The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

Chapter 9 Medicinal Bath
This is the benefit of talent and power. When you stand proudly above the clouds, the whole world smiles at you and releases kindness.

And when you fall from the clouds to the bottom of the valley, the whole world will be against you.

Shi Yi understood this principle deeply. His expression remained unchanged as he responded one by one, nodding slightly and signaling with his eyes to the creatures who greeted him.

Although he is only four years old, he doesn't look like a child at all. There is great majesty in his every move, as if he is a god walking in the world.

"Is Brother Yi really only four years old? Why do I feel a trembling of the soul when I face him?" A disciple of the Wuwang Mansion who was in his early teens muttered to himself.

Others also had this feeling. In front of Shi Yi, who had an endless halo above his head, no young disciple did not feel ashamed. In comparison, Shi Yi was the bright moon in the sky, and they were just fireflies on the ground, just to highlight the invincibility of this man with double pupils.

The "stars" in "the moon surrounded by stars" should refer to the top geniuses, who are not qualified yet.

Not long after, the two arrived at their destination, which was a medicinal bathing area specially prepared for the disciples of King Wu's Mansion. Before they actually entered, a strong smell of medicine hit them in the face.

Shi Yi was not the only one who came here for the medicinal bath today. Many children were brought here by their elders and put into the medicine cauldron. They were boiled over a high fire and from time to time, the screams of the children could be heard.

Shi Yi is a disciple who has been carefully trained by the Wuwang Mansion and a future leader of the younger generation. Naturally, he will not be in the medicinal bath area with ordinary disciples.

Under Shi Yuan's guidance, they came to the deepest part of the medicinal bath area.

A long-sealed courtyard was now open. At this moment, there was more than one old man standing inside. They were not clan elders, but ancestors, who were older than Shi Yuan.

"Yier, you're here."

An old man who was sitting cross-legged and had a terrifying aura opened his eyes. He was at the peak of the Inscription Realm and was not far away from being a king or a prince. He was extremely powerful and had not appeared for many years.

Even when Shi Ziling and his wife caused trouble in Prince Wu's Mansion last time, he did not show up. The four great ancestors who took action at that time were not as senior as this old man.

"Shi Yi meets the ancestor."

Shi Yi performed the etiquette of a junior, his double pupils glowing faintly in the slightly dim courtyard, mysterious and deep. Even though there were old ancestors everywhere here, he could remain calm and composed, with an indescribable temperament.

Several ancestors nodded secretly and gave affirmation to Shi Yi's performance.

In fact, during the battle at Prince Wu's Mansion, Shi Yi displayed the extraordinary power of his double pupils. He was able to see the weaknesses of Shi Ziling's magic, and he was also able to connect with Shi Li's aura and bestow the power of his double pupils on Shi Li.

Although in the end, it lost its effect due to the huge gap in cultivation, it was still enough to make people think about it.

When Shi Yuan informed the ancestors about Shi Yi's achievements, they were all moved. Their eyes were focused on Shi Yi as if they were looking at a rare treasure. They realized that they had underestimated the double pupil before. This supreme talent was even more terrifying than they had imagined. Shi Yi's future would be the sea of stars.

"He is indeed an ancient god and a natural born saint." An old ancestor sighed.

"Now, we have to add a natural supreme being." The ancestor who favored Shi Yi continued.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the courtyard froze. The words "Naturally Born Supreme" were too sensitive. Originally, the Wuwang Mansion had two supreme geniuses: a natural saint and a natural supreme. In the end, the natural supreme fell and died young.

In order to prevent Shi Yi from being embarrassed, several ancestors spoke up, changed the subject, and broke the heavy atmosphere.

Then they began to prepare a medicinal bath for Shi Yi.

A tall ancient tripod lies in the center of the courtyard. It is made of unknown material, but it is engraved with many patterns, including flowers, birds, insects, fish, mountains, rivers, etc. It is quite extraordinary.

"This cauldron comes from the famous Medicine Capital. In the past, King Wu took a medicinal bath in this cauldron and forged a deep foundation in Taoism." An old man spoke and explained the origin of the medicine cauldron.

Immediately afterwards, several old men took out a bunch of precious medicines, all of which were prepared strictly according to the medicinal bath recipes mastered by the King Wu's Palace.

There are precious medicines that are very old and full of spiritual energy, rarely seen in the outside world; there are poisonous insects and poisons, which are black and smelly, but are indispensable main medicines; there is also crystal clear precious blood, like agate; and there is also an unknown powder, which is said to be made from the bones of some powerful beast and has miraculous effects.

"This recipe is considered top-notch in the entire Shiguo Palace. This medicinal bath can be said to be the most perfect in the history of the Wuwang Palace. All the medicinal ingredients are used according to the instructions on the recipe, and there are no substitutes.

However, according to legend, the Shi Nation's true ancestral land contains a more powerful elixir formula. Unfortunately, the location of the first ancestral land has been lost and is difficult to find. The old ancestor, sitting cross-legged in front of the medicine cauldron, sighed, feeling a little regretful that he had not provided Shi Yi with the most advanced medicinal bath.

Shi Yi naturally knew what the other party was talking about.

The reason why Shi Hao was able to make such rapid progress and rise so quickly, in addition to his own unparalleled talent, was also due to the medicine cauldron and those pill recipes in Shi Village, which played an indispensable role and helped him a lot invisibly.

The map of the first ancestral land of the Shi Kingdom has fallen into the hands of Shi Ziling. It is impossible for Shi Yi to force the ancestor who sent the map to copy the map and hand it over.

At the moment, the medicinal bath prepared for him by Prince Wu's Mansion is already top-notch and sufficient.

Several ancestors also sighed, then opened the lid of the tripod and let Shi Yi in.

The medicine cauldron was not peaceful at this time. All kinds of poisonous insects and snakes were alive and moving around in the cauldron. Some were even devouring each other or swallowing the precious medicine and blood in the cauldron.

As soon as Shi Yishi stepped into the medicine cauldron, he was targeted by these poisonous insects and poisonous creatures. They were instinctively interested in Shi Yi's flesh and blood. With double pupils and supreme bones in his body, his flesh and blood were considered a precious medicine.

In response to this, Shi Yi did not activate his double pupils or supreme bones to expel them, but let these poisonous creatures crawl all over his body. Before entering the medicine cauldron, several ancestors said that if one has enough endurance, it is best to let these poisonous creatures act as they please, so that they can be better used as medicine and the medicinal bath will have a better effect.

Therefore, Shi Yi endured the pain of being gnawed by poisons just to make the medicinal bath more effective.

After experiencing a period of unbearable suffering, finally, heat came from the bottom of the cauldron. Several ancestors took action, spewing out blazing Taoist fire, roasting the medicine cauldron.

The medicinal bath finally began. Shi Yi could feel that the poisonous creatures biting all over his body could no longer bear it and fell off one after another, melting into the medicinal soup. From time to time, there was the sound of the poisonous creatures exploding, and with each explosion, black and smelly juice would fly everywhere.
