745 The Divine Eye! The Demonic Eye! (2/2)
Nothing in this world can stop me from becoming the Federation President! Wang Baole thought excitedly before something caught his attention. There was something wrong with the course the battleship was taking. The position of the stars was different from what he remembered from the star maps.
The battleship didn't seem to be headed for space beyond the Divine Eye Star System. It appeared to be flying towards… the star at the center of the star system!
The discovery stunned Wang Baole, and he wasn't the only one affected. Shock appeared on the faces of the other elders and a portion of the remaining cultivators. They all turned towards the Grand Supreme Elder, who was steering the battleship.
One elder was about to raise a question when the Grand Supreme Elder suddenly pressed his fingers together in a hand seal and slammed both palms onto the console. His cultivation erupted from his body and sent the battleship flying at full speed. A thunderous rumble resonated in space as the battleship raced towards the Eternal Star at a startling speed!
It approached the Eternal Star rapidly!
The battleship looked as if it were traveling at light speed, distorting and bending light itself as it tore through space!
Alarm flashed across Wang Baole's face, and a dark look flickered in his eyes. He had no idea what was going on, but it was clearly something bad. He narrowed his eyes, prepared to force his way out of the battleship as it drew nearer to the Eternal Star at an intense speed. It was then that… his eyes suddenly widened.
The Demonic Eye Art nestled inside his body… had chosen this moment to activate itself. It churned fiercely and wildly, with the violence of a feral beast, exuding an indescribable madness and… hunger!
The air behind Wang Baole began to warp, his demonic eye on the verge of materializing. Wang Baole was taken completely by surprise. He immediately suppressed the demonic eye and stopped it from materializing. However, the Demonic Eye Art continued to churn inside his body.
What's going on? Have I been discovered? Wang Baole's breathing hitched as shock and alarm rose inside him.
He could sense the Demonic Eye Art's hunger, which intensified as the battleship approached the Eternal Star. The hunger began to affect Wang Baole. He could sense something… calling out to him from inside the Eternal Star.
It was like a mother's call for her child. Every wandering child was irresistibly compelled to obey it and return to their mother's embrace!
I haven't been discovered. This is something else… Wang Baole thought, shaken. An incredulous thought appeared in his mind. At that exact moment… the indescribably gigantic Eternal Star that had appeared before the approaching battleship suddenly let loose a surge of flames and energy waves!
A sliver of a crack appeared on the Eternal Star, and it grew increasingly wider and longer. It took only a few seconds before the crack touched both ends of the Eternal Star. Then… like the lid covering an eye, it snapped open!
Space itself thundered and quaked, and every cultivator on board the battleship could hear a loud buzzing in their head. Stunned, they stared ahead… at the gigantic eye the size of an Eternal Star!
The eye's pupil was gray and devoid of emotion, appearing cold and without feeling while exuding a powerful aura. It was like a god gazing down upon its creations. It was gazing down at the steadily approaching battleship, which was like an ant when compared to the eye.
Everyone in the battleship was blown away by the sight. No one noticed Wang Baole's trembling body or the Demonic Eye Art nestled inside him. The Demonic Eye Art was now fully activated and churning furiously. Even this couldn't compare to the shock he was experiencing at this moment!
There was no way he could remain calm. The eye that the Eternal Star had transformed into… was almost exactly the same as… the demonic eye that always materialized when he used the Demonic Eye Art!
The Divine Eye civilization… and the Demonic Eye Art… Wang Baole's heart was racing. In the next moment, the battleship was caught by the Eternal Star's gravity and yanked roughly towards it. The battleship began racing speedily towards the Eternal Star!
