The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 925

Chapter 925: Chapter 922 Details Chapter 925: Chapter 922 Details While the men surnamed Zhen were talking, Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian had already flown a hundred li. Shen Luo informed Bai Xiaotian of the location of the underwater cave, then sat down at the stern of the boat.

With a flick of his fingers, he once again opened the White Light Curtain, enveloping his figure within.

After completing these preparations, he raised his hand and a flash of golden light passed before him, and a blue ice sculpture appeared out of thin air–it was the frozen Mirror Fiend.

Shen Luo sized up the demon with a glance and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Instead of thawing it out, he placed his hand on its head and began to perform the Technique of Beast Taming and Summoning Spirits.

The Tear Demon in the Ocean Eye was tied to the Snow Soul Pill, and he could not afford to let it go, no matter what. Although the Zhen surnamed man had said that the Tear Demon was only at the Peak Nascent Soul Stage, Shen Luo did not dare to be careless and decided to enslave the Mirror Fiend as a spirit beast and in the process, inquire about the Tear Demon's situation.

As for the Spiritual Materials and treasures within the underwater cave that Zhen surnamed man had talked about, he wasn't particularly interested in them.

Countless black runes shot out from his palm, continually merging into the Mirror Fiend's head.

The Mirror Fiend, completely frozen by the blue ice, could not move; only its eyes could still shift, reflecting a look of pain.

Shen Luo's cultivation level was on par with that of the Mirror Fiend, and his Technique of Taming Beasts and Summoning Spirits was already fully matured. The Mirror Fiend, being restrained by him, found itself at an absolute disadvantage in every aspect.

However, moments later, the Mirror Fiend helplessly surrendered and agreed to become Shen Luo's spirit beast.

Shen Luo refined a Spiritual Communication Seal and embedded it within the Mirror Fiend's body, then waved his hand to dissolve the blue ice around it.

The Mirror Fiend regained its freedom, but its body had been seriously damaged by the cold Qi of the Indigo Blue Sea. Its body was cracked in several places, and the meridians inside were also severely injured, giving it a listless appearance.

Now that the Mirror Fiend was his spirit beast, Shen Luo naturally had to care for it. He placed his hand on it and a stream of pure Mana flowed into the Mirror Fiend's body, swiftly circulating and absorbing all the residual cold Qi.

He didn't stop there but took out a healing Talisman and crushed it. A ball of green light merged into the Mirror Fiend's body.

Traces of green light emerged on the body of the Mirror Fiend, and its wounds quickly began to heal. Its entire body suddenly emitted a bright blue light that was dazzling to behold. Soon, the blue light dimmed and disappeared, revealing a tall woman dressed in a purple skirt, with blue eyes and white hair, her forehead adorned with a Jade Belt inlaid with a Purple Bead, exuding a sense of bewitching charm mixed with a bit of elfin quirkiness.

“Greetings, Master.” The Mirror Fiend looked at Shen Luo with a complex expression, then bowed down gracefully, her voice surprisingly crisp and melodious, like the singing of an oriole.

“No need for such formalities. Although I have taken you as a spirit beast, I won't make undue demands of you. Simply lend me your strength in battle in the future,” Shen Luo comforted her.

With a temperament that was much gentler than that of typical demons, the Mirror Fiend, closely resembling the Human Race, was far more intelligent than ordinary monsters. It usually hid in secluded areas of the Eastern Sea, cultivating in hardship and rarely stirring up trouble. It wouldn't have pursued and killed if not for the repeated intrusion of people like the Zhen surnamed man into her residence.

It was a shame that her fortune was poor. The first time she emerged in over a hundred years, she encountered Shen Luo and was taken as a spirit beast, her heart filled with unspeakable grievance.

“Yes,” she said, much relieved by Shen Luo's words, and complied with a response.

“Let me ask you, what is your relationship with the Tear Demon inside the Ocean Eye? How strong is its cultivation level?” Shen Luo, seeing that the Mirror Fiend had accepted its current situation, quietly nodded and inquired.

Upon hearing this, the Mirror Fiend's expression changed, and she hesitated without speaking.

“What's the matter? Are you unwilling to speak? It seems that you and that Tear Demon are quite close. In that case, I won't force you,” Shen Luo hummed, and his eyes filled with a burst of green light, the circular green rune markings in the depths of his pupils spinning like a whirlwind.

As the Mirror Fiend locked eyes with Shen Luo, her vision immediately started to whirl and spin.

She was shocked and immediately tried to look away, but her eyes had been captured by the green light of the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil, and her body became uncontrollable, unable to move in the slightest.

Shen Luo activated the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil and his pupils suddenly flashed with countless changing visions, rapidly moving as if in a kaleidoscope.

The Mirror Fiend's face struggled for a few moments, but soon it became expressionless, as though she had turned into a puppet.

Upon seeing this, Shen Luo felt a surge of silent joy in his heart.

He had just activated the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil's soul-bewitching technique, and indeed, its power was immense, subduing the Mirror Fiend, whose cultivation was not beneath his own, in the blink of an eye.

“What about that Tear Demon's cultivation level?” he quickly gathered his thoughts and asked.

“She… just now… advanced… to the Great Mahayana Stage… and is consolidating her cultivation level…” The Mirror Fiend spoke in a flat tone, with lifeless eyes, mechanically.

“Already advanced to the Great Mahayana Stage!” Shen Luo's eyebrows twitched, yet he wasn't too concerned.

With his current cultivation level, coupled with several treasure items on him, he feared not even a Great Mahayana Stage Cultivator, especially with Yuan Qiu and Bai Xiaotian to assist him.

“What is your relationship with that Tear Demon?” He continued to inquire.

“I and the Tear Demon… are old acquaintances… Since our youth, we hid and cultivated… within a seabed cave… as close as sisters…” The Mirror Fiend said indifferently.

“Which Divine Powers does the Tear Demon excel in? Does she have any formidable methods?” Shen Luo muttered to himself, wondering, and then pressed on with his questioning.

“She is adept in water-attribute ice Divine Powers… the Tear Demon is formed from resentment… Her tears contain strong resentful Qi… Those struck by them will experience mental confusion, falling into madness…” the Mirror Fiend stated woodenly.

“Tears? Resentful Qi?” Shen Luo's face showed a strange expression.

Earlier, the store owner at One Medicine House had mentioned the Tear Demon Pearl, referring to a kind of bead formed from the tears of a Tear Demon. Unexpectedly, the tears also contained resentful Qi that could drive a person into madness.

As for the Tear Demon's ice Divine Powers, he wasn't particularly concerned, being in possession of the unique skills of the Indigo Blue Sea.

He asked a few more questions about the Tear Demon, as well as the Mirror Fiend's own Divine Powers, before he withdrew the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil.

“What have you done to me?” The wooden look in the Mirror Fiend's eyes dispersed quickly, returning to clarity as she frantically asked, seemingly not remembering what had just transpired.

“No need to ask what I did,” Shen Luo said nonchalantly, simply instructing her, “Just stay aside.”

Now under his control, the Mirror Fiend could only stand anxiously to one side.

Just at this moment, the white Protective Cover surrounding him suddenly vibrated.

Shen Luo gestured, dissolving the white Protective Cover around him, to see Bai Xiaotian standing outside.

“Brother Shen, we have arrived at the location of that seabed cave,” Bai Xiaotian said, glancing at the Mirror Fiend with some surprise before speaking to Shen Luo.

Shen Luo nodded and looked down toward the sea area, dispersing his Divine Sense, probing the seabed.

The situation on the seabed here was extremely complex, with ocean trenches and ridges everywhere; he could not immediately find the location of the Ocean Eye, indicating that the place must be very well hidden.

He didn't bother to search laboriously and turned to the Mirror Fiend at his side, saying, “Lead the way.”

With no other choice, the Mirror Fiend leaped into the sea and dived towards the seabed.

Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian put away the flying boat and followed.

The two men and the fiend quickly dived to the seabed, to a remote seabed fissure where it was pitch black, and one could hardly see much of a distance.

The Mirror Fiend's figure flickered and she slipped into it, vanishing into the darkness.
