Library of Heaven 2 Destiny Eternal

Chapter 568 The Disguise of Confucius

Startled, Zhang Xuan's face lit up with surprise.

The voice belonged to none other than Confucius.

In the Heavenly Capital of Laws, he always found it unbelievable that this person had betrayed him in exchange for the opportunity to join the Heavenly Departure Empire, yet he also always felt that it wasn't that simple.

Now it seems that it is indeed the case.

The other party's so-called better inheritance of the Mandate of Heaven should only be a means to temporarily and quickly increase their strength. Now that they have broken through to the first level of the Mandate of Heaven and reached the Emperor Realm, there is no need to continue pretending.

Otherwise, how could a cultivator of this level make the same mistake twice?

Not only did he realize this, but Buddha and Demon also understood, and their eyes narrowed involuntarily.

"Betraying Emperor Fusheng, Kong Shiming, aren't you afraid of death?"

As he spoke, he flicked his hand slightly, unleashing a burst of power that instantly brought the confused Crown Prince Yuanqing back to his senses. However, the power of his ancestors had already diminished, greatly reducing his strength.

"What nonsense do you speak of, Buddha and demon? I stand upright and have no fear of death. It is you who cannot distinguish between good and evil, and has destroyed the long-standing tradition of Buddhism. You are the one who deserves to die..."

Master Kong remained calm.

"That's just sophistry. You really think that just because you've broken through the Heavenly Mandate, you can compare to me? You're still a long way off!"

With a cold snort, the Buddha and Demon simultaneously unleashed the Buddha's mudra with their left hand and the Demon's palm with their right, causing the Ten Directions Blood Buddha Banner to release rays of light that enveloped Master Kong as well.

As expected of a super strong being formed by the fusion of Buddha and Demon Lord, he fought against Youye Emperor and Master Kong alone without being at a disadvantage.

Knowing that Master Kong was stopping the Buddha and the Demon to buy himself time, Zhang Xuan didn't say much and controlled the Xuanyuan Chariot to speed up and rush towards the Myriad Life Chaos Mirror in front of him.

However, what puzzled him was that although it looked very close, he could never touch it, as if the scene in front of him was just a mirage, and the gold and silver in his dream were something he could only look at but never obtain.

"They can all sacrifice their souls to gain a chance to defy fate, which means this thing is real. Why can't we touch it?"

After flying for a while longer, Zhang Xuan realized she still couldn't reach the other person, so she narrowed her eyes.

The fact that all three of them successfully defied fate proves that there is nothing wrong with this magical artifact. Since it exists, it should be attainable. The only reason for this situation is that they did not comprehend the rules.

Every treasure has its own rules. Some can seal space, some can suppress souls, and some can change time... Since this magic treasure is known as the number one second-level Heavenly Mandate Treasure, it must have extraordinary features.

Upon closer inspection, one can still see their own reflection in the various outfits, flashing by as if replaying past events.

"If this magical artifact is used as a mirror to reflect a person's entire life, then... what drives it?"

To refine a magical artifact, one must first understand why it functions and what kind of power is needed to drive it.

If even the driving force can't be achieved, then the so-called refining is just a joke.

"This magical artifact had been hidden deep within the void rift, unable to appear. It was only through the Five Decays Purgatory Lamp that Emperor Youye lured it out..."

A flash of inspiration struck me.

The Chaos Mirror of Myriad Fates had been hidden deep within the void until the Five Decays Purgatory Lamp ignited the space, illuminating the dark cracks and revealing its form.

"It's light!"

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but turn her head.

Under normal circumstances, a mirror can reflect everything it sees, but no matter what it reflects, it needs light!

Without light, even the smoothest mirror will be completely dark.

If that's the case, then the ability to activate this magical artifact must be related to light.

"Light the life lamp!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuan didn't hesitate. His eyebrows rose, and his spirits suddenly lifted. Although he didn't have any magical artifacts like lamps, he had cultivated the Soul-Forging Lamp Technique, a technique that allowed cultivators to ignite their souls and form a life lamp.

This lamp is invisible to the naked eye, but can be observed with the soul; perhaps it can illuminate this chaotic mirror of all lives.

Sure enough, as the eight lamps were lit, the reflections in the mirror immediately converged, forming the pattern of the life lamps.

My youthful self, and my cinematic life, have all vanished.

"go!"

Leaving the Xuanyuan Chariot, Zhang Xuan continued flying and indeed felt the Life Lamp growing brighter and brighter, getting closer and closer to the Myriad Life Chaos Mirror.

Knowing that his guess was correct, Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and his hand involuntarily reached out.

A moment later, I felt a cool sensation on the surface of my hand, as if I were touching ice.

"defect!"

Without the slightest hesitation, a low cry rang out.

hum!
The Heavenly Library shook violently, with countless Heavenly Fate energies burning continuously. The next moment, a book appeared before them.

Upon receiving it in her palm, Zhang Xuan gently flipped it open.

"The Chaos Mirror of Myriad Fates, ranked first among second-level Heavenly Fate Treasures. Flaw one: It can help people defy fate, but a certain price must be paid... Flaw two: Within a hundred years, there are only three opportunities to change one's fate. Flaw three..."

"Sure enough!"

After reading the above content, Zhang Xuan was filled with excitement.

I was just testing it out of curiosity, but I didn't expect it to actually work.

It seems that the Heavenly Library in my mind is still superior to the Chaos Mirror of Myriad Fates; otherwise, it would be impossible to easily discover its flaws.

"With the lamp of destiny burning, my fate is in my own hands, not controlled by anyone!"

After reading the book and learning about the flaws of this magical artifact, Zhang Xuan took a deep breath, his eyes serious.

hum!
The life lamp burned brighter and brighter, its dazzling light seemingly about to burst forth from his body at any moment.

According to the feedback from the Heavenly Dao Library, to refine this magic weapon, one must first have an equal status. Once one uses the other party's help to defy fate, it is equivalent to making a deal, making one inferior to the other party, and it will be almost impossible to refine it!

In other words, once you've used the other party's power to defy fate, there's no chance to refine it again.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Night Emperor has guarded the other party for tens of thousands of years but has never been able to find a way to refine it.

"So, in that case, neither Buddha, Prince Yuanqing, nor Master Kong can refine it?"

Zhang Xuan suddenly realized.

I was initially saddened by missing the chance to defy fate because I acted too late, but now it seems there's no need to be sad at all, it's fantastic!

Since he did not rely on the other party's power, he had the right to engage in equal dialogue and thus the qualification to refine the other party!

That alone makes it irreplaceable by anything else.

"Submit to me!"

Understanding this, Zhang Xuan extended his hand.

This is a second-level supreme treasure ranked number one. Once refined and integrated into the Xuanyuan War Chariot, it might allow this magic weapon to break through its limitations and reach the level of a first-level Heavenly Mandate Supreme Treasure!

The first-level Heavenly Mandate Treasure has no ranking. Anyone who reaches it will have the ability to reverse the heavens and earth. As long as they succeed, even if they do not break through to the Emperor level, they will no longer fear Emperor Fusheng and others, and will have the power to fight.

(My back pain flared up again, I can't sit up, I can only lie down and rest for three days. I also need to think carefully about how to end this.)
