Apart from possessing the authority of a god and becoming an authoritative relic, the Daynight Realm was also a Philosopher's Stone left behind after the Ascendant had fallen.
It preserved all the miracles and Sacred Marks of the Path of Transformation, as well as the complete power of the Black God and the White God.
If a newly ascended person could pass the test of the secret ritual and obtain the Origin Substance, they would be qualified to once again step onto this severed path and inherit this power and hatred.
This was the last ray of hope and turning point.
"Unfortunately, the more intelligent one is, the more difficult this test is."
Russell sighed. "The more intelligent one's mind is, the more ideas one has, the easier it is to fall into madness … … Only fools and schemers can reach the end of this path."
"If you ask me, Katja is sometimes soft-hearted. No, I should say that she trusts her students too much, right?"
Completely disregarding the possibility that the person himself might be listening and gossiping behind someone else's back, he was beaming with joy. "Even if she looks very serious and always unreasonable, in reality, as long as someone acts coquettishly, she is completely helpless with the child … Whether it's Isaac or Anna, it's the same.
Isaac did it because of his longing for teacher, while Anna instinctively wanted to follow in her parents' footsteps … … These are not rational decisions and should be stopped. "
He shrugged and sighed helplessly. "Unfortunately, she always respects her students' choices too much."
Huai Shi glanced at him. "You should learn from her and respect me a little, okay?"
"I won't."
Russell's refusal was righteous, causing Huai Shi to grit his teeth in anger.
"For someone like you, once you relax even a little, you'll definitely become a salted fish at the speed of light. In less than half a year, the Ivory Tower will be crowned this year's Astronomy Conference's Trash of the Year."
Russell sighed with emotion. "Teacher is doing this for your own good!"
I'm doing this for your own good. The child is still young.
Huai Shi glanced at Russell's neck, intending to fast-forward to the next sentence.
— — Everyone died.
Unfortunately, the success rate was not high, so he could only regretfully give up.
There was still plenty of time in the future … …
The Book of Destiny silently bore a grudge.
With Russell's help and the information that Alexis told him, Huai Shi finally understood. "So, Anna became like this because something went wrong when she used it to advance?"
"Yeah." Russell said, "Everything was going well in the beginning, but at the end, she looked up at the mirror — or rather, when she had the thought of looking, she had already seen it.
No one could stop him even if they wanted to. "
"Didn't Catherine the Great tell her about the risks inside?" Huai Shi frowned. "Why would she want to see it?"
"Because in the mirror, you can see a temptation that you can't resist …"
Russell shook his head. "Think about it. You are a talented and intelligent little girl. You have both parents, a happy family, and a promising future. Suddenly, one day, everything was gone.
You only have yourself left. You have to inherit the hatred and pain they left behind, and step on the path forward … At this time, a magic mirror from a fairy tale suddenly appears in front of you.
What will you see in it? "
Huai Shi was silent and speechless.
"Not to mention a little girl, it's the same for anyone." Russell sighed with pity. "No matter how calm and dangerous it is, even if you know it's fake, who can resist not looking at it?"
With that, he patted Huai Shi's shoulder and was full of curiosity. "To be honest, I'm looking forward to what you will see."
"Since it's so dangerous, why should I go and see it?!"
Seeing that his fox tail had finally revealed itself, Huai Shi was furious. He felt that he could finish eight bowls of turtle soup in one go.
"Of course, it's because you have the means to defeat it."
Russell answered matter-of-factly. "Among the people I know, only you have such qualifications and talents. Huai Shi, only you can bring back the other half of her soul."
After a subtle pause, his smile became more cheerful. "At the same time, it's up to you whether I can bring the Day-Night Mirror and Celestial genealogy's Armory home!"
When Huai Shi finally couldn't help but pull out his knife and slash at his old face, he found that the old turtle in front of him disappeared like a phantom. Behind him, the elevator door finally opened, revealing darkness.
In the empty hall, a strange silhouette vaguely appeared in the distance.
Like a vortex interwoven by invisible shadows, people couldn't help but slide their eyes to the center … It made people want to see clearly what was there!
The door opening attack came suddenly.
Huai Shi instantly covered his face and closed his eyes.
Don't look!
Then, he frantically hit the elevator button with one hand, but the elevator seemed to have fallen into silence and didn't respond at all.
Only the premonition of death was getting stronger and stronger.
In his intuition, it was as if he could feel the invisible things brewing in the darkness growing rapidly. Countless strands of viciousness and fanaticism turned into substance, forming tentacles that stretched toward Huai Shi little by little.
Even under the suppression and seal of the Holy Coffin, the Day-Night Mirror was still constantly hunting down every soul that dared to step into its domain!
In the solidified air, Huai Shi almost couldn't breathe.
He felt as if he had fallen into the deep sea, gradually suffocating under the crazily rising water pressure.
But soon, the terrifying pressure disappeared without a trace in an instant.
A helpless sigh came from behind Huai Shi.
"Sigh, silly boy …"
Tongi!
"You're finally willing to show up!"
Instantly, Huai Shi was overjoyed. She turned around to look behind her, but there was no sign of the evil woman behind her. Instead, there was only an empty elevator.
And the smooth mirror-like surface of the elevator.
Huai Shi's startled face was projected on the mirror, and then, a mocking smile gradually appeared.
"Hello, Virgin Mary! Are you surprised? "
The other Huai Shi said happily, "What, at this time, you still want a woman who treats you as a tool to save you? That's really outrageous. "
Huai Shi's vision went black.
Damn, why does an authoritative relic have so many tricks up its sleeve!
"Oh, now do you think the authoritative relic is tricking you?"
In the projection, Huai Shi leaned on the door and looked at his expression as if he had seen a ghost, "And why didn't Russell tell you this key information?
No way, no way? Don't tell me there's anyone who thinks that old thing Russell would really trust someone else? "
"Don't joke around, Huai Shi, he's using you!"
The mirror emerged from the mirror, leaned out, and bent down to look at his face in mid-air, "Look, a good tool, a pure and silly child. Since birth, you've been used by others until now. Who doesn't like you?
Fu Yi, who treats you as a trash can of negative energy? Ai Qing, who treats you as a consumable? As long as she pretends to be delicate and pitiful, you'll rush forward regardless of your own safety? Luo Xian, who doesn't even know what love is?
Or, Tongi, who hasn't told you what her purpose is until now? "The mirror asked doubtfully." Huai Shi, why do you always have unrealistic expectations of people? "
"…"
In a short silence, Huai Shi slowly raised his hand and said seriously, "Sorry to interrupt you, can I ask you a question?"
"Go ahead."
The mirror tilted its head, took out a cigarette from its pocket, rubbed its hands and lit it, then blew a puff of smoke in his face, "Do you still think I'll be kind enough to answer your doubts?"
"No, I'm just curious."
Huai Shi said, "If you are me, then I should also be you … If I'm in a split state now, then you should also be a part of 'Huai Shi'."
"So, we should both know each other's nature."
He hammered his palm and asked curiously,
"— Then why do you think I'll take your bullshit seriously?"
The mirror was stunned, but saw Huai Shi reach out and smoothly take the cigarette from the corner of his mouth. He took two puffs and didn't feel any difference in the taste.
He took out another pack from his pocket and looked at the mirror's pocket.
"Wow, one pack turned into two!"
Huai Shi exclaimed, "Can the things inside be taken out?"
"Are you still dreaming at this time, Huai Shi?"
The mirror sneered and glanced at his naive look, "Don't you know it clearly in your heart? The moment you saw the Day-Night Mirror, you were already in a split state.
It doesn't matter who comes, Luo Su will kick you into the pit, and from then on, you can only sleep forever … … And Luo Su will take your hard work, the results of your hard work, and finally wait for you to die. At your funeral, he will shed two drops of fake tears, take your Book of Destiny, and succeed in rebuilding the Kingdom of Heaven's lineage. "
He paused for a moment, leaned closer, and whispered in Huai Shi's ear, "So, think about it yourself —"
The mirror took a deep breath and roared,
"— Are you a f * cking idiot?!"
"If I'm an idiot, what are you?" Huai Shi rolled his eyes and was unmoved, "You're so smart, so powerful, and so loud. Are you especially looking forward to me refuting you?"
"Why do I f * cking share the same origin as an idiot like you? Do you think I want to? If you didn't overestimate yourself and take that damn thing, would I have run out like this? "
"Let me guess?"
Huai Shi smoked the cigarette he snatched from the mirror, "According to the conventional plot, only one of us can walk out in one piece, right?"
"If you're so smart, why don't you guess? It's clearly a simple condition, but why do ten out of ten people who take the mirror become idiots after they go out?"
The mirror roared in Huai Shi's ear at the top of his voice, "Because I don't want to!!! Listen carefully, old man! You! Won't! Will! Will! "
"You don't listen, as expected of me!" Huai Shi clapped his hands in appreciation, "In other words, there's no other solution, right?"
The mirror sneered, "If you kneel down and beg me, I can consider it."
"Kowtow to myself in front of the mirror? I don't think I'm that narcissistic, am I? "
Huai Shi laughed, flicked the last of the cigarette ash, and stamped it out under his feet, "Let me ask you, if I let you go out, what will you get rid of?"
"Of course, I'll abandon evil and promote good, and be a new person!"
The mirror solemnly promised, but before he finished, he was amused, "Do you believe me when I say that? Come on, Huai Shi, why do you have to be so bitchy to yourself?
Don't you know what you're thinking? Don't you ever have those thoughts that even you are afraid of and spurn? "
He put his hand on Huai Shi's shoulder and whispered in his ear, "There are so many good opportunities to make a move, but you missed them. Don't you ever regret it?
Imagine, as long as you say you want, they will give you whatever you want … No matter how obscene your thoughts are, they can easily be realized. As long as you operate it well, two, three, or even four will not be a problem!
In addition, the power you deserve, the wealth you should have … Think about how many things you have missed, Huai Shi, Huai Shi, Huai Shi, I'm also Huai Shi, why can't you give me the things you don't want? Why can't I be satisfied when you are enduring? "
"I also have a lot of principles to tell you, but you will definitely scoff at them."
Huai Shi shook his head indifferently and raised his eyes, "So, why don't we skip the nonsense stage and use our skills to see the truth?"
He said, "Right here, let's decide who is the real Huai Shi."
"Good idea!"
The mirror image opened his arms and laughed. He took a step back, and his smile became as ferocious as the original. "But, why do you think that I am the only mirror image here?"
At that moment, Huai Shi heard a voice from behind him.
Holy light emerged, separating the world of nothingness from the darkness.
Under the blessing of thousands of rays of glorious light, it was as if a god had sent down a clone.
A familiar figure walked out of the light. He looked down at Huai Shi and the mirror image with pity in his eyes.
It was as if he was looking at some incombustible garbage, full of regret and regret.
"— You, repent!"
