"I wonder if there is anything else the Blood Emperor needs Three-Eyed to do? Please give your orders!" Just then, the Three-Eyed Emperor asked again.
"May I see your divine eye?" Lin Yun asked thoughtfully.
Innate supernatural abilities are not something every cultivator possesses. The Three-Eyed Emperor's divine eye ability is clearly not an ordinary innate supernatural ability, but rather a top-tier trump card. His request was actually somewhat abrupt.
This is also why he didn't ask the Three-Eyed Emperor about this matter at first, but instead let the Three-Eyed Emperor cultivate here for a period of time. On the one hand, the previous environment was rare and should not be wasted. On the other hand, he didn't want to give others the impression of using his power to oppress others if he asked about this matter as soon as he asked the Three-Eyed Emperor to stay. In case the Three-Eyed Emperor refused or refused to comply even at the cost of his life, he was not the kind of person to force others.
Therefore, he did not ask about it at first.
That being said, if the Three-Eyed Emperor were willing to show him something, or even help him with some things, he wouldn't mind giving the Three-Eyed Emperor some more benefits, or even a great opportunity.
"Why not?" Upon hearing that Lin Yun was talking about this matter, the Three-Eyed Emperor smiled without hesitation and immediately agreed.
If other cultivators asked him to do such a thing, he might not necessarily agree. After all, this is his trump card. If the enemy learns about it in detail or analyzes how to deal with it, the power of this trump card will be greatly reduced. That's the least of his worries. If the enemy were to outmaneuver him without his knowledge, it could lead to his utter destruction.
However, Lin Yun is different. Lin Yun's strength far surpasses his. If Lin Yun wanted to do something to him, even if he used his divine eye ability, it would be useless. Furthermore, he trusts the character of this Blood Emperor and believes that he would not spread his trump card.
"Alright, can you demonstrate it now so I can see?" Lin Yun smiled and nodded.
He knew that some cultivators needed certain conditions to use their innate supernatural powers, but he didn't know what conditions this Three-Eyed Emperor needed to use his Divine Eye power.
"No problem, Blood Emperor, please be careful!" The Three-Eyed Emperor nodded again without hesitation. The excellent environment he had been recuperating for more than two months had completely healed the problems left over from his previous use of the Divine Eye Divine Power. He had no problem using the Divine Eye Divine Power again.
"Buzz!"
As he spoke, the third eye on his forehead began to emit a mysterious light, slowly covering Lin Yun, without any regard for the ghost cultivators around him.
"Is this the Three-Eyed Emperor's divine eye ability?"
"According to what the Blood Emperor said earlier, the Three-Eyed Emperor's divine eye ability seems to be able to control the flow of time?"
Seeing the Three-Eyed Emperor use his Divine Eye ability, the surrounding ghost cultivators were all amazed. Previously, the Three-Eyed Emperor had always used his Divine Eye ability during battles, and he used it extremely quickly, so they didn't have much time to observe before it ended.
They had seen innate divine abilities before, but none of them had ever seen one that could control the flow of time. They were all very curious. However, since this was something the Blood Emperor had asked the Three-Eyed Emperor to do, which also indicated that he wanted to study it, none of them dared to release their mental energy to investigate or disturb him.
Soon, the mysterious light enveloped Lin Yun. Lin Yun did not resist, but simply closed his eyes and carefully sensed it.
Because the Three-Eyed Emperor controlled the speed, this divine eye technique lasted for several minutes before ending.
After the Divine Eye technique ended, Lin Yun kept his eyes closed, seemingly experiencing something, and did not speak.
Seeing this, the Three-Eyed Emperor hesitated for a moment, then quickly released another divine eye power, slowly covering Lin Yun.
Lin Yun did not stop him, and kept his eyes closed. Soon, the mysterious light covered him again.
Several minutes later, the mysterious light emanating from this divine eye disappeared once again.
Seeing that Lin Yun still had his eyes closed and did not seem to be awake, this time, the Three-Eyed Emperor did not hesitate at all and immediately used his divine eye power again, slowly covering Lin Yun.
Several minutes later, the mysterious light emitted by the third Divine Eye also disappeared.
At this moment, Lin Yun still kept his eyes closed.
Seeing this, the Three-Eyed Emperor gritted his teeth and was about to unleash his divine eye power once again.
He can only use the Divine Eye Divine Power three times in a short period of time. If he uses it again, it will damage his essence. However, if he only uses the Divine Eye Divine Power four times, he can still withstand the slight damage to his essence and can slowly recover later.
He didn't know what Lin Yun was comprehending, but subconsciously he didn't want Lin Yun's comprehension to be interrupted because the mysterious light emitted by the Divine Eye was insufficient. It wouldn't be too late to stop it when Lin Yun couldn't bear it anymore.
"Stop, no need to use it!" But at this moment, Lin Yun opened his eyes and said.
"No need to use it anymore?" The Three-Eyed Emperor was taken aback, then breathed a sigh of relief. Soon, he realized that it was probably because the Blood Emperor sensed that he could no longer use the Divine Eye Divine Power, and that's why he was told to stop. He couldn't help but feel a little touched.
At the same time, he felt even more ashamed of his original thoughts. With such a character as the Blood Emperor, it was absolutely impossible for him to do what he originally thought.
"If I'm not mistaken, in your previous life as a living being, you should have had the bloodline of the Three-Eyed God Clan among the ancient gods..." Lin Yun looked at the Three-Eyed Emperor, smiled slightly, and said.
"Ancient gods, the Three-Eyed Gods?" The Three-Eyed Emperor was taken aback.
"That's right. Before the birth of the Great World of Living Beings, the world was in chaos. Later, chaos was divided, yin and yang appeared, yin and yang interacted, and all living beings were born. Every living being has the realm of gods and the power of gods. That is, the ancient gods. The Three-Eyed Gods are one of them, and they are a powerful race among them..." Lin Yun recalled the records he had seen in the history of the gods and said slowly.
His father was a god from the beginning of chaos, but he was not. By the time he grew up, the Three-Eyed Gods had disappeared into the annals of history, perhaps during the period of war among the gods, or perhaps during the war for the unification of the gods.
The records show that the number of divine races at the beginning of chaos was many times smaller than the number at the time of unification.
However, it is not entirely clear when the Three-Eyed God Clan completely disappeared, but one thing is certain: among the vanished god races, they were a formidable race.
The three-eyed gods are mostly in the appearance of ordinary humans, with a few having other appearances. They have a third eye between their foreheads. Not all of them have the ability to control the flow of time, but rather they possess various powerful supernatural abilities, with the ability to control the flow of time being just one of them.
However, the ability to control the flow of time is considered a powerful divine ability among the innate abilities of the Three-Eyed Gods.
This is also why Lin Yun didn't immediately think that the Three-Eyed Emperor might be a member of the Three-Eyed God Clan.
Many creatures have a third eye on their forehead; some even have hundreds or thousands of eyes. However, having three eyes does not automatically make one a three-eyed god.
At the same time, it is not only the Three-Eyed Gods who can use the innate ability to control the flow of time; it's just that the innate ability used by the Three-Eyed Gods is more powerful and more mysterious.
However, after carefully experiencing the feeling of the Three-Eyed Emperor releasing his divine eye power, Lin Yun noticed a faint trace of chaotic energy within it. This chaotic energy felt extremely ancient to him, leading him to conclude that the Three-Eyed Emperor was likely a descendant of the ancient Three-Eyed God Clan. Because this innate divine power was of an extremely high level, the Three-Eyed Emperor, after his previous life ended and he resumed his cultivation as a ghost cultivator, still exists today.
Afterwards, Lin Yun briefly explained the situation of the ancient gods to the Three-Eyed Emperor.
"Born a god-level expert, the ancient gods are so powerful... I... I am actually a descendant of the ancient gods..." The Three-Eyed Emperor was shocked as he listened to Lin Yun's story.
"There are still such powerful races in the world? Before the birth of the Great World of Living Beings..." The surrounding ghost cultivators were also shocked when they heard Lin Yun's story.
From the Blood Emperor's serious expression, they could tell that he wasn't joking. A powerful figure like the Blood Emperor wouldn't lie, so what he was saying was probably true.
It truly broadened their horizons.
The ghost cultivators present were all top-tier ghost cultivators from the Netherworld. Most of them had heard of the legendary existence of divine realm experts in the Great World of Living Beings, and naturally knew how powerful those divine realm experts were.
Unexpectedly, in ancient times, there were even newborn infants with the legendary strength of gods. Compared with those gods, the current achievements of the Netherworld are really too weak.
Furthermore, the Blood Emperor knows far too much, even knowing such ancient matters. What has the Blood Emperor experienced, or what kind of background does he have?
Considering the Blood Emperor's extraordinary talent, they couldn't help but feel that the Blood Emperor had become even more mysterious.
“No, if I am a descendant of the ancient gods, my parents should also be descendants of the ancient gods, and even my parents’ elders should be… But they are not… Moreover, I should have been a god at birth, but I am not…” Soon, the Three-Eyed Emperor thought of something and frowned.
It wasn't that he was questioning the Blood Emperor, but rather that he felt the Blood Emperor's words were somewhat unreasonable.
"It's simple. Your parents might not be of the same race, right? Even if they are, their elders might not be either? The ancient gods have existed for too long, and the three-eyed gods have long since disappeared into the river of history. Those who remain mostly possess the bloodline of the three-eyed gods, but are not true three-eyed gods. Without awakening their bloodline, they are just ordinary beings. Only by awakening their bloodline and exploring step by step can they have the possibility of becoming a member of the ancient three-eyed gods!" Lin Yun said with a faint smile.
Such things are not common in the Netherworld, but they are actually quite common in the Great World of Living Beings. Some powerful races may have various bloodline descendants. Even if some of these descendants awaken their ancestral bloodline, very few can ultimately reach the level of their ancestral bloodline.
"Thank you for enlightening me, Blood Emperor. I understand now..." The Three-Eyed Emperor also realized his mistake and said.
Although knowing his ancestors' achievements didn't help his current strength, he was still very proud to know how powerful his ancestors were.
The ancient gods—the very name evokes a sense of nobility, grandeur, terror, and power.
He actually has such blood.
"As far as I know, billions of years ago, there were still ruins left by the Three-Eyed God Clan in some places of the Great World of Living Beings. It's just unclear whether they still exist now. Acquired ghost cultivators cannot achieve the God Realm. However, after you became a ghost cultivator, the Three-Eyed God Clan bloodline in your body did not disappear. If you enter the ruins and deeply develop your bloodline, it is not impossible for you to reach the God Realm. Otherwise, if you want to achieve the God Realm, the only way is to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation..." Lin Yun nodded slightly and continued.
"What? Acquired ghost cultivators cannot reach the Divine Realm?" When he heard Lin Yun's first words, the Three-Eyed Emperor was somewhat surprised, but when he heard Lin Yun's second words, the Three-Eyed Emperor felt a chill in his heart.
He has now reached the peak of the Saint King realm. The next step would be to reach the legendary God realm. However, he has no clue about the God realm. He still believes that the reason why he only broke through to the thirty-sixth level of the new Heaven of the Netherworld is because of this.
This time, Lin Yun broke through four levels of heaven in a row, greatly improving the environment of the Netherworld. He thought he had a chance to advance to the God Realm and had even been excitedly fantasizing about the future. Unexpectedly, he was given a cold shower by the Blood Emperor.
“The true divine realm emphasizes the unity of Yin and Yang. Acquired ghost cultivators lack the Heavenly Dao and cannot achieve true Yin-Yang unity, so it is inevitable that they cannot reach the divine realm. Otherwise, why do you think I reincarnated in the first place?” Lin Yun glanced at the Three-Eyed Emperor and said slowly.
He didn't say this through telepathy, because there's nothing wrong with saying such things.
In truth, the Three-Eyed Emperor is already extremely fortunate to have the hope of reaching the divine realm without needing to reincarnate.
"A ghost cultivator who has acquired their skills cannot reach the divine realm?"
"Such a thing really happened?"
"Damn it, I'm a post-natal ghost cultivator too!"
"The Blood Emperor's reincarnation was actually because of this?"
Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, some of the ghost cultivators present felt a chill in their hearts and were greatly alarmed, because they were also acquired ghost cultivators.
The ghost cultivators present were all top-tier ghost cultivators in the Netherworld. Even those who were only at the Saint King level were not simply Saint Kings; they all possessed great talent and naturally hoped to reach the legendary God level in the future.
Now, Lin Yun is telling them directly that their path to the God Realm is over. How can they not feel disheartened?
No, it's not completely frozen yet!
There is also the path of reincarnation! But how many ghost cultivators dare to do reincarnation? They have already come this far, how many are willing to do it?
"Could it be that I can only reach the peak of the Saint King realm in my entire life..." some ghost cultivators thought bitterly.
"I'm only at the Saintly Monarch Realm right now. The peak Saint King Realm is still a long way off. Moreover, the God Realm is legendary in the Great World of Living Beings, which means it's extremely difficult to reach. Even if I'm qualified, I might not be able to reach it. Perhaps, it wouldn't be bad if I could reach the peak Saint King Realm in this lifetime..." Some ghost cultivators comforted themselves in this way.
