Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1010 - 1006: One-Twelfth of the Demon-Revealing Mirror

Chapter 1010: Chapter 1006: One-Twelfth of the Demon-Revealing Mirror

[Don’t lay a hand on me, everything can be negotiated!]

Yun Ran shook her head: "No, I can’t trust you, and I don’t intend to spare you. Although you are a Magic Artifact, you’ve been tainted with evil, keeping you is too dangerous!"

Copper Mirror: ...

You’re a ’body seizing’ creature, and you talk to me about danger?

But seeing Yun Ran’s uncompromising stance, the copper mirror dared not speak harshly.

It could only continue to bargain with Yun Ran.

[As long as you stop, anything goes!]

Seeing the sword’s edge about to strike down, it suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Seeing this, the copper mirror thought, hey, there’s a chance.

It immediately worked harder to produce more words.

[I’m more useful than you think, omniscient, omnipotent!]

Seeing the copper mirror fall for it, Yun Ran retracted her sword, tilted her body, and leaned against the wheelchair.

Her face showed an ambiguous smile: "Oh, so powerful? Then tell me your origin, and I’ll decide whether to spare you or not!"

The copper mirror had no idea it had fallen into Yun Ran’s trap, it only wanted to find a way to survive.

It immediately mustered up words in a rush.

[I am a Demon-Revealing Mirror, there are twelve copper mirrors like me, we can see through all illusions, no matter how powerful a Life is, they will reveal their true form before us.

Over the years, we’ve devoured many Evil beings, making them suffer before turning into ashes.

After years of demon-slaying, we gradually developed some spiritual wisdom from mere Magic Artifacts, we can even foresee some aspects of the future...]

From the copper mirror’s words, it’s clear that it sees itself as standing on the moral high ground of justice.

Its full conviction is in slaying demons, dealing with any and all demons and ghosts is no big deal.

If not for witnessing the tragedy inside the mirror world and Xuan Chu previously seeing those powerless demons being slaughtered.

Yun Ran might have actually believed the copper mirror’s words.

However, Yun Ran didn’t doubt the copper mirror was lying, after all, at a life-and-death moment like this, an artifact with just a hint of spiritual wisdom couldn’t possibly weave a tapestry of lies.

Thus, there’s only one explanation.

That is, the copper mirror genuinely believes it is vanquishing demons, and is even proud of it.

Yun Ran’s gaze once again fell on the copper mirror, her eyes carrying a trace of sympathy.

She thought, this copper mirror can reveal her true form, indicating it’s a very powerful Magic Artifact.

A Magic Artifact like this could easily develop a high-level Artifact Spirit, one that could even enchant people like the Demon-locking Tower’s Artifact Spirit.

But the copper mirror before her, not to mention developing an Artifact Spirit, hadn’t even fully awakened its spiritual wisdom, only showing a hint of it.

Considering what the copper mirror said before, it’s easy to conclude it was truly misled by some people and ultimately used up.

In the path of slaying demons, nothing is absolute.

Even a Magic Artifact initially on the side of justice, obsessively seeking some extreme, could also lose its way.

The copper mirror seemed to have absorbed too many resentful spirits of evil ghosts and demons, becoming bogged down with too much karma.

If not for the copper mirror’s own firm belief in its mission of purging evil, it would’ve been consumed by karma and turned into an Evil Artifact.

Yun Ran’s regret was only for a fleeting moment, soon disappearing.

The copper mirror may have been used by others, but it did participate in spreading a lot of sin; mercy and compassion toward an enemy is cruelty to oneself.

Now, the copper mirror was clearly standing on the opposite side of Yun Ran, so naturally, she wanted to extract more information.

"So you’re a Demon-Revealing Mirror, do you know about the Heavenly Book?"

Previously, the Divine Cauldron Spirit knew of the Heavenly Book’s existence, but sadly, it had been buried for a long time, clearly having fallen into a slumber.

As for this copper mirror, it likely isn’t of too low a level, it might indeed know something about the Heavenly Book’s whereabouts.

Yun Ran asked casually, not expecting to get any news, so she wouldn’t be disappointed.

But when her voice fell, after a long while, the copper mirror didn’t respond, causing Yun Ran some surprise.

Previously, the copper mirror had been quick to form words, perhaps faced with the threat of death, even Magic Artifacts are particularly discerning.

This small anomaly made Yun Ran instinctively cautious.

Though her body still reclined in the wheelchair, her hand holding the sword was ready for an attack anytime.

At this moment, upon hearing Yun Ran mention the Heavenly Book, the copper mirror suddenly seemed to be under attack.

The originally tragic and wailing scene in the mirror world suddenly grew silent.

Then, the entire mirror world collapsed in an instant, as if entering a self-destruct mode, everything turned to powder.

This sudden change made the copper mirror seem like an electronic device experiencing a malfunction, completely freezing it.

Not to mention answering Yun Ran’s questions, it couldn’t even return to normal.

Yun Ran’s gaze narrowed slightly, unable to fathom the copper mirror’s behavior.

But she confirmed one thing, the Heavenly Book’s existence might be the paramount secret of this world, something not easily touched.

A "click" sounded.

Yun Ran watched as the copper mirror, very close to her, developed cracks in the base and frame.

This made Yun Ran involuntarily gasp, even if she guessed the Heavenly Book’s secret was beyond reach.

But all she did was ask, the copper mirror could choose not to answer, but self-destruction seemed unnecessary.

The cracks in the base and frame grew larger until they completely split into two.

The embedded copper mirror fell abruptly to the ground with a thud.

Yun Ran: ...

Can her future achievements include ’I made a Magic Artifact break in shame with just a word’?

The copper mirror on the ground, or perhaps a bare mirror now, lay silently.

With Yun Ran’s thoughts, the wheelchair smoothly rolled over to the copper mirror as if it were her feet.

Yun Ran didn’t immediately reach out to pick up the bare mirror, instead, she illuminated it with the Demon Core she held.

Upon seeing the edges of the bare copper mirror, clearly marked with scratches, Yun Ran raised her eyebrows.

The copper mirror previously mentioned there were twelve of its kind.

Based on her years of Artifact Refining experience, those scratches on the copper mirror’s edge were clearly man-made.

"So this Demon-Revealing Mirror should be one-twelfth of the whole!"
