The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

Inside the underground cave, a large number of runes floated in the air above a certain area, shining with an eerie light. Shi Yi arrived with a group of people.

What comes into view is a magnificent and ancient underground palace, cast in metal, and permeated with the aura of immortals, like a giant immortal city.

"Is this the place? The Immortal King's residence?" Cao Yusheng muttered excitedly to himself.

The others were also very excited. With Shi Yi's connection, they could become the first beings to enter the Immortal King's Palace, an unimaginable opportunity.

The colossal, turquoise city, magnificent and imposing, has remained untouched by the passage of time, its luster undiminished, like the most exquisite work of art in the world.

Beyond the city walls, people saw the scene inside the giant city: one mountain after another stood tall, with caves on top, shrouded in an ethereal mist, clearly a blessed land of immortals.

They counted and found there were nine stone mountains in total, which meant there were nine immortal caves. If nothing unexpected happened, these immortal caves would be the greatest opportunity in this place.

"boom!"

A burst of sound echoed in the void as several figures arrived. These were the young supreme beings who had been late to the party. Upon seeing the Azure Gold Giant City and the Immortal Dao Cave, their eyes lit up with excitement.

However, since Shi Yi didn't make a move, no one dared to act rashly.

This situation made them very uncomfortable. In the past, they were always the ones in control, but now they had to be mindful of Shi Yi's feelings. However, the strong are respected, which is an unchanging truth since ancient times, and they could only accept it.

"Squeak!"

Suddenly, the heavy lapis lazuli gate slowly opened, and chaotic energy surged forth from the ever-widening crack.

Behind the lapis lazuli gate is another stone gate, which is also open.

The mysterious Immortal King's Mansion was thus opened to the public, presented without reservation.

This was rather strange. Countless years had passed, and these doors had remained unmoved, yet today they opened on their own. Everyone held their breath, staring intently behind the doors.

Even the dense runes covering the city walls have dispersed; those were restrictions that would bring great calamity to any creature that tried to cross them. Yet now they have dispersed on their own.

The Immortal King's Immortal Abode was born in this way, and it was about to see the light of day.

At the same time, several human figures walked towards the gate of the immortal city. They were wearing armor and surrounded by immortal energy. As they walked, the sound of metal armor clashing could be heard.

They were still holding weapons in their hands, some of which were rusty, but their power was not to be underestimated.

"These are armor and weapons mixed with dark immortal gold?" Cao Yusheng was a discerning person and could tell their extraordinary nature at a glance.

All the creatures present were astonished. Dark Immortal Gold was extremely rare, requiring quantities measured in grains. These humanoid beings, shrouded in armor, possessed such a wealth of resources, truly befitting the residence of an Immortal King.

As they spoke, the humanoid creatures walked out of the city gate and stood side by side, the atmosphere somewhat somber and serious.

"laugh!"

A vertical eye appeared between the eyebrows of a humanoid creature, shooting out a crimson light as it swept towards a young prodigy outside the city—the very youth who was the white Qilin in disguise.

"The purest bloodline of the Immortal Ancients may enter," the humanoid being inside the armor said mechanically.

Upon hearing this, the boy who was actually the white Qilin showed a look of joy. He could sense that there was an opportunity for him in this huge immortal city, a kind of throbbing that came from the depths of his bloodline.

At this moment, a beam of blood-red light shot out from the vertical eye of the humanoid creature and landed on Shi Yi. Then, a Qilin mark appeared from it.

"According to the rules, the Qilin mark allows entry and the attainment of immortality." He said this.

Everyone present was shocked. How could Shi Yi have a Qilin mark inside his body? Could it be that he obtained it when he acquired the Qilin Treasure Technique?
Two people were allowed to enter in succession, and the other cultivators couldn't sit still any longer, wanting to undergo the test of that red light as well.

However, a terrifying beam of light shot out and landed at their feet, stopping them in their tracks—clearly a warning.

"The Qilin mark is also possessed by my clan's Purple Sun Heavenly Lord." At this moment, an aged voice rang out.

People looked toward the source of the sound and saw an old man walking toward it, followed by the pale-faced Zi Ri Tian Jun. He had been given a powerful medicine and was rapidly recovering from his injuries, as his elders did not want him to miss out on a great opportunity.

"The Purple Sun Celestial Lord also has one?"

Many people nodded in agreement; he had indeed used the Qilin Treasure Technique during his battle with Shi Yi.

Enveloped in dense purple energy, the Purple Sun Celestial Lord, having just suffered a crushing defeat, immediately appeared before the crowd. He was quite uncomfortable, but with such a chance to become an immortal being right before him, how could he miss it?

He stepped forward to receive the beam of light from the vertical eye, but to his surprise, he was stopped; there was no "Qilin mark" on his body.

"How is that possible? Why does he have it?" Zi Ri Tianjun looked incredulous. He also knew the Qilin Treasure Technique, so he should have it too.

"No means no. Stop. Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed without mercy."

The cold words made Zi Ri Tian Jun dare not act rashly. The old man in the Purple Mansion was very surprised. Could it be that the so-called "Qilin Mark" is something else?

Just then, Shi Yi said a few words to Bai Qilin. He nodded and walked towards the veteran guardians. He then spoke to them and pleaded with them if they could bring the others inside.

Ultimately, the guardians agreed.

"With the purest bloodline of the Immortal Ancient leading the way, and being descendants of the Immortal Ancient people, not descendants of other realms, they may enter." The guardian activated his vertical eye, scanned the area, and spoke in this manner.

Afterwards, the group entered the city with trepidation.

After the young prodigies entered the city, elders from the three academies—the Immortal Academy, the Holy Academy, and the Heavenly God Academy—appeared outside the city. In addition, some elders from the Longevity Clan were also present. Their Immortal Abodes were wide open, and they had been observing from the shadows. Seeing that the young people had all gone in, they couldn't contain themselves and wanted to try their luck and see if there was any opportunity that belonged to them.

Several guardians brandished their weapons, forming a cross, and blocked their way, saying coldly, "You are too old, your potential has been exhausted, there is no point in you entering the Immortal City. The opportunities here have already been almost used up, we cannot waste them."

The group of old men were extremely embarrassed.

"Isn't this the Immortal King's Immortal Abode? Didn't the Immortal King leave behind any contingency plans?"

"Of course the Immortal King left a backup plan; this is one of the most important trump cards left by the Immortal Ancients," the veteran replied indifferently.

"Then why is it almost exhausted as soon as it was turned on?" an old man asked.

"This is not something you can know. How could ordinary people use one of the most important trump cards of the Immortal Ancient Era? This was left behind by two Immortal Kings, and it must have been prepared for the purest bloodline of the Immortal Ancient Era." An old soldier coldly replied.

The young talents who had just entered the city heard their conversation and all looked at them with fervent eyes.

Two Celestial Kings? This is truly unimaginable. Throughout history, how many people have been able to reach the level of Celestial King? The appearance of two here at once is bound to be astonishing.

However, the guardian of the immortal city mentioned that this was reserved for those with the purest bloodline from the ancient immortal era.

The crowd surged into the city, walking along the wide streets. It was truly vast, like a world unto itself, stretching as far as the eye could see.

"Huh? This is the energy of a divine medicine. It smells so good, it's over there." Cao Yusheng's nose twitched as he smelled the fragrant medicine. He was immediately excited and rushed towards the source.

At the end of a street, a divine pool stands out, its contents shimmering and radiating divine light, leaving one speechless with awe.

Inside the divine pool, three divine lotuses each occupied a corner, each one sacred and radiant, exuding a refreshing medicinal fragrance.

"My God, Soul-Guiding Lotus! Three of them have appeared at once, and they're all rooted in the same pond!" Everyone present was shocked. This was a divine medicine, extremely rare, not something as common as cabbage.

Although the divine medicine is not as unique as the elixir of immortality, and there may be several of them, it is not an easy task to gather all three at once.

Is this the Immortal King's Abode? People swallowed hard.

The medicinal effects of the Soul-Guiding Lotus are well known. It can strengthen the primordial spirit of living beings. If a cultivator's primordial spirit is shattered, it can be restored as long as a trace of the soul remains. It is incredibly heaven-defying.

"With three Soul-Guiding Lotuses converging in one pool, it's hard for the flowing water not to defy the heavens. The opportunity to temper one's primordial spirit is right before our eyes." Many people were overjoyed.

Cao Yusheng was even more direct, rolling up his sleeves and preparing to dive into the divine pool for a refreshing drink.

Just then, Shi Yi reached out and grabbed him.

"Ok?"

Cao Yusheng was puzzled, but he believed that Shi Yi would not speak without reason and there must be a reason.

Someone nearby couldn't resist and jumped into the sacred pool to drink heartily.

"Haha, I'm so happy! The water in the Soul-Guiding Lotus Divine Pool is indeed extraordinary. The medicinal properties of the Soul-Guiding Lotus have been infused into the pool water, making it sweet, delicious, and fragrant."

Seeing this, the others also jumped down, enjoying this rare opportunity. Everyone had a smile on their face and were generous with their praise.

"This medicine smells so good and tastes so good."

Seeing the people's rapturous expressions, Cao Yusheng was tempted and wanted to jump in as well, but he restrained himself.

The next moment, a childish voice came from the ground.

"Who's going mad, drinking my foot bath water?"

"Huh? Who's talking? Is this foot bath water? Are you kidding me?" A nearby cultivator sneered.

"Hey kid, watch out, you're going to step on me." The childish voice came again.

The cultivator looked down at his feet and searched for a long time before finally finding a small creature, as small as a bean, which would be easily overlooked if one did not look closely.

"Hahaha, where did you come from, you little thing? If I'm not careful, I might just stomp you flat." The cultivator laughed, finding it very amusing.

"How dare you mock me? I can send you flying with one punch."

"Hmm, interesting. Such a tiny thing spouts such arrogant words." The cultivator murmured, extending a finger towards the little bean at his feet, originally expecting a crushing and mocking attack.

Unexpectedly, the result was different. The little boy threw a punch and sent the cultivator, whose size was comparable to a behemoth, flying. The cultivator's eyes rolled back and he fainted on the spot.

Cao Yusheng was dumbfounded. He finally understood why Shi Yi had stopped him. Judging from where he was about to go into the pool, it was very likely that he was the one who was knocked away by that little bean.

The creatures present froze, their expressions quite varied.

No one expected that a tiny golden ant, only an inch long, would be so strong.

It stood with its head held high, hands on its hips, looking quite smug.

Everyone burst into laughter. The one who had just been blasted away was a disciple of the Immortal Academy. He had cultivated two strands of immortal energy and was very powerful. But now he had been blasted away and knocked unconscious by a small ant. This would definitely become a stain on his life.

"What are you laughing at? If you're not happy, come at me, I'll knock you all away!" the little ant yelled.

People were amazed and laughed, but this ant was actually quite strong; even a being that had cultivated two streams of immortal energy couldn't withstand a single punch from it.

"You just said this is your foot bath water?"

"Yes, I often bathe here and occasionally wash my feet. Why do you drink my bathwater and foot-washing water?" The golden ant had a smug look on its face.

Upon hearing this, the female cultivators took several steps back, and even the cultivators who were enjoying their drinks in the divine pool felt just as uncomfortable as if they had eaten.

Many people want to beat him up.

However, the young supreme beings all looked solemn and had noticed something amiss.

The golden ant has many extraordinary features. Its hands are similar to those of a human, with five fingers. It has two raised bumps on its head, which are very similar to the "horns" of the legendary horned ant. The reason why it has not yet formed "horns" is because it is still young and has not yet grown.

"Skyhorn Ant".

Someone revealed the species of the golden ant, which immediately caused a burst of exclamations.

The Heavenly Horned Ant, one of the Ten Fiends, is known as the ultimate in strength. One of the Holy Academy's treasures is the blood of this race, which has already been distributed. Now, there is actually one alive here. In other words, this is a mobile blood bag of the ultimate in strength that has not yet grown up. If we can befriend it, we will definitely not lack the blood of the ultimate in strength in the future.

Thinking of this, some cultivators immediately stepped forward to try and get closer to him.

Cao Yusheng was practically drooling, his eyes were a deep green, and his smile was terrifying.

"Hey, fatso, what kind of look is that? Want to get punched away by me?"

Cao Yusheng was speechless. Even though the Heavenly Horned Ant was young, it was incredibly strong. If it really took a punch, its fate would be the same as that of the unconscious cultivator.

At this moment, several veterans walked over, holding cold weapons, their eyes indifferent as they surveyed the proud young men present.

"There are opportunities here, and you can obtain them based on your own abilities. However, the most core Immortal King inheritance belongs to the descendants of the two Immortal Kings with the purest bloodlines. Those with the 'Qilin Mark' can also go. How much you can obtain will be determined by the will of the Immortal Kings," the leading veteran said.

These words greatly disappointed the cultivators present; they didn't even have the right to compete for the Immortal King's inheritance.

People looked at the boy who was transformed from the golden little ant and the white qilin, as well as Shi Yi, the owner of the "qilin mark," with envy.

"Seniors, are you immortals?" a young supreme being asked.

"We are just a few veterans. Back then, we fought a bloody battle that wiped out the world. We struggled to this point with our remaining willpower and turned ourselves into puppets to be the last guardians."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a surge of respect.

“Senior, the bloodline of the Immortal Ancient is indeed important, but later generations are not necessarily inferior to their predecessors. The main force of this great war is among us. How can you be prejudiced against us and prevent us from inheriting the Immortal King’s legacy?”

“Alright, then we’ll give you a chance. Whoever can move the Primordial Mother Cauldron will be recognized by us,” the veteran said.

Suddenly, a young prodigy exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing?"

As everyone looked over, they saw a figure calmly and slowly cut down three Soul-Guiding Lotuses and put them into a jade box. After doing all this, the divine pool, which had been shining brightly just moments before, dimmed considerably.

"Are you talking to me?"

Taiyin Shiyi asked calmly.

The prodigy's face turned deathly pale instantly. In his haste to see the Soul-Guiding Lotus being plucked, he had spoken rudely to Taiyin Shiyi. Now, he regretted it. Even the young supreme beings dared not face Shiyi directly, let alone him.

"Sorry, I misspoke just now."

Shi Yi glanced at him but didn't make things difficult for him. He also ignored the fiery stares from all around him.

The veterans remained expressionless.

"As I just said, all opportunities are earned through one's own strength, with the exception of the core inheritance of the Immortal King." (End of Chapter)
