When Chen Chu first entered Martial High, he spent half a month completing foundation establishment to learn true martial. He chose the intermediate techniques, the dragon elephant skill and the mind's eye bright blade.
Among these, the mind's eye bright blade was quite special. Its power could only be considered average among intermediate techniques, but once one cultivated the mind's eye, its power exceeded that of high-level blade techniques. Relying on the mind's eye, Chen Chu, who was only at the cultivation level of double heaven, was able to traverse the battlefield beneath Keluoya, defeating high-level cultivators.
He could predict ambushes, snipe enemies, and accurately locate Cultists of the Evil God, completing the first wave of resource accumulation efficiently. Later on, the mind's eye bright blade reached its peak under the enhancement of attribute points, detaching the mind's eye from the blade technique, transforming into the void-slaying rune.
With Chen Chu's repeated breakthroughs in strength, it evolved into a special divine ability, allowing him to sense all visions, intuitively foreseeing danger, and ultimately peering into the past. Now, as Chen Chu stepped into the primordial realm and mastered the condensation of the source of time and space in the fifth heaven realm, his mind's eye became even more powerful under the enhancement of time and space.
Using himself as a reference point, a silver-white eye in the center of Chen Chu's forehead radiated dazzling light, and countless visions of “his own” life flashed before his eyes.
The future was always in the future. Every person's next second could change due to a sudden thought, continuing to extend into the next second, infinitely. This coincided with the Daoist theory from blue star that life begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things.
Therefore, even eternal-level existences that jump out of chaotic time and space cannot grasp their own future, as their futures change significantly every moment. Moreover, because of 'transcendence', with time and space leaving no trace, they cannot perceive themselves either.
Years ago, Heng was able to see a fleeting moment of Chen Chu in a future fragment, witnessing Chen Chu participating in the battle against two other eternal mighty beings. This was due to their bond.
The ancient civilization and the Human Federation, Chen Chu obtained the legacy from the Void Ruins Continent. Thus, to avoid interfering with the future and creating unpredictable variables, Heng did not reach out to help Chen Chu enhance his strength beforehand, instead placing him many tens of years away from the mythical world, maximizing the possibility of not affecting Chen Chu's early growth.
He sat in the Chaos Sea for ten years, and gradually, a serious expression appeared on Chen Chu's majestic and indifferent face.
In these ten years, he saw countless fragments of his future, but all of these futures came to a halt one hundred fifty years later, with time flow converted to the mythical world, approximately three years.
This made Chen Chu feel somewhat solemn and respectful; his future was stuck at one hundred fifty years later, originating from over one hundred eighty million possible future outcomes of one hundred fifty years.
No matter which future it was, it all ended at one hundred fifty years later, indicating that either he completely fell without leaving a trace, in which case he naturally would not have a future, or he had already become eternal, transcending endless time and space, leaving no trace, and thus Chen Chu could not see it.
It seemed that the future could only be limited to within one hundred fifty years. Chen Chu's gaze slightly sharpened, and the silver eye in his forehead suddenly erupted with dazzling light.
Boom! In the flow-light tunnel composed of countless future fragments, a beam of light resembling a silver eye flashed, extending toward the future.
In one of the future fragments within the flow-light tunnel, a terrifying black-red beast stood in the void of the universe and suddenly raised its head, roaring toward the sky.
