The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils
Chapter 292 Trial
The woman from beyond the realm saw Shi Yi off as he departed. Along the way, she was all smiles and charming, like a fairy descended to earth.
As she spoke, she probed Shi Yi's intentions, mentioning many aspects, including Shi Yi's origins, his experiences in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, the many forbidden techniques he had mastered, and the True Immortal Sect behind him.
After the Immortal Ancient Era ended, Shi Yi, as the most dazzling existence, had everything about him placed under the spotlight. Three strands of immortal energy, Thunder Emperor Treasure Technique, Qilin Treasure Technique, Kunpeng Treasure Technique, Heavenly Horned Ant Treasure Technique... there were too many to count. If the forbidden secret techniques on his body were to be spread, they would be enough to serve as the foundation for more than a dozen super sects. His luck was so extraordinary that it made people envious.
That's why this female prodigy from the heavens asked for information.
Unfortunately, Shi Yi wasn't the type to be easily swayed by beautiful women. He gave vague answers to her questions, and she didn't get much useful information by the time they parted ways.
Watching Shi Yi leave, the female prodigy's smile vanished.
"Three strands of immortal energy, one body with two forms, more than a dozen forbidden treasure techniques... This being is beyond imagination. I never thought that there would be such a person in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces. He is not as barren and weak as I previously thought."
"It's a pity he comes from the Sinful Clan. Who knows what kind of storm he'll stir up if he ascends to the heavens like this?" she murmured to herself, her black hair fluttering in the wind.
……
After leaving Zhongzhou, Shi Yi didn't go anywhere else. He had already been to Tianyun Academy. Apart from that, the only person he cared about in the Upper Realm was the witch from Jietian Sect. The two had a karmic connection in the Lower Realm and traveled together in the Upper Realm, venturing into the No Man's Land and experiencing a lot together. She could be considered his confidante.
However, it is not suitable for him to go to the Jietian Sect at present. The strength of such a super sect is unfathomable. If he goes there with his current cultivation level, it will be very troublesome if the other party has bad intentions. Shi Hao and the Celestial Race are good examples.
If the Reincarnation Disc had no restrictions on its use, he would naturally be very confident, but now, Shi Yi cannot do as he pleases.
Therefore, to visit top-tier powers like the Patching Heaven Sect or the Intercepting Heaven Sect, one must have sufficient strength to deter petty villains.
He went directly to the place the three supreme beings had told him about, which was the entrance to the ancient road leading to that ancient city, located at the border of the Three Thousand Provinces and the No Man's Land, in a place called Shengzhou.
With the help of the teleportation arrays of powerful forces, Shi Yi continuously crossed Daozhou, getting closer to his destination.
Soon after, he arrived, standing atop a giant mountain, gazing at the vast, uninhabited area ahead.
Within the restricted area, towering and majestic mountains rise into the clouds, resembling pillars supporting the sky.
Shi Yi knew the dangers of the no-man's-land and naturally wouldn't easily step into it. Next, he just needed to wait for the trial to begin.
A few days later, a purple-gold warship broke through the clouds with great momentum and sailed towards this area.
"what?"
On the warship, the three supreme beings let out a soft exclamation and saw the figure sitting cross-legged on the mountain peak in the distance. It was Shi Yi, who had come to wait here long ago.
"It will take a few more days to open the forbidden zone trial." A supreme being spoke, pointing at Shi Yi. Two futons immediately appeared under his feet, quite extraordinary, exuding wisps of immortal energy.
"A futon related to a true immortal?" Shi Yi's heart stirred.
"Thank you, senior."
The Supreme One nodded. He was clearly not one of those who were hostile to the Sin Clan. He took good care of Shi Yi and thought highly of him.
Subsequently, Taiyin and Taiyang each sat cross-legged on a Taoist futon, closed their eyes to meditate, and comprehended the ethereal Taoist energy.
He possessed an extraordinary meditation cushion, obtained from the Kunpeng Nest in the lower realm. It was once used by the Ten Fierce Kunpengs for enlightenment and cultivation, and was slightly better than the meditation cushion bestowed by the Supreme Being. However, he would not show it off in front of everyone, lest it arouse envy.
As time went by, one after another, qualified prodigies arrived, all of whom had cultivated immortality.
Chang Gongyan, Qingyi, Yuechan, Cao Yusheng, and others arrived one after another. The witch also came. After seeing Shi Yi's body, she walked over with light steps and finally stood beside Shi Yi. She stood gracefully, and her eyes were full of a unique charm. Even the geniuses from beyond the realms looked at her frequently.
Lin Tian and the young man in purple armor glanced at the witch several times. Even in the heavens above, such a woman was a rare sight.
Next, Shi Hao appeared. He bid farewell to Huo Ling'er and resolutely embarked on his journey.
Immortals and ten-time champions were naturally present; as possessors of three strands of immortal energy, they were the center of attention wherever they went.
Besides, there are many beings who have not yet cultivated immortal energy. The rule set by the three supreme beings was that only beings who have cultivated immortal energy are qualified to participate in the trial. However, later they believed that some people may lack innate talent but can make great progress later on, so they relaxed the conditions. Anyone who wants to and is willing can come.
This is undoubtedly a chance to change one's destiny. If one can pass the trial, go to the Nine Heavens, and join the three great academies, the future will be limitless.
That is why many creatures come here with hope, wanting to give it a try.
However, the dangers of the no-man's-land are well known. There are all sorts of creatures, from immortal beings to yellow mud that can turn a passing old master into a bloody mist. Even a supreme being must be careful when walking in the no-man's-land, as death is always a possibility.
If even supreme beings and sect leaders are like this, let alone cultivators of lower realms.
Although the three supreme beings informed them that the Trial Path was an ancient road with a danger level that was less than one in ten compared to other areas, even if only one in ten survived, it would still be fatal.
Many cultivators want to take a gamble, but even more cherish life.
Even so, the number of cultivators who came to participate in the trial reached 100,000.
Looking at the throng of cultivators eager to try their skills, Shi Yi shook his head and sighed softly.
One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand. Ten thousand people set out, but how many will be left at the end? This is destined to be a journey filled with bloodshed and terror.
The three supreme beings glanced at the 100,000 cultivators who had come to participate in the trial, and said solemnly, "I'll say it again: stepping onto this ancient path means certain death and annihilation. It's not too late to regret it now; just leave immediately."
His voice was incredibly majestic, as if an unparalleled emperor were looking down upon the world.
Many beings were frightened by the Supreme Being's words, their expressions shifting between anger and uncertainty. After struggling for a while, they ultimately chose to withdraw.
After the participating cultivators had settled down, the three supreme beings waved their hands, and instantly, the entrance to the ancient road was opened, revealing a clear view of the vast mountains.
"Go, as long as you survive, follow this road and you will find the ancient city. I will be waiting for you there."
The Supreme Being's words were like a shot of adrenaline to everyone, igniting their excitement and making them feel as if they could already see themselves entering the ancient city and ascending to the heavens.
Seeing this, the Supreme Being nodded in satisfaction and waved towards the no-man's-land. Instantly, golden light appeared, and the long-sealed ancient road was activated, radiating brilliant light.
"Go forth. Whether you find the ancient city depends on your own fate and abilities." The three supreme beings made their move, enveloping a large number of geniuses. People sensed a vast ocean of law power. The next moment, all the cultivators' vision went black, and they disappeared from their original spots.
The three supreme beings used their great supernatural powers to disperse tens of thousands of cultivators to various parts of the ancient road. Some were unlucky and started from the beginning, while others were lucky and were directly teleported millions of miles away. This was random and there were no designated quotas. It all depended on individual luck.
Of course, there is one exception, and that is Shi Yi.
He became the "luckiest" one, being directly teleported 1.2 million miles away, giving him an innate advantage over all other cultivators.
This wasn't because he was lucky or a chosen one, but rather the result of Shi Yi's deliberate interference.
Before the three supreme beings made their move, he activated the Heavenly Fate Tortoise Shell in the Forbidden Sea of Bitterness. Instantly, chaotic mist filled the air, and the power of destiny was stirred, allowing him to surpass everyone else.
Shi Yi landed on the ground, without making any movement, simply standing there and looking around.
This is a primeval forest, lush and verdant, giving people a sense of vitality. However, in Shi Yi's double pupils, it is full of dangers. One wrong step could turn him into ashes and become nourishment for someone else.
For example, an inconspicuous tree may harbor a terrifying killing intent, with bones scattered throughout the soil where its roots are embedded.
For example, a dead tree by the roadside, already rotten, is the habitat of a cult leader-level insect beast.
There was also blood mud mixed with the flesh and blood of supreme and true immortal beings, exuding evil energy, which annihilated everything in an instant.
……
There are too many to count. Any one of them could take Shi Yi's life. Even a prodigy like him, a cultivator with three strands of immortal energy, is in danger of dying, let alone others.
Fortunately, Shi Yi has double pupils, which allows him to see through illusions and understand the true nature of things. Fortunately, he also has the Reincarnation Disc, which can help him avoid many terrible calamities.
With these resources, Shi Yi traveled smoothly and without much effort, making his way far away.
The others were not so lucky. Of the approximately 100,000 cultivators who participated in the trial, 70,000 died on the first day, an extremely high mortality rate. Screams and wails of cultivators could be heard everywhere, extremely mournful, like the howls of vengeful ghosts from ancient times, making people tremble with fear.
Only a few exceptionally beautiful beings could remain calm.
Shi Hao, the Ten-Crown King, the Banished Immortal, the Nine-Lives Heavenly Lord, and other such beings steadily and surely destroyed one obstacle after another that blocked their path, advancing towards that ancient city.
Many prodigies also died with regrets, falling halfway through their journey. Undoubtedly, this is a bloody road, where 99% of people are destined to die and then be forgotten.
Soon, Shi Yi approached a colossal city. Gazing into the distance, he felt the grandeur and antiquity of the city. Was this the so-called forbidden imperial city? No, it shouldn't be, Shi Yi concluded.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a city built by the descendants of those powerful individuals who abided by the ancient covenant and went to the Forbidden Zone Imperial City. Its scale is far smaller than that of the Forbidden Zone Imperial City.
However, it's worth exploring.
Just as he was about to set off to explore the ancient city, a group of people suddenly appeared and blocked his way.
"Who are you, and why are you wandering around the ancient city?" the leading creature demanded of Shi Yi.
The latter smiled, not answering his question, but instead asking, "And who are you people?"
Seeing that Shi Yi did not answer him but instead asked a question, the leader's face immediately darkened.
"Could he be a spy? Seize him!"
The leader shouted, and the others, who had been eager to move, rushed forward, taking out various magical artifacts and techniques, and bombarding Shi Yi's body, trying to suppress him in one blow.
Unfortunately, they misjudged Shi Yi and didn't know how terrifying he was. They looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.
The next moment, Taiyin Shiyi made his move, unleashing the Kunpeng Technique. Like a streak of lightning across the sky, he instantly broke free of the encirclement and attacked these creatures. His powerful cultivation at the Saintly Sacrifice Realm made him fearless of the gods. These creatures had not even cultivated immortal energy, so they were naturally no match for him.
Sunstone was not idle either; he also made a move. He swung his fists, and the divine light within his flesh and blood shone brightly, emitting a sacred and dazzling radiance, like furnaces of flesh and blood, glowing and radiating heat, or like burning suns, bursting forth with boundless light.
His physical strength was terrifying; he swept across all the heavens and myriad realms, and wherever he went, everything was shattered and annihilated. He truly broke through all laws with his own power.
Furthermore, he used the Heavenly Horned Ant Treasure Technique, which made him unstoppable, as if he were about to sweep across the world.
"puff!"
With a single punch, several living beings were blasted to death, and the surrounding space shattered into dust.
On Taiyin Shiyi's side, several beings also bled and died tragically in the void.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Yi's double body wiped out the entire group.
Throughout the entire process, Shi Yi did not communicate with the other party or inquire about their true identities, because there was no need; he had already discerned the origins of these beings.
Deep within their eyes lurked a bloodthirsty madness and murderous intent, and their bodies contained strange substances. Undoubtedly, they had been corrupted by the aura released from the alien land on the other side of the border and had become possessed by demons.
This situation is not an isolated case; it occurs frequently. The group that Shi Yi encountered was the most powerful of them all, with all members being celestial beings. They were extremely formidable and intimidating.
Unfortunately, they were unlucky enough to encounter Shi Yi's dual bodies. Either of his Taiyin and Taiyang clones could easily crush them, let alone when both bodies appeared together.
Shi Yi used both hands to erase the traces left by these creatures, and then stepped towards the ancient city.
He used the Seventy-Two Transformations Technique to silently infiltrate the city. Soon, Shi Yi heard news that a pure-blooded Qilin had appeared in the world. This was a true immortal spirit from the Immortal Ancient Era, and its appearance caused a huge uproar.
"The White Qilin?" Shi Yi murmured, his eyes darting around as he pondered.
Ultimately, he decided to give it a try. He possessed the Qilin Treasure Technique and was far ahead of other cultivators, giving him ample time to communicate with the White Qilin.
Since he had encountered a descendant of one of the Ten Fiends of the Immortal Ancient Era, there was no reason to miss it. Of course, Shi Yi did not have high hopes. After all, Ning Chuan, who had a deep karmic connection with the Qilin lineage in the original work, ended up failing, let alone him.
