The Eternal Eye
墨書 Inktalez
The dark and profound void has always been an eternal presence in the minds of all beings.
However, at this moment, this eternal void seems to be shattered and dissipating as if ignited by countless invisible flames.
Centered around "The Primordial Eye", the void, filled with cracks and flying ashes, is spreading towards an even broader darkness.
Above The Primordial Eye, a OId man Shao with a majestic figure and a cold face stands in the void, quietly observing everything happening before him. Beneath his tightly furrowed brows, a deep and profound starry gaze flashes with a glint of intelligence, as if contemplating something.
The burning void had no breeze, but the man's dark green battle robe moved on its own, as if there were icy winds in the darkness trying to scatter him and the entire void. Upon closer inspection, a completely black long spear also floated beside the man, with a faint black-and-white mist swirling around its body, resembling two intertwined black-and-white dragons.
Invisible darkness made time seem to stand still. The OId man Shao quietly watched the silent burning of the void, his brow furrowed with a hint of imperceptible sadness.
I don't know how long has passed...!
The OId man Shao's tightly furrowed brow relaxed, and a glint of understanding appeared in his eyes, as if the thoughts in his heart had found a resolution...!
At the same time, the black long spear that had been accompanying the man for who knows how many years also sensed its master's intention, extending to a height of ten thousand feet, like a Tianzhu spanning the dark void, towering into the sky!
Suddenly, amidst a resounding roar that echoed through the void, the black long spear transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-long black dragon centered around the man.
The black dragon serpentines in the sky above the shattered The Primordial Eye, then turns back to cast a meaningful glance into the depths of the void, before turning around and, with the middle-aged man in tow, charges toward the disintegrating The Primordial Eye with earth-shattering force.
Bang, bang, bang...! Bang, bang, bang...!
Bang, bang, bang...! Bang, bang, bang...!
Bang, bang, bang...! Bang, bang, bang...!
Brother Chen, Brother Chen...! Wake up!
Brother Chen, Chen Shiyi...! Wake up quickly...! The soul-calling ceremony is about to begin...!
Outside an old wooden house in a small town by the river, a rapid knocking on the door pulled the sleeping teenager back from his dreams.
Indoors, under the dim light, on a somewhat old wooden bed, a well-proportioned and sturdy, sharp-faced, and thin young man stretched and yawned, scratching his messy hair as he opened his eyes.
Staring at the gray and dilapidated ceiling for a moment, he thought about the Ink-black long spear that had turned into a towering dragon by the side of the man in his dream, his eyes filled with longing.
It's this dream again...!
Since the failed soul sacrifice six years ago, every two years, this is the third time the young man has dreamt this dream. Everything in the dream feels so real, as if he is really there. Every time he is there, the young man can't help but feel a surge of excitement.
Especially the Ink-black long spear that can transform into a giant dragon, which makes him particularly fascinated! Sometimes the young man even looks forward to whether his future awakened "soul weapon" can also be a similar long spear!
At that time... holding a long spear! Fighting fierce beasts! Roaming the world in all directions...! Just thinking about it makes one's blood boil...!
However, what puzzled the young man was the profound look in the eyes of the black dragon when it looked back at the void in his dream. He always felt that it was looking at him!
But after some thought, how could that be possible, just a dream!
Shaking his head, the young man shook off these irrelevant thoughts and muttered under his breath, "Fatso, early in the morning, what's with all the ghostly shouting..."
He turned over, got out of bed, and opened the door.
The boy's name is Chen Shiyi, and he is probably around twelve years old. No one can be sure of his exact age, but he should be around twelve years old since he was picked up from the riverbank by the high priest when he was still a baby.
Before the age of six, Chen Shiyi lived in a bone hall specially prepared for orphans in the tribe. After failing to participate in the soul sacrifice for the first time at the age of six, Chen Shiyi moved out on his own and found an abandoned small wooden house by the river to live in.
Today, six more years have passed.
High Priestess Ji Ya once specifically asked Chen Shiyi why he moved out. At that time, Chen Shiyi only said that he was naturally active and couldn't stand the various rules of the ancestral hall, so he ran out.
Ji Ya naturally couldn't believe his words, but seeing the firm and somewhat stubborn look in Chen Shiyi's eyes, he knew that he wouldn't be able to ask anything more by continuing to dig deeper.
Fortunately, although the cabin was a bit run-down, it could still provide shelter from the wind and rain.
Since then, Chen Shiyi began to make a living on his own... Although life was a bit hard, he was happy and content.
Outside the door, a young man who looks about the same age as Chen Shiyi, with a slightly chubby figure, waited for Chen Shiyi to open the door for a long time. He raised a chubby hand and started knocking on the door.
Knocking on the door while urging impatiently, " Chen Shiyi, hurry up! Hurry up...! If we're late, there won't be any good seats left...!"
Inside the door, Chen Shiyi impatiently scratched his somewhat messy hair and replied, "Fatty, stop knocking. If you break the door, Lord Chen will make you stand as a doorkeeper!"
The moment he spoke, Chen Shiyi arrived at the door. Just as he opened the door, the fat man's hand eagerly reached in, grabbed Chen Shiyi's arm, and tried to run out.
Completely disregarding whether Chen Shiyi was still naked...!
Thanks to Chen Shiyi's quick reflexes, just as he was about to be dragged out the door by the fat guy, he managed to grab a coat from the table by the door and put it on, thus avoiding the embarrassment of running around naked in broad daylight.
Running towards the altar with Chen Shiyi, the chubby guy took out two big buns from his chest pocket and handed them to Chen Shiyi. Without waiting for Chen Shiyi to eat the buns, he urged, "Hurry up, hurry up...! If we're late, there won't be any good spots left...!"
Following behind the chubby guy, Chen Shiyi took the buns and stuffed them into his mouth, while using his other hand to straighten out his crooked coat. He said as he ran, "Hey... um... chubby! Um... chubby! What's the rush so early in the morning? It's just a soul-cleansing ceremony! Um...! It's not like it's the first time we've attended. Why the hurry?"
The fat guy suddenly stopped in front and turned around! He raised a short, thick index finger in front of Chen Shiyi, wiggled it left and right, then raised his thumb, pointing to himself, and said, "Hey... wrong, only you are not the first time! This genius awakened his soul at the age of six, and only participated once... hehe...!"
As he spoke, the fat guy's momentum suddenly changed, and he shouted, "Tooth of Destruction...!"
With a loud shout from the fat man, a sudden wave of golden energy appeared in the air. Accompanying the energy wave, a pair of large golden Dragon Head Fist Wraps, surrounded by an ancient bronze halo, appeared behind the fat man.
From the oversized Dragon Head Fist Wraps, it was not difficult to see the fangs protruding from the mouth of the dragon head, which should be what the fat man referred to as the "Tooth of Destruction."
The overall appearance of the Tooth of Destruction is in the shape of a dragon head, and the surrounding golden mysterious runes give the fat man a hint of "domineering" aura.
The vendors selling on the street and the early pedestrians who came out for a walk were suddenly attracted by the "domineering" momentum emanating from the fat man. They all turned to look in this direction, and when they saw the huge golden Dragon Head Fist Wraps appearing behind the fat man, the crowd immediately burst into a whole series of exclamations and screams!
"Soul of life!"
"Soul of life...!"
"Life soul...! Look, look...! It's a life soul...!"
"Wow...! It looks really powerful, with such a big fist. It's probably even bigger than your head, right? If that hits you, you'd probably turn into a pancake!"
In the crowd, someone is gesturing at their companion's head, wanting to see whose is bigger, with excitement and envy in their eyes.
"Go away, my head is not that big."
A young man with a noticeably larger head than others impatiently pushed his companion's hand aside and walked away.
"Soul cultivator...! It's a soul cultivator...! Awakening the soul at such a young age, how amazing!"
"Ah...! Suddenly feeling chubby, silly and cute, I really like it! I want to have a baby monkey with him," a chubby and cute girl in the crowd exclaimed with a charming smile.
The originally quiet street suddenly became bustling.
Chen Shiyi was stuffing buns into his mouth while straightening his clothes. He didn't notice at all that the fat guy suddenly stopped and bumped right into him, causing him to bounce off the fat guy's body and fall to the ground.
Hearing the bursts of exclamation and envy from the crowd around him, the fat guy looked smugly at Chen Shiyi sitting on the ground and said, "How about it, do you see how impressive I am, hehehe...! You tell me, am I impressive or not...! Handsome or not...!"
Chen Shiyi sat on the ground, propped up by both hands, looked up at the fat man with a face that seemed to be asking for a beating, shook his head, and helplessly muttered, "You fatso."
He stood up, brushed off the dust from his buttocks, leisurely picked up the steamed bun that had fallen on the ground, broke off the part that was stuck with dirt, and stuffed a bite into his mouth. Squinting his eyes, he savored the delicious taste. Then, in a flash, Chen Shiyi approached the fat man, grabbed his ear, and said, "You fatso, feeling confident now, huh...! Daring to show off in front of your Lord Chen...! Is your skin itching again...!"
Just now, the imposing and majestic fat man, now looks like a deflated balloon, shrinking his head and crouching, constantly shouting, "Ah...! Ah...! Brother Chen! It hurts... it hurts! It hurts! Let go, let go, give your brother some face, so many people are watching!"
Glance around.
Chen Shiyi stuffed the last steamed bun into his mouth, released his hand from the fat boy's ear, and looked at him askance, saying, "Look at you, with a little bit of potential. You reached the Star Meridian Realm at the age of twelve, which is quite remarkable. Instead of thinking about how to seduce a few girls from the clan, can you set your sights on a bigger goal? When I awaken, I will take you out of this small Xiahou tribe to see a bigger and broader world outside. Then we can eat the fattest meat in the world, drink the strongest wine, and sleep with the most beautiful girls in the world!"
Chen Shiyi was full of enthusiasm and determination, vowing to take the fat boy to eat the fattest meat, drink the strongest wine, and sleep with the most beautiful girls.
However, he did not notice that a woman's delicate foot had silently appeared on his firm and perky buttocks.
The moment the foot made contact with his buttocks, Chen Shiyi let out a sharp "Ah...!" and then flew out in a graceful arc, landing three meters away in a more graceful dog-eating posture.
A very fierce female voice came from behind: "You brat, always bullying my Xun'er. It's been a few days and you've gained more skills, huh? You even want to sleep with the most beautiful girl in the world and drink the strongest wine...! Hmph...! Brat, first check if your hair has grown evenly...?"
No need to guess, from the voice, it's clear that this is the famous fierce woman, Ji Sanniang, from the Xiahou tribe.
Listening to the woman's scolding, Chen Shiyi didn't mind. He got up on all fours like a wild dog and turned around with a playful smile, calling out to the beautiful woman standing next to the fat man, "Auntie San...!"
It's hard to imagine that the extremely fierce voice just now came from the beautiful woman in front of me.
Ji Sanniang patted her son's red ears, which were pinched by Chen Shiyi, and turned to scold him, "Go away, go away, go away...! Always fooling around, never serious! It's a wonder that Xun'er still sees you as a role model!"
Chen Shiyi could only helplessly watch Ji Sanniang chuckle foolishly. In his heart, he muttered, not knowing where he lacked seriousness.
Watching Ji Sanniang about to lose her temper, the chubby man quickly nudged his mother with his elbow and whispered, "Mom...! Please don't say anything. Brother Chen didn't mean it."
The woman looked at her son, then at Chen Shiyi, and swallowed the words she was about to say.
She understood in her heart that her son didn't want her to say more about Chen Shiyi. Feeling helpless, the woman could only shake her head and say to Chen Shiyi, "Did you eat the two big buns that went missing from the house this morning? Finish eating and hurry to the altar. If you miss the soul ceremony, I'll deal with you!"
Chen Shiyi grinned and gave a look to the fat man, saying, "Alright... Auntie, just wait at home for good news. I'll go to the altar now!"
After speaking, the young man turned and ran towards the direction of the altar. The fat man, seeing Chen Shiyi run off, said goodbye to the woman and followed after him.
Running up to Chen Shiyi, Fatty first stole a glance at Chen Shiyi, then turned his head carefully and said to Chen Shiyi, "Brother Chen, don't mind it! My mother is sharp-tongued but kind-hearted...!"
Before Fatty could finish, Chen Shiyi leaned over and bumped Fatty's shoulder with his own, smiling at Fatty and said, "Don't be silly, we're brothers. How could I not know how you feel about me! How could I not know that every time you sneak... out, the buns are intentionally made extra by Auntie San! I understand Auntie San's good intentions."
In the midst of the conversation, Chen Shiyi leaned over and bumped into the fat man, looking up at the sky and shouting loudly, "Sir, let's go...! Tomorrow will be a new beginning."
Under the sky, a voice seemed to echo in the young man's heart: " Chen Shiyi, tomorrow will definitely be a new beginning...!"
