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

Since he was already there, he might as well make the best of it. Even if the beings in the "River of Time" were of a higher realm than him, Shi Yi was not afraid. He had absolute confidence in the Ascension System.

When the balance within the human body is not disrupted, the most perfect evolution can be achieved, exhibiting invincible combat power beyond reason, and even the opponents at the very top of the pyramid can be defeated.

Before he could make a move, several beings at the very top of the group of prodigies turned around one after another. Each of them was incredibly powerful, their bodies shrouded in chaotic mist, their eyes deep, and their every move exuding immense majesty.

"Since when can people who haven't reached the pinnacle of the Dao come here?"

A majestic being spoke coldly. He wore a golden crown and a robe of golden crow feathers. His eyes were blazing. With each opening and closing of his eyes, the heavens and earth collapsed and the sun and moon withered.

Golden Crow!

Shi Yi's eyes gleamed as he met the gaze of this being, and a storm was instantly stirred up on the "river of time" between them.

In this world, there are five Heavenly Emperors, one of whom is the ancestor of the Golden Crow clan, known as the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor. He is extremely ancient and almost broke through to the King Realm.

This arrogant creature comes from the Golden Crow clan, a descendant of the Heavenly Emperor, just like Lin Ni.

“A truly powerful person can disregard the difference in cultivation level and sweep aside their contemporaries.” Shi Yi did not show weakness and confronted him head-on.

He knew that in this world of gods and demons, power was everything, might made right, and everything else was just empty talk.

The purpose of this trip is to demonstrate my strength and try to get on board. There's no need to be subservient. Whether he's the son of a giant, a disciple of a celestial king, or a descendant of the Heavenly Emperor, it doesn't matter. If anyone is dissatisfied, I'll just beat them into submission.

Upon hearing this, the descendant of the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor laughed, but it was a cold laugh.

His name is Jin Hao. Among the descendants of the Golden Crow, he is the most amazing existence in the human realm. From the beginning of his cultivation to the present, he has always been ranked in the top ten of the Heavenly Ranking. It can be said that he has been invincible since childhood and is highly regarded by the Golden Crow clan. Because of this, Jin Hao has developed an extremely domineering personality.

Upon hearing Shi Yi's sharp retort, Jin Hao naturally couldn't simply laugh it off; he saw it as a provocation.

At this moment, he stood at the pinnacle of the Dao, only one step away from becoming a true immortal, and ranked seventh on the Supreme Heavenly Ranking.

If he wished, he could instantly become an immortal and enter a completely new realm. However, his ancestor, the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor, once said that if he wanted to break through the King Realm, he might have to become an immortal in the mortal world, stand shoulder to shoulder with the immortal realm in the human realm, and lay a foundation against the heavens. Only in this way could he bear the fruit of the Emperor's Dao.

Jin Hao is determined to surpass his ancestors, break the king's throne and become an emperor. Therefore, he stops at the pinnacle of humanity and explores the path ahead with great difficulty.

At this moment, being provoked like this by a being who is not even at the peak of the ultimate path, Jin Hao naturally could not tolerate it. He turned around, his golden feather robe fluttering, and terrifying flames ignited around him, as if to burn away the ages. A terrifying pressure swept down along the "river of time" and descended on Shi Yi.

Seeing this, everyone else tacitly chose to remain silent and watch. As for the outcome, they were all in complete agreement that Jin Hao would win decisively and crush the arrogant and ignorant young man below.

At their level, even the slightest difference in realm becomes infinitely magnified. They can easily suppress someone like Shi Yi, a supreme being of the ultimate realm.

Lin Ni sighed softly, having already anticipated this situation. Jin Hao and the others were incredibly powerful and would not allow a nobody like the Supreme Being to infiltrate. Even if a Celestial King might be pushing things along, they didn't care.

"Leave as soon as possible. This is not a place for you. He is ranked seventh on the Heavenly Ranking, and his cultivation level is higher than yours. You can't possibly be his match," Lin Ni whispered, advising Shi Yi not to be reckless.

Jin Hao will not show any mercy when he makes a move.

"Thank you for the reminder, fellow Daoist. However, this little bird is too arrogant. I must teach it a lesson." Shi Yi nodded and said.

Lin Ni was slightly taken aback, feeling that Shi Yi was too arrogant. He was just an Extreme Dao Supreme, what did he have to do to challenge the pinnacle of the Extreme Dao? Did he think Jin Hao was an ordinary pinnacle of the Extreme Dao?

"Heh, so he's just a greenhorn. I wonder which Celestial King sent him in. If he gets beaten half to death and thrown out, it'll be very embarrassing," someone sneered.

"You will pay a heavy price for your disrespectful remarks," Jin Hao said coldly, his killing intent surging, and his golden feathers ignited.

He was very domineering. He simply stretched out a finger and pointed it at Shi Yi downstream. Instantly, the wind and clouds changed color. The finger grew larger and larger, freezing time and space.

Some people shook their heads and laughed, as if they had already foreseen the scene of Shi Yi being crippled by a single finger and directly blasted down from the thirty-third heaven.

Lin Ni also sighed softly. She had already tried to persuade the other party, but it was no use. The other party insisted on fighting Jin Hao.

She guessed that this newcomer was probably used to being invincible in the outside world and was overconfident, thinking that he could really be invincible, which is why he said those things that defied common sense.

Unexpectedly, before the giant golden finger could even get close, it was struck by a terrifying force and stopped on the spot. A clearly visible crack appeared at the fingertip, and a drop of blazing golden blood dripped down, as dazzling as a burning sun.

Chapter 400 Rebellion Against the Emperor

Upstream of the "river of time," all of the dozen or so creatures showed expressions of shock.

What did they see?

Jin Hao, the seventh-ranked figure on the Supreme Heavenly Ranking, at the pinnacle of the Extreme Dao, and the most dazzling genius in the human realm of the Golden Crow clan, was actually injured by an unknown figure at the Supreme Dao realm, causing him to shed Golden Crow blood.

This is incredible.

Lin Ni's mouth was slightly open, her eyes fixed on Shi Yi, her mind replaying the nonsensical things he had just said.

At the time, she thought the creature was too arrogant, but now it seems she was too arbitrary.

However, the difference between the Supreme Being and the Pinnacle of the Ultimate Path is not even a fraction, and they are not comparable at all. No one would think that Shi Yi is Jin Hao's opponent.

As the people at the very top of the pyramid of the supreme realm, the beings at the upper reaches of the "River of Time" are extremely shrewd. After a brief moment of shock, they quickly regained their composure, but their hearts were still churning with turmoil.

They knew Jin Hao's strength. Although he was ranked seventh, the top ten beings were all about the same, so it was hard to say who was stronger or weaker. They had never really fought to the death against each other.

They don't really care about the rankings; as long as they're in the top ten, it doesn't matter who's number one.

It's unimaginable that someone as powerful as Jin Hao could suffer a loss at the hands of an Extreme Dao Supreme. They simply couldn't have done it.

This can only mean one thing: the newcomer downstream is incredibly powerful and has astonishing potential.

When he reaches the Supreme Realm, he can already contend with the most outstanding individuals at the pinnacle of the Extreme Realm. Once he reaches the pinnacle of the Extreme Realm, what will become of him? He will surely sweep them all away.

Thinking of this, everyone's gaze became more solemn than ever before, and all their previous contempt vanished completely.

Jin Hao stared at his injured finger, where there was a clearly visible crack, blazing with golden light and tinged with blood.

"Buzz!"

The fire of the golden crow burned, erasing the wound.

His gaze was cold and imposing as he looked down at Shi Yi downstream.

"No one has hurt me for many years. You are the first." Jin Hao said indifferently, his feathers flaming with terrifying flames, his killing intent overflowing, causing everything in the void to freeze.

Downstream, Shi Yi sneered, his double pupils gleaming, within which endless feathers danced; upon closer inspection, one would discover that they were symbols.

"Today we will not only hurt you, but also suppress you and drag you down from your pedestal."

"You've been in the top ten of the so-called Heavenly Ranking for too long, too comfortably. It's time to go down there and reflect on your actions," Shi Yi replied coldly.

"Interesting. Let me see if your words are tougher or your abilities are tougher," Jin Hao said softly, maintaining his superior attitude.

Despite the setback Shi Yi had just dealt him, he remained confident in his invincibility, because he hadn't used his full strength at all.

As a descendant of the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor, he represents the pride of the Golden Crow clan and cannot afford to lose under any circumstances.

"boom!"

Golden crow feathers fell from Jin Hao's body, each one terrifyingly powerful, enveloped in the raging flames of the golden crow, some even stained with blood.

Without a doubt, this was a forbidden strike. Having been injured by Shi Yi and lost face, he no longer intended to hold back and test the waters. He wanted to end the battle quickly and crush his opponent in the most dominant way.

"Ten Thousand Golden Crow Swords".

Jin Hao let out a low shout, his magical power surging within him. He held nothing back, determined to achieve victory in one strike.

Countless golden crow feathers stood taut, flames billowed, and the sound of swords rang out. This was a terrifying sword technique, and the overflowing killing intent shocked heaven and earth and made ghosts and gods weep. Even Shi Yi, who was far downstream, felt a chill run down his spine.

His gaze was solemn. After all, there was a difference in their cultivation levels. His opponent was no ordinary peak cultivator, so he was not so easy to suppress.

"Crack!"

A loud whooshing sound filled the air as countless golden feather swords converged into a torrent, surging downwards from the upper reaches of the "River of Time." Had this place not been extraordinary, solid, and indestructible, it would likely have already caused a cataclysmic upheaval.

This strike was enough to shatter a vast universe and annihilate galaxies.

There was no other color in Shi Yi's eyes, only a blazing gold that filled every inch of his vision.

His face was expressionless, but his eyes were swirling. He opened his palm, where chaotic energy permeated the air, and a nine-leaf sword grass with green leaves took root.

The next moment, the power of ascension overflowed from between Shi Yi's five fingers, and various forces such as time, space, fate, and cause and effect emerged, enveloping the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass.

"laugh!"

The Nine-Leaf Sword Grass stirred, surging upwards at a visible speed, growing vigorously and constantly transforming, accompanied by sacred feathers, as if it were ascending to immortality.

Nine sword-shaped leaves swayed, unleashing endless sword energy that could easily slice through the universe, terrifying to the extreme.

The boundless sword energy collided head-on with the 100,000 Golden Crow Swords. Instantly, golden light shone brightly, and countless explosions and deafening roars resounded.

In the end, the 100,000 Golden Crow Swords subsided, and the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was reduced to only roots and stems, completely exhausted.

What? A draw?

The dozen or so creatures upstream were secretly surprised. If Jin Hao had been careless and accidentally let the other party gain an advantage with that last finger strike, then there was no excuse for this.

Their levels were not much different, so it was obvious that Jin Hao was using all his strength. Although it wasn't to the point of fighting desperately, Shi Yi, who was downstream, was quite composed.

Everyone was astonished. Where did this monster come from?

It's not surprising that they are capable of defying the odds; they are the representatives of this kind of practice. They can far surpass their peers in every realm, and even those with higher cultivation levels are not necessarily their match.

However, no one has ever dared to challenge them, because they represent the "ultimate" and the "top". Now, a young man has emerged out of nowhere and even defeated the descendants of the Golden Crow Emperor. This is simply astonishing.

"Humph!"

Although Jin Hao was surprised, he still snorted coldly and planned to use the real forbidden method.

He exuded the power of time, as if he were taking people back to an ancient era. Behind him, an ancient sun tree rose from the ground, radiating golden light, and on the sun tree stood a golden crow.

Various bizarre scenes appeared around the ancient tree of the sun: there was the image of a Celestial King dying tragically with his head cut off, there was the terrifying scene of gods and demons falling from the heavens and Celestial Kings falling from the sky, and the most terrifying was a beam of light that represented the fall of a Quasi-Celestial Emperor.

"When the golden crow cries, the emperor's reign ends!"

Jin Hao spoke heavily, his voice carrying a demonic quality, as if he were trying to drag Shi Yi into that terrifying era filled with bloodshed and the bizarre.

Shi Yi, who was downstream, swayed as he sensed a strange power descending upon him.

He himself possessed this secret technique and naturally knew its characteristics; once unleashed, it could descend from afar.

This was a terrifying blow from a descendant of the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor. If it were an ordinary Supreme Being, they would probably be dead by now.

However, Shi Yi managed to withstand it. Although his body swayed and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, he was not seriously injured.

A light of ascension erupted from his body, expelling that secret power from his body. Then, his eyes shone brightly, covered with symbols, transforming into two dazzling suns.

There was a "clang" sound.

Two immortal swords fell, crashing into the void. One was Taiyin, and the other was Taiyang, which crossed into a cross and slashed upwards in reverse.

The Taiyin and Taiyang swords were with Shi Yi one moment and then suddenly appeared in front of Jin Hao the next.

"The Way of Space?"

Jin Hao was taken aback. He tried to react, but it was too late.

At this moment, space and time froze, heaven and earth stood still, and only the two immortal swords, Taiyin and Taiyang, moved, crossing and slashing towards Jin Hao.

"laugh!"

A crisp shattering sound rang out as Jin Hao was struck by the attack, nearly causing the immortal sword to pierce through his body. Golden crow blood spurted from the horrifying wound, a truly tragic sight.

If his Golden Crow Bones had not undergone unimaginable tempering, they would have been cut into four pieces by Shi Yi by now.

"you……"

Jin Hao coughed up blood incessantly, his face filled with shock and anger. As a descendant of the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor, he had been attacked from below and severely injured. If this were to get out, it would be unimaginable.

"Seventh on the Heavenly Ranking is nothing special," Shi Yi shook his head.

He no longer lingered downstream, but took small steps into the realm of "the long river of time".

This "river of time" is of unknown origin, almost indistinguishable from the real thing. If Shi Yi hadn't been so knowledgeable about the ways of time, he might not have been able to tell the difference.

The most elite beings in the Supreme Realm have gathered here to compete on the "River of Time." Is it a race, or is there something at the source of the "River of Time" that they are vying for?

Shi Yi didn't know, but it didn't matter. He had stepped into this long river, which meant he had also joined the ranks of those fighting to cross it, and he would go and see for himself.

However, before that, he had to suppress the Golden Crow to establish his authority. Without proving his strength, how could someone with the cultivation of an Extreme Dao Supreme be qualified to stand here?

"boom!"

Jin Hao went berserk, using the Heavenly Emperor's secret technique to heal his own injuries while launching an overwhelming attack on Shi Yi, who was moving upwards against the current.

Shi Yi remained silent, his body radiating boundless immortal light. With each step he took, a layer of feathers would fall from his body, and his aura would grow even stronger. Facing Jin Hao's attacks, he swung his fists, using the Feather Transformation Technique to sweep across the myriad realms.

The spectators were all shocked. This creature was too powerful. Even with its cultivation level at a great disadvantage, it could still display such an invincible posture and even showed the potential to overthrow Jin Hao.

"Roar!"

Jin Hao roared to the sky. He realized that his attacks could not stop Shi Yi's advance. If he waited for the opponent to accumulate momentum and kill his way to the top, it would be very disadvantageous for him. It would be better to take the initiative and charge forward from a high position.

"kill!"

Jin Hao roared, and the blood of the Golden Crow burned fiercely. A pair of Golden Crow wings emitted chaotic light, aiming to destroy everything in its way.
