"What? What's going on? How did the Queen know the entrance and exit of the passage?" Jasmine's beautiful face was filled with doubt and unease. Her brows were furrowed, her eyes showed anxiety, and she asked in a slightly trembling voice. The others also looked panicked, like fawns lost in a dark forest, their eyes filled with fear and helplessness.
"Look at this mirror, it's so strange. How come it only reflects a person?" The beauty-loving Blue Peacock was the first to notice the anomaly. Her exquisite makeup could not hide the fear on her face. Her eyes were fixed on the mirror, trying to find a solution, her gaze filled with panic.
"Are we trapped inside the mirror?" Lori's cute little face was filled with fear as she clung tightly to her owner, her body trembling slightly.
Mandora hovered in the air, looking down at the panicked fairies and humans, a triumphant smile on her face, her eyes full of mockery, and kindly revealed the truth:
"It was the desires and darkness in your hearts that betrayed you, and that's why you walked right into my trap. Xin Ling hid the entrance on this high cliff, humph, thinking she could fool everyone, but she didn't expect me to find her so easily. Now you are nothing but ants who have walked into my trap."
Upon hearing this, Jianpeng flew into a rage. His once handsome face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple. The veins on his neck bulged as if they were about to burst out of his skin, and his teeth were clenched so hard that they made a grating sound in the quiet environment.
At this moment, Jianpeng was furious and shouted loudly with great displeasure: "Hmph! Mandora, that old witch who has lived for who knows how many years, how dare you still daydream and have delusions here?"
"Why not just smash this broken mirror!" Before the words were even finished, he suddenly raised his hands high, waving them forcefully in the air in a powerful pose. Then, he took a deep breath and shouted the incantation at the top of his lungs: "Ye Luoli Magic, Light Ball!"
In an instant, a sphere of light, radiating dazzling brilliance, rapidly formed in Jianpeng's palm. Jianpeng's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets. His furious gaze was fixed on the mirror before him, filled with resentment and determination.
The next second, without hesitation, he swung his arm and smashed the ball of light containing powerful magic into the mirror.
Upon hearing Jianpeng's merciless insults, Mandora's long-suppressed anger erupted like a volcano. Her previously calm and serene face, tinged with arrogance and smugness, twisted and distorted in an instant, as if cursed by a demon.
She roared furiously, "Mirror Reflection Magic!" Her voice boomed like thunder, echoing through the silent space and making the surrounding air hum.
The ball of light that Jianpeng emitted seemed to be controlled by an invisible, powerful force the instant it touched the mirror. It abruptly changed its trajectory and shot back like a runaway cannonball at an even faster speed than it had come from. The ball of light, carrying a powerful impact and a whistling sound, struck Chen Sisi, who was standing to the side, with perfect accuracy.
Chen Sisi was completely unprepared for this turn of events and had no time to prepare. The ball of light struck her heavily, and she felt an overwhelming force surge through her. She instinctively let out a muffled groan, and her body fell backward uncontrollably.
Her legs seemed to have lost all strength; she staggered back a few steps, finally unable to support herself, and fell heavily to the ground. After the fall, Chen Sisi's face instantly turned deathly pale, her brows furrowing tightly.
His mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to shout but was unable to make a sound due to the pain. He could only make weak gasps. His face was full of pain, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, slid down his cheeks, and dripped onto the cold ground.
Then, the others unleashed their magical skills. Some used ice blades, attempting to cut through the indestructible mirror, their eyes filled with determination; others released the power of fire, hoping to melt the mirror's imprisonment with high temperatures.
Their faces were filled with anxiety; some tried to use magic to fly out of the mirror array, but without exception, all ended in failure. Those magical attacks were like ants trying to shake a tree in front of Mandora's mirror array, instantly neutralized.
Mandora had no desire to continue this endless entanglement with these people. Her brows furrowed, and a hint of impatience flashed in her eyes. She then swung the jade ruyi in her hand, which emitted a faint, cold light, and shouted, "Ye Luoli Magic! Magic Light Reflection Array! Activate it immediately and send them all into that endless mirror space!"
As Mandora uttered the incantation, the previously tranquil mirror array suddenly seemed to be activated, beginning to tremble violently. Immediately afterwards, countless dazzling beams of magical light shot out from the mirror array, hurtling towards the Ye Luoli warriors and fairies like lightning.
The magical lights moved with incredible speed, arriving before the group in the blink of an eye. Faced with this sudden attack, the Ye Luoli warriors unleashed their respective magical skills to try and defend themselves, but unfortunately, the power of the magical lights was simply too great, and they were no match for them.
Cries of alarm rang out as one Ye Luoli warrior and fairy after another was mercilessly swept into the mirror by the demonic light, vanishing without a trace in an instant. Mandora stood there, coldly watching everything unfold before her, a satisfied smile gradually appearing on her lips.
She nodded slightly, muttering to herself, "Hmph! The reason I failed last time was because I underestimated the power you guys could unleash when you're united. But this time it's different. I'm going to separate you all, depriving you of each other's support and reliance. Then, I'll see what you can do to resist me!"
Just as Mandora was speaking triumphantly, everyone below was sucked into the mirror space. Seeing this, Mandora felt even more delighted. Her previously tense face completely relaxed, filled with uncontrollable joy.
After laughing, Mandora didn't stop. She swiftly formed hand seals and chanted incantations, casting another mysterious portal spell. Instantly, a layer of magical light enveloped her like a veil.
Bathed in the dim light, Mandora's figure grew increasingly blurry until she slowly vanished from the spot. Clearly, she had successfully returned to the Yan Hua Mirror Palace, deep within the Fairy Realm, through this magical passage.
Upon returning to the Yan Hua Mirror Palace, Mandora eagerly began working on her next plan. She intended to extract the celestial power from the fairies trapped in the mirror space to open the gate to the human world.
During Wang Mo's teleportation, she was easily rescued by her prince and taken to his palace, Still Lake.
