On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

The billowing smoke and dust slowly settled.

Ma choked up as he said, "Those two people were me and Ziyan. Isn't it ridiculous? Such a wicked person came from our clan. We grew up together, and in the end, he wiped out the entire clan with his own hands."

Even though so much time has passed, recalling it still makes me feel very sad and conflicted.

Ye Han was shocked by this truth.

There are actually ancient races in the universe, such as the Ancient Heng, whose strength automatically increases with age.

What shocked him even more was the actions of the Purple Eye, who slaughtered his entire clan just to surrender to the Galaxy Eye.

There was still one question he couldn't understand, so Ye Han asked, "Why did Purple Eyes do that?"

"I don't know what irresistible conditions the mastermind behind GalaxyEye gave her." Ma's voice turned cold.

"From a young age, she was someone who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals. She would get what she wanted, win every battle she wanted to win, and eliminate anyone who stood in her way. I just never imagined she could be so ruthless as to kill even her own people."

He sighed and looked at Ye Han: "If you want to be enemies with Galaxy Eyes in the future, Five-Colored Eyes won't be a big problem. I'll deal with Purple Eyes. Red Eyes is somewhat related to Merlin and isn't purely evil, so there might be room for maneuver in the future."

"The mastermind behind the Galaxy Eye, as far as I know, doesn't seem to be a living being. I've searched for many years but haven't found any concrete information about it. All I know is that all the managers of the Galaxy Eye refer to it as the mastermind. Where it came from, what its purpose is, and what form it takes are all unknown."

"Remember this, the real danger isn't those five-colored eyes. Once one is dealt with, a second one will immediately take their place. The real danger is the mastermind behind them."

Ye Han nodded and replied, "Understood, Master. I will be more careful when facing the Milky Way Eye in the future."

He appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was churning with considerable turmoil.

In Ye Han's mind, Galaxy Eyes was at most like Black Flag, belonging to an interstellar pirate group, while Five-Colored Eyes was top-tier combat power.

As it turns out, Five-Colored Eyes was merely a pawn on the surface; the true mastermind behind the organization was someone whose details even his master couldn't uncover after many years of investigation.

This reminded him of the original work he had read.

The original work only describes the Galaxy Eye as having five-colored eyes and a rainbow sea; as for the main brain, it has hardly ever appeared in a direct way.

The deeper something is hidden, the more dangerous it often is.

He temporarily suppressed these thoughts and instead thought of something else.

After the incident with Tianxue Star, he hadn't mentioned the details to his master yet, but now it was necessary to tell him.

Ye Han briefly recounted the events on Tianxue Star to Ma, including Zi Yan's awakening from the depths of Tianxue Star's ice layer, the disasters that had befallen Baixue's hometown for over thirty years, and the news that Zi Yan had returned to the Milky Way Eye.

"Purple Eyes is using the power of the Rainbow Stone to heal. She's done this before, hiding near the core of a planet and releasing toxins to modify the surrounding environment as a form of defense."

"The reason why Tianxue Star has remained like that for so long is because of what she unconsciously let go of. To her, the entire planet is nothing more than a cocoon for healing."

"This has happened before. Every time I hurt her, she would disappear for a while and then reappear after her injuries healed. The fact that she went back to Galaxy Eye this time means that her injuries have almost healed."

Well, now that I've recovered from all my injuries, it's time to put an end to this.

Ma didn't say the last thing.

The poison she left behind back then has now been completely eradicated, and her body has recovered to its peak condition.

But some things are harder to heal than physical injuries.

The two then returned to the planet Baji Star in their spaceship.

Ye Han looked at the silent starry river outside, his mind still processing all the information he had heard from his master that day.

Ancient Heng Clan, Shadow Clan, Purple Eyes, Mainframe... each piece of information is like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle that has been turned over.

This gave him a clearer understanding of the Galaxy Eye organization, but it also made him realize that what he knew before was just the tip of the iceberg.

Things are far more complicated than imagined.

Just then, a long-lost notification sound rang in his mind.

[Ding! System upgrade successful.]

[Energy Points: 18]

Ye Han quickly glanced at the panel and found that the interface had been greatly refined after this upgrade.

Each complete rune now has a progress bar, while incomplete runes continue to display the number of fragments collected and the unlocked abilities, making it easy to understand.

What caught his attention most was the change in the turntable.

It used to be a big roulette wheel where you gambled on luck. All the talisman fragments were mixed together and you could only draw whatever you got, it was all up to luck.

Now, twelve spinning wheels are lined up in a row, each corresponding to a talisman. You can choose whichever one you want to spin, and you no longer need to waste energy points on the random pool to try your luck.

Spin the wheel to get horse talismans if you want to replenish them, or spin the wheel to get dog talismans if you want to replenish them. It's precise and efficient, and every energy point is used effectively.

The spinning wheel for the complete talismans of rat, ox, rabbit, sheep, and pig is a little different from the others.

The wheel of incomplete talismans only yields fragments, which are used to complete the remaining quantity.

In the complete wheel, the prize draw no longer consists of the talismans themselves, but rather a progress bar.

From one to one hundred, once the progress bar is full, you can unlock the advanced abilities of that talisman.

Ye Han activated each of the upgraded talisman abilities.

Upgrade Spell:

Rat Talisman - Unique Avatar: Can create an independent entity with the host's maximum power level, granting absolute control.

Creation: Virtual constructs with fixed strength, unlimited in number, and the strength of each individual does not decrease as the number increases.

Ox Talisman - Synchronized Physical Fitness: As strength increases, so does physical fitness.

Tiger Talisman - ? ? ?

Rabbit Talisman - Speed-Breaking Time and Space: Speed ​​has no upper limit based on physical constitution; once a certain threshold is reached, one can travel through time and space.

Dragon Talisman—? ? ?

Snake Talisman—??

Horse Talisman - ? ? ?

Sheep Charm - Mental Pressure: Releases pressure to inflict mental damage on surrounding targets; targets below a certain threshold will lose their will to fight.

Soul Pull: Can awaken the dead souls around you.

Monkey Talisman—??

Chicken talisman—? ? ?

Dog charm—? ? ?

Pig Charm - Eye of the Hunter: Can brand any target, keeping the target in sight no matter where they are.

Once the target is locked, the laser eye will definitely hit.

[Note: Upgraded talismans grow with one's physical constitution, including their power, range, and efficiency.]

All the talismans received a huge boost, and the rabbit and ox had no upper limit in speed, strength, and physique.

If the speed is fast enough, it can travel through time and space.

This is completely beyond the scope of conventional speed-based abilities; it's like tearing a hole in the boundary of the laws of physics.

The Rat Talisman can also create an absolutely controlled clone with the same strength as the original body, multiplying its combat power.

The Sheep Talisman now possesses the added power of mental pressure and the ability to awaken souls; judging from the description, it's not impossible for it to resurrect the dead.

As for the Pig Talisman, the enhancement it received this time is incredibly valuable. As long as you brand the target, the laser eye will definitely hit, leaving no room for evasion.
