Chapter 303: First Look at the Tianxuan Mirror
"This opportunity only comes once, you must seize it," Ji Hongdao's tone was very serious.
The students also understood that such opportunities might only come once in a lifetime. Even with a strong mindset, they couldn't help but feel apprehensive and expectant.
In front of everyone, Ji Hongdao took out a communication talisman and seemed to be contacting someone. After a moment, he nodded, ending the call. He took out a Tianxuan Minor Mirror from his storage ring.
He threw it up, suspending it high above everyone's heads. Then he took out a silver-colored jade slip and gently crushed it. Instantly, countless jumbled characters emerged from the jade slip.
Ji Hongdao chanted a spell, and those characters flew towards the Tianxuan Minor Mirror in the sky in a specific sequence.
Li Fan squinted his eyes. He saw, on the Tianxuan Mirror, paragraphs of text flashing rapidly one after another.
As the characters continued to change, after absorbing the words from the jade slip, the originally ordinary Tianxuan Minor Mirror underwent a strange transformation.
The outline of the mirror began to dissolve and disappear after emitting a faint light. The mirror surface was no longer constrained and began to expand rapidly in all directions.
In the blink of an eye, a palm-sized mirror turned into a huge gate a hundred feet high and thirty feet wide.
On the towering and wide mirror surface, there was no reflection of the surrounding scenery, only streams of silver light circulating.
As everyone marveled at the changes before them, Ji Hongdao flew to the front of the mirror surface and cast a spell.
A silver beam of light shot out from the mirror surface, enveloping Ji Hongdao. A segment of characters appeared and disappeared on the mirror surface in an instant.
It seemed to confirm Ji Hongdao's identity. The beam of light dimmed, and then a black figure appeared in the center of the mirror surface.
In an instant, it expanded to cover the entire mirror surface. A rectangular spatial passage appeared in front of everyone.
"This is..."
"Any mirror incarnation of the Tianxuan Mirror can be used as a node to activate spatial teleportation?"
"It seems to require both password and identity verification." Based on this scene, Li Fan speculated to himself.
"Follow me. Only after passing the Tianxuan Mirror's identity verification can you enter the passage." After speaking, Ji Hongdao flew in first. With excited hearts, the students couldn't wait to fly closer.
Whenever someone was about to approach the passage, a silver beam of light fell from above, locking onto them.
Without any abnormality, the beam of light disappeared again in an instant, indicating a successful verification.
"This seems to have the same principle as the Tianxuan Locking Spirit Array." Li Fan thought to himself as he followed the others into the spatial passage.
A feeling of dizziness suddenly came over him.
It felt extremely similar to long-distance teleportation, as if time and space were stretched and perception was distorted.
In the next moment, it was like being ripped out of a membrane that covered the entire body. Li Fan fell into a strange space. All colors faded in an instant, and everything in sight was gray and white.
Black lines whizzed from a distant horizon, brushing against everyone's bodies, some even passing through, racing towards the infinite distance.
White lines shot out from either above or below, heading in the opposite direction.
Occasionally, black and white lines collided, intertwining until they eventually formed a void point.
The duration of the void point varied.
Some lasted for moments, some for several breaths, still existing. But in the end, they would all be completely annihilated.
Just as everyone was staring at the somewhat surreal and fantastical scene before them, their heads spun, and their perspective was suddenly elevated. They saw that this world was nearly boundless.
Black and white lines seemed to move rapidly without any pattern, yet also seemed to follow some kind of rules. They collided, mingled, and void points were born and extinguished in a constant blink. Lost in this magnificent scene, it took a long time for everyone to return to their senses.
"It is said that all the secrets of the world are hidden in this black and white. Unfortunately, I am incompetent and cannot comprehend it," Ji Hongdao's somewhat regretful voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"Let's go, the newborn mirror is just ahead."
Ji Hongdao casually grabbed a passing black line, and in an instant, his figure disappeared along with the black line, vanishing from everyone's sight.
Seeing this, the students followed suit, grabbing the black lines passing by them.
As if he had become one with the black line, the originally fast-moving gray world slowed down considerably in Li Fan's eyes.
Moving towards the distant goal, any white lines they encountered seemed to have self-awareness and would actively avoid them.
Li Fan observed the scenery along the way with amazement.
After who knows how long, they arrived at the edge of this gray world. The black lines faded and disappeared, and one by one, everyone returned to their original state. Ahead, there was a colorful halo that seemed out of place in the gray-white world.
It felt like it had been a long time since they had last seen color.
When Li Fan saw the churning and twisting colors not far away, he inexplicably felt a sense of nausea and disgust.
Black and white clashed and collided against the colors.
Although no sound was emitted, Li Fan could feel two powerful forces competing and trembling in space.
In the confrontation, part of the colorful mass seemed to be cut off by the gray.
Losing its original colors, it became gray, quietly floating at the edge of space. After a long time, a faint flash of light appeared on it simultaneously.
Originally gray-white, it began to slowly become somewhat crystalline and translucent.
Ji Hongdao didn't speak, but all the students understood that what they were seeing was the birth process of the Tianxuan Mirror's newborn mirror.
They all focused their minds and carefully comprehended.
Li Fan was slightly stunned. First, he looked around, then sensed his own body's condition. He couldn't help but fall into contemplation. Time seemed to be accelerated.
The light continued to flicker, and the gray disappeared completely. One by one, new mirrors were born.
Some stayed in place after being born, while others suddenly disappeared, heading to unknown destinations. But overall, the vast majority floated at the edge of the gray world.
The number of mirrors accumulated more and more.
Eventually, at a certain moment.
Countless black and white threads surged from the gray world towards the newborn mirrors.
Black and white intertwined, like the most exquisite loom, quickly weaving clothes for these newborns. When the mirrors were completely covered by the weaving of black and white threads, black and white merged in an instant.
A smooth ball with chaotic black and white coloration appeared.
"This is the formation core of the Tianxuan Locking Spirit Array," Ji Hongdao's voice sounded just right.
"Did you all see it clearly?" The voice suddenly drifted away. All the surrounding scenes froze.
They all shattered.
