Chapter 244 The Evolution of the Star Eclipse Eye
The Star Source effect of Daydream allows Mirror Glass to maintain a 'dream state' while in a waking state, thus preserving the 'Dream Butterfly' for an extended period.

At the same time, the dream butterfly phosphorus powder of 'Eternal Night Illusion Butterfly' will plunge those star beasts affected by the phosphorus powder into nightmares and fear.

These fears automatically transform into nourishment for 'daydreams,' making the tangible dream creations stronger and more bizarre.

In this way, the combination of the star source and the star core creates an effect similar to stepping on the right foot with the left foot and taking off from the spot.

"Oh, I feel a little sleepy."

Jing Liuli yawned and then mumbled something in a daze.

On the sea not far from her, a large number of star beasts, haunted by nightmares, went into a berserk state and began to indiscriminately attack other star beasts around them.

Meanwhile, Jing Liuli's 'dream creations' acted like shrewd hunters, relentlessly reaping the severely wounded star beasts amidst the chaos.

As a result, a large number of star beast corpses quickly floated to the surface of the sea. Broken scales, severed limbs, and tentacles were scattered everywhere, and blood stained the sea red, creating a terrifying scene comparable to hell.

But Jing Liuli, who was in the center of this 'hell', remained quite leisurely.

Ignoring the horrific battlefield before her, she pulled a pink candy from her pocket, unwrapped it, and popped it into her mouth. As the sweetness melted on her tongue, the dream-like creations around her became even more vibrant.

"Sure enough, Dream Candy tastes sweetest when eaten with Nightmare, after all."

Jing Liuli swung her legs, closed her eyes, and looked at the sea surface where another level-two star beast was swallowed by her 'dream creation', her eyes smiling into crescent shapes.

"Your nightmares are my sweet dreams~"

As the screams of star beasts echoed from the sea, more and more star beast corpses floated on the surface.

The other star beasts beneath the sea quickly realized just how terrifying the area on the surface shrouded in phosphorescent powder was.

Their survival instinct made them suppress their bloodlust, and they all tucked their tails between their legs and fled the area.

Sensing the 'dreamlike aura' around her growing fainter, Jing Liuli licked the sugar crumbs from the corner of her lips and opened her eyes.

She snapped her fingers, and the dream-like creations around her suddenly surged. Giant scissors shredded the last star beast that tried to approach, and the black tears of the puppet doll ignited into eerie blue flames on the sea surface. The shadows receded into her body like a tide, leaving only the remains of star beasts scattered on the ground.

Gazing at the now completely calm sea, Jing Liuli stood up and brushed off the Dream Butterfly phosphorescence powder that clung to her skirt.

"All done, that's a wrap!"

As she finished speaking, Jing Liuli looked in the direction of the first-class cabin, pouted, and said, "Tiandao, I'll remember your handling fee~ The chocolates next time we meet have to be doubled!"

Just as the crisis on Jing Liuli's side was resolved, some commotion was heard from the front of the steam train.

Inside the first-class cabin, Tiandao became increasingly accustomed to the changes brought about by the Star Eclipse Sky Eye.

The silver starlight surrounding Tiandao gradually condensed into a vortex, and the star energy particles floating in the air rushed into his body like fireflies caught by an invisible gravitational force.

During this process, his star energy value began to climb at an astonishing rate.

Thirty thousand, forty thousand, fifty thousand.

It wasn't until after 50,000 that the Heavenly Dao voluntarily stopped the cells within its body from consuming star energy.

This is not the limit of his body, but the perfect boundary he has set for himself.

[Your 'Star Core - Star Eclipse Eye' breakthrough is complete. You have gained a new Star Core Awakening effect and can choose one basic effect to enhance.]

[Name: Star Eclipse Tianmu]

[Type: Special System Star Core]

【Effect 1. Star Trail Observation: You can clearly observe the subtle flow of stellar energy and pinpoint its weaknesses.】

[Effect 2. Stellar Eclipse Interference: You can interfere with the observed stellar energy flow trajectory to a certain extent and greatly enhance your control over your own stellar energy.] [Effect 3. Fate Orbit Prediction: By observing the stellar energy flow trajectory data, you can predict one hundred possible actions of the enemy 3-5 seconds later, based on the enemy's level and strength. In certain situations, you can even predict fragmented future events.]

[First Awakening Effect - Spatial Interference: You can observe subspace nodes and interfere with them to a certain extent, with a maximum range of 100 meters.]

[Second Awakening Effect - Heavenly Eye Rewind: Allows you to rewind your status within 5 seconds (such as injuries, location), but cannot change external events that have already occurred, or your own Star Energy value. (Can only be used once within 24 hours, passively triggered when receiving a fatal injury)]

Three basic effects and two awakening effects.

The "Heavenly Eye Retrospection" is a special awakening effect that the Heavenly Dao obtained after successfully breaking through the Star Eclipse Heavenly Eye this time.

The power of this ability goes without saying; it's tantamount to giving the Heavenly Dao a second life.

After sweeping over the three basic effects, Heaven's gaze finally settled on 'foreseeing destiny'.

You have enhanced the effect of 'Star Eclipse Eye - Fate Track Prediction'.

[Star Eclipse Eye - Fate Track Prediction: By observing the flow of stellar energy, you can predict a thousand possible actions an enemy might take 3-5 seconds from now, based on their level and strength. When activated actively, it allows you to foresee the fragmented future of a target up to one month in advance.]

The moment the enhancement took effect, Tiandao felt that the previously blurry 'trajectory of fate' in his vision suddenly became clear.

This made him even more satisfied with the results of his enhancement this time.

After all, both 'star orbit observation' and 'star eclipse interference' can directly enhance his combat power.

However, his combat strength is already the highest among his peers. Given his familiarity with the plot, further increasing his combat strength would undoubtedly result in 'damage overflow' and little benefit.

But 'fate prediction' is different, because the future has no upper limit.

At the same time, the power of its ability to predict fate far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people.

It's important to understand that the objects observed for predicting destiny's trajectory aren't just living people; inanimate objects are included as well.

In other words, if Heaven so desires, it can predict someone's movements over the next month by touching their personal belongings and lay an ambush in advance.

Of course, it's not worth it for ordinary people to do such a thing.

But it's always good to be prepared.

Upon waking up, Tiandao immediately sensed movement coming from the rear of the carriage, from Chenxing's side.

This also made Tiandao unable to resist trying out his newly awakened Star Eclipse Eye.

Tiandao stood up and lightly traced his fingertips across the alloy carriage wall.

Without a deafening roar, the subspace node precisely shifted under the interference of stellar eclipse.

The hard walls of the compartment slid open slowly to the sides like a curtain, revealing the crimson mist and the howling sea wind outside.

Its cuts are so smooth that even the smallest metal molecules are arranged neatly, as if this alloy wall was meant to be opened like this from the moment it was created.

Looking at this special 'exit', Tiandao walked straight out.

Shortly after he left, the previously open carriage slowly closed.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

This is a special use of 'subspace' nodes, which artificially opens a passage without destroying any objects in reality simply by separating the distribution of spatial nodes.

In other words, the Heavenly Dao is currently unable to open subspace nodes that are too far apart at the same time, and its current physical body is not yet able to stably withstand the tearing within the subspace.

Otherwise, he could even traverse thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.
