The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

Upon first meeting, Shi Yi revealed the old man's identity, and the smile on his face vanished abruptly, as if he had been stripped naked and seen through completely.

He couldn't help but feel a little guilty and quite annoyed. Didn't Yuan Qing say that he didn't have much interaction with Taiyang Shiyi and that his intentions hadn't been exposed?

At this moment, the old man thought again that perhaps Sun Stone didn't know his purpose. The reason he could guess his identity was because of the battle between the Heavenly God Academy and Yuan Qing.

"That's right. Junior Brother Yuan Qing told me that he and you exchanged blows at the Heavenly God Academy. Although you were a whole realm below him, you gained the upper hand and made him bleed." The old man's face regained a smile, and he readily admitted it.

"So, you're going to get revenge for your junior brother?" Taiyang Shiyi asked calmly.

"Hahaha, young friend, you misunderstand. I am an elder of the Holy Academy. How could I be such a petty person?" The old man waved his hand, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Taiyang Shiyi.

Before Shi Yi could answer, he transmitted his voice again and said, "This is what happened. Not long ago, I and an elder from a family of immortals explored a treasure land of ruins and obtained great benefits there, including a few drops of the Nirvana essence blood of a True Phoenix."

However, a disagreement arose during the distribution process. Subsequently, I made a bet with that old man, and we each found a young person at the Void Dao Realm, then fought to see who was stronger, and finally distributed the spoils according to the results of the battle.

Originally, I wanted to find the little saint of my Holy Academy, but I didn't expect you to appear out of nowhere and injure my junior brother Yuan Qing with one blow.

You must know that he is a half-step into the Escape Realm, and you have managed to do this. Your combat strength is the strongest I have ever seen in my life.

Therefore, I thought of you. If you are willing to lend a hand, I will certainly take the lion's share when it comes to the distribution. At that time, I can give you a few drops of True Phoenix Nirvana Essence Blood as a reward. You need these rare and precious materials most for cultivating this world's methods. Unfortunately, they are rare and hard to come by, and the collection in the courtyard has already been distributed.”

Shi Yi's lips twitched slightly; in fact, they were twitching. The story told by the Holy Academy Elder was so old-fashioned that it might fool a fool, but to fool him was really overkill.

However, Shi Yi is now falling for this tactic, and he's eager to see who's going to make a move against him.

Only by using yourself as bait can you catch a big fish.

"I see. I thought the elder was here to stand up for Yuan Qing. Now that things have been cleared up, there's no misunderstanding."

As for the bet the elder mentioned, if I win, I wonder how many drops of Phoenix Rebirth essence blood I'll receive?

Upon hearing Shi Yi's answer, Elder Sheng was overjoyed, feeling that he had grasped Shi Yi's desire for rare and precious treasures.

"Three drops. If you win, young friend, I'll give you three drops as a reward. How about that?" Elder of the Holy Academy said "generously."

“Okay, it’s settled then. When are we going?” Taiyang Shiyi nodded.

"There's no time to lose. Let's set off now for the agreed location. I won't be at ease until those good things are distributed quickly," Elder of the Holy Academy replied.

“The elder is absolutely right. Three drops of Phoenix Nirvana essence blood are enough to allow me to reach a higher level and complete an amazing transformation. I can’t wait,” Taiyang Shiyi agreed.

After reaching an agreement, the two set off immediately, each exiting from the Holy Temple, and then meeting up at a certain location outside the Holy Temple.

According to Elder Sheng, he was afraid that if others found out about this, the Nirvana Essence Blood would be confiscated, and Shi Yi would have gained nothing.

Taiyang Shiyi was fully aware of this and agreed without hesitation.

Soon, the two met up on the agreed-upon hilltop. Seeing that Taiyang Shiyi had arrived on time, Elder Shengyuan was all smiles, overjoyed.

"Come this way."

He gave a shout, then led the way, speeding away from the Holy Academy with Sunstone.

After flying for an unknown period of time, the elder of the Holy Academy finally slowed down and stopped amidst a range of towering mountains.

“He should have arrived by now, at the foot of that mountain,” Elder of the Holy Academy said.

Taiyang Shiyi followed his steps and arrived at the agreed place in the blink of an eye.

He looked around and saw magnificent mountains and flowing water; the environment was quite nice.

"Elder, is this the burial place you carefully chose for me?" Sunstone asked with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, Elder Sheng stopped in his tracks and did not turn around immediately. As a powerful expert at the peak of the Escape One realm, he did not take mere Void Dao cultivators seriously at all.

"You already knew?"

“Yuan Qing’s little schemes can’t be hidden from me, and the lame story you told was so old-fashioned that it gave me a headache.” - Taiyang Shiyi.

"Heh, you're quite alert, but it doesn't matter. The moment you stepped into this place, your fate was sealed." The Holy Academy elder sneered, no longer pretending, and unleashed his killing intent without restraint.

"Interesting. Knowing there's a trap, they still foolishly followed. How amusing." Suddenly, a cold voice rang out, and a tall being stepped out from the void. Like the elder of the Holy Academy, he was at the half-step supreme realm.

At the same time, from Shi Yi as the center, beings emerged from all directions, including men and women, the elderly and middle-aged.

Including the Holy Academy elder who brought Shi Yi here, there were a total of eight people, all of whom were at the peak of the Escape One realm.

Several of them were holding powerful magical artifacts that exuded a faint aura of supreme power.

In order to eliminate Taiyang Shiyi, Yuan Qing and the Changsheng Feng family behind him spared no expense, inviting so many powerful figures.

Without the Supreme Being present, this lineup could annihilate a young prodigy as easily as crushing an ant.

That's why they were so confident, each with a cold gaze looking down at Shi Yi. In their eyes, Shi Yi was already a dead man.

"Fine, I'll let you die knowing why. You offended someone you shouldn't have. To be precise, your ancestors committed a grave mistake. Such a sinful bloodline should never have anyone rise to power. Erasing you is just the beginning. Your clone in the Immortal Academy, and Huang hiding in the Heavenly God Academy, will all die without exception. Who told you to offend the Longevity Family?" A middle-aged man shook his head and sighed, seemingly with pity, but in reality, he was mocking him.

Faced with the encirclement and killing intent of the eight half-step supreme beings, Taiyang Shiyi's face showed not a trace of panic, but was frighteningly calm.

"Alas, don't blame me. As an elder of the Holy Academy, I naturally care about the academy and hope that it can have a disciple as extraordinary as you. But they have given too much, and I can't bring myself to refuse. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful to those good things." Elder Yuan Qing of the Holy Academy sighed and said hypocritically.

Upon hearing this, Taiyang Shiyi couldn't help but laugh. He recalled a saying from his past life: "If you open the champagne before you even reach the settlement page, trouble is sure to follow."

"Well, you should tell my master, the Grand Elder, about these things."

Upon hearing this, the eight beings present were suddenly startled. The Grand Elder? They knew that Taiyang Shiyi had gone to the Grand Elder and was very likely to become his disciple. However, the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy was currently away from the academy on important matters. This period was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If they did not seize it, it would be difficult to eliminate Taiyang Shiyi once the Grand Elder returned.

"Heh heh, you little bastard, do you think such lies can scare us away?"

"As far as I know, the Grand Elder is not in the courtyard. You should accept your fate; no one will come to save you."

……

The eight peak-stage cultivators were terrified by the "Grand Elder," but they quickly recovered.

"Is that so?" Taiyang Shiyi didn't explain, but directly took out a jade pendant and activated it without hesitation.

The next moment, the jade pendant glowed, tearing through the void and shooting out one dazzling beam of light after another.

A figure emerged from the light. He was not very tall; he was an old man with white hair and beard, and his skin was clear, full, and rosy, giving him a youthful appearance despite his white hair.

The moment the old man appeared, the eight half-step supreme beings present were stunned as if they had been electrocuted.

An indescribable sense of fear swept over them. They wanted to move, but their legs felt like they were made of lead, incredibly heavy and unresponsive.

It was all because of that terrifying old man, the legendary Grand Elder of the Holy Academy, who was the same age as this era. He was so powerful that people trembled, and even the Eternal Life Clan had to give him some respect.

Such an existence is simply not something that these ants can possibly challenge.

"Grand...Grand Elder..." The Holy Academy Elder was dumbfounded, a mix of emotions welling up inside him. He truly hadn't expected the Grand Elder to give such a thing to a disciple he had just met. This had never happened before, unless the Grand Elder had a premonition that someone would harm Sun Stone Yi.

The white-haired, youthful-looking Grand Elder of the Holy Academy immediately understood the situation and the cause and effect. His expression was cold, even somewhat gloomy.

He had just acquired an extraordinary disciple, in whom he saw hope for breaking the deadlock. Unexpectedly, someone targeted him so quickly and set up a trap. What enraged him most was that one of the people involved was an elder of the Holy Academy.

"boom!"

The terrifying supreme pressure spread out, forcibly pressing the ground beneath their feet down ten feet deep. The mountains not far away were completely obliterated, leaving no trace. Above their heads, extraterrestrial stars flashed wildly, threatening to fall... The eight half-step supreme beings felt as if they were a small boat adrift in a raging storm, on the verge of capsizing at any moment.

The Grand Elder was furious!

The Holy Elder gasped for breath, terrified; he had never seen the Grand Elder display such an expression before.

"Elder, please calm your anger. I was momentarily blinded by greed and did something foolish. I beg you to remember our past relationship and give me a chance to reform." He quickly admitted his mistake and begged for forgiveness. Based on his understanding of the Elder, he shouldn't be sentenced to death directly. At most, he would be made to reflect on his mistakes and be imprisoned for several decades.

However, the Grand Elder was uncharacteristically different; the murderous intent in his eyes caused all things in heaven and earth to wither and fall.

Only eight half-step supreme beings know how terrifying an enraged ultimate supreme being can be.

The three beings holding the supreme artifacts stared in shock at the objects in their hands; they were trembling and emitting mournful cries.

"puff!"

The Grand Elder made his move. Without uttering a word, he struck at a half-step Supreme Being. The man was holding a Supreme Sword, but before he could even activate it, he was smashed into a bloody pulp, beyond dead.

This horrifying scene sent chills down the spines of the other seven people.

The other two people holding the Supreme Artifacts hurriedly activated them, frantically channeling divine power into them. Instantly, the Supreme Pressure raged, shaking the heavens and the earth.

Before they could celebrate for long, the Grand Elder arrived with incredible speed, as if he had left the long river of time behind.

"puff!"

Another slap shattered a Supreme Artifact that was in an activated state, turning it into scrap metal. The being that activated the Supreme Artifact was also annihilated, without even having time to let out a scream.

"you……"

The third being holding the supreme artifact gasped in shock.

Is this the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy? His simple and unadorned movements possess terrifying power, capable of annihilating everything. Even the Supreme Artifact couldn't withstand it and was destroyed by his bare hands.

"puff!"

His thoughts froze. The Supreme Bell in his hand was pierced by the Grand Elder's slap, his head was instantly pierced and torn to pieces, and his primordial spirit turned to ashes.

In the blink of an eye, the three half-step supreme beings were instantly killed.

That wasn't the end of it. The Grand Elder then struck again, killing the remaining half-step Supreme beings one by one.

Sunstone swallowed hard. Was this really just an avatar? Even a supreme artifact in its activated state couldn't withstand a slap from an avatar.

Perhaps this is the difference between the ultimate supreme being and an ordinary supreme being.

"Crack!"

A half-step supreme being crushed an ancient talisman. This was the famous interdimensional talisman. Although it was somewhat damaged, it was more than enough for escape.

Just when he thought he could escape, the Grand Elder's terrifyingly large hand reached out, resisting the force of the spatial tearing, and pulled him out, then crushed him on the spot like a chick.

Soon, most of the half-step supreme beings were dead, leaving only one Holy Academy elder remaining.

The latter was terrified and kept admitting his mistakes, hoping that the Grand Elder would give him a chance.

As the shadows fell, the Grand Elder arrived, standing before the Holy Academy Elders, expressionless, looking down upon those at his feet.

The next second, the pleas for mercy stopped abruptly. The Holy Elder stared wide-eyed, and with fear, he embarked on the road to the underworld. His entire head was smashed to pieces, and his brains splattered everywhere.

Sunstone witnessed the whole process. As expected of the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy, his physical body was unparalleled. No matter who he hit, he would just slap them down with one blow, crushing everything in his path. It was simple and efficient.

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy did not clean up the battlefield, as a bloody warning to those who wanted to target his disciples, this was their fate.

"Don't leave the Holy Academy during this period. We'll discuss everything when I return," the Holy Academy's Grand Elder instructed.

Shi Yi nodded.

"Your incarnation time is limited. I'll help you eliminate the last one, then you can go back directly."

Shi Yi was startled. There was someone else?
Before he could ask any questions, the Grand Elder vanished. Then, a terrifying wave erupted, and a furious roar came from afar. This time, the opponent was none other than a Supreme Being.

The sound quickly faded away.

The Elder returned in his true form and caught up with Shi Yi, who had run away.

"Master has slain a Supreme Being?"

"No, that was just a Supreme Being's avatar."
