Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 403 - 393: The Golden Pupil Shows Its Power

Chapter 403: Chapter 393: The Golden Pupil Shows Its Power

Under He Luo’s attack, Chu Chitian was already drenched in blood, completely at a disadvantage.

It wasn’t just a slight inferiority in skill, but a total inability to match the opponent. It was as if one was the War King, and the other the War Venerate, with a fundamental gap in strength between them.

How could this be? Aren’t both of these two War Venerates? And isn’t Chu Chitian supposed to be slightly better in terms of realm? Why then is he being dominated by his opponent?

Whoosh! The sound of the violent wind picked up as Chu Hao’s attack closed in.

Chu Baishan hurriedly blocked, but with one punch, he let out a scream and was sent flying, his bones almost shattered under the Shocking Force, his entire body feeling numb, making it difficult even to stand.

"Elder Tian! Elder Tian!" Chu Baishan shouted loudly, well aware that Chu Chitian was unable to save himself, but at this moment, he could only call out to Chu Chitian for help.

"He Luo, are you trying to force me into a desperate fight?" Chu Chitian’s eyes split with rage. He had not at all anticipated that he would be so powerless before his adversary, but Chu Chitian was the genius of his Single-Meridian. He bears great hopes and absolutely cannot die before him.

A storm raged in He Luo’s heart. He never imagined that a mere beast’s eye could give him the upper hand over Chu Chitian. After all, he was below the opponent by a small realm; at best, his combat power was on par with the other’s.

But with the aid of the golden pupil eye, he saw through Chu Chitian thoroughly, every move clear as day, making the battle utterly one-sided.

What kind of treasure is this? It’s simply miraculous!

He couldn’t help but glance at Chu Hao. This young master always managed to shock people. Who knew what other jaw-dropping feats he could accomplish?

"You think you can fight to the death?" He Luo said indifferently. He was completely suppressing Chu Chitian, not giving him any chance to fight back with his full strength.

"Damn it!" Chu Chitian’s eyes were bloodshot. He was about to unveil a self-harming secret technique to boost his combat power. He had to rescue Chu Baishan and then call on the Chu Family’s experts. They couldn’t give up on this ancient ruin.

He Luo let out a long howl, his hands pointing rapidly, with the light flickering erratically, Chu Chitian’s secret technique was abruptly halted.

— With the help of the golden pupil eye, it was as if he knew everything; there was nothing difficult for him.

Meanwhile, Chu Baishan was also fighting desperately.

"Burning Spring!" he roared, burning a Life Spring to gain tenfold in strength.

Chu Hao also executed his ultimate move. The Deep Blue Sword in his hand, its edge wrapped in cyan flame. Although Starlight was indestructible, it was no threat to Elemental Transformation. Only the fire of his physical constitution could do the job.

He unleashed the Mad Thunder Sword Technique, seeking a swift conclusion to the fight.

Chu Baishan met him head-on, his Life Spring burning, granting him a tenfold increase in power, equivalent to ascending two minor realms. In his view, such strength should unquestionably crush Chu Hao.

Boom!

He punched out, only to have Chu Hao casually deflect it, instead sending a numb sensation up his own arm. He couldn’t believe it; he hadn’t gained the upper hand with that strike?

Just how profound was this kid’s cultivation to be this terrifying?

But he had no more time to ponder, as a sword thrust from Chu Hao reached him, so fast he could barely react, as if the sword had always been there and he had run into it himself.

He gritted his teeth, and his chest immediately turned into a ball of flame.

Elemental Transformation.

Spurt, the sword pierced through, going straight through his chest, and the few drops of blood on the sword tip were instantly vaporized.

A look of disbelief crossed Chu Baishan’s face. He stared blankly at Chu Hao, reaching out as if to grasp something, but his arm fell limply. Until death, he couldn’t understand why he would be run through with a sword after undergoing Elemental Transformation?

Indeed, Elemental Transformation could counter Elemental Transformation, but there was no record of it extending to weapons, so why was he killed by a single thrust?

He glared at Chu Hao bitterly, his breathing ceasing already.

A sword through the heart, even the War God had but one path to death.

"No—" As Chu Chitian watched, he grew frantic and yelled at Chu Hao, "You little beast, even if I have to die, I will drag you down with me." He rushed towards Chu Hao heedlessly.

Fearing for Chu Hao’s safety, He Luo quickly moved to protect him.

Who knew that although Chu Chitian was fiercely shouting, he had no real intention of fighting to the death? When He Luo moved, Chu Chitian took the opportunity to flee. Talk of revenge, claiming a willingness to die, it was all deception.

Such an Old Fox.

He Luo swiftly gave chase, but he was actually a grade below Chu Chitian in realm and nearly matched in speed. Unless Chu Chitian turned back to fight, it was clearly impossible for He Luo to catch up.

The golden pupil eye allowed He Luo to see through Chu Chitian’s every move, but it didn’t actually enhance his power.

Seeing Chu Chitian about to escape, Chu Hao raised his voice and said, "Uncle Luo, try infusing Divine Sense into the golden pupil, it might unleash tremendous power."

He Luo now had no doubts about Chu Hao and immediately took up the golden pupil, pouring into it a thread of Divine Sense. In an instant, a beam of light shot out, lacking precision, hitting the ground and ripping a crack in the solid earth.

Startled, He Luo quickly aimed the golden pupil at Chu Chitian, and the beam of light immediately extended towards him.

How fast is light?

In the blink of an eye, the beam of light had caught up to Chu Chitian, starting at his right heel and extending upwards over the top of his head.

A terrifying scene unfolded as the light passed over, Chu Chitian was literally cut in half. He slowly turned around, with half of his face showing intense disbelief, but his form fell to the ground, spraying fresh blood everywhere.

A War Venerate of high standing had died in such a humiliating manner.

Even Chu Hao was taken aback by the power of the golden pupil—it was so formidable! Although the original owner of the golden pupil was a Divine Beast, possibly a being more powerful than the War God, in the hands of a War Venerate, it could still unleash such terrifying power.

Indeed, the second most powerful physique in the world had the power to defy the heavens.

He Luo couldn’t believe it either. Was this the power of an Ancestral Artifact, to easily eradicate a peer War Venerate with a single strike? Ancestral Artifacts were subject to strict requirements for use, needing a compatible bloodline to be activated, and by all that is righteous, he’d only infused a trace of Soul Power.

It was some time before he came to his senses, walked over, collected Chu Chitian’s Mustard Seed Ring, and handed it along with the golden pupil to Chu Hao.

"Thank you, Uncle Luo!" Chu Hao secured the golden pupil and then probed the Mustard Seed Ring with his Divine Sense. This was the collection of a War Venerate, certainly a vast fortune. As expected, the ring was filled with Star Stones, most of which were above Fourth Grade, and even Third or Second Grade, though he didn’t know for sure, having only scanned with Divine Sense.

He Luo didn’t inquire about the origin of the golden pupil. In his view, he was the servant, Chu Hao the master, and it was not his place to interfere.

With all enemies eliminated, Chu Hao finally had time to ask Fat Cat, "Why can’t that stele be moved, and what’s so peculiar about it?"

"Because," Fat Cat said in an extremely serious tone, "that is the Demon Suppression Stele."

"The Demon Suppression Stele... What is that?"

"The Demon Suppression Stele itself is extraordinary, and what requires a Demon Suppression Stele to suppress is even more so!"

Chu Hao was also startled, saying, "Are you suggesting that, like Black Iron City, there is a being from Ancient Times sealed here?"

"No, no, no," Fat Cat shook its head. "The lunatic under Black Iron City sealed himself, but no one would use the Demon Suppression Stele to seal themselves, because that thing is deadly!"

It paused a moment, explaining, "Being suppressed by the Demon Suppression Stele not only reduces one’s Cultivation over time but also cuts short one’s lifespan; it’s always used to suppress only enemies. Moreover, the Demon Suppression Stele itself is very precious. A being worthy of being suppressed by it... would absolutely be outrageously powerful."

"Furthermore," it continued, "if you were the person being suppressed and you were trapped for tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years, what would you do once you were freed?"

"A frenzied massacre, no doubt!"

Chu Hao looked at the stele and said, "Maybe the person below is already dead."

"Impossible!" Fat Cat immediately shook its head. "If it were dead, the Demon Suppression Stele would no longer emit light; this is a divine object, and unless it’s an omen of extreme misfortune, even I would want to get one."

"Do you have any recollection of who might be suppressed here?" Chu Hao asked curiously, because anyone to be suppressed by the Demon Suppression Stele was a true big shot, and the ordinary folks simply did not qualify.

"In my time, I’ve heard that a few have been suppressed by the Demon Suppression Stele, and it was a long time ago. Those were real monsters, and hopefully, it’s not any of them, otherwise that would be too terrifying." Fat Cat shivered, but refused to say who those people were.

Chu Hao changed the subject by asking, "How can I claim the Spiritual Fire?"

"That’s easy, you just have to fully release your physique, and the Spiritual Fire will definitely come to you," explained Fat Cat.

"That easy?" Chu Hao was incredulous.

"You are the Taiyang Body, utterly yang and rigid, for Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, fusing with you would also be beneficial," Fat Cat said.

Confused, Chu Hao asked, "If I fuse with it, won’t it disappear? How could there be any benefit?"

"You don’t understand. Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, born of the will of Heaven and Earth, complying with the Heavenly Dao, following nature, for it, merging with a strong being is fate. You have the Taiyang Body for it, the best host, and this fusion is not consumption... Meow, kid, how come you have so many questions? Just fuse with it, and you’ll know," Fat Cat said, growing impatient.

"Dead cat, talking won’t kill you!" Chu Hao sent this last sentence with his Divine Sense, then walked over to He Luo and said, "Uncle Luo, I will merge with the Spiritual Fire. Protect me."

He Luo’s mouth hung open slightly, merging with Spiritual Fire? Easier said than done.

Let’s not even discuss the terrifying heat of the Spiritual Fire, and whether this was akin to suicide; just the speed of the Spiritual Fire itself was incredibly alarming, otherwise, how could he, a War Venerate, have failed to catch it for so long? 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
