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

"Shi Yi greets his father."

Shi Yi bowed respectfully.

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Shi Ziteng's face. His eyes were deep as he looked at Shi Yi's double pupils, the Supreme Bone covered with runes in his chest, and his cultivation status in the Blood Moving Realm. He couldn't help but say "Good".

For a five-year-old child to achieve this is already far beyond what he did at that age.

Next, Shi Ziteng had a chat with his grandfather Shi Yuan, the two elders of the Martial King's Mansion. He briefly described his cultivation at the Demon Spirit Lake and then inquired about Shi Ziling's disturbance at the Martial King's Mansion.

Then he said to the three of them, "Grandpa, great-grandfathers, you can rest assured that Yi'er is with me. Outsiders are not allowed to enter Demon Spirit Lake, not even my relatives. So please go back."

When Yi'er has completed his studies, he will leave and return to the Wu King's mansion. The clansmen there need not worry too much.

Shi Yuan and the two old men exchanged a glance and nodded to each other.

"With Ziteng here, we naturally have no worries about Yi'er's safety."

After saying their goodbyes, the three of them turned and left, disappearing at an extremely fast speed at the horizon.

After watching his elders leave, Shi Ziteng turned around, called out to Shi Yi, and led him into the Demon Spirit Lake to meet the strongest being there.

Under Shi Ziteng's guidance, Shi Yi finally set foot on the land of the ancient sacred mountain.

From a distance, the ancient architectural complex appears magnificent and grand. Upon closer inspection, the feeling intensifies. The towering stone gates and majestic palaces bear the marks of time, ancient and weathered. Stepping into this place is like entering a historical site.

Along the way, huge spiders of all colors can be seen everywhere, but the most eye-catching are the golden spiders.

Legend has it that the ancestor of the Demon Spirit Lake lineage was a golden spider, extremely powerful, who eventually transformed into a celestial god. The so-called descendants of the celestial god originated from this.

Each golden spiderling is a gifted being; the purer the gold on its body, the purer its bloodline.

However, whether one can become the strongest is not determined by the purity of one's bloodline, although it has some influence, it is not absolute.

For example, the creature that just spoke with Shi Yi and Shi Ziteng was not a golden spider, but a different bloodline—the Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider. Compared to the pure-blooded golden spiders of the same period, its starting point was not that high. However, this Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider worked hard to cultivate and evolve, and after experiencing many hardships, it finally reached the Venerable Realm.

The spiders in the Demon Spirit Lake were very curious about Shi Yi, the newcomer, and came out of the palace to watch. Their thick spider legs stood upright, supporting their huge bodies, and the hairs on them, which looked like steel needles, were clearly visible. Their eyes stared straight at Shi Yi and his son. Each spider had several pairs of eyes, making them look sinister and terrifying.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, it would be impossible to remain calm while walking under the watchful eyes of so many terrifying spiders; it would be a miracle if their legs didn't tremble.

However, Shi Yi and his son were both incredibly calm. Shi Ziteng, needless to say, had been cultivating in the Demon Spirit Lake for many years, and all the spiders knew of his existence. He was a young human highly valued by the clan's powerful members. Shi Yi, on the other hand, was quite extraordinary. It was hard to imagine that a five-year-old human child could calmly move among the spiders of the Demon Spirit Lake without even blinking, as if they were nothing to him.

Furthermore, Shi Yi's eyes shone brightly, his aura was extraordinary, and his whole body was shrouded in a sacred halo, as if a young god had descended to the human world and was walking among people.

Many spiders realized that this human child was likely to be even more amazing than his father, with limitless potential for future achievements.

"Is that double pupils? Just like in the legends, one eye with two pupils." A group of young spiders gathered together, talking about Shi Yi's eyes.

“Those are terrifying heterochromatic eyes. Just making eye contact with them gives you the feeling that your whole body can be seen through,” said a young spider covered in golden spots.

The other spiderlings also spoke up, all of them wary of those eyes.

As early as ancient times, those with double pupils had already earned a formidable reputation in battle. The ancient books left behind by the ancestors of Demon Spirit Lake contain detailed records of this talent.

However, some spiderlings remained calm and composed, showing no signs of distress. These were spiders with relatively pure bloodlines and remarkable talents.

Chapter 18 Test

Along the way, Shi Ziteng would occasionally turn his head, reveal a smile, and greet some large spiders on both sides of the road. It was clear that they were important creatures in the Demon Spirit Lake and held a high status.

"A person with double pupils? Indeed extraordinary, just as described in ancient books."

An old, large spider approached, its eight legs incredibly thick, covered with long hairs and menacing stingers, exuding a chilling and terrifying aura.

It stood in the middle of the road, blocking their way.

"Master."

Shi Ziteng bowed respectfully to the ancient spider. Years ago, it was this spider that had unexpectedly formed a bond with him, taking a liking to his talent for cultivation and accepting him as a disciple.

It is considered one of the top experts in Demon Spirit Lake, with a very high status. Standing in the Array Realm, according to the human race's title, it can be called a king or marquis. It is precisely because of this that Shi Ziteng was able to break with convention and enter Demon Spirit Lake to cultivate.

"Hmm, so this is your offspring? Not bad, a promising talent." The old spider nodded.

"Yi'er, this is your grandmaster, hurry up and pay your respects."

"Yes, Shi Yi, pay respects to Grandmaster." Shi Yi said.

The old spider nodded slightly, its eight eyes staring intently at Shi Yi, as if trying to see through him inside and out. When it saw the glowing bone inside Shi Yi's chest, the old spider showed surprise.

Because the bone contains intricate symbols, like the stars in the heavens, mysterious and powerful, even staring at it for too long can cause dizziness.

"Supreme Bone! What astonishing talent, coupled with double pupils... This child's future is unpredictable; he may become an unparalleled being who overturns the landscape of the desolate region." The old spider gave an extremely high evaluation.

Then, it made way and said to Shi Ziteng, "Go, the ancestor has been waiting for a long time."

Legend has it that the supreme talent—double pupils—which earned unparalleled fame in the ancient war, has been something it has long awaited.

Shi Ziteng nodded.

The "ancestor" mentioned by his master was not the Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider at the Venerable Realm, but the Lord of Demon Spirit Lake, an incomparably powerful old golden spider.

It is a pure-blooded being with the purest divine bloodline. After becoming a Venerable One, it dominated this field and had few rivals.

Led by Shi Ziteng, Shi Yi arrived at the most magnificent and oldest palace in the ancient building complex.

Pushing open the heavy stone door, one is greeted by a dazzling display of gold, carved beams and painted rafters, a magnificent sight. Everywhere one can see lifelike carvings that tell the legendary story of a golden spider defying the heavens to become a god in ancient times, storming into the realm of the gods, and creating the ancient divine mountain, Demon Spirit Lake.

Shi Yi's gaze swept across the carvings, pausing between them.

At this moment, an aged voice came from deep within the palace. It was the Lord of Demon Spirit Lake, a huge golden spider.

Its entire body shone brilliantly, as if cast from gold. Even when its body was shrunk and it stood on the main hall, it was still several feet long. In fact, the golden spider's true form was as majestic as a mountain.

Its aura was terrifying; it remained motionless, like an ancient fossil.

However, the golden spider's eyes were open, there were ten of them, each flowing with golden divine light, and there was an indescribable sense of oppression wherever it looked.

Shi Ziteng dared not be rude and immediately pulled Shi Yi to perform a deep bow.

"Shi Ziteng pays respects to the patriarch."

"Shi Yi pays respects to the patriarch."

The main hall was spacious, with golden patterns lighting up on the floor, surrounded by chaotic energy.

The golden spider, at the Venerable level, opened all ten of its eyes and looked down at the human father and son below the hall. It did not speak immediately, but stared intently at Shi Yi's double pupils, and various information about double pupils surfaced in its mind.

In that glorious ancient war, the double-pupiled beings emerged out of nowhere, shining brightly and claiming to be invincible, leaving an indelible shadow on many races.

Now, it has finally seen the owner of this talent with its own eyes.

The golden spider didn't say much, but simply stretched out one of its legs and gently touched the area below the hall.

Instantly, runes surged, like golden stars condensing and arranging in the void, forming a small spider about ten feet in size, its entire body golden, possessing terrifying blood power.

When the spider legs move in unison, they can unleash tremendous force that terrifies even cultivators at the Blood Refining Realm.

The little golden spider moved its legs and rushed towards Shi Yi, creating gusts of wind. In an instant, an overwhelming pressure swept over them.

Shi Ziteng did not intervene, but instead dodged to make way. He knew that the old golden spider was testing Shi Yi's abilities.

Whether Shi Yi can gain the full support of Demon Spirit Lake depends on his own fortune. If he can defeat the Little Golden Spider, then his great fortune will be secured. If he is defeated by the Little Golden Spider, then things will be hard to say.

With Shi Ziteng's profound cultivation, he could naturally see that the little golden spider was superior to Shi Yi in both its blood and qi power and its control over runes. Logically speaking, if the two were to clash, Shi Yi would be the loser. However, Shi Yi possessed double pupils, so it was hard to say who would win.

"boom!"

The hurricane swept through the entire hall, and five-year-old Shi Yi stood firm like a pillar in the middle of the hurricane, unmoved. However, his robes and hair were fluttering and rustling in the wind.

Faced with the menacing Golden Spider, Shi Yi displayed a composure beyond his years. His eyes shone brightly, and chains of divine order danced in his pupils, seeing through illusions and looking directly at the source, using stillness to control movement.

Unbeknownst to him, a faint mist enveloped his body, making his figure somewhat blurry. He entered a strange state, as if he had stepped into his own absolute domain.

The golden spiders attacked with incredible speed, their legs flying everywhere like golden scythes slicing through the void. Moreover, their power was terrifying. Shi Yi estimated that if he were to be hit by one, he would be instantly cleaved in two and die without a burial place.

Fortunately, he possesses double pupils, which creates an environment favorable to him, allowing him to slow down his opponent's movements. As long as the opponent's speed does not exceed his by much, they cannot negate this power of the rules.

Then, Shi Yi made one strange move after another in the air. Each move was just right, perfectly avoiding the golden spider's spider leg attack. Even though it had eight legs and was swinging them until they were smoking, it could not hurt Shi Yi in the slightest. All of them were dodged.

However, the golden spider's basic abilities were superior to Shi Yi's, and it still managed to cut off several pieces of his clothes, leaving terrifying scratches visible between his robes.

Suddenly, Shi Yi stopped dodging and stood still, his body surging with an astonishing power of blood and qi, faintly accompanied by the sound of a resounding bell. He attacked with all his might, swinging his right fist towards the Golden Spider's abdomen.

The speed was too fast; all the attacks were launched in an instant, and the angles were tricky, the timing was just right, leaving the opponent with no way to avoid them.

Chapter 19 A God-like Youth

"boom!"

After a deafening roar, the golden spider was severely injured. Its abdomen was the weakest point in its body, and none of this escaped Shi Yi's eyes.

The golden spider, over ten feet long, flew back, a fist-sized dent appearing on its abdomen, from which golden blood flowed, and its whole body trembled.

Shi Yi's punch seemed to be precisely calculated, striking the opponent's vitals directly. With one punch, he knocked out his opponent's internal organs, turning his world upside down, and almost rendering him unable to fight.

Seeing this, Old Golden Spider and Shi Ziteng were both secretly astonished.

Despite being superior to Shi Yi in every aspect, the little golden spider was constantly restrained and at a disadvantage.

All of this was caused by those terrifying eyes.

"Roar!"

The golden spider roared, ceasing all close combat. In close combat within the mist created by Shi Yi's double pupils, unless one possessed extreme speed, they would not escape the punishment of the double pupils.

Even though it has the advantage in terms of blood and energy and physical strength, it is still no match for Shi Yi.

"Buzz!"

If close combat doesn't work, then let's try ranged combat. The golden spider's body bursts with brilliant golden light, and golden runes burst out from its spider legs, forming a huge golden spider avatar behind it.

Instantly, a terrifying pressure spread out, far exceeding the most powerful magic technique that Shi Yi currently possessed in terms of power.

Within the Golden Spider Dharma Form, all the spider legs transformed into golden chains of divine order, rushing towards Shi Yi in an overwhelming manner, attempting to bind and restrain him.

At the same time, the Golden Spider Dharma Form opened its mouth and spat out one after another golden beams of light as thick as a bowl. Each beam was extremely powerful, and if one were to be grazed by one, the consequences would be unpredictable.

As Shi Yi dodged and weaved to avoid the attack, his eyes had already discerned the flaws in the Golden Spider Dharma Form.

It should be noted that during the great battle at the Martial King's Mansion, Shi Yi had not yet entered the Blood Transformation Realm. At that time, he could see through the weakness of the precious technique used by Shi Ziling at a glance, let alone this golden spider at the Blood Transformation Realm level in front of him.

He seized the opportunity, his jet-black hair flying, and with a soft shout, dense symbols burst forth from his hands, arranging themselves in the void to form a colossal Bixie, roaring and attracting the attention of the golden chains of divine order flying above the sky.

The next moment, the golden spider manipulated these golden chains of divine order, wrapping the enormous Bixie around and around, tightening them with all its might.

Bi'an roared to the sky, the runes within its body flickering and showing signs of collapse. Shi Yi was not surprised by this. In terms of the power of the magic technique, it was far inferior to the Dharma form displayed by the Golden Spider. Even if Shi Yi perfectly presented the magic technique, he could not make up for the gap in cultivation.

However, the Bixie Treasure Technique was originally intended to lure the enemy; his true killing move was the Five-Colored Peacock Treasure Technique, which he had prepared for a long time.

When the Golden Spider used most of its power to strangle the Bixie Treasure Technique, Shi Yi knew that his opportunity had come.

When the weak attack the strong, the worst thing to do is to engage in a protracted war. The best approach is to find the opponent's weakness, seize the right opportunity, and strike a fatal blow.

Shi Yi made his move; the divine light in his blood transformed into the shape of a five-colored peacock, almost becoming one with the Five-Colored Peacock Technique.

At this moment, he possessed the extreme speed of birds, and also the powerful energy of the Five-Colored Treasure Technique, making him like a five-colored arrow released from a bow.

In the blink of an eye, Shi Yi had already crossed several golden chains of divine order and arrived in front of the Golden Spider.

Throughout this process, the golden spider kept spewing golden beams of light to resist and obstruct, but it couldn't stop Shi Yi at all; his double pupils had already seen through everything.

Shi Yi merged with the Five-Colored Treasure Technique, charging forward relentlessly towards the weak point of the Golden Spider Dharma Form, where the runic power was weakest and would crumble upon impact.

"boom!"

The powerful Golden Spider Dharma Form was directly shattered by Shi Yi, and the Five-Colored Divine Light bloomed, suppressing all the golden radiance.

The golden spider, whose Dharma form had been defeated, was once again severely injured by Shi Yi. It flew back and crashed hard into a pillar, causing its internal organs to shift. It coughed up golden blood, which flowed continuously.

Having fought to this point, the outcome is already decided. If the fight continues, the Golden Spider will undoubtedly be defeated unless the Old Golden Spider intensifies its efforts and enhances its cultivation. As the master of the Primordial Divine Mountain and a Venerable One, the Old Golden Spider would naturally not do such a thing.

It acted directly, choosing to retrieve the little golden spider. With a flick of its spider leg, the little golden spider lying on the ground instantly transformed into a cluster of golden runes, flying back into the old golden spider's hand.

Then, the Lord of Demon Lake looked at the victor of the battle and remained silent for a long time.

Double pupils are truly unsolvable. From the perspective of a being of such advanced level, it is impossible to find any weakness in double pupils.

Ultimately, it could only think of three ways to fight against those with double pupils: first, to possess extreme speed, which could counteract the ability of double pupils to slow down movements; second, to possess absolute defensive power, which might not be able to kill those with double pupils, but would be more than enough to protect oneself; and third, to have overwhelming cultivation, for in the face of such an unparalleled advantage, no matter how heaven-defying your talent, you would still be unable to escape being suppressed and killed.

"Truly a godlike youth, a double-pupiled being, worthy of the title of an ancient sage." Suddenly, another voice came from the hall, it was the Azure Demon Black-Pupil Spider who had spoken with Shi Ziteng and his son earlier.

It is a powerful and respected being, and naturally has the right to enter and leave this place.

It had witnessed the entire battle just now and deeply understood the extraordinary power of double pupils, which could turn decay into magic and control everything.
