Broken mirror to practice Taoism

"It's me." Xue Yuandao's voice came directly from his mind, "I cast a spell on your knife, and my aura can be transmitted to your surroundings through it."

Ergou thought for a moment, but did not answer.

"What are you thinking?" Xue Yuandao's voice came from the knife.

"I didn't think about anything." Ergou said, walking towards the sword in the center as he spoke, feeling a faint pain in his chest every step he took.He didn't suffer any harm, the aura from Xue Yuandao's knife completely enveloped him, and the knife energy outside whizzed past, but none of it could touch him.

Even the bloody wounds on his hands gradually scabbed over.Every time Ergou sells a step, he can see a picture flashing in front of him.He couldn't see himself, but he felt very painful, his whole body was cut, there was no intact skin, even his eyes were bleeding, and even one eye was already invisible.

Death, isn't it that far away?

Such a sentence suddenly came to mind, and Ergou came back to his senses.He has already walked in front of this sword. It is a blood-red sword with a dragon coiled on the hilt. The part where the hilt and the sword body connect has the appearance of auspicious clouds. There are some small words engraved on the body of the sword. Ergou couldn't read it, but thought it was very beautiful.

"Ergou, have you thought about its name?"

Er Gou looked at the sword in front of him, and couldn't help but like it.It was as if a long-lost partner had suddenly returned to him.

"Think about it, master." Ergou said, reaching out to hold the hilt of the sword, "Let's call it 'Shiying'."

The moment Ergou's hand touched the real shadow, the whole body of the sword reacted, and the surrounding sword energy instantly gathered together, forming an invisible sword.Behind the sword, a stone servant suddenly appeared. The stone servant held the sword, and the surrounding blood-red sea water slowly receded.

The moment the stone maid held the sword, he rushed towards Ergou.Er Gou's bloody hand just merged with the real shadow, and the dragon's scales coiled on the real shadow's hilt slowly flowed blood-red streamer.

—to survive.

— must live.

Ergou looked at the stone maid in front of him, and these two sentences came to mind.No one will come to help me. If I want to survive, I can only rely on myself.If you are not strong enough, you will die.

As long as that's it.

In an instant, the indifference in Ergou's eyes faded away, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.He was obviously not injured, but he felt the pain of being cut by a knife all over his body.

——No one wants you to live, if you want to live, you have to rely on yourself.

One sentence filled Ergou's mind, heart and lungs, and he could clearly feel his flesh and blood boiling.The stone servant in front of him was not frightened by the murderous look in Ergou's eyes, and rushed towards him.Ergou used the aura around him to drive him to turn around, and he got behind the stone servant in a moment, but the stone servant immediately reacted and slammed into Ergou directly with his body.Ergou was knocked out several hundred meters, hit a rock, spat out a mouthful of blood, and immediately got up from the ground again.

"That's amazing." Ergou was laughing.

He can still laugh when he meets an opponent who wants to understand his own life.Er Gou wiped away the blood left on the corner of his mouth, turned the real shadow in his hand around, did not give the stone servant a chance to come in front of him, and directly bumped into the stone servant from before.

The moment he hit it, Ergou felt that all his bones were shattered, and it hurt so much but he couldn't make a sound.Ergou looked at the stone servant, the sword in his hand collided with the sword condensed with sword energy in the stone servant's hand, whoever took a step back would lose.

Just when Er Gou gathered all the aura around him to defeat the stone servant in one fell swoop, Xue Yuandao suddenly embraced him.The moment the void in Xue Yuandao's hand touched the stone servant, the stone servant immediately became shattered, and even the sword formed by the condensed sword energy was chopped into pieces by the void, and could no longer be condensed into shape.

It was just a moment, but Ergou was stunned.

"Ergou..." Xue Yuandao's voice was very soft, but Ergou could hear every word very clearly, "You don't have to work hard..."

Ergou didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that when Xue Yuandao said this, the hand holding him was a little tighter.

"A teacher will always protect you until the day you don't need to be a teacher."

Ergou was stunned for a moment, and then said casually, "Why would I not want Master? Master, if I disappear one day, it must be because of Master."

—— Ergou, can you blame me as a teacher?

——There is nothing to blame, you are my master, you have the final say on life and death.

Xue Yuandao put Ergou down, "Let's go out."

Xue Yuandao didn't speak any more during this journey, the way to enter the Demon Realm is easy, but the way out of the Demon Realm is much more difficult.When they went out, Ergou realized that Xue Yuandao fell with him at that time, and they really fell into the Demon Realm.On the way back to the Demon Realm, there are not only monsters, but also prisoners of the Demon Race.

No wonder Xue Yuandao looked so embarrassed when he first came out of his state of mind and saw Xue Yuandao.

"Master, you are amazing!"

Looking at the repeat offenders in the demon world along the way, Ergou said with emotion.Although he was not used to Xue Yuandao always protecting him like a child, he had to admit that Xue Yuandao had become the goal of his heart.

"Master, one day, I will become as powerful as you."

——Master, one day, I will become as powerful as you, hehe.

Xue Yuandao turned around suddenly, Ergou was stunned, and immediately stopped in his tracks so as not to bump into Xue Yuandao.Xue Yuandao's eyes were wide open, and he lost the calm look he had seen all along.

"Ergou..." After a while, Xue Yuandao calmed down a little, and said to Ergou, "I don't want you to become powerful as a teacher."

Ergou didn't understand, and tilted his head to look at Xue Yuandao.Doesn't every master hope that his apprentice can become as powerful as himself, so as to inherit his mantle?

"As a teacher, I only hope that you... can live well..."

After Xue Yuandao finished speaking, he sighed heavily, turned around and continued walking forward.Ergou followed Xue Yuandao's footsteps and said as he walked, "Master, I really don't want to live!"

Ergou really couldn't understand why he was such a "want to die" person in Xue Yuandao's heart?

He really didn't want to die, except had to.

The two walked up from the demon world all the way, and all the demons on the way were dealt with by Xue Yuandao, so the two of them walked very easily along the way.After leaving the Demon Realm, Xue Yuandao taught Ergou how to re-seal the seal of the Demon Realm.

"The seal of the devil world is based on five elements, five elements and five places, which are wood, fire, earth, gold, and water, with wood as the source, fire as the source, earth as the nourishment, gold as the system, and water as the moisture. The five elements generate and restrain each other to check and balance the spirit of the devil world." Xue Yuandao looked at the formation and explained to the two dogs, with a hint of joy in his tone, "This is the wooden formation, the source, and the 'mirror' as the magic weapon. We just need to throw the 'mirror' into this formation, and that's it."

"Looking at the mirror?" Er Gou tilted his head and asked.

"Yeah." For some reason, Xue Yuandao frowned, and then slowly explained, "It's a mirror that can predict the future."

Ergou followed Xue Yuandao all the way to Jade City. Xue Yuandao walked in this Jade City, as familiar as Lingyue Mountain.But this is not surprising, after all, Ergou was only 11 years old when he met Xue Yuandao, and Xue Yuandao had already lived for hundreds of years.

He's eaten more salt than he's walked, so that's about it.

In a very inconspicuous house in Yushi City, Xue Yuandao walked in with Ergou.There is a mirror on the dressing table on the second floor of the house. The mirror is completely different from the jade here. It is the only item that has a color other than emerald green.

Xue Yuandao stepped forward to pick up the viewing mirror, and the moment Xue Yuandao picked up the viewing mirror, some pictures gradually appeared on the mirror surface of the viewing mirror.

The screen was filled with smoke, and after a while, the smoke was gradually blown away by the wind, and some figures behind the smoke slowly emerged.There is a person, a woman, although Ergou has only met her once, but she has appeared in Ergou's mind countless times, making Ergou have to wonder if he has fallen into a demon.

And this woman was standing opposite Ergou in the mirror.

"Master, for the good of Master, why don't you go there now?"

"Since you called me Mistress, tell me, do you listen to me or I listen to you?"

Ergou in the mirror slowly drew his sword, dressed in white, and standing behind him were many disciples of Ling Yueshan.And Xun Xun in front of him didn't show any weakness, behind her there was also a group of subordinates from the demon clan, their looks were strange, it was really not good-looking.

"Master, how long do you think it will take for me to defeat you now?"

"You dare not do anything to me." Xun Xun smiled at Er Gou, the purple color reflected her smile, evil and enchanting, "Your master said, he recognized me."

"Yeah..." Ergou paused holding Shiying's hand, then smiled wryly, "Who made you the master's doom?"

"Now that you know, let's back down." Xun Xun said to Ergou, "I only want his life. If you belong to my demon clan, I can give you a way out."

Ergou smiled, and didn't mean to follow Xunxun, the real shadow in his hand had arrived in front of Xunxun at some point.Xun Xun didn't expect that Ergou would move towards her, even if he subconsciously passed by, his cheek was scratched by Ergou's real shadow.Where the real shadow passed by, green liquid flowed down, which was the blood of the demon race.

"Master, master wants me to live or die, that's my master's business. Whether master is infatuated with you or doting on you, that's also my master's business." Ergou held a real shadow and stood firmly in the search for you. In front of Xun, "But I want my master to live."
