Perfect World: Double Pupils Open the Heavens, Ascend to Immortality

"That scripture is ridiculously powerful. The projection of the Primordial Mother Cauldron that you and that guy lifted... even my father could only lift that weight when he was young. However, since he obtained a part of the Undying Scripture and tempered his body, he can now swing that weight like a match. Just thinking about it is exciting!" Little Heavenly Horned Ant said excitedly.

Inside the Heavenly Horned Ant's cave, the lingering remnants of the Ten Fierce Heavenly Horned Ants pointed Shi Hao in the right direction, telling him where to find a more complete version of the Undying Scripture. The one the Ten Fierce Heavenly Horned Ants obtained back then was incomplete, which had always been a regret in his heart.

“Okay, let’s get going right away.” Shi Hao nodded.

As they descended the stone mountain, a large group of prodigies had been waiting for them for a long time. All the young supreme beings were there, their eyes shining as they gazed at Shi Hao and the little ant on his shoulder.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, have you obtained the legendary Scripture of Immortality?" Da Su Tuo asked directly.

The other young supreme beings had gleaming eyes that were dazzling and intimidating.

Their fear of Shi Yi and the power of the double-pupiled one does not mean they fear Shi Hao.

Although he was also impressive, raising the projection of the Primordial Mother Cauldron, the young supreme beings formed alliances and believed that they could use a siege to force Huang to submit, thereby obtaining the legendary immortal scripture.

Shi Hao's expression was somewhat cold, but he still answered the question.

"There's nothing to hide, I didn't get it."

Do you think we believe that?

A young supreme being shouted.

On Shi Hao's shoulder, the little ant whispered something in his ear, in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Whether you actually got it or not, they will take it by force."

Shi Hao's expression remained unchanged, his eyes flashing like lightning as he scanned all directions. The young supreme beings had already taken their positions, blocking all his escape routes.

"So what if you get it? I'm standing right here. Do you dare to take it?" Shi Hao said lightly.

"Huang, you overestimate yourself," a young supreme being whispered, his tone not one of respect.

"Fine, then let me see what you're made of." Shi Hao laughed in fury, abandoning all pretense of politeness and choosing to strike with lightning speed.

Soon, the place fell silent, filled with gasps of cold air. The arrogant young supreme beings, who had been so cocky just moments before, were now completely unable to laugh. They had been brutally beaten by Shi Hao even when they joined forces, and if they hadn't begged for mercy at the crucial moment, they would probably be dead by now.

"Huang, you've misunderstood. We're not enemies, there's no need for us to fight to the death. The real enemy is the alien realm."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao couldn't help but sneer. He still remembered how aggressive these people had been just now, as if they wanted to skin him alive.

He didn't linger in the fight, nor did he kill anyone. The emergence of the Immortal King's Mansion had attracted all the major powers, and it would be very troublesome to draw blood and cause deaths at this time.

The Grand Elder had shown him unparalleled kindness, and he shouldn't cause the Grand Elder any more trouble. Of course, if the other party went too far, Shi Hao didn't need to tolerate it.

Without saying a word, he left the place and, under the leadership of the traitor Little Horned Ant, swept through the Immortal City, gaining quite a few benefits, which made up for his almost fruitless experience in the Horned Ant's cave.

Afterwards, Shi Hao and the Little Heavenly Horned Ant left, bursting out of the muddy pond. Outside, many powerful figures were hidden in the void, waiting quietly.

Upon seeing Shi Hao and the Little Heavenly Horned Ant, they immediately appeared and surrounded him. Their eyes lit up as they vied for ownership of the Little Heavenly Horned Ant. Shi Hao refused everyone and insisted on staying at the Heavenly God Academy. Seeing that soft tactics were ineffective, the longevity families decided to take a hard line and pressed forward, demanding that Shi Hao hand over the Little Heavenly Horned Ant.

At the critical moment, the Grand Elder returned, intimidating all those with ill intentions present. The scene instantly quieted down, and no one dared to disrespect Shi Hao anymore.

After that, the Grand Elder gave Shi Hao a ring containing an ancient and incomparably alive being, but about to die. According to Meng Tianzheng, it might play a crucial role at a critical moment.

With this matter settled, Shi Hao set off with the Little Heavenly Horned Ant towards the North Sea Stone Forest, a legendary place filled with various tales.

"Traversing all the peaks of the highest realm in a single day? Hmph, judging from this, those peaks of the highest realm are nothing special. If I went, I could also shock the world and leave those old guys speechless with amazement." The little horned ant sneered, listening to Shi Yi's legendary deeds with great dissatisfaction.

Shi Hao smiled and shook his head, offering no response.

A man and an ant sailed alone in a small boat toward the vast North Sea.

……

As time passed, in the Qilin Immortal Palace, Taiyin Shiyi made crucial progress in reshaping the cave heaven. The ten ruins of the cave heaven began to revive, with various Great Dao rules flying around and forming Dao cocoons. Moreover, they made heart-beat-like movements, like ten immortal embryos, gestating something extraordinary.

Outside, in a certain realm, Sun Stone Yi also made astonishing progress. The immortal embryo he formed was in stark contrast to that formed by Moon Stone Yi, appearing dark and resembling a demonic embryo. This startled the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy, who thought his disciple was about to fall into demonic possession. However, a quick scan with his divine sense revealed that it was merely a creepy appearance; in reality, it was pure Dao.

"Is it almost successful? The effects of the True Dragon Bone Marrow are indeed remarkable, and the great herbs in the Immortal Medicine Garden left behind by the Emperor of Time have also played a significant role." The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy murmured to himself.

On Taiyin Shiyi's side, the remnant spirit of the Qilin, in order to lend Shiyi a helping hand, decided to administer a powerful remedy. Three drops of blazing Qilin essence blood appeared in the world, as brilliant as the sun, blood-red as diamonds, and brimming with boundless energy.

This is one of the foundations of the Qilin Immortal Palace. It was originally reserved for the White Qilin, but now, the Qilin's remnant will has been used on Taiyin Shiyi, and the killing intent and harmful substances inside have long been removed.

When the three drops of brilliant essence blood dripped onto the ten immortal embryos, radiance burst forth. The ten immortal embryos seemed to have taken a powerful tonic, their life force becoming significantly stronger, and the things within them seemed ready to emerge, as if they were about to be born in the next second.

"Boom!"

Heaven and earth trembled, and in the void, two illusory rivers intertwined and flowed over, swirling around the ten immortal embryos.

Inside, life force surges like the tides, constantly impacting the outer shell.

After an unknown amount of time, the life force within the celestial embryo reached its peak. Even the indestructible embryo could not withstand it and began to crack with a "crack" sound. Cracks appeared one after another, spreading in all directions, densely packed, like ten porcelain pieces about to shatter.

Seeing this, the Qilin's remnant spirit breathed a sigh of relief. Before dripping the Qilin's essence blood, it could clearly see that Taiyin Shiyi was running out of energy. If there was no follow-up, it might end in failure. Fortunately, it administered a strong dose, breaking the suspense and pushing Taiyin Shiyi to the brink of success.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, a crisp cracking sound rang out, and the ten celestial embryo shells above Taiyin Shiyi's head shattered simultaneously, shooting out brilliant celestial light, one after another, filling the entire sky.

Under the astonished gaze of the Qilin's lingering spirit, one immortal feather after another flew out from the cracks on the ten immortal embryos. The shattered embryos also continuously transformed and fell off as feathers, while the things inside the immortal embryos were constantly transforming and sublimating, like ascending to immortality, gradually reaching an unattainable realm.

"Ascension to immortality... This kind of Daoist charm is so vast that it has only been seen in true immortals. He is just a being in the Realm of Severing Self, yet he can achieve this level." The remnant Qilin was astonished, his eyes burning with fervor, his attention to Taiyin Shiyi even surpassing that of his own son, Bai Qilin.

As the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens were destroyed and rebuilt, Shi Yi himself was also undergoing a transformation. His old skin peeled off, and fragments of bone and impurities were expelled, turning into dark feathers of light that fell and fluttered down.

Ultimately, Taiyin Shiyi completed an evolution. Although it cannot be called a qualitative transformation, he became stronger on the original basis and broke through the limit.

Above his head, ten grotto-heavens lay horizontally, their appearance unchanged, yet fundamentally different from the previous grotto-heavens, possessing an indescribable charm that almost merged with the great Dao of time and space.

"The principles involved in your cave are too astonishing. What are you trying to do? Do you intend to travel through time and fall into the river of time?" The Qilin asked, puzzled.

It wasn't until Taiyin Shiyi finished describing his idea that it suddenly understood.

"I see. It seems I underestimated you. You are even more talented than I imagined." The Qilin's lingering spirit said with a smile. It instantly felt that the future of this realm was no longer so bleak. Perhaps the chance to turn things around had fallen on Shi Yi.

"Thank you for the opportunity, senior. I must leave now." Taiyin Shiyi cupped his hands in farewell. He had spent a considerable amount of time in seclusion to break through his cultivation barrier, and he was completely unaware of what had happened in the outside world during that time.

"Go, and I hope you can hold on until the day you achieve your ultimate goal. That way, I will have no regrets." The lingering spirit of the Qilin nodded slightly.

Taiyin Shiyi then took his leave. As for Bai Qilin, he would remain in the Qilin Immortal Palace to receive instruction from the Qilin's lingering will.

At the same moment, outside, in a certain natural field, Sun Stone Yi arrived at the most critical moment. He encountered the same problem as Moon Stone Yi: he was running out of steam. If it weren't for the three drops of Qilin essence blood, a kind of miraculous medicine, giving him a push, he might very well fail.

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy saw all this and was anxious. He wanted to give Sun Stone a push, but he had no way to do so. He was short of resources and couldn't find anything comparable to the True Dragon Bone Marrow.

Seeing that Sun Stone was about to decline, the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy turned cold, his body rapidly rising to overlook the area.

Now that things have come to this, there is no other way but to sacrifice this naturally formed field. For such an amazing field to be formed, there must be something extraordinary supporting it.

Without hesitation, he took action. The power of the Supreme Being was so great that it could split the heavens and the earth. A large hand descended, its five fingers closing together, encompassing the entire natural field and throwing it into a furnace for refining. The Sun Stone was within the field, equivalent to a golden core, undergoing tempering.

At the same time, the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy clenched his fist and pounded his heart. His body shuddered, and he coughed up a large mouthful of blood, which dripped into the furnace.

Then, he opened his mouth and spat out blazing extreme fire, scorching the furnace and causing a surge of vital energy to converge towards the location of Sun Stone.

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy was pale-faced and sighed inwardly. He knew that this was all he could do to help. Those drops of blood were all from his heart, which were much more precious than blood essence. They should have some effect, but no matter how much more he added, it wouldn't make a qualitative difference.

As time went by, strange phenomena suddenly appeared around the furnace. Ten demonic embryos rose into the air, and black feathers fell one after another, recreating the magnificent scene of ascension.

Sunstone also gained tremendous benefits, becoming several times stronger than before.

Chapter 364 The war is coming

"Did you make it?"

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy revealed a look of joy. If something were to happen to Sun Stone Yi, he would probably spend the rest of his life in regret.

Since the two bodies are one, if one of them is destroyed by an accident, Shi Yi will find it difficult to reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao. Even if the other body is also amazing, he will ultimately fail to achieve great things and will fall behind as time goes by.

This was the scenario that the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy least wanted to see. Fortunately, in the end, Sun Stone pulled through and successfully rebuilt the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens.

At this time, the Ten Great Grottoes had acquired a somewhat ethereal quality, giving people the feeling that they might be swept away by the river of time at any moment, unlike before when they were solid and truly existed.

To forge it into a beacon leading to the other shore, this is an essential path. Now, Shi Yi has successfully done so with both bodies, which is equivalent to taking a big step forward.

"Thank you, Master." Taiyang Shiyi stepped out of the furnace and bowed to the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy. If the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy hadn't intervened in time and given him a push, he might have stopped here.

"Why are you saying such formal things? How are you feeling right now?"

"Reporting to Master, I feel better than ever before. This reshaping has proven the idea that the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens can be refined into Dao Beacons. They have this potential, and I am on the right path," Taiyang Shiyi replied.

"That's good." The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy was relieved.

At the Heavenly God Academy, beneath the muddy pond, outside the Qilin Immortal Palace, Taiyin Shiyi emerged. Several veterans immediately noticed and came over.

“You seem different now. It looks like you’ve gained something in the Qilin Immortal Palace,” an old soldier said.

"Thanks to Lord Qilin's help." Taiyin Shiyi nodded.

"Are you leaving? The group that came in has all left. Xiao Jin has also gone to the world to gain experience with that young human named Huang. If you encounter Xiao Jin, please take care of him."

Shi Yi agreed. As the offspring of the Ten Fiends, Little Heavenly Horned Ant had great potential. If he was in danger and it was within Shi Yi's capabilities, he would not stand by and watch him die.

Surrounded by several veterans, Taiyin Shiyi left the underground cave and flew out of the muddy swamp. He breathed in the outside air and felt as if he had seen the light of day again.

Before Taiyin Shiyi could make a move, several figures emerged from the void and surrounded him.

"You must be Shi Yi?"

The leader asked a question.

"Has your Wang family forgotten what happened before? How dare you act like this? Have you lost your mind?" Taiyin Shiyi said calmly, his expression unchanged.

"You mean the incident where the three elders broke into my Wang family's immortal palace? Heh, of course we haven't forgotten. So, we won't harm you. As long as you cooperate obediently and tell us everything you saw and obtained in the Immortal King's Palace, we won't make things difficult for you," the Wang family cultivator replied with a cold laugh.

Upon hearing this, Taiyin Shiyi seemed to understand the other party's intention.

"So that's how it is. Your Wang family wanted the Immortal Scripture, but since you couldn't get it from Huang, you've turned your attention to me."

Shi Yi understood. The Undying Scripture was known as the number one body-refining scripture in all the heavens. Once the Wang family obtained it, Wang Changsheng would be invincible. With the Calming Technique for his primordial spirit and the Undying Scripture for his physical body, he would be able to sweep away all enemies of humanity.

This temptation made the Wang family forget the pain they had felt after their past wounds; under normal circumstances, the Wang family would not dare to do such a thing.

However, Wang Changsheng personally deduced and concluded that the Immortal Scripture was about to be born, and the key lay with the two stones. This led the nine dragons of the Wang family to take a risk and issue the order to ambush Shi Yi.

During the time that Taiyin Shiyi was in seclusion, many things happened in the outside world. The alliance of the three academies had taken its most crucial step and was already in full swing. Therefore, there were no longer any elders stationed at the Heavenly God Academy, which gave the Wang family an excellent opportunity.

"Good to know. Now, tell us everything you've gained in the Immortal Abode. If you have the Undying Scripture, it's best to say so directly to avoid any unpleasant incidents," the leader of the Wang family said coldly.

"Don't expect those ancient soldiers down there to help you. From the moment you stepped out of the muddy swamp, we used a magic array to isolate you from the top and bottom. By the time they realized something was wrong, it was too late," another being said.

"So, does that mean I have to listen to you?" Taiyin Shiyi laughed.

"A wise man submits to circumstances. You, a mere cultivator at the Severing Self Realm, are dreaming of fighting against a group of great cultivators at the Escape One Realm. You'd better not invite trouble upon yourself," a great cultivator from the Wang family advised.

“Interesting. Then I’ll lend a hand and test whether the Wang family’s Grand Cultivator is qualified,” Taiyin Shiyi said coldly.

The next moment, several members of the Wang family's Escape One Realm released terrifying auras and surrounded him. They never thought of using words to make Shi Yi submit; that was impossible. In the end, they would have to resort to force to resolve the issue.

At the same moment, Taiyin Shiyi erupted, his physical body bursting forth with dazzling light. Ten divine forms rushed out, their terrifying power distorting the void and shattering eternity.

"boom!"

The heavens and earth trembled, and even the stars beyond the realm shook. This was the first time Taiyin Shiyi had used his full power since his transformation, and his power was simply terrifying, making even cultivators at the Escape One Realm feel inferior.

"puff!"

Several cultivators at the Escape One Realm were forcefully blasted away by the Ten Divine Forms, unable to get close. All of them had bloodstains at the corners of their mouths, having been injured in the previous collision.

Their faces were filled with horror, their eyes wide with disbelief, unable to believe that what they were seeing was real.

Is this really someone who can kill a cultivator of my realm? How can it be so terrifying?

"How is that possible? Are you a monster?"

Taiyin Shiyi revealed a cold smile, his eyes looking down at the several cultivators at the first level of the Escape Realm, and replied, "You can think that way."

The next second, he made his move, so fast that even the cultivator at the Escape Stage felt a chill run down his spine.

"puff!"

One of the Wang family's first-level cultivators was struck in the chest by Taiyin Shiyi's fist. He flew back like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the rocks with a painful howl.

This scene made the others turn pale, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Make a move, suppress him. We have no other choice, there is no way out." The leader shouted in a low voice.

In an instant, several figures rushed forward, intending to use their numerical advantage to suppress Taiyin Shiyi.

A great battle broke out. Relying on the unparalleled control of the field by Taiyin Chongtong, Taiyin Shiyi was able to handle the siege of several Dunyi cultivators with ease. In the end, he defeated them one by one and killed these Wang family Dunyi cultivators on the spot.

Since they dared to ambush him, they should be prepared to be killed.

"You...you monster..." The leader, Dunyi, became the last surviving Wang family cultivator. He was held in Taiyin Shiyi's hand, and a single thought could send him to his death.
