Chapter 29 My shadow was born in the mirror

A pitch-black feather pierces the shadow's heart... or rather, the shadow's core.

Shadow struggled and squirmed painfully.

Looking at the person holding the feather with eyes full of fear, anger, and hatred.

its body.

It is also the person who gave it life, but immediately wanted to kill it.

But before the creator of the Ritual of Shadow Binding carefully designed the murder weapon used to kill the shadow.

It has no power to fight back.

Life goes by, it is dying.

When the last bit of life dissipated, the shadow faded and dissipated with a strong unwillingness.

The moonlight chains also dissipated.

"The most dangerous step in the ritual of shadow binding is the process of activating and killing one's own shadow..."

"If the shadow escapes accidentally, not only will the caster suffer backlash, but the escaped shadow will also turn into a haunting nightmare for the caster throughout his life..."

"Fortunately, this step doesn't seem to be a problem to me."

Jiang Ge retracted the hand holding the pitch-black feather.

And under the moonlight, the ground beside him was empty and there was nothing.

Shadow was killed by himself.

He became a shadowless man.

This is obviously contrary to common sense.

He has vaguely felt the rejection from the laws of the world.

There seemed to be some kind of power around, ready to move, to transform him into something inhuman.

Moreover, this transformation does him no good at all.

"Move faster."

Jiang Ge flicked the pitch-black feather with his fingers.

This seemingly incomparably sharp feather is surprisingly fragile in texture.

It was just a light flick, and a crack appeared on the feather.

Immediately afterwards, with this crack as the center, countless cracks were derived and spread to the entire feather.

There was a crisp cracking sound.

The pitch-black feathers were completely shattered and turned into countless black crystal dust, which fell on the place where the shadow died just now.

"The murder weapon that kills the shadow, it is stained with the blood of the shadow, and it is broken into dust, which can make the body of the dead shadow show its whereabouts..."

I saw pitch black crystal dust floating.

On the originally empty ground, a curled up human-shaped imprint slowly emerged.

Jiang Ge also looked at this scene with some curiosity.

If there is still a trace of Moon's Mirror Ritual.

The content involved in the Shadow Binding Ceremony has far exceeded the cognition of mortals.

Follow the steps, next.

He needs to bury the body of his shadow on this dead land transformed by rituals,

With the river of blood flowing under the earth, its new life is bred with endless vitality.

This is the alternation of yin and yang, the cycle of life and death.

When life sprouts, the shadow will return to life.

The ceremony will be completed.

At that point, his shadow is no longer the same as that of a mortal.

You will gain the hidden power that can interfere with the present world.

Jiang Ge bent down and picked up Shadow's corpse.

The human-shaped imprint is not a real thing.

There was nothing in Jiang Ge's hand, but he felt that he was really holding something.

"The next step is to bury..."

Jiang Ge came to the center of the ceremony venue with the shadow's body in his hands.

He was about to make a move, but suddenly stopped.

Because in the center of the venue, there is a bronze mirror reflecting the brilliance of the moon.

That was supposed to be where he buried his shadow.

"The orthodox Shadow Binding Ceremony does not involve the participation of the "Moon". It directly buries the dead shadows in the earth, allowing the earth to breed its vitality..."

"So should I remove the mirror?"

"No, there seems to be something wrong with this ceremony!"

Jiang Ge frowned slightly.

At this point in the ceremony, he gradually realized the essence of the ceremony.

The ritual of shadow binding is to kill one's own shadow first.

Then pray for a certain power that exists in the dark, push the wheel of life and death, cross the boundary between yin and yang, bring the shadow back to life, and gain power beyond the common sense of the world...

In other words, the root of the Shadow Binding Ritual has nothing to do with shadows.

Instead, it symbolizes life and death.

The creator of the Ritual of Shadow Binding probably borrowed from a resurrection ritual involving life and death, and transformed the Ritual of Shadow Binding to resurrect the shadow.

The dead land and the river of blood are just appearances, a tool used to attract the power of that being.

With just a few liters of blood and some mundane materials, it is obviously not enough to revive the shadow.

What can really revive the shadow is the power from that great existence.

And this also means that the Ritual of Shadow Binding actually requires two copies of [Secret Biography].

One part is used to bind the shadow, and the other part is used to turn the wheel of life and death.

"No, maybe the power of the being prayed for in the Shadow Binding Ritual can achieve these two effects at the same time..." Jiang Ge speculated.

But in this way, his previous deduction went wrong.

Because the "moon" can bind the shadow, but it does not control life and death.

And he didn't get the [Secret Biography] of the existence pointed to by the Shadow Binding Ritual.

There is no way to talk about praying for its power...

"It's troublesome."

Jiang Ge rolled his eyes around.

Rejection from the world is intensifying.

The strange power lingering around is also approaching bit by bit.

He must make a decision as soon as possible.

Otherwise, what awaits him will become something inhuman.

"The shadow is the reflection of the soul, and the soul grows and dies on the earth..."

"The earth..."

"Mother of the majestic earth and mountains, Lord Shanhai Yuan, [Secret of the Herb Picker]?"

"Maybe I can pray for His power to come..."

However, just when Jiang Ge was about to try, borrowing the power of Shanhai Yuanjun.

Blurred moonlight shed.

In a daze, Jiang Ge raised his head.

He seemed to see the originally incomplete moon quickly becoming full.

There was a faint fragrance of laurel in the air.

There seemed to be a cold voice whispering in his ear.

It was Yue's whisper, telling him the secret that no one knew——

"Not every soul is born on the earth, the moon is born in the mirror..."

A look of surprise flashed in Jiang Ge's eyes.

Indeed, there are always some exceptions in the world.

For example, he, a traveler from another world, or those seven ancient pillars supporting the world...

No hesitation.

Jiang Ge chose to pray for the power of Jingyue.

He is not familiar with Shanhai Yuanjun.

On the contrary, he had seen Yue's real body.

And the whisper just now seemed to be a reminder - it just came out when he was about to pray to Shanhai Yuanjun...

Jiang Ge felt something strange.

However, he is not a ignorant person.

Holding the shadow's corpse in his hand, Jiang Ge came to the bronze mirror.

Bending down, carefully put it into the mirror.

The mirror surface of the bronze mirror seems to have turned into the surface of water.

Ripples rise.

Jiang Ge saw his shadow sinking into an extremely vast lake.

Among the lakes, there are glazed osmanthus trees, majestic palaces, and a round of moon-like figures sitting in the temples.

"The moon is the shadow of the scorching sun, He was born in the mirror..."

"And today, I will reproduce the birth process of Mirror Moon."

"With Yue's permission, my shadow will be allowed to enter the mirror world, wake up there, and then gain a new life..."

The full moon hangs high.

The moon shines.

Jiang Ge saw that the corpse of his shadow in the mirror swelled and filled like a balloon under the moonlight.

From the original pitch-black mark, it turned into an illusory human body almost the same as Jiang Ge.

Then he opened his eyes suddenly, and smiled strangely at Jiang Ge...

Then, Jiang Ge also smiled...
