The person in the mirror exuded power, and the power of the Xuanbing Mirror rapidly gathered behind her.
A pair of wings grew from her back, completely enveloping her. One side of the wings was white, and the other side was black, corresponding to light and shadow.
Her power erupted completely, and hundreds of Xuanbing Mirrors reappeared out of thin air.
With the wings, the person in the mirror increased their speed several times over, and in the blink of an eye, they were in front of Ruan Xiyan.
Seeing her attack coming, Ruan Xiyan met it head-on, blocked the attack, and then swung the Glazed Demon Flame in her hand.
Just as the Glazed Demon Flame reached her, she dodged into the Mystic Ice Mirror.
Ruan Xiyan shattered the Xuanbing Mirror in front of her, and an attack came from the Xuanbing Mirror behind her.
The person in the mirror appeared silently behind Ruan Xiyan and launched an attack on her.
But it was as if Ruan Xiyan had eyes in the back of her head, and she unleashed her power to attack the Xuanbing Mirror behind her.
Only shards of mirror remained on the ground, and the figure in the mirror was nowhere to be seen. She retreated back into the Xuanbing Mirror.
"Why don't you guess which Mystic Ice Mirror I'm hiding in?" The person in the mirror, relying on his ability to freely move through the Mystic Ice Mirror and dodge attacks, opened his mouth to provoke Ruan Xiyan.
"If I guess wrong, my power will increase by one point for every Xuanbing Mirror you break. Isn't this game fun?"
In an instant, Ruan Xiyan's figure was reflected on the surface of all the Xuanbing Mirrors.
Ruan Xiyan stood there, as if looking in a mirror, but she knew very well that the person in the mirror was not her, but a fake person in the mirror.
While keeping a wary eye on the person in the mirror who could attack at any moment, Ruan Xiyan pondered a countermeasure.
Suddenly, the figure in the Xuanbing Mirror on the left appeared, and Ruan Xiyan raised her hand to attack.
The Xuanbing Mirror shattered on the ground, but the person inside was completely unharmed. She was incredibly fast, as if she were one with the Xuanbing Mirrors, always managing to sneak into the other Xuanbing Mirrors before she could.
"No matter how strong you are, it's useless if you can't find me. You can only be played with by me like a little mouse."
The person in the mirror spoke smugly, saying that she would slowly exhaust her power and then gradually increase it.
The shattered mirror fragments on the ground transformed into sharp blades, attacking Ruan Xiyan from all directions.
Ruan Xiyan leaped into the air to dodge, with the sharp blade following closely behind.
She suddenly turned and directed the sharp blades toward the giant Xuanbing Mirror in the air. Unsurprisingly, the mirror fragments were absorbed by the barrier outside the Xuanbing Mirror.
If she guessed correctly, as long as she solved this giant ice mirror, she would have passed the test.
However, with her current power, no matter how much force she attacks the giant ice mirror, it will eventually be devoured by it.
To solve the problem of the giant ice mirror, we must start with the person inside it.
"You actually used my power to fight my real body, but your little tricks are no match for me. You're just a clown." The mirror fragments shot out by the person in the mirror flew towards Ruan Xiyan like a rain of arrows.
The power shield that formed in front of Ruan Xiyan blocked all the mirror shards. "Your things are yours, here you go!"
With a backhand flick, the mirror shards shot intact towards the Xuanbing Mirror below, the powerful force piercing through many of the mirrors.
"Let me show you who the real clown is, and who has spun their own cocoon." Ruan Xiyan curled her red lips.
Snow falls and frost forms! The polar regions are frozen solid!
Ruan Xiyan formed a hand seal, and an ice lotus flower bloomed from her hands, while snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
She clenched her fist tightly, shattering the ice lotus. An extreme chill swept around, covering the surface of the Xuanbing Mirror with a thick layer of frost.
At the same time, Ruan Xiyan's dark eyes turned into an eerie blood red.
Her gaze swept across the temporarily sealed ice mirrors, where a figure moved back and forth.
The frost slowed down the person in the mirror, and with Ruan Xiyan's blood-red eyes, she immediately spotted the person's figure in the Xuanbing Mirror.
Found it!
A crystal-clear demonic flame appeared in Ruan Xiyan's hand, and she placed her other hand on her chest, feeling the power emanating from there.
The flames shone brighter, and the power emanating from them grew stronger and stronger.
"go."
The Glazed Demon Flame condensed into a flying black phoenix, emitting a heart-stirring phoenix cry, and swooped down towards the Xuanbing Mirror on the ground.
At the moment of the collision, flames shot into the sky.
The ancient city of Xuanbing, formed from Xuanbing ice, slowly melted away under the power of the Glazed Demon Flame.
The woman in the mirror, who was initially full of confidence, tried to dodge, but she couldn't escape from the black phoenix's watchful eye until it came right in front of her.
"Ah—no!!"
As the figure in the mirror let out a shrill scream, cracks gradually appeared on the giant Xuanbing Mirror suspended in the air, and the cracks continued to widen.
Ruan Xiyan wouldn't give it a chance to repair itself, adhering to the idea of taking advantage of its illness to kill it.
Countless attacks were unleashed at the location of the person in the mirror.
When the person in the mirror completely disappeared, the giant ice mirror shattered into pieces, and everything around returned to calm.
Ruan Xiyan clapped her hands, finally she was completely dead.
The entire Xuanbing Ancient City began to evaporate into smoke, and Ruan Xiyan returned to the Nine Nether Mystic Tree.
At this moment, the branches and leaves of the Nine Nether Mystic Tree swayed and shook, and a green bud of the Mystic Branch fell from the top of the tree and slowly floated towards Ruan Xiyan.
Ruan Xiyan reached out her hand, and the fluttering Xuanzhi buds automatically fell into her palm.
Looking at the Xuanzhi sprout in her hand, Ruan Xiyan's eyes lit up with joy; she had obtained another spiritual herb.
Lan Zhou walked up from behind, "It seems that Miss Ruan has completed the test of the Nine Nether Mystic Tree, which is why she was able to receive the Mystic Branch Bud bestowed by the Nine Nether Mystic Tree."
"Congratulations, Miss Ruan, on achieving your goal." Lan Wang said happily, "Although we have only known each other for a short time, my intuition tells me that you can definitely do it."
"Miss Ruan, would you be interested in staying with my demon clan? My demon clan would very much welcome an outstanding genius like you," Lan Zhou extended an olive branch.
He wanted to try recruiting a ninth-grade alchemist.
"Although our demon race is not as powerful as the gods and demons, we are not bad either. We have a place on the Nine Provinces Continent and are a powerful force that can speak for itself."
“As an ascended being, Miss Ruan is alone and helpless on the Nine Provinces Continent. If you stay with my demon clan, my demon clan can become your support.”
“Miss Ruan, my brother is right. Why don’t you stay? Miss Ruan and I are kindred spirits, and we can even spar and fight each other when we have time,” Lan Wang tried his best to persuade her.
"Although the gods and demons are powerful, neither is as easy to get along with as our demon race. They look down on those who ascend from lower-level continents."
"We will not easily accept outsiders. If Miss Ruan wants a place to belong, our demon race is the best choice for her."
