"If you've taken the benefits, you should do the work," Taiyin Shiyi said with a serious expression.

"I suddenly realized that this level is not enough, it's still far from enough."

Upon hearing this, Taiyang Shiyi's lips twitched slightly, and he glanced at the white Qilin lying on the ground, convulsing, with pity.

In the cycle of illusions, the white Qilin had become numb. It had experienced countless grand gatherings in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea, witnessing time and time again the girl it cared about dying tragically before its eyes, lying in a pool of blood.

Each cycle of reincarnation felt like a knife to its heart.

By now, Bai Qilin's heart was shattered. Cowardice, loyalty, fear... all had been torn to shreds, leaving only pain, chaos, and distortion.

Its eyes were lifeless, and it watched indifferently as the grand gathering in the South China Sea Purple Bamboo Forest began once again, like a walking corpse on the verge of decay.

Sure enough, everything went as it had predicted. Scene after scene unfolded, all familiar to it, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived at the most painful moment.

A powerful alien creature attacked, and the girl holding it was targeted and killed. She fell helplessly into the blood, her eyes losing their light and becoming dull and lifeless.

Pain and struggle were revealed on the numb face of the white unicorn.

They thought it was all over and the next cycle would begin, but unexpectedly, the girl with dull eyes and who had already died suddenly moved.

The white Qilin was startled. This was different from what he had experienced before. The girl was clearly dead, so how could she still be moving?
The next moment, the girl turned her blood-covered face to face with the white qilin, her eyes cold and devoid of any emotion.

"coward."

She opened her mouth and shouted, blood gushing from her throat with a gurgling sound that sounded terrifying.

Hearing the girl's rebuke, Bai Qilin was filled with shame and dared not look her in the eye.

"They have the bloodline of the Ten Fiends, yet instead of rising up to avenge us, they just stand here weeping and wailing."

Upon hearing this, the white Qilin felt even more ashamed, its face turning red. At the same time, a flame of revenge ignited within its heart, growing ever stronger, causing its blood and qi to boil. It longed to roar to the sky and slash at the alien creatures.

"That's not how it is, listen to me."

Bai Qilin wanted to explain, and his voice unconsciously changed, no longer so timid, but heavy and slightly hoarse.

"I know you, you are so frail."

The girl coughed up blood, yet she continued to make sounds.

"That was me in the past," the white Qilin said in a low voice, his eyes filled with a resolute determination and a surge of anger.

"Prove it to me," the girl said.

The next moment, the alien creature that killed her appeared in the gray mist, its body covered with sharp spikes, its face ferocious, its eyes bloodthirsty, and it exuded a terrifying aura of killing intent.

He was ruthless and merciless. With a tearing sound, blood gushed out, and a blood-stained arm was pulled out. He put it in his mouth and chewed it, making a terrifying "crunch, crunch" sound.

Upon seeing this, the white Qilin's eyes turned bloodshot, instantly becoming bloodshot. It was the girl's arm, which had been used as food by the alien creature.

The white Qilin, which had been trembling slightly, suddenly went berserk and pounced on the creature without regard for anything else.

"what!"

The white Qilin roared and engaged the creature in fierce combat. During the battle, it was covered in blood and suffered countless broken bones. Even when it was critically injured and on the verge of death, it did not retreat. Unfortunately, the alien creature was too powerful and it was impossible to defeat it.

But the white Qilin didn't care about anything else. It roared and charged forward, fearless and reckless, even if it meant its own death.

After an unknown amount of time, the white Qilin finally collapsed, exhausted. All its strength was gone, and it couldn't even move a finger.

"Is it still impossible to win?"

The white Qilin was utterly despondent, and a sense of despair welled up in his heart.

Just then, a familiar arm reached out and gently stroked its forehead, as tenderly as ever.

"The Immortal Era has ended, and those people are gone. Your survival is thanks to the blood and lives of our powerful predecessors. You must live well and do your utmost to become stronger. You are a descendant of the Ten Fiends, with boundless potential, no less than the descendants of imperial clans from other realms," the girl said encouragingly.

“Those demons are too strong. I don’t know how to defeat them,” Bai Qilin replied.

"Surpass your fathers." The girl's brief answer gave Bai Qilin a definite goal.

"Surpassing our parents."

The white qilin murmured to itself, the confusion in its eyes slowly disappearing and replaced by determination.

The next moment, the girl disappeared, and the alien creature also disappeared... Before the white Qilin appeared the earth, solid earth, and it finally returned to reality from the illusion of reincarnation.

Looking at the muddy ground, the white Qilin knew that this was proof of its past cowardice. Now, everything was different, and it was no longer associated with cowardice.

Shi Yi stood upright before the white Qilin, expressionless, his eyes cold, silently looking down at it.

Have you realized it?

Taiyin Shiyi asked indifferently.

By now, Bai Qilin understood that everything he had just experienced originated from the person before him.

However, it did not hate Shi Yi; on the contrary, it was grateful to him for helping it shed its cowardice and become brave and resolute.

"I understand."

The white unicorn whispered.

Seeing this, Shi Yi nodded slightly, very satisfied with the changes in the white qilin.

Then, Taiyin Shiyi and Taiyang Shiyi turned around at the same time and headed back the way they came.

"Hehe, want power? If you do, then follow me." Taiyin Shiyi chuckled and said this, seemingly certain that the other party would come.

Looking at those two unfathomable figures, Bai Qilin gritted his teeth, got up from the ground, and followed them.

"This is your ancient treasure."

Shi Yi reached out and tossed something behind him, and a glowing object landed in the white Qilin's hand.

Staring blankly at the ancient treasure in its hand, it wondered how it could have been held by someone else if it hadn't given it its own will. It vaguely understood something.

Then, Bai Qilin quickly followed, knelt down in front of Shi Yishuang, and said, "Greetings, Master."

Shi Yi glanced at it, said nothing, and simply nodded.

"I will accept you as a disciple for now. In the Nine Heavens, there are many descendants of the Ten Fiends. If you are not as good as them, then you are not qualified to be my disciple," Shi Yi said. Upon hearing this, Bai Qilin's heart tightened, and he quickly replied, "Yes."

Following behind Shi Yi, it felt that this master was incredibly mysterious and unfathomable.

Unbeknownst to it, its master was currently contemplating the legendary Qilin Immortal Palace, wondering what it was like and what extraordinary opportunities it held.

"Taking a pure-blooded Qilin as a disciple doesn't seem so bad. The first Ten Fierce Treasure Technique I obtained was the Qilin Treasure Technique. I can learn something from the disciple. If Qilin blood is needed, I can also ask for it. I suppose it doesn't want to be expelled from the sect, right?" Shi Yi thought to himself.

The other cultivators, still dreaming of capturing the Qilin and becoming rich overnight, were still searching in this primeval forest. Little did they know that the white Qilin they longed for had already recognized their master and left with him.

"Buzz!"

The white Qilin's body shimmered with light, and in a flash, it transformed from a Qilin into a white-clad child, following behind Shi Yi's twin bodies.

Along the way, Shi Yi was busy, diligently teaching his newly accepted disciple the contents of the Qilin Technique.

This was the first of the Ten Fierce Techniques that Shi Yi obtained. He had been cultivating it for an unknown period of time and had already mastered the core essence of the Qilin Technique, with the five elements flowing and endlessly regenerating.

The white Qilin eagerly absorbed the profound insights and experiences of the Great Dao bestowed upon it by its master, constantly comparing and verifying them with its own understanding before perfecting and integrating them.

Shi Yi told it that if it wanted to forge its own path, it had to rely on itself. It could learn from others' experiences, but it couldn't simply copy them.

Bai Qilin naturally had no doubts about his master's words.

In addition to the Qilin Method, Shi Yi also taught it the Sacred Peacock Method, which is also the Way of the Five Elements, but it is a different direction from the Qilin Method.

The white Qilin, who had just received the sacred Peacock Technique, looked incredulous. It was truly unimaginable that he had obtained a supreme treasure technique comparable to the Qilin Technique so soon after becoming a disciple.

It quickly kowtowed to thank its master, saying that it had no way to repay him.

Shi Yi waved his hand.

"If you are defeated by someone else in the future and this method loses its reputation, it would be good enough if you didn't reveal my existence."

"Disciple understands." Bai Qilin bowed respectfully.

Shi Yi then told it that he would need it to get into the three major institutes.

Given his identities as a "remnant of a sinful clan," "the number one in the ancient immortal realm," and "one of the three immortal aura masters," going to the three great academies would inevitably be fraught with difficulties. The Changsheng Feng family of the Nine Heavens would certainly obstruct him in secret and try every means to trap him.

Shi Yi didn't want to go through the same twists and turns as Shi Hao in the original story before finally arriving at the Heavenly God Academy. During that time, Shi Hao also suffered the humiliation of becoming a mining slave for the Wang family.

Although he gained some opportunities while mining in the Primordial Ancient Mine, he also lost some time and opportunities from the three major academies. In comparison, Shi Yi would prefer to go directly to the three major academies.

The existence of the White Qilin is crucial to achieving this goal.

When Shi Yi is able to bring a genuine immortal spirit and a descendant of the Ten Fiends to the three academies, even if the Feng family wants to stop him, it will be to no avail.

After all, the three major academies are not dominated by the Feng family alone.

After hearing Shi Yi's plan, Bai Qilin unconditionally agreed to cooperate. Its master had been incredibly kind to it, not only helping it rebuild its mind but also teaching it the mysteries of the Qilin Technique and the sacred Peacock Treasure Technique, which was comparable to the Qilin Technique. Such a great favor could not be repaid. Helping its master avoid interference from enemies and enter the three great academies was nothing at all.

“Alright, you can cultivate in the chaotic small world I created. When it’s time for you to appear, I will inform you.” Shi Yi nodded and said.

As he spoke, Shi Yi's eyes flashed, and a crack appeared.

Bai Qilin glanced curiously into his master's eyes, and instantly felt his soul waver, as if he were about to become completely absorbed in them.

"Is this the legendary double pupils? What a terrifying pupil technique." It muttered to itself, then bowed to Shi Yi and stepped into the chaotic world.

It entered a secret room, which was separated by the power of the void on all sides. The space was very large, and an inconspicuous futon was placed there.

Upon seeing this, the white Qilin walked straight over. Only when it got closer did it realize the extraordinary nature of this futon. Just sitting cross-legged on it gave it the feeling of entering a state of enlightenment.

It began its seclusion journey. It would take a long time to digest what Shi Yi had taught it, and now it could take some time to settle down.

The rift in the chaotic miniature world closed, and the white Qilin was nowhere to be seen.

Upon seeing this, Shi Yishuang immediately set off for the legendary forbidden imperial city.

He didn't spend too much time capturing the white Qilin, so currently, he's still the fastest among the trial participants.

When he returned to the ancient road and arrived near that city, he saw three thousand geniuses from Daozhou approaching from afar.

These creatures will most likely be attracted by the news of the Qilin's appearance, and by the time they realize what's happening, Shi Yi will have already gone far away.

He wanted to be the first to arrive, and then use the descendants of the Ten Fiends to negotiate with the three supreme beings, striving to bypass the Feng family's targeting and directly reach the Boundless Heaven.

Having already confessed this matter to Bai Qilin, Shi Yi will not feel any psychological burden when carrying it out.

He continued on his way quickly, and unless he encountered some great opportunity, he would not stop.

Although the ancient road located in the no-man's-land is not as dangerous as other areas, it is still fraught with danger, and talented people often meet their demise without a burial place.

Each ancient city is like a signpost, guiding the trial participants along the ancient path.

Shi Yi walked quickly, passing through one ancient city after another, gradually approaching the final destination.

During this time, he often encountered creatures related to foreign lands, which made everything less peaceful as they approached the border.

Whenever Shi Yi encountered any creatures related to other realms, he showed no mercy and killed them all.

He also encountered an incident where a powerful being from another realm attempted to cross over. The other party used a blood altar stained with blood, and had beings in this realm affected by the other realm perform a sacrifice to help a portion of the powerful being's essence and spirit cross over to this realm.

Shi Yi happened to witness this, and the two sides fought fiercely. After a great battle, he successfully killed the spirit and essence of the other side that had crossed over from another realm. As for the creatures affected by the other realm, he also wiped them out completely.

After overcoming numerous obstacles, he finally arrived at the legendary imperial city.

Shi Yi stood beneath a magnificent ancient city, gazing up at the colossal structure before him.

It was enormous, vast and boundless, towering into the sky. Its entire body was forged from stars and meteorites, with stars rotating around it. Without using the double pupils, it was impossible to see its whole appearance.

It was so quiet here; no living beings could be seen on the city walls, yet there was an overwhelming aura that suppressed all the heavens and myriad worlds. It stood at the edge of the horizon, dominating everything.

Shi Yi knew that the final test was not within the Imperial City; only those beings who had signed the Primordial Covenant could enter. He walked through the magnificent Imperial City, seeing many stone tablets along the way, which recorded a great deal about the Imperial City.

Finally, he found a small town and came to the largest city in it, which was the gathering place for those who had passed the trial. As expected, Shi Yi was the first to arrive.
