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

Shi Yi's reputation has spread throughout the forbidden zone. He defeated An Lan and suppressed Wu Shang. Although he borrowed the Dao Fruit, it was still amazing. The main reason was that Wu Shang's name was too big and well-known.

In the subsequent battle of Tianyuan, he personally killed an immortal and a celestial being, and then fought a great battle against six true immortals in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, scattering them and leaving them almost entirely dead or wounded.

The most terrifying thing is that this being is still a human being and has not yet entered the path of immortality.

It's hard to imagine how powerful he would be after becoming a true immortal.

Throughout his long life, the middle-aged True Immortal had never seen such a powerful being. As far as he knew, even in the ancient and vast Immortal Realm, there was no one as amazing as him.

Fallen Immortal Ridge naturally didn't want to offend such a creature, and reconciliation would be the best outcome.

"Nothing more than wanting to see that fragment of the scripture."

“I see. No problem. It’s on a stone wall. Fellow Daoist, you can look for yourself.” The middle-aged True Immortal nodded.

"Thank you very much."

Shi Yi thanked him.

"You are welcome to visit the restricted area from time to time in the future," the middle-aged immortal said, extending a gesture of goodwill.

Shi Yi nodded and then took his leave.

He came to a stone wall inscribed with an ancient, golden script that was immortal—the lower half of the Immortal Sutra.

Without the first half, it's very difficult to cultivate the second half; it's like hanging precariously on a cliff.

This is also why the Fallen Immortal Ridge did not pay much attention to this stone wall. Many people have read this incomplete scripture, but none of them have grasped its essence.

At this moment, Shi Yi arrived and stood beneath the stone wall, comprehending the ancient scriptures. He stood there for a very long time until a burst of intense golden light erupted from his body, at which point he stopped.

Within his double pupils, symbols were densely packed, exuding an undying aura. He had finally obtained the complete Undying Scripture, a supreme body-refining scripture born of nature, exhausting the mysteries of the body-refining path. It could temper the physical body, hone the bones, and make the living being strong and immortal, eternally indestructible.

According to records, if one were to master this scripture, even if one were to perish and die one day, the physical body would not be destroyed and would still exist. In fact, millions of years later, a new primordial spirit would be born within the body, an incomparably wicked and malevolent being.

It should be noted that the records describe the newly born primordial spirit as still being the cultivator's true self, not another self. In this light, it truly aligns with the meaning of "immortality".

"As expected of the Immortal Scripture, it is so heaven-defying." Shi Yi exclaimed.

He also had considerable experience in body refinement, and his mind contained the insights of the Heavenly Emperor and the inheritance of the supreme giants, especially the inheritance of the supreme giants, which was called "eternal" and had a similar meaning to "immortality". They could learn from each other.

"Now that I have obtained the scriptures, it is time for me to depart," Shi Yi murmured.

During his visit to the forbidden zone, he did not encounter the Golden-haired Hou clan leader, who was at the Celestial King level, indicating that the other party was likely either asleep or in seclusion.

He found the middle-aged immortal, said goodbye, and then left.

After leaving the Fallen Immortal Ridge, Shi Yi strode towards the Three Thousand Dao Provinces. In the end, he crossed the boundary wall and returned to the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

The witch had been waiting there for a long time. As for Shi Hao, he had already left to return to Sin State to find Huo Ling'er.

"Should we wait for the wasteland to fall?"

"The witch asked."

"Yes, let's wait half a month. In the meantime, let's go and take a look at the Jietian Sect." Shi Yi nodded.

Upon hearing this, the witch blushed slightly. Her relatives were in the Jietian Sect, and Shi Yi taking her back felt like returning to her maternal home.

Then, the witch, holding Shi Yi's arm, descended upon the Jietian Sect, a behemoth among the three thousand Dao states, an unparalleled sect, opposed to the Butian Sect, transcending the world and looking down upon the mortal realm.

However, at this moment, this supreme sect was in a state of chaos because Shi Yi, the double-pupiled one who was famous throughout the heavens and earth, had arrived. He also had another identity: the witch's Daoist partner. Although the two had not yet officially married, it was already a fact, and they were just waiting for a formality.

"Senior Shi."

The leader of the Jietian Sect, along with a group of powerful members, greeted Shi Yi, bowed deeply to him, and performed a grand ceremony.

Everyone was beaming with joy, unable to suppress their smiles. The reason was simple: their Jietian Sect had always been at odds with the Miantian Sect, competing in every aspect. This time, Shi Yi's arrival at the sect demonstrated his stance. With Shi Yi's imposing presence, what could the Miantian Sect possibly use to fight them?

Shi Yi nodded slightly. He glanced around and saw many famous figures who were once figures he had to look up to, but now they all bowed down to him. In the eyes of others, this change had only happened in the past few years.

Only Shi Yi himself knows how long it took him to get to where he is today; those years in the era of the fallen emperor are unforgettable.

Next, Shi Yi met the witch's family. He was very approachable, chatting and laughing with them, and showing respect to the witch's elders, which warmed the witch's heart.

He left behind many valuable things, which in a sense can be considered betrothal gifts; however, the marriage is not yet imminent.

The witch's family was overjoyed and content, making no excessive demands or requests. They couldn't afford to hold the witch back at this time.

Shi Yi and the witch stayed at the Jietian Sect for a total of seven days. During those seven days, the Jietian Sect made a great fuss with gongs and drums, just in case the Mending Sect didn't know.

This infuriated the Butian Sect, but they were helpless. At present, Shi Yi was in the limelight, and no one could rival him.

After leaving the Jietian Sect, Shi Yi took the witch back to Tianyun Prefecture and Tianyun Academy, where he met the vice dean of Tianyun Academy.

Upon seeing the perfect couple, the old man couldn't help but shed tears.

Back then, Shi Yi entered the Immortal Flower Bud Competition as a disciple of Tianyun Academy. In the end, he won first place, which shocked the three thousand Dao states and made Tianyun Academy's reputation reach an unprecedented level.

Logically speaking, this could be considered repaying the favor of the Tianyun Academy spot. However, Shi Yi's return here after achieving success shows that he still cares about this place.

Shi Yi visited many familiar places, including the place where Bai Zhimiao had secluded herself...

Returning to a familiar place always evokes endless emotions.

The two stayed at Tianyun Academy for a few days. After learning of Shi Yi's arrival, the entire Tianyun Academy went crazy and was in an uproar, with everyone vying to see Shi Yi.

This was Bai Zhimiao's sect, so Shi Yi decided to give a sermon.

A familiar face appeared in the crowd; it was none other than Li Yuncong, the first generation senior disciple of Tianyun Academy, who had fought and been defeated by Shi Yi years ago.

Looking at Shi Yi's supreme and majestic figure, Li Yuncong felt as if he were in a dream. Back then, he had fought against this being. Although he lost, at least he had fought against him. How long has it been? He has already reached the top of this realm and killed the remnant immortal.

It's unimaginable, and I wonder what Shi Yi went through.

The two-week deadline arrived quickly, and Shi Yi, accompanied by the witch, waited quietly on a mountaintop.

Soon, several figures flew in from the horizon.

It was Shi Hao, but he was accompanied by two women: Huo Ling'er and Yun Xi.

Originally, there would have been no Yunxi, but Shi Yi inadvertently revealed a glimpse of the future, causing Shi Hao to confront his inner feelings. He did have feelings for Yunxi; otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life to escort her for 100,000 miles.

In the end, he decided to confess to Huo Ling'er. The latter had long known that Yun Xi had a place in Shi Hao's heart, and she did not show any objection. She just sighed inwardly that Shi Hao was too outstanding and could not belong to only her.

If nothing unexpected happens, Shi Hao also has Qingyi from the Patching Heaven Sect, and the two have too many karmic entanglements.

In the end, Shi Hao found Yun Xi. This woman had always felt guilty towards Shi Hao. Back then, he was imprisoned by the Celestial Race because he escorted her back to the City of Heaven. All these years, she had lived with guilt.

She also had feelings for Shi Hao deep down. Back then, that mischievous child had rolled around with her in Baiduan Mountain and bit off her Lingxi Pendant. Perhaps from that moment on, Shi Hao's image had been in her heart.

Finally, she was willing to go back to the lower realm with Shi Hao, which was actually an expression of her feelings for him.

"This kid is quite the ladies' man," Shi Yi said with a smile and a shake of his head.

"You're not bad either," the witch rolled her eyes at him.

Shi Yi coughed.

"I have met...elder brother."

When Huo Ling'er and Yun Xi saw Shi Yi, they greeted him with a hint of respect. In the past, they might have called him Shi Yi directly.

But now, Shi Yi is not only Huo Ling'er's savior, but also Shi Hao's brother. Although Shi Hao doesn't call him brother, they have to.

The relationship between the two stones is no longer the one of fierce hostility they once had.

Shi Yi nodded slightly.

"Now that everyone is here, let's set off. It won't be so easy to go back to the lower realm now."

There are a few ancient roads, but they are all difficult to travel.

"Which path do you plan to take? Does the Jietian Sect have a way out?" Shi Hao asked thoughtfully.

"The Intercepting Heaven Sect can only pull people up from below; sending people down is too difficult. With our cultivation level, the cost would be unimaginably terrifying." The witch shook her head.

"This time, we're taking an ancient path that was once a forbidden zone for life." Shi Yi enveloped everyone in a beam of light and vanished from the spot.

"Life restricted zone?"

"Yes, it's a forbidden zone of life that has passed away, but it hasn't completely disappeared. It has simply been transferred to the lower realm. What we need to rely on is that ancient road." Shi Yi nodded.

The next moment, the five people appeared in a ruin. The mountains were broken in pieces, as if they had been cut off by endless sword energy. All around were charred mountains, broken walls and ruins, and even the remains of gods and the rotten roots of divine medicine could be seen.

"It really is a forbidden zone for life," Shi Hao said in surprise. He found many amazing things in the ashes, but unfortunately they were all destroyed and lost their former wonder.

"Where is the road?" The witch scanned the area, but couldn't see any road at all.

"At the intersection of the moon and the sun, this needs to be deduced, because what we see is merely the surface of the forbidden zone of life."

After saying that, Shi Yi began to deduce. His double pupils emitted a brilliant light, one being a Taiyin double pupil and the other a Taiyang double pupil. His eyes evolved from Taiyin, which aroused the Taiyin and Taiyang Dao of this place.

"Boom!"

Two great rivers of completely opposite nature appeared, floating in the void and stretching across the universe. People saw many magnificent buildings situated on the banks of the two great rivers.

Chapter 426 Lord of the Forbidden Zone

However, those buildings were all dilapidated and desolate, with no trace of their former glory.

"Even the forbidden zone of life has a day of desolation?" Everyone couldn't help but sigh.

In the universe, two great rivers converge, but they do not lead to a path to the lower realm.

Shi Yi didn't pay attention and continued to deduce.

"Buzz!"

The Yin and Yang Dao of the universe were activated and converged on the place where he stood.

Ultimately, the place where Shi Yi stood became the place where the Yin and Yang met, filled with chaotic energy. An open portal stood prominently, inside which was an ancient road, paved with gray-brown stones in layers of steps, stretching all the way to an unknown distance.

Shi Hao and the others gathered around, and it turned out that someone had indeed built a road leading to the lower realm.

It seems that the Eight Realms of the Lower Realm are more important than we imagined.

“This road may seem ordinary and without danger, but it’s definitely not that simple, after all, it leads to the lower realm,” Shi Hao murmured.

“Any living being that embarks on this path will suffer pressure that surpasses their own limits. Only the two of us can pass through this path,” Shi Yi said.

After saying that, his chaotic little world cracked open. The witch and the others exchanged glances and went inside. They were not heading to the area where the ginseng fruit and the time-returning elixir were located, but to another area with stone tables and chairs. After resting for a while, they could reach the lower realm.

After settling the three women in, Shi Yi went downstairs first.

"Buzz!"

An immense pressure emanated from his body, as if countless massive stars were crashing down upon him like a tsunami.

If it were an ordinary prodigy, he would have been pulverized in less than a breath, but Shi Yi only swayed slightly before recovering as usual.

His body radiated a sacred, ethereal light, as if a celestial emperor had descended to earth.

Seeing how easily Shi Yi was doing it, Shi Hao jumped down and landed on the steps.

"puff!"

In just a moment, Shi Hao coughed up blood. His joints cracked and popped as he suffered an unimaginable impact, as if he were about to disintegrate and collapse.

If someone as powerful as him suffered such an impact, it's hard to imagine what it would be like for others to come in. This path is indeed not one that ordinary people can walk.

"laugh!"

Blood mist gushed from his pores, turning him into a blood-soaked figure, while the sounds emanating from his bones grew increasingly intense.

Fortunately, Shi Hao held on in the end, and everything around him returned to normal.

He experienced firsthand the terrifying nature of this path. Looking at the endless expanse ahead, Shi Hao couldn't help but gasp. Apart from beings like him and Shi Yi who had surpassed all limits, it was truly difficult for any other being to complete this path; they would perish halfway through.

"Let's go."

Shi Yi spoke softly, acting as if nothing was wrong, as if the stone steps posed no danger whatsoever.

Shi Hao was secretly astonished. His cousin was truly unfathomable. Heaven knows just how far he had gone.

The two walked one after the other for dozens of miles, but still could not see where the road ended.

This place is not peaceful. In the void, there are sounds of chaos surging and ancient beasts roaring. Only by listening carefully can one discover that it is actually the collision of rules and order.

Shi Yi remained expressionless, his feet never stopping, constantly landing on new stone steps, making crisp footstep sounds.

Shi Hao trembled all over, gritted his teeth, and followed behind Shi Yi, unwilling to fall behind even a little bit.

He stared at the tall figure ahead, his face filled with horror, unable to understand how Shi Yi had managed to remain calm and travel so far in such harsh conditions.

He felt that Shi Yi was holding back, and that eventually he would burst out.
