be used to view past lives and future lives. However, past lives and present lives are all secrets of heaven and cannot be revealed without permission. Therefore, if you want to open the Samsara Mirror, you must use the essence and blood of the person viewing the mirror as a guide and inject a large amount of spiritual power into it before the mirror can be opened. The more you see, the greater the price you pay. Some people even have to pay the price of their cultivation and their lives."

He Yunfei and Yuan You looked at Mingnan and asked worriedly, "How much have you seen?"

"Don't be nervous. I didn't intend to look at it. It showed up on its own after the blood was applied. It was just the little bit I just mentioned."

He Yunfei finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted her shoulder in frustration, "Be careful next time. Don't touch or rub anything with blood on your hands."

"I know—"

Before Mingnan finished his words, the Samsara Mirror flew out and knocked He Yunfei's hand away.

He Yunfei: “???”

Yuan You was also stunned, "This little mirror is quite protective of her shortcomings."

"It's not the mirror that protects its own shortcomings, it's the spirit in the mirror that protects its own shortcomings." Yuan Ying said: "I guess it's because the first person it saw after it was born was Mingnan, and it was Mingnan who helped it when it was overcoming the tribulation. So even though it didn't recognize Mingnan as its master, it regarded her as one of its own."

"Then I am not an outsider either!" He Yunfei pointed at the mirror dissatisfiedly and said, "This is my junior sister."

The Samsara Mirror immediately turned back and faced her with its back.

He Yunfei made it laugh out of anger.

"What I have said before is actually just one of the uses of the Samsara Mirror. The truly terrifying thing about the Samsara Mirror is that it can not only see the past and the future, but also go back to the past and the future."

"Go back to the future?" Mingnan was stunned. "Wouldn't that mean we can change our fate?"

"Otherwise, why did three heavenly thunderbolts strike it at the same time? The greater the ability, the greater the heavenly tribulation." Yuan Ying glanced at the Samsara Mirror meaningfully, "You thought the heavenly tribulation last night was directed at Taotie, but I'm afraid it wasn't."

"The Taotie uses it, so how do we know it's not using the Taotie?"

Mingnan suddenly realized, pointed at the mirror and said, "I didn't realize you were such a black-hearted person."
