Chapter 520: The World in the Mirror (10)
Yu Beiming turned his eyes and saw the piece of his home in the mirrors that were as small as grains of sand.
Lao Qiu put his old face in front of the mirror and muttered to himself: "What is in the mirror? Why hasn't my mirror changed at all? Oh, Master is really so stupid, why didn't he let me go? He made me anxious all night."
Zheng Lanxin's voice came from outside: "You've been staring at the mirror all night, and you can't see anything even if you look again. Come out for a midnight snack. I made your favorite spicy oil noodles."
"Noodles with spicy oil? Here it comes, here it comes!"
Lao Qiu put down the mirror and left happily. As for the safety of his master, he had to eat his fill before he had the energy to care about him.
Because the flow of time here is slowed down by 24 times, everything in the real world, when projected into the mirror world, becomes slow motion.
As for the sound, it is completely isolated.
Yu Beiming tried to raise his hand to touch the mirror, but as soon as he touched the mirror, it turned into a point of light and merged into the many mirrors.
He keenly noticed that cracks appeared on several mirrors.
The mirror in Bai Jun's house is one of them.
But why did cracks suddenly appear in the mirror?
The power of the barrier here should be condensed by the mirror world itself, and there has been no problem for more than two thousand years. Why is it happening now?
At this moment, Yu Beiming seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around, barely avoiding a fatal move. Then a beam of light hit the barrier, and a crack appeared on one of the millions of mirrors.
Yu Beiming looked up and saw that the Dragon Emperor who had been following him had returned to the shore.
The Jiao Emperor was looking at him coldly, with a hint of regret in his tone: "I didn't expect you to be on guard against me at a time like this. I almost, I almost killed you!"
Yu Beiming walked slowly towards the shore, seemingly not surprised at all:
"It turns out that you are harboring evil intentions. The cracks in the mirror were caused by you. Why did you do this? You have been the overlord of the mirror world for more than 2,000 years. Why would you attack people in the real world?"
"Why?" Jiao Di sneered, "You can see that this world is just a small piece. The sea, the blue sky, and even the sun, moon, and stars are all fake. Of course, you will get bored if you stay here for a long time! Just like when I was cultivating in the deep mountains and old forests, no matter how peaceful that piece of heaven and earth was, there would be a day when I would get bored."
"And the world outside is changing with each passing day. I can only watch but cannot touch it! Of course I am unwilling to accept this. Why? Such a wonderful world can only belong to humans."
"Humans..." He licked the corner of his mouth, "Those weak humans are only fit to be food for the demons. How can they rule this world?"
"Yu Beiming, you are really stupid! You are so powerful, as long as you wave your hand, the whole world is at your fingertips."
"But you, after destroying those foreign demons, actually abandoned our beautiful country and walked away? Throughout history, countless people and demons have fought and shed blood for territory and power. How could you not want to do that?"
"You don't want it, you are too noble, if you don't want it, I want it!"
"Before, because of Guarding Longshan, because of you, the master of the mountain! I had to hide in the mirror world."
"But so many years have passed, and all those great demons that destroyed the world have died, and even Shoulong Mountain has fallen. No one mentions your achievements back then, and it's as if you disappeared from this world and never appeared again."
"And it's time for me to be born!"
"For so many years, in order to let our people maintain their blood and not forget the original intention of trampling humans under their feet, I even spent a hundred years of hard work to refine puppets. I let these people become pets, playthings, and food for monsters!"
"Unfortunately, no matter how similar the person in the mirror is, he is not the real person after all. If we want to truly enslave mankind, we must break out of the mirror world!"
"I spent another hundred years, constantly using my power to erode the barrier, and finally... the barrier loosened. My power can affect the real world, and I can even bring my people out in full force if I want."
"For safety reasons, I didn't send out all of my forces at once. Instead, I carefully tested the situation to see if there were any strong people among humans who could be our enemies. Is Shoulong Mountain still here? Is you, Master Yu, still here?"
"Finally, you really showed up! After all these years, you are still alive!"
At this point, he suddenly laughed again: "It's a pity that you are still too naive. You easily believed my disguise and followed me here."
"You're a hero. I wanted you to die a quick death."
"I didn't expect you to still be on guard against me."
Yu Beiming said: "You are indeed pretending to be perfect, but sometimes being too perfect can also be a flaw."
"Back then, you intended to dominate the world in the chaos. Even after you established the mirror world, you did not forget to shape yourself into a great demon who ruled the world. This shows how ambitious you are. Ambitious people, whether human or demon, will not be willing to be inferior to others."
The Jiao Emperor asked, "Since you don't trust me, why do you dare to follow me here?"
Yu Beiming said: "How can I see your trump card and find the enchantment if I don't come here?"
Yu Beiming had reached the junction of the sea and the shore. When he was about to step ashore, he was blocked by a powerful formation and could not step ashore at all.
The Jiao Emperor laughed loudly: "Now that you are here, don't even think about leaving! Why do you think I led you here? It's because I have set up a fairy trap here!"
"Do you know the origin of this formation? When I first created this world, I worried day and night, fearing that you would find it and destroy everything I worked so hard to build."
"So I prepared for a rainy day and set up the Immortal Trapping Formation early on. In the years that followed, I continued to explore and improve it. Once the formation is set up, you will be tortured by your own inner demons until you die."
"Master Mountain Master, just enjoy yourself. I will lead all the demons to take over the real world. Without you, those powerless humans will soon become our slaves and food."
"You are just dreaming!" A sneering voice suddenly came from behind.
"Who?" The Jiao Emperor turned around and saw an old palace maid walking out from the royal demon guards.
Behind her, dozens of royal demon guards collapsed and died.
The old face swayed like water waves, revealing its true appearance. It turned out to be a young and beautiful woman, but she exuded the aura of a powerful semi-immortal.
With every step she took, the bells on her wrists tinkled pleasantly.
