Chapter 1059: Nether Eye
“Phew… that was too close!”
At the foot of Forgotten Peak, Ye Qing finally stepped out of the darkness and shot the cloud shrouded mountain with a long, narrow-eyed look. At the same time, he felt a flash of fear and trepidation.
That was seriously too close. If he was just a little slower, then the Tomb Keepers would have discovered him, and he would be in deep, deep trouble.
The eyeballs that spied on him earlier were called the Nether Eye. A Phenomenon-class Stranger that was shaped like an eyeball, it was called the Nether Eye because it was born in the Nether.
The Nether Eye was divine in the sense that it could not be seen, heard, or perceived by a flesh-and-bloody being. If it encountered a living being, it would follow them and watch their every move. It was impossible to shake them off. Once the Nether Eye had observed all possible actions their victim could take, the victim would lose their eyes and become permanently blind.
In summary, the Nether Eye was an extremely rare and anomalous Stranger.
The white object Ye Qing ignited earlier to reveal the Nether Eyes was the horn of a Psychic White Rhino. There was one quote in a book called the “Garden of the Strange”: “The living rhino cannot be burned. If burned, it would give off a strange scent that clings to the clothes, and Man would be able to communicate with ghosts.”
It was a description of the power of the Psychic White Rhino’s horn.
A Disaster-class Stranger, the Psychic White Rhino possessed the ability to see deities, ghosts, and all other supernatural beings. Its horn in particular could be ignited to identify an anomaly that could not be identified; see the evil that could not be seen.
