Time slowly trickled by, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

During these three days, the aura emanating from the depths of Misty Mountains became increasingly weird, even unpredictable.

It gave an inexplicable feeling, as if a new life were gestating, or as if some strange entity was attempting to break free from its shackles.

Suppressed roars reverberated through the sky as the strange Tree in the distance, towering at a height of 100 meters with no branches or leaves, seemed to be evolving into a monstrous creature.

Its bark had a granite like texture, and kept bulging every now and then, like muscles.

At this point, fearsome gales began to blow, and endless dark and dense clouds rolled in within just a few breaths. Within these dark, dense clouds, bolts of lightning as thick as water buckets streaked across the night sky one after another.

“What’s going on!?”

“How terrifying!?”

…

Amidst exclaimed cries, Mutant Beasts like Bull Demon and White Tiger emerged from their dens, gazing up at the sky.

An indescribable oppressive aura swept across the world, giving everyone the impression as if a life that should not exist in the world had manifested.

Because just at this moment, every Mutant Beasts could sense a sense of rejection emanating from the endless dark clouds in the sky.

Actually, the more accurate word should be expulsion.

“What’s Master actually doing?” Narrowing her yes, Nine Tails cast a long, deep gaze towards the enormous figure not far away, which looked like a monster.

It was a highly unusual Life Form, never seen before. It was grotesque and terrifying, and seemed to have ten tails. More importantly, it had a slit on its brow.

“Open!” Suddenly, a thunderous shout, akin to a clap of thunder, shook the world.

Visible to the naked eyes, the rolling sound waves transformed into a fearsome shockwave, surging straight towards the dark clouds in the sky. With a deafening boom, the endless dark clouds were shaken away, to the extent that they looked as if they would dissipate at any moment.

However, just a moment later…

Deafening claps of thunder reverberated across the sky as silver bolts of lightning streaked across the clouds.

The next moment, they transformed into Silver Flood Dragons before descending straight down on Yu Zi Yu in succession, illuminating the entire night sky with a brilliant white light. 

Yet despite such terrifying momentum, the grotesque monster remained as calm as ever.

At this moment, if one were to look closely, they would notice that the slit at the centre of the monster’s brow seemed to be on the verge of opening, with a trickle of blood slowly oozing out from the corners.

“What’s that?” Golden Monkey, who was observing from a distance, couldn’t help but subconsciously exclaim at the sight of this, a perplexed look on his face.

At this point, he finally realised that it was an eye, and not just any eye, but a blood-coloured eye.

“Master is opening his Heavenly Eye!?” Golden Monkey’s voice trembled slightly in disbelief.

The Heavenly Eye was a window to Heaven’s Soul.

Though it was the symbol of the Three-Eyes Clan, many existences outside the Clan had also opened their Heavenly Eye, and without exception, all of these individuals happened to be unparalleled geniuses, who were not only invincible amongst their peers, but even dominated their eras.

After all, to a certain extent, the Heavenly Eye was a formidable Grand Divine Ability, and such a power, nurtured by oneself was extremely profound and unfathomable.

*Haaaa…* Suppressing the nervousness in his heart, Golden Monkey’s expression became grave for the first time.

[Now, Master will have to undergo Tribulation, even Master will have a tough time facing it. Although the Heavenly Eye allows one to see all things, opening the Heavenly Eyes is an act that goes against Heaven. To a certain extent, it could be said that the Heavenly Eye itself is an eye sealed by Heaven. Since it was sealed by them, how could they allow it to be easily opened?]

Just as Golden Monkey was reeling from the astonishment, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes narrowed.

He was not that concerned about the Lightning Tribulation. Compared to the Lightning Tribulation, he was more concerned with opening the Heavenly Eye.

At this moment, a profound and mysterious power circulated in his mind.

In the depths of Yu Zi Yu’s Soul, within his hazy grey consciousness, a grotesque Tree without any leaves and branches had manifested at some point, with only a blood-red flower blooming on its canopy.

It was the Divine Tree that had opened the Heavenly Eye.

Now, with the help of Evolution Points and some vague memories, Yu Zi Yu had thoroughly deduced it. Not only was its form 99% similar, he had even managed to deduce 30-40% of its power.

And this, 30-40% of power was already enough.

After all, what Yu Zi Yu was seeking was the essence of this Divine Tree’s power.

To put it more accurately, Yu Zi Yu only wanted its abilities.

“If I visualise it a few more times, the Heavenly Eye will surely open.” Excited, a grin appeared on Yu Zi Yu’s lips.

His consciousness sank again, focusing all his attention once more on the Divine Tree deep within his Soul.

Visualisation was a very mystical method of cultivation.

And now, with the mysteriousness of Evolution Points and some of Yu Zi Yu’s insights, he stumbled upon it inadvertently.

[Indeed, it’s as Golden Monkey said, the Visualization Method is very mystical. No wonder, the Visualization Method behind each inheritance is kept a deeply guarded secret in the previous era.]

Just like now, Yu Zi Yu, by visualising this Divine Tree has found the opportunity to open the Heavenly Eye.

*Boom, boom, boom…* Amidst deafening claps of thunder, the dense, dark clouds seemed as if they would crush this entire world.

At the sight of this, the Mutant Beasts in the heart of Misty Mountains began to grow restless, wailing and growling.

Yet, before they could grow any more agitated, a loud and thunderous Tiger Roar reverberated through the forest.

From a distance, a White Tiger with wings and golden divine eyes at the centre of its forehead could be seen roaring towards the sky.

“Silence!” With a roar, White Tiger immediately subdued the restless beasts.

He wasn’t bothered by the restlessness, rather he was worried that they might disturb his Master, which was not only unacceptable to White Tiger but even the usually calm and collected Bull Demon cast a cold glance at the numerous Mutant Beasts, wearing a dark expression on his face.

Shortly afterward, another deafening roar shook the sky as the monstrous creature slowly rose  its body. At the same time, a majestic voice echoed through the sky once again, “Open!”

With this roar, the bloody slit at the centre of the creature’s forehead opened again.

However, before the numerous Mutant Beasts could react, a cracking sound, akin to something shattering echoed, before blood-red light suddenly erupted from the centre of the creature’s forehead with a thunderous boom, dyeing everything red.

Immediately after, the blood-red eye, now emitting a blood-red light, erupted with a terrifying suction, devouring the entire thunderclouds in the sky, leaving the Mutant Beasts dumbfounded.

More importantly, all of this happened within just a breath, leaving many Mutant Beasts unable to even react.
