The eyeball snapped open.
Chen Lin felt some unknown being fix its gaze on him. Boundless terror arose for no reason, and his body froze, unable to move. Even the Ape Ancestor's bloodline power could not resist it.
Enveloped in the eerie light, his life force rapidly dissipated, and his consciousness began to blur.

But it had no effect.
Rather than suppressing the eyeball, the Ritual Formation made it even more active.

The word appeared in Chen Lin's mind.
But knowing did him no good.
Had he been in his original body, his unique soul would certainly have left him unafraid of body-snatching.
But this was the Life Task Space. Only his consciousness was his own; his body and soul were separate entities.

He merely watched the eyeball on his palm, pondering its origins.
His earlier thinking had been too simplistic.
If this thing truly had been created by ancient witches, those Ancient Wizards must have possessed the abilities of a Creator, standing even above the
