Accidentally Reincarnated in Cultivation World-Chapter 334: Judgemental Eyes and Random Punishment Tribulation
As the others gathered around the blinding radiance, unease spread through the spirit boat.
"Young Master... what were you doing just now?" Lin Fan asked cautiously.
He could feel it clearly.
Yu Zhen’s eyes were being healed, yet the energy Yu Xuan had released made even his soul and SNS(Simple Normal System) tremble.
"This..." Yu Xueqing murmured, staring unblinkingly at Yu Zhen.
"I don’t know what’s happening, but something very special is taking place."
The light intensified.
Illusory visions surfaced in the air.
A pair of eyes, vast and incorporeal, manifesting above Yu Zhen.
They were silver-white, cold and aloof, and within each pupil lay twin pupils, rotating slowly like celestial objects.
Those eyes looked at everyone at once.
Not threatening.
Not curious.
Judging.
Yu Bo stood frozen, his breathing shallow, his mind trembling on the verge of an epiphany he could neither grasp nor reject.
Yu Hao frowned deeply, instinctively clenching his fists.
Inside Mo Lin’s sword.
’This insane brat...! How dare he meddle with Creation?!’
The old woman nearly screamed herself hoarse.
Creation was not something one simply touched.
Only beings acknowledged by the Heavens, granted favour or existences born to defy them could interfere with it.
That was why Creation Affinity was rarer than Immortal bloodlines.
And yet Yu Xuan had just treated it like a casual experiment.
’Just give him a heaven-defying resource and be done with it! Why does he have to do things like this?!’
She fumed helplessly.
Mo Lin rubbed his temples, a dull headache forming, though he had no idea why.
Then.
The visions shattered into motes of silver light.
Those phantom eyes merged seamlessly into Yu Zhen’s face.
His body convulsed once.
And then.
Yu Zhen opened his eyes.
They were no longer empty sockets.
They were pure silver, radiant and deep, with twin pupils revolving faintly within.
For a moment, no one spoke.
Because those eyes felt... wrong.
Too sharp.
Too discerning.
Almost mean and judging them!
"...That look I guess the name would be... Judgmental Eyes," Yu Xuan muttered thoughtfully.
Yu Zhen’s gaze slowly focused.
And then.
He saw Yu Xuan.
Not as a person.
But as something else entirely.
"H–hic—!"
Yu Zhen’s face drained of all color.
Fear far surpassing death itself seized him.
Before anyone could react, his consciousness shut down completely.
He fainted, his mind instinctively erasing what it had just perceived, protecting itself from something it was not yet allowed to understand.
Yu Xuan raised an eyebrow.
Just now, he had felt those newly formed eyes attempt to look back at him.
Curious, he had allowed it.
And that was the result.
"...It’ll take him some time to recover," Yu Xuan said calmly.
Just then.
BOOM!
Dark thunder clouds rolled in without warning, coalescing directly above Yu Zhen and Yu Xuan’s head.
Despite the spirit boat’s tremendous speed, the clouds remained perfectly aligned with him.
Inside Mo Lin’s sword.
’He triggered a Heavenly Punishment?! OMA!’ (Oh My Ancestors!)
The old woman nearly lost her mind.
This wasn’t even a full violation, just a minor disturbance of heavenly law.
And yet—
’WHAT IS THAT?!’
Her panic doubled as she sensed the tribulation forming properly.
It was suddenly multiplied thrice, as if the Heavens wanted the Caster dead at all cost.
Everyone immediately backed away as Yu Xuan dismissed the spirit boat and gave a sharp signal.
Golden lightning descended.
BOOM!
It struck Yu Zhen.
Once.
Twice.
Again and again.
Though unconscious, Yu Zhen’s body was pushed to the brink of collapse.
At the edge of death, his newly awakened eyes flared instinctively, releasing faint silver light in desperate self-preservation.
Yu Xuan summoned True Nirvana Flames, wrapping Yu Zhen within them to sustain his life.
But the tribulation only grew fiercer.
The final bolt fell. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
When the light faded, Yu Zhen was charred black, his body barely intact.
Only his eyes still shone – silver, dim, and fragile.
Yu Xuan moved instantly.
A Soul-Nourishment Pill disappeared into Yu Zhen’s mouth.
The Nirvana Flames intensified, stabilizing his condition by force.
Yu Xuan then handed Yu Zhen to the others along with the spirit boat.
"Follow Ming Tianmei’s location," he ordered.
"I’ll be there."
The moment he vanished.
The tribulation clouds followed him.
Inside the sword, the old woman sighed in exhausted disbelief.
’Seriously... your Young Master has screws loose in his head.’
***
On the other side of the land, the demons stirred.
The moment the tribulation descended, a foreign pressure swept across the red sky.
It was not demonic.
It was not native.
And it made their bloodlines prickle.
Many demons paused mid-action, faces darkening as they instinctively looked toward the distant horizon where thunder still lingered.
"Did you feel that?" one demon muttered uneasily, scanning the horizon.
"What the hell... I’ve got chills all over," another growled, claws twitching.
"W–was Zu Min telling the truth?!" a third blurted out, panic in his voice.
"There really is a monster among the humans..."
"But that wasn’t a breakthrough," someone said hoarsely.
"So what in the Heavens was it?"
Something was being punished by heavens.
And that alone was enough to put even seasoned demons on edge.
After all, they were not here to die.
They were here to kill and get the reward from Evil Mind himself.
Meanwhile.
On another stretch of the crimson wasteland, Ming Tianmei was running.
Her movements were light, precise, almost leisurely – but she was undeniably running.
Not because she had to.
But because she should.
After all, a damsel in training still had a role to play.
She vaulted over shattered terrain, robes fluttering, expression calm yet faintly irritated.
Her senses were stretched wide, mapping the flow of destiny around her like a web.
Then.
She felt it.
A ripple.
An auspicious surge brushing past her perception.
Her steps slowed.
She frowned.
"...That wasn’t him," she murmured.
The aura carried harmony, elevation, something close to judgment but Yu Xuan’s presence was... neither those things.
And more importantly.
This hadn’t happened in the previous run.
So she needed to think about it.
