I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

After talking with Renea for a while and understanding some matters, the girl took her leave.

Watching the girl's hesitant figure fade from view, Xue Jing sat down where he stood, placing the bowl of water he held onto the flat rock beside him.

He then picked up the Crouching Rabbit Sword and cut a piece of meat from the Flame Wailing Dragon's corpse, skewering it on the blade.

Shadow Flame ignited, erasing all the blood from the meat, and he took a bite.

"So tough."

Xue Jing bit down hard on the meat in his mouth, chewed for quite a while, his cheeks starting to ache before he could finally grind the meat into pieces.

"The taste is also weird."

For some reason, the dragon meat had a sour taste similar to that of a plant.

"Forget it, I'm not eating this crap."

He flicked the Crouching Rabbit Sword, the Power vibrating, shaking off all the stains from it, and then sheathed the blade.

After that, he took out a compressed biscuit from his backpack and started munching on it.

The Mirror Person reflected in the water, originally crouched down hugging its own legs in self-isolation, couldn't help but speak after seeing Xue Jing leisurely eating, "Why do you look so unworried?"

"We might be stuck in these Intersecting Boundaries forever..."

Xue Jing glanced at it and chuckled, saying, "You don't seem to have much confidence in me."

After a moment of silence, the Mirror Person said, "It's not that I lack confidence in you... Your ability to hunt a high-danger level Dragon Breed on your own is sufficient proof of your impressive skill."

"But Pureblood Dragon Species are different, the level of terror of such creatures is unlike any Dragon Breed you have faced. Those are 'True Dragons'."

The Mirror Person's tone was very solemn.

"Among all Beings of the Intersecting Boundaries, aside from some special entities, they are the closest to being 'god-like'!"

It looked up at Xue Jing through its reflection in the water.

"You're very young to have the power to defeat high-danger level Dragon Breeds at your age is quite extraordinary. In the over two hundred years since my birth, I have seen countless talented humans, very few can match you at the same age, and I've only seen maybe fifty or so who were stronger than you."

Xue Jing jested, "That seems like quite a lot."

The Mirror Person glared at him, "Don't interrupt."

"I've lived for over two hundred years. In such an extended period, I couldn't tell you how many great figures have been recorded in the history books, those who could match or even surpass you are even rarer than the ones in those books!"

Xue Jing stroked his chin, "Now that you put it that way, I feel much better."

The Mirror Person crossed its arms, "But even a genius like you hoping to kill a Pureblood Dragon Species, even just a young one, is nothing but wishful thinking."

"Just dealing with the 'Dragon Thunder,' which all Pureblood Dragon Species can wield, and their powerful bodies will be challenging, not to mention their Core Organs have unique abilities."

"If it's one of those abilities that are exceptionally suited for combat, then the level of danger climbs several notches higher."

Xue Jing smiled, "I have to try, don't I?"

The Mirror Person tilted its head, "Judging by your demeanor, it seems you're not blindly confident in your power to defeat a Pureblood Dragon Species... Do you have some other source of confidence?"

Xue Jing replied, "Of course I do, you will see when the time comes..."

Changing the subject, he added, "Speaking of which, can you only stay in the water? That seems very inconvenient."

The Mirror Person replied, "As long as there's a 'Mirror Surface' that can reflect images, I can enter it."

It glanced at the black wristband on Xue Jing's wrist.

That was the recording wristband given to him by Doctor Shen, its surface material resembled the screen of a black mobile phone, smooth enough to be used as a mirror, qualifying as a 'Mirror Surface.'

The Mirror Person's figure vanished from the reflection in the water, and the next moment, its voice came from Xue Jing's wristband.

"As long as the two 'Mirror Surfaces' can reflect each other, I can move freely between them. I'll stay here from now on."

Xue Jing extended his arm to look at the black wristband.

His figure was reflected on its smooth black surface, and because the wristband was curved, the mirror was a 'Convex Mirror,' which made the reflection of Xue Jing appear twisted.

The Mirror Person, resembling a little boy, sat on his shoulder, distorted for the same reason.

"Although I don't know what you're relying on, let's pretend the dead ant is a live one, and let's see how far you can go," it said.

Xue Jing corrected, "It's 'A drowning man will clutch at a straw.'"

The Mirror Person pouted, "Of course I know. Can't you tell I was making a joke? You're quite the young man, but too stiff for my taste."

Xue Jing raised an eyebrow, "Being called stiff by someone of your age feels quite peculiar."

The Mirror Person huffed, "I am not like you humans, not subject to emotion driven by hormonal secretions, my age does not bring age or decay, neither in body nor in spirit."

At these words, Xue Jing's curiosity was piqued.

He asked, "By the way, what is your own perception of yourselves as Divine Relics? Do you see yourselves as 'God's offspring'?"

Upon hearing this, the Mirror Person stretched out its hand and shook its forefinger, saying, "Not at all, Divine Relic is just a concept you humans have imposed on me, and I don't acknowledge it."

"After the death of the gods, Divine Blood was scattered throughout the world, residing in all things, leading to the birth of Divine Relics... This is the most accepted theory by humans at present, but as 'Divine Relics,' we don't have such memories."

"For example, when I came into being, I was as clueless as a human infant, and it was only after observing you humans for a long time within a mirror that I gradually learned your language and started to form some understanding."
