Chapter 57: Tears of the Auspicious Beast, Resonance of Destiny and the Sharingan
The air in the Star Dou Great Forest seemed to freeze in extreme cold at this moment, and the originally violent Soul Power fluctuations instantly fell silent.
"Boom—!"
A powerful aura approached frantically.
Du Busi's expression changed.
As the Sect Master of the Body Sect, he stood almost at the Peak of human Soul Masters; something that could make him show such a look of facing a formidable enemy...
Was truly unique in this World!
"That black dragon... why would he take the initiative to walk out of the Star Dou core zone?"
Du Busi's voice was hoarse, and dark green Soul Power rhythmically pulsed around his body.
Sure enough, in the next second.
The space in front of Lin Sheng shattered like a broken mirror, collapsing layer by layer, and a figure as black as ink, exuding a majesty that transcended the plane, stepped out slowly.
Beast God, Di Tian.
"Di Tian, what are you doing here? We haven't harmed any Soul Beasts."
Du Busi took a step forward, shielding the weakened Lin Sheng behind him.
"..."
However, Di Tian's golden vertical pupils didn't even linger on Du Busi for a moment; his gaze was fixed straight on Lin Sheng, his tone carrying a hint of doubt and scrutiny.
"Human, put away your hostility. I have appeared today not for slaughter, but for this human youth."
As soon as these words were spoken, both Du Busi and Lin Sheng were stunned.
"What?"
Before they could react.
A little fellow exuding a magnificent golden light crawled out from the spatial rift behind Di Tian.
It possessed eyes as brilliant as rubies.
In the center of its forehead was a closed vertical Eye of Destiny; it was the Emperor Auspicious Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
"Little fellow, it's you."
"Long time no see."
Lin Sheng looked at the Auspicious Beast that had run up to him.
His face, which was originally as cold as ice, actually showed a rare, sincere smile!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion had no wariness toward Lin Chen at all.
It joyfully jumped in front of Lin Sheng and stretched out its small head to rub against Lin Sheng's palm.
"Human, I knew it was you."
"I sensed your aura."
Du Busi stared blankly from the side; usually arrogant, he couldn't even speak clearly now.
"Ho... Holy crap? Lin Sheng, since when were you so close with the Emperor Auspicious Beast?"
Di Tian stood aside with his hands behind his back.
His handsome face was filled with helplessness...
Who could have imagined that this Auspicious Beast, pampered by everyone in the forest, would insist on having him lead the way as soon as she sensed Lin Sheng's familiar aura?
"The Auspicious Beast is truly..."
But Di Tian didn't intend to stop her.
He had observed before that this youth's strange eyes seemed to provide some kind of feedback to the Auspicious Beast, which might be a blessing for Star Dou's destiny.
"Perhaps, I can make use of this."
...
Just as Lin Sheng stroked the Auspicious Beast's head, Electrolux in Lin Sheng's Sea of Consciousness suddenly opened his eyes.
"Child, release that newly born Sharingan on your forehead."
Electrolux's voice carried a hint of urgency.
"I sense it; the Power of Destiny within this Auspicious Beast is creating an extremely rare resonance of Karma with your Sharingan's Origin."
Electrolux spoke.
"This might be the turning point for your blind left eye, and even more so, a stroke of fortune for this third eye of yours!"
Lin Sheng nodded.
The slit on his forehead that had been closed slowly opened, and the dark red Three-Tomoe Sharingan bloomed with an eerie light.
Almost at the same instant, the Eye of Destiny on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's forehead also snapped open!
"Buzz—!"
A sacred and mysterious beam of golden-red light soared into the sky.
Di Tian originally wanted to stop it...
But he suddenly discovered that the Power of Destiny within the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was not only undepleted but was becoming increasingly thick under the guidance of that red fluctuation.
"Is this... a sharing of destiny?"
Di Tian was shocked; such a thing had never happened in the history of Soul Beasts.
At the moment of resonance, Lin Sheng's consciousness was swept into a brilliant galaxy.
Under the insight of the Sharingan.
He saw the Star Dou fate that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had carried since birth and saw the scenes of the little fellow's life growing up.
And the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's consciousness...
At that moment, it went against the current and crashed into the deepest ruins of Lin Sheng's heart.
"Is this... his inner World?"
She saw the night consumed by blood and fire.
Saw, in the cold rain.
The youth desperately holding the cold corpses of his parents, watching those originally pure eyes turn into cursed tomoe at that moment.
"Heavens, his heart... how could it be so painful?"
She felt the abyss-like, bottomless pain and loneliness in Lin Sheng's heart.
And the determination to crush his Soul for the sake of revenge.
"Whimper—"
The moment the resonance ended, large teardrops actually overflowed from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes.
This Auspicious Beast, who symbolized destiny.
For the first time, her heart ached because of a human's past.
It turned out that the coldness he displayed was because his heart was already filled with ruins.
"Little fellow, what's wrong..."
Lin Sheng restrained the ocular power on his forehead.
At this moment, he felt that his originally depleted Soul Power had mostly recovered under the nourishment of the Power of Destiny.
Only...
His left eye, which had completely lost its light, still had no reaction.
He reached out, gently wiped the tears from the corner of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes, smiled, and as if by magic, took out several specially made chicken legs from his spirit tool and handed them over.
"Why are you crying, little one?"
Lin Sheng's voice was so gentle that Du Busi thought he had mistaken him for someone else.
While nibbling on a chicken leg, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked up and said in a crisp voice filled with heartache.
"Human, your eyes are filled with the pain and sorrow of the entire World."
"This power will make you strong, but it will also make you lose yourself, turning you into a monster that only knows revenge..."
Lin Sheng was stunned.
He didn't expect this little fellow to actually understand his Origin through the resonance.
He remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking.
"I won't get lost, and I won't be completely swallowed by hatred."
Di Tian stepped forward slowly.
He looked at the now-closed pupil on Lin Sheng's forehead and asked in a deep voice, "Human youth, I must admit you are an anomaly."
"Why can this eye of yours provide feedback to the Auspicious Beast's Power of Destiny? And... what's the matter with your left eye?"
Facing the pressure of the Beast God, Lin Sheng replied calmly.
"That was the price paid to bury a Heart Demon."
"As for the feedback... it's probably because there is some resonance between the Origins of the Sharingan and the Eye of Destiny, so they can help each other in cultivation."
This was Lin Sheng's guess.
It was also the most reasonable explanation.
Di Tian gave Lin Sheng a deep look and didn't press further.
He could feel it.
"Hmm... this human is even more complicated than I thought. Regardless, he has helped the Auspicious Beast."
He gazed at Lin Sheng's blood-red Sharingan.
"I have never seen a human possess a Martial Soul like yours. I must admit, this is a powerful and terrifying Martial Soul."
Di Tian spoke calmly, his tone carrying a bit of admiration.
