Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 192 – Heavenly eye

Chapter 192 – Heavenly eye

The old Taoist was so angry that he stuttered and trembled, saying, "My Taoyuan Gong is the authentic one..."

Idle Cloud Taoist sneered and came to Chi Xiaoyao, saying, "Don't give him expensive medicine. If it's too expensive, I can't afford it. If it can't be cured, then don't bother treating him. Save some money for me to buy a good coffin."

"I heard that!"

The old Taoist shouted, "I'm your master, and you won't treat my injuries because it's too expensive? You want to bury me?"

Idle Cloud Taoist coldly laughed and walked away.

After Chi Xiaoyao finished her work, she came to check on the old Taoist's injuries, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong. She could only prescribe some life-saving medicine to ensure that the Taoist's vitality would not be lost.

"Junior brother, take care of him."

Chi Xiaoyao asked Su Yun to take the old Taoist to a secret room and fill a tub with water. "If the medicine is cut off and the vitality is lost, then there will be no cure."

So Su Yun helped the old Taoist boil the medicine and put on his Taoist robe before soaking him in the tub. However, the old Taoist was too light to sink, so Su Yun had to hold him down with some bricks to keep him from floating.

"Aren't you curious about me?"

The old Taoist had nothing to say and said calmly, "I know Old Man Cen. You should know that I am also extraordinary."

Su Yun placed a few bricks in his arms and a couple on his head and shoulders patiently, saying, "Everyone here is extraordinary."

The old Taoist blew his beard and stared, saying, "Everyone is extraordinary? Then that means you are extraordinary too! Alright, tell me your identity and let me see how extraordinary you are!"

Su Yun thought for a moment and said, "I am the master of Tongtian Tower."

The old Taoist fell silent, and the atmosphere became awkward.

Su Yun finished brewing the medicine and turned to help Chi Xiaoyao with her work. Soon after, he returned to check the medicine and the old Taoist said, "I've been thinking for a long time and I think there's only one possibility - you're lying to me."

Su Yun took out a wooden box, and the old Taoist fell silent again. The secret room was quiet.

Late at night, Su Yun returned from outside and changed the old Taoist's medicine. He sat under the lamp and read Dong Yishi's "Jie Hui Guai Ge Wu Zhi" while Chi Xiaoyao looked at it with him. But she had been busy all day and was tired, so she fell asleep soon after.

Dong Yishi's "Jie Hui Guai Ge Wu Zhi" had many notes left behind, and the Jie Hui disease was like a plague that gradually spread among the lower class in the Shuofang region after the great calamity. Therefore, Su Yun planned to study the notes to find a solution.

The book monster Ying Ying also sat on his shoulder and read with him.

"You read so slowly like this."

The old Taoist couldn't help but say as he watched Su Yun read word by word, "People rely on their six senses to receive information, such as their eyes and ears. You only use a pair of mortal eyes to read, so of course, your speed is slow. That's why you need the Heavenly Eye, which can see faster."

Ying Ying said, "Su Shi Zi is already using the Heavenly Eye to read."Su Yun opened his palms, with an eye in each of them, and two more on his forehead.

He read two books on physics with both hands at the same time, while the two eyes on his forehead and his real eyes read separately, making his efficiency very high.

He was rich and bought many celestial eyes and Buddhist eyes from Xian Yun and Tu Ming, in order to quickly read the "Jie Hui Monster Physics".

The old Taoist smiled and said, "Real celestial eyes are not like yours. Real celestial eyes awaken the six senses in your body. After your celestial eyes are opened, you have countless visions, like having countless eyes!"

"You can see in all directions, any corner is your focal point, you can see what's in the box, what's behind the wall, and even the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys inside a human body!"

He smiled slightly and said, "You can even see through the void and see another world! Simply increasing the number of your eyes is not a celestial eye, it can only be considered a small trick."

Su Yun's heart moved slightly, turned around, and asked, "Is there really such a celestial eye?"

The old Taoist nodded.

Ying Ying couldn't help but say, "You've said so much, can you do it yourself?"

"Of course I can."

The old Taoist was proud and said, "Xian Yun's celestial eye jade leaf is actually a method of our Taoist sect, and he refined it into a spiritual weapon. But if you learn the celestial eye, it is far better than this spiritual weapon! Xue Qingfu's injuries must be serious, and Doctor Dong doesn't know when he will come back. It's better for me to teach you the Taoist celestial eye, and you can help me treat the injuries. And with the celestial eye, you can read these physics books even faster."

Su Yun hesitated for a moment and looked back at the pile of physics books.

The old Taoist smiled and said, "Sharpening the knife doesn't delay the chopping of wood. Our Taoist celestial eye is easy to cultivate. As long as you open a few holes in the sky, you can refine it. How many holes in the sky have you opened? Show me."

Su Yun admitted that he had opened seventy-three holes in the sky. They were arranged like seventy-two deep wells, along with the seventh spiritual realm, constantly drawing on the elemental energy of heaven and earth.

The secret chamber of the Apricot Forest Medicinal Herb Shop was quiet.

The old Taoist lay in the medicine tub, looking hopeless, with lifeless eyes.

Ying Ying flew over and probed under his nose, exclaiming, "Su Shi, he's gone!"

"The spiritual realm in my body is a realm of its own, creating a paradise on earth, without the need to breathe."

The old Taoist said unkindly, "It's not that he's gone! Your seventy-three holes in the sky..."

Su Yun felt a little embarrassed and said, "One of the holes in the sky was just for show. Actually, only seventy-two are useful. Master, how do you cultivate the Taoist celestial eye?"

The old Taoist was dispirited and muttered, "Seventy-two holes in the sky... the head of the Tongtian Tower... hehe, no wonder Cen Lao gave the rope to someone else. If it were me..."Su Yun asked again, and the old Taoist came back to his senses, saying, "My sect's Heavenly Eye uses rune scales to imprint on the cave sky, and then runs it to the center of the eyebrows. This way, the Heavenly Eye can be opened. There are many runes, a total of 1,024 kinds, and each rune is a kind of magical imprint..."

Su Yun was shocked and shook his head, saying, "I still won't learn it. It will take me more than ten years to learn these 1,024 magical imprints."

"You won't learn it in ten years, at least thirty years."

The old Taoist laughed and said, "So, you don't need to learn it, just imitate it. Copy the 1,024 runes step by step and imprint them on your cave sky. First refine the Heavenly Eye. As for the various mysteries of the Heavenly Eye, you will naturally understand them when you comprehend these runes thoroughly and understand their changes. I will only teach you one of its changes."

He tried to mobilize his true qi, but his injuries were too severe. Fortunately, Ying Ying, the book monster in the Tian Dao Academy's Wen Yuan Ge, could easily draw out any rune he mentioned.

The old Taoist admired her and explained the 1,024 runes, and then taught Su Yun the sequence method, saying, "After you learn it, you will probably be able to finish reading these books on the laws of nature in a short time. However, it is also difficult to visualize these runes with your qi and blood. It took me three..."

He saw that Su Yun had already begun to condense his qi and blood, visualizing one rune after another imprinted on his own cave sky, and immediately changed his words, "It took three hours to visualize them. You are very good, worthy of being the Tower Master of Tong Tian Tower. You are simple and pure, without any distractions, hmm, without any distractions."

He secretly felt ashamed.

"What the old Taoist wanted to say just now was three months, fortunately he changed his words early. But where did Old Cen find such a young man with such a pure spirit?"

Even he couldn't help but praise him. A pure spirit is the spiritual essence of transformation. A pure spirit means a pure spirit without distractions.

Only a pure spirit can reflect powerful magical powers and make them manifest faster. The speed of visualization and the ability to learn magical powers will be much faster than others.

Su Yun was able to begin to master the secrets of the Heavenly Eye in a short time, which was related to his pure spirit.

When dawn broke, Su Yun finally imprinted the 1,024 runes on one of his cave skies.

After the imprint was completed, there seemed to be a strange eye in that cave sky. Su Yun pondered for a moment and thought, "Could it be that these countless runes have caused the Heavenly Eye phenomenon in the seventh spiritual realm by mobilizing the heaven and earth's true qi? Yes, the secret of the Heavenly Eye magical power lies in imprinting it on the cave sky, which is precisely the connection to the seventh spiritual realm. In fact, this kind of Heavenly Eye magical power uses a method of utilizing the cave sky!"His eyes suddenly lit up, and his brain became active: "The Heavenly Eye is a method that uses the Dongtian. By branding these runes on the Heavenly Eye, the Heavenly Eye's effectiveness can be exerted. So, are there other branding methods that can allow the Dongtian to exert other powers or effects?"

The old Taoist reminded him when he saw him staring off into space: "You can brand 72 Dongtians. Every additional one will increase the power of the Heavenly Eye. But now, it's enough for you to quickly read the Book of Materialism. Try to activate the Dongtian and come to your own forehead."

Su Yun took out pen and paper and wrote down his thoughts so he wouldn't forget. Then, he followed the old Taoist's instructions and activated the Dongtian.

The Dongtian came to his forehead. Suddenly, Su Yun's forehead quietly cracked open, and the Heavenly Eye transformed from the Dongtian emerged, as if it had flesh and blood, and it turned around!

His spirit shook, and he suddenly felt that everything was in his sight!

He could even see the back of Ying Ying flying in front of him, and Chi Xiaoyao sleeping at her desk. He could even see Chi Xiaoyao's spiritual realm!

Su Yun was stunned. He stretched out his hands, and the skin, bones, and blood vessels of his hands ran, and he could see them clearly.

He could even "see" his own spiritual realm, see every aspect of his spiritual nature, and even see every part of his magical skill, the Great Yellow Bell, even inside the bell!

"This is too wonderful!"

He was a little dizzy, but after a while, he adapted. He waved his hand lightly, and the Book of Materialism on the desk rose up and floated in the air.

At the same time, Su Yun read the contents of hundreds of pages of the Book of Materialism, and countless words and patterns rushed into his mind, forming a vast amount of information!

Strangely, his brain processed this information incredibly quickly, constantly organizing and summarizing these words and patterns, turning them into knowledge in his mind!

Su Yun activated his True Qi, flipped through the pages, and quickly read through the Book of Materialism, which would take several months for others to finish!

Finally, Su Yun put down the last book of the Book of Materialism, closed his forehead, and suddenly felt a dizzy spell. He also felt very hungry and walked unsteadily towards a food stall.

It was already bright outside, and the street was bustling again. Su Yun came to a food stall and ate the amount of ten people before stopping. His body felt a little better, and he thought to himself, "This Heavenly Eye technique is not perfect and causes great damage to the body. But..."

He activated the Heavenly Eye again and looked at the people coming and going on the streets of the lower level of Shuofang City. His expression became solemn.

He saw the faint black gas floating in the air, and the people in the lower level of Shuofang City were unknowingly breathing in this strange black gas, causing an outbreak of the Gray Calamity."The Heavenly Eye may not be perfect, but it is indeed useful. After the chaos caused by the Disaster Dust Monster, the Disaster Dust Disease emerged. And Doctor Dong also mentioned in his study of natural philosophy that the Disaster Dust Monster may assimilate other beings. This Disaster Dust Disease originated from the disaster and is difficult to cure with medicine. Perhaps we need the human-demon Wu Tong to suppress this epidemic."

Su Yun paid for his meal and returned to the medicine shop, silently wondering, "But where is Wu Tong hiding now, after being injured and scared off by the Disaster Dust God King that night?"

He saw strands of black mist floating in the air, which Wu Tong called "disaster." Only she had the ability to absorb this disaster.
