Chapter 1155 The Magic Mirror
Meng Zhang originally thought that his persuasion this time would be as fruitless as before and would not receive any response from the Void Cauldron.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, an old man with white beard and white hair jumped out from the huge mouth of the Void Cauldron.
Meng Zhang has been to Maple Leaf Mountain City many times, and almost every time he comes to see the Void Cauldron.
But this old guy basically hides in the cauldron and rarely appears in front of Meng Zhang.
It is really the first time that we have jumped out like this.
Seeing Meng Zhang's dazed expression, the old man who called himself Xu Kongzi, the weapon spirit of the Void Cauldron, shouted loudly.
"Master, don't be stunned."
"It's not your first time meeting me, wouldn't you recognize me?"
Only then did Meng Zhang come back to his senses, with a smile on his face.
"Senior, I wonder which gust of wind blew you out of the cauldron?"
Xu Kongzi blew on his white beard and ignored Meng Zhang's sarcasm.
"Although I have been staying in the cauldron, I am not blind or deaf, let alone a fool."
"Not many things that happen in this shabby place like Maple Leaf Mountain City can be hidden from me."
"I heard that a demonic disaster broke out again in the surrounding area. It's similar to the time when the family was wiped out?"
The rebuilt Taiyi Sect was destroyed due to a demonic disaster.
Speaking of which, the rebuilt Taiyi Gate and the Mountain Gate were also built in the Daheng Xiuzhen Realm.
But that place has long since become a paradise for monsters.
The Void Cauldron is also a fourth-level magic weapon after all, and the weapon spirit Void Kongzi is quite capable.
If when the rebuilt Taiyi Sect was wiped out, Xu Kongzi was willing to put in a little effort instead of actively escaping into the interlayer of space, maybe it would have been a different outcome.
Xu Kongzi seemed to hear Meng Zhang's inner voice and also knew the reason for Meng Zhang's dissatisfaction with his family.
He smiled bitterly and didn't say another word.
Of course he had his own reasons for not taking action back then.
However, although he is a weapon spirit, he is known to be arrogant and arrogant, and he will not explain it to this junior Meng Zhang, even if he is the current head of the Taiyi Sect.
Xukong suddenly became disinterested and lost interest in talking.
He stretched out his right hand and faced a burst of energy in the void cauldron, and a mirror actually appeared.
This mirror looks extremely simple. The back of the mirror is engraved with dense patterns, and the front of the mirror is a gray-looking mirror surface.
Xu Kongzi threw the mirror to Meng Zhang.
"When the Taiyi Sect was in Middle-earth, it was famous for its various clever methods of subduing demons."
"After the Taiyi Sect was destroyed, most of these methods were lost."
"This mirror is one of the few things that can be handed down."
"It's just that among the descendants of the Taiyi Sect, there are unsatisfactory people, so I have been keeping this mirror."
"Now, I hand this mirror over to you. I hope this demon-conquering treasure will shine brilliantly in your hands. I also hope, Master, that you will not disgrace this treasure, let alone the reputation of the seniors in the sect."
Before he finished speaking, Xukongzi's figure disappeared on the spot.
Apparently, he hid back in the Void Cauldron.
Meng Zhang took the mirror and looked at it carefully.
The Void Cauldron is originally a space magic weapon, with a large independent space inside it.
The independent space inside the Void Cauldron was originally used as a warehouse, storing many Taiyi Sect's inherited classics, as well as many cultivation materials.
Later, after being warned by the seniors in the sect, Guishen Shouzheng, Xu Kongzi opened the independent space inside to Meng Zhang and other Taiyi sect monks, allowing them to obtain these inherited classics and various cultivation materials.
Of course, Meng Zhang could guess that there must be more than one place inside the Void Cauldron that he had been to.
For a space magic weapon like the Void Cauldron, it is too easy to create some independent space inside and hide some items.
Since there was a treasure to take, Meng Zhang didn't care about Xu Kongzi's attitude.
Meng Zhang had long heard from many people that the Taiyi Sect in its heyday had extremely sophisticated means of subduing demons.
Some of Meng Zhang's methods for dealing with demonic cultivators were mistakenly thought to have been inherited from the ancestors of the Taiyi Sect.
But in fact, among the Taiyi Sect classics that Meng Zhang obtained, there were not many ways to conquer demons.
He originally thought that all these methods of defeating demons should have been lost.
Now Xukongzi gave him this mirror and said it was a magic-conquering treasure.
When did Xukongzi disappear? Meng Zhangdu ignored it and focused on the mirror.
He carefully studied the material of the mirror and the patterns on it, and then probed his mind into the mirror to conduct an in-depth investigation.
After a long time, he finally figured out the details of this treasure.
This mirror is called the Demon-Conquering Mirror.
As the name suggests, it is a magical weapon specially used to subdue evil.
The Demon-Conquering Mirror is a fourth-level magic weapon, but there is no weapon spirit inside.
Most of the fourth-level magic weapons in the world of cultivation have weapon spirits, which can assist the owner to better control the magic weapon.
However, under certain special circumstances, the refiner will use secret methods to deliberately obliterate the spirituality of the magic weapon, or kill the spirit of the magic weapon.
The most common scenario for this situation is when refining some disposable magic weapons.
Many disposable magic weapons fully exert their destructive power by destroying or self-destructing the magic weapon.
If the magic weapon has spirituality, or even a weapon spirit, it will be difficult to control.
All living beings, including weapon spirits, have the instinct to survive and generally will not take the initiative to self-destruct.
Therefore, when refining a one-time magic weapon, the magic weapon must not be allowed to have spirituality, let alone the birth of a weapon spirit.
This kind of disposable magic weapon has a single function, but it is extremely powerful and has excellent use effects.
The Demon-Conquering Mirror has no weapon spirit, but it is not a disposable magic weapon.
When refining the magic mirror, its biggest imaginary enemies are all kinds of monsters and all kinds of magic cultivators.
Demonic energy is extremely corrosive and causes great damage to spirituality.
Many monsters and demonic cultivators have the ability to confuse the mind.
Weapon spirits are often simple-minded and simple-minded, and can be deceived by magic means if they are not careful.
Therefore, when the Demon-Conquering Mirror was being refined, its spirituality was deliberately erased so that it would not give birth to a weapon spirit.
If you want to refine the Demon-Suppressing Mirror, the requirements are not stringent. You only need to practice any one of the Taiyi Sect's core techniques, and its true energy attributes are not contaminated by demonic energy, and you can meet the basic requirements.
There are no special requirements for refining techniques. As long as it is a technique commonly used by Taiyi Sect for refining magical instruments, it can be used.
Of course, there are some small requirements for the refiner's cultivation.
You must have at least a middle-level cultivation of Yuanshen to refine this magic-conquering mirror.
Because this magical weapon has no weapon spirit or spirituality, it will neither provide assistance nor hinder the refiner.
