15: Eye of Heaven

An eye!!!

An eye never seen before, one that once seen, would be unforgettable for an eternity!!!

It was vast, desolate, ethereal, distant, indifferent, merciless, viewing Heaven and Earth as mere straw dogs, and living beings as ants; all-encompassing, omnipresent, from the smallest dust motes to the grandest universe, one glance spanning billions and billions of years!!!

Countless stars rose and fell, brightening and dimming, nebulae gathered and dispersed, black holes spewed jets, planets exploded and new stars were born, lightning flashed and thunder roared, wind and rain poured down, volcanoes erupted and the earth shook, civilizations rose and fell, living beings underwent Reincarnation…

Everything, in this instant, flooded Long Yuan's mind. Even with his strong Soul Power and high intelligence, he couldn't fully process it in a flash. What terrified him even more was that this eye suddenly moved!

It suddenly transformed into a beam of light, shooting "whoosh" into his glabella, disappearing in a flash!

Long Yuan was fortunate that he had already frozen, his thoughts almost stagnant, otherwise he would have been scared to death!

After this eye integrated into Long Yuan's glabella, he remained frozen, as if billions and billions of years had passed. Then, in a certain instant, he suddenly woke up, his eyes slowly opening. A desolate and distant aura swept past, and the agile expression of a young man, which was originally his, re-emerged…

He clenched his fist, exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi, and seemed to have wisdom in his grasp, full of confidence. His entire demeanor was almost that of a different person compared to his previous weakling image!

Because during the time this eye integrated into his body, astonishing changes occurred within him. His entire Physique underwent a profound cleansing of meridians and marrow, reaching deep into his Soul. Now, his bone structure and Physique had been elevated to an incredible degree. He was like an unpolished jade, emitting a stunning treasure light. After a long period of absorption and precipitation, this treasure light finally slowly receded into his body, making it impossible for outsiders to detect without a thorough examination.

With a thought, Long Yuan's Soul Power in his mind formed Soul Sense and spread out. The entire Heavenly Dao Space was within his sight. From a tiny blade of grass on the prairie, a small insect crawling on it, a grain of sand beneath the grass, to distant forests, rivers, lakes, oceans, abysses, and so on—everything was within his view. If he wished, he could instantly arrive with a single thought. It could be said that the current Heavenly Dao Space was a Domain fully under his control. Within this Domain, he was the absolute master, and all of this was thanks to that eye!

The Heavenly Dao Eye!

Indeed, the eye that brought him such great terror was the Heavenly Dao Eye. But after integrating into his glabella, this eye brought him a pleasant surprise, because he discovered that this Heavenly Dao Eye was the key to controlling this Heavenly Dao Space. Only by undergoing Fusion with this Heavenly Dao Eye could he truly become the master of this Heavenly Dao Space!

Through the Heavenly Dao Eye, he saw that the mountain peak he was on was not a mountain in the traditional sense, but a large tree!

He hadn't seen wrong; it really was a tree, and a small sapling at that, with only two tiny leaves sprouted. The Heavenly Dao Tower was located at the top of the trunk, where a new leaf seemed to be budding…

The Heavenly Dao Eye named this large tree "yu wood."

On the other side of the yu wood, there was an unfathomably deep abyss, but Long Yuan now knew that this abyss was actually a mouth of Devour (devouring). This was an opening manifested by the Great Dao of Devouring within the Heavenly Dao Space. As long as it devoured matter, it could be transformed into energy by the Great Dao of Devouring, feeding back into the Heavenly Dao Space. Currently, this mouth of devouring was extremely important and greatly helpful for the recovery of the Heavenly Dao Space!

This was because the Heavenly Dao Space was actually just a prototype, with limited energy. After carrying him through layers of time and space to this Otherworld (otherworld) Great Ming, its energy was almost exhausted. This was the real reason it remained silent yesterday.

However, what happened today allowed it to catch its breath. Those strange auroras Long Yuan saw were not auroras; they were actually Spiritual Qi tides that occasionally erupted on Blue Star. This was a sign of Spiritual Qi recovery, meaning Blue Star was at a node transitioning from the Profound Qi era to the Spiritual Qi era. Such Spiritual Qi tides had actually occurred many times, starting hundreds of years ago. Blue Star now had the basic conditions for Cultivation, though it wasn't yet obvious. And the people of Blue Star, due to a lack of Legacy, had no idea that the era of Cultivation had quietly arrived!

One can truly Cultivate!

This was Long Yuan's first reaction upon receiving the information from the Heavenly Dao Eye, and his heart was incredibly excited!

He hadn't expected that just yesterday he was wondering, if something like Transmigration could happen, what else couldn't? At the time, he had thought that perhaps in this martial Dao world, there might be Immortals as described in web novels. Unexpectedly, it came true: the Heavenly Dao Eye actually said that Cultivation was truly possible here!

After the Heavenly Dao Eye detected the Spiritual Qi tide, it immediately began to absorb it. Its actions intensified the fluctuations of the Spiritual Qi tide, and the subsequent colorful lightning strike incident was actually caused by it. The mystery was solved, but Long Yuan couldn't explain it to others, so the matter would forever remain a mystery.

Having absorbed this Spiritual Qi tide, the Heavenly Dao Eye recovered some of its abilities, and thus initiated the action of binding a host, making Long Yuan the absolute master of the Heavenly Dao Space. The Heavenly Dao Eye also integrated into his glabella, becoming his third hidden eye.

The power of the Heavenly Dao Eye needs no further explanation. It helped Long Yuan cleanse his meridians and marrow, achieving a Divine-Grade Physique, and this was merely a small test of its capabilities. From the perspective of the Heavenly Dao Eye, nothing would be hidden. It was like an omniscient, holographic eye that could collect all information within a certain range, or specifically gather information on designated individuals or events. As for identifying personal information, Heaven And Earth Treasures, reading books, Cultivation Techniques, and so on, it was all effortless. As long as it was within its information database, Long Yuan could instantly know everything through it!

However, since the Heavenly Dao Eye was still a prototype, its abilities could not yet reach the imagined power. Instead, it would grow as the space grew. For Long Yuan, the most urgent task was to quickly find various materials for the Heavenly Dao Space to devour and transform, replenishing its energy so that the space could continuously improve and grow. This growth would ultimately feed back into his own abilities.

According to the Heavenly Dao Eye's requirements, the materials Long Yuan needed to find were mainly various types of waste, not intact items. For the Great Dao of Devouring, its status was extremely high; it would not deplete the resources of this world, but rather transform waste into useful energy through recycling, thereby ensuring the normal and healthy operation of this world. If it devoured everything, it would become a Demonic Path. Demonic destruction of this world is immense and unsustainable, which is why the Demon Race often launches wars after excessively squandering their own resources, going to harm other worlds and bringing great threats to all sides.

"I didn't expect the war between Immortals and Demons to be about to begin!!!" Long Yuan's heart sank at this thought.

This was an important piece of information revealed by the Heavenly Dao Eye, and it could be said to be a major reason it brought Long Yuan to this otherworld. Long Yuan hadn't expected it to choose him to face this calamity, but he was truly just a weak scholar before. How could he possibly deal with those vicious Demon Race members?

One can only say, Heavenly Dao Eye, you've really misjudged this time…
