Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Ling Feng, his gaze a bit dazed, was just dumbly holding Tuoba Yan’s corpse, sitting on the ground.

He felt that his eyes seemed about to be scorched, and the vertical pupil on his forehead was hot like magma. The intense pain, along with the melancholy in his heart, nearly turned him into a walking dead.

”Hmph, don’t you want revenge?”

The old man in the black robe slowly descended before Ling Feng, his face still adorned with the gruesome ghost mask.

”Perhaps you’re unaware, but all of this was orchestrated by me. It was I who instructed Lin Canglang to kill Lin Xian’er, and it was I who threw out Tuoba Yan! Keh keh keh!”

The old man in the black robe seemed to be narrating some kind of glorious feat, his voice filled with a mocking laugh.

”It was you!!!”

Ling Feng slowly raised his head, both eyes—or rather, all three pupils—burning with the flames of anger.

”Yes, it was me!”

The old man in the black robe laughed sinisterly, ”How does it feel? Not very pleasant, right!”

”Why! Why! Why!”

Ling Feng suddenly stood up, anger and sorrow causing his eyes to almost crack with rage! His originally handsome face became hideously twisted!

Wham!

Ling Feng, like a furious lion, charged fiercely at the old man in black, but was kicked away and stomped heavily underfoot.

”Pfft!”

Ling Feng spat out a mouthful of blood; anger made him oblivious to pain. Shura Power flooded his body, and somehow, he managed to force the old man in black to retreat.

”I will kill you!”

Ling Feng pulled out the Ten Directions Annihilation, directly wielding the Heavenly Punishment Sword Technique, fiercely attacking the old man in black.

Unfortunately, the absolute disparity in strength led to Ling Feng being mercilessly crushed and trampled!

In just three moves, Ling Feng was once again stomped underfoot.

The old man in black laughed wildly, ”What’s the matter? Is this all you’ve got? Huh? Is this all the Eye of Heaven can do?”

Anger caused Ling Feng to erupt again; time after time he climbed up, only to be knocked down and trampled.

Yet, the old man in black never delivered a fatal blow, seemingly waiting for something.

”Ah!”

Ling Feng’s whole body was bruised and battered; he continued to spit blood, yet compared to his physical pain, the burning sensation in his three eyes became even more unbearable.

He felt as if he were situated in purgatory magma, every inch of his skin and flesh being roasted by flames.

The pain almost made his soul tremble.

And the more painful it was, the stronger his strength seemed to become!

”Kill! Kill! Kill!”

Ling Feng once again lunged at the old man in black, and this time, he indeed shook the old man.

Perhaps Ling Feng’s strength had increased, or maybe the old man in black suddenly appeared very weak.

He stabbed his sword into the old man’s chest, not expecting that he actually succeeded.

The cold blade pierced directly through the old man’s chest.

A look of bewilderment flashed through the old man’s eyes, but immediately after, a hint of relief, and even a bit of kindness emerged.

”Ugh!!——”

The intense pain made Ling Feng’s whole body tremble; he desperately pressed his eyes shut, gritted his teeth hard, and grabbed the ghost mask of the old man in black with his other hand.

”I want to see who you really are and why—why you did this to me!”

Ling Feng fiercely tore off the ghost mask, but the next moment, it was as if his mind exploded.

That face was more familiar to him than anyone else.

The first eighteen years of his life, he had followed this old man, traveling around and practicing medicine.

This was an incredibly ordinary old man, also an incredibly kind one, who had given him countless warmth and was his only family during his youth.

”Grand... Grandpa!”

Ling Feng looked at the face in disbelief. Initially, Ling Kun had taken him to the Wenxian Sect to practice martial arts, and then disappeared.

He had once tried to find him, only to receive a single word ”run,” after which Ling Kun vanished without a trace. He never expected that their reunion would be in such a scene.

(PS: See ”Chapter 101, Revisiting the Old Places” for explanation; it was mentioned before that Ling Kun was the servant of Ling Feng’s biological grandfather, but had always hidden Ling Feng’s true identity before the awakening of Ling Feng’s Emperor’s Eye, so Ling Feng believed Ling Kun was his real grandfather, resulting in two grandfathers appearing in this scene.)

”Why? Why is it you?”

Ka-cha!

Ling Feng’s heart seemed to crack again, and the fissure nearly shredded his entire heart.

Tears slid down Ling Feng’s cheeks, dripping as scarlet lines.

They were blood-tears!

Hualaalaala!

In the sky, dark clouds rolled, thunder roared, and then a torrential rain poured down, yet the raindrops were blood-red!

The sky cried blood; Cangtian wept!

”Ah!!!”

Ling Feng desperately pressed his eyes; he felt his eyes about to ignite. Everything in front of him grew increasingly blurry, as if he had returned to the very beginning, when he was blind.

”Feng’er, the moment you awakened the Emperor’s Eye, everything became inevitable.”

Ling Kun coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, unnoticed that the Yin Yang Fish in his eyes had quietly disappeared.

Perhaps, the reason Ling Kun left Ling Feng the word ”escape” back then was not to flee from some formidable entity but to escape the destiny as part of the Heavenly Dao Clan.

”Child, don’t blame Grandpa; the Emperor’s Eye must endure extreme pain to further evolve, and this is all a catalyst for your Emperor’s Eye to evolve further. You... ugh!”

Ling Kun suddenly spat a mouthful of blood and raised his blood-soaked hand to gently touch the back of Ling Feng’s head. At this moment, he seemed just like the originally kind old man, but also a pitiable elder.

Ling Feng desperately pressed his eyes shut; he continued shedding blood-tears, the pain in his heart, body, and soul nearly driving him mad.

”Why, such evolution—I would rather not have! Grandpa, Grandpa, don’t die!”

Ling Feng cried loudly, wanting to heal Ling Kun, but the pain from his eyes made it impossible to concentrate. Moreover, he felt the world before him was a crimson blur; he could hardly see anything.

Moreover, he clearly sensed that Ling Kun’s body seemed just like an ordinary mortal, wholly unlike the formidable entity who could have crushed him.

Weakly, Ling Kun said: ”Feng’er, you need not worry; Grandpa’s death at your hands to awaken the perfect Golden Eye of Heaven has value!”

”Master, my task is finally complete!”

Ling Kun showed a relieved smile, glanced at Ling Feng with his remaining strength, and timidly uttered, ”Child, I’m sorry!”

Then, the kind elder finally breathed his last.

”No! Grandpa!——”

As Ling Kun’s vitality vanished utterly, Ling Feng’s eyes finally burst forth with magnificent golden light.

Under the extreme torment, Ling Feng’s Eye of Heaven finally evolved into the truly perfect, Golden Emperor’s Eye!

(PS: Honestly, this part is a bit tragic, though there were hints in the previous text. There’s one more thing: just because they died here doesn’t necessarily mean they’re permanently dead, so don’t be too upset!

Furthermore, tomorrow’s update will reveal Ling Feng’s parental circumstances!)
