Chapter 2453: Chapter 1874: Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror (Double Chapter, Part 2)

A burst of exhilaration!

"Rumble..."

The ground emitted a dull sound again, cracks began to appear, the soil sank, giving a sense of impending collapse.

"Senior, I can help you protect the law, but let me be clear first, I can’t stop this disaster!"

Su Ran looked at the surrounding terrain with his heart pounding, feeling extremely tense. He could imagine the scene of the Desert Maze collapsing; if it really came to that, he reckoned he’d have to perish along with General Ben Valley.

"No need to worry."

To Su Ran’s surprise, Ben Valley actually replied to him. Not only that, it stopped its meditative state, stood up, and laughed at Su Ran, saying, "Let’s just leave now, shall we?"

"Senior, have you completed the absorption?"

Su Ran felt a surge of joy; Ben Valley’s conclusion came at just the right time, finally enabling an escape from this ghostly place!

"Not even a third absorbed. The Heavenly Demon Order contains a too intense Heavenly Demon aura, still needs more time."

With a casual wave, Ben Valley created a teleportation light array in front of them, "Little Skeleton, follow me."

"I didn’t know we could teleport. Senior, you should’ve used this move earlier; it would’ve saved us from all this worry!"

Su Ran couldn’t help but complain; this terrain belonged to the Desert of Death, safer to return to the Demon Realm where less trouble might be encountered. What was Ben Valley thinking?

"You think I didn’t want to? My soul just returned to place, already a spent force. If it weren’t for the support of the Heavenly Demon aura, this teleportation skill wouldn’t even be worth considering."

Ben Valley patiently explained, then stepped into the teleportation light array and disappeared from Su Ran’s view.

"Oh wait, Senior, wait for me!"

Su Ran hurriedly rushed into the teleportation light array; any free ride shouldn’t be missed, sparing the hassle of running back.

Demon Realm.

"Little Skeleton, welcome back to the Demon Realm."

Here was Ben Valley’s territory, naturally greeting his savior, Su Ran, with the attitude of a host.

"Senior, are you going to continue absorbing the Heavenly Demon aura, or give me the task reward?"

Su Ran had always been fixated on the quest reward, the Dream Seeking Mirror, so he seized the opportunity immediately as it arose, eyes eagerly fixed on Ben Valley, hoping for a positive response.

"Little Skeleton, seems you’re quite attached to this Dream Seeking Mirror, well then, I’ll grant you this wish first."

Ben Valley turned and walked forward, saying, "Keep up, there’s an illusion ahead."

"Thank you, Senior, for fulfilling my wish!"

Su Ran was overjoyed and quickly followed, asking in a probing tone, "Senior, what’s the effect of the Dream Seeking Mirror you’re giving me?"

"What kind would you like it to have?"

"Ah?"

Hearing Ben Valley’s counter-question, Su Ran was stunned, asking incredulously, "This... the Dream Seeking Mirror can be chosen?"

"Technically it’s not possible, but since you’ve saved me twice, I’ll make an exception and let you choose,"

Ben Valley smiled, "I hadn’t clarified earlier; this Dream Seeking Mirror requires the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror to transform, and specifying the attributes for it requires consuming quite a bit of Heavenly Demon aura, though I can manage."

"Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror..."

Su Ran was incredibly excited hearing he could specify the Dream Seeking Mirror’s attributes; in reality, his heart thumped wildly. After playing for over a year, he finally saw the hope of a complete cure!

This moment, he had yearned for many years!

Given the circumstances, Su Ran actually had an urge to cry, a feeling that only he could understand.

"Senior, is the illusion you mentioned created by this Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror?"

Su Ran calmed his emotions and then voiced his doubt.

"Yes, correct. As long as you follow closely, you won’t be trapped in the illusion."

Ben Valley continued to move forward without any pause in his steps. From this, it was clear that he’s traversed through this illusion many times.

Knowing the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror’s function, Su Ran didn’t ask further questions, holding a mix of apprehension and excitement as he followed in Ben Valley’s footsteps, understanding in his heart that asking too much would only cause this NPC to be annoyed, which would be counterproductive. Ben Valley had already granted him the privilege to choose, what was there to worry about?

After about ten minutes, the scenery before Su Ran changed, revealing a towering giant tree with a deep tree hole two meters high illuminated dimly, showing nothing within.

"Follow me."

Under Ben Valley’s lead, Su Ran entered the tree hole to find a wooden platform with a black mirror placed on top, a blood-red ’evil’ character carved into the handle.

It wasn’t hard to guess that this was the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror Ben Valley referred to.

"Evil Mirror, activate!"

Ben Valley raised one hand, forming it into a claw shape, reaching for the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror.

Under the infusion of Heavenly Demon aura, the Evil Mirror compliantly fell into Ben Valley’s grasp, no anomalies occurring at all.

Seeing this, Su Ran couldn’t help but silently murmur; if he were to take the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror, he definitely wouldn’t handle it well, as the system’s routine operations were without flaws.

"Little Skeleton, what kind of Dream Seeking Mirror do you want? You can speak now."

Ben Valley toyed with the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror, speaking unhurriedly, his expression revealing satisfaction with the newly obtained mirror.

"I’d like... a Dream Seeking Mirror that can completely cure the ’Gradual Corpse Stiffness’ disease."

Su Ran’s voice trembled as he said this, hoping to hear a definitive answer from Ben Valley so he could heal completely and become a normal person.

"What is ’Gradual Corpse Stiffness’?"

Reality showed Su Ran’s thinking was naive; in the game, the rarity of ’Gradual Corpse Stiffness’ was such that Ben Valley had never heard of it.

"Senior, then could you get a Dream Seeking Mirror that cures all diseases?"

Su Ran quickly rephrased his request, looking for another path for a solution!

"Possible, but it requires a tremendous consumption of Heavenly Demon aura, beyond my help."

Ben Valley sighed and shook his head, "If you’re able to wait, after a hundred years, I could fulfill your wish."

What?

A hundred years? 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

By then, he’d be long buried, what’s the use of the Dream Seeking Mirror then?

Su Ran dejectedly puckered his lips, feeling despondent; as the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, leaving him feeling stifled.

"Senior, is there no other way?"

Su Ran asked persistently, "I need this Dream Seeking Mirror to save my life, hoping for your favor."

"Since you’ve said so, I can attempt to transform a Dream Seeking Mirror for treating ’Gradual Corpse Stiffness’, but I can’t guarantee it."

Ben Valley mused for a moment before speaking, "Little Skeleton, you must be prepared for failure; you only have one chance and if it fails, there won’t be another."

"Let’s try."

Su Ran held out little hope, embracing a testing mindset; even failure would be uncontrollable, but he’d have tried without regrets in this life.

"Alright."

Ben Valley nodded, placing his hand over the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror, infusing it with a Heavenly Demon aura, his expression becoming quite serious.

Su Ran stared at the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror, anticipating a miracle.

If it could transform into a Dream Seeking Mirror specifically for ’Gradual Corpse Stiffness’, he’d do anything, even surrendering his territory or deleting the game account!

His demands weren’t high; just surviving would make him content...

"Dream Seeking Mirror for ’Gradual Corpse Stiffness’ disease, congeal!"

Ben Valley lost a significant amount of Heavenly Demon aura, looking pale. Now it was critical, continuing to infuse the aura into the Evil Mirror, uninterrupted.

As words fell, the Heavenly Demon Evil Mirror radiated bright light; under its illumination, an illusion of the Dream Seeking Mirror appeared in the air, slowly solidifying into a real Dream Seeking Mirror, falling to the ground.
