The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

As early as when the double pupils awakened a divine ability similar to telepathy, methods for attacking with the primordial spirit were already developed, but they were not yet mature at that time.

Now, with the improvement of his pupil power, his primordial spirit's offensive power is gradually taking shape.

Especially at this moment, Shi Yi's primordial spirit power is terrifyingly strong. Having undergone countless trials in the dark prison, with just one glance, a divine sense blade shoots out, slaying people invisibly.

With a wave of his hand, he pocketed the resources from the corpses.

Unexpectedly, they had a lot of good stuff in their hands, including piles of holy medicines, clearly indicating they were professional robbers.

Since ancient times, double-crossing has been the fastest way to make money, and Shi Yi has experienced this firsthand.

He put away his resources and continued moving in one direction.

According to the layout of the sacred land surrounding the evil nest, it should be a ring. Once you walk around it, all the treasure lands you saw earlier will appear one by one.

Shi Yi's idea was correct. After traversing more than a dozen continents, he finally saw the lake of spiritual liquid.

During this period, he encountered acts of plunder more than once. He showed no mercy to them, directly killing those creatures and seizing their cultivation resources.

Along the way, Shi Yi made amazing gains, much faster than he would have made by searching for treasure on his own.

However, he did not actively rob others; those creatures came to him on their own.

Looking at the sacred spirit lake brimming with spiritual energy, Shi Yi smiled. Even before entering, he had seen this world from afar and spotted many fish with phoenix tails swimming in the spirit lake.

This creature possesses an astonishingly rich life force, something that those religious leaders in the outside world, whose lives are dwindling, crave most.

Shi Yi also needs it, as his tribulation is quite long and requires a lot of life force to sustain him.

Even the best medicines and miracle drugs will inevitably have reduced effectiveness when taken in large quantities.

These anchovies can fill the gaps in the fishing season, making them exceptionally valuable.

With that thought in mind, Shi Yi stopped and headed towards the Spirit Lake.

During this process, he had already sensed the hidden danger with his Taiyin Double Pupil. Despite the sacred and peaceful appearance of the Spirit Lake, it actually concealed a mysterious secret and was surrounded by a terrifying killing array.

If one goes astray, chaotic killing light will burst forth, annihilating all living beings. Then, all the flesh and divine energy will be absorbed by the killing array to nourish the spirit lake.

Shi Yi wasn't the only one who came to this realm. He saw five or six others who wanted to go to the Spirit Lake to catch fish, including one of the first generation.

However, a moment later, these beings all met with a terrible calamity, engulfed by the sudden surge of chaotic killing light, letting out a scream before falling silent.

In just a few breaths, their corpses became nourishment for the killing formation and the spirit lake.

Shi Yi calmly watched all of this. From his perspective, the chaotic killing array beneath his feet was completely exposed, and every pattern was clearly visible.

That's why he could walk on flat ground in the killing formation.

Later creatures that witnessed this scene tried to emulate it, following in Shi Yi's footsteps, but they lost their lives in an instant.

"The killing formation is constantly changing. Who is that person? They're almost at the lakeside, yet they haven't triggered the killing formation even once." The cultivators in the distance hesitated, watching helplessly as Shi Yi reached the edge of the Spirit Lake.

“I understand. He is Shi Yi, the master of the Pupil Sect—the one with double pupils. Although the killing formation is terrifying and difficult to defend against, it cannot escape the double pupils.” Someone spoke up, recognizing Shi Yi’s identity.

"hiss!"

Everyone gasped in shock. The Master of the Pupil Sect? The legendary first person in the ancient immortal realm to cultivate immortal energy? No wonder he could pass through the Chaos Killing Array so easily.

Shi Yi had already reached the shore. The spiritual energy here was so rich that it condensed into lake water, rippling there, it was simply like a fairyland.

In the lake, the anchovies swam carefree, their feathers dazzling. Just looking at their tails, they resembled colorful phoenixes, and one could sense the immense vitality within them even through the water.

If one were to eat one when life was nearing its end, it would surely bring them back to life.

Shi Yi's face lit up with joy. This was a rare find for him, and this trip had been worthwhile.

Then, under the envious gazes of many cultivators, Shi Yi began fishing.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go down into the lake to fish for them, but rather that there were killing array patterns flashing on the lake's surface, meaning that the only way to get the phoenix tail fish was by fishing.

He used his magic as a fishing rod and line, and the True Phoenix Treasure Technique as bait, and gently cast it towards the lake. A lifelike, five-colored True Phoenix fell into the lake and swam nimbly within it.

The moment the aura of the Ten Fierce Phoenixes spread, the entire Spirit Lake erupted in commotion.

For these phoenix-tailed fish with the tail feathers of a true phoenix, what could be more alluring than the scent of a true phoenix?
They all want to devour the aura of the true phoenix and then evolve further; having only a phoenix tail is not enough to escape this spiritual lake.

Driven by instinct, the anchovies closest to the bait darted over like lightning and bit the hook.

Shi Yi felt a slight weight on his arm, and he immediately used his strength to lift a huge anchovy and throw it into his own chaotic little world.

He then cast the bait again.

This time, there was no waiting either; fish immediately took the bait. The allure of the True Phoenix Treasure Technique was simply too great for the phoenix-tailed fish, triggering their instinct to chase.

In this way, Shi Yi kept catching fish, and in a very short time, he caught more than thirty.

"This……"

The cultivators in the distance stared in disbelief, drooling with envy.

As time went by, the number of anchovies in Linghu Lake decreased sharply, and it soon became empty.

Shi Yi's frequency of swinging the cue gradually slowed down, and it took a full hour for the last shot to come into play.

This is a phoenix-tailed fish king. Not only is its tail feathered, but part of its body has also evolved into feathers, making it dazzling and extremely precious.

"My God, the King of the Phoenix Fish has an effect comparable to a whole divine herb."

The cultivators were shocked when they saw the King of the Phoenix Fish being pulled out of the lake.

The medicinal effects are comparable to an entire miraculous herb. What does that mean? It's like swallowing the entire root system of the miraculous herb to justify the value of this fish.

However, generally speaking, cultivators would not do this; they would only pluck a leaf or a divine fruit.

Swallowing the entire medicinal plant directly is like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs; leaving it, however, will yield a continuous stream of results.

Putting away the King of the Phoenix, Shi Yi turned his gaze to his own chaotic little world, where a pond brimming with vital energy had been created, radiating brilliant multicolored light, with a large number of Phoenixes swimming in it.

He smiled with satisfaction. He had come to the right place this time, as he had made such a gain.

Having confirmed that there were no more opportunities within the Spirit Lake, Shi Yi withdrew. The chaotic killing array that terrified other cultivators was left to his own devices; he strolled leisurely, each step a path to survival.

In the blink of an eye, Shi Yi left the area of ​​the Chaos Killing Array and continued on to the next world.

The monks who were watching saw him leave, and no one dared to stop him.

Next, Shi Yi continued to traverse this circular area, intending to visit all the sacred sites within it before entering the haunted nest.

Besides this sacred lake teeming with anchovies, there is also a celestial palace floating on the river of life, and an astonishingly large forest of divine fruits—all rare and precious places not to be missed.

Soon, Shi Yi arrived in a silent world. It was very quiet here, without a single sound, unlike the endless noise of other worlds.

His gaze swept across the land, where he saw the winding river of life flowing through the earth. Instantly, Shi Yi knew where he was.

It was the same River of Life he had seen earlier, and above it floated a magnificent celestial palace, seemingly eternal.

Shi Yi strode forward, approaching the long river, wanting to enter the celestial palace and find out more.

However, he hadn't gone far when he realized something was wrong. A special law permeated the void of this realm, capable of devouring the life force of living beings invisibly, drawing it into the earth, and surging towards that long river.

That's why this world looks somewhat desolate and lifeless; all the vitality flows into the long river.

Shi Yi activated the Divine Ring of the Cave Heaven, and the Forbidden Sea of ​​Bitterness above his head unleashed its immense power, impervious to all magic, protecting his entire body and isolating him from that power.

“No wonder no one comes to this realm.” He couldn’t help but sigh.

The closer one gets to the River of Life, the faster one's life force dissipates. In the later stages, the feeling of life fading away is enough to make one's heart tremble.

Fortunately, Shi Yi was fearless, as he was empowered by the power of the Forbidden Sea of ​​Bitterness, and that kind of rule power could not affect him.

He walked alone towards the river of life and soon arrived at the riverbank. Not far from the riverbank, Shi Yi saw piles of corpses and bones, most of them weathered and drained of their last bit of life force.

Just then, a booming Daoist voice came and entered Shi Yi's ears, like a great bell being struck, which was deafening.

Shi Yi looked towards the source of the sound and immediately saw an ancient palace floating on the river of life, rising and falling there.

The sound of the Dao resounded loudly, as if someone were sitting cross-legged in a palace chanting scriptures.

Without hesitation, Shi Yi used the Qilin Step, his feet covered in purple patterns, and quickly caught up with the departing Dao Palace.

The next moment, his feet touched the ground, and he stood on the palace floor.

Upon ascending to the Dao Palace, the chanting grew even louder, and at the same time, the laws that plundered life force became even more terrifying. If Shi Yi hadn't had a way to deal with it, he would probably have turned to ashes in an instant.

Following the sound of the Dao, he stepped into the palace. With just one glance, Shi Yi could tell that someone lived there, not in ancient times, but recently.

Immediately, Shi Yi became alert.

However, after searching, he found no living creatures or any opportunities, as the place had already been visited.

Shi Yi was not discouraged. He listened carefully to the grand sounds emanating from the palace, which seemed to be telling the story of the Great Way of Life.

He listened intently and soon became engrossed in a deep state of enlightenment.

Soon, Shi Yi slowly woke up and understood the significance of this Dao Palace, which was related to the Heavenly Horned Ants.

This race is known as the ultimate in strength. Among the Ten Fiends, the strongest being is the Heavenly Horned Ant. The prerequisite for the ultimate in strength is blood and qi, which is the power of life.

The race's innate divine art—Berserk—relies on its immense life force.

The brief enlightenment allowed Shi Yi to benefit greatly from the Dao of Life, and he also gained a deeper understanding of this Dao Palace.

A suspicious area discovered during the previous search of the Dao Palace was also resolved.

Shi Yi strolled along and came to a stone wall. Returning to this place, he tried to interpret it through the lens of the philosophy of life.

Symbols flew from his hand and were imprinted into the wall. Instantly, patterns appeared, emitting a brilliant light.

Shi Yi activated his Taiyin Double Pupil and continuously analyzed the situation. It took a full hour for the wall to change.

"Boom!"

The outline of a stone gate appeared, and then it burst open with a roar.

Shi Yi's expression shifted. Sure enough, there was another world here. He first scanned the space behind the stone door and found no living beings before entering. An extremely rich life force rushed towards him. Just one breath made him feel comfortable all over.

The next moment, Shi Yi saw a divine lotus rooted in a spring, crystal clear and holy, accompanied by a brilliant divine glow, extremely extraordinary.

"The Lotus of Life!"

Shi Yi was surprised and recognized the origin of this divine lotus. It was a rare and sacred medicine in the world, the Life Lotus, which was on the same level as the Tribulation Lotus.

This divine lotus is not complete; about half of its petals have been plucked off. Clearly, it was used by the being who cultivated here.

"Who is it? A banished immortal?" Shi Yi muttered to himself.

He suspected that he might have inadvertently stumbled into the cultivation grounds of the banished immortal, after all, the banished immortal had long been planning to build the Nest of the Ten Fiends.

Regardless of who he was, Shi Yi found this place through his own strength. The divine object was not named, and it was meant to be obtained by the destined one. Therefore, he did not hesitate to transplant the Life Lotus from the spring into his own Chaos Small World.

After doing all this, he searched around again, but found nothing.

He guessed that the other party left the divine lotus here because the growing environment was suitable, and at the same time, they did not believe that any living being could enter the palace alive.

This trip was unexpected for Shi Yi. He had thought that this magnificent Taoist palace would have an extraordinary inheritance, but things did not go as planned.

However, the Life Lotus with half a petal is also a good gain, which will greatly benefit his subsequent cultivation.

Soon after, Shi Yi left the palace and continued traveling in one direction.

After crossing more than a dozen landmasses, he arrived at a forest of divine fruits.

Here, the sacred atmosphere is incredibly strong. One after another, the sacred trees stand tall, all very tall, ancient and vigorous, with trunks as white as jade, even the cracked old bark is the same, bright white and lustrous.

The leaves are a vibrant green, radiating a brilliant auspicious glow. Among the leaves hang divine fruits, like the sun itself, emanating a delicate fragrance that permeates the outside world through the light barrier, refreshing the soul.

The divine fruit was about the size of a baby's fist, very small, but incomparably sacred. It looked crystal clear and was shaped like a human figure. Its colors varied, some were golden, some were blood red, some were snow white, and some shimmered with purple light.
