Eye of the Dark Realm
The Eye of the Dark Realm is the Tribulation treasure most desired by Demon Sage Nine Abyss. Bestowed for the attack on Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue, it manifests as a dark-red eye and creates the Dark-Red Prison, a miniature world that traps enemies while amplifying its wielder with World Power.
History
An ideal treasure turns an ambush into a sealed world
The demon Imperial Lords lend Nine Abyss the treasure because Meng Chuan has become too dangerous to leave alive. When the eye opens at his glabella, the surrounding world turns dark red and condenses into a sealed miniature world around the targets. Archean Mountain recognizes the resulting Dark-Red Prison as a famous demon treasure specialized in capture and as an unusually strong match for Nine Abyss Land. (Chapters 400–401)
Inside the prison, Nine Abyss uses its World Power to magnify his attacks and shrinks the enclosure to force close combat. Meng Chuan's Bloodblades cannot pierce the living inner membrane, but repeated Magic Awl strikes injure Nine Abyss's Essence Soul and undermine his control. After Liu Qiyue's arrows threaten his life, he dismisses the prison and flees; no destruction, capture, or transfer of the Eye is shown. (Chapters 401–404)
Abilities and properties
The Eye creates the Dark-Red Prison as an enclosed world with its own membrane. At full expansion during the ambush, the prison spans about five kilometers; Nine Abyss can compress it to roughly one and a half kilometers, reducing the room available for fast opponents to evade him. The membrane includes a tough, tendon-like inner layer that resists direct Bloodblade penetration. (Chapters 400–402)
World Power gathers around the wielder inside the prison, forms a dark-red robe, and increases Nine Abyss's strength severalfold. He can concentrate the prison's power into a strike, bringing a forbidden-spell attack close to the threshold of an Imperial Lord. These benefits fit his Nine Abyss Land technique and make the treasure more effective in his hands than an unrelated weapon would be. (Chapters 400–403)
The prison captures and empowers but does not protect the wielder from every attack made inside it. Essence Soul damage leaves Nine Abyss unable to control intricate techniques, and severe injury makes another full-power strike impractical. The enclosure persists only while he maintains it; he dissipates it to escape, and the Eye's later custody is not separately restated. (Chapters 402–404)
