Chapter 350: The Same Eyes (2/2)

“Here we are!” Qing Han stopped after some time.

In the eyes of the others, there was nothing different about the shimmering world around them. However, the disguised girl had refined the Cosmic Skycarver with Treasure Refining Talismans while Situ Zong was refining the Pelagic Org. He could easily sense the Cosmic Sea by activating the blade with his starstones.

“Careful! We’re in the skydragon tomb!” Lu Yun suddenly yanked Qing Han back, shielding his friend with his own body. His eyes turned pure black as he activated the Spectral Eye.

“What… what’s wrong? What do you see?” The question tumbled from Qing Han’s lips when he noticed Lu Yun’s suddenly veiny hands and tense muscles.

“Who are you?” Lu Yun asked instead of responding to Qing Han, looking into the unexplored space ahead of him. There was a pair of white eyes hovering there that looked human, but were completely devoid of emotion. Moreover, they stared back at Lu Yun like he was already dead.

“Not gonna talk?” He narrowed his eyes. “Aim the cannon at your eleven o’clock, Situ Zong!”

The pair of eyes gave Lu Yun so much pressure that he accidentally blurted out an expression used only on Earth.

Situ Zong paused. “My… my eleven o...?”

“That way.” Lu Yun pointed with his right hand.

“Understood!” Situ Zong turned and pointed the cannon at his eleven.

Mockery flashed through the eyes before they closed and disappeared; the haze of silver mist seemed to be their eyelids.

Those looked just like the ones in the depths of hell. They aren’t the same pair of eyes, but they belong to the same kind of people.

Nothing in hell could forever elude its overlord’s senses, and he’d learned of the pair of eyes that’d emerged when he was finished studying the talisman formations.

“Alright, we’re safe now.” Lu Yun waved a hand and secretly sighed in relief, sweat having drenched his clothes.

Situ Zong cast a surprised look at Lu Yun, the Black Emperor hefted by one hand and Situ Yun in the other. He was still wrapping his head around what had happened.

”To seek a dragon of mountains coiled,

Those deathly cliffs with mysteries roiled.

If danger lurks behind the doors closed,

Yin and yang a road to heaven rose.”

Luopan manifesting in hand to spill forth a vibrant golden light, the radiance formed a beam of light that split apart the silver veil and forged a path of intertwining gold and silver fifty-four meters wide. It led to the half open room at the heart of the tomb.

There were many immortals along the path who were gradually finding their way toward the chamber.

“It’s Lu Yun! What’s that in his hand? It split the silver starlight here!” The immortals looked upon Lu Yun with greed when they saw him and the compass in his hand.

“Situ Zong, aim forward and blast anyone who dares make a move!” Lu Yun said impassively. “I’ve killed two of Beigong Xuan’s replicas already. This scum is nothing.”

“...understood!” Jaw tightened, Situ Zong hoisted the cannon ahead and growled, “If you don’t want to die, scram!”
