Chapter Thirty-One: And Bear This Mirror, By My Command
ang's help, he was unable to leave the territory of Rizhao County and was directly blocked by soldiers stationed at all exits.In a desperate attempt to escape, Qin Nianmin loudly demanded to report to...The concept of a city in the Heavenly Prison Realm is different from that of cities in the mortal world.

The demon clan's city was exceptionally grand and imposing, almost like a country unto itself.
The entire demon clan, if considered as a whole, is more like a vast empire governed by city-states. The ancient imperial city sits in the center, with all the cities and states under its dominion.
The transition from "tribes" to "city-states" represents a fundamental shift for the myriad demon races.

Though people say "ten miles apart, different sounds; a hundred miles apart, different customs," with diverse languages and customs, they are divided by different countries, sects, and organizations. However, in their identity as human beings, everyone shares a sense of collective belonging.
The demon clan has hundreds of types, but it's not like that.

Even during the glorious era of the demon clan's rule over the myriad realms, inter-tribal battles were commonplace. Wars that could annihilate entire clans and rivers running red with blood were frequent occurrences.
The
term "demon clan" is a general concept, referring to all born-with-spiritual races.

In the beginning, even though things were just growing, they had not yet fully blossomed. This is the celestial paradigm, "夭天" which means youthfulness and flourishing at an early age. The extended meaning of the term "妖族" is that they are young daughters born from heaven. They are favored by Heaven and Earth, appearing in the world with unique charm, thus becoming masters of all realms.
But this high-ranking, sovereign race of the Myriad Realms, with millions of species within it, also has its own hierarchy and distinctions.
There were cat tribes wantonly slaughtering rat ancestors, and there was also the peerless rat demon "Drilling Heaven Great Ancestor," who nearly exterminated the cat tribe.
Such battles as the "Dragon-Han Catastrophe" and the "Wind-Cloud Catastrophe," which almost shattered heaven and earth, are countless. The demon clan's heavenly court was broken several times in the wars of various tribes.
That is, the entire demon clan celestial court was overthrown later, and the demon clan was driven out of the world beyond. The term "demon clan" only then acquired more meaning relative to "human clan."
Simply put, the demon clan began to unite and there was more integration.
This is particularly evident in the Netherworld, as the demon races that grow up there are already accustomed to the power of humans. They know that behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons, such a terrifying opponent exists.
The so-called "Yaozu South Gate" stands majestically in the Tianxi Wilderness, locking the natural boundary of the Frostwind Valley. Looking out, one can see the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Of course, Frostwind Valley no longer exists, only "Frostwind Battlefield," also known as "South Sky Battlefield," remains.
In the northeast of Nanteng City, a thousand miles away, there is a great city that responds to each other. Its name is "Jilei". The people of this city are fierce and overbearing, and in history, there have been famous powerful people. Of course, its power has declined now, but there is still a very powerful demon king residing there.
Ji Léi City was a thousand three hundred li to the north. There was a large city named "Mó Yun," which was guarded by the True Demon Spider Xiansu.
However, the big and small demons are more accustomed to seeing it as the territory of the Heavenly Spider Lady. After all, Zhen Yao Zhu Xian is also a descendant of the Heavenly Spider Lady, and everything she does is done under the banner of the Heavenly Spider Lady.

Chai A Si was an ordinary little demon who collected herbs in Mo Yun City.
Relying on his innate sense of smell, he often lurks in places where demonic auras are rarely seen, searching for mountain materials and collecting spirit herbs in the hope of exchanging them for dao yuan stones and cultivation techniques used for cultivation, especially the latter.

Even without a Dao Yuan Stone, one can accumulate Dao Yuan through hard work and saving. It may just take longer and be more arduous. The golden sun and blood moon suspended in the high heavens will provide eternal energy.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But the cultivation technique determines the efficiency of breathing exercises, determines the strength of Dao Yuan, and also deeply affects the high and low of combat power.
The Yaozu are born with an innate connection to the Dao, each one extraordinary. While this is undoubtedly a blessing from Heaven, the path upward is not so smooth.Speaking of the Yaozu as a whole, their species number well over a hundred! Each type of Yao has the most suitable cultivation technique for its inherent form.
No matter what kind it is, the earliest practice methods were simply the instinctive breathing of life.
As the innate masters of the mortal world and the core race of all realms, demonic races are born with the ability to cultivate.
However, that instinctive method of expelling breath is not the best practice.
That was just the simplest breathing pattern followed by extraordinary life instincts, hardly utilizing any advantages of the extraordinary demonic body.
The Yaozu have historically produced countless geniuses, and there have never been any shortage of terrifyingly powerful prodigies. For example, there was the Taigu Yaohuang, who established the Yaozu Heavenly Court and ruled over all ten thousand realms, as well as those mighty figures who shone brightly in the glorious era. Generations of predecessors throughout history created a brilliant Yaozu civilization and left behind countless powerful Yaozu techniques.
Although a huge gap was created because of the battle that ended the ancient era and forced the retreat of the Heavenly Prison.

But many powerful demon clan warriors still remain in the Heavenly Prison. A powerful warrior himself is a rich inheritance.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After opening up this chaotic world, after several great eras of continuous development, generation after generation of strong people actively explored, the cultivation resources of a vast number of demons once again became abundant.
Don't look down on the Canine Clan just because they are weak now and their size pales in comparison to other powerful clans. In history, there was a mighty figure like Ancestor Chai who emerged from their ranks—a being of that level once pushed the cultivation techniques of the Canine Clan to an entirely new height. Even today, the supreme mystical arts left behind by Ancestor Chai are still the most suitable for Canines to cultivate.
Of course, those earth-shattering and powerful martial arts techniques have nothing to do with him, Chai Si. His talent is too ordinary, too mediocre.
Don't talk about being conscripted into the military and promoted to a demon soldier, or joining some powerful tribe and becoming a demon among demons.
Even facing the platform of sealing demons within all demon tribes, he could only accept the simplest and most basic tasks.
The Sealing God Platform treats all equally, but the members of the same clan do not.
>
A while ago, the little princess of Lady Tianzhu's family issued a task to capture poisonous insects in order to practice her peerless poison skills. He also secretly took it on, fantasizing about getting lucky and finding a particularly weak and particularly venomous insect among millions, thus standing out and gaining the favor of the little princess. If that didn't work, he could at least hope to gain the favor of Lady Tianzhu herself.
Age is not a problem, love can transcend the mundane.
In short, I don't want to work hard, but I can soar high!
But reality was that he took the job but didn't dare to try it, and he didn't dare to let other little demons know that he had taken such a job. The ridicule, mockery, and contempt sometimes came with blood in his medicine chest on his back. All his belongings were in his pocket. He entered the mountains and still ran for herbs. 4
A poisonous creature can't catch a poisonous creature. A slightly more powerful poisonous creature would be killed on contact, so he has some self-awareness about that.
Although he occasionally has unrealistic fantasies, in the concrete details of life, he still strives and lives down-to-earth every day.
That task of collecting venomous insects was just a fleeting fantasy of his.
He carried it with him, but didn't really expect it to come true.
He believes that through his hard work in cultivating herbs and accumulating experience, taking one step at a time, he will one day reach an excellent level—joining the army as a glorious demon soldier, securing a stable job with a monthly salary, which is not just a dream!
The allure of the little princess of Mo Yun City is self-evident, and the bounty hunting squads entering the mountains are endless. Even a market day wouldn't be this lively.
As a solitary demon, Chai Si doesn't feel lonely at all.
With more demon clans entering the mountain, the dangers in those deep mountains and old forests have decreased. This is naturally a good thing for him, whose strength is not enough.
The other monsters all rushed toward the rare venomous insect, and no one competed with him for some worthless herbs.
When those demonic gales swept through, he would simply calmly gather herbs, not at all worrying about any ferocious beasts.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
His medicine chest was now almost full of herbs, the harvest had been bountiful.
As dusk approached, after searching for a while longer, he prepared to leave. After all, he didn't have the courage to spend the night alone in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and there were bounty hunters camped at the foot of the mountain.
Although this kind of medicinal herb-collecting goblin wasn't recognized, he would inevitably be ridiculed when approaching. A few insults wouldn't hurt him much, even if they shoved him around a bit. He could find a place to sleep in the camp without anyone bothering him.
"Thick skin is important! In those deadly cold winters, the demon race relied on thick skin to keep warm!"
"And hold this mirror, by my command! “Thick skin is crucial! During those frigid winters, demonkind relied on their thick hides for warmth!"
This is something grandpa repeatedly taught him while he was still alive.
>
The grandfather later died because of his bad temper. He refused to give way to a carriage and was run over on the street.
He lived to an unknown age. Alas!
There was only a straw mat, and in the mountains, a random pit was dug and he was buried.
He Chai A Si is also a learned man.
Those who come after should learn from the mistakes of those who came before.
The implication is that the preceding yokai was hit and killed by a car, so the following yokai should remember to stay far away.
He has a good memory and thick skin. He treasures everything life has taught him.
But today something feels off.
This area is very active with bounty hunter teams. He particularly remembers that in the famous city of Mo Yun, a prominent young master and cultivation genius named Xun Xi Zai, went searching for venomous insects in this vicinity to win over the heart of the little princess.
Why was the impression so profound Because, as a "wandering demon," he had been impatiently driven away.
But now this Ryan is too quiet. Even the wind is silent, not answering the yellow leaves.
Where did the demon capital go Creak!
As he walked, A Si accidentally stepped on a dry branch, snapping it in two. He was startled.
After nervously looking around and making sure there was no danger, he let out a sigh of relief.
Deep mountains and old forests are treacherous, but the Ten Thousand Mountains are especially so.
He was always careful when he went into the mountains to collect herbs, afraid of making any noise. He only picked what was on the outskirts. This time, because there were many people going up the mountain, he dared to go deeper.
Now that this place is so quiet, it's actually a little frightening to him.
He couldn't wait until nightfall. Half an hour, and then he would head back. He made up his mind, looked cautiously left and right, and continued walking forward.
But then he abruptly stopped!
He was stunned to see, not far ahead of him, the corpses of two demon clan members lying on the ground.
Look at his attire, it's quite extraordinary. He must come from a wealthy family.
Chai Si's fourth raised his foot to turn and run, but suddenly a thought flashed in his mind, and he remained there.
As the old saying goes, why would one kill demons and set fires, all for a golden belt
>
After slaying demons, one becomes increasingly wealthy!
>
These two dead demon clans, to say the least, had the strength of a demon soldier level. Not to mention why they died, the Ten Thousand Great Mountains were dangerous everywhere, and there was a possibility of death in any way, but their bodies were so intact, wouldn't it be possible that there was something good on them
Old Lin was ever more still, so still that he could hear his own heartbeat.
The brave die standing, the timid die hungry!
Chai A Si swallowed hard and looked around again, before cautiously approaching the two bodies.
>
Sniffing carefully, I didn't smell any poison. Through initial observation, both bodies had wounds on their foreheads. They died very suddenly and cleanly, without much suffering. Poking them with a stick, from the unique markings on their clothes,
The root of the tree branch poked, and from the special marks on his clothing, it was indeed one of In Hee-Jae's subordinates brought into the mountains.
How is 犬熙載
That kind of young master, definitely left long ago. What does it matter if a few guards die
Chai A Si didn't think too much about it, nor did he have any criticisms of this world. He put on a pair of leather gloves used for gathering herbs and carefully examined the body without damaging the traces left behind.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Both victims had no storage equipment, so they didn't have much with them.
Weapons and clothing bearing unique markings are naturally things that cannot be taken.
>Don't even bother with worthless junk. There are still some good things to be harvested.
Two and a half pieces of Jian Dao Yuan Shi, twenty-four five-zhu Huang Qian coins. One package of Blood-Stopping Powder, two packages of Antidote Powder.
And a small bronze mirror
Chai Si carefully examined the seemingly ordinary makeup mirror in his hand, wondering why the family's guards would carry this when they went out.
What kind of gift is this for This is too embarrassing to give!
A few years ago, he met a female demon he had a crush on and even saved up money to buy her a watercolor painting. Although all he got in return was a thank you. This guy is a demon soldier, so stingy!
Looking at his ordinary reflection in the mirror, Chai Si planned to put the mirror back. But on second thought, he tentatively sent a bit of Dao Yuan into it.
“Young demon clan member!”
There was a voice resounding in his heart.
Chai A's four were greatly astonished, his hands unconsciously loosened, and the mirror fell straight to the ground.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and snatched it up again.
That's good!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He wiped his brow.
I almost dropped a precious item.
>
He just reacted, realizing that voice was a Daoist saying. Hearing it immediately made sense.
And this mirror could actually react to Dao Yuan, it's definitely a magic artifact.

Is this not considered good fortune
Is the voice from the mirror a spirit Or some ancient deity At this moment, all sorts of myths and legends flash through my mind, and countless adventures from books appear in my heart.
Chai A Si glanced upwards, sparse sunlight filtering through the leaves and falling on his face, as if a glimmer of fate!
I was born into poverty, with no background. I worked hard to cultivate myself. Both my parents passed away, and my grandfather died a horrible death. Other demons looked down on me. I found a mysterious mirror, and there was a mysterious voice inside the mirror. "I'm not the protagonist, who is"
Chai A Si calmed himself down and cautiously sent in a bit more Dao Yuan. He felt the Dao Yuan flow in like mud into the sea, without giving him any feedback. "Good treasure!"
Although he had never possessed a magical artifact, he had at least heard of them. Considering the demand for Dao Yuan's skills, could an ordinary artifact achieve this
He input another point of Dao Yuan, intending to go home and talk about it if there was still no response.
But the voice from the mirror rang out again, "Young demon, it's fate that we meet."
The voice was profound, gentle, and kind, with a power that calmed the listener. It made Chai A Si feel like he was back home, lying on his old, broken bed, feeling comfortable and safe.
“Did you lose something” the voice asked.
Chai Si only just now came to his senses, carefully patting himself down and rummaging through his basket. He exclaimed in surprise, "My medicine hoe is gone!"
A voice, weathered by time, from within the mirror said: "There are three small hoes here."
"A handle of sunk wood, jade as the blade." "A handle of blue wood, black steel as the blade."
"The handle is made of ordinary cedar wood, and the blade is made of common cast iron."
As the sound faded, three small hoes with different shapes appeared in mid-air. They hovered between reality and illusion, like a dream.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The voice in the mirror asked: "Which one is yours that has fallen"
Chai A Si thought for a moment, then said seriously: "It's all mine."
Unknowingly, he felt that the voice in the mirror seemed to be choked. After a moment of silence, it rang out again: “Ambition is not limited by age, and capable demons can see far ahead. Your ambition is commendable!”
Chai A Si smiled happily.
The voice in the mirror sounded once more, mysterious and distant, continuing, "The wooden jade hoe represents your path of cultivation, the black wood obsidian hoe represents your spiritual path, and the firwood cast iron hoe represents your true path. Your disposition is of the highest order, have no doubt, you are a Heaven-Chosen demon. Now I have decided to bestow upon you this path of cultivation, this spiritual path, and this true path." Chai A Si was both shocked and delighted.
Although he didn't quite understand what the Dao, God, and Origin Paths were, he still knew how to smile when receiving things and getting benefits.
But the voice from the mirror said again: "But now my divine body does not exist, and my holy soul is incomplete. I can only first return you to your original path."
The sky-forged wooden and jade hoe, as well as the azure wood and black steel hoe, all vanished. Only the cedarwood cast iron hoe fell down, landing in the dumbfounded hands of Chai Ah Siu.
He looked in the mirror, seeing only himself reflected there, holding that broken medicine hoe. He blurted out, "Why do I feel like you're lying to me"
Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!
“Be bold!” The voice in the mirror suddenly dropped.
A terrifying aura suddenly descended upon the deep mountains.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Chai A Si only felt a primal fear emanating from the depths of his soul, rendering him speechless and immobile, frozen in dread! At this moment, he almost wanted to kneel down, weep bitterly, and sincerely repent.
Then that oppressive feeling suddenly vanished.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The voice in the mirror sounded more weathered, lamenting: "I was originally the ancient deity of Chiyun Mountain. I was harmed by evil forces, my demonic body shattered, and only my soul survived. I had to cross the River of Destiny, my primordial spirit traversing the chaos, and taking refuge within this broken mirror."
"Our meeting today is by fate, a sliver of destiny between us. We are destined to meet."
"And hold this mirror, by my command. Achieve my way, and enjoy supreme bliss yourself."
“Someday, when I have restored my mighty form and returned to the throne of supremacy, I shall decree you a god, allowing you to be the most revered among demons, the supreme one!”
This path, the divine body and holy soul spanning the river of fate, it's simply unbelievable! Chai A-Siu was dizzy with astonishment, feeling an incredible sense of awe.
What rank is the ancient Shanggu Chiyun Mountain God At least a Yangshen level, to be able to cross the River of Fate, right No, if he could really live from ancient times to now, he should already be a Zun Shen.
But he was still somewhat hesitant.
The pressure is there, the aura is there, but the benefits are all just empty promises. You never heard of being able to fill your stomach with just promises, did you
Holding this mirror, is it fortune or disaster
The spirit in the mirror seemed to see his thoughts and spoke again, "Fate brings us together. This deity never harms demons. I see that you have excellent aptitude and a free spirit. I shall teach you a set of heaven-defying and earth-shattering secret sword techniques called 'Tian Jue Di Xian'. Learn this, little demon, and know the power of my divine arts!"
At this moment, complex information flooded my mind like a raging torrent. It was like the gates of a heavenly flood had opened, overwhelming me completely, leaving me with no power to resist or even comprehend.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In the blink of an eye, a set of miraculous sword techniques, he already remembered!
With a thought, every detail of swordsmanship came to mind crystal clear.
Chai A Si stood still, speechless for a moment.
"Don't be surprised, little demon. A towering peak rises from the earth and will surely pierce the clouds someday! Having entered this deity's domain, this is just the beginning. Your good days are ahead of you!"
Chai A Si came back to his senses and said, "I practice swordsmanship."
He must not know, the existence in the mirror, with what willpower, endured the impulse to jump out and strike him.
He only heard the voice in the mirror, kind and gentle— "The sword is a gentleman's tool, from now on, practice with the sword."
10 "Alright!" Chai A Si agreed very readily.
Anyway, he just practices his sword skills to chop some firewood and make some extra money. He only knows two moves: chopping and hacking.
This "Celestial Heaven and Earth Collapse Secret Sword Technique" sounds invincible just from the name!
The voice in the mirror emphasized, "Enter under my command, and you will be different from any ordinary demon. However, my enemy is a terrifying existence, far beyond your capabilities. My current state requires me to retreat and avoid confrontation. Therefore, before I regain my full power, you must remain low-key and avoid misfortune."
Chai A Si is full of confidence:
"Don't worry about that, I'm very low-key. Not many demons would even look at me!"
“Very good. Remember, ‘Wind and rain cannot shake the heart of a noble person.’ You are who you were, and you still are. Do your own thing, live your own life. When the time is right, you will naturally get what you deserve.”
"I must rely on slumber to recover my strength. I shall conceal this mirror and await my next awakening to learn more."
The voice in the mirror, faint and indistinct, vanished.
But in Chai Si's heart, there were lingering echoes, causing a tidal wave of fury!
Although he trained with a sword and lacked much experience, this set of Heavenly Trap Sword Techniques was truly ingenious! In his entire life, he had never had the opportunity to learn such swordsmanship.
Throughout history, the strongest individuals have always had extraordinary experiences. There is no doubt that his chance has come today!
In the depths of ancient mountains and forests, a dead body is found. But when the mirror shines upon it, its brilliance illuminates all ages!
With the ancient divine mirror tucked into his bosom, Chai Si looked left and right, observing carefully for a long while before meticulously dealing with any traces he'd left behind. Only then did he slowly exit the area and walk down the mountain alone.
Although the back of his medicine chest was still not full, his steps had become much more determined. He had already seen a solid future! Since he didn't have eyes behind him, he naturally couldn't see it. After he left, a burst of red fire suddenly jumped up, silently sweeping through the forest, instantly burning the two demonic corpses and all traces he hadn't managed to clean up.
All things are summed up in three. When mastered, one understands them all.
Here, the mountains and forests are even quieter, with no trace of demons.
Following the old path, Chai A Si descended the mountain slowly. Along the way, he encountered several familiar medicinal herb-gathering goblins, exchanged a few words with them, inquired about their harvest, and then went their separate ways.
As the sun sets beyond the mountains, there is still a glimmer of golden light left.
He walked towards the campsite that had formed spontaneously at the foot of the mountain, but at a certain moment, he suddenly stopped!
Not only him, but also many little demons at the foot of the mountain, all looked up in amazement at the high sky—.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A terrifyingly powerful figure swept across a vast expanse of darkness, crashing through the howling blizzard and surging from the depths of the Tianxi Wasteland. It charged straight towards this direction, heading straight for the Ten Thousand Mountain Range!
Just as, a dark cloud enters the mountains!
Chai Si'er lowered his head inexplicably, a touch of nervousness in his demeanor as he walked into the camp.
In the scattered figures of the little demons descending the mountain, his figure was not conspicuous.
Here's the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The brilliant afterglow behind him gradually faded.
This day, the golden sun of the demon world set.
