Suddenly, a white light flared up abruptly, and then, after this halo made contact with Ethan Bolton's senses, it immediately began to flicker uncertainly.

As for Ethan Bolton, in an instant, he was immersed in a place that felt like a time-space tunnel.

Chapter 3 The Third Eye Opens

In this place, he could personally see a beam of light instantly forming a huge, black hole-like void, devouring some extremely bizarre monsters. Then, the ten white halos above that beam of light suddenly merged, transforming into a green crystal.

After the green crystal formed, it naturally first split off a green halo, which circled around the outside of the green crystal. Then, the devouring began again.

Ethan Bolton saw enormous steel four-legged lizards, gigantic golden lizards, flying monsters that looked like earthworms, and so on—all of them were devoured by this black hole monster. The green halos instantly increased to ten rings. Then, all ten layers of the green halos merged, forming a blue crystal. As the devouring continued, after the blue crystal reached ten blue rings, it then entered the purple crystal stage. When the purple crystal's outer layer reached ten rings, it evolved once more into a golden crystal! The golden crystal, after devouring terrifying behemoths and planet-like spheres, reached ten rings, and then transformed into an eye. That eye, like a pine cone, flickered with an eerie light!

When this light shone upon Ethan Bolton's senses, he once again felt as if struck by lightning. His whole body trembled, and he instantly broke free from that terrifying space shrouded in white mist.

Then, he woke up, and the intense soreness radiating from his body made him realize that this was not a dream.

But what exactly was that white halo?

Ethan Bolton felt a bit uneasy in his heart. Practicing without anyone to guide him had led to this, and he didn't even know what to do next.

He searched online for a lot of related information, but it was completely useless. As for the name "Sky City," that was just something Ethan Bolton had added himself after modifying it. The original name was "ALAJE," but he couldn't find anything about it at all! And the web address he had recorded that day—by the next day, Ethan Bolton was already unable to open it, and to this day, it still can't be accessed.

It was a web domain that had been invalid for a long time!

All of this was shrouded in strangeness, so at this moment, Ethan Bolton truly felt a bit lost and at a loss for what to do.

After thinking for a while and focusing his mind, Ethan Bolton tried to sense his sea of consciousness, the Baihui acupoint, and so on, but there was no response. However, when he focused his awareness on the spot between his eyebrows, suddenly, his consciousness seemed to fall once again into a deep, inescapable dream. Inside, that twenty-seven cubic meter space appeared once more, still shrouded in a faint mist, still that dim space, and at the top of the space, there was still a layer of white halos.

Ethan Bolton paused slightly, carefully sensing that layer of white halos, but could no longer feel the devouring transformation of the black hole. However, even though he had only experienced this scene once, it was as if it had been deeply imprinted on his soul—Ethan Bolton couldn't forget even the tiniest detail!

While sensing that layer of white halos, Ethan Bolton immediately felt that within the white halo layer, there was a white crystal, which was clearly a pineal gland-shaped crystal.

"This—this is the third eye! It seems I've opened the third eye. This ability must be what comes from opening the third eye!"

Ethan Bolton quickly calmed down. When he first started practicing for fun, he hadn't held out much hope, treating it all with a normal heart. Because in life, Ethan Bolton had always maintained a mindset of being indifferent to fame and fortune, calm and far-sighted, unflappable in the face of change, and steady in demeanor. Plus, his mental state was always a bit off, so when bored, he often spent time practicing this. Unexpectedly, by accident, he had truly opened the third eye!

With this, his world had completely changed!

He understood very well in his heart that this feeling had actually already appeared a month ago. At that time, though he was ordinary and unremarkable, he had developed the aura of a strong person and an inexplicable confidence, as well as a sharper mind and better analytical and reaction abilities, making him even more confident in life.

His temperament and bearing also became more composed.

However, precisely because of this, he also sensed his wife's change of heart. Even though, due to his father's wishes, the two of them had married at twenty-four, now he was only twenty-five!

Sensing the display of the single ring of the white crystal, Ethan Bolton calculated the changes in the crystal's color from before. It was obvious that this black hole devouring evolution should be able to grow!

The white halo, after reaching ten rings, would undergo a qualitative change in the white crystal, evolving into green. Then, after ten green rings, it would enter ten blue rings, then ten purple rings, and finally ten golden rings.
