Chapter 346: Chapter 266: Clan of Heaven’s Eye (Owed chapter, first update)_1

(The eight previous chapters are owed.)

…

Some folks hung their heads in regret. It’s rare to witness the Sky River changing course, an occurrence yet to be seen since the dawn of time. Seeing this firsthand, they concluded that this abnormality must have a cause and could potentially be an opportunity,

“Co-existing is the Immortal’s Tomb with the Sky River. Now that the river has changed course, can we not assume that the tomb has also moved? This could be a sign that the Supreme Secret Realm is about to emerge. Otherwise, this extraordinary phenomenon wouldn’t occur!!!”

Some beings speculated.

This comment seemed to be a spark falling into dry tinder. Quickly, many individuals hurried toward the Demon Lord’s Forbidden Land to see if the Immortal’s Tomb was still in its place.

“Weird, anyone else feel this curse in the Forbidden Land rapidly weakening?”

After reentering the Forbidden Land, someone immediately noticed something.

Moreover, as they delved deeper, the curse that initially shrouded this place was thinning, with only thick fog enveloping it. Compared to its previous state, it had changed significantly, with only the Mysterious Stele that could test potential remaining monolithically appreciable in the depths.

The absence of Curse Power shielding quickly enabled the beings who arrived here to reach the original location of the Immortal’s Tomb.

But at this moment, the tomb was already gone, not even a speck of dust was left.

“The Immortal’s Tomb is gone, the Immortal’s Tomb is gone…”

Someone exclaimed loudly, their eyes filled with shock and excitement.

With the missing Immortal’s Tomb, an eternal congregation was broken, and it could indeed signify the emergence of the Supreme Secret Realm from the legends. Just a hint of its aura would be enough to obliterate them all.

“Search! Find it by digging three feet below. Even though it may cost the rest of my life, I will find the location of Sky River’s course change. The Supreme Secret Realm belongs to this king!”

A being shouted, echoing across the mountains, causing herds of birds and beasts to scatter in surprise.

This was a giant Hedgehog King, the size of a small hill. Its spines looked like stacks of sharp stones, it demolished an array of mountains, plunging into madness. Some weaker beings were crushed even before reacting to its presence.

Its strength was terrifying, even in the vast annals of history. It protected a kingdom and had countless believers. Although it had lived for over 100,000 years, it was now in its twilight stage, embodying an aura of death, visibly weakening, its Divine Flame also flickering ominously as if it would extinguish at any moment.

Beings such as this, on the edge of frenzy, poured from all directions. Most of them were near the end of their lifespans, with little time left. Without a method to prolong their lives, many would not last more than a few years.

If the Supreme Secret Realm really existed, successfully entering it could change their destinies, with an extension of lifespan being a trifle.

After all, something like this had indeed happened before. There was a human who was weak from birth, just like them, reaching the end of his life.

Legend has it that this person, by a stroke of fortune, stumbled into the Supreme Secret Realm and obtained unimaginable chances. From being an ordinary person, he climbed step by step to the position of Sect Hierarch, and still survived to this day, creating fear and respect. He established his own Taoist Orthodoxy, ruled numerous territories, and created countless legends, being regarded in the same light as beings that existed since the beginning of the world.

…

In one direction.

A group of beings dressed in dark blue outfits stood.

They stood like humans but weren’t actual humans. There was a third eye in the middle of their foreheads. Apart from this, they resembled humans. The males were handsome and the females were charming.

A glance from far away was enough to perceive a formidable aura surrounding each person, which was both exaggerated and powerful, deterring other creatures from approaching. Even the frenzied Hedgehog King hesitated and stopped a few miles away from these three-eyed beings.

Unlike the beings plunged into madness, these three-eyed beings stood tall as if they were green pines, showing no signs of aging.

In addition, they were all in their prime, some even youngsters. They had lots of time before the twilight of their lives.

“This is the Clan of Heaven’s Eye, a branch of the Celestials. Every individual stands equal to a Heavenly Beast. Once completely mature, they are terrifyingly strong, and have an extremely long lifespan. They can easily live for 10,000 years. There are Sect Leader level individuals amongst their ranks who still exist in this world—I hadn’t expected them to be alerted and make the journey here.”

Someone whispered, side-eyeing these three-eyed beings carefully, as if worried they would overhear.

The Clan of Heaven’s Eye, as the name suggests, has a terrifying ability to sense, especially the Heavenly Eye embedded in their foreheads, which can see through deception.

However, this person’s worries were clearly superfluous. At this moment, these members of the Clan of Heaven’s Eye had their attention drawn to something else and took no notice.

Every member of the Clan of Heaven’s Eye appeared solemn; their vertical eyes in the middle of their brows were continually flashing dazzling light towards the sky.

Especially notable was the leading individual of the Clan of Heaven’s Eye. His gaze was incredibly profound, much more than the others. It demonstrated an inexplicable rhythm that mirrored an enormous Holy Eye in the heavens, seemingly omnipotent and capable of penetrating any secrecy.

In the surroundings, almost all the beings watched the members of the Clan of Heaven’s Eye in the field. The entire area fell quiet; not a word was whispered as they watched those forms nervously.

The Clan of Heaven’s Eye was most reliant on its vertical eye, which could see through everything. They should be able to discern the whereabouts of Sky River’s course change.

“The Heavenly Eye can still sense Sky River’s aura, but its location seems chaotic, like it’s trapped somewhere terrifying…”

A member of the Clan of Heaven’s Eye spoke, bringing crucial information.

“Trapped?” Some beings in the surroundings gasped, breathing heavily. They felt even more convinced now that the Supreme Secret Realm was about to emerge. Sky River must have been trapped inside that place. Otherwise, why would it not be able to extricate itself?

This wasn’t just any river. Many Heavenly-level beings were buried within it. Even Sect Hierarch-level people wouldn’t dare dictate Sky River’s flow.

“Sky River still exists, only its path is cloaked by a layer of illusion that we can’t see clearly. We have all been shielded by the illusion, blinding our senses, so we can’t perceive it!”

Then the most powerful member of the Clan of Heaven’s Eye unexpectedly spoke. As he did, the vertical eye in the heaven above them became more prominent. It seemed as though at any moment, it would manifest into a physical form.

“Interesting! This Heavenly Eye can actually perceive the illusions I’ve laid down!”

Behind Liu Village, surprise appeared on Jiang Hui’s face.
