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

He was also a little puzzled, because Shi Yi wasn't the kind of person who would pass up an opportunity and willingly give it to someone else.

There is definitely something else going on behind this.

Shi Hao didn't have time to investigate these things; he turned back to focus on the Thunder Spirit team.

Watching Lei Ling, the Primordial Fish Seed, and Shi Hao depart, Shi Yi smiled slightly. Above his head, the Forbidden Sea of ​​Bitterness appeared, and countless holy feathers fell, covering his entire body. Instantly, his aura and everything about him were concealed, making him impossible to detect.

Then, Shi Yi released the Thunder Emperor Armor, which transformed into a beam of light and rushed into the holes on the Thunder Emperor Armor.

"Buzz!"

The Thunder Emperor Armor emitted a dazzling light, and a large amount of law power condensed around the hole, isolating the inside from the outside.

This was to protect Shi Yi from being suppressed and destroyed by the Thunder Emperor's power.

Even though the Thunder Emperor has been dead for an era, his corpse is still terrifying. If Shi Yi were to touch it, he would likely be reduced to ashes.

The Thunder Emperor's personal armor is different; it won't be repelled by the Thunder Emperor's aura.

After making all the preparations, the Thunder Emperor's armor trembled slightly, unleashing a terrifying aura like a vast ocean, especially the holes, which emitted countless rays of light and auspicious colors.

"boom!"

It sensed its master's presence and soared into the sky.

The astonishing fluctuations shocked the group of thunder spirits. Shi Hao and his two companions, as well as the Primordial Fish Seed, were also stunned. They saw a dazzling ball of light rushing from afar, heading straight for the reclining corpse of the Thunder Emperor.

"This is……"

Sanzang and Shenming were greatly surprised, not knowing what the newcomer was. Shi Hao also squinted his eyes, trying to see what was inside, but the immortal light released by the Thunder Emperor Armor was too dazzling, and he couldn't see it at all.

However, for some reason, Shi Hao had a feeling that this thing was related to Shi Yi.

The three looked towards the Thunder Spirit team, wanting to see how these Thunder Spirits would react, since that thing was clearly heading towards the Thunder Emperor.

All the Thunder Spirits let out mournful cries, tears streaming down their faces.

They did not stop them, because they were all too familiar with that armor. It was the Thunder Emperor's personal battle armor. Now that it was charging forward, it must have sensed its master's presence and wanted to return to its master's side.

Under the astonished gazes of Shi Hao, Sanzang, and Shenming, the dazzling ball of light disappeared into the straw mat.

"This……"

The three looked at each other, completely bewildered.

But they were certain that the thing's ability to get close to the Thunder Emperor's remains meant it must be related to the Thunder Emperor.

"Is it related to the Thunder Emperor?"

Shi Hao muttered to himself, and recalling the scene of Shi Yi stopping and leaving the group earlier, he thought of something.

That was something that appeared in the Tianyuan Secret Realm—the Thunder Emperor Armor. At that time, Shi Yi obtained this armor. Although he hasn't seen it much since, it must still be on Shi Yi's person.

If I'm not mistaken, Shi Yi deliberately broke away from the group just now to release the Thunder Emperor Armor.

Shi Hao pondered and gradually came to a bold guess: Shi Yi would not let the opportunity slip by; he would definitely follow, but not with them. Instead, he would follow the Thunder Emperor Armor and rush between the two straw mats.

"This guy is too bold. He dares to get close to the corpse of the Thunder Emperor. Isn't he afraid that the Thunder Spirits will find out and tear him to shreds?" Shi Hao muttered to himself.

While pondering, the Thunder Spirit team arrived at an ancient burial area. They carried straw mats and rushed into an ancient tomb, seemingly searching for something.

When it comes to ancient tombs, Sanzang and Shenming are the most qualified to speak, because they come from the burial world, where large tombs are everywhere.

"What are they looking for? Could it be..." Sanzang and Shenming showed excitement.

After Lei Ling's team left in disappointment, the group quickly rushed into the large tomb that had already been opened.

"There was a great medicine in the grave, but it has already been picked," Sanzang said disappointedly.

"What powerful medicine? I can't sense it." Shi Hao looked puzzled.

"That is a great medicine that is extremely beneficial to us funeral directors. It is extremely rare to find even one in the world, but it is useless to you."

"Remember the Burial King I mentioned earlier who disappeared with the ancestral fish seedling? He likely followed the ancestral fish seedling to this area and eventually discovered the great medicine in this large tomb," Sanzang explained.

"Then what are these Thunder Spirits doing bringing the Thunder Emperor in here? The Thunder Emperor isn't a Burial Warrior."

“Perhaps they just want to find him a place to rest in peace,” Sanzang sighed.

"Not necessarily. The Three-Life Elixir can be used as a catalyst for refining the Resurrection Pill. Could it be that they want to refine this ancient pill to revive the Thunder Emperor?" The god thought of a possibility.

"What is the Three-Life Medicine?" Shi Hao asked curiously, as this was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing.

Two golden-robed funeral attendants spoke up to explain to him.

"The Three Lives Medicine requires a grave to exist continuously for three eras. In each era, it must be irrigated by a rain of blood and stained by the blood of the gods, before accumulating in the grave."

Gradually, these substances and essences will grow into a medicine, known as the "Three Lives Medicine."

"This thing is of great significance to our lineage of Burial Warriors, exceeding the total value of ten immortal herbs. Unfortunately, it is far too rare," Shenming sighed.

"If our lineage of burial priests obtains the Three Lives Elixir, we can use it to open the path to becoming a burial king. If other living beings consume the Three Lives Elixir, they will die instantly."

However, there are methods to use the Three-Life Medicine as a catalyst to refine some impossible elixirs; the Resurrection Pill is one such example.

"I see." Shi Hao nodded, understanding the preciousness of the Three Lives Medicine.

“Keep following them; there might be other opportunities,” Sanzang said.

The three followed closely behind Lei Ling's team, as did the transformed progenitor fish fry.

Soon after, Lei Ling's team stepped onto an ancient teleportation array. The five-pointed star flashed and disappeared, traversing the void. Kun Miao also rushed in.

"Are you still chasing me?"

"of course."

The three of them activated their teleportation arrays and gave chase.

At this moment, inside the holes of the Thunder Emperor's armor, Shi Yi sat cross-legged, quietly waiting for the Thunder Spirit team to enter the Immortal Realm.

He knew that the Thunder Spirit team would take the Thunder Emperor to the land of communication with the heavens, the spirits, and the past and present, but he wasn't sure if they would go there immediately.

After all, the Immortal Realm is vast and rich in resources, with countless opportunities. Perhaps Lei Ling's next stop will be somewhere else.

Shi Yi didn't have time to gamble, and he couldn't communicate with Lei Ling either, as they only recognized Lei Di. The best way was to do as the Reincarnation Disc said.

Chapter 396 Blending in

Shi Hao and his two companions followed Lei Ling across the land, arriving at many ancient and dilapidated worlds, and even saw an ancient divine tree that was evolving into the World Tree.

It failed, and the entire universe withered and died along with it.

After crossing the altar time and time again, they finally reached the end. The Thunder Spirit team stopped; there were no more altars to cross.

"This is where?"

Shi Hao and his two companions surveyed their surroundings.

It was a gray, empty, and desolate place. Nothing was visible, and no living creatures were to be seen. It felt like we had arrived at the end of the world, and everything was so bleak.

"This is too strange. After so many teleportations, who knows where we are?" Sanzang frowned.

The Thunder Spirit team began to move in this area, seemingly searching for something. Suddenly, they showed excitement, broke through the mist, and headed straight in one direction.

"Have you found your destination?" Shenming asked, puzzled.

The three of them had no choice but to follow.

Those altars are all one-way; there is no way to return.

The journey ahead was unusual and strange, as if traversing an ancient battlefield, with various ancient weapons and dilapidated, silent warships scattered along the roadside.

“These things are terrifying. Even though the runes inside have been worn away, their essence can still be seen. They are celestial artifacts,” Sanzang murmured.

Without a doubt, this is an ancient battlefield in which immortal beings participated.

"This is……"

Suddenly, they stopped and saw a pair of enormous stone gates.

The traces of the battlefield cease before the pair of stone gates, as if severed by them.

The three stepped forward and saw many ruins in front of the stone gate. A being with golden blood died at the foot of the stone gate, and he wrote several immortal characters with his golden blood.

"Can not go back."

Tripitaka softly recited the meaning of the Taoist scriptures.

He then concluded that this being from the Guardian lineage was incredibly powerful in life, at the very least a Supreme Being.

"Do you know what's behind this door?" Shi Hao asked. He had a guess, but the two Golden Burial Warriors were knowledgeable and experienced, so they could probably give a more accurate answer.

"If I'm not mistaken, these stone gates are the legendary Immortal Gates, and beyond the Immortal Gates lies the homeland of immortals," Sanzang replied solemnly.

"The Hometown of Immortals!"

Shi Hao muttered to himself, thinking about many things. Dugu Yun had been searching for a way back to his homeland, those forbidden zones of life that stood tall in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and the reinforcements that Jin Taijun had mentioned... everything pointed to the vast immortal realm behind the two huge stone gates in front of them.

“There was a rumor that the homeland of immortals was connected to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths in the previous era, but later, some terrible change occurred, and this connection was broken. Since then, no living being who has left the homeland of immortals has been able to return, just like these living beings who are blocked before us,” Sanzang murmured.

Upon hearing this secret, Shi Hao was surprised, feeling that everything was connected and many things had a clear thread.

Just then, the Thunder Spirits made a move. They lined up together, forming a strange formation, and chanted ancient and mysterious incantations, as if they were summoning something.

However, the stone gates remained cold and motionless, and despite their power, they could not shake the two massive immortal gates.

The next moment, they lifted a corner of the straw mat, bowed to the inside, their faces showing piety, and kept worshipping.

Soon, their actions took effect; a ball of light rose slowly from the blood-stained straw mat, emitting a dazzling glow.

Then, the ball of light flickered and appeared before the stone gate.

This astonishing scene left Shi Hao and his companions utterly shocked. What was that ball of light? Was it the Thunder Emperor's weapon?

Shi Yi, who was sitting cross-legged in the hole of the Thunder Emperor's armor, also sensed this fluctuation. He used the vertical eye between his eyebrows, the Chaos Eye, and finally saw the thing in the ball of light: an ancient and mottled Thunder Pool.

The infamous Thunder Emperor of the Ten Fiends possessed a mottled Thunder Pool as his weapon. Perhaps the Thunder Pool was not something he forged, but rather something that was born with him. Or perhaps the Thunder Emperor himself was a being that emerged from the Thunder Pool.

Shi Yi thought to himself.

"Buzz!"

When the Thunder Pool appeared in front of the stone gate and struck it, the previously cold and unmoving stone gate immediately reacted.

It emitted an eerie light, no longer as ancient and silent as before, but becoming almost transparent.

Immediately afterwards, countless patterns revived and spread on the stone gate, as if flowing there with molten iron.

Two enormous ancient characters emerge, imbued with the aura of the Great Dao, majestic and awe-inspiring throughout history.

"Fairy Realm!"

Sanzang and Shenming were surprised and read out the meaning of those two words.

All three trembled. Just those two ancient characters gave off an unparalleled sense of oppression, making their souls tremble like candle flames flickering in the wind.

The next moment, a melodious Daoist voice, carried from the distant past, reached the present world, cleansing people's souls. Many wondrous phenomena manifested on the stone gate: the ancient ancestors, the secrets of chaos, the end of the Great Dao...

The three of them couldn't help but want to comprehend the Dao and understand the things on the stone gate.

It wasn't until the Thunder Pool struck the stone gate again that they came to their senses. The three of them felt a wave of fear; they had been as if possessed, and their minds had almost been swallowed up by the stone gate.

"What a terrifying door!"

Even the thunder spirits were furious. If it weren't for the power of the Thunder Pool, they would have perished here, their primordial spirits sinking into the stone gate.

At this moment, the Thunder Pool exerted its power once more, and a beam of light shot out from within, containing the secrets of the heavens, and landed on the stone gate.

"Boom!"

The heavens and earth trembled, the sun and moon lost their light, and the two unshakeable immortal gates trembled as if they were about to collapse because of a beam of light in the Thunder Pool.

"How is this possible? Wasn't it said that once the Immortal Gate was closed, no one could open it, no matter who came? Now there are signs that it is about to open." Sanzang was greatly surprised.

Then, something amazing happened: crystalline lines burst forth from the two immortal gates, extending to the sides and upwards.

It's as if a living being is painting, sketching out a blurry scene.

"This is... a Celestial Realm fortress?"

The group was excited. If they could break through the fortress, it would mean they had entered a magnificent and vast immortal realm, where endless opportunities awaited their exploration.

“According to the records in the Bronze Book, this fortress may have loopholes, and perhaps we can sneak in.” The two Golden Burial Warriors immediately rushed over and began searching.

The transformed Kun seedlings are also doing the same thing.
