The Eye That Sees Through Illusions, Crushing Suppression from a Higher Dimension

In the deepest part of the underground black market in Jinling City, in an absolutely soundproof secret room.

Four figures with profound and unfathomable auras sat around a round table, the atmosphere extremely tense.

"Old Chang reported that a mysterious person possessed a jade slip containing profound Earth-Level Profound Truth, and wanted a cultivation technique to the Blood Transformation Realm."

The middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table, with a hideous scar on his left cheek, spoke in a deep voice. His nickname was "Blood Hand," and he was one of the four big bosses of this black market.

"Earth Grade blood skill? Hmph, this sounds like a trap to lure us in." A burly, bald man next to him sneered. "Even Profound Grade skills are rare, and now a Earth Grade one suddenly appears? Could it be the city defense army or those ' Night Watchers ' mad dogs setting up a sting operation? Or even... maybe those man-eating Variants are throwing out bait!"

"But what if... it's true?"

The third manager tapped the table, his eyes gleaming with undisguised greed. Although they were black market giants, they were merely rogue cultivators at the Early Blood Transformation Realm, stuck at that level for many years. A single Earth Grade martial skill would be enough to double their combat power, or even allow them to kill enemies of a higher level!

"Let's do it! Martial Dao are a battleground, and this black market is a dangerous business!" Blood Hand gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and then turned to look at the gaunt man who had been sitting silently in the shadows.

"Fourth brother, I'll go investigate that guy's background later. You've been secretly cultivating that ' Illusion-Breaking Void Pupils ' these past few years, so stay hidden and keep a close eye on him!"

The gaunt man, known as "Fourth Brother," nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Don't worry, brother. Although this ' Illusion-Breaking Void Pupils ' is rated as Yellow Grade and is extremely obscure and difficult to understand—it doesn't even have a path for the circulation of Qi and blood, so it doesn't seem like a blood technique at all... I've cultivated it diligently for eight years and finally Minor Accomplishment."

"As soon as he circulates his qi and blood, whether he's an official expert or Variants disguised as a human, he'll all have to reveal his true form before my eyes!"

Ten minutes later, in the top VIP room of the black market.

Dongfang Yueming sat on the leather sofa, closing his eyes to rest.

With a soft footstep, ' Blood Hand ' pushed open the door and walked in with a big smile on his face, carrying two expensive cups of exotic beast blood wine.

"My friend, I've kept you waiting. I'm the manager here, you can call me Old Qian." Blood Hand put down his wine cup, sat down opposite Dongfang Yueming, and began to ingratiate himself, "My friend, this is truly astonishing! May I ask which famous family you come from?"

Dongfang Yueming did not touch the glass of wine; his gaze, hidden beneath the black hood, remained calm and serene.

"Let's skip the formalities. Did you bring the gifts?"

"Hehe, my friend is certainly straightforward. We certainly have Blood Transformation Realm cultivation techniques in the black market, but this transaction amount is too large; we need to go through some procedures..."

Just as Blood Hand was spouting nonsense and trying to stall for time to test Dongfang Yueming's true intentions...

Behind an oil painting on the wall of the VIP room, there is a very discreet one-way perspective hole.

The fourth brother was hiding in the secret room, taking a deep breath, and suddenly smeared two fingers together over his eyes!

"Buzz!"

His pupils dilated instantly, turning into an eerie grayish-white. Everything around him began to blur in his vision, leaving only the pure flow of energy and blood.

He turned his gaze to the man in black sitting on the sofa.

However.

The moment he saw it clearly, the fourth brother's breath caught in his throat!

"What... what the hell is this?!"

In his book "Illusion-Breaking Void Pupils," the man in black has no human features whatsoever!

What he saw was not a cloud of blood, but a... bottomless, terrifying abyss capable of swallowing all light and Vitality! In the deepest part of that abyss, a faint divine radiance flowed, making even his soul tremble!

"Pure, repressive, aloof... completely inhuman!"

The fourth brother trembled violently, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat.

"This is definitely not human! This monster, which compresses all its vital energy to the extreme, without leaking even a trace, yet exudes an aura of destruction... Could it be one of the legendary 'royal' beings among those Variants?!"

"He came to the black market not to trade, but to hunt us down!!"

Extreme fear instantly overwhelmed the fourth brother's reason!

And just then...

Dongfang Yueming, who had been silently listening to Blood Hand's nonsense, suddenly raised a finger and gently tapped the coffee table in front of him.

"Clatter."

A crisp sound interrupted Blood Hand's incessant chatter.

Dongfang Yueming slowly raised his head. His gaze, hidden in the shadows, did not look at the Blood Hand in front of him, but went straight past him and locked onto the extremely tiny one-way peephole in the wall with unparalleled precision!

"The eyes behind the wall..."

Dongfang Yueming's voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling quality that pierced the soul.

Have you seen enough?

"Boom!"

These words, when they reached the ears of Blood Hand and Old Fourth in the dark room, were like a thunderclap!

Blood Hand's smile froze instantly. How could he have known?! This VIP room was filled with lead layers that blocked perception; even an ordinary Blood Transformation Realm wouldn't be able to detect the fourth brother in the hidden room!

"Drop--!"

Inside the VIP room, the communicator at Blood Hand's waist suddenly emitted an extremely piercing, high-pitched beep!

This was the highest-level danger signal agreed upon by the four head managers, "The target is a high-level Variants. Attack immediately, fight to the death!"

Their cards were instantly revealed, coupled with the fourth brother's warning.

A tremendous fear instantly overwhelmed the reason of the four Blood Transformation Realm experts!

Blood Hand's previously smiling face instantly turned into a hideous grin!

"Do it!!"

"Boom--!!!"

Without any hesitation, four terrifying Blood Transformation Realm auras erupted simultaneously inside and outside the VIP room in that instant!

"Crackling and popping!"

A series of popping sounds, like popping beans, emanated from Blood Hand's body. He sprang up from the sofa like a cannonball, his claws tearing through the air with a scarlet glow, aiming straight for Dongfang Yueming's throat!

At the same time, the ceiling and walls of the VIP room suddenly shattered!

The other two head managers, along with the fourth brother who broke through the wall, formed a pincer movement and unleashed their most powerful and secret martial arts techniques without reservation!

The four Blood Transformation Realm experts must strike first to gain the upper hand!
