God Slayer Chronicles 63 Sacred Eyes

"I cultivate my body primarily; I'm already at the Stone Body level." Sha Ku replied, as his eyes flashed, easily able to pierce the darkness.

The person holding the sabre to his throat was tall and lean. Slim and graceful. His long hair was black, tied back in a ponytail. His robes were a deep blue. He was obviously from Righteous Hall. In fact, he was somebody that he had observed earlier – Liu Bei.

"Hmm, Liu Bei, a man that claims to be from an origin of supreme righteousness yet holds his sharp blade to a child's throat just because he cultivates his body." Sha Ku chuckled; this Liu Bei reminded him of someone he met when he was an actual child… so long ago.

"Don't speak with a forked tongue to me!" Liu Bei snapped back.

"We both know that body cultivators cannot heal that quickly, even if they are all the way at the Golden Body Stage!" Liu Bei continued, "Yet, you, a mere child, are able to heal within a moment. Not only that, your entire aura is filled with that of a killer I've never seen before!"

"You can see my aura?" Sha Ku looked up; indeed, he was surprised. A lower plain was able to spit up someone so talented.

"Tell me, why shouldn't I remove your head from your shoulders right now, demon?" Liu Bei ignored his question.

Sha Ku was shocked; his mouth parted a little. Yet no sweat appeared on his brow.

"Liu Bei, I think we both know I'm not a demon. You're a man that follows his Dao Heart, to the bitter end. You'd kill a king and risk the wrath of a thousand swords if he were to harm those that are innocent. You seek and destroy practitioners of the devil path, those that cultivate evil karma. You wouldn't have let me live even until now if you weren't sure, sure of what? Well, that I'm not entirely evil. You can see my karma and aura, right? You have the holy eyes of, Guan Yu, Lord of War and Righteousness. A rare ability, even where I'm from." Sha Ku spoke firm, full of confidence and fury.

"Look further into my aura, beyond the sea of red. What do you see?" Sha Ku continued.

Liu Bei's eyes that were entirely bright blue started to twitch, going deep into Sha Ku's aura. Diving deep within after the red there was purple, then a deep and holy gold. But deep within, at the bottom of the pit, it was different.

It was white, pure and innocent. Yet, it was stained with black, like a piece of paper, which was scribbled over.

It wasn't just scribbles; they started to make some sense at least.

Cough!

Blood flew out of Liu Bei's mouth as he collapsed onto his back, dropping his sabre on the ground. His eyes were back to normal, his pupils and irises had reappeared.

Looking up, he saw Sha Ku, his hands behind his back, a smile on his face, "Interesting, I've only met one person with Sacred Eyes before. You're… different, to say the least."

"Who are you?" he asked.

"Now, isn't that a complicated question." Sha Ku's eyes looked upwards; a deep sigh emerged from his lips.

"I guess a know-it-all, that's it. You can find out for yourself when you've managed to master your Sacred Eyes." Sha Ku chuckled to himself.

"How do you know about them?!" Liu Bei frowned; his tone fierce. His father had told him to keep his eyes a secret, even from his brothers, let alone some stranger.

"I told you already, Liu Bei, I'm a know-it-all. But you may refer to me as Sha Ku." Sha Ku started to smile to himself, walking the young man lying in front of him in circles.

Extending out his hand, he helped Liu Bei from the floor.

"You're from Demonic Peak, are you not?" Liu Bei suddenly spoke.

"Yes, was it that obvious?" Sha Ku said in a snarky tone, handing Liu Bei back his blade.

"It's just people from Demonic Peak are usually…"

"Demonic, ravenous, destroyers of all who get in their objective path?" Sha Ku finished his sentence.

"Yes, to say the least." Liu Bei spoke again.

"Don't worry, as you can tell, I'm young and am only from the lower mountain. I also haven't cultivated any demonic techniques just yet." Sha Ku laughed to himself.

Demonic Peak was indeed a dangerous place; it got its name for a reason. They don't call it fairy peak after all. One has to become a demon, embrace their inner darkness, or they'll be devoured. This is why although the least numerous it has the most dangerous of any disciples.

"Why are you out here? A child-disciple from a lower peak, you should know that this forest is filled with terrors far above the 5th Rank." Liu Bei spoke, warning the young child as he sheathed the sabre once again.

"Oh, such as." Sha Ku started to pat himself down, brushing off any dirt on his clothes. The two began to stroll out of the depths of the forest briskly; at this pace, it would take more than a few hours to leave the Darkspire.

"I don't know. I just know that my father told me not to go into the depths of the forest. He had given me only that piece of advice when I left home… I have heard rumours, though." Lie Bei mum-bled.

"Tell me of these rumours." Sha Ku looked upwards to his left; eyebrow raised.
