Return Of The Demon

Soon the clan tournament came to an end. When the tournament ended, the prizes for the winners were distributed. But Bai Yun did not bother to go and collect them. They were deposited into Bai Yun"s account and he could withdraw them whenever he wanted. Of course, as the prize of a clan tournament, these weren"t too important. The prizes were things that Bai Yun could get any time he wished through his great grandfather or parents.

The only thing that was truly valuable was the opportunity to go to the clan treasury and collect one treasure that was given to the winners. That one treasure would most likely be something that Bai Yun would not be able to get even with his connections.

When the inquiry came as to when Bai Yun would go to the treasury, Bai Yun said that he would go after his eyes had healed. The delay was only a few days and as the direct descendant of a grand elder, no one would care if Bai Yun was a few days late in collecting his prize. So the others went to the treasury to collect their prizes, while Bai Yun waited for his eyes to heal. After all, only with the G.o.d sense could he tame something that he otherwise wouldn"t be able to with his G.o.d sense.

Soon four more days pa.s.sed. Bai Yun could feel that his new eyes were growing more and more powerful. Soon they would awaken.

Bai Yun was sitting in a large hall in his mansion. Bai Mu, Bai Tianji, Xiao Mei-er, and old Hai were all standing around him. They were the only ones who knew Bai Yun was awakening an innate ability. They had noticed that Bai Yun"s eyes would awaken any moment now and were eagerly waiting.

Bai Yun slowly felt the power growing in his eyes. He could feel the power adding the finishing touches to his new eyes.

The moment his eyes were completed, Bai Yun opened them. A bright purple golden light shone from his eyes, lighting up the whole room. A moment later the light disappeared and retreated back into his eyes. At the same time, a power ran through Bai Yun"s body, helping him to break through from the eighth stage of qi condensation to the ninth stage of the qi condensation realm. This breakthrough was extremely stable and smooth, as it was triggered by Bai Yun"s eyes.

When Bai Yun could see once again, he realized that his sight had improved by multiple times. He could see everything in front of him in much greater detail than before. Before his eyes mutated, he could see a fly a hundred yards from him only as a vague spot. Now he could clearly see the fly, and even the flapping of its wings. Not only that it was also as if the fly was beating his wings in slow motion. Everything was clearer and slower to Bai Yun.

Suddenly having a great improvement to his perception, Bai Yun was slightly disoriented. While it is possible to reach this level of sight with cultivation, it was a slow and gradual process. The sudden change in his sight was a bit difficult for Bai Yun to adjust to. It would probably take a few days before he could act as normal. And this improvement was before Bai Yun activated the ability in his eyes.

"Well." An impatient Bai Tianji said. "Let us see your ability."

Bai Yun smiled when he heard Bai Tianji. When his eyes opened the knowledge about teh new powers had automatically appeared in Bai Yun"s mind.

"Alright." Bai Yun said. Then he triggered the innate ability of his eyes.

The next second Bai Yun"s right eye lit up in a golden color. Bai Yun"s right pupil then turned golden. At the same time, a calm and revered feeling originated from his right eye. It felt like a G.o.d looking down from above and inspecting the world before him.

At the same time, Bai Yun"s left eye lit up with a purple color. His left pupil then turned purple. Unlike the right pupil, an unsettling feeling came from the left eye. It felt like it was the eye of a devil, forcing the world to bend to his will.

The people who were watching him all felt very weird when they saw Bai Yun"s eyes. The dichotomy of the two powers made them feel wrong. But they could still feel the horrifying power and potential behind those eyes.

For a while, Bai Yun activated the ability and stared at them. Bai Yun slowly got used to the ability of his eyes. As he used them Bai Yun also understood more about the abilities of his eyes.

Suddenly Bai Yun"s eyes turned back to black. The innate ability had come to an end.

"What happened?" Bai Mu asked. "Why did you stop the ability after only a few seconds?"

"I can"t use it anymore." Bai Yun said. "The energy that the ability use is too great. I can only manage it four seconds at full strength. And if use any of the special abilities of my eyes, it would only deplete my qi faster. Maybe I can use their abilities better when my cultivation increases."

"Are you telling me you have abilities in eyes other than simply activating them?" Bai Mu asked.

"Yes." BAi Yun replied. " When I activate my innate ability my eyesight improves by a factor of a hundred. I can catch things that even people at much higher cultivation realms cannot. And at the same time, it is like time slows down. My reaction speed increases and I can even move faster than before."

When they heard Bai Yuns description they were happy. The ability descripbed by Bai Yun seemd to be quite powerful.

"And you said that your eyes have even more powerful abilities." Bai Tianji asked.

"Yes." Bai Yun replied. "My two eyes have two different abilities. My right eye has an ability that I call truth seeker. Its basic ability is to amplify my sight and reflexes. It can also see through the lies in anything and seek out the truth. For example, if someone lies in front of me, I can tell. Not only that I can see through things and even find the hidden truth. That is, if there is a formation in front of me, then even without knowing anything about formations, I can find out how to break it."

When the group heard Bai Yun"s description of his ability, they were stunned. They did not know much about innate abilities and thought that Bai Yun"s abilities were amazing. Bai Yun on the other hand had seen even more horrifying abilities.

"And my left eye has a completely different ability." Bai Yun continued. "It can create illusions. It can both trap a single person or a group of people in an illusion. And the people who are trapped in an illusion may not be able to tell that they were in an illusion. And it can also project an illusion around me. By that, I mean that everyone who looks will see an illusion I designed in a small area around me. That is a demonic plant may appear. Or I could disappear. And no one would be able to tell just from looking. And all of this is only in the initial stages. I have a feeling that when my cultivation grows, more and more abilities will open up in my eyes."

When they heard Bai Yun"s left eyes ability they were even more amazed. They urged Bai Yun to show his powers over and over. Once Bai Yun recovered, he had to cast the special abilities of his eyes over and over again to satisfy their curiosity. When they saw that Bai Yun"s left eye could even trap them for a fraction of a second, they were very impressed by its power. The left eye would be a terrifying force against people who were not used to it. The more they thought about it, the more they were impressed by the new ability. Just think, if Bai Yun thrust his sword, but his left eye makes it look as if Bai Yun was actually swinging his sword. If that happened, the opponent would definitely defend against the wrong attack and would be easily killed.

The only thing that they were disappointed by was the consumption of Bai Yun"s ability. If he was using his special ability then he could not maintain it for a second. But in many battles, a second was enough to change the outcome.

But Bai Yun was even more confused by the limit of his ability. He knew a lot more about innate abilities than his family. He had met many people with very powerful innate abilities. And the stronger they were, the shorter they could be used for. But even the strongest one of them could be used for dozens of seconds even in the qi condensation realm. He had never even heard of an innate ability that couldn"t be used for even a second.

But from what he could tell of his eyes, it doesn"t seem as if it was too overbearing. While its power was simply horrifying, Bai Yun knew of a few abilities that were just as strong as his eyes.

Finally, Bai Yun figured that it was because he hadn"t reached the true potential of his eyes. It was purely Bai Yun"s conjecture, but he had a feeling that the day his eyes reach its full potential, especially his left eye, the whole world would tremble.

After the family found out about his ability, they left Bai Yun to get used to his new ability and sense. So Bai Yun sat down and studied his new abilities. He decided to call his right eye, the G.o.d eye, and the left eye the devil eye, due to which power was more concentrated in each eye. Together they would form the G.o.d and devil eyes.

And Bai Yun also studied the new power made from the merging of his G.o.d sense and the power of the devil. It was not as expansive as Bai Yun"s original gd sense, but it was far more pure and powerful. Bai Yun had a feeling that there were some changes to how the ability operated. For example earlier, if an attack came at Bai Yun, then the G.o.d sense would warm Bai Yun of it. But now if the same attack was coming at Bai Yun, he would only be notified of it after it came much closer. But at the same, the predictions would be far more accurate.

Bai Yun slowly studied the changes to his G.o.d sense. He decided to call the new power the G.o.d devil sense. He then sat there for the next two days slowly stabilizing the breakthrough in his cultivation as well as getting used to his new eyes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the same time when Bai Yun was gettign used to his new eyes, in a place far away a black robed youth with blue eyes slowly opened his eyes.

When he got up an ancient feeling was slowly emitting from him. He stood at his window and stared out at the scenery while thinking.

Suddenly the door opened, and a little girl wearing a red dress walked into the room. The moment she walked in, she stopped. The youth felt different today. As if something about him had changed.

"Young master are you okay?" The little girl asked timidly.

"Better than ever before." The young man said with a smile. He then turned to the young girl with a smile. The moment he did so, the young girl felt a warm breeze flow over her body.

The young man studied the little girl. The little girl fidgeted a bit, looking scared. Suddenly the young man asked "Little red, do you want to study cultivation."

The little girl was scared by the question. "Young master you know that the servents like me are not allowed to cultivate." The little girl replied.

"Who says that?" The young man said with a laugh. "From now on what I say goes. I want to see just who has the guts to go against me."

Then the young man moved towards the little girl and slowly imparted a cultivation technique to the little girl. Even though she was scared, the little girl followed the young man"s orders. Being able to cultivate was a dream come true for the little girl.

Seeing that the little girl had started to cultivate, the young man stood up and walked away. He once again stared out the window with a smile that could light up a million worlds.

Within that smile was the confidence that the whole world was his oyster.
