The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

Chapter 409 Five Lifetimes in the Mortal World

His cultivation had grown stronger, but he couldn't withstand the relentless passage of time.

His life had finally come to an end. He had lived for 52,000 years in his first life, which was already quite extraordinary. Shi Yi had no other choice but to start his second life.

In his first life, Shi Yi meticulously studied the first Dao Beacon, gaining immense benefits and determining how to proceed on the path to Nirvana.

This section describes the transformation of life, from the cicada shedding its shell to the butterfly emerging from its cocoon; the evolution and transformation of many organisms can provide great inspiration.

Shi Yi began to gather his life force, concentrating all the life force within him in one place. Instantly, that place became a chaotic void, the place where all things originated and were born. Even though he was on the verge of death, the life force within him was beyond the imagination of others.

At the same time, his physical body was withering and decaying, becoming a shell, a cocoon.

Various chants emanated from the shell and cocoon, stirring the great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and an undying, eternal energy permeated the air.

half year later.

As old lives gradually faded away and new lives began to be born, Shi Yi seemed to have undergone a rebirth, his whole being transformed and he became full of vitality again.

Layer upon layer of feathers fell away, leaving traces of metamorphosis everywhere.

"Crack!"

The old shell cracked open, and a pair of large, crystal-clear hands emerged. Then, Shi Yi appeared, so perfect that he was flawless, like the most flawless work of art sculpted by the heavens.

He thus began his second life, his surging blood and fiery spirit almost illuminating the entire universe.

At the same moment, on the other side of the universe, Shi Hao stopped what he was doing and looked in the direction where Shi Yi's main body was.

Over the past six months, he uncovered more than a dozen traps set by Shi Yi, only to find them all empty-handed. The real Shi Yi had secretly completed his rebirth elsewhere.

Sensing the incomparably powerful blood and spirit light, Shi Hao sighed slightly, knowing that Shi Yi had made a qualitative breakthrough. Fortunately, his own path could also continue to grow stronger; otherwise, he would definitely not be able to keep up with Shi Yi's pace.

Although both are within the realm of humanity, the pinnacle of the ultimate path and becoming an immortal in the mortal world are truly two different concepts. Human beings who stand at the level of becoming an immortal in the mortal world can completely sweep away everything at the pinnacle of the ultimate path.

"In this life, I am already 22,000 years old, and my life force has reached its peak, but it will also begin to decline," Shi Hao muttered to himself.

His second life was about to begin its decline, while Shi Yi's second life was just beginning.

Shi Hao was not discouraged, because he knew what the Path to Immortality in the Mortal World was like. Perhaps he and Shi Yi would experience different things, but the final result would be the same: to be fearless of the passage of time and to be impervious to the degenerate age.

Suddenly, the void trembled, and Shi Yi arrived. He stood not far from Shi Hao, smiling as he looked at his younger brother who had been busy for nothing.

"Little brother, what are you doing here? Digging for wild vegetables?" Shi Yi asked with a smile.

"Hmph, one day I'll catch you." Shi Hao snorted coldly, and without further ado, he walked away.

His second life was about to begin its decline, and it was time to prepare for the start of his third life. Of course, Shi Hao already had a plan for how to live out his third life and had made ample preparations. What he needed to prepare now was how to prevent Shi Yi from spying on him.

Shi Yi watched Shi Hao leave. He naturally knew what his younger brother was going to do, but it was basically impossible to stop him.

In the years that followed, Shi Yi set his sights on the second beacon. Like the first one, he also skimmed through it without really appreciating the scenery along the way. In fact, the opportunity to become stronger was right beside him, but he simply overlooked it.

He admired the scenery above the second beacon, and experienced the changes brought about by the increase in his Qi and blood. Every day he could sense that his cultivation was increasing and becoming stronger. Although it was small and insignificant, it would become terrifying over time.

It's hard to imagine what kind of situation they would reach if they kept getting stronger life after life.

This life is a transformation of Yin and Yang, where extreme Yin gives rise to Yang and extreme Yang transforms into Yin. This principle is not unfamiliar to Shi Yi. He is a person with double pupils, and his eyes are the embodiment of the Yin and Yang. He has long been familiar with this great Dao.

Now, he has begun to conduct more in-depth research and to pursue the ultimate enlightenment. Occasionally, he will take out a tea of ​​enlightenment and savor it slowly with the morning dew between heaven and earth.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, twenty thousand years have passed.

Shi Yi is 72,000 years old. Only 20,000 years have passed since his second life. He is still very young, and his vitality is still growing.

Shi Hao's second incarnation was 42,000 years old. He was so old that he had lost all his teeth and was on the verge of death.

At this moment, he sat cross-legged in a place of great potential, about to begin his assault on his third incarnation.

Shi Hao, with his white hair, looked up at the sky with a slight smile on his lips.

"After all that careful planning, let's see how you manage to come here and check in this time."

The next moment, he began a profound transformation. The process of the Footprint Emperor's nine incarnations becoming immortals, which Shi Yi had given him, greatly inspired Shi Hao. Based on his own situation, he formulated a path of transformation. Not to mention the third incarnation, he had already chosen the path to the eighth incarnation.

At this moment, in the universe, Shi Yi stood within the celestial light of ascension, his entire body radiating a sacred glow. His double pupils were extremely deep, displaying a terrifying vision of the destruction of the universe and the birth of all things.

He scanned every corner of the universe, searching for Shi Hao's whereabouts.

"Little brother, you're not transforming as fast as I am. Can you hold out until I find you?" Shi Yi chuckled.

He quickly found his target, but Shi Yi knew that Shi Hao was not among them; he was trying to create a false impression, just like he had.

A path to immortality appeared beneath his feet, stretching all the way into the depths of the universe, leading directly to that mysterious formation.

"boom!"

Shi Yi arrived, exuding an aura that seemed to encompass the ages and reign supreme over the world. Two beams of light shot from his eyes, instantly shattering and disintegrating the illusionary formation.

He then went to the next location, where the magic array would be destroyed by the previous one, and then created by the next, one link after another.

"boom!"

Another illusion has crumbled.

And so, Shi Yi destroyed one great formation after another, finally approaching his destination. His combat power was too great; nothing could stop him.

At this critical moment, Shi Hao also reached the most crucial moment. Yin and Yang converged, and he sought change amidst the extremes, struggling to create a new physique and primordial spirit.

"Buzz!"

Amidst radiant light, Shi Hao succeeded; he lived out his third life through this path.

A vibrant life force surged within his body, and his blood flowed like a ceaseless river through his veins. This feeling was truly wonderful, proving that he was still alive. Shi Hao felt reborn. If no one else were present, his mood would have been exceptionally good; however, that was unlikely.

He spotted Shi Yi not far away, who was watching him with great interest.

"So many magic arrays couldn't stop you?" Shi Hao was speechless.

“I told you, your brother will be there for every one of your transformations.” Shi Yi took out a recording stone and waved it at Shi Hao.

The latter was furious, but helpless, and could only place his hopes for countering Shi Yi in the future.

He didn't believe Shi Yi could win every time.

The images on the rough stone wall continue to unfold, two different times and spaces, one place, two different groups of beings expressing the same sentiment.

The Twin Stones are truly extraordinary. They have turned the cruel end times into a battleground. In the vast world, who dares to say they can be like them?
Looking across the ages, it's hard to find many beings who can compare to them. What does it mean to be the protagonist of heaven and earth? This is it.

Compared to these two brothers, even Immortal Kings and Giants are nothing. They were certain that the Twin Stones would definitely attain Immortal King status and were genuine Immortal King seedlings.

Time flies, the Dharma-ending Age continues, and great eras change. Occasionally, beings reach the pinnacle of the Dao, but it is only a moment of glory. At most, they can take the elixir of immortality and live another life. Compared with those two beings who pursued the path to immortality in the mortal world, they are worlds apart.

In this world, their legends will always exist, and every seeker of truth will follow in their footsteps, to challenge them, and to seek their guidance.

The Twin Stones were generous and would teach them the path to immortality, but none of them were able to achieve Nirvana.

Shi Yi guessed that it was because the Great Dao transformed from the fallen Immortal Kings and True Immortals in the world had not dissipated and was too terrifying.

Not every being who reaches the pinnacle of the ultimate path can be compared to the Twin Stones of yesteryear.

"What a cruel era," Shi Yi sighed, shaking his head.

At this time, he had reached the advanced age of 100,000 years, and his second life had lasted for 48,000 years. Amazingly, he was still on the rise and had not yet reached the peak of his life.

Finally, two thousand years later, when Shi Yi was 102,000 years old, his vital energy reached its peak in this life, and after that, it would begin to decline.

This is terrifying; it's only the second life, and it will take 50,000 years to reach the peak.

Shi Hao is in the 30,000th year of the third generation, and is still in the rising phase.

The two stood on the mountaintop, gazing at each other from afar. Their mere confrontation stirred up a terrifying storm.

They both firmly believed that they would live longer than each other in this lifetime, and the two began a competition from afar.

They had a great understanding with each other and did not use any other means, relying solely on their powerful cultivation and terrifying blood energy to fight against the Old Man of Time.

Time passed slowly as they fought each other across the distance—one thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years… ten thousand years… twenty thousand years.

The two fought from the peak of their vitality until they were old and frail. Their long, black hair was gone, leaving only pale white hair. Even as strong as they were, they could not defy time. It was still not enough.

Finally, at the age of 128,000, Shi Hao could no longer endure it. He sighed inwardly and began the transformation to attempt his fourth life. In his third life, he lived for 56,000 years.

On the other side, Shi Yi also couldn't hold on any longer. He had only been forcing himself to keep going, unwilling to start before his younger brother.

Seeing Shi Hao begin to transform, he no longer held on to his fate and used the Yin-Yang Transformation he had been studying for a long time to break through to the third life.

At this moment, Shi Yi had already traversed the second landmark, experiencing all the scenery there and gaining endless insights. His second ascension became even more complete, his cultivation surged dramatically, and he became terrifyingly powerful.

The most familiar Yin-Yang transformation naturally occurred extremely violently, unlike the previous life transformation which was gentle. In just three months, Shi Yi completed it. Chaotic energy permeated his body, and the previously withered parts reappeared with vitality. Then, the astonishing phenomenon of ascension illuminated the dim universe.

He lived a third life. His lifespan in the previous life was 76,000 years. What will the third life be like? It will definitely be even longer.

Shi Yi returned to his peak state, as if he had been reborn. He looked towards the other side of the universe. Shi Hao's transformation journey was not even halfway done. He smiled slightly and took a step towards that side.

Two years later, Shi Hao underwent a complete transformation, shedding his old body and living a second life, entering the ranks of the fourth generation.

"I have lived four lifetimes in this vast imperial realm, 128,000 years. My family and friends, how are you all?" He was filled with emotion, his longing for his relatives and friends overwhelming.

If it weren't for his cousin Shi Yi constantly fighting against him in this life, he would have developed these feelings long ago.

"Yes, it's been 128,000 years." Upon hearing this, Shi Yi also felt a pang of longing for his family.

Since following the Sun God Tree to the Upper Realm, Shi Yi has never returned. It's not that he's heartless, but that he can't stop. On the path of striving for immortality, there's no turning back. Now, he's pursuing the path of immortality in the mortal world and success is in sight. Every realm he'll reach in the future will require endless years of struggle and tempering. It's time to go back and take a look.

As a young man, he left the Martial King's Mansion and fought against heaven and earth, sweeping away all his peers. Even when he fought his way to the Upper Realm and other realms, he was invincible and unparalleled. Now, he has returned to the Lower Realm and is already invincible in the world. I wonder what kind of scene he will be in. His clansmen should be extremely proud of him.

Shi Yi thought to himself.

He thought of his confidante, Bai Zhimiao, who was now just a body; her spirit was imprisoned in a dark cage, and he had no way to rescue her yet. The witch was cultivating in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and Shi Yi had already found her a good successor. At this moment, the golden figure appeared in his mind.

Shi Yi chuckled self-deprecatingly. When a man achieves success, he can never forget the women who helped him along the way, especially since he and Lin Ni had a connection back in Dilu.

"You still came." Shi Hao sighed.

"Yes, I'm here." Shi Yi nodded slightly.

They looked at each other speechlessly.

In the years that followed, the two fought back and forth, neither willing to back down. In the process, their cultivation levels steadily increased, gradually approaching that legendary realm.

Two hundred and thirty-two thousand years later, Shi Yi lived his fifth life. Over the next hundred thousand years, his vital energy continued to grow slowly until he was four hundred and fifty thousand years old. At that moment, he stood at the highest peak of his life. All five Dao markers had been rebuilt and reached their most perfect state.

He was certain that he had reached the point of becoming an immortal in the mortal world, and that time could no longer leave a trace on him. With time no longer affecting him, there was no further progress to be made, and the only option was to attempt to break through to the realm of immortality.

His younger brother, Shi Hao, is still in his seventh life, and is still a little short. He has not taken the elixir of immortality, nor has he fought against the will of heaven to become a battle immortal. His lifespan in each life is at its maximum and keeps increasing.

Suddenly, Shi Yi appeared where Shi Hao was sitting. He was filled with the light of the mortal world and had not yet undergone the final transformation, so he still belonged to the realm of humanity.

"I'm leaving, little brother. I can't accompany you in your rebirth." (End of Chapter)
