22 The First Encounter. (1/2)

Somewhere within the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

Night falls.

The blue moon hung high above the sky and the moonlight was like a diffuse ocean above, lessening the inky blackness of the night. It was accompanied by numerous stars which also hung above as if strung in the air by some invisible strings, lighting the whole forest from its tenebrous.

At this moment, deep within the demon beast mountain range, Ling Chen and Devil Fang sat in front of a campfire while drinking wine.

The fire crackled while projecting long shadows on the surrounding. Furthermore, the lights cast by the flames danced across the dark trunks of the trees, twisting and curling in obscure shapes while providing a small radius of light.

The heat from the campfire seemed to be sucked into the frigid air before ever reaching their cold hands. Luckily they were both immune to this little cold due to their strong cultivation base.

” Young master, I finally able to skillfully control the amplify sight of my third eye.” Fang Lan said after taking a sip of wine with a pleased expression on his face.

Over the past two days, he discovered that he was able to amplify the sight of his third eye which was an amazing skill.

With the amplified sight, he was able to see any object from afar as though they were up close. Like a microscope, he was also capable of viewing a very small object or animal such as an ant like any regular size object or animal by magnifying them.

Although this was an amazing skill to have, he was having a hard time differentiating when the object was close or afar.

Furthermore, whenever he amplified the vision of his third eye, he completely lost sight from his two regular eyes. They shut down whenever he used that skill. However, after a day or two of training, he was able to skillfully used his amplified third eye while still keeping the vision of his two regular eyes.

” That's very good.” Answered Ling Chen nonchalantly while continued to sip his wine.

One might be wondering why a ten years old boy who hasn't even grown any pubic hair was drinking a grown man drink. Well, it's all traced back to his weird body.

While consuming a lethal poison might prove fatal or even kill someone, it only served as a nutrient for his body. Any negative substances that might prove dangerous and fatal for the human body only served as nutrients for his.

As such, a wine which was such a fine delicacy that most people use to celebrate an event or to have a good time was nothing more than tasty water in his mouth. Though he couldn't get drunk by drinking it, it somehow stimulated his body a little. And now, he became somehow addicted to it and used it as tasty water.

” Aside from amplifying your sight, what else your third eye is able to do?” Asked Ling Chen indifferently.

If his third eye only allowed him to amplify his sight, it would have been a waste. There's a handful of Battle Techniques which allowed the user to amplify his sight. Though it might not be to the same degree as Fang Lan, they still existed and there's also a handful of people that practiced them. Fang Lan's third eye should be more powerful than that.

Take his eyes for example, even though he hasn't fully unearthed all of his abilities, he'd already discovered a handful of them which are very useful.

His left eye which had the blue magic rune or circle mostly granted him some passive skills. With his left eye ability, he was able to see through concrete like an x-ray vision. Aside from that, he had the ability to copy and analyze any battle techniques just by seeing it in a book or from an opponent during a fight, except for bodybuilding battle techniques. He was capable of seeing the weakness of any battle technique as well.

With his left eye, he was able to see through illusion and cast illusion as well. His left eye granted him a strong perceptive ability such as motion prediction, wind direction, and human movements. Not to mention amplify his sight just like Fang Lan.

As for his right eye or demonic eye like he called it, he could paralyze a weaker opponent with a single gaze. It also gave him an ability known as the Death Curse where he could drain an opponent's life-force until he died without ever touching that person. Aside from that, Ling Chen didn't know much about his right eye as he refrained from digging deeper after that event six years ago where he accidentally killed all of his twenty-five maids and servants with the Death Curse.

”For now that's all, but I have feeling that this ability is only the beginning. Once I open my upper-dantian and break through the Martial Sovereign, that's when I'll truly awaken the true ability of the third eye.” Answered Fang Lan with a look of confidence on his face.

”You may be right, however, you are still far away from breaking through the Martial Sovereign realm.” Ling Chen said.

Although Fang Lan's body was transformed by the black fruit of creation, he wasn't like him who didn't have any bottlenecks and could absorb people's energy or life force in order to get stronger. It did boost his potential and talent though. Right now, Fang Lan's speed of absorbing True Qi and comprehend Battle techniques was many time faster than any super-genius of the Heaven Desolate Region.

”Two to three years isn't that far. I can wait.” Fang Lan said with a smile.

Recalling how he almost became a cripple and almost been killed by Lin Mu during the Inner Sect Battle Ascension, He couldn't help but feel a chill ran down his spine.

If it was not for Ling Chen, now he would have long been dead. One could say that he became wiser and open-minded after that event. At the same time, he became more thirsty for power and more brutal to his enemies.

” I see.”

” How far are we from the Sky Lion Kingdom?”

After listening how fun and interesting the Mortal World was earlier from Fang Lan, Ling Chen was very eager to get there.

Ever since he was born, he has never left the Heavenly Demon Sect. He didn't know how it felt like to be among a group of people that didn't feel fear towards him or did everything to please him because of his status.

It was the first time he was going to a place where nobody knew of his identity or his power. A place where he would be treated like any other human being or a little child. A place where people might even look down upon him because he looked poor or weak.
