The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

"Throughout history, countless beings who coveted the Heavenly God Fruit perished there. Young friend, you have already risen to the rank of God King at such a young age, becoming the number one immortal in ancient times. Your future is limitless. Why take such a perilous risk?"

The old cult leader was puzzled, feeling that Shi Yi, as a God King, already possessed cultivation comparable to a celestial god, and therefore had no need for something like the Celestial God Fruit. It was not worth risking his life for it.

What he didn't know was that Shi Yi's ultimate goal was the Soil of All Things, not the Heavenly Tree. The Heavenly Tree was just a side project, like a signpost on that ancient road.

"Thank you for your concern, senior. I have other plans. Please tell me the coordinates of the Heavenly Tree." Shi Yi replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the old cult leader said nothing more, only sighed, feeling that Shi Yi going alone would lead to serious problems and he might very well perish.

He then provided the coordinates of the location of the Celestial Tree.

"Legend has it that there were originally four Celestial Trees, which were one and were the elixir of immortality. Later, they were forcibly separated and transformed into four divine herbs, namely Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water. The one I know belongs to the Earth element." The old sect leader had eradicated the ancient curse in his body and was in a very good mood, so he spoke a little more.

"Well, thank you, senior."

Shi Yi nodded, then took his leave and fled into the distance.

The old cult leader stood there, watching him leave.

"I've had a really lucky day. I stumbled upon him undergoing the tribulation of a god-king and managed to get some Five-Colored Thunder Tribulation Liquid. Otherwise, resolving the curse would have been a long way off." He muttered to himself, feeling incredibly fortunate today.

Shi Yi flew away at top speed, leaving this realm behind, heading towards the coordinates given by the old sect leader.

Without the specific coordinates, trying to find it by sheer will take an immense amount of effort, and the final result is very likely to be unsatisfactory.

With the Immortal Ancient Realm about to shatter, there was no time to blindly search. Shi Yi used a little bit of Five-Colored Thunder Tribulation Liquid to exchange for the coordinates of that place, which was a great profit.

He headed straight for that place, and soon after, Shi Yi arrived at an ancient site. Looking around, he saw a desolate landscape, a vast Gobi Desert with no vegetation or water sources, and not even the sun could be seen. The entire ancient site was filled with flying sand and stones, and the sun never shone, making it extremely harsh.

The most terrifying thing is that there are countless cracks in the void space, which blow out terrifying gales that can tear apart even a True God Realm cultivator.

Ordinary gods simply couldn't withstand it, but Shi Yi was different. As a god-king, he had undergone the baptism of heavenly tribulation, and his physical body was indestructible. When the gale hit him, it couldn't even leave a mark, as if he were bathed in a spring breeze.

Soon, Shi Yi found the entrance, which was a void black hole, pitch black and incredibly deep.

Shi Yi plunged in and arrived at a strange place. As soon as he entered, a void-shattering slash came at him.

"Ding!"

The terrifying Void Rift Slash struck Shi Yi's body as if it were striking metal or stone, failing to harm him in the slightest.

Shi Yi braved the obstacles and entered an ancient land.

Here, the earth was scorched black, a scene of utter devastation and chaos, permeated with numerous fundamental principles.

As Shi Yi traversed this land, he was sometimes scorched by the sun's fire essence, and sometimes slashed by the terrifying chaotic sword energy, encountering all sorts of dangers.

Finally, he arrived at a raging region, where waterfalls formed by converging lightning streams cascaded down from the sky.

"The aura of heavenly tribulation."

Shi Yi whispered.

Having survived numerous major tribulations, he was extremely sensitive to the energy of heavenly tribulations, and he was certain that these violent lightning bolts were related to them.

In some places, it's just ordinary lightning, but in others, it can attract divine punishment commensurate with a level of power.

For cultivators of the Chaotic Ancient Era, the Heavenly Tribulation was undoubtedly terrifying; no wonder the vast majority of beings who came to this place perished.

However, this meant nothing to Shi Yi, who rushed straight into the Thunderfall area.

When Shi Yi looked down, he discovered a lot of bone powder, belonging to the gods. Without a doubt, this was left behind by those powerful people who coveted the God Fruit and were killed by the Heavenly Tribulation.

Every inch of this space is filled with lightning. Although not all lightning will attract heavenly tribulation, it is almost wishful thinking to try to get through by luck.

With his unparalleled combat power, Shi Yi forced his way through this area spanning thousands of miles. After traveling for a while, he saw a lush and verdant region, but unfortunately, the Celestial Tree was not among them. The journey was then blocked by lightning.

After crossing the minefield and traveling an unknown distance, a majestic mountain finally appeared before them. It was so tall that it seemed to reach the sky, towering above the clouds. An astonishing aura emanated from it, and it was clear at a glance that a sacred medicine was rooted within it.

Shi Yi's eyes lit up, and he flew over to the clouds, looking down at the earth.

He witnessed a delightful scene: an ancient tree took root there, its trunk thick and vigorous like a dragon, its bark resembling dragon scales. It was very tall, its leaves a yellowish-brown color, and when it swayed, they radiated a golden light.

Behind the leaves, many fruits grow, each at a different stage of ripeness. Some are green and just emerging, while others are ripe golden yellow fruits, crystal clear, shining brightly, and radiating a sacred halo, like the sun.

Having found his target, Shi Yi stepped closer, and the aura unique to the gods became increasingly intense, with a misty current flowing through him.

"Young man, you are very lucky to have made it this far."

Suddenly, the old tree spoke, and unlike ordinary divine medicines, it possessed extraordinary wisdom.

"Shi Yi greets senior."

Shi Yi spoke up in response.

"I never expected that you would be so young and already close to being a god, unlike me, who has been cultivating for countless years without being able to break through." The God Tree sighed.

It is special, unlike other miracle drugs or even elixirs of immortality.

The ginseng fruit tree in Shi Yi's chaotic small world, though a precious longevity elixir, had no cultivation whatsoever, only being proficient in some escape techniques. The divine herbs were the same, but the Heavenly God Tree was different; it was actually a Heavenly God, with one foot already in the sect leader realm.

Unfortunately, bound by the power of the rules, it was stuck there for life, unable to move forward even an inch.

"Although your cultivation may not advance further, your lifespan is endless. You watch as the great talents rise and fall, turning into dust, while you yourself remain eternally immortal, transcending all others," Shi Yi replied.

"You certainly know how to talk," the Celestial Tree said with a wry smile.

"Very well, it is fate that you have come here and met me. I will give you a Celestial Fruit and make you a Celestial God on the spot," the Celestial Tree suddenly said.

"God fruit?"

Shi Yi had no interest in this fruit, because becoming a god through the Heavenly God Fruit had many hidden dangers. With his talent, becoming a god was only a matter of time, so he naturally wouldn't ruin his future.

"Thank you for your kind offer, senior, but I won't accept the Heavenly God Fruit."

"Oh?"

The Celestial Tree was somewhat surprised to hear this, as it was the first time it had encountered a creature that showed no interest in the Celestial Fruit.

"You refused the Heavenly God Fruit I offered you. Do you perhaps have other motives?" the Heavenly God Tree asked.

“The outside world is in turmoil and great changes are about to occur. Senior, instead of staying here, why don’t you leave with me?” Shi Yi said.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Tree immediately became alert, a solemn expression appearing in its eyes. "What's happening outside?" it asked curiously.

Afterwards, Shi Yi told him about what had happened in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm and its current state.

"hiss!"

The Celestial Tree gasped in shock. The Immortal Ancient Realm was about to crack, unaware that this land of tribulation might no longer be safe.

Once those cult leaders from the outside world flood in, it might be captured and planted in a medicinal garden.

This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that the environment of heaven and earth is about to change drastically, and the end of the Dharma era is coming. Divine medicines like it will inevitably be cut down. At that time, its spirituality will be greatly damaged. The old tree couldn't help but tremble when it wanted these things.

"If only it could connect with that legendary land of immortality," the old tree murmured to itself, but it knew that was impossible.

Shi Yi naturally knew where the "land of immortality" it spoke of was—it was the Immortal Realm.

"This junior may guide the senior into the Immortal Realm."

"You? You're not even a god, how is that possible?" The Heavenly God Tree didn't believe it and thought it was unreliable.

Moreover, it had witnessed the brilliance of the Immortal Ancient Era. Compared to the Immortal Ancient Era, cultivators of the Chaotic Ancient Era were generally much weaker because the Heavenly Tribulation of this era had disappeared. Without the tempering of Heavenly Tribulation, cultivators were far inferior.

"Although I am not a god, I am young and my future is limitless," Shi Yi said with a smile.

Then, he revealed three streams of immortal energy, robust and holy, transcendent and sacred, which gathered above his head and vaguely transformed into a hazy flower of the Great Dao.

Instantly, the essence of the sun and moon, the energy of heaven and earth, pulsated in rhythm, and the rules of the heavens resonated with it.

The Heavenly Tree was greatly surprised. It had misjudged Shi Yi. He was an extraordinary prodigy, a young supreme being who had cultivated three strands of immortal energy. Even in the Immortal Ancient Era, there were not many like him, and he was even more rare in this era.

Then, Shi Yi told us that he had survived the three most powerful tribulations.

The Celestial Tree extended a thick branch and placed it on Shi Yi's shoulder, carefully sensing its surroundings.

Sure enough, this powerful physical body and soul had definitely been tempered by a heavenly tribulation, and not an ordinary one.

"What a powerful physique and soul!" the Celestial Tree exclaimed in admiration.

Its breathing became somewhat rapid, shocked by Shi Yi's power. It had originally thought that there would be no more supreme geniuses like those of the ancient immortals in this era, but it never expected that someone would rise to the challenge and defy fate.

During the subsequent conversation, its attitude changed drastically. It chatted happily with Shi Yi, and finally decided to take a gamble and go out with Shi Yi.

"Crack!"

A crack appeared, and a fissure appeared in Shi Yi's chaotic little world. The Heavenly God Tree was somewhat surprised when it saw this, and couldn't help but glance at Shi Yi's double pupil, knowing that this world was related to that eye.

When the Divine Tree truly entered the Chaotic Small World that day, it realized just how extraordinary Shi Yi was. There was actually a genuine, complete immortal herb here, which belonged to the infamous Ten Fierce Heavenly Horned Ants during the Immortal Ancient Era. In addition, there was also a fragmented immortal herb, and countless divine and holy herbs.

Such accumulation is simply astonishing. It strongly suspects that Shi Yi has visited dozens of immortal realms and emptied them all.

"The Celestial Tree?"

The ginseng fruit tree recognized the origin of the Heavenly God Tree at a glance and spoke in this way.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist," the Heavenly Divine Tree replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Although it is a divine medicine, it is a level below the immortal medicine of longevity. However, the Heavenly God Tree is special, possessing the cultivation of a half-step sect master. In a real fight, even the immortal medicine of longevity would have to avoid its sharp edge.

The two ancient trees began to communicate, and Shi Yi asked about the information of the Soil of All Things.

"You want to find the Soil of All Things? It's deep within this ancient land, but it's extremely dangerous there. The strongest lightning tribulation blocks the way, and even I wouldn't dare to venture there." The Heavenly Tree looked worried, afraid that Shi Yi would take it with him and perish in the strongest lightning tribulation. It felt uneasy and regretted boarding the ship prematurely.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi smiled slightly.

"It's just the strongest lightning tribulation, nothing to me, so please rest assured, senior."

The Heavenly Tree remained noncommittal, fully aware of the terror of the strongest lightning tribulation.

However, when it looked at the ginseng fruit tree and saw its calm expression, its anxiety gradually dissipated and it returned to peace.

"Stab!"

The crack closed, and the chaotic microcosm vanished.

Shi Yi then set off again, crossing the magnificent ancient mountain and heading deeper into the ancient land.

Along the way, he encountered many areas filled with lightning, just as the Heavenly Tree had described, filled with the strongest lightning tribulations, which only a young supreme being like him, who had cultivated three strands of immortal energy, could overcome.

Countless creatures formed from lightning appeared and surrounded Shi Yi, intending to destroy him.

He was naturally fearless and swept through with his strongest momentum, annihilating all the lightning creatures.

Of course, Shi Yi himself was also injured; the greatest tribulation was no joke.

In the end, he passed through the dangerous area unharmed. After walking for a long time, Shi Yi approached a strange and pure land, where he could see its mysterious scenery from afar.

The most mysterious place is a land that is colorful and full of strange phenomena. Brilliant fairy light flows there, creating a sacred atmosphere, like a fairyland on earth.

All earth!
Shi Yi was convinced that this was the Soil of All Things, and all its characteristics matched what he knew.

At the same time, he saw a familiar figure. It was a woman, illuminated by the glow released by the Earth of All Things, her true form beneath the Earth of All Things.

Witch!

Shi Yi knew that this must be the witch. In the original story, she was attracted by a cauldron and came to this place, and then went into seclusion under the soil of all things.

In this life, Shi Yi made a promise to Ye Qingxian that she would return to her own era. With Shi Yi's promise, the beings of that era should no longer frequently travel through time and space.

Yet the witch still came to this place and went into seclusion here. Could it be that the blood-stained Golden Cauldron of the Mother of All Things has still appeared?
With this question in mind, Shi Yi stepped toward the Pure Land.

This place is truly sacred, like a celestial paradise, where all kinds of great medicinal herbs grow.

Shi Yi didn't stand on ceremony and picked them all, putting them into the Chaos Small World.

He came before the Land of All Things and gazed at this extraordinary soil that powerful figures throughout history had longed for.

It is so mysterious that it can nourish all things and keep things immortal. Even if you bury a corpse there, it can be revived and brought back to life after a long time. For plant-based creatures, the soil of all things has an unimaginable attraction. Rooted in it, they can absorb amazing nutrients. It can be said to be the soil that great medicines like the most.
