Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Chapter 395 395: I Shall Break It With My Own Power

In his Sea of Consciousness, ten Divine Sense Stars shone brightly, like real stars, dazzling and splendid.

"I need to enter closed-door cultivation for a while. Please act as my protector," Su Han said, feeling that the moment for his breakthrough had arrived. He asked Tongyan to guard him, and she did not refuse, nodding in agreement.

Soon, Su Han sat down cross-legged and began to operate the Nine Heavens Eye Divine Method.

SWISH!

In his Sea of Consciousness, ten Divine Sense Stars lit up simultaneously. Ten streams of Divine Sense Power, like starlight, swiftly poured into the Nine Heavens Eye.

The Nine Heavens Eye was extremely mystical. Tongyan, despite being right beside him, could not perceive it in the slightest, even with her incredible Qi Observation Technique. The golden Nine Heavens Eye had three rings of mysterious runes encircling the pupil, making it appear even more mystical. At this moment, a fourth ring of mysterious runes was slowly being outlined, demanding a vast amount of Divine Sense Power.

After an entire day and night, Su Han finally completed his cultivation.

I've finally broken through successfully!

Su Han sighed with relief. A fourth ring of mysterious runes had been successfully etched within his Nine Heavens Eye. The Nine Heavens Eye had finally advanced to the Fourth Layer. The Nine Heavens Eye was a Divine Method, and every advancement brought about tremendous changes.

When Su Han opened his eyes, the Void crackled with electricity. The space in front of him began to distort slightly, shocking Tongyan.

What happened? Why is space distorting? Could it be due to light interference?

Since Tongyan could not see the Nine Heavens Eye, she was puzzled and had no idea what was happening. However, she never pried into Su Han's secrets, so she didn't ask.

With the Nine Heavens Eye at the Fourth Layer, Su Han's perception of the world was vastly different. Although he still couldn't completely ignore the light interference within Dragon Burial Valley, he could now perceive it. The world before him seemed filled with rays of ultraviolet light. By simply avoiding these rays, he could prevent the interference, which was critically important for him.

With my Nine Heavens Eye at the Fourth Layer, I'll have an even greater advantage in this Dragon Burial Valley!

Currently, many people were hunting him. Besides the One-Eyed Shark King and his two companions, there were surely others. At the same time, it wasn't easy for him to hunt Huang Shu, as the man was extremely cunning and had numerous escape techniques.

But with the Fourth-Layer Nine Heavens Eye, everything became much easier. Whether initiating an attack or temporarily concealing himself, he could seize the initiative.

"Su Han, I sense Huang Shu's Destiny!" Tongyan said. She had sensed it earlier but hadn't pursued him on her own because Su Han was in seclusion.

"This is definitely bait to lure us in," Su Han declared as he rose to his feet, his eyes flashing with insight, as if he could see through any scheme. "Huang Shu didn't go anywhere else but instead hid here in Dragon Burial Valley. Besides the danger, there must be another reason. Now his Destiny has reappeared, and it's almost too obvious. He's deliberately trying to lure us.

"I'm certain that a carefully woven trap lies ahead, just waiting for us to jump in."

The light of wisdom flickered in Su Han's eyes. Although young, thanks to the memories and inheritances he had received from many gods and demons, his sagacity and intelligence far surpassed those of ordinary people. He could even outmaneuver some of the old monsters.

Hearing Su Han's analysis, Tongyan nodded in agreement. Huang Shu's Destiny had been disrupted before, and its sudden reappearance indeed seemed intentional. Although she lacked Su Han's vast inherited memories, her high starting point gave her insight and perspective far beyond that of ordinary people, so she could also sense that something was amiss.

"So, should we pretend we didn't see it?" Tongyan asked.

Throughout their journey, she had witnessed Su Han's remarkable performance and held him in high regard. Now, she was willing to defer to his judgment, eager to see the full extent of his potential.

"No. We'll beat him at his own game and see what trump cards he's holding," Su Han said. "This man is full of tricks. Although not very strong, he's a lot of trouble. If we have a chance to eliminate him, we must prioritize it.

"Besides, since he has found helpers, they will just create another opportunity even if we don't go. Rather than being passive, we should take the initiative."

"Let him weave a thousand conspiracies and set ten thousand traps. I shall shatter them all with sheer power!"

A confident expression appeared on Su Han's face. His Nine Heavens Eye reaching the Fourth Layer gave him much more confidence. The fact that others were unaware of this ability was his greatest advantage.

Su Han's courage earned Tongyan's praise. This was the Su Han she most admired; a coward would be unworthy of her appreciation.

"Alright, if that's the case, let's go have a look. However, to avoid capsizing in a gutter, we must still be cautious."

Tongyan was never one to be timid. Since Su Han was confident, she was willing to face the challenge. Although she possessed the Qi Holy Body and astonishing Innate Luck, she never believed Destiny was everything. She much preferred to take the offensive and seize what she desired. Such a mindset was superior, unlike some so-called prodigies who relied too heavily on their Special Physique, leaving their Dao Heart fragile and vulnerable.

Having reached a consensus, Su Han and Tongyan immediately followed the clues leading to Huang Shu. This time, with his Nine Heavens Eye, Su Han could even see a faint trace of Huang Shu's Aura.

As the pair advanced, Huang Shu seemed to notice them and quickly fled into the distance.

Heh, what an actor. I'll just sit back and watch the show.

Su Han's expression remained neutral as he and Tongyan continued forward. He kept his Nine Heavens Eye active, seeing through the light interference and even spotting some hazy Resentful Dragon Remnant Souls and True Dragon Soul Remnants.

If this were before, Su Han would have devoured and refined them without a second thought. But now that his Nine Heavens Eye had broken through, reaching the Fifth Layer was still a distant goal, so he focused on pursuing Huang Shu.

Eventually, Su Han and Tongyan arrived at a low-lying area. Here, huge Dragon Bones were stacked all around, resembling a chaotic graveyard. Within this depression, more than a dozen Resentful Dragon Remnant Souls were intertwined, their resentful energy soaring to the sky, creating a scene so daunting that it deterred anyone from approaching.

The place was clearly a deathtrap that ordinary people wouldn't dare enter, but Huang Shu had deliberately chosen this location, clearly intending to use an overt plot.

"So, his trump card is the Resentful Dragon Remnant Souls?" Tongyan's gaze swept the area, using her Qi Observation Technique to lock onto a specific spot within the depression.

Su Han also sensed Huang Shu's location but remained outwardly calm. His Nine Heavens Eye scanned the area, and upon noticing an anomaly, he instantly understood the situation.

BOOM!

Su Han struck without warning. A Thunderbolt blade-light slashed through the air, heading straight for Huang Shu's concealed position.

Immediately, Huang Shu's figure was forced out. He glared at Su Han and Tongyan with hatred but showed no fear, clearly confident in his backing.

"Su Han, Tongyan, you've pursued me relentlessly! Today, I will make sure you die with no place to be buried!"
