Chapter 135: I Can’t Do It
Antediluvian Nether Eye?
Luo Wusheng thought to himself, looking at the eyeball in his hand.
Hmm, are you sure this is the one? This is just a normal-looking eyeball, that grand sounding name doesn't seem to fit this.
If Luo Wusheng were to name it, it would probably be something more fitting, like the "Live Streaming Eye," "Bullet Screen Eye," or "Social Death Eye," or the "Eye of Suffering", the kind of names that better suited its characteristics.
Feel the suffering, accept the suffering, and let the gaze bring the suffering of social death wherever it goes!
'But then again, this thing is an Artifact of the Netherkin Race, should I just give it to her? I can think of it as raising her impression of me.'
Luo Wusheng glanced at Yao Ji in front of him.
The pink haired fox girl quickly understood what he was thinking and shook her head with a smile. "A few days ago, this one did consider taking the Nether Eye back from Young Master. But now, there is no need."
"For this one, the [Antediluvian Nether Eye], though an Artifact passed down among the Netherkin Race for ages, has never been truly tamed. It's ultimately of no real use. Since Young Master has already tamed it, leaving it in Young Master's hands might reveal more of its special abilities. This one just hopes that if this [Antediluvian Nether Eye] undergoes any changes in the future, Young Master will inform this one through a message. Would the Young Master agree with such a condition?"
The beautiful and otherworldly red-eyed Netherqueen looked at the young man across from her with a hint of seriousness in her gaze.
"No problem."
After hearing the Nine-Tailed Fox Netherkin words, Luo Wusheng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.
The mind reading eyeball was still very useful to him. The built-in eye space inside of it could be used to trap people, the eyeball [Ephemeral Tether Nexus], the ability that allow him to see thing through shadow, also greatly increased his ability to gather information, and most importantly, the [Mind-Reading Bullet Screen] that specialized in giving other people social death was simply a god-tier skill. Luo Wusheng still remembered the scene when this bullet screen allowed him to survive the 3 way catfight between Little Yuli, his Junior Sister, and the Netherqueen at the opening of the Demon Artifact Pavilion.
That scene's brutal.
And in the future, if he continued to become more familiar with the usage of the mind reading eyeball and mastered the ability to enter the eye space like the Goat Netherkin, he could always drag his opponent into a 1 VS 1 duel, no matter how much backup nor support they bring.
Moreover, combined with his personally made Artifact, [Phantomless], which can increase it strength relative on how many people are watching it when it's being used, he can basically drag his opponent to the eye space, livestream their fight to the Immortal Nation resident, and then one shot his opponent just like when he did it against the Rat Netherkin.
He really didn't want to trade away such a good Artifact.
Fortunately, Yao Ji, due to being a former Monarch of a Nation, did not behave like a spoiled brat like a certain Peak Tribulation Crossing cultivator that shall not be named and didn't deman for him to give her 20 Star-Moon Jade as payment for the Nether Eye.
Seeing the young man nod, the Netherqueen revealed a beautiful smile.
Originally, even if the Antediluvian Nether Eye was already been tamed and had been changed in some way, she should not have handed over this valuable Artifact of the Netherkin Race to a Human. However, when that human was Luo Wusheng, she had a different thought.
Since she had known Luo Wusheng, he had repeatedly surprised her with his actions. She felt that she could gamble on this Demon Sect Holy Saint again to see if he could give her more surprises in the future.
'Maybe he could even unlock the hidden ability of the Antediluvian Nether Eye...'
The Netherqueen's eyes flickered slightly as she gently placed her hand on the Ancient-looking Guqin that was placed on her lap.
"Since Young Master has agreed, this one can finally be at ease. However, even though this Artifact has existed in the Netherland since ancient time, its origins are indeed mysterious, and there are very few records of its usage recorded."
Her slender fingers plucked the strings of the Guqin as she contemplated. "This Antediluvian Nether Eye has many unique abilities, but for those who cannot tame it, its assistance becomes extremely limited once they reach the Nascent Soul stage."
"However, it contains many special cultivation insights entwined within it. So even at the Nascent Soul stage, one can still comprehend the correct method to advance further into the path of cultivation, especially for a Nascent Soul in the Peak stage about to advance to the Tribulation Crossing stage. The benefits obtained from it are enormous. As for its other unique abilitites, this one believes Young Master, who has just tamed it, knows more about them than this one does."
Listening to her words, Luo Wusheng pondered.
No wonder that Peak Nascent Soul Goat Netherkin showed such greed for the eyeball after escaping into the eye space using his bizarre life-saving technique. However, the Goat Netherkin had never expected that the mind reading eyeball, which were considered a difficult-to-control Artifact of the Netherkin Race would be tamed by Luo Wusheng, in the end, he got captured by Luo Wushend and had been handed over to Miss Kirin.
He wondered what happened to the Goat Netherkin who had turned into a meatball in the end...
After knowing that Miss Kirin was the Mortal Alter Ego of the Empress, Luo Wusheng sighed in his heart and silently paid his respects to that unlucky Goat Netherkin, who was almost certainly going to be integrated for all of his secrets.
"Hmm? Since this Antediluvian Nether Eye is so special, why was it on that Rat Netherkin who is only at the Nascent Soul stage?"
Suddenly, Luo Wusheng noticed something.
If, as Yao Ji had said, this Antediluvian Nether Eye had many unique abilities that even a Peak Nascent Soul cultivator would covet, then it shouldn't have been an item that a relatively weak Rat Netherkin should possess. If the one who hold this Antediluvian Nether Eye a Peak Nascent Soul Netherkin instead, he might never have had a chance to obtain this thing.
"...This one must confess, she's also somewhat puzzled by this matter," Yao Ji admitted after a slight hesitation.
After a brief pause, she shook her head. "This one has been sealed for many years, and although it can gather information from the outside world through sending her Human Form as an illusionary avatar to the Royal City, this one still has limited knowledge of internal matters within the Netherland, let alone of the Netherkin Nation. However, since the Netherking has given the Rat the Antediluvian Nether Eye, there must be something special about him that made the Netherking change his mind..."
At this moment, Luo Wusheng thought of something more.
Is there anything special about that Rat Netherkin?
The Rat's specialness in being ugly doesn't count, after all, the Netherking would never give the Nether Eye to the Rat with that kind of reasoning.
While the Rat running away technique was indeed exceptional, it was still not on par with an escaping special technique of a normal Tribulation Crossing cultivator.
So, it was possible that it wasn't something special about the Rat Netherkin himself, perhaps it's something around him...
"The Buddhist Sect!"
A flash of realization crossed Luo Wusheng's mind.
He remembered that one of the things that Yue Xuanji had shown him when he asked her the 3 free questions was the Buddhist Rat Netherkin.
Seeing the puzzled expression on Yao Ji's face after he suddenly spoke, and after confirming that his words had no flaws, Luo Wusheng told her about what Yue Xuanji had seen through the Heavenly Mechanism for him last night.
During this process, the Netherqueen's beautiful face went through various expressions, and in the end, it became as calm as water.
"To think that such a thing happened..."
Her fingers plucked a string of the Guqin, producing a clear and melodious sound. Then, she furrowed her brows slightly and looked at Luo Wusheng.
"However, while this one does possess the ability to locate the location of a specific Netherkin, this one needs to do so with some specific information about the Netherkin, such as their True Name. Without it, this one can't offer much help…"
Luo Wusheng was stunned.
The Netherqueen need the Rat's true name first?
