Chapter 1044: The Power of the Exterminating Eye

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The dark vertical eye between Mu Chen’s brows opened, and dark light shot out. The light looked destructive, and as it flickered, it seemed to pierce through the space.

Nine Nether and the rest were shocked when they saw the vertical eye. Since Mu Chen had obtained this treasure, he had only been using it to help them check on the paths ahead. However, they knew that the abilities to pierce through the space and check on the surroundings were only some of the attributes of the Exterminating Eye.

As Nine Nether and Mu Chen were close, Mu Chen had told her before that the Ancient Treasure Beast had refined its eye into the Exterminating Eye. It had the potential to turn into a sacred object, and it was worth more than all the Quasi-Divine Artifacts that they had obtained. However, there was a large gap between a Quasi-Divine Artifact and a sacred object.

The death-gas in the Grade Eight beast spirit surged violently when the Exterminating Eye appeared between Mu Chen’s brows. It became wary and stopped itself abruptly from dashing forward. It was apparent that it sensed danger from the Exterminating Eye.

The beast was no longer at its top form, as it had been seriously injured by the spiritual arrays, and it was no longer well protected by the death-gas. It would definitely die if it were hit by the Exterminating Eye. Although there was no life in it, its instinct had allowed it to continue living. Death-gas surged in its eyes, and it began to retreat.

However, Mu Chen would not allow it to run away. He nodded at Nine Nether and the rest, and they immediately knew what he meant. Mu Chen activated the Quasi-Divine Artifact and blocked off the Grade Eight beast spirit’s escape path at the back.

As Nine Nether and the rest formed an interception, Mu Chen suddenly flicked his fingers, and an alabaster jar appeared. It exploded in the air and created a current. The current was like a river as it meandered in the sky. The spiritual energy in the area suddenly became powerful as the current exuded Spiritual Energy Fog.

Nine Nether saw that the current had been formed by about 1,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.

“Must Mu Chen use so much Sovereign Spiritual Liquid to activate the Exterminating Eye?” Nine Nether was shocked. All of them had used their own spiritual energy to activate their Quasi-Divine Artifacts, but Mu Chen had to use external help to activate the Exterminating Eye.

Mu Chen sighed helplessly as he watched the spiritual energy current around him. He noticed that Nine Nether and the rest were shocked, but he had no choice. The Exterminating Eye was a bottomless pit. Mu Chen had to use 1,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid every time he needed to activate it. He could only activate the Exterminating Eye four to five times given the amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid that he currently had. He had to activate the Exterminating Eye now to kill the Grade Eight beast spirit to avoid further trouble.

Mu Chen immediately changed his seal and gathered the dark light between his brows. The dark light burst out and absorbed the Sovereign Spiritual Liquid like a long whale taking in water.

As the Exterminating Eye took in large amounts of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, the vertical eye became more intense. It looked like a black hole from afar, and if one looked long enough, even the spiritual energy in his body would dissipate.

Mu Chen turned grave as he felt the power that had gathered in the Exterminating Eye. His head might even explode once the power burst out. He took a deep breath and immediately changed his seal. Black haloes gathered in the Exterminating Eye, and the area around the eye started to collapse.

Death-gas surged around the Grade Eight beast spirit, and it moved back quickly. It dared not stay put, as it had sensed great danger.

Buzz! Buzz!

Mu Chen ignored its movements and continued to gather the black light. After more than ten breaths, the black haloes in the vertical eye burst out.

Exterminating Eye, Exterminating Divine Light! Mu Chen shouted in his heart and formed a seal with his hands.

Swoosh!

The black vertical eye turned to fix its gaze on the Grade Eight beast spirit. Light flashed across the vertical eye and shot out. The black light seemed sticky, and it slowed everything down. Wherever the black light passed, it destroyed every living thing, including the spiritual energy in the area. Even Nine Nether and the rest felt the danger, even though they were far away.

The Grade Eight beast spirit roared when it sensed the danger. Death-gas burst out and formed a death-shield behind it as it ran away.

Bang!

The Exterminating Black Light shot out, hit the death-shield, and dissipated the death-gas in it. The death-shield was not able to stop the Black Light.

Swoosh!

The Black Light pierced through the death-shield and cut across the horizon. It caught up with the Grade Eight beast spirit and struck its head. Although the Grade Eight beast spirit activated its death-gas to form a defense, when the Black Light whizzed past it, its head and neck simply disappeared into thin air.

The Grade Eight beast spirit’s body maintained its running posture. After a while, it swayed and fell down from the sky, breaking a huge tree. The powerful death-gas in its body had completely dissipated, leaving behind a shriveled body.

Nine Nether and the rest were shocked when they saw the helpless Grade Eight beast spirit that had been killed. They gasped after they had collected themselves. It was apparent that they were shocked by Mu Chen’s power.

“This is indeed a treasure with great potential to become a sacred object,” Nine Nether muttered. Although the Grade Eight beast spirit had depleted much energy, the Exterminating Eye was powerful. Its power was many times greater than any of the Quasi-Divine Artifacts that they had. It was apparent that there were different grades in the Quasi-Divine Artifacts.

Mu Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the Grade Eight beast spirit had been killed. The Exterminating Eye between his brows then gradually closed up. Mu Chen appeared beside the Grade Eight beast spirit and waved his sleeve. The shriveled body turned into ashes and dissipated, leaving behind a black heart. It then rose up slowly.

The black heart contained horrifying death-gas. It was apparent that it had been invaded by a large amount of death-gas over the millennium. The heart of the beast spirit was the key for Mu Chen and his companions to enter into the inner region of the Divine Cemetery. Mu Chen waved his hand and stowed the heart. He then started to relax. He had finally killed the Grade Eight beast spirit after much preparation. The best part of it was that none of his companions had been injured, and probably only the supreme groups would be able to achieve that.

“The Exterminating Eye is so powerful…” Han Shan said and fixed his gaze between Mu Chen’s brows.

“Well, I have paid a high price for it.” Mu Chen smiled helplessly and said, “Every time I activate it, I will need to use 1,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. If I activate it a few more times, I will be left with nothing for my cultivation.”

His companions laughed when they heard it. They knew that Mu Chen was just joking. After all, this was a powerful means, and it could help save one’s life. Life was more important than any amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.

“Since we have the heart of the beast, let’s go to the inner region,” Mu Chen said as he looked at the mess around him. He could not wait to get into the inner region to verify if the Primordial Undying Bird was truly there.

When his companions heard it, they nodded in agreement. Mu Chen immediately waved his sleeve. He turned into a colorful light and shot out with Nine Nether and the rest following closely behind.

Mu Chen and his companions flew for a few minutes without obstruction. As they flew across the forest, they noticed a strange piece of land.

“What is that?” Nine Nether pointed at the land below. The ground had been destroyed in the forest, and deep cracks were formed. It was apparent that a fierce battle had taken place.

The gouges stretched out to the other side of the forest, and the direction led to the place where Mu Chen had killed the Grade Eight beast spirit. Mu Chen pondered for a while and said, “This must be the place where the Grade Eight beast spirit had been injured previously.”

“From the look of it, it did not fight with the other groups. The death-gas is too thick here. It should be a struggle between the beast spirits,” Ink Blade said, after checking it out.

“Do the beast spirits fight among themselves?” Ink Ring asked, looking shocked.

Mu Chen answered, “They will kill each other for the things they are attracted to.”

Mu Chen looked along the traces on the ground, and suddenly, he dashed up to a mountain. He was shocked as he looked out.

“That is…?”
