The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

The giant of the Time Realm, the invincible incarnation of the Crimson King, vanished just like that.

This result left the mysterious woman and Shi Hao utterly shocked.

That was an unparalleled being who sat cross-legged before the ages, gazing into the future, yet it was annihilated so easily. What kind of being was this being downstream of the river of time? What was its origin? Why was it so powerful? Moreover, it was related to Shi Yi and Shi Hao, shielding them from this calamity.

"A being with vertical pupils... who could it be? The Three-Eyed Clan? Impossible." Inside the pavilion, Shi Hao was filled with doubt. He had thought the creature that made the move would be Liu Shen, but he hadn't expected it to be a strange being with terrifying vertical pupils.

He also felt a sense of relief. If that king-like being had come from ancient times and no one had intervened, then he would have been left with nothing for eternity.

"It should be over. His avatar was destroyed, and he should know what terrible consequences would come if he continued to act." The woman sighed, feeling that Shi Yi and Shi Hao, these two extraordinary beings, were saved. Even if the Crimson King only used his avatar and was destroyed, he would pay a heavy price. As for using his true body, she felt that the Crimson King would not dare to do so.

However, Shi Yi shook his head. He knew how confident and arrogant the Crimson King was when the Immortal Ancient Era had just ended. As the victor of the Era War, he could not swallow this insult, and the alien kings behind him would not agree either.

"Roar!"

Countless ages ago, when the Immortal Ancient Era came to an end and everything had settled down, neither the victors nor the vanquished could understand why such a deep, muffled roar could be heard in the world.

A gasp of surprise rang out from within a magnificent, ancient palace.

There stood one statue after another, one of which had a crack in its brow, from which blood oozed.

"My God, an adult's statue has cracked! What happened?"

This happened thousands of years ago, not recorded in history books, and naturally unknown to future generations, but it did indeed happen.

"Red King!"

A king from another realm looked at the blood-soaked figure in the formation and couldn't help but speak.

Interfering with the future has brought about this great calamity. If we do not stop in time, there may be even greater backlash.

The alien kings, who were responsible for supporting the Crimson King and jointly divination of the future, were alarmed, fearing that the Crimson King might perish. This would be an extremely heavy blow to the alien realm, which had just fought a great battle and lost many immortal kings. This was a ferocious giant, and it was unknown how many eras of accumulation it would take for such a figure to appear.

"Stop now. It's not too late to make a move when time has passed and we reach that era," someone advised.

"By reversing the flow of time, we are forcibly altering the cause and effect of destiny, which will inevitably backfire. After today, we will all forget this matter until that being rises."

"Now is the best opportunity to deal with those two creatures. I want to kill them along with the owner of that gaze downstream. Only in this way can we solve the problem once and for all." The Crimson King said unwillingly.

Upon hearing this, the foreign kings sitting around him also realized the seriousness of the matter. The failure to eliminate the fish seemed to foreshadow something.

"Use that thing. Even if the opponent is a supreme giant, they should have difficulty resisting it," a towering figure said.

"That's exactly what I was thinking." The Crimson King's eyes flashed, filled with murderous intent, and a terrifying scene of the collapse of all the heavens and myriad worlds appeared, making people shudder.

The next moment, he sat cross-legged in an ancient temple, where all the kings arrived and chanted scriptures with him.

Upstream in the river of time, the figure of the Crimson King reappeared, this time not as an avatar, but in his true form.

This terrifying scene shocked the woman; she hadn't expected the Crimson King to be so persistent, daring to use his true form.

However, this time the Crimson King did not traverse the river of time. He sat cross-legged in the ancient temple, constantly chanting ancient scriptures and summoning the shadowy figure from the ancient artifact of origin.

Soon, a large patch of black mist spread out, filling every inch of space around the Crimson King, and spreading downstream along the River of Time. It was so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face.

At that very moment, without a sound, a huge black shadow rose from the ground behind the Crimson King, standing tall in the vast sky, seemingly about to break through the eternal space and time.

The shadowy figure was enormous, beyond imagination. The vast galaxy seemed insignificant compared to it, not even a speck of dust. Compared to the Crimson King sitting cross-legged in the temple, it was truly tiny and insignificant.

An indescribable sense of oppression swept across the past, present, and future. Shi Yi, the mysterious woman, and Shi Hao all felt a tightness in their chests, as if someone had gripped their fate by the throat, making it difficult to breathe.

This was only one; soon, a second one also took shape, equally enormous and even more solid than the first.

At this moment, the first dark figure broke away from the temple and traveled downstream along the river of time, charging towards them.

Its primary target was Shi Yi and Shi Hao. The reason why the Crimson King paid such a heavy price was to kill the two of them, so naturally he would not give up halfway.

The chaotic mist downstream had not yet dissipated, and the vertical eye reappeared, blinking. Each blink marked the birth and death of an era, the withering of all things, and the beginning of chaos... It was extremely terrifying.

The owner of the eyes has not yet appeared; he simply stares at everything with his eyes open.

As the first massive black shadow was about to strike, a beam of light shot out from the vertical eye once more, sweeping away the dark haze and cutting across every different historical sky.

"Boom!"

With a soft sound, the first dark figure froze, standing there motionless, its head crumbling and disintegrating all the way down to its feet.

The terrifying black shadow, capable of overturning the past, present, and future, collapsed just like that. What was most terrifying was that the one who made the move was the same as before, just a glint of light.

"how is this possible?"

The Crimson King, seated in the ancient temple, was truly shocked. He knew that they had used an ancient artifact of origin, which would have destroyed even a Celestial King, yet they couldn't withstand the gaze of the other party. It was truly unimaginable.

The kings of the foreign lands were also shocked. Would there really be such a terrifying being as an enemy of the foreign lands in the future?

Thinking of this, their joy as victors was immediately overshadowed.

"I don't believe he can stay this relaxed forever. He must have paid a terrible price that we can't even imagine." The Crimson King roared in disbelief, a sentiment echoed by the other kings from other realms.

The ancient artifacts are something that all the kings of foreign lands fear. How could we possibly return empty-handed?

Soon, a second black shadow materialized and charged toward the future once more, while an even more solid third black shadow appeared at the same moment.

Downstream from the river, beyond the chaotic mist, awaited them a cold and merciless gaze. This beam of light was even more astonishing than all the previous beams combined, almost severing an entire ancient history.

The shadowy figures, the Crimson King, the ancient temples... all were submerged. A colossal wave surged across the river of time, affecting countless tributaries and causing them to disappear. At the same time, many new tributaries were born, and much of the established history was impacted and rewritten because of this battle.

What Shi Yi, Shi Hao, and the mysterious woman saw also became hazy and blurry, and they could no longer see clearly.

They heard only a mournful cry that echoed through the ages, passed down from prehistoric times.

Then, a chaotic mist flowed in, permeating the era and making everything unpredictable and impossible to deduce. Even the giants among the immortal kings could not fathom the mysteries of this era.

"What a powerful being! This era is in complete chaos. You and that young being are safe now. No one can predict your future anymore and will be able to erase you across time and space," the woman said in shock.

Shi Yi was not surprised by this result; those who defy the passage of time will eventually be devoured by it.

The Crimson King's attempt to take advantage of him and Shi Hao has undoubtedly backfired, and his fate will certainly not be good; he only has himself to blame.

In contrast, Shi Hao thought much more deeply. Would a being with vertical eyes truly reign supreme in the future, overlooking the past and present? Was that king-like man dead or still alive? This causal relationship likely hadn't ended there; it might continue…

As time flows on, countless figures shine brightly, yet all are but fleeting moments, like the flowing waters of the east, vanishing and disappearing forever.

This inevitably leaves one feeling lost and lamenting the ruthlessness of time.

Soon after, all the sights disappeared.

"You should leave now. This pot of wine is the result of countless ages of sedimentation. There is only one pot. Once it's finished, it's gone. It wasn't prepared just for you. You've had enough. Leave the rest for those who come after you."

The mysterious woman spoke, saying this.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi stopped what he was doing, placed the pot back on the stone table, and then closed his eyes to savor the moment.

The woman gradually blurred, turning into a series of runes that were imprinted on the tabletop, her true form becoming nothingness.

Then, a line of words from the Immortal Ancient Era appeared on the desktop, roughly meaning: to be left for the destined one.

Shi Yi drank quite a bit during his visit, and soon after, Shi Hao would also visit and drink quite a bit as well. The two of them together drank more than half a pot, leaving little for future generations.

Who knows if, after countless ages, a prodigy will emerge and come to this place to drink in the ancient immortals.

After the great calamity was over, Shi Yi felt much more relaxed, as if a shackle had been removed.

It's time to leave eventually.

As he was thinking this, he heard the call of the Wheel of Reincarnation, which came from afar and grew clearer.

The next moment, a black hole appeared in front of him, emanating the power of reincarnation, like the entrance to the land of reincarnation.

Shi Yi knew that this was the work of the Wheel of Reincarnation, so he stepped in without hesitation.

In an instant, Shi Yi woke up to find himself lying on the ground, the Reincarnation Disc still sealed in his right wrist, and the Three Stone Heavenly Lords had already returned from the other side of the Ascension Platform.

"Brother Kong, are you alright? I saw you lying unconscious on the Ascension Platform, so I brought you down." The Three Stones Heavenly Lord looked relieved, but his eyes made no attempt to hide his worry for Shi Yi's condition.

"I'm fine," Shi Yi replied with a smile.

Then, he looked at the Three Stone Heavenly Lord and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, the Three Stones Heavenly Lord was truly powerful, far more powerful than before ascending the Ascension Platform. He had undergone a qualitative change, and it was unknown what kind of heaven-defying opportunity he had obtained.

"Fellow Daoist Sanshi, congratulations! Today you have broken through your shackles, and the future is bright." Shi Yi said, offering his congratulations.

Upon hearing this, the Three Stones Heavenly Lord couldn't help but show his joy. Just as Shi Yi had said, he finally understood which path he should take. This was an invincible path leading to the Heavenly Palace.

He didn't hide anything and told Shi Yi directly.

After all, the great opportunity we received this time was thanks to Shi Yi's appearance. Compared to that, the little bit of immortal energy in the Immortal Well was nothing and not worth mentioning.

"Throughout history, the path of our Celestial Race has been fixed and dead-end. We must fuse with the Destiny Stone to undergo the most perfect transformation of life and reach the realm of celestial beings from humans."

In the ancient times, six celestial beings emerged, all reaching the realm of "heaven," propelling the celestial race to an extremely brilliant peak and placing them among the ten royal families of the three thousand Dao states.

Later generations of Celestial beings regarded this as a guiding principle and followed this path.

Back then, I fused three Destiny Stones and underwent three extreme transformations to reach the pinnacle of the "Heaven" realm. However, I discovered that I was trapped within the "Heaven" realm and could not escape.

Only now have I come to understand the true meaning: from man to heaven, from heaven to earth, and from earth to man.

There are not only Destiny Stones in the world, but also Destiny Grasses and Human Essence Fruits. I obtained three plants and three fruits of the latter two, which correspond exactly to the Destiny Stones I used before.

Only by encompassing the nine realms of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity can one truly understand the myriad aspects of the universe and comprehend its myriad workings.

"I see. Now we shouldn't call you Fellow Daoist Sanshi anymore, but Fellow Daoist Jiuming. People should call you Lord Jiuming." Shi Yi congratulated him.

Lord San Shi shook his head, claiming that he had not yet reached that level, as he still had a Destiny Grass and a Human Essence Fruit that he had not used.

“That is the Seven Lives Heavenly Lord,” Shi Yi replied.

San Shi stopped being modest. He had indeed undergone a qualitative transformation and forged his own path, which was a groundbreaking feat for the Celestial Race.

Currently, only Shi Yi and San Shi know this. However, the Immortal Ancient Flower bud is about to bloom, and the Heavenly Lord San Shi is destined to shine with unparalleled brilliance, shaking the world.

He and Shi Yi were partners in the Immortal Ancient Ruins, but they became competitors in the Immortal Ancient Flower Bud. Although they didn't bring up the topic, they both understood this.

This excited Shi Yi. The Nine Lives Heavenly Monarch was absolutely powerful, surpassing the ancient freaks and able to rank among the strongest geniuses. At that time, the competition among the strongest geniuses would be even more brilliant.

"We don't know how long this trip has taken. Let's go back as soon as possible, lest we miss the journey to the Immortal Ancient Realm," said Lord San Shi.

Shi Yi nodded. He had already learned about the time through the Reincarnation Disc, and the journey to the Immortal Ancient Realm was indeed not far off.

The two turned away from the Ascension Platform and began their journey home.

Upon arriving once again in the forbidden area shrouded in black mist, the Wheel of Reincarnation informed them that the dark creature had been restricted and had fallen back into slumber; even if it were disturbed, it could only unleash one attack at most.

The two then set off, with the Reincarnation Disc controlling the Exquisite Heavenly Tower, and passed through the black mist without any major incidents.

They followed the path they had come from, arriving at an area where spatial power was weak, and burst out of the ancient ruins.
