Chapter 58: His Heart Held Nothing But Hatred
Du Busi looked at Di Tian in surprise.
Perhaps he hadn't expected Di Tian to give the Sharingan such a high evaluation.
"Could it be that Di Tian..."
At this moment, Du Busi was worried whether Di Tian would prevent Lin Sheng from becoming a threat to the soul beast race.
And directly strike Lin Sheng?!
Facing the questioning of the strongest soul beast in the World, Lin Chen's expression remained calm as he explained indifferently, "The Awakening of the Sharingan essentially originates from a special Spiritual energy secreted by the brain."
"The source of this energy is an extreme emotional impact. Just now, when I was in contact with the little fellow, the extreme emotion in my heart seemed to cross the boundaries of species."
Lin Chen simply told Di Tian calmly about his speculation regarding the resonance between the Sharingan and the Eye of Destiny.
"Therefore, a wonderful resonance of Origin was created between me and her Power of Destiny. In a sense, my Spiritual Origin is nourishing her Eye of Destiny, making it thicker and more resilient."
A strange light flashed in Di Tian's golden pupils, and he took a deep look at Lin Sheng.
"Mhm..."
"You are right."
As the Beast God, he could feel that the Auspicious Beast's current state was better than ever before, with her mind being even clearer.
Even!
Even the faint planar Luck of the Star Dou Great Forest had stabilized somewhat.
Since this human had not only refrained from harming the Auspicious Beast but had instead granted her a fortuitous opportunity.
He naturally no longer had a reason to look for trouble.
"Whew..."
Du Busi watched from the side, secretly alarmed.
He had originally prepared himself to fight Di Tian to the death, but he hadn't expected that this Black Dragon King, who even he had to be wary of.
Would actually show a kind of nearly equal politeness toward Lin Sheng?
"Auspicious Beast, time is up. We should head back."
Di Tian turned around, his tone becoming gentler, yet carrying an unquestionable majesty.
"Wuu..."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's magnificent large eyes were full of reluctance.
It rubbed against Lin Sheng's palm, letting out a whimpering sound from its throat. Lin Sheng crouched down, gently patted its golden head, and said softly.
"Go back, little fellow. I'll come to see you when I have the chance later. At that time, I'll definitely bring you more delicious food."
Hearing this.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes brightened, and only then did it obediently walk to Di Tian's side.
A spatial rift opened silently once more, and the two figures, one large and one small, instantly disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.
...
"Lin Sheng, being able to maintain this kind of relationship with Di Tian is a great thing."
Du Busi finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Then, he withdrew the Body Domain around him and looked at Lin Sheng with a complex expression.
"That fellow's strength is unfathomable. Even if I were to risk my life, I could at most not lose to him for a short period."
"However, the Power of Destiny you just obtained—I can sense it seems to be spontaneously nourishing your eye socket."
To be able to do this in front of Di Tian.
Stealing the Power of Destiny was something Du Busi wouldn't have even dared to imagine before!
Lin Sheng raised his hand to gently touch his sightless left eye and nodded: "Indeed."
"The Power of Destiny stands above ordinary Soul Power. Perhaps with the help of the Power of Destiny, there really is hope for recovery."
"I need to return to the Sect and enter seclusion for a period of time."
"Good! Let's go then!"
Du Busi laughed loudly, grabbed Lin Sheng by the shoulder, and his body turned into a dark green rainbow, speeding toward the direction of the Body Sect.
...
Not long after they left, by the Lake of Life in the core area of Star Dou Great Forest.
"Mhm..."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion lay unhappily by the shore, its gaze piercing through layers of mist to look into the distance. Di Tian sat on a stone bench nearby.
He was looking at this little ancestor with a bit of a headache.
"Di Tian, I want to go see the human World."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion suddenly spoke, her crisp voice carrying a firmness that had never been there before.
Di Tian was stunned, his face written all over with bewilderment.
"Auspicious Beast, what did you say?"
"The human World is full of deception. As the Soul of Star Dou, you must never leave the protection of this forest!"
"No, you don't understand."
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion turned her head, her golden fur shimmering with an extraordinary light under the moonlight.
"I just saw Lin Sheng's past. He is in so much pain... Aside from hatred, almost nothing is left in his heart. He is blaming himself, denying himself."
"He is clearly so strong, yet I feel he is even more pitiful than the weakest small beast in the forest."
Di Tian: "???"
No!
What the hell are you feeling sorry for?!
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion paused, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and heartache: "I want to go see the human World."
Di Tian fell into a deathly silence.
He looked at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's profile, which was filled with persistence, and only one sentence echoed in his heart...
This... how can this be allowed?
...
A few days later, Heavenly Soul Empire, Body Sect Headquarters.
The moment Lin Sheng stepped into the Main Hall with Du Busi, the originally lively atmosphere instantly cooled.
"Lin Sheng!"
Long Aotian was the first to greet him, but when he clearly saw the grayish-white, hollow, and lifeless pupil on the left side of Lin Sheng's face.
He felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
"What happened?! Who did this?!"
Long Aotian's roar shook the roof of the hall, sending dust flying.
Veins popped out on his forehead, and his usually steady aura was now as violent as an out-of-control beast. "Was it those bastards from the Holy Spirit Cult? I'll go kill them right now!"
"Below Spirit Emperor, I am invincible; above Spirit Emperor, I'll take them down with me!"
Princess Vina also followed closely behind.
She covered her lips, her originally spirited beautiful eyes instantly filling with tears as she said in a trembling voice: "Lin Sheng... your eye..."
Lin Sheng looked around at his concerned fellow disciples with a calm expression. He did not play up the tragic nature of that battle.
He simply briefly explained the cause and effect of using Izanami to cut off the Heart Demon.
"..."
After hearing the truth...
Long Aotian's rage was extinguished like a bucket of cold water, leaving only a heart full of bitterness and admiration.
He opened his mouth.
He wanted to offer comfort, but found that any words seemed pale in the face of such a heavy sacrifice.
"Aotian, Vina, I'm fine."
Lin Sheng softly interrupted everyone's grief.
"Although I've lost my sight, it hasn't damaged my Martial Soul. For the time being, I need to go into seclusion alone to digest the gift of the Power of Destiny and find a way to repair my left eye."
After speaking.
He declined everyone's company and, appearing somewhat lonely, slowly walked toward the Forbidden Land in the back mountain.
Du Busi, Long Aotian, and Vina watched that thin but upright figure under the setting sun.
"..."
Princess Vina's eyes were red, and her voice choked with a heartfelt pity!
"How old is he... revenge, cultivation, calculating... Lin Sheng is living such a tiring life."
Du Busi didn't speak.
He just silently clenched his fists. He knew that when Lin Sheng stepped out of that door again, perhaps the entire Douluo Continent would tremble under that youth's gaze.
"I believe Lin Sheng will pull through."
