Chapter 1160 - 838: Eye of God’s Gaze

Chapter 1160: Chapter 838: Eye of God’s Gaze

The interior and exterior of the Divine Hall are completely isolated, like two different worlds.

This is a massive suspended city, patrolled by an army everywhere, solemn and strict, uniformly aligned.

The beastmen placed inside the Divine Hall are extraordinarily powerful; at a glance, they are all beastmen of the Primordial Beast Tier, some commanders even at the Breaking Yuan Rank!

Shen Tang was horrified at heart; this might be the real trump card of the Divine Hall.

Once this secret army is unleashed, it would be a devastating blow to the outside world, and no race could withstand the assault of the Divine Hall. Even if all races united, they would likely not be opponents.

Over the years, the Divine Hall has silently accumulated such formidable strength, possibly deeming it unnecessary to feign alliance with other races... Before long, they will reveal their true colors and bring the entire Eris Star under their control.

Shen Tang found an opportunity, knocked out a lone beastman, donned the army uniform, put on a mask, and successfully infiltrated the ranks.

A troop approached from the front. Leading them was a tall, upright young man with brown hair, handsome and dignified, like an unsheathed sharp blade, with awe-inspiring righteousness.

Memory long idle in a corner suddenly surged back, Shen Tang froze, Qin Han?

How could he be here?

The lion-clan youth led the patrol with a cold and calm demeanor, his entire aura different from the past.

Back when they met, Qin Han was rather quiet too, but his essence was gentle, cold exterior with warm interior, like a neighborly brother, caring for the younger siblings in the team.

Now, he seemed devoid of any human emotions, like the beastmen in the army transformed by the Divine Hall, making her feel unfamiliar.

They hadn’t seen each other for over a year, the squad members had long gone their separate ways, Shen Tang had never expected to meet Qin Han here.

He mentioned once that his dream, like many lower-tier male beastmen, was to be selected into the Divine Hall’s Guard Army.

Compared to the family armies, the Divine Hall is more fair and impartial, the belief of many lower-tier beastmen.

Unexpectedly, Qin Han indeed embarked on this path; they ultimately stood opposed...

Due to past kindness, Shen Tang did not wish to become enemies with Qin Han nor wanted him to recognize her.

She lowered her head, controlled her emotions, and followed the troop away.

Qin Han paused mid-step, his calm demeanor seeming slightly dazed, he turned to look behind.

Strange...

He seemed to catch a fleeting familiar scent, like an illusion.

After leaving the group, Shen Tang quickly changed into another identity and continued her infiltration, searching for the entrance.

Suddenly, she felt something watching her, a colossal pressure enveloped her like thorns on her back!

It was already late at night, Shen Tang gazed up, finding a cold, dimly glowing new moon in the sky!

No, upon closer look, it was not a real moon; it resembled a giant eye of God gazing down, leaving all secrets exposed.

Shen Tang’s back turned cold, goosebumps arose all over, even her breath seemed to stop, "What is this?"

The system cautioned, [Be careful, Host! This eye is bizarre, I sense immensely powerful terrifying energy!]

This energy even made it tremble instinctively, wanting to shut down, akin to the presence of the Main System.

Shen Tang purchased an invisibility cloak from the mall at a high price and draped it over herself.

Since binding with the Main System, the system underwent a comprehensive upgrade, adding more advanced tools and items to the mall, capable of resisting stronger forces.

The opponents she faced now were mostly above the Primordial Beast Tier, rendering her previous concealing talisman easily detectable... Once she put on the cloak, the pressure indeed vanished.

She breathed a sigh of relief and continued searching for the entrance.

"System, connect me to the Main System."

[Alright, Host.]

After a short wait, the connection was established.

A lazy and magnetic voice came through, hoarse with affection after intimacy, "Little Tangguo, why are you looking for me?"

Shen Tang’s mouth twitched; where did this crazy nickname come from? The fellow seemed like a philanderer, probably seducing numerous girls!

Shen Tang was too lazy to waste words, bluntly asked, "I want to know what the Eye of God’s Gaze inside the Divine Hall is? Also, where is the core I’m looking for hidden?"

"Seems you’ve seen the Eye of God’s Gaze; it’s the regulator of the Divine Hall, observing all life and things below. The whole Divine Hall is under its surveillance; beware not to be discovered."

The Star Lord chuckled, "The core of the Divine Hall is hidden within the Eye of God’s Gaze; once you reach there, you will naturally see it."

Eye of God’s Gaze... Shen Tang seemed to recall Shu Kui mentioning it.

The interior of the Divine Hall is also known as Oracle City, yet he and other Holy Seat members have never seen the true founder of the Divine Hall, the legendary True God, who never truly appeared.

Generally, they receive tasks through an entity called the Eye of God’s Gaze.

For them, the Eye of God’s Gaze is equivalent to the True God of the Divine Hall, an existence all Divine Hall beastmen must submit loyalty to.

The entryway door, made of unknown materials, is embellished with intricate, beautiful patterns, exuding an ancient, weighty aura.

Symmetrically carved wings adorn the doors; one wing is pure and holy white, the other dark as an abyss.

The Blood Race Monarch, Nie Yi, died beneath this totem.

A mere glance frightened her with dangerous, terrifying aura, invoking a fear from the soul.

The Blood Clan’s destruction was indeed related to the mastermind behind the Divine Hall.

"System, commence decryption."

Shen Tang instructed the system to breach the Divine Hall’s security system.

[Decrypting... 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%... Estimated to take 20 minutes.]

Blue fragments emerged from Shen Tang’s body, representing the system’s power, as massive points were converted into energy injected for decryption.

Her account points rapidly depleted.

The points accumulated from years of missions evaporated like foam within minutes!

Red alarms sounded surrounding her.

"Not good, an intruder has breached!"

"Kill her, the intruder must not escape!"

The army charged towards her.

Shen Tang’s body gathered robust superpowers, transforming into countless ice blades, efficiently slashing the pursuing enemies.

"Boom—"

The door finally cracked open.

Shen Tang’s presence was completely exposed.

The suspended Eye of God’s Gaze in the sky turned like a real eye, slowly casting its gaze.

From thousands of miles away, the dangerous sight landed on Shen Tang, locking onto this mysterious presence that shouldn’t be here.

A commanding, gender-neutral voice resonated in the air,

"Intruders, die."

A laser burst forth from the Eye of God’s Gaze, targeting Shen Tang directly.

Shen Tang felt like a mouse cornered by a cat, goosebumps prickled her skin, a chill surged from her head straight to her crown!

Instinctively, she hurriedly evaded; at her former position, a colossal crater appeared instantly.

She was horrified, instinctively wishing to flee, but such an escape meant the system couldn’t continue decrypting the door, efforts in vain.

Shen Tang had no choice but to endure, gathering her entire energy, forming an energy barrier around her.

The laser struck again, causing a massive crack in the barrier.

Instantly, it seemed like a slick of metallic blood was about to spill from her throat, but she forcibly swallowed it back.

This energy was indeed powerful... Even though she was already at the Breaking Yuan Rank, the absolute peak existence, the attack instilled uncontrollable fear within her.

What kind of entity lay behind God’s eye?

Another laser swept in; Shen Tang was flung several meters away, collided fiercely against the wall, causing massive collapses of building structures.

The third attack struck the barrier at shatter!

Simultaneously, the system activated the emergency teleportation function.

Shen Tang vanished from the site.

Space fluctuated; when she reappeared, she was inside a secluded alley.

She clutched her chest, spewed a mouthful of blood, her face terribly pale.

Swiftly, she applied her healing ability to mend her body.

Outside, army voices were coming through.

Shen Tang gritted her teeth, initially intended to find a place to hide—

A cold gun muzzle pressed against her back.

A man’s cold, deep voice sounded behind,

"Surrender; you cannot escape."
