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

Shi Hao's second incarnation was 42,000 years old. He was so old that he had lost all his teeth and was on the verge of death.

At this moment, he sat cross-legged in a place of great potential, about to begin his assault on his third incarnation.

Shi Hao, with his white hair, looked up at the sky with a slight smile on his lips.

"After all that careful planning, let's see how you manage to come here and check in this time."

The next moment, he began a profound transformation. The process of the Footprint Emperor's nine incarnations becoming immortals, which Shi Yi had given him, greatly inspired Shi Hao. Based on his own situation, he formulated a path of transformation. Not to mention the third incarnation, he had already chosen the path to the eighth incarnation.

At this moment, in the universe, Shi Yi stood within the celestial light of ascension, his entire body radiating a sacred glow. His double pupils were extremely deep, displaying a terrifying vision of the destruction of the universe and the birth of all things.

He scanned every corner of the universe, searching for Shi Hao's whereabouts.

"Little brother, you're not transforming as fast as I am. Can you hold out until I find you?" Shi Yi chuckled.

He quickly found his target, but Shi Yi knew that Shi Hao was not among them; he was trying to create a false impression, just like he had.

A path to immortality appeared beneath his feet, stretching all the way into the depths of the universe, leading directly to that mysterious formation.

"boom!"

Shi Yi arrived, exuding an aura that seemed to encompass the ages and reign supreme over the world. Two beams of light shot from his eyes, instantly shattering and disintegrating the illusionary formation.

He then went to the next location, where the magic array would be destroyed by the previous one, and then created by the next, one link after another.

"boom!"

Another illusion has crumbled.

And so, Shi Yi destroyed one great formation after another, finally approaching his destination. His combat power was too great; nothing could stop him.

At this critical moment, Shi Hao also reached the most crucial moment. Yin and Yang converged, and he sought change amidst the extremes, struggling to create a new physique and primordial spirit.

"Buzz!"

Amidst radiant light, Shi Hao succeeded; he lived out his third life through this path.

A vibrant life force surges within my body, and my blood flows through my veins like a ceaseless river. This feeling is truly wonderful, proving that I am still alive.

Shi Hao felt reborn. If no one else were around, he would be in an extremely good mood. However, that was unlikely.

He spotted Shi Yi not far away, who was watching him with great interest.

"So many magic arrays couldn't stop you?" Shi Hao was speechless.

“I told you, your brother will be there for every one of your transformations.” Shi Yi took out a recording stone and waved it at Shi Hao.

The latter was furious, but helpless, and could only place his hopes for countering Shi Yi in the future.

He didn't believe Shi Yi could win every time.

The images on the rough stone wall continue to unfold, two different times and spaces, one place, two different groups of beings expressing the same sentiment.

The Twin Stones are truly extraordinary. They have turned the cruel end times into a battleground. In the vast world, who dares to say they can be like them?

Looking across the ages, it's hard to find many beings who can compare to them. What does it mean to be the protagonist of heaven and earth? This is it.

Compared to these two brothers, even Immortal Kings and Giants are nothing. They were certain that the Twin Stones would definitely attain Immortal King status and were genuine Immortal King seedlings.

Time flies, the Dharma-ending Age continues, and great eras change. Occasionally, beings reach the pinnacle of the Dao, but it is only a moment of glory. At most, they can take the elixir of immortality and live another life. Compared with those two beings who pursued the path to immortality in the mortal world, they are worlds apart.

In this world, their legends will always exist, and every seeker of truth will follow in their footsteps, to challenge them, and to seek their guidance.

The Twin Stones were generous and would teach them the path to immortality, but none of them were able to achieve Nirvana.

Shi Yi guessed that it was because the Great Dao transformed from the fallen Immortal Kings and True Immortals in the world had not dissipated and was too terrifying.

Not every being who reaches the pinnacle of the ultimate path can be compared to the Twin Stones of yesteryear.

"What a cruel era," Shi Yi sighed, shaking his head.

At this time, he had reached the advanced age of 100,000 years, and his second life had lasted for 48,000 years. Amazingly, he was still on the rise and had not yet reached the peak of his life.

Finally, two thousand years later, when Shi Yi was 102,000 years old, his vital energy reached its peak in this life, and after that, it would begin to decline.

This is terrifying; it's only the second life, and it will take 50,000 years to reach the peak.

Shi Hao is in the 30,000th year of the third generation, and is still in the rising phase.

The two stood on the mountaintop, gazing at each other from afar. Their mere confrontation stirred up a terrifying storm.

They both firmly believed that they would live longer than each other in this lifetime, and the two began a competition from afar.

They had a great understanding with each other and did not use any other means, relying solely on their powerful cultivation and terrifying blood energy to fight against the Old Man of Time.

Time passed slowly as they fought each other across the distance—one thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years… ten thousand years… twenty thousand years.

The two fought from the peak of their vitality until they were old and frail. Their long, black hair was gone, leaving only pale white hair. Even as strong as they were, they could not defy time. It was still not enough.

Finally, at the age of 128,000, Shi Hao could no longer endure it. He sighed inwardly and began the transformation to attempt his fourth life. In his third life, he lived for 56,000 years.

On the other side, Shi Yi also couldn't hold on any longer. He had only been forcing himself to keep going, unwilling to start before his younger brother.

Seeing Shi Hao begin to transform, he no longer held on to his fate and used the Yin-Yang Transformation he had been studying for a long time to break through to the third life.

At this moment, Shi Yi had already traversed the second landmark, experiencing all the scenery there and gaining endless insights. His second ascension became even more complete, his cultivation surged dramatically, and he became terrifyingly powerful.

The most familiar Yin-Yang transformation naturally occurred extremely violently, unlike the previous life transformation which was gentle. In just three months, Shi Yi completed it. Chaotic energy permeated his body, and the previously withered parts reappeared with vitality. Then, the astonishing phenomenon of ascension illuminated the dim universe.

He lived a third life. His lifespan in the previous life was 76,000 years. What will the third life be like? It will definitely be even longer.

Shi Yi returned to his peak state, as if he had been reborn. He looked towards the other side of the universe. Shi Hao's transformation journey was not even halfway done. He smiled slightly and took a step towards that side.

Two years later, Shi Hao underwent a complete transformation, shedding his old body and living a second life, entering the ranks of the fourth generation.

"I have lived four lifetimes in this vast imperial realm, 128,000 years. My family and friends, how are you all?" He was filled with emotion, his longing for his relatives and friends overwhelming.

If it weren't for his cousin Shi Yi constantly fighting against him in this life, he would have developed these feelings long ago.

"Yes, it's been 128,000 years." Upon hearing this, Shi Yi also felt a pang of longing for his family.

Since following the Sun God Tree to the Upper Realm, Shi Yi has never returned. It's not that he's heartless, but that he can't stop. On the path of striving for immortality, there's no turning back. Now, he's pursuing the path of immortality in the mortal world and success is in sight. Every realm he'll reach in the future will require endless years of struggle and tempering. It's time to go back and take a look.

As a young man, he left the Martial King's Mansion and fought against heaven and earth, sweeping away all his peers. Even when he fought his way to the Upper Realm and other realms, he was invincible and unparalleled. Now, he has returned to the Lower Realm and is already invincible in the world. I wonder what kind of scene he will be in. His clansmen should be extremely proud of him.

Shi Yi thought to himself.

He thought of his confidante, Bai Zhimiao, who was now just a body; her spirit was imprisoned in a dark cage, and he had no way to rescue her yet. The witch was cultivating in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and Shi Yi had already found her a good successor. At this moment, the golden figure appeared in his mind.

Shi Yi chuckled self-deprecatingly. When a man achieves success, he can never forget the women who helped him along the way, especially since he and Lin Ni had a connection back in Dilu.

"You still came." Shi Hao sighed.

"Yes, I'm here." Shi Yi nodded slightly.

They looked at each other speechlessly.

In the years that followed, the two fought back and forth, neither willing to back down. In the process, their cultivation levels steadily increased, gradually approaching that legendary realm.

Two hundred and thirty-two thousand years later, Shi Yi lived his fifth life. Over the next hundred thousand years, his vital energy continued to grow slowly until he was four hundred and fifty thousand years old. At that moment, he stood at the highest peak of his life. All five Dao markers had been rebuilt and reached their most perfect state.

He was certain that he had reached the point of becoming an immortal in the mortal world, and that time could no longer leave a trace on him. With time no longer affecting him, there was no further progress to be made, and the only option was to attempt to break through to the realm of immortality.

His younger brother, Shi Hao, is still in his seventh life, and is still a little short. He has not taken the elixir of immortality, nor has he fought against the will of heaven to become a battle immortal. His lifespan in each life is at its maximum and keeps increasing.

Suddenly, Shi Yi appeared where Shi Hao was sitting. He was filled with the light of the mortal world and had not yet undergone the final transformation, so he still belonged to the realm of humanity.

"I'm leaving, little brother. I can't accompany you to Nirvana."

Chapter 410 Thousands of Fierce Soldiers

Shi Hao had long anticipated that his cousin, who always liked to come and "check in" when he was weak, was finally leaving.

He underwent six rebirths in a row, and he was present every single one of them, which truly made Shi Hao grit his teeth in hatred.

Logically speaking, now that Shi Yi is gone, he can finally find peace and quiet, and we should be happy.

However, he felt somewhat lost and empty inside.

At their level, it's really hard to find anyone to accompany them other than the Great Dao. Having a nemesis like Shi Yi, with whom they constantly fight, adds countless joys to this tedious and cruel journey of transformation.

Now, his nemesis is about to leave, leaving Shi Hao alone to struggle in this unfamiliar era of imperial decline, with no companions by his side. He feels an indescribable loneliness deep in his heart.

However, Shi Hao could not show such emotions. He and Shi Yi were both extremely competitive people, and they would never back down in their words. He replied with a smile, "So it seems that you have lost. I have only undergone Nirvana six times. You won't be able to wait for the seventh or eighth time."

“Well, I lost. It’s not fun for the older brother to always win. Let the younger brother win once in a while,” Shi Yi nodded and said.

Two pairs of eyes met. This time, there was no shattering of the void or obliteration of the Great Dao. There was admiration for a worthy opponent, reluctance to part with a nemesis, and gratitude.

Shi Hao knew that Shi Yi's journey was to return to the point in time when he and the two Golden Burial Warriors had gone to the Sandy Land and returned to the Primitive Imperial City.

He had already experienced what happened afterward, and he was truly grateful for everything his cousin had done, but Shi Hao said nothing, everything was understood without words.

"Take care. We will meet again, Immortal King. At that time, my brother will no longer be a loser," Shi Hao whispered.

This is the first time I've referred to myself as my younger brother. Actually, I've already let go of the past, but I just can't quite bring myself to say it.

"Alright, farewell, Immortal King." Shi Yi smiled; he was truly looking forward to it.

When one reaches the Immortal King realm, what kind of situation will it be when facing Shi Hao's Great Art of Transformation?

At that time, their battlefield must have been in the Boundary Sea. The myriad realms were too small for them to wreak havoc.

He had already experienced the five great secret realms: the Sea of ​​Wheels, the Dao Palace, the Four Extremes, the Dragon Transformation, and the Immortal Platform. Now, Shi Yi really wanted to try Shi Hao's sixth secret realm: "Gods are watching from above." It must be very powerful and amazing; just thinking about it made him excited.

"Goodbye, Emperor Luo!"

Shi Yi spoke softly, and countless feathers of light surged from his body. At this moment, the forces of time, space, cause and effect, and destiny were flowing.

The sound of the scriptures rang out again, but it was still very faint and indistinct.

He knew that this was probably his own imperial law, but unlike his own Great Law of Transformation, it had not been refined over countless years, so he could not hear it clearly.

An inexplicable aura flowed, distorting the void. Shi Yi saw the stone chamber not far away. On the rough wall, a gaze reflected the past and present, guiding the murals forward.

Shi Yi took one last look at Shi Hao, one last look at the world, and then embarked on his journey home, ready to face a series of fierce battles.

As he approached the stone chamber, it blurred again, like a dream bubble, and not far from the stone chamber, a path appeared, leading to a graveyard.

Shi Yi knew that this path of return would lead to the Burial Zone, which was beyond the borderlands, because the world he and Shi Hao lived in was the predecessor of the Burial Domain.

Along the way, time flowed like water, fragments of time danced in the air, and the radiant glow of the sunset enveloped this region.

Scenes flashed by, and he saw the scene after he and Shi Hao returned. The end of the Dharma was gradually fading away, and the world was regaining its vitality. Everything was getting better, full of life, and all things were thriving.

Just then, a box arrived. It was neither gold, stone, nor wood, but made of a special material that emitted a nine-colored radiance, making all the heavens and myriad worlds pale in comparison.

Shi Yi calmly watched this scene; he knew that this was the birth of the Burial Domain.

After the box arrived, the first being to come into contact with it obtained the most sacred dark matter, thus embarking on the path of cultivation and founding the Burial Clan. This being was the Burial Master.

As Shi Yi stepped out of the passage and descended into the Chaotic Ancient Era, all the scenes vanished, like reflections in a mirror or the moon's reflection in water, as if they had never existed.

The Immortal Realm, a place that connects heaven and earth, spirits and the past and present, the Immortal Reincarnation Wheel stared in astonishment at the last scene on the rough stone wall. Shi Yi entered from this place, but did not return here. Instead, he returned to the Burial Domain and the border.

This left the Wheel of Reincarnation helpless, unable to do anything about it.

It and the triangular Reincarnation Disc, which had been repaired by the Immortal King, were thus trapped in the Immortal Realm, unable to return and participate in the great battle that Shi Yi was about to face.

"Alas, even if we were here, we probably wouldn't be able to help much. He was already at the pinnacle of the Dao, and through countless lifetimes of trials and transformations, no one can say for sure what level his cultivation has reached. Even a true immortal would dare to challenge him."

The so-called "reversing the flow to conquer immortals" is no longer just empty talk; a living being has truly reached that level. The Immortal Reincarnation Disc murmured, revealing a look of satisfaction.

The young cultivator who was just beginning to emerge back then has now grown into a giant of humanity, a celestial being in the mortal world, and his combat power cannot be judged by ordinary standards.

It flew out of the land that connects heaven and earth, past and present, and instantly, the news reached several other corners of the cycle of reincarnation, far beyond countless universes.

"That young man succeeded?" The Immortal King was surprised, never expecting that the legendary place would actually witness a miracle of returning to the fallen emperor.

He began to truly value this young life.

In the ancient city of Immortal King, in a secret cultivation ground, a little girl sits upright, learning cultivation methods under the tutelage of a female cultivator surrounded by immortal energy.

She was the human girl that Shi Yi had saved in the alien realm. At that time, the young people of the alien realm opened their blood-red mouths and showed their cruelty. Shi Yi also swallowed the human girl he had chosen, actually sending her into the chaotic space.

Before heading to the land that connects heaven and earth, past and present, Shi Yi released her and settled her in the Immortal King Ancient City. Given the environment here, her future will not be bad.

At this moment, in the Burial Domain, a region near the border of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Shi Yi appeared. He had returned from the Emperor's Fall, and his entire body was shrouded in sacred immortal light and mortal light, making him seem extraordinary and otherworldly, as if a young immortal king had descended to the mortal world.

The burial priests who were sleeping in this area were awakened by this terrifying aura. Black energy surged out of the large tomb, and then a huge figure sat up from the decaying ancient coffin.

However, the next moment, he lay back down like a frightened bird.

With just a glance from Shi Yi, the powerful burial warrior, comparable to a supreme being, cowered back into his tomb.

At this moment, although he was still a human being, and had not yet washed away his mortal form, his combat power was already enough to defy immortals and fight against them. Naturally, he was not someone that a mere supreme being could easily mess with.
