Shen Luo was caught off guard by what was happening. He couldn't muster his magic power to block it in time. His eyes suddenly felt a piercing pain as if they were being burned by flames.
"Ah!" He couldn't help but cry out in pain. He flipped over and fell onto the flying boat. He covered his eyes with his hands and curled up his body.
The scorching aura was moving in his eyes. The meridians around his eyes turned dark red and bulged out under his skin. They looked extremely terrifying.
'Oh no! Is there a problem with the records of Fangcun Mountain? 'Shen Luo cursed in his heart.
But it was too late now. He could only grit his teeth and endure it. At the same time, he channeled his magic power into his eyes in an attempt to counteract the scorching aura.
Bai Xiaotian and Chan 'er were alarmed when they saw this scene.
Bai Xiaotian quickly stopped the flying boat and landed in the desert below. He was just about to check on Shen Luo's situation.
The sand nearby suddenly exploded. An earthy yellow monster drilled out from the ground. It was a sandworm monster that looked like a centipede. It opened its bloody mouth and bit at the three of them.
Columns of sand rose from the desert and rolled towards the white flying boat.
This sandworm was quite strong. It had reached the level of Soul Condensation.
Bai Xiaotian hastily landed the flying boat. He didn't expect there to be a monster below. He quickly made a hand seal and pointed at the flying boat.
The runes on the boat suddenly lit up. The flying boat stuck close to the ground and shot forward. With a whoosh, it traveled more than a hundred feet and barely dodged the sandworm's attack.
The Buddha beads in Chan 'er's hand lit up with a golden light. It enveloped the flying boat and blocked the impact of the sand columns.
"Thank you for your help." Bai Xiaotian thanked the Buddha beads. He flipped his hand and took out the golden fan, fanning it out.
"Chi! Chi!" The sharp sounds were incessant. Countless golden light blades shot out from the fan and drowned the sandworm. Its body was riddled with holes. It didn't even let out a scream before it stopped breathing.
Bai Xiaotian scanned the surroundings with his divine senses. After confirming that there were no other monsters, he stopped the flying boat and checked on Shen Luo's situation. He quickly noticed that the problem was with Shen Luo's eyes.
He didn't know the cause and effect of this matter, so he didn't know what to do. After a slight hesitation, his lips opened and closed, and he quickly chanted an incantation while his two hands pointed out repeatedly.
Streaks of golden light shot out of his hand and merged into Shen Luo's body.
Although the Hua Sheng Temple was famous for its ability to subdue demons, there were also many healing spells in the temple. He did not know why Shen Luo's eyes had a problem, so he could only use all the spells he knew on Shen Luo.
Every time the golden light fell, a golden brilliance would rise from Shen Luo's body, rippling all over his body.
Meanwhile, Chan 'er also sat down beside Shen Luo and began to chant the Calming Mind Sutra.
As the Sanskrit chants rang out, they were like the whispers of a mother, comforting one's mind.
Shen Luo's body shook, and the extent of his struggle weakened a little.
When Bai Xiaotian and Chan 'er saw this, they didn't know whose actions were effective, so they could only continue to chant.
Time trickled by. An hour had passed.
Only then did the burning pain in Shen Luo's eyes subside, and the bulging meridians around him calmed down and returned to normal.
However, these meridians had all become much wider, and there were many more snake-shaped silver patterns on the meridian walls, obviously caused by the power of the snake gallbladder.
He slowly sat up from the ground and opened his eyes. A layer of silver light faintly appeared in the depths of his eyes, and there was even a vertical line flashing in it. It looked abnormally mysterious, as if there was a snake's eye hidden in his eyes.
"Brother Shen, how do you feel now? Eh! Your eyes seem a little different from before. "Only then did Bai Xiaotian stop. He looked at Shen Luo's eyes and asked in surprise.
Shen Luo looked at Bai Xiaotian, and his gaze paused for a moment.
His vision had changed greatly, and his vision had obviously improved a lot, especially in the aspect of microscopic observation. He could see many details that he had not noticed before. When Bai Xiaotian's expression changed, the minute changes in his facial muscles, the trembling of his eyelashes, and even the expansion and contraction of his pupils could be seen clearly. It was truly abnormal.
Not only that, but the flow of mana in Bai Xiaotian's body was also clearly displayed in his eyes.
In Shen Luo's field of vision at this moment, veins that emitted a faint white light appeared on Bai Xiaotian's body. Some were thick, some were thin, and they covered every part of his body. Those were meridians, and they were clearly displayed.
There were ten meridians that were different from the other meridians, and the white light in them was much more intense.
'These are Dharma meridians? Bai Xiaotian's aptitude is indeed not bad, to have condensed ten Dharma meridians, 'Shen Luo thought to himself.
Bai Xiaotian's dantian naturally could not escape his eyes. It presented a ball of dazzling white light, which far surpassed the Dharma meridians and the other meridians. Waves of white light surged within, emitting a strong wave of mana. It was much stronger than Shen Luo's own.
Shen Luo looked into the distance again. Although his long-distance vision had improved a little, it was not by much.
'Looks like the improvement of my eyesight is mainly focused on close-range observation and spying on mana,' he thought to himself, and felt even more delighted.
The ability of his eyes after the mutation was very useful, and the pain he had suffered previously was worth it.
Bai Xiaotian saw that Shen Luo was silent for a long time, and thought that he was still feeling unwell, so he hurriedly asked, "Shen Luo, are you alright?"
"I'm fine now. Thank you both for your help just now," Shen Luo came back to his senses and thanked Bai Xiaotian and Chan 'er.
Although he had been focused on suppressing the pain in his eyes, he had also seen Bai Xiaotian and Chan 'er's actions.
"Tell me, what happened to you just now?" Bai Xiaotian waved his hand and asked.
"The snake demon that I killed in White County City was a thousand-year-old Snake Demon. According to the ancient records, its snake gallbladder has the effect of improving one's eyesight. I just consumed the gallbladder of the thousand-year-old Snake Demon, and my eyes suddenly stung …" Shen Luo thought for a while, and didn't hide anything from the two. He told them the truth.
"So that's how it is. I've also seen records about the thousand-year-old Snake Demon in the ancient records. It is indeed a spiritual object with great nourishment. However, there are differences between humans and demons, so it's better not to consume the essence of these demons casually. It's safer to give it to an alchemist to refine into an elixir before consuming it," Bai Xiaotian said thoughtfully.
"Brother Bai is right. I was a little impatient this time." Shen Luo also had some lingering fear.
"Amitabha. Everything has its cause and effect. Benefactor Shen has done many good deeds. Previously, you even performed meritorious deeds by slaying the demon. Naturally, you can turn misfortune into blessings." Chan 'er smiled and wasn't worried at all.
"Thank you for your auspicious words, Master Chan 'er," Shen Luo thanked Chan' er even though he didn't agree with her blind optimism about the situation.
"Because of me, we've already wasted a lot of time. Let's set off quickly." He didn't want to talk too much about this issue. He glanced at the corpse of the sandworm not far away and said.
Bai Xiaotian nodded in agreement.
However, Chan 'er didn't say anything. She suddenly looked towards the northwest and was lost in thought.
"Master Golden Cicada, what's wrong?" Bai Xiaotian saw this scene and asked curiously.
