Tower of Origin: I Evolve All Rewards

Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Mirror Ice Heart

The settlement of Frozen Mirror Pass appeared beneath the Ice Gate Shrine.

The shrine bells rang without sound, and the frozen mirror arch behind them dissolved into pale-blue light.

[Floor 16: Frozen Mirror Pass]

[Main Mission: Cross Frozen Mirror Pass and reach Ice Gate Shrine — Completed.]

The panel flashed.

Qin Mo exhaled.

"Frozen, confused, but victorious."

The rewards appeared.

A Grade Cold Resistance Fruit x3

Additional hidden puzzle reward:

[S Grade True Reflection Crystal x1]

Qin Yuheng’s gaze stopped on the Mirror Ice Heart and True Reflection Crystal.

Both were likely valuable for resisting illusions, verifying identity, and perhaps protecting against Blood Sun’s deception traps.

The team returned to the academy under pale-blue light.

After medical inspection, Yu Qingmei seemed particularly interested in the reflection identity collapse sub-mission.

"You cleared it without any member losing identity stability?"

"Yes."

"How?"

"Physical rope, silent communication, memory anchors, and refusing false reflections."

Qin Mo added, "Also doing things we hate."

Yu Qingmei looked at him.

Qin Mo sighed.

"It worked."

She wrote that down.

Qin Mo looked alarmed.

"Please do not make that a formal method."

Too late.

At the Qin Estate, Qin Yuheng inspected the rewards privately.

The Frozen Mirror Pass Chest evolved first.

[S Grade Frozen Mirror Pass Chest]

↓

[SSS Grade Ancient True Mirror Ice Chest]

Opening it produced:

[SSS Grade True Mirror Ice Heart x1]

[SS Grade Skill Book: Mirror-Breaking Thunder Step x1]

[SS Grade Frozen Soul Reflection Shield x1]

[S Grade Identity Anchor Crystal x1]

[S Grade Ice Spirit Cloak x1] ƒreewebɳovel.com

The Identity Anchor Crystal was immediately important.

He enhanced it.

[S Grade Identity Anchor Crystal]

↓

[SSS Grade True Self Soul Anchor Crystal]

Effect:

[Protects against identity erosion, reflection replacement, dream personality distortion, possession attempts, and false memory implantation.]

Qin Yuheng brought it to Qin Wanshan.

The old man’s expression became solemn.

"This is a treasure against many dark methods."

Mu Qinglan agreed.

"Place it near Zhengyuan’s treatment chamber when not in use. Blood Sun methods may involve memory contamination."

Qin Zhengyuan looked at the crystal.

"Use it for the younger generation too."

Qin Yuheng nodded.

The Qin family now had several defensive treasures:

Ancient Silent Bell Heart.

Voice-Soul Guard Crystal.

Eternal Dream-Waking Soul Lamp.

True Self Soul Anchor Crystal.

Stormglass Barrier Core.

Sovereign Beacon Command Crystal.

Slowly, the estate was becoming a fortress not of walls, but of layered laws.

Qin Mo began integrating minor resonance from the True Self Soul Anchor Crystal into family training rooms. He warned everyone not to touch the main crystal casually.

Qin Xue’er asked if it could stop bad dreams.

Qin Mo said, "Probably."

She smiled and asked if it could stop Qin Yuze from lying about stealing snacks.

Qin Mo said, "That requires a different artifact."

Meanwhile, Qin Yuheng inspected the A Grade Mirror Ice Heart.

He chose Quantity Multiplication.

[A Grade Mirror Ice Heart x1]

↓

[A Grade Mirror Ice Heart x95]

These could be used for anti-illusion equipment, formation arrays, and mental clarity pills.

Again, family foundation.

Then he enhanced one Reflection-Breaking Stone.

[A Grade Reflection-Breaking Stone]

↓

[SS Grade True Reflection Severing Stone] ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

This item could break high-grade mirror illusions and expose false bodies.

He kept it for personal use.

Outside the Qin Estate, Blood Sun Hall’s watchers found fewer and fewer openings. Dream traps were less useful. Voice lures were less useful. Reflection methods were now likely less useful. Contracts had already failed.

Xue Rong’s frustration deepened.

Every floor Qin Yuheng cleared closed another door of attack.

But it also revealed something.

Qin Yuheng prepared according to recent experiences. If Blood Sun could predict his next preparation, perhaps they could prepare beyond it.

Floor 17 information soon appeared.

[Floor 17: Crimson Sand Arena]

Type:

Combat tournament / survival ranking / public arena.

Known features:

Multiple climber teams may enter parallel arena instances.

Victory points determine rewards.

Possible forced duels.

Public combat.

Blood Sun smiled again.

If capture through traps failed, public combat pressure might still force Qin Yuheng to reveal more.

And if the arena allowed outside challengers as temporary shadows...

There might be another way in.
