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

Without a doubt, this is a devastating weapon; once activated, it will surely cause the world to collapse.

He also packed up the other treasures, selected some that were very useful, and set them aside for his convenience.

After clearing out the treasure room, Shi Yi headed to the next location.

Alchemy Room!

Three ancient characters are engraved on the plaque and hung high above the door of the alchemy room.

Shi Yi pushed open the stone door and entered the alchemy room. A tall alchemy furnace came into view. It had three legs and two handles, and the furnace body was round. It was carved with flowers, birds, insects, fish, and all things in the universe. An extraordinary Daoist aura swirled around the furnace and could be easily sensed.

In addition, there is a refreshing medicinal fragrance that makes people feel comfortable all over.

"Bang!"

Shi Yi took action, lifted the furnace lid, and found a pool of ashes at the bottom, seemingly the result of a failed alchemy attempt.

His mouth and nose trembled as he blew hard towards the bottom of the furnace, instantly causing dust to scatter and revealing the scene below.

A pill the size of a pigeon egg appeared. Shi Yi's face lit up with joy. He picked up the pill, held it in his palm, and examined it carefully.

The pill was covered with pill patterns, exuding astonishing spiritual energy and faintly revealing a massive spiritual pressure. In the perspective of the double pupils, this pill was even more exaggerated, simply like a dazzling sun, beyond imagination.

Clearly, this was the last batch of divine pills refined by the Dao Palace Master, who, due to some unforeseen circumstances, did not have time to collect them.

After observing it repeatedly, Shi Yi roughly understood the purpose of this pill: it was for improving one's cultivation level, which was perfect for him.

Moreover, the divine pill is extremely precious; all the resources he currently possesses combined are not as effective as this single divine pill.

Shi Yi carefully put it away. Then, he checked the rest of the alchemy room, but unfortunately, he didn't find anything.

Finally, he tried and moved the entire alchemy furnace.

"Boom!"

The alchemy furnace is of a very high grade, made by an ancient powerful being, and is naturally not an ordinary object.

With the alchemy furnace in his possession, Shi Yi left the place and began to plunder other treasure lands.

In the pill room, Shi Yi acquired several more gourds filled with precious pills, each containing a few pills with different uses.

Inside the Sutra Repository, Shi Yi acquired several powerful supernatural abilities, such as Shrinking the Earth to an Inch, the Five Elements Sword Formation, and the Five Elements Rope...

This shows that the owner of this Taoist palace was proficient in the Five Elements.

This perfectly aligns with Shi Yi's abilities, as he wields the Qilin Technique, cultivates the five internal organs, and controls the five elements.

Shi Yi knew these precious laws like the back of his hand and put them away.

He also picked several amazing medicinal plants from the medicinal field that had grown from ancient times to the present day, all of which had reached the level of sacred medicine.

Shi Yi estimated that there should be even more miraculous medicines here, but they had been used up by the master.

Soon after, relying on his double pupils, he found a treasure trove. After spending a lot of effort to open it, he obtained cultivation resources of astonishing quantity and quality, covering all aspects of cultivation.

After sweeping away all the treasures in the Dao Palace, Shi Yi arrived at the cultivation place of the Dao Palace Master. He traveled through the depths and opened a secret room, where he saw a pile of ashes.

The once glorious ancient beings have perished in the long river of time.

From the few lines of ancient characters before the ashes, Shi Yi learned the reason for the Dao Palace Master's demise.

He came from the Upper Realm and participated in the Ancient War. He was seriously injured in the war, and the forces behind him became the losers. Even returning to the Upper Realm became a luxury. Helpless, he passed away here.

Shi Yi sighed. What was the reason for the ancient war?

Many living beings participated, but later generations have long since lost sight of the true cause.

Shi Yi only knew a few pieces of information related to the ancient war, such as the decline of the Supreme Hall, the fall of the Pumo Tree, the ancient woman with double pupils, and the disease that the sacrificial tree of the Patching Heaven Pavilion had developed.

Even when all this information is put together, it is still difficult to piece together the causes and consequences of a major war.

Chapter 82: Killing in the Arena

In any case, time has passed, the ancient times are gone, and those once glorious people and things have all disappeared.

Talented people emerge in every generation, each leading the way for millions of years.

Shi Yi bowed solemnly to the pile of ashes. He had gained an unimaginable opportunity in this Dao Palace, all thanks to the ancient master who left behind the cave. He was naturally grateful.

Afterwards, Shi Yi circled around the Dao Palace again, using his double pupils to scan the surroundings for any hidden compartments or similar items.

After confirming that nothing was missing, he returned the way he came and flew out of the crack. The gray stone mountain remained the same, but as soon as Shi Yi's figure flew out of the crack, the stone mountain collapsed and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only a dark spatial crack in the place.

He sighed softly and left the place.

During the rest of the journey, Shi Yi activated his double pupils and traveled at high speed through the thick gray fog. After a considerable amount of effort, he finally crossed the vast dark forest and arrived at the heart of the Hundred Races Battlefield.

The number of people here has increased, with various forces occupying the area, making it equivalent to a small wasteland.

However, the situation on the battlefield of a hundred races is even more complex. The ancient geniuses of those who have never been born, the proud princesses and princes of the ancient human kingdoms, the pure-blooded beings of the ancient divine mountains, and so on, have all gathered together, pushing the cruelty and terror of the battlefield of a hundred races to a new level.

To become famous in the desolate region, besides breaking records in the Void God Realm and shocking the world, there is another way: to sweep across the battlefield of the Hundred Races and earn an invincible reputation.

In the original story, the ninth prince of the Stone Kingdom achieved an impressive 49-game winning streak on the battlefield of the Hundred Clans, thus becoming famous throughout the world.

Now, Shi Yi has arrived, ready to hone his skills here.

Compared to the Beast Prison in the Void God Realm, the pure-blooded beings here are of varying quality, and this level of training is no longer enough for Shi Yi. His goal is the ten trials set up by the beings of the Upper Realm.

These challenges require players to fight against opponents of the same level. The standards are extremely high compared to the lower realms. Since ancient times, those who have been able to pass these challenges have all been extraordinary geniuses who have amazed the world.

However, to enter those ten levels, one must first obtain the qualification to enter, which requires Shi Yi to achieve fifty consecutive victories in the extremely competitive and brutal arena.

There are fifty great ways, forty-nine of which are derived from heaven, and one is missing.

The number fifty is in accordance with the way of Heaven.

Without a doubt, the ninth prince of the Stone Kingdom is an extraordinary genius. He exited the Hundred Races Battlefield with a 49-game winning streak, and is stuck before the 50-game winning streak mark.

Shi Yi arrived but didn't go anywhere else. Apart from the Dark Forest, the area had been divided up by powerful forces, so there wasn't much to explore.

He went straight to the outside of the arena, which was already packed with cultivators.

Among them were challengers preparing to take the stage, as well as spectators from various factions, all gathered together to witness the brutal competition in the arena.

The rules here are simple: any creature that wants to enter the arena simply draws a number. The holder of the number can challenge the winner in the arena. If no challenger appears within the specified time, the arena will automatically select a number to enter the arena.

Shi Yi received a number plate as soon as he arrived. It was engraved with ancient characters and numbers, representing Shi Yi's level of attainment and number.

"Cave Heaven Realm, 30,000..."

There are over 30,000 beings at the Cave Heaven Realm participating in the competition alone, and the total number across all realms is absolutely astonishing.

It should be known that all beings qualified to participate in the Battle of a Hundred Races are cultivation geniuses.

It can be said that the battlefield of a hundred races has gathered almost all the most powerful and talented individuals in the desolate region.

He took his number and went to the arena's waiting area, showing no intention of watching the fight; he was ready to go straight into the arena.

Many beings share his thoughts and are queuing up in the preparation area.

The creatures here sat in twos and threes, while others walked alone. Some were talking, while others closed their eyes to rest, quietly waiting for their turn.

Shi Yi followed the order, arrived at a spot, sat down cross-legged alone, and showed no intention of communicating with anyone.

The creatures ahead were not surprised by the arrival of the new challenger, but many eyes still turned toward Shi Yi.

The reason is simple: they go on stage before the later ones. If they win consecutively, their opponents will be the creatures waiting in line. If they have the opportunity to observe their opponents in advance, they will naturally not miss it.

Unfortunately, Shi Yi was shrouded in chaotic mist, which blocked all divine sense detection below the Venerable level. No matter how strong the divine sense of these beings was, they could not see anything at all.

Shi Yi ignored these gazes, closing his eyes to rest and regulate his internal energy in order to reach his optimal state.

As time went by, the number of challengers ahead gradually decreased, and gasps of surprise frequently echoed from the arena, as if they were shocked by the fierce battles taking place.

Normally, the battles here are evenly matched, and only every now and then will a genius emerge who crushes the enemy and becomes famous throughout the wasteland.

Today, Shi Yi encountered one such person. Without exception, all the beings ahead of him fell at the hands of a prodigy. This was an unparalleled genius from the human race who had opened up nine cave heavens in the cave heaven realm.

For the desolate region, the Nine Cave Heavens can be considered the pinnacle; the Ten Cave Heavens are extremely rare.

He stood tall in the arena, dressed in black, with a cold expression, and blood flowing beneath his feet.

To date, this prodigy has achieved an impressive record of thirty-six consecutive victories. Behind this remarkable achievement are eighteen bloody corpses of various races, lying helplessly on the field, their bodies still warm and bleeding profusely.

It's almost Shi Yi's turn; there's one person ahead of him.

After this creature entered the arena, it was quickly suppressed by the black-clad youth with overwhelming superiority.

The boy in black did not kill him, and let him leave.

The spectators at the arena were not surprised by this, because the black-clad youth's principle was to spare the odd numbers and eliminate the even numbers.

Unfortunately, Shi Yi was one of the even-numbered individuals.

"Another young prodigy is about to fall in the Cave Heaven area. If nothing unexpected happens, twenty-four young talents will die here today." Someone in the audience sighed.

Given the black-clad youth's strength, he will inevitably stop at the 49-game winning streak mark.

Shi Yi naturally noticed this as well, but he was not afraid at all. He himself was a Ninth Heaven Realm cultivator, and with his double pupils, incomparably powerful physical body, inexhaustible divine power, and heaven-defying treasure techniques, he could suppress even if the other party was also a Ninth Heaven Realm cultivator.

As soon as Shi Yi stood in the arena, a terrifying killing intent swept over him from the black-clad youth and descended upon him.

Shi Yi stood still, a terrifying vision of creation appearing in his eyes.

Chapter 83 Blood God Tower

The black-clad youth's eyes were cold, for it was time for him to kill an even number of lives again.

"laugh!"

A dark, longsword radiating a chilling aura appeared in his hand, its surface covered with deep black patterns and mysterious symbols. The entire sword seemed not to be an inanimate object, but rather as if it possessed a breath, constantly emitting sword light.

On even-numbered days, the black-clad youth would take out this treasure and kill his enemies in a few swift moves; most of the time, a single sword strike was enough to subdue them.

In the battlefield of a hundred races teeming with geniuses, some have distinguished themselves, shining like a high-hanging imperial star.

The boy in black was clearly one of these people; blood still dripped from the terrifying sword, demonstrating its dreadfulness.

He did not make a move immediately, but stared intently at Shi Yi opposite him. His intuition told him that this opponent was no ordinary person. He could not see through the mist surrounding him, unlike his previous opponents who could be seen through at a glance.

"Your strength is not bad, but unfortunately, you will still die after meeting me." The black-clad youth spoke tentatively. Although he could not see through Shi Yi, he had absolute confidence in his own strength.

Shi Yi remained silent. Seeing that his opponent was a sword cultivator, he became interested and wanted to compete with this being.

Although he couldn't use the Heavenly Calamity Light and Yin-Yang Sword Qi, as it would expose his identity, Shi Yi obtained a Five Elements Sword Formation in the scripture storage room of the ancient powerful being's cave. This secret technique, combined with the Qilin Technique that Shi Yi had mastered, was enough to unleash the terrifying power of the Five Elements Dao.

"Buzz!"

A phantom sword materialized in Shi Yi's hand. Then, his internal organs trembled, and a vast amount of the five elements' power poured into the sword, making it appear in five colors. Sword energy surged forth, spitting out killing light, and an astonishing sword aura emanated from it, facing off against the treasure in the black-clad youth's hand.

Seeing this, the black-clad youth narrowed his eyes. He knew he might have met a tough opponent; this being's aura was unfathomable.

The two stood facing each other, exuding murderous intent, locked onto each other.

When imperial stars collide, one side will always fall first. Both the black-clad youth and Shi Yi understood that once they fell, it would mean death and annihilation, and the enemy would show no mercy.

The tense standoff between the two creatures alerted the creatures in the audience stands that something was amiss.

Such a standoff never occurred in previous battles; the black-clad youth always struck with lightning speed, slaying the creatures on his side.

This time, however, they hesitated to set off, clearly because they had encountered a true prodigy.

"Who is this creature shrouded in mist? The Five Elements Sword? I've never seen such a secret technique in the desolate region before." Many people were filled with doubt and speculation about Shi Yi's origins.

As for the black-clad youth opposite him, judging from the footwork and secret techniques he had used before, one could vaguely guess what he was like.

Just as the beings in the audience were discussing, the standoff in the arena ended. Shi Yi and the black-clad youth engaged in a fierce battle in the blink of an eye. The two were incredibly fast, and even beings from the same cave realm could barely see their shadows, only hearing the continuous metallic clanging sounds in the void.

Sparks flew as the two longswords clashed repeatedly, each forming its own domain. One side exuded a chilling aura, while the other emanated the power of the five elements. They crushed and overwhelmed each other, attempting to suppress and obliterate one another.

In a short moment, more than a dozen collision sounds rang out.

The spectators were all shocked. The black-clad youth had already proven his strength by achieving a 37-game winning streak. Now, the youth shrouded in mist was able to match him, which was truly astonishing.

In the entire desolate region, those who can reach the Ninth Heavenly Realm can be counted on two hands.

Unbeknownst to them, the incredibly confident young man in black was already drenched in sweat.

In his duel with Shi Yi, he had to exert all his strength to keep up with Shi Yi's pace. Since his debut, this was the first time he had encountered such a terrifying opponent of the same level, which made the black-clad youth feel extremely incredulous.

He could sense that Shi Yi had mastered the Five Elements Sword to perfection. Every strike was incredibly powerful, making his arm go numb and his fingers tremble slightly.

Who is this?
