Chapter 4902: Violet Crystal Heavenly Eye

chapter 4902: violet crystal heavenly eye

the middle-aged man was holding a violet crystal, which was his remaining eye.

“friend, you must accept it,” said the middle-aged man, his figure starting to grow illusory as he had lost his final eye.

“senior, your eye still has some power left in it. you can use that power to try to reincarnate! even if it’s only a slight chance, it’s better than having no chance!” urged long chen.

originally, this man had planned to drag down those eight corpses with him using his eye’s power. however, due to only helping long chen move the corpses, this eye still had some power left. he had condensed all of his energy into this eye and given it to long chen to thank him.

however, how could long chen accept it? long chen hoped the middle-aged man would use this final bit of energy to fight against the heavenly daos and reincarnate. although the chances of success were low, without gambling, how could he know the final result?

“thank you for thinking of me. however, this world no longer has anything binding me to it.”

“what about your wife and children?”

“they are no longer present. i used the reincarnation eye and didn’t find the slightest trace of their karma. they were killed long ago and couldn’t enter the cycle of reincarnation,” replied the middle-aged man.

“how can that be?! who killed them?!” long chen clenched his teeth, his killing intent raging. he couldn’t accept this result.

“that isn’t important. what is important is that i wasn’t able to protect them, so let me pass away in peace.” the middle-aged man then looked at long chen apologetically and said, “after i used the reincarnation eye, the little bit of energy in my eye has been reduced to almost nothing. it is no longer able to help you fight your enemies. however, if you use your violet blood to nourish it, it will let you see many things you were unable to see. i’m very happy to leave it in your hands. even though i’m already gone, my power will continue to influence the future of this world.”

the moment the middle-aged man pressed the violet eye into long chen’s hand, long chen’s heart shook. he realized that this senior of the heavenly eye race no longer had any desire to live, having no more family to protect. long chen couldn’t help but sigh sorrowfully.nôv(el)b\\jnn

a grand pre-emperor expert was unable to protect his own wife and children. just how sorrowful was that?

“why is living the way you want so difficult?!” raged long chen.

“do you remember a certain medicine called the infinite eight bitters root?” at this time, the earth cauldron’s voice rang out.

“to be born, to grow old, to get sick, to die, to part with loved ones, encountering what we hate, wanting something unattainable, and the five negative skandhas...” murmured long chen. he naturally remembered, but he shook his head. “i can accept the fact that all people are born, grow old, get sick, and die. that’s simply life. but why must loved ones be parted? who started this? if a desire is so simple, why can’t it be attained? as for the five skandhas, so what? greed, anger, love, desire, idiocy—as long as we don’t affect others, why can’t i do whatever i want? if i want to be an idiot, i can be an idiot. just who made the endless suffering of this world? who controls the workings of the ten thousand daos? just who is shrouding people’s hearts?”

long chen’s voice grew more and more impassioned as he spoke until it became a powerful roar. his barely calmed emotions boiled over once again.

“not bad. you’ve grasped the important point so quickly,” said the earth cauldron with a hint of praise.

long chen was startled. “are you saying that...?”

“the closer you get to the truth, the more careful you have to be. you should hurry up and increase your power!” answered the earth cauldron.

long chen instantly calmed down. for the earth cauldron to suddenly bring up the infinite eight bitters root, it was clearly trying to make a point. were the eight bitternesses really under someone’s control?

long chen slowly lowered his head and looked at the violet crystal eye in his hand. he then raised it to his own eye.

buzz.

the violet crystal eye quivered slightly. following that, long chen saw a scene that made him cry out in shock.
