Chapter 148 Liu Yuan Completes Gold-Level Second Awakening! Double Pupils Become Triple Pupils!
Above the Body Sect, the purple-gold soul power vortex spun more and more violently, and the heaven and earth elemental power within a radius of several miles seemed to be drawn by some powerful force, surging towards Liu Yuan's residence like a tide.
Poison Undying hovered in mid-air, his double emerald green pupils constricted tightly, and his breathing became heavy and rapid due to excessive excitement.
He stared intently at the roof below, which was completely pierced by the purple-gold light. The tremor in his heart caused by the resonance of his bloodline made even this level 98 Super Douluo feel a slight chill.
The more he thought about the poison not killing him, the more excited he became.
He knew very well that before Liu Yuan had even awakened his true martial soul for the second time, his combat ability had already reached a terrifying level that was enough to instantly kill a six-ring evil soul master, the Soul Emperor, and severely injure a gold-level second-awakened Long Aotian with a single punch.
The sheer power built upon the 100,000-year-old Crimson Ring and the origin of the Double Pupils has placed Liu Yuan in a near-invincible vacuum among his peers.
Right now, Liu Yuan is at a critical moment in the second awakening of his martial soul.
"If it really succeeds..." Poison Undying murmured, his eyes gleaming with fanaticism.
"With his foundation, once he completes the second awakening, it will definitely not be just a simple physical enhancement, but another leap in his life level."
"By then, his combat power will probably cross the boundary between Soul King and Soul Emperor, approaching Soul Saint, or even stronger!"
Poison Undying was filled with unprecedented anticipation for this.
The Body Sect has been lying low for many years. Although it has always been known as one of the top sects in the world, it has never been able to truly reach the top under the suppression of Mu En, the Limit Douluo.
Now that Mu En is dead, and Liu Yuan is undergoing a qualitative change at this juncture, in Du Busi's view, it is simply the will of heaven favoring the Body Sect.
Soon, as the strange phenomenon continued to expand, several powerful auras pierced the sky and instantly descended around the residence.
Elder Chen arrived first with several senior elders who remained in the sect. They looked at the huge purple-gold vortex in the sky, and their faces were filled with horror.
Immediately afterwards, Long Aotian, Chen Lu, and many other disciples of the Body Sect arrived at full speed.
Because the spatial tearing sensation emanating from Liu Yuan's residence was too strong, these disciples dared not get too close and could only stand at the edge of the training ground a hundred meters away.
Upon arriving at this place, everyone was first taken aback by the unfamiliar and terrifying aura emanating from Liu Yuan's residence.
That aura wasn't just a suppression of soul power, but more of a deterrent from the depths of the soul, as if a god was awakening in that room.
"Sect Master!" Elder Chen flew to the side and behind Poison Undying and asked urgently.
"This aura... Could it be that Liu Yuan is really about to succeed? This fluctuation seems to be several times more intense than Ao Tian's awakening back then!"
Long Aotian also looked up, staring intently at the tightly closed door, his eyes filled with shock and anticipation.
Having personally witnessed Liu Yuan's strength, he knew better than anyone how incredible Liu Yuan would become if the amplification from the second awakening were added on top of that.
Although Poison Immortal was inwardly turbulent, he maintained the composure of a sect leader on the surface, nodding slightly in response:
"So far, everything seems to be going smoothly. His double pupils are undergoing a deep fusion with his bloodline, which indicates that his awakening level is extremely high. Everyone, please calm down, do not disturb him, and patiently wait for the final result."
Upon hearing this, everyone suppressed their astonishment, and the area around the martial arts arena instantly fell silent.
Although they no longer discussed it, the eyes that were fixed on the door were filled with curiosity and inquiry.
Every member of the Body Sect silently calculated in their hearts: If Liu Yuan really succeeds, how much will his strength improve afterward? Will it be a significant leap in soul power, or a further evolution of his double pupil ability?
Time flowed on in the dead silence.
One hour, two hours...
As the sun gradually set in the west, its purplish-gold radiance not only did not diminish, but became even more condensed, eventually transforming into a purplish-gold pillar of light that pierced the sky.
Finally, after waiting for about half a day, the originally violent cyclone suddenly contracted, and the terrifying aura that had enveloped everyone reached its peak in an instant before suddenly receding.
"Click—"
A crisp sound of the door opening was particularly clear in the deathly quiet afternoon.
The door to the second-floor balcony of Liu Yuan's residence was slowly pushed open, and a tall, slender figure walked out with steady steps.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yuan lightly touched the balcony railing with his toes, and his figure flew directly towards the direction where Du Busi and the elders were, like a purple-gold flying goose.
At this moment, thousands of eyes in the entire arena were fixed intently on Liu Yuan's body.
The disciples held their breath, trying to find traces of Liu Yuan's second awakening.
But soon, everyone's expression changed, from curiosity to extreme horror.
They discovered that Liu Yuan's signature double pupils had completely changed.
The two overlapping pupils split and recombine within the purple-gold divine light, eventually evolving into three pupils radiating a faint divine glow.
The three pupils were arranged in a triangular shape in the center of the eye socket, and the edge of each pupil was engraved with extremely complex spatial inscriptions.
These eyes are no longer just double pupils, but have evolved into a higher-dimensional "triple pupil".
Moreover, the mental energy fluctuations emanating from Liu Yuan at this moment were ridiculously strong, and that invisible pressure rippled through the void.
Just as Liu Yuanfei approached, because he had just completed his evolution and his aura was not yet fully concealed, the divine light that spontaneously flowed from his three pupils swept across the entire area.
Those weaker disciples of the Body Sect felt their minds go blank the moment they met Liu Yuan's gaze, and stood frozen in place as if struck by lightning.
Even Long Aotian, who stood at the very front row, possessed profound cultivation and a firm will, was momentarily stunned when he met Liu Yuan's three pupils.
At that moment, Long Aotian felt the world before him collapse instantly, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss. His consciousness became hazy, and a strong urge to prostrate himself arose deep within his soul. He almost lost himself completely in those eyes.
"Concentrate!"
Poison Immortal sensed something was wrong and suddenly let out a powerful shout.
A gentle yet domineering wave of soul power swept across the entire area in an instant, forcibly severing Liu Yuan's mental suppression of everyone and pulling Long Aotian and the others back from the illusion.
Even so, after Long Aotian and the others came to their senses, they still felt a chill down their backs.
Large drops of cold sweat streamed down his temples. Long Aotian was breathing heavily, and his eyes, as he looked at Liu Yuan, now held an unprecedented fear.
"What...what happened just now?" Long Aotian wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, still shaken.
"Junior brother, just now, I felt like my soul was being sucked into your eyes. The pressure was so strong that I couldn't even muster a thought to resist."
Elder Chen also felt his heart race. Looking at Liu Yuan's strange yet sacred three pupils, he exclaimed in astonishment:
"This is no longer a simple mental attack; it's a complete suppression of rank. Sect Master, the change in Liu Yuan's eyes... is unheard of!"
Liu Yuan had already flown to and stood in front of Du Busi.
Hearing the crowd's discussion, his mysterious three pupils closed slightly. When he opened them again, the suffocating divine light had been forcibly suppressed, and he regained his restrained demeanor.
"I apologize, senior brother, and elders." Liu Yuan bowed slightly apologetically. "I have just completed the second awakening and evolution of my martial soul, and I am not yet able to control this new power very precisely. I apologize for disturbing you all."
At this point, Du Busi wouldn't care about such details.
He rushed to Liu Yuan and placed his hands on Liu Yuan's shoulders. His fingertips were trembling slightly from excitement.
He scrutinized Liu Yuan from head to toe, lingering for a long time on Liu Yuan's evolved three pupils, and finally made a decision that shocked everyone present: "Gold level! My god! I'm not seeing things, am I? You're practically a second-stage Gold level Martial Soul Awakening!"
