Chapter 1385: Thousand-Eye Watcher
"Master, the aura and pressure coming from inside terrify me," Peng Tianlei spoke as she hugged her trembling body.
Ling Yun’s clone nodded in agreement with her. "I myself am terrified of them."
"The souls residing in this domain are the souls of mythical beasts that existed after Long Hun, so they are the true ancestors of the current ones." Ling Yun’s clone and Peng Tianlei turned to Xing Jiangjun in surprise. "In fact, some of them died in my hands, and Huang Lingzhu sent their souls here to protect Long Hun’s eyes."
"Why did you kill them, Senior?" Peng Tianle asked.
"They were too arrogant back then." Xing Jiangjun sighed heavily, remembering the events of the past. "Back then, they felt that they were much stronger than us, and they challenged us to a fight. I fought them and defeated them, but they were too foolish to think pride was everything, and they forced themselves to the point of burning their life essence. Even if I didn’t kill them, they would definitely die because of their stupidity, and I decided to kill them to honor their spirits."
Both Ling Yun’s clone and Peng Tianlei nodded in understanding, but then Zhe Shouhu spoke. "You must bring your real body here, as this clone is too weak, and you won’t be able to face those souls."
"Yeah." Ling Yun’s clone directly opened the Yin-Yang Chamber and disappeared into it, but his real body immediately replaced him. "Tianlei, you can enter now, and my clone will take you to the Thousand Beast Realm to help the others."
"But Master—"
"Do it." Peng Tianlei sighed softly and entered the chamber before Ling Yun closed it. He tried to examine the entire area of the domain, discovering that the location of the Primordial Chaos Dragon Eyes at the center was guarded by four red dots. "What kind of four beasts stand guard at the center?"
Both Xing Jiangjun and Zhe Shouhu checked the location immediately. "Shadow-Winged Manticore, Sky-Splitting Colossus Ape, Poison-Breath Basilisk, and Stone-Horn Behemoth. They’re powerful, but there are some that are even more powerful, like the Dark Phoenix."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun looked at them with a raised eyebrow. "Is there really the soul of the Dark Phoenix here?"
"Yes." Xing Jiangjun nodded at him. "In the past, there were hundreds of dark phoenixes, but Long Hun wiped them out. The dark phoenix soul in this domain was the last of her kin. I don’t understand why he didn’t send her soul into the cycle of reincarnation like the others, but Huang Lingzhu sent it here to guard his eyes. In addition to the dark phoenix, many other mythical beast souls are present here, but the five-clawed golden dragon is absent because it has reincarnated as Wang Jinlong."
Ling Yun nodded in understanding, and the Chaos Dragon Equipment enveloped his body. He then summoned the Chaos Dragon Broadsword. "Will you two follow me inside?"
"Yes." Xing Jiangjun and Zhe Shouhu nodded at him. "Huang Lingzhu ordered us to protect you from those fake immortals, and one of them should be hiding around this domain right now, so we have no choice but to accompany you inside."
"However, we won’t help you fight those beast souls, so you’ll have to figure out a way to defeat them yourself." Xing Jiangjun said.
"I know." Ling Yun led the two male immortals into the domain, and he transformed into his humanoid chaos dragon form, causing his beast aura to surge and spread throughout the domain.
All the beast souls in the Ancestral Burial Domain immediately sensed Ling Yun’s aura, and many of them quickly moved toward them.
Once they left, Bai Fa appeared at that location and seriously looked in the direction they disappeared. "My master ordered me to take the eyes of the Chaos Primordial Dragon, but I couldn’t possibly face those beast souls by myself. If Jin Fa were here, this task would be much easier, but our master ordered her to attack the Thousand Beast Realm.
Bai Fa let out a soft sigh and disappeared into a gate again, following Ling Yun and the two male immortals from inside.

They hadn’t even been inside for long, but they were already greeted by thousands of eyes hovering around them. Each eye radiated a different aura and element, but they ignored the two male immortals, focusing solely on Ling Yun because of his Primordial Chaos Dragon Aura.
"Thousand-Eye Watcher." Zhe Shouhu said.
Xing Jiangjun pushed Ling Yun forward. "Your first challenge has appeared; it’s time for you to get rid of it."
Before Ling Yun could analyze them, the thousands of eyes had already attacked him with various types of elements, forcing Xing Jiangjun and Zhe Shouhu to stay away from him.
However, Ling Yun immediately created void walls around himself and assumed a sword stance, holding the Chaos Dragon Broadsword with both hands. He looked at all those eyes one by one and channeled his void element into his broadsword. Additionally, he also used the Chaos Dragon Genesis, rendering their attacks useless. ’The old dragon said that I could use Chaos Dragon Rend with my elements, but he’s never shown it to me. I’ll try it now, and I hope it really works.’
’What will he do? Why didn’t he attack them right away?’ Xing Jiangjun and Zhe Shouhu wondered in their hearts when they saw Ling Yun just standing still in his spot.
The two male immortals didn’t notice that Ling Yun was using his aura to lock onto the position of those eyes, as he would rather not waste his time destroying them one by one. Instead, he wanted to destroy them all at once so they could continue their journey directly.
Once he was ready, Ling Yun immediately swung his broadsword not just once but several times in different directions. "Multiple Chaos Dragon Rend!"
*Swoosh... Swoosh...*
*Crack... Crack...*
Along with Ling Yun’s attacks, numerous cracks appeared in the air above them. Those eyes tried to counterattack, but their attacks were absorbed by the void, allowing his attacks to fly freely toward them.
Xing Jiangjun and Zhe Shouhu were stunned when they saw every eye that was hit by Ling Yun’s attacks immediately disappear into the void. "This kid can already use the void element to such an extent, huh?"
"Multiple Chaos Dragon Rend!" Ling Yun used the technique once again, especially since the number of eyes was too many, and they started to flee after many of them disappeared. "I won’t let you guys escape!"
Ling Yun suddenly remembered something, and he released all his soul. He merged them into one, with his devil soul as the core. In a few moments, his soul had become enormous, and its strength reached the godly soul level. "Devour them!"
Ling Yun’s devil soul excitedly flew around the area, capturing and devouring every eye it caught, making their number decrease rapidly.
"Has he gone mad? Why is he using these souls to feed his devil soul?" Xing Jiangjun asked with a frown.
Zhe Shouhu pointed at Ling Yun’s devil soul. "Can’t you sense that his soul no longer has any devil aura?"
"Hmm?" Xing Jiangjun raised an eyebrow and seriously observed Ling Yun’s devil soul. "You’re right! I forgot that he already broke all three prophecies, and Sheng Ming must have helped him to cleanse his devil soul, or else he has become a true devil now.
Zhe Shouhu nodded at him. "Sheng Ming may not be as strong as you, but her light element is top-notch, and no one can match her in such matters."
*Roar*
A loud, angry roar sounded from a distance. Ling Yun immediately looked in that direction, where a black snake with two wide, wing-like gills was snaking toward him.
"That’s a Black Abyss Leviathan, Ling Yun!" Xing Jiangjun shouted from a distance.
Ling Yun nodded in understanding and used the Nine Devil Dragons Technique, making nine black dragons appear behind him.
"Attack the beast soul!" The nine black dragons immediately opened their mouths and shot nine black balls at the Black Abyss Leviathan. At the same time, Ling Yun channeled his light element into his broadsword and used the Chaos Dragon Rend again. "Eat this!"
The Black Abyss Leviathan did not remain silent when it saw that, and it shot ten black balls. Nine of them collided with the nine dragons’ attacks directly, and the last one collided with Ling Yun’s attack, but it immediately disappeared due to his light element.
The Black Abyss Leviathan hurriedly flew around to avoid Ling Yun’s attack, but he immediately moved above it and created void walls to enclose it. He then used the Chaos Dragon Rend from very close range, splitting the beast soul into two.
Before the soul of the Black Abyss Leviathan disappeared, Ling Yun’s devil soul flew quickly towards them and devoured it directly.
"Blurp." After that, Ling Yun’s devil soul immediately chased those remaining eyes again.
On the other hand, Ling Yun looked into the distance as he sensed several gazes locking onto him, but he couldn’t locate the source. Just as he was thinking about that, several powerful attacks shot at him out of nowhere.
Ling Yun calmly used the Space Shuttle Steps to dodge those attacks, but they suddenly turned around and charged towards him again. He wanted to use the void wall to deflect them, but he canceled it as soon as he felt that one of them contained the void element. He immediately flew at high speed, but they trailed behind him. "What kind of beast can use such attacks?"
