In the back mountain of Huoyundong, Feng Ye and Yuan Kui stood one after another. Feng Zhong had just emerged from seclusion and came to watch the battle. After all, although it was a friendly match, it would greatly benefit Feng Zhong in the future.
"Yuan Kui, you don't need to hold back. Use your full strength to let me see the power of this treasure mirror!" Feng Ye held the treasure mirror in one hand and said.
"Don't worry!" Yuan Kui clenched his teeth, brandishing the Tenglong Sword. "I'll definitely treat you well!" Then, Yuan Kui raised his sword and a surging river appeared. The endless waters of the Yellow River rushed towards Feng Ye.
However, before the waters of the Yellow River reached Feng Ye, a heavy snowstorm suddenly swept through the blessed land, directly freezing the waters of the Yellow River.
Why did Feng Ye insist on using the Dingshaizhu to simulate the 24 solar terms?
It was because the Dingshaizhu was a supreme treasure of water, gathering primordial water essence. The treasure mirror represented the four seasons. What are the most obvious changes in the four seasons? One is temperature, and the other is precipitation.
Summer is hot with continuous heavy rain, while winter is cold with heavy snow. In spring, there is gentle spring rain, and in autumn, there is brisk autumn rain. Feng Ye, who controlled the four seasons, naturally had to regulate these changes in water vapor. What could be better than the Dingshaizhu for this?
As for temperature, the primordial solar essence in the Wanya Hu could replace the sun to regulate the temperature of the four seasons.
When Yuan Kui saw the river water freeze, he looked at Feng Ye. On the back of the treasure mirror, there were four divine patterns: dragon soaring, tiger crouching, phoenix wings, and turtle coiling. It had 24 silver pearls to assist in the changes of heaven, earth, and weather. In the center of the four divine patterns was a auspicious beast hub. Feng Ye held this hub, holding the treasure mirror and lighting up six silver pearls on the Xuanwu pattern.
A Xuanwu manifestation directly emerged from the back of the mirror, a turtle roar, and heavy snow fell, changing the temperature and sealing the Yellow River.
Seeing that Feng Ye wanted to say something, Yuan Kui sneered. This anger of his wasn't so easily vented.
The ice-encased waters of the Yellow River suddenly broke. A sword aura directly slashed towards Feng Ye. Although it carried no killing intent, if he were really hit, especially in front of his disciple, Feng Ye would lose face.
Isn't it just using my Dingshaizhu? You really hate me that much? Don't forget, most of the Dingshaizhu were provided by me.
While Feng Ye ranted in his mind, he again activated the treasure mirror. A white light flashed on the mirror, brushing away the sword aura, which then dissipated.
Time acceleration, as a spiritual treasure with the law of time, naturally possessed this legendary power. By accelerating time, the sword aura's duration was shifted to a day later. No matter how powerful the sword aura was, its magic power was not enough to last a day, so it naturally dissipated.
Then, Feng Ye activated the treasure mirror, and a stream of golden light flew out, transforming into golden arrows that shot towards Yuan Kui.
Yuan Kui took out the Dingshaizhu, recited a divine spell, and summoned the waters of heaven and earth, forming a water screen in front of him.
However, when the golden light hit the water screen, the water screen turned into droplets and scattered back into the heavens.
Seeing that the golden arrows penetrated the water screen and attacked him, Yuan Kui's face changed. He revealed his dragon head, transformed into a human-dragon hybrid, and breathed out a dragon's breath to dispel the golden arrows.
Seeing the steam continuously evaporating from the gap in the water screen, Yuan Kui was taken aback. "Is this the light of the sun? Or the golden arrows of the sun?"
As mentioned earlier, the treasure mirror can regulate temperature, relying on the primordial solar essence within, which can naturally be used to transform solar powers.
"Friend Daoist, indeed you have great insight! Controlling the changes of the four seasons, how can one not regulate temperature? Moreover, this light of the sun is transformed from the primordial solar essence in the Wanya Hu. What do you think?"
"Controlling the four seasons, summoning wind and rain, regulating temperature and precipitation, all under your command, quite impressive! How about this!" Yuan Kui shook the Hetu, forming the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array, directly enveloping Feng Ye.
Before Feng Ye could steady himself, the Bewitching Immortal Talisman and the Confusing Spirit Spell were cast at him.
You want to deplete my magic power! How much do you hate me? Feng Ye shook his head, tapped the edge of the treasure mirror, and a clear, pleasant sound like a bell rang out.
Then, a stream of golden light appeared at the edge of the mirror. The star cloud patterns and the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches divine texts trembled. A yellowish-brown aura shot out, directly dispelling the talismans and spells.
Then, Feng Ye unleashed his full power, tapping the treasure mirror, which emitted a white light. A ripple spread from the mirror, gradually enveloping the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array and everything around it.
Seeing the time domain of the treasure mirror envelop the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array, Feng Ye pointed and said, "Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth. Under the power of time, everything dissipates!"
Instantly, the great array dissipated. However, to say it dissipated is not entirely correct; it should be said that it decayed. Under the erosion of time, all the formations turned to dust.
Yuan Kui drew a deep breath, "Time domain?"
The laws of the primordial world are extremely solid. Truly changing the flow of time in the primordial world is impossible. At least Feng Ye cannot do it now, and even Fuxi does not have this power. As for the few sages, no one knows, as this is taboo.
Even if one had the power to change the flow of time in the primordial world, the sages would likely invite you for tea before you could complete it. Where you would be after the tea, the beings of the primordial world would not know.
Even the time witch ancestor, Zhu Jiuyin, only controlled a time domain, covering and manipulating the time within that domain. He did not dare to apply his power to the entire primordial world, interfering with the operation of heaven and earth.
The Nine-Bend Yellow River Array, although controlled by Yuan Kui, was just a friendly match. Although Yuan Kui said he wouldn't spare Feng Ye, he did not have any killing intent and did not use much power. The array was just formed when it was directly decayed by the time domain.
Seeing the array broken, another ripple returned to the treasure mirror. "This is the time domain, using the power of the treasure mirror to manipulate the time within a certain range. What do you think?"
"Indeed, it has a bit of the style of the old Zhu Jiuyin, and even rivals the great god Zhu Long!"
Hearing Yuan Kui's praise, Feng Ye was taken aback, then shook his head. "You really dare to say that. Zhu Jiuyin is one thing, but the great god Zhu Long is a powerful being from the beginning of the world, revered as one of the creator gods. How easy is it to surpass them? Their mastery of the path of time far exceeds mine."
"Brother Daoist, you are too modest. They use the law of time by themselves, while you use a spiritual treasure. Although the power may not be as great, it is safer. You won't suffer the backlash of time like they did, becoming old and decrepit!" Yuan Kui said, "By the way, does this treasure mirror have any other transformations?"
Feng Ye thought for a moment, then shook the treasure mirror, which emitted a white light and hit a nearby tree. Instantly, the tree bloomed, leaves fell, and after a few cycles, it bore fruit. Feng Ye picked a fruit and threw it to Yuan Kui. "What do you think?"
Yuan Kui took a bite and felt it. "It's no different from a naturally grown fruit, even the spiritual energy is the same!"
"Although I cannot directly change the time law of the entire primordial world, I can apply it to a specific object."
"Then can it also be applied to a person, accelerating their aging and causing their death? That would be a good technique!" Yuan Kui immediately saw the lethal move.
"You really have a vivid imagination!" Feng Ye laughed bitterly. "You don't believe that we, as Golden Immortals, have endless lifespans. This technique is only useful against cultivators below the Golden Immortal level!"
"Then can it also be used to eliminate their magic power?" Not dealing with Golden Immortals, what a joke. Such a powerful law, how could it just bully Celestial Immortals and Immortal Adepts? So, Yuan Kui came up with another idea.
"It can, but why do you always think about combat? Actually, there is a greater benefit you haven't seen."
What benefit? Regulating precipitation and temperature, changing the solar terms, accelerating time, and opening a time domain. What else can it do? Yuan Kui asked, then said to himself, "Right, if accelerating time is possible, then pausing time should also be possible, and this is even simpler! This way, when someone attacks you, you can pause it, and then attack when you're ready. That's cheating!"
"The most difficult is time reversal! Pausing time is possible, but it consumes a lot of magic power. Using a medium, the treasure mirror can show the past of an object, which is the best!"
Yuan Kui raised an eyebrow. "Is that possible?"
"Completely changing the time law of heaven and earth to reverse time is not feasible, but using the time law in the treasure mirror to trace back to the origin is possible." Saying this, Feng Ye cut into Yuan Kui's divine body, extracted a drop of essence blood, and put it into the treasure mirror.
The mirror surface first emitted a white light, then began to show some images, starting from the sparring with Yuan Kui and tracing back to the moment Yuan Kui became the River God, all replayed in reverse.
The mirror did not stop there, and eventually, it showed some deeds of the Nine-Headed Human Emperor. However, when it traced back to the ancient times, the mirror suddenly dimmed.
"Ultimately, the magic power is not enough," Feng Ye sighed. "Theoretically, any stone from the ground can be traced back to the moment it became a stone, and even further back to the material before it became a stone. Theoretically, it can trace back to the beginning of the world, as everything is composed of primordial energy."
Yuan Kui was stunned. "So, anything that happened in the past can be traced back? That means any historical event is no longer a secret to you!"
"Indeed, but the further back in time, the more magic power it consumes. Even now, I can only trace back to the ancient times, not the primordial times. Moreover, powerful beings will cover their past to prevent others from discovering it, making it difficult to investigate. And this investigation requires a medium, like the drop of essence blood you provided."
Seeing Yuan Kui deep in thought, Feng Ye said, "What do you think? Considering this, the treasure mirror is much more valuable than the Dingshaizhu!"
Yuan Kui pouted. "Forget it, the Dingshaizhu is broken, but you still gave me one. You don't even feel the loss of a top-tier spiritual treasure, why should I be anxious! After all, you paid with over a dozen Dingshaizhu!"
"By the way, what's the name of this treasure mirror?"
" Haven't thought of one yet! Why don't you name it?"
Yuan Kui took the treasure mirror, looked at the four divine patterns on the back, and touched the star cloud patterns on the edge. "This thing controls time, so it should have a 'Chen' character. It also controls the calendar, so it should have a 'Tian' character. Adding the names of the four divine beings, let's call it the Four Divine Beings Chen Tian Mirror!"
