When a mysterious man dressed in black and wearing a skull mask suddenly appeared in front of me, looking me up and down with his black "eyes", I also looked at him carefully with curiosity.

I was amazed by the fact that this man seemed to be right in front of me, but he had an ethereal feeling, as if what was in front of me was just an illusory image.

I even have the illusion that this man in black butler is not actually in this magic mirror, but in a very distant, distant world!

With this doubt, I subconsciously closed my eyes and turned on the soul clairvoyance ability, wanting to use the powerful ability of the soul clairvoyance to find out.

Unexpectedly, what I saw next made me feel incredible!

Because when my soul clairvoyance ability penetrated the mask of the man in black in front of me and saw through the appearance inside, I found that there was no human face I expected inside.

What appeared in front of my eyes was a pitch-black space, and in the space there was a glowing ancient book floating quietly in the air, the title of the ancient book was "The Magic Mirror of Time and Space".

Instinctively, I used my soul's clairvoyance ability to open the cover of this ancient book and read it page by page, and although the words inside were extremely ancient, I still roughly understood the contents.

"You're not a human being! It's just an ancient book called "The Magic Mirror of Time and Space"? Could it be that you are the Magic Mirror!"

After reading the contents of the ancient book inside the mask of the man in black in front of me, I suddenly opened my eyes and shouted.

After listening to what I said, the imperial grandmother and the palace maids beside me all stared at me in surprise, and then looked at the man in black, obviously not understanding what was wrong with me and why I suddenly said such inexplicable words.

Only the man in black continued to look at me very calmly, and after a long time, he nodded and said to me in an extremely appreciative tone: "Well, you can teach me! No wonder I have so much confidence to be my master. That's right, I'm the Magic Mirror, to be exact, I'm actually the soul of the book "The Magic Mirror of Time and Space". You know, child, for as long as I can remember, no one has ever been able to see through me for what I really am. It seems that you are indeed qualified to participate in my assessment. If you can survive my assessment and become my master, I will definitely assist you in enlightening your soul and make your immortal cultivation realm reach the highest level that the world has never heard of!

"What! You're the Magic Mirror, didn't you say you're the Magic Mirror's butler?"

My imperial grandmother couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, when you signed the symbiote contract with us, you also called yourself the butler of the magic mirror?"

Several other palace maids also asked puzzled.

"Haha, everyone, don't be impatient. Now that I've been spotted today, I might as well say it bluntly. Many years ago, when I vaguely became conscious, I realized that I was just an ancient book. It's also an ancient book buried in an underground tomb. Of course, I am not willing to be silent forever in this dark and boring ancient tomb. So, I began to try to absorb the meager aura in the ancient tomb for cultivation, and after about countless failures, and after an extremely long period of evolution, I finally turned into the soul body in the form of a man in black today. And that ancient book became the brain of my illusory human form. ”

The man in black replied with a loud laugh, and his tone was also quite emotional, as if he had waited extremely hard for this day.

After a slight pause, he continued, "After becoming a soul body, I was also excited for a long time at first, wandering around the ancient tombs all day long, and reading many other ancient books. Only then did I know that I was actually in a small ancient tomb, and the outside world was bigger and more exciting. In this case, of course, I was not willing to be trapped in the tomb forever, so I began to look around for a way to get out of the tomb. It's a pity that the tomb is sealed so tightly that no matter how hard I try, it's all in vain. It wasn't until one day that three tomb robbers came and dug up the ancient tomb, and I was able to see the light of day again. I came to the outside world as I wished. It's just that what I didn't think about was ......"

The man in black paused again as if he had suddenly remembered an extremely painful memory.

"What happened?" asked a palace maid impatiently.

"Presumably, when you went to the outside world, everyone outside became dying, right?"

I guessed casually.

"Ah, why did everyone become dying when he went to the outside world?" asked the maid, puzzled.

"That's because he emitted the Qi of Extreme Yin to the outside world, if I'm not mistaken, that ancient tomb is where the Land of Extreme Yin is located, and that ancient book called "Time and Space Magic Mirror" has the effect of suppressing the Land of Extreme Yin. As a result, after he left the ancient tomb without authorization, he lost his suppression of the Extreme Yin Land, so that the Extreme Yin Qi spread everywhere, which caused the outside world to be filled with the Extreme Yin Qi, thus making all living beings dying. ”

I blurted out and replied that the reason why I am so sure is because I read the contents of that ancient book just now, and what is recorded is the relationship between the magic mirror and the extreme yin land.

"Oh, how did you guess that? Did you just see not only the name of the ancient book, but also the contents of it?"

The man in black also asked with some extreme surprise after listening to what I said.

"That's right, I just read the contents of the ancient books. It mentions that the Space-Time Mirror is the only entrance to the Land of the Extreme Yin. Do not open it at will, otherwise it will be ruined. And once it is accidentally opened, unless you find the owner who can control the magic mirror, you can re-close the Extreme Yin Land. Or using the method of imprisoning the symbiotes can also temporarily suppress the Extreme Yin Land, but it is not a long-term solution. Am I right?"

I nodded in acknowledgement.

"That's right! Now you should understand that the reason why you're here is actually to help me suppress the Extreme Yin Land, right? However, with his appearance, it may not be long before you can leave the Magic Mirror forever and live a free life. Of course, the premise is that he can really pass my life and death trials and become my master. So, do you really have the confidence that you will survive my test?"

The man in black looked at my imperial grandmother and the palace maids, and replied approvingly.

After that, he looked at me meaningfully, waiting for my answer.

"Since you also think that my family Yang'er is different, and you can see that your true face is actually an ancient book, and you also have the ability to absorb the qi of extreme yin, then why don't you directly recognize him as the master, and what kind of life and death tribulation do you have to use to test him?

Before I could answer, my grandmother said it for me.

"Hey, don't you know that the Extreme Yin Qi that is constantly generated in this Extreme Yin Land, if you just absorb it, you can't permanently resolve its harm to the outside world. Because there is the possibility that everything will be reversed. This means that it is very likely that one day this land of extreme yin will suddenly reverse and become the land of extreme yang due to the accumulation of yin qi to a certain extent. At that time, not only those of you who can only absorb the Qi of the Extreme Yin will die. Even the outside world will be wiped out by the massive accumulation and explosion of Yang Qi in the Land of the Extreme Sun. So if you want to really solve it once and for all, it makes sense to find someone who has the ability to absorb both the Extreme Yang Qi and the Extreme Yin Qi. In other words, if you want to be my master, you must be a person with both yin and yang souls that are very powerful. ”

The man in black explained with a sigh.

"I see. But you just have to think of a safe way to test whether he has the soul of yin and yang, why do you need to use some life and death tribulations to test?"

The imperial grandmother suddenly realized, and asked casually and unwillingly.

That's because once I confess the Lord, I can never change my master. And the stronger the master, the stronger I will be. But if the owner unfortunately dies, then I will also disappear and be buried with me. So of course, I have to pass the most demanding test and choose a master with strong ability and stronger vitality. Another point is that I am still a space-time magic mirror, with the ability to travel through time and space. Then if I want to use my magic to the fullest, I have to travel through time and space often. And time travel itself is extremely risky, requiring extremely high physical strength, so if you want to become the master of my dignified magic mirror, if you have a weak physique and fragile vitality, even if you become my master, you will only die quickly. It's better to be an ordinary person and maybe live a long life. That's all I have to say, kid, are you still going to take my test, and if you decide to give up now, I'll send you out of the mirror safely and continue to live the life you want. Or if you decide to participate, but you still have questions, you can also ask them now, and I will answer you one by one. ”

The man in black replied in a somewhat solemn tone, obviously he was extremely cautious about this question.

After listening to the words of the man in black, I was quite interested in the ability of this space-time magic mirror to travel through time and space, because I knew that there are many things in a person's life, which are often irreversible.

Once it passes, it will always become a regret, and even some truths will be buried because of this, so if I can have the ability to travel through time and space after becoming the master of the magic mirror, wouldn't it be able to re-resolve and clarify some regrets or grievances.

Naturally, I was extremely looking forward to this, and since this was the case, I replied without hesitation: "Of course I participate, and before I start the test, I just want to ask one last question, that is, once I become your master, will my imperial grandmother and them be able to unconditionally break the symbiote contract, immediately leave the magic mirror, and go to the outside world to live the life they want?"

"That's nature, then you are the master of the magic mirror, and you have the final say in everything. If you have no objections and are ready, walk into this circle, and the test will officially begin. ”

The man in black replied without hesitation, casually drawing a red circle of light with a diameter of one meter on the ground as he spoke.

"Okay, then please start the test, I'm ready!"

I also said cheerfully, and after I finished speaking, I nodded to the worried imperial grandmother beside me, suggesting that she could rest assured.

Then, I strode into the red circle of light, only to see a burst of red light, and I instantly lost consciousness......
