75Chapter 75 The Shura Eyes Left Behind by Huo Yuhao
After walking through a long mural corridor that seemed like a journey through history ten thousand years ago, Leng Yaozhu and Lu Jun stopped in front of a plain bronze door.
The door slid open silently.
Behind the door is a not very big circular stone chamber.
There was no unnecessary decoration in the center of the stone chamber, only a pedestal emitting a soft silver light.
Floating above the pedestal was an...eye.
A huge eye formed by pure mental power!
It was a deep golden color, with closed pupils and long eyelashes that looked like substance.
Just by floating there quietly, it exudes a vast spiritual pressure that is as real as a substance.
The space of the entire stone chamber seemed to be slightly distorted by this mental power.
As soon as Lu Jun's eyes met this eye, he felt an indescribable mental pressure coming upon him, as if his entire soul was about to be seen through and frozen.
The soul power in his body instantly started to operate on its own, and the Bingyuan Sword Soul emitted a vigilant hum in the sea of spiritual sea, barely resisting this pressure.
"This is..."
There was a barely perceptible dryness in Lu Jun's voice.
"Indeed, this is one of the most precious treasures left to us by our ancestor Huo Yuhao." Leng Yaozhu's voice was filled with awe as she pointed at the giant golden eye. "It's called the 'Eye of Shura'."
Lu Jun's heart was shocked.
Isn't this the Shura Eye that evolved from Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eye Martial Soul?
You actually stayed here?
Then isn't he...
Leng Yaozhu said:
"Legend has it that this is the third eye that Huo Yuhao's ancestor created through long training and battles, combining his own spiritual power with some kind of divine power. This was ultimately refined and refined to the level of a divine artifact."
"Before our ancestor disappeared, he stripped out this eye, which contained the essence of his lifelong spiritual power and a portion of his divine origin, and left it here. It has become a true divine artifact."
Her tone was filled with immense pride and gratitude:
"It is one of the best gifts our ancestors left for us, the descendants of the Spirit Pagoda."
"Its purpose is only one, to bless and enlighten."
"Only core members with exceptional talents and significant contributions to the Spirit Pagoda are qualified to come here and receive its baptism."
"When it opens its eyes and looks at you..." Leng Yaozhu looked at Lu Jun with anticipation in her eyes, "It will release corresponding mental pressure and spiritual essence baptism based on the strength, potential, and mental strength of the person being looked at."
"Bearing this pressure will allow you to gain immense spiritual strength and a dramatic improvement. This is a shortcut that no other cultivation method can match!"
"So, this is the result of many days of discussion between the Tower Master, the many branch Tower Masters, and the Deputy Tower Masters."
"Everyone agrees that you can be baptized."
Leng Yaozhu looked at the somewhat dazed Lu Jun and asked softly:
"Are you ready?"
Lu Jun took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and nodded vigorously:
"I'm ready."
At Leng Yaozhu's signal, Lu Jun walked to the center of the stone chamber and stood directly below the floating Shura's Eye.
The moment he stood still, something strange happened.
An unprecedented strong throbbing erupted from the depths of his spiritual sea, and the silent Ice Abyss Sword, as if it had smelled a unique delicacy, began to vibrate violently and uncontrollably.
An extremely eager and greedy thought was transmitted along Lu Jun's mental power, targeting the Shura Eye above that was emitting vast spiritual energy.
"Are you crazy? You dare to inhale this? I can't afford the consequences!"
Lu Jun was shocked and wanted to suppress the movement of the Bingyuan Sword, but found that it was of no use.
The Bingyuan Sword was like an ancient ferocious beast that had been awakened, and it was filled with an instinctive desire to devour those golden eyes.
At the same time, Leng Yaozhu stood at the edge of the stone chamber, forming an ancient and mysterious seal with his hands and chanting obscure syllables.
Her mental power was like a fuse, gently touching the floating Shura's Eye.
The entire space of the stone chamber seemed to shake slightly.
Under Leng Yaozhu's guidance, the huge, tightly closed golden eye slowly... opened.
The indescribable terrifying mental pressure was like a physical tsunami, instantly filling the entire stone chamber. The golden pupils were as deep as a black hole in the universe, and with the cold will that could penetrate the soul and judge everything, they instantly locked onto Lu Jun below.
Lu Jun felt as if an invisible spiritual mountain had crashed down, and his soul seemed to be thrown into a meat grinder. The intense stinging sensation and irresistible pressure made him groan in an instant, and his body bent slightly uncontrollably.
The sea of consciousness was churning and about to burst.
And at the moment when this terrifying pressure came.
A clear and passionate sword sound, as if it could freeze the soul, suddenly erupted from Lu Jun's body.
The Ice Abyss Sword, which was restless in the sea of spirituality, could no longer be restrained.
It turned into a faint blue stream of light, instantly breaking through Lu Jun's mental barriers and appearing in front of him.
The ancient sword body vibrated violently, emitting an equally ancient, equally domineering, and even a hint of extremely cold sword intent that could rival the Shura's Eye.
It is not attacking, but... absorbing madly.
Lu Jun was horrified to find that the tip of the Bingyuan Sword seemed to have formed an invisible vortex.
The vast and pure spiritual power of the Shura's Eye was fatally attracted and was turning into wisps of golden light visible to the naked eye, which was forcibly torn, swallowed, and absorbed by the Bingyuan Sword.
The Bingyuan Sword was like a bottomless pit, greedily absorbing the spiritual essence of this artifact level.
Lu Jun himself was bearing the double impact of the Bingyuan Sword's counter-pressure and crazy devouring.
On the one hand, the sword intent of the Bingyuan Sword helped him share most of the direct mental pressure of the Shura Eye.
On the other hand, the Bingyuan Sword's domineering devouring behavior also caused the pure spiritual power filtered or overflowed by it to wash and nourish Lu Jun's soul and spiritual sea like a sweet rain.
It was an extremely contradictory feeling, with pain and comfort coexisting, and destruction and rebirth intertwined.
In this strange gap, Lu Jun's mental power is expanding, condensing, and sublimating at an unprecedented speed.
At the edge of the stone chamber, Leng Yaozhu looked at the completely unexpected scene in front of her, and for the first time, her beautiful face revealed an unconcealable shock and confusion.
This... this is completely different from the process of these senior leaders receiving blessings!
Even Leng Yaozhu was seeing this situation for the first time.
The Bingyuan Sword greedily devoured the energy, like a glutton facing a rare delicacy, without any scruples.
Surprisingly, the Shura Eyes, which symbolized Huo Yuhao's ancestor's supreme spiritual power, did not show any resistance or anger in the face of this almost predatory behavior.
It was still floating calmly, and the Shura's Eye was just silently watching everything happening below, like a tolerant elder, allowing the younger generation to use the power he left behind.
However, with the rapid loss of energy, the Shura's Eye, which originally emitted a dazzling golden light, quickly dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming like a dusty gem.
The humming sound of the Bingyuan Sword became louder and clearer, as if carrying immense joy and satisfaction.
The ancient patterns on the sword seemed to come alive, flowing with a faint blue halo, and an older, deeper, and more domineering chill emanated from the depths of the sword.
The edge of the sword seemed to become sharper.
The Bingyuan Sword was undergoing a transformation. After gaining energy, it seemed to have finally taken on the appearance of a divine weapon.
