Chapter 546: Chapter 546: Eye of Celestial Secret
The defenses of the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword had, at some unknown point, retracted on their own.
Ye Tianling had no idea if that scorching, incinerating power had manifested.
At this moment, it was as if all his Cultivation Techniques had melted into a single, pure wisp of Celestial Secret Power, undergoing a complete metamorphosis.
’Tianshu Ancient Town Celestial Secret Divine Technique... Celestial Secret, Inference, Time Origin Tracing...’
These mysterious forces seemed to swirl around the Chaos Destiny Scripture, forming a dark Chaos Cosmos.
Within this dark Chaos Cosmos, it actually simulated the changes in his current environment, mapping out the specific rules of Energy distribution within this Celestial Dao Rule Domain.
Ye Tianling felt as if he had a god’s-eye view, seeing the Earth Veins of this world and the flow of its rules.
It was as if Heaven and Earth were a unique living being, and Ye Tianling could now see the direction of its growth.
PFFT—
Suddenly, the process of growth came to a halt.
Ye Tianling spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes snapping open.
BOOM—
In that instant, it was as if the color of the entire world changed.
All color vanished from the world.
Only black and white remained.
Ye Tianling also discovered that his open eyes could only see a single, neutral field of vision.
’Hm? What is this?’
A strange feeling welled up within him. As it did, the world before his eyes suddenly shattered, and the black-and-white vision was replaced.
Ye Tianling shuddered for some unknown reason and came to his senses.
He opened his eyes again. This time, his vision was normal. The world before him was still the same golden desert.
The world even seemed more vibrant and colorful than before, but Ye Tianling had already reached a new understanding.
A profound memory awakened from the depths of Ye Tianling’s mind.
This memory came from the ancient Tianshu Ancient Town Celestial Secret Divine Technique.
The awakening of this Divine Technique’s legacy was like Ye Tianling had grasped an even more advanced, core Celestial Secret Technique from the Celestial Secret Divine Hall.
’Celestial Secret, Inference, Time Origin Tracing... So, the key is to open the Eye of Celestial Secret.’
’And the Eye of Celestial Secret is a true Dao Eye, one that can perceive the Qi Fortune of the world, destiny, and the fluctuations of Space-Time!’
’Only by possessing a true Eye of Celestial Secret can one be called a "Celestial Master"!’
’I never would have thought that the "Destiny" from the Chaos Destiny Scripture and the "Celestial Secret" from the Tianshu Ancient Town Celestial Secret Divine Technique are actually one and the same!’
’And to think, Time Origin Tracing is itself a Divine Technique of Inference, performed by tracking the changes in Time!’
’The changes derived from Inference are the changes of Heaven and Earth themselves. Countless variations occur at every moment. To perform Inference, you must create a World, evolve endless variations within it that match the current World, and then initiate a Simulation for deep calculation. And it just so happens that the Mechanical Heart can perform such incredibly complex computations! The Mechanical Heart, the core power hub of the Divine Hall of Destiny, was practically born for Celestial Secret Inference!’
’With this, I can practically determine life and death, and control the fates of others!’
...
Immersed in this understanding, Ye Tianling opened the Eye of Celestial Secret and completely merged the Chaos Destiny Scripture with the Tianshu Ancient Town Celestial Secret Divine Technique. In doing so, he took the true first step in mastering this legacy.
However, he still had not been able to comprehend what the Celestial Dao Rule Domain truly was.
Even so, after mastering the Eye of Celestial Secret, the environment of this scorching summer day no longer seemed so difficult to him.
’With this, I can actually... navigate by using true Inference. What the Celestial Dao Rule Domain is, that’s obviously not something I can grasp so easily. I can’t force that kind of comprehension.’
’But by using Inference to traverse the trials of this Secret Realm, I can more quickly and deeply comprehend the Ability of the Eye of Celestial Secret and grasp the true Celestial Secret Dao.’
Ye Tianling quickly figured this out. Without hesitation, he immediately reactivated the Eye of Celestial Secret and performed his first Inference.
In that instant, Time seemed to freeze.
At that moment, a dark Chaos Cosmos appeared within Ye Tianling’s Eye of Celestial Secret. Inside this Cosmos, his current reality manifested directly.
Both the beach and the desert appeared in this realistic environment.
But this scene, as soon as it appeared, quickly and inexplicably vanished.
No causality manifested.
Then, a dark, gloomy mountain forest appeared.
The forest was full of ancient trees, and leaves drifted down on the wind.
One leaf fell before his eyes, and Ye Tianling reached out on pure instinct to catch it.
HUMMM—
The next moment, Ye Tianling came to his senses, exiting the Eye of Celestial Secret’s Inference process.
He then discovered that a leaf had appeared in his hand.
A golden leaf, as if it had descended from some unknown world.
It was a leaf from an Enlightenment Tree—the same kind he had once seen on the Ancestral Tree Branches.
"What is this?"
Ye Tianling’s pupils contracted slightly.
’Why would a leaf I obtained during the Inference appear in reality?’
"No, this isn’t summer, it’s autumn! The real environment is autumn, and I’m in that forest!"
The truth suddenly dawned on Ye Tianling.
BOOM—
The moment he had this realization, the desert vanished completely. The distant beach and blazing sun disappeared as well.
The world was transformed into a field of golden-red.
The afterglow of the setting sun spilled across his hand.
He was surrounded by a thick carpet of fallen leaves.
And all around him, surrounding the fallen leaves, were Enlightenment Trees.
Ancient Enlightenment Trees, each one with a trunk as thick as a water basin, stood between Heaven and Earth. The sight was breathtaking!
Every single leaf of these ancient Enlightenment Trees provided a boost to one’s Enlightenment Dao ability and possessed a mysterious Divine Power.
Once, before the New World appeared, leaves from the Enlightenment Trees on Sword Ancestor Star could be activated to unleash enough power to slay a Saint Master or even a Divine Spirit.
And that power came from just a single withered branch, a single leaf!
But now, what Ye Tianling had before him was a vast, boundless forest—and every ancient tree was an Enlightenment Tree!
’Can I refine them?’
At that moment, Ye Tianling felt a surge of excitement.
But he restrained the frenzied temptation, suppressing the desire to use them in a Blood Sacrifice for the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword.
In a place like this, the greater his emotional turmoil, the easier it would be to fall into some unknown calamity, becoming trapped with no hope of escape.
Lost in thought, Ye Tianling carefully examined the leaf in his hand.
As Ye Tianling observed the leaf, it seemed to take on a divine quality. Gradually, it no longer looked like a leaf, but like a hand.
A woman’s hand.
A blood-stained hand.
In Ye Tianling’s eyes, the golden-red leaf seemed to be slowly coming to life.
