Longevity in Two Worlds: Double Pupils Are the Road to Invincibility

Shi Yi completely ignored the Saintess Wusheng's pleas for mercy.

From the moment he made his move, he showed no mercy. And when he revealed his secrets, it meant he intended to completely capture the Holy Maiden of No Life and not give her a chance to escape.

To him, the dead, lifeless saintess was the only good lifeless saintess.

Under the devouring influence of the red and blue chains, the future Buddha images of all beings dissipated first, and the power of faith within them was also devoured by the double pupils.

Then came the Yin spirit of the Unborn Saintess, which gradually dissipated before Shi Yi, revealing crystal-clear thought crystals. The moment these thought crystals appeared, Shi Yi's thoughts stirred slightly, and then he continued to let his double pupils devour them, until they finally disappeared completely.

At the same time, a wave of unfamiliar memories flooded into Shi Yi's mind.

Compared to the Yin spirit, the thought crystal contains more memories.

Shi Yi was not surprised by this, because he had experienced it before.

When he went out to cultivate and was attacked by a strange Yin spirit, he used the Double Pupil Soul Devouring Tribulation Light to devour the opponent and even obtained some of the opponent's memories.

However, compared to these, he still obtained more information from the demon crystal by chance from the Night Fiend Serpent Demon, which is why Shi Yi chose to directly devour the thought crystal of the Unborn Saintess.

The complete dissipation of the thought crystals signifies the utter death of the Holy Maiden of No Life, beyond anyone's ability to save her.

Now, as his cultivation of Daoist arts improves, the power of the Soul-Devouring Calamity Light also increases, allowing him to gain more related memories while devouring the Yin spirits of others.

Just like how the Unborn Saintess obtained the "Sutra of the Future of All Beings".

Compared to Shi Yi, the experience of the Unborn Saintess obtaining the "Sutra of the Future of All Beings" is even more legendary, truly making her a person with great fortune.

The Unborn Saintess accidentally obtained a Buddhist scripture that had been circulating in the Great Putuo Temple. While reading the scripture at night, the scripture happened to catch fire. When she extinguished the flames, she discovered a hidden layer and obtained a gold leaf from it, on which was written the "Sutra of the Future of All Beings".

The whole experience was both incredibly legendary and remarkably simple.

Compared to the Holy Maiden Wusheng, Shi Yi's process of obtaining the Mahayana Tathagata Sutra was more complicated.

It can be said that he did not have double pupils or modern technology. Even if he happened to obtain the Bodhi seed, he would not be able to obtain the Mahayana Tathagata Sutra. He could only treat it as an ordinary Buddhist rosary, just like the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Compared to the other, the Holy Maiden of No Birth had a stronger destiny, while he had forcibly seized his destiny.

"Song Muchan, the Eternal Mother, the Eternal Saintess, and the Ninth Princess of the Daye Dynasty, she has so many identities."

"But now that the person is dead, having any identity is useless."

"Besides Song Muchan, there are also remnants of the previous dynasty active within the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"No wonder that during natural disasters, some people would cause trouble, stir up the emotions of the people, and even incite them to rebel. It turns out that there are still remnants of the previous dynasty involved."

Shi Yi saw a lot of information in the memories of the Unborn Saintess. Some things that he didn't understand before, he now understood.

When there is sufficient information, all the fog will dissipate and the truth will be revealed.

Shi Yi had quite a few experiences after arriving at the Central World.

"The Wusheng Sect and the Demonic Sect have actually joined forces with the Xuan Niao Merchant Alliance, first targeting the imperial court, and now they want to target the Taiyi Sect."

"Even the Divine Might Marquis Zhao Qingcang of the imperial court died at their hands. Before his death, he used a secret demonic technique to unleash the power of a Celestial Martial Saint and took away an elder of the demonic sect."

"These people are all extraordinary, each possessing many hidden strengths."

"Fortunately, Song Muchan used up many of her trump cards and was injured when she fought Zhao Qingcang before!"

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for me to win her over."

“If she is too far away from me, even if I use the Double Pupil Soul Devouring Light, she might still dodge it.”

Shi Yi used the Soul-Devouring Calamity Light Divine Power within his Double Pupils, which was extremely powerful, but it required a certain distance before he could unleash it.

The closer the distance, the less likely the opponent is to escape; however, if the distance is too far, the opponent may sense something is wrong and attempt to flee.

This is also why Shi Yi did not use the Soul Devouring Calamity Light Divine Power at the beginning.

His confrontation with the Holy Maiden of No Life also helped to bring the two of them closer.

When the Saintess of No Life faced him head-on and the two were not far apart, Shi Yi used the Double Pupil Soul Devouring Calamity Light Divine Power, giving the Saintess of No Life no time to react.

During this process, he also gained a deeper understanding of the power of the Sitting in Oblivion Realm.

After devouring the Yin spirit of the Unborn Saintess and obtaining her memories, he knew even more!
Compared to the Dharma Aspect realm, the Daoist cultivation to the Sitting in Oblivion realm requires the condensation of thoughts. On each thought lies the practitioner's beliefs and convictions, enabling multitasking.

In a sense, every thought of a master of Daoist arts possesses the combat power of a master in the state of forgetting oneself, and can even possess another person's body.

These thoughts, when combined, can unleash even greater combat power, widening the gap between them and cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Realm.

The Unborn Saintess was able to use the power of the Yin Spirit to condense the future Buddha image of all beings driven by the power of faith. Besides the remaining power of faith in her body, this was also due to her many thoughts. Otherwise, an ordinary person in the state of meditation would not be able to bear the power to drive the future Buddha image of all beings.

"When the Double Pupils devoured the Yin Spirit and thoughts of the Unborn Saintess, although it absorbed most of the power, a small portion of the power was still fed back to my Yin Spirit."

“A Daoist master at the Silent Meditation Realm has accumulated far more Yin Spirit than I do, even if it’s just a portion of the power that’s been fed back to me.”

"If I fully absorb these reciprocated powers, my cultivation of Dao techniques may be able to break through to the mid-stage of the Dharma Aspect realm."

"And the sword intent on the sword monument also has a tempering effect on my Yin spirit."

"Perhaps I can use this to consolidate my cultivation, or even advance further."

Shi Yi felt the power returning from the double pupils, and joy appeared in his eyes.

The main reason he attacked the Holy Maiden of No Life was because the two of them had a grudge against each other.

His use of the power of the double pupils was not only due to the difference in strength between the two, but also because he wanted to test the supernatural abilities of the double pupils.

After joining the Taiyi Sect, he rarely encountered enemies who could use the power of double pupils.

As for the feedback from the Yin spirit's power, that's only part of it.

The further Shi Yi went on the path of cultivation, the clearer things became for him.

Besides absolute strength, trump cards are also extremely important, so it is also important to have a clear understanding of the combat power of trump cards.

Shi Yi moved slightly and quickly appeared in front of the corpse of the Saintess of No Life.

With a slight thought, several items flew out from the corpse of the Unborn Saintess, among them was a gold leaf containing the "Sutra of the Future of All Beings".

After Shi Yi glanced at them, he put them all into his Bodhi Seed Space.

Shi Yi glanced at the corpse of the Saintess of No Life, and then the Golden Crow Divine Fire surged from his hand.

“Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.”

"Since you are dead, let your ashes rest in peace!"

Shi Yi looked at the corpse, and with a slight thought, the Golden Crow Divine Fire covered the corpse of the Saintess of No Life.

There was no blood or vital energy left on the body of the Unborn Saintess, confirming that her physical body was also completely dead. However, he still intended to destroy the body and erase the traces he had left behind, as well as the evidence of the Unborn Saintess's death.

Previously, he needed to bury it under a tree, but now with the Golden Crow Divine Fire, which can transform the ethereal into the real and burn physical objects, it is naturally more convenient to use the Golden Crow Divine Fire.

Not long after, the body of the Unborn Saintess was burned to ashes by the Golden Crow Divine Fire, and then buried in the ground by Shi Yi, completely erasing any trace of the Unborn Saintess.

The reason for this is that they were able to come, and there may be others coming later.

Thus, the feud between the two was resolved. "Since we have gained these things, let's first digest them and transform them into strength."

"We can use the sword intent on the sword monument to accelerate this process."

Shi Yi felt the increased pure Yin spirit power within his body, and a thought stirred within him.

To be honest, if he hadn't happened to meet the Saintess Wusheng, he would still be cultivating at the Sword Stele.

The tempering effect of the sword intent within the sword monument is far superior to that of many elixirs, and its effects are extraordinary.

"It's a pity I can't take this sword monument with me."

"There are too many formations on it; with my strength, I simply cannot pull it out."

Shi Yi came to the sword monument again and exerted force on his hand, but the sword monument on the ground did not move at all.

Even a force exceeding 108,000 jin was completely useless, demonstrating how deeply rooted it was.

Shi Yi could also see that there were many blue lights intertwined on it, all of which were the power of the formation.

However, the Sword Stele contains not only the power of the Sword Mountain, but Shi Yi also senses the world power of the Azure Mist Lesser Thousand World suppressing the Sword Stele.

This was very likely the work of the original controller of the Azure Mist Small Thousand Worlds.

If he hadn't controlled the Bodhi Seed microcosm and used its power, he wouldn't have recognized it.

"Since no one is coming now, I will continue to use the Sword Stele Cultivation Association."

"As for the depths of Sword Mountain, there's no need to rush there."

Shi Yi glanced at the depths of Sword Mountain, showing no hurry.

He hasn't yet obtained all the opportunities on the sword monument. If he continues onward, he might miss out on other opportunities on the sword monument.

After all, every sword mark on the sword monument represents a lineage of swordsmanship.

While the Azure Mist Sword Technique is the strongest, the other sword techniques naturally have their own unique features, otherwise they wouldn't have been recorded on the sword monument.

"I remember the sword intent of that sword mark just now, it didn't seem weak either."

"Let's test the sword intent on this sword mark first!"

Shi Yi's gaze swept over the dense sword marks on the sword monument.

Previously, when he was searching for the sword intent of the "Azure Mist Sword Manual", he had sensed other powerful sword intents.

Because the powerful sword intent was still very conspicuous among the many sword marks.

This was also the basis for Shi Yi's previous search for the "Azure Mist Sword Manual".

"The Sky-Piercing Sword Technique and the Sky-Piercing Sword Intent are indeed formidable."

"It's even more formidable than before."

Shi Yi touched the sword mark with his hand, and then a sharp sword intent slashed into his sea of ​​consciousness, aiming directly at the Buddha's image in his sea of ​​consciousness.

This sword intent was far stronger than when Shi Yi had comprehended it before, but it landed on the Tathagata's Dharma Image and did not harm it in the slightest.

The power contained within was used to temper the Dharma body and accelerate its absorption of the Yin Spirit power of the Unborn Saintess.

At the same time, the information of the Lingtian Sword Technique contained within was absorbed by Shi Yi.

"As expected, I can continue to absorb the information contained within these sword intents."

"Back then, disciples of the Menglan Sword Sect could obtain more cultivation techniques as long as they were strong enough."

"However, there's no need for so many cultivation techniques; we can simply learn from the existing ones."

“Once you reach a certain level in these cultivation methods, you should go your own way.”

"The path of creating laws is the path that the strong must take."

"However, in addition to having strong enough cultivation, one also needs to be well-read in books to create a new method."

"The contents of this sword tablet can help me complete my accumulation."

Shi Yi stared intently at the sword monument.

In the outside world, obtaining superior cultivation methods is quite difficult. Even within the Taiyi Sect, acquiring those techniques requires consuming a certain amount of sect contribution points.

Furthermore, even within the Taiyi Sect, there aren't that many superior cultivation techniques.

The Menglan Sword Sect was extremely powerful in the medieval era, far surpassing the current Taiyi Sect. Its heritage and foundation were naturally on a completely different level.

The existence of the sword monument is itself a filter.

If one's martial arts skills are not strong enough and one's sword intent is insufficient, it is impossible to leave a sword mark on the sword monument.

This was just right for Shi Yi.

This is also why he didn't continue the trial; the opportunity here was more important to him.

Having cultivated Taoist arts to his level, it's natural that he should make some preparations!

"My cultivation of Daoist arts is improving very quickly, but this speed is mostly due to the Yin Spirit power of the Saintess of No Life."

"The power of the sword intent has increased considerably, but the overall tempering effect is not as good as when my Dao cultivation was still at the Yuan Dan level."

"This sword monument also has an upper limit."

"If a Daoist practitioner at the Silent Meditation level comes, the intensity of the sword intent should increase, and the effect of assisting cultivation will be very weak."

"The sword intent on this sword monument is determined by the cultivator's level of cultivation."

Shi Yi could clearly sense the change in sword intent, but it didn't have much of an impact on him.

As long as the sword intent above cannot shatter his Tathagata Dharma Form in one strike, his Tathagata Dharma Form can be restored to its original state within the sea of ​​consciousness.

The Yin spirit's characteristic of "all Buddhas come, but the Tathagata remains unchanged" is still very strong.

This is especially true at times like these.

The reason why Shi Yi dared to make a move in front of a master like the Unborn Saintess, who was at the stage of forgetting the world, was partly because of the Yin spirit characteristic of "all Buddhas come, but the Tathagata remains unchanged".

Even if he used his trump cards at that time, he would not be a match for the Unborn Saintess, and his Yin spirit would not be destroyed by her.

When he was no longer an opponent, he naturally slipped away.

Although it wasn't perfect, he was able to leave safely.

It's worth the risk to settle the score with the Holy Maiden of No Life and try to obtain her faith.

The final result was as he had expected.

Within Shi Yi's sea of ​​consciousness, the sword intent of the Lingtian Sword Technique was even more ferocious, but Shi Yi's Tathagata Dharma Image remained unaffected.

On the contrary, Shi Yi gradually collected all the techniques of the Lingtian Sword Art. (End of this chapter)
