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

Of course, he also paid a considerable price, expending a great deal of his energy and spiritual strength.

These were, after all, thousands of Spirit Transformation cultivators, at the same level as Shi Yi at this moment, and not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry.

However, Shi Yi's foundation was extremely solid. With just a gentle breath, he absorbed the essence from all sides and made it his own, thus making up for the shortcomings of the previous attack.

He remained as vigorous and powerful as ever, a void battle halberd appearing in his hand. This was a divine artifact, its power terrifying and boundless. Even though his cultivation level had fallen to the Spirit Transformation stage, it was still incomparably sharp.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the void resounded as Shi Yi's speed reached its limit, bursting out of the small boat and charging towards the countless sea demon creatures.

The thousands killed by the Sword Dao Treasure Book were only a small fraction of the total; there were many more.

The silver light was intense, like a rising sun, melting everything.

Shi Yi was like a demon walking among men; with every step he took, swarms of sea demons fell, dying with their eyes wide open in disbelief.

He killed so quickly, like harvesting wheat, that no one could stop him.

Sometimes he takes the steps of a Qilin, sometimes he transforms into a golden crow, maneuvering freely and staining the blue sea with blood.

"kill him!"

The Sea Demon Venerable's spirit went mad. Even though he was a hegemon of the North Sea, he felt a chill run down his spine. He knew that he had provoked a formidable being, and if he did not deal with it, the consequences would be endless. His physical body might even die because of this karma.

The Sea Demon race obeyed the Sea Demon Lord's orders unconditionally, even though all the Sea Demons were terrified of Shi Yi.

"puff!"

Shi Yi waved his left hand, unleashing the "Universe in the Sleeve" technique, directly capturing a large number of sea demons. Then, an explosion was heard, and blood filled the air.

He magnified the five fingers of his right hand, each fingertip engraved with terrifying Taotie patterns, devouring the heavens and the earth, grabbing large swathes of sea demons into his palm and crushing them into powder.

"boom!"

Shi Yi radiated a dazzling golden light as he transformed into a golden-winged roc, revealing his terrifying physical form. He charged through the dense sea demon army, sweeping across all directions.

Even with such a massacre, the number of sea demons remained terrifying. Of course, Shi Yi never intended to kill all the sea demons; to capture the leader first, his target was always the spirit body of the Sea Demon Venerable.

Suddenly, Shi Yi's figure vanished into thin air. He used the spatial ability of the Void War Halberd to disappear from the spot and reappear at the edge of the Sea Demon Army.

This ability is extremely energy-consuming. If Shi Yi were to use it when he was a king, there would be no problem. But now, he is only a spirit.

However, this ability played a crucial role at the critical moment. He was surrounded by five-colored light, which was a great supernatural power of the Five-Colored Peacock Clan, capable of imprisoning and absorbing all things.

Not far away, the spirit body of the Sea Demon Venerable was captured by the sudden beam of five-colored light, and stood frozen in place, unable to move.

Shi Yi seized the opportunity, his feet covered in Dao patterns, and with one step, he traversed a vast distance. This was the ancient technique of shrinking the earth to an inch, reaching the ultimate speed.

"puff!"

With a soft sound, the head of the Sea Demon Venerable's spirit body was severed by the Void War Halberd. Shi Yi transformed into a gluttonous hand, grabbed its head, and held it in his hand. A terrifying pressure descended, completely suppressing it.

At the same moment, the Kunpeng Nest on the barren cliff once again emitted ripples, affecting the entire sea area.

Shi Yi moved, his blood and qi surged, and his divine light was astonishing. He recovered his peak strength, and his realm rose from the peak of the Spirit Transformation stage to the late stage of the Array Formation stage.

Without hesitation, he slapped the densely packed sea monsters behind him.

The power of this palm strike was immense; it caused the heavens and earth to collapse, the sun and moon to lose their light, and the sea demon race was instantly wiped out, reduced to ashes.

Then, Shi Yi lifted the head of the Sea Demon Venerable's spirit body and looked down at the creature.

"If you become my enemy, no matter how vast the North Sea is, there will be no place for you to hide. Just wait to die."

"what!"

The Sea Demon Lord's spirit head screamed as it was crushed on the spot.

With the two spiritual bodies dying tragically one after another, the Sea Demon Lord's physical body was inevitably affected and suffered considerable injuries.

With this, Shi Yi had eliminated all the sea demons that had approached the Kunpeng Nest.

This horrifying scene silenced everyone. The Jiao Venerable, the Sea God Palace, and many other powerful marine races all added Shi Yi to their list of people they should not provoke.

Needless to say, the forces on land had already witnessed Shi Yi's terrifying power.

When Shi Yi returned to the bow of the small boat, no living being dared to linger or fight within a mile radius around him, for fear of disturbing this Asura God of Slaughter.

This has become a strange sight.

Elites from all races, both land and sea, advanced toward the seemingly near but actually very far barren cliff. All sides were engaged in fierce battles, but the small boat carrying Shi Yi was surrounded by tranquility, like a secluded paradise.

This is a blood-stained reputation, earned through sheer strength and hard-fought battles.

In the distance, a ghost ship sailed silently. On board, Shi Hao gazed at the small boat, his eyes filled with solemnity.

He witnessed the entire battle in which Shi Yi brutally slaughtered the Sea Demon Clan, and could only say that this being was simply too powerful; he was far from being able to compare with it at present.

Shi Yi, who was sitting cross-legged at the bow of the boat, also noticed the ghost ship that no one dared to approach and that everyone avoided like the plague. He knew that Shi Hao was on board at that moment.

Chapter 123 Dojo

A pair of bright, star-like pupils contained terrifying images of the rising and falling of the sun and moon and the collapse of the universe. Even though they were separated by a mask and magical artifact, and by a great distance, there was an indescribable sense of oppression.

On the ghost ship, Shi Hao stared at him from afar. In the darkness, he had an inexplicable feeling, as if there was a deep karmic connection between the two of them.

"Illusion?"

Shi Hao muttered to himself, lost in deep thought.

Shi Yi withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention to Shi Hao. Now was not the time for the two Shis to clash. Shi Hao was too young and did not have the strength to fight him.

The rest of the journey was peaceful.

Shi Yi slew the spirit bodies of Venerables, earning a formidable reputation that no one dared to provoke. Shi Hao, on the other hand, rode a ghost ship, inspiring fear in everyone and deterring them from approaching.

As for other sea and land creatures, the frequency of their battles and fights has visibly decreased. Most of them fight because of hatred, and the behavior of eliminating competitors has greatly reduced. The reason is simple: Shi Yi's powerful move has greatly shocked them.

The powerful Sea Demon clan was wiped out, all at the hands of one man. This meant that the balance had been broken, and Shi Yi's existence made all the forces wary.

Everyone is pondering the same question: after the Kunpeng Treasure Technique is revealed, who can rival Shi Yi?

It seems that only by joining forces can we possibly defeat him.

For this reason, the elites of various races began to conserve their strength and no longer fought and killed each other so fiercely.

Shi Yi was not surprised by this. If the journey to Kunpeng's Nest was a battle among heroes, then a fierce fight was inevitable.

But now, he has revealed a terrifying side beyond the imagination of the world. Even the ocean races, who are skilled in human wave tactics, are at a loss when facing him.

In this situation, preserving strength is the best option.

And so, the various forces remained at peace and continued their voyage.

Apart from Shi Yi, no one expected that the barren cliff, which seemed so close, was inaccessible until half a month later when they finally got close.

The ancient cliff suddenly became vast and insurmountable, covered with claw marks, knife marks, sword holes, and imprints left by various weapons, recording the glory and splendor of countless years ago.

A stone staircase emerged, stretching across the vast ocean, leading to the magnificent cliff. It was boundless and frighteningly wide, capable of accommodating countless people and horses to land at the same time, and even if they moved side by side, they would not feel crowded.

Once here, all living beings must climb the stone steps to reach the Kunpeng Nest.

The powerful forces took the lead, striding forward on the stone steps, while the weaker creatures stayed behind to wait.

The fluctuations emanating from the Kunpeng Nest are currently unstable, sometimes suppressing all living beings and sometimes releasing them, which is very beneficial to beings of higher realms.

Therefore, the weak must wait for the pressure from the Kunpeng Nest to stabilize and continue to suppress the cultivators' cultivation before they can set off.

Shi Yi didn't need to worry about so much.

He is invincible as long as the Venerable One himself does not come. Even if the Venerable One himself comes, he will not be afraid. He does not mind cutting down a Venerable One in front of all living beings.

Shi Yi stowed the small boat, and the blue-eyed golden-eyed beast, which had been resting on the bottom of the boat, perked up. It knew it was time to do its work, so it took the initiative to lie down and kneel down on its two front knees to make it easier for Shi Yi to sit on it.

"Azure-eyed Golden-eyed Beast!"

The sea creatures exclaimed in surprise, for that was one of the ten ancient mounts, highly skilled in water escape techniques. It was said that the sea god who once roamed the North Sea had always wanted to possess one, but this race was too rare, and he never got his wish even after the sea god perished.

Unexpectedly, that ruthless man who slaughtered the sea demons possessed one, which he rode astride, exuding a majestic and awe-inspiring aura.

Previously, because the Azure-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast had transformed into the size of a small dog and was lying at the bottom of the ship, they hadn't seen it. Now that it had returned to its original size, the sense of oppression instantly increased.

Ignoring the stares of those around him, Shi Yi rode his mount forward.

This stone staircase is truly vast. From a distance, it appears as a single path, but once you actually ascend it, you realize it's practically an entire continent. This is the work of Kunpeng, beyond the realm of ordinary understanding.

The deeper you go, the more you realize your own insignificance. The runes here have seized the power of heaven and earth, forming their own universe.

Shi Yi's eyes shone brightly as he walked and looked around. In the distance, he seemed to see a giant roc soaring into the heavens and exploring the netherworld, seemingly omnipotent.

Finally, after twenty days, he arrived at the foot of the barren cliff. Many forces followed him from a distance, deliberately pushing him to the forefront, intending to make him the target of everyone's attacks.

Shi Yi naturally knew their intentions, but he didn't care. He rode alone at the front, leaving only his back to the world.

He arrived at the foot of the barren cliff and rode his blue-eyed, golden-eyed beast upwards.

Soon, Shi Yi reached the summit, which was barren and devoid of any vegetation, only shrouded in endless mist and shimmering light. Mysterious fluctuations spread out, and it was these fluctuations that suppressed the spiritual realm of all living beings.

He was the first to reach the top, and with just a glance, he saw a magnificent ancient array, undoubtedly a teleportation array leading to the true Kunpeng Nest.

Without hesitation, Shi Yi stepped into the teleportation array, and disappeared in a flash of light.

"Xuan Yi is gone. He stepped onto the teleportation array and disappeared from the mountaintop."

"Kunpeng, as one of the Ten Fiends, is indeed extraordinary. I knew it. How could it possibly build a nest on the sea? There's a hidden world behind this teleportation array."

"Legend has it that Kunpeng's Daoist temple is located in the realm of gods. This may not be unfounded, or it may be that the Daoist temple he established is a divine land that forms its own universe."

The crowd discussed it amongst themselves, and soon they realized that the barren cliff was just a stepping stone, and the real Kunpeng nest was on the other side of the ancient ruins.

"Hurry up! Xuan Yi should be the first to enter the Kunpeng Divine Land. Don't let him monopolize this great opportunity!" someone shouted.

His statement was endorsed by both land and sea forces, and the cliff top was immediately crowded with people rushing towards the ancient remnant array to teleport, fearing that Shi Yi would gain the upper hand. His terrifying combat power was evident to all, and once he obtained the Kunpeng Treasure Technique, he would be even more powerful.

At this moment, Shi Yi had arrived on a small island. This island was quite dreamlike, and everything was golden.

There are many such islands, scattered like stars in the sky, forming more than a dozen pathways around a reef, leading to that reef.

Atop the reef sits an ancient nest, so vast and magnificent, constructed from countless divine trees. Boundless and awe-inspiring, it resonates through the ages, filled with chaotic energy—a truly astonishing sight.

In Shi Yi's double pupils, the Kunpeng Nest resembled a colossal sleeping beast, terrifying to the extreme.

He didn't rush to get close to the Kunpeng Nest; there was still a long time before it would split open on its own, so there was no need to rush.

Shi Yi strongly agreed with the suggestion regarding the Six Paths of Reincarnation, believing that entering the Kunpeng Nest in advance to obtain the Kunpeng Treasure Technique could avoid a lot of trouble.

He is now the center of attention and has become the target of everyone's criticism. If he goes deeper into the fray, he will inevitably be besieged.

Having been suppressed to the Spirit Transformation Realm, Shi Yi will face many Spirit Transformation experts, which are far beyond what those sea demons can compare to.

Therefore, Shi Yi plans to collect Kunpeng's relics and enter Kunpeng's Nest ahead of time.

However, he had other things to do before that.

The body-refining place of Kunpeng, one of the Ten Fiends, is located beneath this vast ocean formed by the convergence of vital energy. That environment can help Shi Yi further temper his body, which is of great use to him. If he misses this opportunity, he doesn't know when he will be able to come to Kunpeng's Nest again.

Anyway, there's still a long time before the Kunpeng Nest cracks open, so there's plenty of time.

Shi Yi did not immediately enter the seabed to search for places like the Yangyang Cave. Instead, he left the Azure-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast and headed straight for the island reef. Since the body-refining place could be visited at any time, the opportunities in front of him could not be. First come, first served.

Above the island, there is a huge gate of light, standing alongside the Kunpeng Nest. It is blazing brightly, as if connected to the divine realm, and a river flows out from it, emptying into the vast ocean.

The entire river was formed from liquefied spiritual energy, crystal clear, bursting forth with brilliant rosy light. As soon as you approached it, you felt as if you were ascending to heaven, feeling completely relaxed and indescribably comfortable.

Shi Yi knew that behind the light gate was a frozen world, where a giant bell had stabilized the universe, and the black paper boat that had drifted for eternity on the North Sea came from this river.

He had no intention of entering the gate of light, as his current cultivation level was too weak. His goal was a divine tree in front of the gate of light.

Before any creatures from the outside world could enter, Shi Yi quickly arrived at the enormous gate of light. Within that blazing gate lay a piece of rotten wood. Although it was almost decayed from being soaked in the river water, it still radiated a brilliant divine light, making it appear very sacred.

This is a branch, about the thickness of a bucket, covered with dragon patterns. It's rotten beyond recognition, yet it still radiates a rich divine light, which is quite astonishing.

The branches are covered with bright green leaves, crystal clear, which have the magical effect of helping people to understand the Tao, making them a true treasure.

In fact, this is the World Tree of the Primordial Ancient Realm during the Immortal Ancient Era. The invasion of this realm by alien forces led to the destruction of the Immortal Ancient Era. As a pillar of the realm, the World Tree also suffered a devastating blow. In the end, only this piece of rotten wood and a crystal leaf remain.

Even so, it remains a rare treasure, and Shi Yi is determined to obtain it.

Without hesitation, he used the divine artifact Void Halberd. This weapon contained spatial laws and was compatible with his double pupils, allowing it to unleash tremendous power in Shi Yi's hands.

"boom!"

The Void Halberd moved, but before it could strike the river of essence, Shi Yi's Double Pupils of Heaven-Opening arrived first, producing a deafening roar.

The flow of vital energy was momentarily cut off by the Double Pupil's Heaven-Opening Technique, but the Void Halberd followed closely behind, cleaving open the space there. The rotten wood embedded within immediately loosened, and Shi Yi's eyes gleamed as he reached out his large hand to catch it and put it into his pocket.
