This has co from the Sky Wish Sect twice in a row;
clearly, the Black Mark has shifted its target.
Regardless, Yu Hong still has considerable trust in the quality assurance of the Black Mark.
Right away, he began practicing the Eagle Eye Training thod while listening to Chen Yaofeng’s incessant nagging. After completing a cycle, he opened the bottle of Eye Drops and put a drop into his eyes.
Hiss!
In an instant, the mont the Eye Drops made contact with his eyes, Yu Hong felt as if his entire eyeball had been imrsed in the cool comfort of an expansive lake.
Within the lake, a silver-white dragon-like creature swam quietly, approaching from afar, swiftly passing by him.
Hiss!
A slight white light emanated from Yu Hong’s eyes.
"Yu Hong, what’s going on with your eyes??" Chen Yaofeng had been talking about how he had been overworking recently, to the point where even Dao Breath couldn’t relieve his ntal and physical stress, so he ended up marrying four wives in one go to relax.
Then, in the blink of an eye, he saw Yu Hong sitting in the chair, his eyes inexplicably starting to glow.
"It’s nothing, just practicing a Magic Skill for the eyes," Yu Hong casually replied.
"Is it that kind that can be popularized?"
"I’m afraid not, it takes too long." Yu Hong shook his head. "It takes at least ten years to master."
"Then never mind."
While speaking, Yu Hong slowly opened his eyes and suddenly felt that the whole field of vision in front of him had changed from before.
The clarity was much higher than before.
Most importantly, he glanced through the car window to the outside.
The black fog still spread far and wide, but compared to before, he could now see at least a hundred ters out.
’Is the effect this good?’ Yu Hong was surprised and closed his eyes again, then reopened them.
He then continued practicing the Eagle Eye Training thod. Whenever he felt tired, he would imdiately put a drop of Eye Drops in his eyes.
Half an hour later, the camp arrived.
Yu Hong got up from his seat and stretched his back. He looked up again and dropped another Eye Drop into his eyes.
A few seconds later.
A stream of feedback suddenly flowed from the Black Mark on the back of his hand.
’Eagle Eye Training thod has reached its peak, trait acquired: Eagle Eye.’
’Eagle Eye: Increases the range of vision to a certain extent, effective for observing in low light and at long distances.’
’This might be the fastest trait I’ve ever acquired....’ Yu Hong felt the brightness in his eyes had noticeably improved, filled with so emotion.
’Then, moving on.’
While helping with the Black Light Army’s transportation, he took out pen and paper to draft the Eye Power Training thod. This ti, after experintal verification affird that this thod was effective.
He decided to significantly add to the foundation of the Eagle Eye Training thod by integrating a variety of Eye Power Training thods.
Whether useful or not, just pack them in first.
It’s about achieving completeness, right? He simply loaded up a bunch of Training thods;
inevitably, a few would produce the desired effect, and enhancent would naturally sift through and strengthen them later.
’Enhance.’ Yu Hong placed a hand on the paper and thought a mont, "Direction: Enhancent of functions in response to the Black Disaster."
He planned to try again.
But the next second, the feedback from the Black Mark made him realize that shortcuts weren’t so easily found.
’Basic function missing, unable to enhance.’
’Then let it be random enhancent.’ Yu Hong sighed and thought again.
This ti, without a specified direction, the Black Mark normally began the countdown for enhancent.
It just absorbed a bit more of his Tai Ling Skill Inner Strength than the last ti.
The crimson countdown quickly appeared on the newly written paper.
’3 hours 11 minutes.’
’This ti it’s longer.’ Yu Hong slowly began to feel a sense of anticipation.
Continuously enhancing Cultivation Techniques and then using potions to aid and expedite Cultivation, the eyes would eventually undergo a true transformation.
Perhaps through this thod, the Black Mark’s enhancent could quickly explore if there’s a limit.
Initially, he had considered directly enhancing a special drug that would fortify the eyes, but there was no such drug as a foundation in reality, and compared to direct drug enhancent, Cultivation Techniques are easier to control in terms of detail and progress, and they allow for an adaptation process that’s in harmony and coexistence with the whole body.
After all, if a single organ is too strong or changes too dramatically, various incompatibilities with the body could arise.
Gradually cultivating with Cultivation Techniques and allowing for longer adaptation tis, of course, if one could later enhance a potion that alters over a longer duration, it could have the sa effect. That would be sothing to explore in the future.
"Master Yu, what kind of place is the New World, exactly?" During the last transport of the day, Chen Yaofeng voluntarily followed onto the Black Ship and stood on the deck, looking forward to the dark river ahead, and asked.
"A place that is about to experience the Source Disaster as well, but it doesn’t matter." Yu Hong said calmly, "This ti, I will eliminate all unforeseen incidents. No one can stop us from establishing a ho of our own."
"I believe in you." Chen Yaofeng nodded, "Our power is now stronger than ever before. Nothing can stop us. But what about the native dwellers? How will we deal with them?"
"They will understand. As human beings, now that they’re helping us, we will repay them in the future." Yu Hong said indifferently. "After all, we’re not enemies. In the face of the Source Disaster, we are all the sa—helpless beings struggling to survive."

North of Mana City, Mozanna City.
In a desolate street, inside a café nad ’Cold Stone.’
Phils stood up from his table, tiredly rubbing his face, trying to rejuvenate himself a bit.
But his heavy dark circles and drooping eye bags indicated that his condition was very poor.
Rustle.
The brown wooden chair opposite him was pulled out, and a large black man with a full beard, dressed in a black suit, his face equally tired, sat down.
"I’m sorry for Tam’s death," the black man said in a deep voice.
"Rekus, why are you here? You must be busy with lots of tasks after being promoted to Deputy Director, right?" Phils asked in a low voice.
"It’s Deputy Bureau Chief," Rekus corrected.
"Sorry, I always confuse the difference between you and the National Security Departnt," Phils said with a wry smile.
"Rember the distinction from now on." Rekus didn’t imdiately reply but just gestured for the waiter to co and take the order.
After ordering an iced black coffee, he too rubbed his temples with his fingers, frowning.
"Are you still busy with Huailin ntal Hospital? We can’t spare any personnel for the mont, so we had to leave it to the Church to deal with."
"Yeah," Phils smiled bitterly again. "Father Tam didn’t even make it inside the door before he went to et God. We’ve only dared to hover around the edges and seek opportunities to probe for so inconsequential intelligence."
"You’re the most suitable for this job. Anyone else would have died countless tis already," Rekus said.
"But I’m still hitting a wall. Huailin’s malevolence is growing stronger, but we can only stay outside, unable to get in. The Church has suffered hundreds of casualties and is still just circling the periphery," Phils explained.
He looked at his friend, whose fatigued face and haggard appearance made him unable to refrain from asking.
"What about you? I heard you were busy with that suddenly ergent Spirit Alliance?"
"Mmh, it’s tricky," Rekus sighed, "The Spirit Alliance’s strength is formidable. At first, we thought it was just common marketing. But slowly, over these days, we’ve discovered that the organization’s expansion speed is alarmingly fast, and there are many experts among them! It’s a terrifying and colossal entity, unfathomably deep."
"The situation here is the sa, with little progress in exploration, making it impossible to approach. That ntal hospital is even devouring inspirers as materials," Phils said helplessly.
"There must be soone behind this orchestrating events. I rember the sa figures cropping up in the last two incidents, right?" Rekus said.
"We suspect that it might be Elza Blood Ability creating trouble, but we haven’t found any proof," Phils nodded.
A mont of silence fell between the two.
Soon their coffee arrived, and they sipped it slowly.
"Actually, you should co help ," Phils couldn’t resist saying.
"If we’re short-handed here, it affects tens of millions of people. The Spirit Alliance’s expansion speed is too fast, and although for now, we can’t see what use their expansion serves, but..."
"If I can’t handle the situation here properly, several surrounding cities might just as easily be engulfed, with tens of millions easily consud," said Rekus, expressionless.
"I’ve already requested approval for the Spirit Exploring Association;
the initial personnel draft comprises five people," Phils said.
"The core mbers are five?"
"Mhm. There’s no limit on the number of people on the periphery;
I have their records. These five’s spiritual abilities can play a significant role in our future confrontational investigations," Phils answered.
"When you’re done over there, can I borrow them?"
"If it’s really handled, of course there’s no problem... It’s just..." Phils smiled wryly. "I reckon that even if you resolve it there, I still won’t be able to handle things on my side."
"No way... you don’t understand the monster organization we’re dealing with right now," Rekus sighed. "Compared to there, Huailin at least doesn’t spread around freely, much less stressful, but this side really is..."
"You’re the one who doesn’t understand the gravity of the situation here," Phils retorted. "What you’re dealing with is just a human-made disaster, but if a real outbreak occurs here, we truly have no recourse but to wait for death! You haven’t experienced that kind of despair, you simply don’t have a clue..."
"You..." Rekus was about to say more but suddenly recalled the confidentiality regulations and the terrifying extent of the Spirit Alliance. Without having truly encountered it firsthand, one could not understand, so he sighed again.
"Forget it, when everything’s over, I’ll let you see the docunts, then you’ll understand. I’m aware of the situation in Huailin, but you don’t understand the gravity of the situation here..."
"It’s always like this with you, always thinking that only the difficulties you encounter are the most challenging, and only your troubles are actual troubles, while others are just trivial matters..." Phils was speechless. "You think the intelligence you’ve seen is everything? Let tell you the truth, we’ve uncovered a clue that there’s the shadow of the Blood Energy Group behind this. They are researching a certain special virus and have also conducted a large number of illegal human experints! It’s tied up with too much."
"The two situations aren’t on the sa level;
you don’t understand so of the things I’m facing, let’s talk about this later." Rekus finished his coffee in one gulp, then stood up.
"Alright, I need to work too. See you next month. That’s if we can both make it back," he said softly.
"You always..." Phils shook his head helplessly, picked up his coffee cup and likewise drank it all, suppressing the drowsiness rising in his mind.
He still rembered, many years ago when they were all young, the three of them had always been close friends, but now...
