The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

"grandfather……"

Lin Ni acted coquettishly towards the Heavenly Emperor, who looked at her with doting eyes. The two of them were very happy together.

Shi Yi remained silent, watching quietly from the side.

He knew that this might be one of the few happy moments Lin Ni had in the era of the fallen emperor.

This is truly cruel for her; she had just reunited with her loved ones, only to be separated from them by death.

Shi Yi sighed softly, feeling a little sad. Although he hadn't spent much time with Lin Ni, he could tell that she was a friend he could truly befriend.

Suddenly, the Heavenly Emperor spoke, mentioning Shi Yi.

"Are you Shi Yi, young friend?"

"Yes, Shi Yi greets Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor." He bowed to the imposing middle-aged man.

The Heavenly Emperor nodded slightly, his gaze towards Shi Yi revealing undisguised admiration. Such a being could discern at a glance whether a young man was truly exceptional.

Without a doubt, Shi Yi is the purest gold, shrouded in celestial light, surrounded by the aura of the mortal world, sacred and transcendent.

Most importantly, he bears the marks of time, cause and effect, and destiny, which makes even a knowledgeable being like the Heavenly Emperor take notice.

Next, the Heavenly Emperor did not bring up any heavy topics, nor did he inquire about Shi Yi's origins. A being like him could see through eternity at a glance, so how could he not see the extraordinary nature of Shi Yi? He simply did not want to put Shi Yi in a difficult position, as many things involving time were taboo and could not be spoken of.

He was like a kind elder, chatting and laughing with Shi Yi and Lin Ni, telling them about his past battles and adventures, the people and things he had encountered over the years, and how he told them in an extremely interesting way, making Lin Ni laugh. Shi Yi also listened attentively with a smile on his face, as if he had experienced those things with this Heavenly Emperor.

He then suggested that Shi Yi talk about his life experiences.

After a moment's thought, the latter removed the parts that couldn't be told and then recounted his story in detail.

Finally, it was Lin Ni's turn. As a princess of the Heavenly Court, she held a high position and was respected and revered by the world. Naturally, she had not experienced as much as Shi Yi.

"The world of mortals is colorful and unforgettable. If I had known back then that there was such a thing as becoming an immortal in the mortal world, I certainly wouldn't have rushed into the realm of immortals and missed the best opportunity to accumulate the foundation of the Dao."

However, I may not succeed. I might not even be able to overcome the hurdle of the realm of humanity. If that happens, there will be no Heavenly Emperor.

"Since you have such an opportunity, you must cherish it and seize it." The Heavenly Emperor looked at Shi Yi and said this.

Shi Yi nodded.

Later, Lin Ni's grandfather asked about Shi Yi's cultivation system. He had long wanted to learn about this system, as the ethereal light emanating from Shi Yi alone demonstrated its extraordinary nature.

Coupled with Shi Yi's terrifyingly powerful combat strength, the Heavenly Emperor became even more curious.

It should be noted that back then, he and four other supreme giants worked together to create the Immortal Realm Law, which ushered in a magnificent era and established the brilliant and glorious Heavenly Court.

Now, Shi Yi has created a cultivation system all by himself, and in terms of its amazingness, it seems to surpass even the Immortal Realm Method. The concept of the system is even more extraordinary, which amazes the Heavenly Emperor.

Shi Yi generously demonstrated his ascension system, explaining in detail everything from its conception and development process to his feelings during cultivation and the Dao fruits he obtained after ascension. The Heavenly Emperor nodded repeatedly as he listened, while Lin Ni, standing to the side, was full of admiration.

To them, this system was like a castle in the air without foundation, so ethereal and unattainable that even if they knew the cultivation process of this system, it would be difficult to replicate.

As the Heavenly Emperor, the middle-aged man had never seen such a strange technique before, as if it belonged only to Shi Yi.

"To be able to construct a bridge in the void, leading to that ethereal other shore, is truly a genius idea. All five of us combined are no match for you alone," the Heavenly Emperor exclaimed, his gaze towards Shi Yi filled with even greater admiration.

The group then discussed the system further.

As the event drew to a close, the Heavenly Emperor finally let out a sigh. He looked at Shi Yi, then at Lin Ni.

"Perhaps in the future, this world will be turned upside down, and there will be no light of day. Even a behemoth like the Heavenly Court will fall, and the solid and immortal Immortal Realm will be split in two. At that time, I hope that the two of you will still be here."

"Grandfather, why do you say that?" Lin Ni frowned.

"It's just a hypothesis," the Heavenly Emperor smiled.

"Yes, Lin Ni and I will live on and witness the passage of time and the changes in ancient history."

"If she is in trouble, I will not stand idly by." Shi Yi knew that the Heavenly Emperor was speaking to him, so he responded in this way.

"Haha, I'm relieved to hear that." The Heavenly Emperor nodded and pointed at Shi Yi.

In an instant, the insights gained from the life of a Heavenly Emperor swept over Shi Yi's heart like a torrent.

This is equivalent to inheriting the mantle of this Heavenly Emperor, allowing Shi Yi to examine the myriad paths of the heavens from the perspective of the Heavenly Emperor.

This extraordinary opportunity struck Shi Yi like a thunderbolt, as if a great bell were ringing in his ears. He instantly entered a state of enlightenment, and various wondrous phenomena appeared around him, including the light of flying immortals, the ascension to immortality, and countless celestial beings...

“Grandfather…” Lin Ni was taken aback.

"These insights are enough to save him from endless years of arduous cultivation, like a spiritual infusion. You can't do it; only his Dao heart can withstand it without affecting his foundation," the Heavenly Emperor explained.

After a long while, Shi Yi slowly woke up. His eyes were incredibly bright, and his aura became even more profound.

This time, he gained a great deal, his cultivation level improved significantly, and he will soon be able to reach the pinnacle of the ultimate path.

"Thank you, God!"

Shi Yi bowed to the Heavenly Emperor, knowing that this was the Heavenly Emperor entrusting Lin Ni to his care.

"Go, a storm is coming, you should leave." The Heavenly Emperor spoke with a hidden meaning.

Shi Yi nodded, took his leave, and departed.

"Go if you want to," the Heavenly Emperor said to Lin Ni with a smile.

The latter blushed slightly, but did not refute, and flapped the golden wings on his back, heading in the direction Shi Yi had left.

Soon after, she saw Shi Yi standing there waiting for her.

"You knew I was coming?"

Shi Yi smiled without saying a word. "I'm afraid we won't see each other for a while after this departure," he said.

"Are you leaving the Immortal Realm?" Lin Ni asked in confusion.

Shi Yi nodded. As the main base of the Heavenly Court, the Immortal Realm was definitely the most terrifying place where the Little Emperor's downfall would occur. Staying here would make it easy to be affected and die without a burial place.

Although he was already very powerful, no longer a minor cultivator who could stand on his own, he was still so weak in the face of the battle between Immortal Kings, like a mayfly. Even a slight aftershock of the battle could reduce him to ashes.

Therefore, Shi Yi had to leave the central area of ​​the Little Emperor's Fall and seek refuge in other worlds.

Even if they go to other worlds, whether they can survive unscathed is still unknown, because this calamity is not just a matter for the Immortal Realm, but for all the myriad worlds. In essence, it is a harvest of this place by darkness.

After the catastrophe, it is feared that no immortal being will survive. Even if they hide, they will probably not escape and will be purged.

The net catches big fish, but misses some small ones. After harvesting one crop, you wait for the next year's harvest to continue, always leaving some fish fry behind.

Human beings are like fish fry.

Beings like Shi Yi, who are about to reach the pinnacle of the human realm, are actually quite dangerous. They might be exposed and become sacrifices, though not as dazzling as immortal beings.

Fortunately, he is somewhat special and has a certain degree of confidence in surviving the catastrophe of the Fallen Emperor.

“It’s fine to go to other worlds. I think it won’t be long before you reach the top of the Heavenly Ranking. I’ll definitely come to watch when that happens,” Lin Ni replied with a smile.

Shi Yi did not answer, but only said one sentence.

"We will meet again someday, and by then, things may have changed. Anyway, take care. This flower is for you."

A phantom Dao flower appeared in Lin Ni's hand, emanating a mysterious aura.

Shi Yi turned and left. The next time they met would probably be in the chaotic ancient era of later generations. He guessed that it wouldn't be long before the Heavenly Emperor would seal his granddaughter away, and she would be lost in a dream for eternity. When she awoke again, it would be countless years later.

Recalling the scene when they first met in the Primordial Treasure Realm, he shook his head and smiled. At that time, he had not planned to go to the Upper Realm so soon, but by a twist of fate, he was taken to the Upper Realm by Lin Ni.

Watching Shi Yi leave, Lin Ni suddenly felt a sense of loss, as if this parting would last for eternity. His words sounded like a farewell.

She turned and left, returning to her grandfather's side, where she voiced her questions.

"He is shrouded in mystery, even I cannot see through him. However, in the distant future, you and he will meet again," the Heavenly Emperor comforted him.

……

Shi Yi left the ancestral land of the Heavenly Emperor Clan. He inquired along the way and found the Quasi-Immortal King Lun Kun. Although his participation in the competition for the quota in the "River of Time" was at the behest of the Eternal Immortal King, the care that Quasi-Immortal King Lun Kun showed him was genuine, and the other party appreciated him from the bottom of his heart.

Shi Yi naturally couldn't simply leave after receiving such a debt of gratitude.

"Shi Yi, good lad! I heard you overpowered everyone, even overshadowing the number one spot on the Heavenly Ranking. I was right about you back then; you truly are a seed of Heavenly Emperor." Upon seeing him, Quasi-Immortal King Lun Kun immediately stepped forward excitedly, patted him on the shoulder, and showed no airs of a Quasi-Immortal King. Clearly, he regarded Shi Yi as his own son.

Shi Yi was not happy; instead, he felt somewhat sad. Would he ever see this quasi-immortal king who cared for and looked after him again in future generations?
“Senior, a great calamity is coming. The Heavenly Court will fall, and there will be bloodshed and chaos. I hope you will prepare early and get through it. That way, we can meet again in the future. Otherwise…” Shi Yi spoke directly, without any beating around the bush.

Lun Kun was taken aback. He was about to make a joke to change the subject because he thought it was impossible for anything to happen to the Heavenly Court. But when he saw Shi Yi’s solemn and sad expression, he realized that things were not so simple.

"What did you say? Is this true? Impossible, how could the Heavenly Court fall?" he said incredulously.

"Senior, thank you for taking care of me all this time." Shi Yi said gratefully, then stretched out his palm, on which was a phantom Dao flower, filled with the power of time, space, destiny, and cause and effect.

This is a secret technique that can conceal a person's secrets. He doesn't know if the secret technique he uses at his level can conceal the secrets of a quasi-immortal king, but how will he know if he doesn't try?

“This Dao flower…” Lun Kun could see its extraordinary and heaven-defying nature, as if it did not belong to the human world.

"This is all I can do, senior. Farewell, take care." Shi Yi bid farewell and left.

Only the Quasi-Immortal King Lun Kun remained standing there, motionless for a long time, lost in thought.

Afterwards, Shi Yi met that supreme giant—the Eternal Immortal King.

"You came."

The Eternal Immortal King sat cross-legged amidst the pervasive chaos, his body enveloped in a layer of immortal light. Near the immortal light, even time seemed to stand still, like an eternal and immortal pure land.

"Shi Yi pays his respects to the Immortal King."

He bowed and was about to use that secret technique again to condense an illusory Dao flower to present to the Eternal Immortal King when, unexpectedly, this supreme giant spoke directly, interrupting Shi Yi's actions.

"No need. I already know everything. The torrent of history is so cruel. Struggling is useless. Go, go and see the magnificent scenery of that supreme realm for me." The Eternal Immortal King spoke softly, calm and serene.

"Immortal King..."

"This is the legacy I created. Take it and pass it on to a destined person in the future. In this way, it won't be forgotten without a trace. It can be considered a kind of eternity." The Eternal Immortal King pointed his finger, and the legacy of an unparalleled giant appeared in Shi Yi's heart.

"Shi Yi understands. Take care, Immortal King."

He could only say goodbye and then leave.

Shi Yi's heart was heavy. He left the Immortal Realm through the teleportation array of the Immortal Realm Heavenly Court. He did not go too far, but chose a large world adjacent to the Immortal Realm. This was not a random choice by Shi Yi, but a whim, a choice of fate.

The interdimensional teleportation array emitted a dazzling light, and Shi Yi appeared, his eyes darting around as he gazed at this world.

In this era, the Heavenly Court ruled over all the heavens and myriad realms. There were no alien realms or burial realms in the world. He estimated that the emergence of these two worlds should be after the fall of the Little Emperor. When the dust settled and the fish fry flourished, two boxes, that is, two ancient artifacts of origin, would come from the other side of the Boundary Sea to all the heavens and myriad realms, creating two powerful races.

The world where Shi Yi was standing at this moment, according to his memory of its layout, should be the predecessor of the Burial Domain.

He used a secret technique, guided by fate, to head in one direction, and finally stopped on an inconspicuous mountaintop.

"Is this right here?"

Shi Yi began to arrange things around the mountain, constantly planting secret techniques to conceal the secrets of heaven. Soon, the place became illusory and chaotic, and the secrets of heaven became unpredictable.

Without hesitation, he went to the hollowed-out mountaintop and lay down in a coffin. The coffin wasn't just associated with funerals; it was also a fortress for the strong to rest in. (End of Chapter)
