Fantasy: I Am the Villain.

Chapter Twelve: The Heavenly Eye

The "third eye" is an eye-like structure located between the eyebrows, which is what later medical circles call the pineal gland.

For a more detailed description, you can refer to figures like Erlang Shen or Wen Zhong. The unconscious Bai Ke is naturally not familiar with such figures.

His face was contorted with bulging veins, his teeth were clenched tightly, and he was drenched in sweat, which was almost soaking his expensive long robe made of silk from thousand-year-old ice silkworms.

A terrifying eye-like object protruded from between his eyebrows, slowly emerging from beneath his flesh, creating a gruesome scene.

It is possible that those who do not cultivate their own third eye must inevitably experience such setbacks, as discovered through careful research.

Since Bai Ke's transmigration, all of his cheat abilities, including fusing with the Fire Dragon's essence, storage rings, and even the Heavenly Eye this time, have basically experienced setbacks.

It might involve unbearable pain and hardship, or tedious tasks. In short, nothing is ever truly easy or effortless.

The system's meaning is quite clear: it contains all sorts of opportunities, both imaginable and unimaginable. Whether you can seize them depends on your own abilities.

Being a villain is inherently difficult; one has to bear pressure from all sides and also face the protagonist's overwhelming aura.

To defy fate and traverse the heavens, one must always pay a higher price.

Otherwise, if everyone shouts "My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens," then what's the point of having a system for life? We might as well just let everyone drift along.

So that's how the Multiverse Villain System came about, and that's also the original intention behind Tencent's design of this game:

When the public gets tired of the stereotypical, righteous, and perfect protagonist, why not try experiencing the life of a villain from a different perspective?

By understanding their words and actions, we can indirectly guide people to adopt a positive attitude towards life.

After all, unless there is absolutely no other way, no one would choose to be a rat that everyone hates.

Experiencing the villain's behavior and thought process will likely help many people reflect on whether sometimes a different approach can be more effective...

And speaking of which, I'd like to mention something.

In fact, the things extracted by the Villain System of All Realms are not necessarily all from the villains. Some of them are even well-known divine skills and secret techniques.

Everything has two opposing sides; there is no absolute justice or evil. After all, your hero is my enemy.

You may regard him as a peerless hero worshipped for generations and sung about by thousands, but in our eyes, he is a butcher of the living who vomits human flesh and thirsts for human blood.

Therefore, the things provided by this All-Worlds Villain System are truly all-encompassing, and small items like the Heavenly Eye are even less worth mentioning.

However, for Bai Ke, who had just gained a foothold in the other world, this was nothing short of a gift from heaven.

After all, all it takes is chatting, flirting, and dating to get a free seven-day trip to a martial arts world, fulfilling my childhood dream of becoming a chivalrous hero, and even obtaining a legendary "Heavenly Eye." It couldn't be more exciting...

Bai Ke woke up groggily, feeling a tingling sensation between his eyebrows. He subconsciously reached out to touch it, only to find something fleshy.

He also felt as if something had poked his eye, and a stinging sensation made Bai Ke want to cry.

"Strange, I didn't feel anything poke my eye," Bai Ke muttered as he waved his hand and cast a Water Mirror spell.

He was now more curious about what that fleshy, diamond-shaped object on his forehead was...

"A ghost..." Bai Ke's exclamation nearly scared Ah Can, who was guarding the door, to death. He quickly asked what had happened.

"Cough cough... It's alright, Ah Chan. I just had a nightmare. I'm fine now. You can continue guarding the place. Remember, don't let anyone in without my permission."

Bai Ke coughed awkwardly twice, then gave a command in a pretentious manner.

"Yes, young master," Ah Can scratched his head, puzzled. "Do cultivators in the Nascent Soul Realm have nightmares? Why are you acting so strangely, young master?"

Unable to figure it out, Ah-Can chose to put the problem out of his mind. Problems he couldn't understand shouldn't be thought about. That was for the smart people; he only needed to follow the young master's orders!

Inside the room, Bai Ke stared at his reflection in the water mirror, still shaken by the sight of three blinking eyes. He touched the outline of his third eye between his eyebrows with his left hand, muttering to himself:

"This thing must be that 'Heavenly Eye' thing... It really does look like it. Now we have three eyes, just like Erlang Shen, hehehe..."

I don't know what it's for. Is there a user manual for this system?

"Ding! This Heavenly Eye was randomly selected by the system based on the host's needs. Please explore the specific instructions and operating techniques on your own. Enjoy using it!"

"..."

"..."

"I'll give you a piece of my mind! You lousy system! Bad review! I'm giving you a bad review!" Bai Ke, filled with righteous indignation, angrily protested against the utterly heartless system.

"What kind of broken after-sales service is this? Can't you have any integrity at all? I'll accept the pain of the integration process; no pain, no gain!"

"How the hell am I supposed to be superior when they don't even tell me how to use this?"

"Huh? Do you want me to compete with someone to see who has more eyeballs? Or who has more eyeballs on their forehead?"

Thinking about his future life, Bai Ke felt a wave of pain in his body; this damn system was really a rip-off.

However, faced with Bai Ke's tearful and relentless accusations, the system remained unmoved, treating it as nothing.

This fully demonstrates the advantage of a qualified artificial intelligence system having an infinitely thick skin, which made Bai Ke so angry that he almost cursed and nearly blurted out a classic Chinese curse.

Left with no other choice, Bai Ke had to calm down and study his own Heavenly Eye.

There's no way around it. Not being able to use it is a small matter, but not being able to take it back is a big problem! Bai Ke doesn't want to parade around with three eyes on him every day.

Not only would people stare at him like he's an animal in a zoo, but he might also scare away Xin'er, whom he just won over. That would be a huge loss...

Bai Ke sat on the jade bed, trying hard to calm himself down. He tentatively tried to close his eyes little by little.

But after closing his two physical eyes, his third eye became completely unresponsive, like some arrogant and annoying system.

Undeterred, Bai Ke tentatively channeled some more spiritual energy into the room, and this time, something extraordinary happened. The world before Bai Ke's eyes completely transformed:

Wisps of white substance drifted before me, floating like willow catkins. "This must be the spiritual energy of heaven and earth..."

Bai Ke reached out to grab a wisp of spiritual energy, but unexpectedly, the spiritual energy completely dissipated and could not be grasped by Bai Ke.

"Hmm, this can be put to good use. It'll make it easy to spot places with abundant spiritual energy. But this function is still the best."

Bai Ke, thinking of a certain function of his newly discovered "Heavenly Eye," couldn't help but chuckle lewdly...
