Xiuxian: But It's Not a Game

Chapter 217 Yin-Yang Divine Mirror
Half an hour later, Lü Sheng reappeared inside the Immortal Pavilion.

He had gone mad at this point, and as soon as he was resurrected, he activated his magic weapon to bombard the outside world.

Three minutes later, the killing began again.

"The lifespan limit for the Qi Refining stage is 300 years. A genius like him has definitely reached the maximum lifespan. He has already refined for 105 years, and with his own age, he has probably spent 130 years. He will need four more refinements to completely kill him."

Su Yu murmured to herself, and with a casual wave of her hand, she unleashed a Myriad Transformations Divine Thunder that sent the resurrected Lü Sheng flying.

At this moment, Lü Sheng had ideas but couldn't do anything to Su Yu. Since Su Yu didn't show himself, the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror was useless, and he could only passively take the beating, being refined and killed every few minutes.

He was repeatedly killed by the immortal fire, losing 50 years of his lifespan each time. Each time he was resurrected, he became even older. By the time he was resurrected for the fifth time, he had a full head of white hair and a face full of wrinkles.

"I can't die!"

"I don't want to die. I'm a genius, and I want to become a true disciple. How can I die?"

His hands trembled as he pleaded desperately:
"Spare me, please spare me."

Su Yu ignored his pleas for mercy and was determined to refine him to death and obtain the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror.

There is no gratitude or resentment between them; they are simply on different sides.

The conflict between the righteous and the demonic has a long history spanning hundreds of thousands of years. Countless disciples have been killed by each other, and the grudges have long since faded away. Now, there is no need for a reason to kill the other side's disciples. They are simply killed. Exorcising demons and monsters will earn the sect's praise, and others will not think that the killing was excessive.

Even if they are killed completely, it is still a matter of both parties signing a life-or-death agreement, and it is a matter of mutual consent. If one loses, it is because one is not skilled enough, and no one will sympathize with him or plead for him.

Unless you can pay a sufficient price to save your life, you're just going to die.

The audience was quiet. Although there was only a blazing immortal banner on the stage, and neither Su Yu nor Lü Sheng could be seen, no one showed any impatience and waited patiently.

Time passed, and several hours went by unnoticed. Su Yu emerged from the immortal fire inside the Immortal Canopy, her gaze fixed on the center of the canopy. As expected, what followed was Lü Sheng's final resurrection.

As the light converged, even the incredibly aged Lü Sheng was a beat slow to react. When he saw Su Yu decisively use all her strength to summon the Yin-Yang Mirror, it seemed incredibly slow to Su Yu.

His figure faded and disappeared, and a faint voice came from the immortal flames:
"Remember, don't join the Demonic Sect in your next life!"

The celestial fire surged and expanded, instantly engulfing him.

In just 1 minute and 15 seconds, a blinding spiritual light suddenly shot into the sky from the immortal fire and traversed the center of the immortal banner. Immediately afterwards, a gray light shot into the sky and crashed heavily onto the inner wall of the immortal banner.

Su Yu realized that Lü Sheng was completely dead.

The soaring spiritual light was the cultivation points and spiritual power that Lü Sheng had retained after his death by the Nine Precepts Immortal Banner, while the gray light that crashed into the Immortal Banner with a loud rumble was the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The divine mirror erupted several times, causing the air waves inside the immortal banner to surge, but the immortal banner remained as still as a mountain, not even swaying.

After the three strikes, the divine mirror stopped. A beam of clear light flew out, transforming into the illusory figure of a dignified middle-aged man. He looked Su Yu up and down and said in a deep voice:

"Lu Sheng was defeated by you because he was not strong enough. This Yin-Yang Divine Mirror is a treasure of our sect. Quickly release its restraints, or don't blame me for bullying the weak!"

Su Yu was not afraid at all; this was clearly a projection of a powerful figure from the Yin-Yang Demon Sect. He said in a deep voice:
"Since he used this treasure to fight me, it will naturally be my spoils after his defeat."

The middle-aged man's face darkened, and he shouted angrily:
"Insanity!"

The divine mirror spun, and a beam of white light blasted towards them.

Su Yu reached out and grabbed a Flame God General, holding him in front of him. A white light swept across the Flame God General, freezing him in place. Su Yu flew out from behind the general, turned around, and disappeared into the immortal fire.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man activated the divine mirror and bombarded the Flame God General in the blink of an eye. Streaks of gray light swept back and forth inside the Immortal Canopy, but could not reach Su Yu at all.

He was standing on the foot of a relief sculpture on the inner wall of the Immortal Pavilion, completely ignoring the chaos inside.

The middle-aged man was merely a remnant of the true owner of the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror. Whether he refined it with the Immortal Banner or actively appeared to activate the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror, he would soon exhaust his power and disappear.

With a wave of his hand, the 20% cultivation points and Dao power that Lü Sheng had lost flew towards him and entered his palm. He opened the experience pool and his eyes lit up immediately.

A total of 322 billion kill experience points and 23500 points of cultivation.

This means that he has consumed a total of 1610 billion experience points and 117500 cultivation points to reach this point in his cultivation.

"Not bad, not bad, another significant boost."

After closing the experience pool, he looked at the sphere of loot that had been put away with Liu Guang. There were nine pieces of loot inside, but only five of them were valuable.

They are: the Rank 8 Fine Magic Treasure Five Demon Seals, a set of twelve Rank 7 Yin-Yang Immortal Slaying Banners, the Rank 8 Rare Magic Treasure Eight Beauties in Harmony, a pair of Rank 7 Fine Demonic Yin-Yang Flying Swords, and an Immortal's Notebook (Demon Immortal Edition).

Not a single cultivation technique was revealed. Lü Sheng was practicing the supreme demonic technique passed down directly from the Yin Yang Demonic Sect, so it was impossible for it to be revealed.

There's not much to say about the Five Demon Seals. They can be used as seals to smash people or to summon five demons to fight. The strength of the five demons is determined by the owner of the magic weapon. For example, the five demons summoned by Lü Sheng are level 150, a terrifying level, and they know many powerful demonic arts.

The twelve Yin-Yang Immortal-Slaying Banners can be used to set up the Yin-Yang Immortal-Slaying Array, gathering Yin and Yang energies to transform into demonic weapons. A set of twelve banners only requires one magic item slot.

This thing is of little use to Lü Sheng; the twenty-four Yin-Yang Demons he has refined are far more powerful than this.

The Yin-Yang Flying Sword is pretty useless; either sell it or give it to the guild for members of unorthodox sects or those who cultivate demonic arts. The Immortal's Notebook is also useless; this is the demonic immortal version, a treasure for demonic cultivators.

The only thing that interested Su Yu was the painting of eight beauties in love.

Eight Beauties in Harmony (Eighth Tier): A rare masterpiece, the painting contains a world within itself, encapsulating eight beauties.

The World Within the Painting: Unfold the Hehuan Painting, and within it lies a world ten miles in circumference, capable of accommodating all living beings.

The True Spirit of Hehuan: Using a secret method, the beauty's primordial spirit is refined into the painting. The beauty cannot leave the area within a hundred miles of the Hehuan painting and is controlled by the painting's owner. Currently, there are 4/8 beauties.

Su Yu picked up the "Eight Beauties in Harmony" painting and unfolded it. It was a lifelike landscape painting with mountains, water, small bridges and flowing streams, as well as pavilions and terraces. The painting depicted four beauties, each with their own unique characteristics and extremely beautiful.

As his consciousness sank into the painting, he immediately found himself in a world shrouded in mist, complete with mountains, water, bridges, streams, pavilions, and four stunningly beautiful women, just like in the painting.

The world in the painting is real, and the four stunning beauties are also real. Su Yu's gaze fell on each of the stunning beauties, and his panel immediately popped up.

Cui Yunxian: Level 152, Second Grade Dao Foundation, Core Disciple of Xuanzhen Immortal Sect, Cultivating the Sect-Level Heart Sutra Jade Purity Purple Mansion True Scripture.

Xia Xiaoyue: Level 136, First-Grade Dao Foundation, True Disciple of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect, Cultivating the Supreme Heart Sutra, Myriad Laws Heavenly Book.

Yue Qingsi: Level 145, Second-Grade Dao Foundation, Core Disciple of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect, Cultivating the Sect-Level Mind Technique, Taixiao Yiqi Xuanjing.

Yan Qiubai: Level 132, Rank 3 Dao Foundation, core disciple of Yin Yang Demon Sect, possesses the sect-level Yin Yang Hun Yuan Refining True Technique.

"???"

"Is this a player or a native NPC?"

Su Yu was taken aback. Her gaze swept over the beauties again, and they were indeed not native NPCs, but players.

He turned his gaze away from the Eight Beauties in Harmony painting and examined the treasure with a gleam in his eyes.

"Damn, this thing is a bit hot to the touch."

They're all players, core disciples of various sects, and some even have a true disciple of a first-grade Dao Foundation stage cultivator. This thing can't be shown off; their friends and family would know if they found out.
"Who created this magical artifact? It's outrageous!"

First, we can rule out Lü Sheng; he doesn't have that ability.

Su Yu guessed that it was most likely obtained by chance, and it was unlikely to have been refined by Lü Sheng's sect. After all, one of the four beauties was a core disciple of the Yin Yang Demon Sect. It would be impossible for them to be refined by a core disciple of the same sect.

The person who crafted this treasure is a monster. These four beauties are not only stunningly beautiful, but each of them is also highly skilled in cultivation. At the very least, they are all at the upper-grade Dao Foundation level, and one of them is even a true disciple of the first-grade Dao Foundation level.

"The Myriad Laws Immortal Sect?"

"This name sounds familiar."

Su Yu pressed her brow and pondered for a moment, quickly recalling that she had seen this name before on the Falling Star Islands.

"Ranked 31st on the Prodigy List, Xia Changge is a true disciple of the Myriad Laws Immortal Sect, and they even share the surname Xia!"

"leave!"

Su Yu put the treasure away, deciding to check on the women's situation after this matter was settled.

After taking stock of the spoils, he looked up at the center of the Immortal Canopy. The resistance of the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror had weakened considerably. With a thought, he urged the Immortal Fire to surge up and accelerate the refining process.

Four minutes later, as the remaining will disappeared, the Yin-Yang Mirror also lost control and fell down.

Su Yu reached out and pulled the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror back. He flipped it over and examined the ancient and simple runes on it, and its attributes became apparent.

Yin-Yang Divine Mirror (Rank 9/Rank 10): A rare treasure of the Demon Realm, capable of controlling Yin and Yang, determining life and death, and the most treasured artifact of the Yin-Yang Demon Sect (currently sealed, down one rank, the artifact has an owner).

Yin Mirror: Activates the power of the divine mirror to strike the target, which can expel the target's primordial spirit from the body for 3-30 seconds. Casting range is 60 kilometers, mana cost is 3000 points, and cooldown is 5 seconds.

Yang Mirror: Activates the power of the divine mirror to strike the target, immobilizing the target for 3-30 seconds. Casting range: 60 kilometers. Mana cost: 3000 points. Cooldown: 5 seconds.

Yin-Yang Pillar: Forces Yin and Yang energies to form a pillar to attack the target, dealing 30 + 300% spell damage as a mixture of Yin and Yang energies. Yin and Yang energies can annihilate the soul. Casting range: 50 kilometers. Mana cost: 20000 points. Cooldown: 1 second.

(Under sealing)
Spiritual Connection: This treasure is spiritually connected and can automatically defend against enemies.

Equipment Requirements: Yin-Yang Demon Codex, Superior Dao Foundation (Exclusive to Lü Sheng)

"What a powerful baby!"

This thing has extremely simple attributes, but it is extremely powerful. All three moves that Lü Sheng used before are included.

This is only the ninth-tier state of this treasure. The attributes clearly show that the Yin-Yang Divine Mirror is sealed and its power is reduced. It is not the complete tenth-tier state.

Because if it were in its complete tenth-tier state, it would be even more powerful, but Lü Sheng couldn't equip it.

A tenth-tier magic weapon can only be equipped after a foundation for cultivation has been established.
