Fairyland Sunshine

Chapter 166 Sea Eye
Two days later, at Songtao Pavilion.

Xu Heng sat leisurely, holding a jade pendant in his hand. The vermilion color on the pendant had completely faded, turning completely transparent. The sunlight shone on it, but it seemed to pass through it as if it was nothing.

In fact, this thing was originally transparent. After Xu Heng's sacrifice and refinement, and after removing Dai Zhiling's mark, it returned to its original appearance.

At this point, you can leave your own mark in it, making it your own death-substitute weapon.

Xu Heng raised one hand and pressed one finger on the jade pendant. Without him making any movement, a drop of blood seeped out from his fingertips and dripped into the jade pendant.

In an instant, a hint of blood with a faint golden glow spread in the jade pendant, like a golden flame, burning the entire jade pendant. The jade pendant even trembled faintly, as if it would burst at any time.

Xu Heng raised his eyebrows slightly. The ritual method said that a certain amount of magic power and blood essence should be transformed into a brand and refined into the jade pendant, but it did not mention that such a strange phenomenon would occur.

"Is it because my magic power is too strong?" Xu Heng thought for a moment, "Yes, I'm afraid the power contained in the blood essence is also a major reason."

This is understandable. Even if a mere magical weapon has the ability to take the place of death, it cannot be too exaggerated.

Perhaps the person who was branded was too powerful, or the attack he endured exceeded the limit, and the jade pendant might not be able to withstand it.

Fortunately, after a while, the vibration of the jade pendant slowly weakened until it completely calmed down and turned into a golden red color, shining brightly under the sunlight.

"Good." Xu Heng nodded slightly and hung the jade pendant around his waist. He suddenly felt that his current appearance seemed to be gradually deviating from his previous style.

But he was not a person who cared about appearances. No matter how gorgeous or simple it was, it was just appearance after all. So he just smiled slightly and walked out of the pavilion, thinking, "It seems like it's time to leave."

He came to Songtao Island only to recover his magic power and cultivate his body and mind, and meeting Dai Xiangfei was an unexpected fate.

After a day and a night of meditation, his condition had returned to its peak. He only stayed one more day to refine the magic weapon. Now it was time to set off again.

Xu Heng glanced around and saw a figure on the mountain path. He just moved his lips slightly, then threw away his clothes and disappeared.

Dai Xiangfei was walking towards this place on the bluestone steps when he suddenly heard a sound. He was startled and looked up, only to see a ray of flame suddenly burst out in the sky. In a flash, it disappeared into the horizon.

……

The Eye of the East China Sea is bottomless and cannot be filled even with all the water in the world. According to legend, it is the place where all the waters in the universe converge and even the Milky Way in the sky flows into it.

Of course, this is just a legend, but it is recorded in Taoist books.

The Eye of the East China Sea is the 'lowest place' in this world. The 'low' here does not refer to 'high' or 'low' in the ordinary sense, but a mysterious meaning. Xu Heng understands it as 'position in space'.

Taoist books also say that all floating and sinking things in the void will eventually fall into the eye of the East China Sea, including some incomplete and even destroyed small worlds.

This is why, after the fall of Taishang Palace, some people believed that those immortal palaces wandering in the void would fall into the eye of the East China Sea, because without the great magic power to maintain them, falling to the "lowest place" was only a matter of time.

...After leaving Songtao Island, Xu Heng traveled quickly all the way. Within a few days, he flew like lightning and had already crossed the vast sea and sky.

That day, he suddenly heard the sound of rushing water, which was captured by his ear consciousness. His heart suddenly moved slightly, and he raised his sword to break through the atmosphere. In a flash, he flew out of the clouds, and saw clouds and steam surging, and water smoke floating -

It was like water pouring down from the sky, gathering in an endless stream and rumbling down into the bottomless hole, with no one knowing where it was going.

The East China Sea is a huge abyss with no bottom. Waters from the nine continents and four seas, as well as the streams from the sky, all flow into it! It really is true.

What is even more peculiar is that the eye of the East China Sea is filled but never full, and drained but never exhausted. Looking at the flow, even if the water in the world is vast, it will eventually flow away, but in reality, it neither increases nor decreases, as if it can last forever.

Such a magnificent scene truly demonstrates the wonders of nature's creation.

Xu Heng couldn't help but reveal admiration on his face. He glanced over and suddenly felt determined.

Suddenly, a brilliant light appeared in the bottomless hole. Dozens of fairy palaces rose up and floated, clouds were rising and the sky was bright. It seemed that they would break out of the sea eye at any time and the sky would reappear.

"Is this the immortal palace where the Tai Shang Palace collects the essence of the five elements?" Xu Heng glanced for a moment and counted that there were forty-six of them. It seemed that in less than a year, another immortal palace had appeared in the world.

As far as he knew, it had been less than eighteen years since the first immortal palace appeared in the world.

"It seems that it is indeed almost time." As he was thinking, his ear moved suddenly. Before he raised his head, he heard a loud bang, like the sound of thunder in a clay pot, and it was actually suppressing the sound of water pouring down from the sky, shaking the moving clouds apart!
Xu Heng looked up and saw a large iron boat far away on the sea. It seemed to have been cut into two pieces and was lying diagonally on the sea.

"The star ship across the vast sea?" Xu Heng's eyebrows moved slightly.

Xu Heng was not surprised that someone had arrived at the East China Sea Eye before him. In fact, just as Master Xuanxin said, the phenomenon of the birth of the immortal palace had lasted for so long that there must have been many people who were impatient or had plenty of time to spare.

When he arrived, he noticed with his peripheral vision that there were many cultivators in the nearby sea and air. He used sword skills to pierce through the air, which also attracted the attention of outsiders.

Perhaps it was because the word "sword cultivator" in the cultivation world had always been associated with murderous intent, so some of the magic weapons hanging in the air or floating on the sea seemed a little further away from him.

Xu Heng didn't care about it, but he was a little surprised that there was still trace of the Chaos Star Alliance in this area?

No, it may not be the Chaos Star Alliance... Xu Heng suddenly remembered that he had a Hengxing Hunhai boat in his hand, and his heart was moved.

He flicked his sleeves and his body turned into a flaming rainbow and rushed away. When he was close, he looked down and saw that the Hengxing Hunhai boat that had been cut into two parts had begun to sink into the sea and was even faintly dragged by the ocean current and drifted towards the eye of the sea.

On the sea, there were two men and a Taoist priest standing with their hands hanging down, their brows and eyes as solemn as water. When they noticed someone coming through the air with a sword, they immediately became furious and looked upwards together. The Taoist priest even put his hand on the wooden sword on his back.

But when the leader saw Xu Heng, he looked a little surprised: "Fellow Daoist Xu?"
