The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils
Chapter 322 The Battle for the Boundary Tomb
A few days later, Dugu Yun set off for the Primordial Ancient Mine, escorted by several elders.
More than half a month later, a great upheaval occurred in the Taichu Ancient Mine. Dugu Yun entered the ancient mine and stayed for several days, only to be swept out by black blood.
His face was grim as he emerged with black blood, sparking speculation among the crowd. Previously, the Golden Three-Headed King had personally demonstrated the process of golden blood turning into black blood and had uttered some thought-provoking words.
Only Shi Yi knew that Dugu Yun wanted to find a way back to the Immortal Realm, to go to his ancestral land, and to bathe in the sacred river. Unfortunately, times had changed, and he was destined to fail.
"Woo!"
On this day, the sound of bugles rang out, carrying a sense of vicissitude and antiquity, as if it came from another world.
An enormous, incomparably large silver warship sailed from the void and stopped above the Heavenly God Academy.
Upon receiving the elder's telepathic message, figures set off, rushing towards the silver warship, which stretched for tens of thousands of feet, resembling a continent suspended in mid-air.
Taiyin Shiyi arrived, landing on the silver warship. At this moment, he was incredibly eye-catching, becoming the focus wherever he went.
Shi Hao, the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, the Nine-Lives Heavenly Lord, Wang Xi, Yao Yue, Xuan Kun, Lü Tuo... they all came, including Dugu Yun, who had just returned from the Primordial Ancient Mine a few days ago.
Several elders from the Heavenly God Academy also appeared on the warship, about to lead the academy's disciples to the Boundary Tomb to search for immortal seeds and achieve their own Great Dao.
"Destination: Boundary Tomb," the Second Elder announced, personally leading the team.
With a wave of his hand, the silver warship immediately started and headed towards an altar.
The altar glowed, and in an instant, the silver warship became blurry, disappearing in a few flashes.
Taiyin Shiyi sat cross-legged on the ground, closing his eyes to meditate. His body was spotless, surrounded by immortal energy, and he was incomparably holy, like a true immortal descending to earth, or like the son of an immortal king. This kind of temperament made many people speechless, wondering how he had cultivated to this level.
Even Dugu Yun frequently glanced at him. He could sense the unfathomable depth of Taiyin Shiyi, and facing him was like facing a young member of a foreign royal family.
However, if a real fight broke out, he still felt that the alien royal family had a greater advantage. After all, Shi Yi cultivated the ancient immortal techniques, while the aliens were already very familiar with the ancient immortal techniques. The supreme figures of that realm had even created a method to counter them, which was very difficult to solve.
At this moment, Shi Hao walked over and talked to Dugu Yun, asking about the black blood in the Primordial Ancient Mine.
“If you have plenty of free time, you might as well close your eyes and rest like him, conserve your energy, and prepare to deal with the dangers in the Boundary Tomb. You might just get what you want there, meet some ancient royal family members, and fight them,” Dugu Yun replied.
"What? There are alien creatures in the Boundary Tomb?" Shi Hao exclaimed in surprise.
Dugu Yun then explained that his ancestors had personally led some ancient tribes into the boundary tombs, and he believed that those tribes had not perished, but were still alive and had left behind descendants.
"Is there such a thing?"
The elders of the Heavenly God Academy were astonished upon hearing this. They had entered the Boundary Tomb more than once, but had never heard of such a thing.
Soon, they were traversing a strange passage, where terrifying time energy eroded them. Although the silver warship activated its defenses, it was still unable to completely block it.
The once brand-new hull decayed in a very short time, covered with the marks of time, and the creatures inside the warship became drowsy and mentally confused.
People didn't recover until the warships passed through the tunnel, but they were still listless.
Only a few living beings were unaffected.
Shi Yi, who was proficient in the power of time, was naturally one of them. His whole body was filled with clear immortal light, and the place where he sat cross-legged turned into a pure land. Various immortal laws and principles manifested on their own, which was awe-inspiring. The cultivators not far away even heard the hazy sound of the Great Dao coming from that pure land.
"Immortal Body".
Dugu Yun spoke, quite surprised. It had been a long time since he had seen such a person. If Taiyin Shiyi had been born in another realm, he would definitely be an honored guest of the Immortals and the Immortal King.
The alien world places great importance on the cultivation of the younger generation, which is one of the important reasons for its extreme strength and enduring prosperity. Therefore, once a prodigy is born, he or she will receive great support and education.
Of course, that realm is also cruel, with competition far more intense than ordinary people can imagine, where death and annihilation are commonplace.
"Have we reached the boundary graves?"
The disciples stepped out of the cabin and onto the deck, gazing ahead and observing their surroundings.
Legend has it that this place is the tomb of the world, where countless broken worlds were buried and countless secrets were hidden. Throughout history, it has always been known for its mystery. Some have found the seeds of the universe's nascent form here, planted them within their bodies, and achieved the supreme path. Others have found the World Tree here...
Thinking of those legends, everyone was excited. Could this trip really lead to finding the Immortal Seed, just as the elders said?
"We haven't arrived yet; we're only at the outer edge of the boundary tomb," an elder said.
Then, the silver warship sailed into the depths of the dark void.
Suddenly, a cloud of fine white sand drifted closer from afar, each grain of sand crystal clear, resembling a shimmering lake from a distance.
"what is that?"
The disciples were puzzled, only finding the object to be magnificent.
"Come on."
Only the Second Elder realized something was wrong and shouted loudly.
The other elders, unsuspecting, immediately steered their silver warships away.
Just as they dodged, they saw the white sand scatter, gathering some stars. Instantly, an explosion rang out, and the stars burst open like brilliant fireworks.
Everyone's expression changed drastically. A single grain of sand could shatter a star; it was hard to imagine how terrifying the power would be if so many grains of sand were gathered together.
"Elder, what is that?"
“It’s a fragmented cosmic seed, unusable now. Of course, under certain conditions, fine sand might evolve into celestial stars, but that’s practically impossible. Moreover, that thing has a demonic quality; it’s probably tainted with the blood of living beings and could devour its master at any time,” the Second Elder explained.
Everyone's expression changed; they had thought the incomplete seed of the universe was usable, but they hadn't expected it to be so dangerous.
The warship sailed swiftly, and along the way, various stellar remains and ancient continents lay scattered like layers of leaves, everywhere.
Soon after, wisps of chaotic mist appeared in the void. Upon seeing this, the elders reminded everyone that they were about to enter the true Boundary Tomb.
The silver warship pierced through the misty area and plunged into the vast Boundary Graveyard.
As soon as they entered, everyone saw an amazing scene. In the distance, a towering tree stood tall, with stars hanging from its branches like fruits.
However, the ancient tree that once stood tall and majestic had withered and died, and its fruit had also lost its vitality, all of it withered.
"Is that a World Tree?"
People murmured to themselves that they had never seen such a tall tree, and that the fruit it bore was like stars, which was so similar to the characteristics of the World Tree.
"No, that was a demon tree, cultivated from a branch of the World Tree. Someone wanted to use it to cultivate a demon tree as an invincible weapon, but unfortunately, they failed and perished here along with the cultivator."
"The true World Tree can only be born through natural evolution," the Second Elder explained.
Soon, the warship encountered a kind of demonic herb that feeds on stars, known as the Star-Eating Herb.
"Let's go." The Second Elder decisively steered the warship away. Although that plant wasn't very intelligent, crashing into it would be very troublesome. During their subsequent journey, they encountered a primordial deity born from chaos, resembling a hyena with dragon horns and a pair of vermilion bird wings—extremely powerful.
However, it had been dead for countless years, and all the valuable parts inside its body had been hollowed out, leaving only an empty shell drifting in the void.
The warships naturally wouldn't linger here; they quickly bypassed it and continued sailing deeper into the boundary graveyard.
Just as everyone was admiring and experiencing the unique environment of the boundary tomb, they suddenly heard the elder's solemn voice.
"Ready to fight!"
"An enemy attack? Where?"
Upon hearing this, everyone tensed up, their divine power surging within them, ready to make a move.
"That's a battle spirit."
An elder looked ahead with a solemn expression. Following his gaze, people saw a blood-stained warship, shrouded in a gray mist, approaching them.
"Can't we avoid it?"
"It's no use. Once this thing locks onto us, it will fight to the death. Hopefully, there aren't any ancient ancestor-level battle spirits among them." The Second Elder shook his head.
At the same moment, Shi Yi, who had been sitting cross-legged in the cabin without moving, opened his eyes.
Battle spirits are quite special, being the spiritual consciousness of beings who died in battle. They are formless, intangible, and incredibly strange. They constantly absorb power and transform it into spiritual energy, hoping that one day they can truly transform into primordial spirits and be resurrected.
Killing these battle spirits has great benefits; it allows one to absorb soul power and strengthen oneself. Shi Yi naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
He stepped out of the cabin and onto the deck. When the disciples saw Taiyin Shiyi appear, they felt inexplicably at ease. He was now the strongest of the younger generation at the Heavenly God Academy.
"Woo..."
After a series of wailing and howling, countless figures rushed out of the blood-stained warship and charged towards the silver warship.
At the same time, terrifying auras erupted from the ancient warship, causing the expressions of several elders from the Heavenly God Academy to change drastically.
"This is bad. There's an ancient ancestor-level battle spirit. We need to take action. You all need to protect yourselves," the Fourth Elder warned.
The fact that everyone's expression changed and the elders were unable to protect them was enough to illustrate the seriousness of the situation.
“These battle spirits are formed from divine consciousness, and they are very strange. Be careful,” the Fifth Elder said.
After saying that, several elders rushed up from the deck and attacked the ancient ancestor-level battle spirits on the blood-stained warship.
In an instant, a great battle broke out. Even the elders of the Heavenly God Academy, who were powerful enough, could not immediately suppress their opponents and end the battle.
Fortunately, they managed to stop the larger battle spirits, and those who rushed over were all small fish, roughly the same size as the academy disciples.
The battle spirits arrived, their chilling aura sweeping over everyone, making them tremble involuntarily.
The disciples made their move, each displaying their unique abilities, and engaged in fierce combat with the battle spirits. However, as soon as they clashed, screams of agony rang out.
Even Wang Xi and the others, who had cultivated three strands of immortal energy, exclaimed in surprise, because the battle spirit could actually devour divine power.
Taiyin Shiyi held nothing back, unleashing a powerful and sweeping attack from the perspective of ancient immortal techniques, blasting away the battle spirit.
The destroyed war spirit left behind a special soul power, which Shi Yi absorbed. Instantly, his primordial spirit felt refreshed, and his divine soul power increased slightly.
This feeling is very comfortable, and the improvement is visible to the naked eye. It can accumulate little by little until a transformation occurs.
Having benefited, Taiyin Shiyi's spirits lifted, and his attacks became even more terrifying, causing the three cultivators of immortal energy to tremble with fear.
What others considered incredibly troublesome battle spirits were simply crushed and instantly killed by Taiyin Shiyi. He was invincible and swept through them all.
Everyone was stunned.
After entering the Boundary Tomb, Shi Yi did not come out. As soon as he did, he went on a killing spree.
Many people showed their gratitude, feeling that Shi Yi was protecting everyone. After all, several creatures were almost killed by the battle spirits, and they would have perished if Shi Yi hadn't intervened.
But Shi Hao didn't think so. He understood Shi Yi and knew that there must be a reason for him to do this. So, Shi Hao quickly killed a battle spirit and experienced the benefits. His expression changed, and he rushed towards the tide of battle spirits without hesitation.
The others looked at each other, bewildered as they watched Shuang Shi frantically kill the battle spirits.
The Ten-Crown King and his group were slow to realize what was happening. By the time they realized something was wrong and rushed to kill the War Spirit, it was too late.
In the end, Shi Yi became the biggest beneficiary, annihilating most of the battle spirits, his divine soul glowing and shining brightly.
At this moment, the ancient ship disintegrated, and some things fell out, including a glowing seed.
"Huh? A priceless seed of soul power." The elders of the Heavenly God Academy were astonished.
All the battle spirits turned and roared as they rushed toward that spot, all wanting to merge with that soul power seed.
Seeing this, Taiyin Shiyi unleashed his full power, carrying the Taiyin Feather Wings on his back and using the Qilin Step, charging towards the Soul Power Seed.
Not to be outdone, Shi Hao also used the Kunpeng Technique to follow, eager to seize the opportunity.
"Sizzle! Sizzle..."
Taiyin Shiyi used a sword technique, which, although not as heaven-defying as the Pacifying Chaos Technique, was still a renowned method of attacking the primordial spirit during the Immortal Ancient Era.
With the blessing of his powerful primordial spirit, the power of this technique was unparalleled. One after another, the battle spirits fell, turning into spiritual energy, which he absorbed, bringing waves of coolness.
Sweeping away the obstacles, Taiyin Shiyi rushed towards the soul power seed and reached out his large hand to grab it.
At this moment, the Soul Power Seed trembled and flew towards Shi Hao on the other side. He opened his Unique Cave Heaven and imprisoned the Soul Power Seed from a distance, trying to snatch it from the tiger's mouth.
Seeing this, Shi Yi remained expressionless and threw a punch at Shi Hao. The latter was not to be outdone and clashed his fists together, causing immortal energy and Dao principles to fly wildly, creating an aura that shocked the world.
In the end, Shi Hao took a few steps back and failed to regain his balance.
The binding power released by the Unique Cave Heaven was also interrupted, and Shi Yi seized the Soul Power Seed.
In his palm, celestial radiance flowed, enveloping the soul power seed layer by layer. No matter how fiercely it struggled, it could not break free of the restraint. In the end, the soul power seed calmed down and stopped trembling.
"A perfect seed of soul power," the Fifth Elder exclaimed as he approached.
"It can be considered the top-tier Dao Seed, second only to the Supreme Immortal Seed." The Second Elder nodded.
