Chapter 236: Chapter 55 The Twisted Pupil_2

Upon arriving here and perceiving his surroundings carefully, Laine couldn’t even find the seeds left by the Fountain, only an unsettling aura drifting through the air around him.

“Mr. Laine, the Spring of Wisdom is a spiritual entity. Perhaps in the previous disaster, it instinctively attached itself to something nearby and concealed its presence,”

reminded the immense head of Mimir that was beside him.

“Maybe it has burrowed into this root system, or it could have merged into the depths of the earth. It might require some searching to find it.”

“You’re right, in fact, I’ve already found it.”

Looking down at the desolate and ruined land beneath his feet, Laine’s face was impassive. Below the pit, there was a strange aura distinctly different from its surroundings.

It was somewhat similar to the traces left in the Golden Palace, yet vastly different. If not unexpected, that was the Eye of Odin that Mimir spoke of previously. Hence, Laine extended his hand and beckoned gently towards the pit.

The next moment, the mud churned and a white pupil slowly floated up, flying towards the palm of Laine’s hand. However, just as it was about to land in his grasp, an abrupt change occurred.

The originally scattered and dull black pupil suddenly condensed into madness. A myriad of bizarre voices echoed in the space around, and shadows rolled up from behind Laine’s shadow, entwining towards him.

“Be careful!”

Mimir hurriedly cautioned, having not anticipated such an event.

Around Laine, the shadows thus transformed into various forms of life, rushing towards him fearlessly, only to be reduced to ashes the moment they neared him.

Even though it was only an eye, the power it demonstrated at this moment was extraordinary. Had it not been in this collapsing world of origins, but within the Chaos World, Laine had no doubt it could have contaminated millions of miles of land in an instant, and the rays from its pupil could have struck down stars.

Of course, that would be before the laws of the present world had been established. However, whether such twisted forms of life would care about the laws was another question.

“Do you know what’s going on?”

After observing for a while with no clues, Laine turned to Mimir.

At this moment, the eerie eyeball was still shooting out various kinds of rays from its pupil, with those inclined towards the spiritual being the most powerful.

The chaotic and mad spiritual will reminded Laine of Hyperion, the God of Sun whom he had turned into steps for ascension.

“... The last essence of the Spring of Wisdom seems to have merged with the Eye of Odin sacrificed by Odin, endowing it with endless knowledge and a vague consciousness. But this certainly wouldn’t cause it to become like this, since the knowledge gained from the Spring is orderly,”

Mimir observed, also unclear about what had happened with the eyeball in Laine’s hand.

“Perhaps this is related to the destruction of the world, Mr. Laine. This is the only link I can make out,”

he said, which, after many words, essentially amounted to nothing substantial. Mimir knew these details, as could Laine.

It seems that the Spring of Wisdom will likely not have a chance to be reborn in the Spirit Realm, as it has now fully fused with the changed Eye of Odin and is further mixed with other powers.
