The [Eye of the Soul], this Divine Artifact skill and Huang Yi’s Na Bestowing Skill [Instakill] have so similarities in effect, but there are significant differences in usage, targets, cooldown rules, consumption rules, and more.
The [Instakill] skill only works on players and is useless against NPCs, which is a major limitation. However, the [Eye of the Soul] can be used on NPCs, making it versatile for dealing with a variety of enemies.
The [Instakill] skill takes effect instantly with nearly a 100% success rate, while the [Eye of the Soul] requires a minute of gazing; if the target leaves the line of sight within this minute, it won’t take effect. This requires the Spirit Demon to ideally hide and observe secretly, without alerting the target, or find a way to forcibly keep the target within its sight range.
The [Instakill] skill has no consumption but has a 100-day cooldown period. In contrast, the [Eye of the Soul] has no cooldown ti but cos with an astonishing consumption—it requires consuming a Void God Soul each ti it’s activated. As long as there are enough Void God Souls, this skill can be used continuously.
Lately, the Spirit Demon has collected two Void God Souls in the Underworld, enabling him to use the Eye of the Soul twice now.
Ti ticked by second by second, with the Spirit Demon constantly looking up at the sky, the Eye of the Soul firmly locked onto Huang Yi, completely oblivious to the encroaching death.
Thirty seconds passed, and half of the Eye of the Soul’s gazing ti had elapsed.
High in the sky, Huang Yi suddenly felt a pang of apprehension.
His Perception Attribute was exceptionally strong, capable of vaguely sensing imminent danger, even causing goosebumps to rise on his skin. However, the Perception Attribute didn’t indicate the source of this danger.
"Strange! Why do I have this feeling?" Huang Yi murmured, turning his head to look around but noticing nothing unusual.
As the feeling of danger grew more intense, his Perception Attribute started to issue a clear warning. He decisively flapped the Wings of Protection, activating its effect to place himself in a 20-second invincible state.
With the Guardian aura providing a shareable guard effect, all nearby allies imdiately entered a 20-second invincible state, immune to any damage.
Yet, even with this, Huang Yi’s Perception Attribute continued to indicate danger’s presence.
The Eye of the Soul and the Instakill skill cannot be countered by survival skills, so Huang Yi’s activation of the Wings of Protection was ineffective here.
Making a swift decision, Huang Yi imdiately retrieved sothing from the storage ring—
It was an eyeball the size of a fist.
The mont the eyeball was taken out, it instantly beca the focus of the entire world, causing everyone to involuntarily turn their heads to look at it.
The eyeball was crystal clear, with a pupil like a Black Hole, deep and mysterious. Being watched by this eye, everyone felt a pang of apprehension, as if the gaze were tangible and burning them.
This was the Divine Artifact inherited by the Nagas from Nashash—the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye.
After Xue Huan took control of the Nagas, this Divine Artifact fell into his hands, and after Huang Yi killed Xue Huan, it ca into his possession.
Though not strong in combat, the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye had extraordinary auxiliary effects, allowing one to see things ordinary people couldn’t, even many abstract things.
For instance, right now, Huang Yi faced an unknown danger but couldn’t identify its source, which the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye could reveal.
Huang Yi tossed the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye into the air, where it spun rapidly, its pupil glancing in all directions, alert and nimble.
When the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye gazed toward a certain direction on the ground, a sudden burst of red light revealed the scene of a soul looking up at Huang Yi from ten thousand kiloters below.
At the sa ti, the Spirit Demon’s Eye of the Soul showed the image of the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye staring in its direction.
The Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye and the Eye of the Spirit Demon locked gazes at that mont.
This was a true "eye for an eye"!
"Huh? That’s... the Spirit Demon! Why is he staring at ?" Huang Yi wondered aloud.
In the next mont, a line of text appeared on the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye—
"Target is releasing skill: [Eye of the Soul]: Upon staring at the target for one minute, the target will die instantly... Counterasure: Simply avoiding its sight will break the skill."
The Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye unveiled the Eye of the Soul’s chanics and even provided a counterasure.
Huang Yi, ready to vanish from the Spirit Demon’s sight using Absolute Invisibility by flapping his Wings of Freedom, suddenly conceived a bold idea upon glancing at the crack made during the Divine Enthronent.
His eyes darted, and he chose to lower his Wings of Freedom, smiling, willingly exposing himself to the Spirit Demon’s gaze, and maintained eye contact through the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye.
Ti seed to freeze at that instant. The two arch-enemies, ten thousand kiloters apart, stared each other down through their respective eye-type Divine Artifacts.
Then, the Spirit Demon in the Sorrowful Spirit uttered sothing silently. Though Huang Yi couldn’t hear it, he could read the lips—
"Die!"
In that very instant, Huang Yi’s body shuddered violently, all vitality in his eyes fading to dullness.
His once Epic Hero aura vanished, leaving a lifeless corpse plumting from the sky.
He died.
Huang Yi was killed by the Spirit Demon using the Eye of the Soul!
Seeing Huang Yi’s transformation into a corpse shocked everyone.
Having just ascended to Epic Hero status, his unrivaled aura was suddenly snuffed out mysteriously!
"That eyeball just now showed the Spirit Demon’s silhouette!"
"The God of Slaughter must have sensed sothing earlier, hence activating the invincibility and then using that eyeball to scout, but it was a mont too late!"
"The Spirit Demon is formidable, managing to silently kill even the God of Slaughter!"
"Thankfully, the Underworld has already connected with The Second World, allowing the God of Slaughter to revive soon, so let’s keep attacking!"
After a brief discussion, they resud their focus, barraging the crack with relentless attacks, radiant lights shining fiercely but being swallowed by the Hell King’s Black Robe, unable to pierce through the darkness.
"Without the God of Slaughter, it’s even harder to breach the Hell King’s Black Robe! Let’s first track down the Spirit Demon and Heavenly Demon and eliminate them!" Dao Feng sheathed his Blade of the Sword Emperor, speaking coldly.
"I, too, agree with the Sword Emperor’s opinion. With the Spirit Demon and Heavenly Demon hiding in The Second World, we can’t concentrate on external threats; we must root them out first," the Thunder God nodded.
At this mont, the Giant Bear wiped his eyes, a sharp Divine Light flashing as he looked towards the previous direction of the Sorrowful Spirit of the Blue Sea’s Eye, saying, "With the God Hunter’s tracking eye, the Spirit Demon won’t escape!"
