Chapter 818: Chapter 819: The Light of Great Calamity

With a gamble, Zhong Shan unleashed a terrifying blue beam from his Eye of Doom, targeting the Eye of Heaven.

The blue beam consumed nearly all of Zhong Shan\'s mental energy but fortunately did not deplete it entirely. Zhong Shan was curious about the full extent of the blue beam\'s power. Previously, just opening the Eye of Doom had halted the Western Sea\'s storms and calmed countless hurricanes, causing rules and principles to tremble. What would happen now with the blue beam?

Zhong Shan watched expectantly.

As the blue beam approached, the Eye of Heaven seemed to show a flicker of panic, sensing the blue beam\'s strangeness. But when the blue beam hit the Eye of Heaven, it appeared as if nothing had happened. It seemed like just an ordinary blue light, dissipating without effect—much ado about nothing.

The Eye of Heaven also showed a hint of confusion, followed by disdain.

Zhong Shan was stunned. Was that it? Did the blue beam have no effect at all? Consuming nearly all his mental energy for nothing?

Just as the Eye of Heaven was about to retaliate against Zhong Shan, he finally saw what he was hoping for. Staring at the sky, Zhong Shan\'s mouth gaped in astonishment. No way!

The Eye of Heaven, already scarred by the Heaven-Cleaving Axe of ancient divine power, had been partially healed over the years, though a small section still showed the crack. Zhong Shan could feel the residual \'breaking\' aura of the Heaven-Cleaving Axe, making it difficult for the Eye of Heaven to expel it.

What was the effect of Zhong Shan\'s blue Eye of Doom?

Suddenly, from the crack left by the Heaven-Cleaving Axe, a large amount of magma-like fluid began to flow out from the Eye of Heaven.

The Eye of Heaven was "oozing"!

Zhong Shan\'s face twitched.

At the same time, the Eye of Heaven showed a look of bewilderment, as if surprised by the sudden "oozing." The fluid increased, worsening the injury of the Eye of Heaven. The injury inexplicably worsened.

"Crack!"

The crack in the Eye of Heaven, originally left by the Heaven-Cleaving Axe, suddenly widened, infinitely worsening.

"Boom!"

The Eye of Heaven exploded with a violent force, causing another storm surge in the Western Sea.

The enormous crisis dissipated suddenly.

The Eye of Heaven had come with the intent to eradicate an unparalleled demon, bringing the absolute authority of the small thousand world. Yet, before it could unleash its might, it "oozed" and exploded?

Such a bizarre event—could it really be just a simple self-destruction?

The blue beam from Zhong Shan\'s Eye of Doom triggered this.

The destruction of the Eye of Heaven marked the potent capability of the Eye of Doom, revealing its potential to alter the fundamental nature of even the most formidable entities. The blue light was not merely an attack; it was a profound transformation force, capable of exacerbating weaknesses and flaws to catastrophic levels.

Zhong Shan\'s exhilaration grew as he comprehended the true power he now wielded. The Eye of Doom, with its capacity to perceive and exploit the deepest vulnerabilities, provided him with an unprecedented edge.

As the Western Sea calmed, the significance of the Eye of Doom\'s power became clear. It was not just about seeing through objects or influencing minor events; it was about reshaping fate and destiny, manipulating the very essence of existence.

Emerging from his confrontation with the Eye of Heaven, Zhong Shan felt a renewed sense of purpose. The unification of the realm was just the beginning. With the Eyes of Fate and Doom, he was poised to navigate the intricate interplay of fortune and calamity, guiding Great Zheng towards unparalleled dominance and stability.

With each step, Zhong Shan moved closer to mastering the profound mysteries of the Hongluan Heavenly Sutra, ready to face both mortal and celestial challenges head-on.

Zhong Shan realized the nature of the blue light—it was bad luck, misfortune, a curse. While others cultivate to bring good fortune and avoid calamity, the blue Eye of Doom imposed great misfortune on others.

When the blue light shone on someone, their fortune would drastically decline.

When the blue light hit, misfortune would follow.

When the blue light hit, one\'s luck would plummet.

This blue light was not an attack but the source of all disasters.

The Eye of Heaven initially suppressed the \'breaking\' aura left by the Heaven-Cleaving Axe, but when the blue light struck, misfortune took over, revealing the true extent of the calamity. The previously balanced suppression failed, and negative effects quickly overwhelmed it.

The Eye of Heaven suffered greatly!

Even if it represented the laws of the small thousand world and punished great evildoers, it couldn\'t escape the curse of the blue light. No one in the small thousand world had ever manipulated luck like this; the most they could do was leverage circumstances to bring good fortune and avoid calamity. Yet Zhong Shan\'s blue Eye of Doom forcibly imposed extreme misfortune.

Zhong Shan hadn\'t expected such a bizarre ability.

Misfortune? Omen? Disaster? The blue Eye of Doom emitted these twisted elements— the Light of Great Calamity!

Zhong Shan felt as if he were dreaming, but the Eye of Heaven\'s explosion, induced by the cursed light, was vivid in his memory. It truly exploded. No matter how powerful, once enveloped by the curse, negative influences would multiply infinitely, and a tragic fate would soon follow.

This ability was too perverse. With his mental energy nearly depleted, it would take at least six months to recover most of it, meaning he couldn\'t use the blue Eye of Doom again for that time.

For now, it would be his trump card. And for Zhong Shan, any trump card could be maximized to its fullest potential. The blue Eye of Doom? The Light of Great Calamity? Too twisted!

The Eyes of Fate and Doom: the right eye brought doom, the left eye brought fortune. The left eye, by analogy, must be related to the Light of Great Fortune.

This was only the eighth level. What would come next?

Zhong Shan closed his eyes, sitting in meditation for an hour to calm his excitement.

The vast world was different from the small thousand world. As Mr. Shi had mentioned, the vast world had countless strong individuals, various eye techniques, and extraordinary abilities.

Some could manipulate reincarnation, some could control space, some could master reality and illusion, and some could even manipulate time.

A vast, powerful world. Was he ready to face it?

Zhong Shan took a deep breath. The Eyes of Fate and Doom were powerful, but their true strength depended on how they were used. The vast world?—

Ten days later, Zhong Shan returned to the Lingxiao Heavenly Court. The Clay Bodhisattva came to see him.

"Your Majesty, I have a report!" the Clay Bodhisattva said respectfully.

"Oh?" Zhong Shan was slightly surprised.

"Although there is no precedent, I have made a prediction. There is bad news!" the Clay Bodhisattva said.

"Bad news?"

"Yes. The Yin-Yang Hall, set up with the Taiji Diagram to connect the two realms, may become useless after the Great Opening. When the Yin and Yang realms both enter the vast world, it may no longer be able to connect them," the Clay Bodhisattva said.

"Oh?"

"Moreover, the passage between the two realms may close after the Great Opening, separating them again. It\'s even possible that the location of the Yang Realm in the vast world may not correspond to the location of the Yin Realm in the vast world," the Clay Bodhisattva said solemnly.

Zhong Shan frowned as he pondered.

"If what you say is true, once the Great Opening occurs, the forces of Great Zheng in the Yin and Yang realms will be isolated from each other, losing all communication. One will be in the Yang Realm of the vast world and the other in the Yin Realm of the vast world, unable to find each other in the short term?" Zhong Shan\'s eyes narrowed.

"Yes!" The Clay Bodhisattva nodded with concern.

"Alright, I understand. You may go," Zhong Shan said.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After the Clay Bodhisattva left, Zhong Shan continued to think. The Great Opening—should Great Zheng merge its forces into one realm? No, he couldn\'t abandon the Yin Realm. The world is meant to be conquered; how could he give up on a whole realm? Then, his true body and shadow body would each conquer one realm.

Eighty years later, in the Lingxiao Heavenly Court, within Zhong Shan\'s training hall.

"Boom!"

"Crack, crack, crack!" The sound of bones realigning filled the air.

"Hah!" An excited shout echoed from the training hall.

He had done it—he reached the twelfth level of the Heaven Extreme Realm! Zhong Shan had relied on his own power to break through from the eleventh to the twelfth level of the Heaven Extreme Realm, achieving the pinnacle of mortal cultivation. His whole body felt unprecedentedly comfortable, as if brimming with power needing to be unleashed.

A hundred years—a hundred years of time, and Zhong Shan broke through the final barrier. Although a hundred years might seem short, given Zhong Shan\'s cultivation speed, it would make many blush with envy. After unifying the world, his cultivation speed had reached five hundred times the normal rate.

A hundred years of cultivation equated to forty to fifty thousand years for an ordinary person. Forty to fifty thousand years? This period could nurture ten generations of immortals!

After the initial excitement, Zhong Shan calmed down, rose, and walked out of the hall as usual, preparing to continue the court session.

Three days later, in the court.

Zhong Shan sat on the Nine-Dragon Heavenly Chair, looking at the ministers bowing before him.

"In another hundred years, Great Zheng will open the heavens!" Zhong Shan formally set the time.

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!" The ministers congratulated.

"Now, I will appoint some ministers who will enter the Yin Realm after the Great Opening," Zhong Shan announced.

Entering the Yin Realm? This meant some ministers would be assigned to the Yin Realm.

"Yes!" The ministers obeyed.

At this moment, an old eunuch stood at the holy steps and read the imperial decree from Zhong Shan:
