As the words fell, a figure hovering between illusion and reality appeared before everyone.
Purple hair, blood-red eyes, skin like beautiful jade, with garnts gracefully fluttering.
This person was handsoly shaped, with a natural arrogance between his eyebrows and eyes.
As soon as he appeared, the air inside seed to thicken, and the gravity seed to twist, making breathing and heartbeats feel significantly more difficult.
No introduction needed!
Almost everyone on site knew, this was Lin Qiubai, the Controller of Seven Vortex Sword Sect on Cangming Star, the Sword Master!
Almost all academy mbers had obtained the first half of the Seven Vortex Swordsmanship manual, so had begun to cultivate, so hadn’t yet touched it.
Yet everyone had an impression of this person.
While everyone was pondering over Ma Ran’s words just now, they heard a "boom", as a deep crimson, liquid-like fla rose in the palm of Song Chu.
Pillar Level Superpower [Blood Fla], a fire that burns all with blood as a dium!
"Monster, the right to draw the sword..."
At this mont, many were retrospectively drawing their own weapons, assuming combat readiness.
Everyone was warily looking at Peng Hanqing.
"Strange little thing."
Lin Qiubai’s voice was calm, looking at Peng Hanqing’s head humorously: "If you don’t act now, you’ll never need to act again."
Crack, crack!
A sound like shattering glass echoed in everyone’s ears.
A creature with a catfish-like head but an almost ape-like body suddenly appeared in everyone’s vision, jumping from Peng Hanqing’s neck.
Its body showed a flowing silvery white tallic sheen, as if it were coated with rcury.
The fish-like head had black recesses everywhere like eye sockets.
The stench of rotting food, accompanied by the salty sea breeze, instantly filled the room!
Song Chu was the first to launch an attack.
A liquid-like deep crimson fla blasted towards the creature nad "Eye-Stealing Monster".
Bang!
Sparks flew!
In an instant, the ground was burnt with a hole the size of a basketball.
The blaze continued to fiercely burn, scorching into the ground.
"Missed!"
Song Chu’s pupils contracted slightly, imdiately stopping: "So fast!"
"Can’t keep up at all!"
Unable to ensure the attack hit, acting recklessly in this situation would only harm the companions in the room.
In the next mont.
Between the Eye-Stealing Monster’s catfish head and ape-like body, dozens of tentacle-like appendages suddenly extended.
The speed of these tentacles almost exceeded the limit of human dynamic vision.
In a blink!
Dozens of tentacles left trails in the air, crossing space, suddenly pressing against the eyes of the academy mbers.
Cold, slippery, the nauseating sll hitting the face, almost made soone faint.
Eyes...
Were about to be gouged out!
The academy mbers who had never been on the battlefield, at this mont, had minds blank with bodies unable to react accurately.
Su Qiangwei instinctively clenched her fists, just about to save people, her peripheral vision caught the always calm Ma Ran, her brow raised, she slowly unclenched her fists.
At the sa ti, in the blink of an eye!
As the Eye-Stealing Monster was about to gouge out the eyes of the "first batch of lucky ones", Lin Qiubai flicked his fingers.
Swish!
A deep blue sword light flashed!
The wind howled!
Ti seed to still at that mont.
A second later, the Eye-Stealing Monster’s body split into two, slowly cracking into halves!
Its carcass fell to the ground, with pitch-black, viscous, tar-like blood slowly spreading out.
So showed a look of lingering fear, sitting paralyzed on the ground, others stood stiffly, trembling.
Song Chu looked at Lin Qiubai: "This monster... is dead?"
"Still alive."
After giving this response, Lin Qiubai walked straight out of the room.
He lifted his head, looking up at the starry sky.
Called a starry sky, yet only a few dimly stubborn stars shone.
There was a thin layer of mist in the sky, like hazy gauze, even veiling the moonlight.
As his front foot stepped out, Ma Ran imdiately followed.
Zhu Hanyi, Su Qiangwei, Wan Haihao, Song Chu, and others followed closely.
The victims, who were previously trapped in fear, imdiately followed suit upon seeing the situation.
Just now, Lin Qiubai flicked his finger and instantly killed the Eye-Stealing Monster, then said the creature was still alive!
Are they leaving the room to eliminate the threat entirely?
No one wanted to stay alone in that room just now.
What if the Eye-Stealing Monster ambushed them again?
Its invisibility ability is absolutely terrifying!
It remained hidden on Peng Hanqing from Zhiyuan Academy for who knows how many months, yet was never discovered!
Did Peng Hanqing never feel the weight or pressure on his neck while carrying such a creature?
It’s horrifying to think about!
The more one thinks about this matter, the more terrifying it becos!
At this mont, choosing to stay alone indoors out of fear would be the most foolish way to court death!
Even though their hearts were still racing and their legs trembling, the mbers who almost had their eyes taken out still shakily left the room.
Their breathing was rapid, almost to the point of hyperventilation, leading to symptoms of respiratory alkalosis as the carbon dioxide levels in their blood beca too low.
Lin Qiubai walked at a leisurely pace, akin to an ancient nobleman on a countryside excursion, showing no sign of pursuing a vicious outer star creature.
In the night, an imnse, boundless silver vortex slowly appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Within this vortex were thousands of eyes of various colors, seemingly not just from Earth humans.
Twisted!
Chaotic!
Stretching for miles!
Just one glance would leave one’s head spinning.
Everyone who saw it almost felt a sea-like scent spreading between their nostrils, as if their sense of sight and sll temporarily interconnected because of it.
"This is the true form of the Eye-Stealing Monster..."
Peng Hanqing was the most emotionally stirred on the scene.
He looked up at the sky with a tone that was almost dreamlike, saying, "So terrifying!"
Before today, Peng Hanqing couldn’t even imagine it!
Such a creature that doesn’t even need a body to survive had stayed on him for several months.
And he, completely unaware!
The Eye-Stealing Monster’s invisibility thods were too advanced.
It could freely shroud its own sll, weight, appearance, texture, temperature...
The more one thought, the more fearso it seed.
Anger helped Peng Hanqing surpass this fear.
If possible, he wished to tear the creature apart.
Not only to avenge his teachers and classmates, but also to overco his inner demons.
Since that bloody night class, he hadn’t had a good night’s sleep, almost waking every early morning from nightmares.
Yet, he understood deep down.
The true form of the Eye-Stealing Monster floating in the air—he couldn’t even touch it, let alone kill it.
Even if he could touch it, he’d only be sending himself to his doom.
Peng Hanqing could only pin all his hopes on the Seven Vortex Sword Master he t for the first ti.
"Don’t let this guy escape!"
"Sword Master..."
"If it’s you..."
"You can definitely do it, right?"
As if hearing Peng Hanqing’s inner thoughts, Lin Qiubai slowly opened his right hand.
Countless pale blue luminescent particles gradually gathered in his palm.
Under the night sky, the luminescent particles slowly condensed into a Spirit Sword emitting divine light.
Above the sky, the peculiar vortex ford by the Eye-Stealing Monster emitted a roaring sound.
Strangely, with just a roar, one could hear emotions of anger, malice, and hatred.
"Is this your final words?"
Lin Qiubai’s gaze was calm as he casually swung his sword skyward, "Pathetic and shortsighted creature."
Swish!
Instantly, a blue Sword Aura filled the heavens and earth, illuminating the whole Xiao Xiang night sky!
In the sky, it was as if a bright blue crescent moon was gradually rising.
The silver vortex packed with countless eyeballs—the "true form" of the Eye-Stealing Monster, an outer star creature—was utterly torn apart by the extrely sharp Sword Aura and slowly dispersed into nothingness.
Lin Qiubai spoke confidently, "This ti, it’s truly dead."
At the sa ti, the Spirit Sword in his hand gradually fainted and disappeared.
Standing behind Lin Qiubai, Wan Haihao narrowed his eyes slightly, his mind flooded with countless thoughts.
"The blue Sword Light."
"Compared to when he was at Grass Hut Academy, the color is different..."
