Chapter 848: Famous Throughout Luotian, Evolution of the Third Eye

At a glance, the Character 'Zhan' on the Scroll Screen seemed extremely ordinary, but upon closer inspection, an unimaginable, monstrous murderous intent instantly surged from it, pressing down like a mountain peak!

At this moment, Wang Lin felt as if he were experiencing an illusion: the heavens and earth violently collapsed and disintegrated before his eyes. Everything between heaven and earth vanished—the Thousand-Zhang Blue Stone, the surrounding Cultivators, and even the Thunder Immortal Temple—nothing remained except the Character 'Zhan'!

Wang Lin felt his entire body shake, and he immediately fell into a trance. It was as if a force suddenly erupted from the Character 'Zhan', descending with a rumble, seizing his mind and spirit, causing his Primordial Spirit and Physical Body to feel separated by this power, losing all connection.

Monstrous murderous intent permeated the air. Wang Lin felt as though he were a Mortal standing naked in the depths of winter, the bone-chilling cold threatening to extinguish the flame of his life.

In this instant, in his trance, Wang Lin seemed to return to the past, when the Heaven Defying Bead reached Perfection, and the Gate of Heaven and Earth materialized within it. The moment it opened, a surge of Origin Power violently appeared!

Above his glabella, the Third Eye instantly materialized and slowly opened, though no red light shone forth. Wang Lin was motionless, but his mind trembled violently. The feeling he experienced years ago when facing the gate of the Heaven Defying Bead resonated once more!

However, compared to that feeling back then, this time was countless times weaker. The Wang Lin of the past nearly collapsed just by looking at it, but now, although he was shocked by the Character 'Zhan', he could endure it.

Clearly, the Origin contained within the Character 'Zhan' could not compare to the Heaven Defying. For Wang Lin, the Heaven Defying was too profound, but the Character 'Zhan' was something he could explore.

All of this takes time to describe, but in reality, it all happened the instant Wang Lin raised his head. The total time elapsed was merely one breath!

Lie Yunzi originally did not think highly of Wang Lin. In his view, although Xu Mu's Divine Abilities were astonishing, if Qing Shui had not intervened in the fight against Luo Su, the one who would have ultimately lost must have been Xu Mu!

As for the Second Trial, the opponent swallowing the Thunder Spirit was also a coincidence. Overall, Opportunity accounted for the vast majority of his success. Lie Yunzi had cultivated his entire life, relying solely on his own strength to reach his current level, and he most despised those who relied on Opportunity. In his eyes, Xu Mu was such a person.

However, in this instant, his eyes burst forth with unimaginable brilliance, and he took three steps forward, staring intently at Wang Lin, a voice seemingly roaring within his heart.

"One breath!!! This Xu Mu actually entered meditation in just one breath!!" Even with Lie Yunzi's composure, his heart pounded wildly. For generations, no one in his Zhan Family had been able to Enter Meditation in a single breath. Even their astounding Ancestor took two breaths!

At this moment, Lie Yunzi had long since expelled his previous impression of Xu Ting from his mind, replacing it entirely with Wang Lin!

Not only him, but the Old Eccentrics on the surrounding Cushions were also shocked in this instant. Like Lie Yunzi, they hadn't paid much attention to Wang Lin's previous two trials, finding them merely amusing. But now, they were all truly beginning to take him seriously.

Blood Godzi's eyes narrowed sharply as he stared at Wang Lin. Amidst his shock, murderous intent arose once more!

"This boy actually entered meditation in one breath, he absolutely cannot be allowed to live!" As he thought this, he immediately felt a murderous intent lock onto him. He turned his head and saw Qing Shui giving him a cold glance.

Blood Godzi coldly snorted, suppressing the murderous intent and hiding it deep within his heart.

Apart from Blood Godzi, the Old Ancestors of the other Cultivation Families with Legacy tracing back to the Immortal Realm were all staring fixedly.

The Old Ancestor of the Xiang Family had an even deeper look of appreciation in his eyes. The more he looked at Wang Lin, the more pleasing he found him. He thought to himself, "This boy is certainly no ordinary person!"

Yan Leizi smiled, and upon seeing the shocked Lie Yunzi, his smile deepened.

Zhan Konglie, who knew the affairs of his Family, immediately gasped when he saw Wang Lin entering meditation in one breath, freezing in place. As for Xu Ting, he frowned, his heart extremely complicated. He was originally a Heaven's Chosen, yet he never expected that in the Trial of Man, all the glory would be stolen by Xu Mu, and in the Trial of Earth, he was vastly inferior. Now, in this Trial of Heaven, he had gained Lie Yunzi's praise, but he never imagined that all of it would vanish in an instant, as if Xu Mu were his destined nemesis!

Wang Lin split his entire mind and spirit into two and merged it into the Character 'Zhan'. He immediately sensed a trace of Origin Power slowly integrating into his body from the Character 'Zhan'. Just as it completed a rotation and was about to withdraw, it suddenly paused. This trace of Origin Power then rushed madly toward Wang Lin's glabella at lightning speed.

At his glabella, it merged into the Third Eye, and instantly, the red light within the Third Eye intensified and shone brightly.

As traces of Origin Power poured in, the red light of Wang Lin's Third Eye became almost blinding. Ten breaths of time flashed by. The moment Wang Lin awoke at the tenth breath, the red light within his Third Eye erupted like a suppressed force, instantly spraying out in a fan shape!

The flash of red light caused the surrounding Cultivators who witnessed it to cry out in alarm. They saw the fan-shaped red light spread out, completely enveloping the Scroll containing the Character 'Zhan'.

In a trance, Wang Lin vaguely saw a strange scene on the Scroll. It was a distant Starry Sky, where an Old Man in White Robes drew a line in the sky with his right index finger, instantly writing out the Character 'Zhan'! This character flickered, split into six portions, and became Six Scrolls.

A dense Origin Power emanated from the old man. Carrying a hint of melancholy, regret, and unwillingness, he gazed fondly at the Character 'Zhan', then raised his head to look toward the Starry Sky, his eyes instantly revealing an expression of disbelief.

Wang Lin's body trembled, the red light of the Third Eye on his glabella vanished, and he completely woke up. The scene just now was something he had vaguely seen after establishing a connection with the Scroll, using the Divine Ability of the Third Eye. It felt like an illusion, yet it was so real!

As the red light disappeared, Wang Lin's Third Eye gradually retracted, but it did not vanish. Instead, it seemed eternal, transforming into a Red Line that solidified on Wang Lin's glabella. At this moment, Wang Lin looked slightly unsettling!

"You saw it?" Lie Yunzi took a step, instantly arriving before Wang Lin. He stared at him, his voice laced with excitement.

Wang Lin remained silent and nodded. He could clearly feel that the Red Line on his glabella contained a power that even he found terrifying. At this moment, there was a stinging sensation, as if this power refused to stay dormant and was intent on bursting out.

Lie Yunzi stared at Wang Lin, then laughed heartily after a long while, saying, "Good, Xu Mu. After the Immortal Sealing concludes, come find me. This old man will let you see the remaining two Battle Diagrams!"
