“Elders, you have been here for a long time, why did you not show yourselves?” Shi Ziling suddenly spoke up.

This mansion was already shrouded in a hazy glow, the precious bones of an ancient remnant, which locked this world in place, preventing the sounds of battle and shouts from reaching the outside.

Four old men appeared, each in one of the four directions, sitting cross-legged on the palace, shrouded in mist and clouds, hazy and indistinct, like chaotic deities before the creation of the world, terrifying to the point of making one tremble.

They didn't take action, but they suppressed all sides.

"Before I even stepped into the manor and before I made a move, you locked down the heavens and earth. Now that things have come to this, why haven't you made a move yet?!" Shi Ziling asked.

His eyes were filled with anger. As soon as he returned to the manor, he sensed something strange and eerie. Before he could go berserk, the strongest member of the clan had already made arrangements.

"Ziling, put all this aside for now. Ten years from now, you will take over the Shi family." An elder said.

"Let me protect Yi'er, and then hand him over in twenty years?" Shi Ziling's voice was indifferent. He then turned to look at his wife and children. His youngest son was born with the supreme bone, but he had fallen to this state. Now everything else was meaningless.

“Ziling, you have already killed many people, it’s time to vent your anger. Stop now,” another patriarch said.

"Fine, return the Supreme Bone to my son!" Shi Ziling shouted.

The four patriarchs fell silent, sitting cross-legged, their bodies shrouded in mist, making them indistinct, like a chaotic blur. Yet, their elusive majesty and terrifying aura caused the heavens and earth to tremble.

"Shi Ziling, you've gone too far! Do you know who you're talking to? That's our clan's ancestor! Do you have any respect at all?!" an elder shouted.

"Get lost!" Shi Ziling roared. Even the clan elder had been defeated by him; how dare a mere collateral elder act so arrogantly? He thrust out his spear, unleashing countless rays of divine light and auspicious patterns, golden runes pressing down like a sea. With a "poof," the man instantly exploded, leaving behind a cloud of blood mist!
“Shi Ziling, the clan has treated you well. The ancestor has promised to let you take over the family in ten years. What else could you possibly be dissatisfied with?” an elder said in a deep voice.

“If someone were to kill your offspring with a sword, then try saying that again!” Shi Ziling said bluntly.

"There's no other way but to suppress you and banish you to the desolate wilderness!" someone shouted.

A magnificent old man emerged, mustered all his strength, and engaged in a fierce battle with Shi Ziling, determined to capture him. Instantly, the place was filled with divine light, the heavens and earth were illuminated, and it was enveloped in brilliant radiance.

However, the imposing old man was eventually sent flying, coughing up blood and nearly torn to pieces, suffering severe injuries.

All the experts in the clan arrived, and upon seeing this, they were all trembling with fear. Shi Ziling was truly too strong. It would be a real pity to release such a talent!

The elders were all moved, but some still made a move, with three of them stepping forward at once, simultaneously unleashing their magic attacks.

Instantly, the place was filled with deafening wind and thunder, divine light soaring into the sky, lightning like the sea, and overwhelming killing intent, transforming it into a land of destruction, with various holy lights dancing and supreme magical techniques running rampant.

"Shi Ziling, how dare you! Are you trying to betray your master and ancestors?" The elder, who favored Shi Yuan's lineage, shouted and strode out to join them.

"Ninth Grandfather, carry me on your back!" Suddenly, Shi Yi spoke up, asking the elder to take him into the battle.

“You…” Shi Li was surprised.

"I am a person with double pupils, and I can empower you with mysterious power, giving you divine assistance in battle!" Shi Yi whispered in his ear.

Shi Li carried him on his back, released runes to wrap him up, and the two were instantly connected. He felt a stinging pain in his eyes, and then he was able to see through the illusion. All the magic techniques and attacks slowed down in front of him.

Even as an elder of the clan with a noble status, he was still taken aback. This child was indeed extraordinary. How old was he? He already possessed such precious skills and supernatural powers.

With a "whoosh," Shi Li rushed into the battlefield and launched an attack. His eyes shone like the sun, able to see through many flaws, and he attacked with overwhelming force.

"chi"

A magical technique flew up, and dazzling runes gathered, transforming into a dragon blade with menacing scales and ferocious claws. It rushed straight past, its sharpness fully revealed, grazing the edge of Shi Ziling's hair and severing a strand of black hair. It was a very dangerous moment.

"careful!"

Shi Hao couldn't help but exclaim. Although he knew it was just a memory of the past, at this moment he wished he could be like Shi Yi and use his own strength to help his father and teach those bad people from the Martial King's Mansion a lesson!

"Good!" Shi Li was overjoyed at his successful attack. He secretly transmitted his voice, instructing the others to cooperate with him. With Shi Yi on their backs, they unleashed a powerful and unparalleled killing move.

Shi Yi's double pupils glowed as he lay on Elder Zong's back, coldly staring at the figure on the battlefield who resembled a golden war god. Despite his young age, his gaze was chilling.

The four elders fought fiercely against Shi Ziling, a battle that terrified the entire clan.

"buzz"

Suddenly, Shi Yi transmitted his voice, receiving the cooperation of Elder Zong, and absorbed his vast essence and spirit to nourish himself. His double pupils glowed, shooting out a cluster of runes that imprinted themselves in the void, densely packed, affecting all the precious techniques in the world and strongly interfering with Shi Ziling's attacks.

"So powerful!" many people exclaimed.

"This child is still young, but he is truly extraordinary!" Even an old ancestor sitting cross-legged in the mist in the distance suddenly opened his eyes.

boom!
A flash of blazing light, and the attacks of the four elders rained down like a storm, their magical techniques astonishing. Shi Ziling swayed, his magical technique interrupted, and he narrowly escaped death. His eyes instantly turned icy as he stared at his opponent.

"Protect Yi'er well!" an elder shouted, his heart filled with fear.

"With the four elders here, nothing will happen. I think Yi'er's broken bones were just a way for Ziling to vent his anger." Another elder said calmly.

Shi Ziling, carrying a battle spear, flew through the air like a flying god or demon. With a long roar, a huge ancient ferocious beast emerged from his body and attacked alongside him.

"call out!"

Shi Yi looked up, his eyes deep and unfathomable, filled with images of the sun and moon revolving and stars falling—a truly terrifying sight. Then, he unleashed two dazzling beams of light, composed of densely packed runes, which shot towards the sky.

He once again disrupted the heavens and earth, interfering with Shi Ziling's spellcasting, but this time it was useless. With a sweep of the golden spear, the heavens and earth resonated, and countless golden waves surged, suppressing all directions.

With a "poof," several elders coughed up blood and were swept away. Shi Li staggered after landing, coughing up blood with every step, and almost threw Shi Yi away. His body trembled violently and he almost fell over.

"Roar..." Beside Shi Ziling, the ancient ferocious beast also unleashed its power, shaking the heavens and the earth, its fierce aura spreading like the sea in all directions.

The four elders were shaken once again and coughed up blood.

"Fight again!"

The four rushed forward and attacked together.

The battle raged fiercely, their magical techniques soaring to the heavens, causing tremors in all directions. The light here was intense, and Shi Ziling, like a golden god, charged through the four masters' attacks, gaining the upper hand! The battle reached its climax, and all four elders were covered in blood, while Shi Ziling fought with increasing ferocity, his divine might overwhelming them, making them feel suffocated.

Suddenly, a terrifying wave emanated from Shi Li, as if an ancient god had been born, shaking the vast heavens and earth; his chest was glowing.

"Huh?" Shi Ziling was startled.

This was too sudden. This terrifying power suppressed everything, actually freezing the golden spear and obliterating the ancient ferocious beast beside Shi Ziling.

Shi Ziling's eyes flashed with divine light, like two golden lightning bolts shooting out, dispersing the terrifying fluctuations. The spear in his hand glowed again, surrounded by a large number of flying runes, intimidating all directions.

"boom!"

The golden spear thrust forward, piercing through heaven and earth. The chants of the gods resounded, so real and sacred, with radiance showering down. This was an offensive strategy!
Shi Li's attack was truly terrifying. He and Shi Yi seemed to have merged into one, his chest glowing, his body covered in complex patterns, flowing with the mysteries of the heavens.

The aura was terrifying, causing the other three elders to cough up blood and stagger backward, leaving them horrified. It was not meant to be directed at them, yet it had such an effect.

In the distance, the spectators were struck as if by a hammer, their bodies trembling violently, and they involuntarily staggered backward. Some of those closer even had blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, and their breaths nearly stopped. They couldn't help but want to worship.

"It's Hao'er's Supreme Bone!" Shi Ziling's eyes turned icy cold, and he was furious.

With Shi Li carrying Shi Yi on his back, the two of them joined together and forcefully activated the bone, unleashing such divine power that it shocked everyone around them.

However, with just this one strike, Shi Li's vital energy was completely devoured. Unable to withstand it, he coughed up blood continuously, his body trembled, and cracks appeared on his skin.

As for Shi Yi on his back, a cracking sound came from his chest. His bones, which had been put back in place, shattered again. He had suffered a severe injury and backlash. His Supreme Bone had not yet fully grown and should not be used in this way.

Shi Ziling's body was covered in golden light, burning fiercely and filling the sky. His power made the others tremble, yet he remained unharmed, surviving the attack of the precious bone and pressing forward.

"Boom!"

With each step he took, the heavens and earth trembled. He was like a god of death unleashed from his shackles, dispelling all peace and exuding a chilling killing intent as he swept his spear forward.

The three elders were sent flying, covered in blood, and fell into the crowd, never to rise again. It was impossible to tell how many bones they had broken, and even the runes they had been running into could no longer be formed.

As for Shi Li, he was met with an extremely powerful attack from Shi Ziling. The spearhead flashed, like a golden dragon flying from the sky, piercing through his protective treasure and bringing up a large amount of blood.

With a "poof," half of his body exploded. The intense pain made him tremble, and the runes were immediately obliterated, rendering them ineffective. His eyes were filled with terror.

Like an ancient god-king, Shi Ziling basked in the light, took a step forward, and pointed his golden spear forward, intending to pierce through Shi Li and Shi Yi together and nail them to the ground.

"Ziling, it's time to stop." Just then, the ancestor in the west moved. He was still sitting cross-legged, but he moved as fast as lightning. His whole body was shrouded in mist, and his figure was blurred. He stretched out a hand and blocked the terrifying spear, protecting the two people.

In fact, they have always been there. Ever since Shi Ziling and his wife stepped into the mansion, they have been active, sealing off the four directions.

When Shi Ziling first entered the clan, he sensed an eerie atmosphere and detected the presence of the four patriarchs. He had a premonition that something was wrong.

The four individuals possessed extremely profound cultivation levels, making it difficult to fathom their limits. With them around, it would be far too difficult to seek justice through force, given how many years they had cultivated.

"Ancestor, is this how you uphold justice?" Shi Ziling shouted.

"I know you feel wronged, and the clansmen have wronged Hao'er, but please believe me, we will definitely make it up to you," the patriarch said.

Just then, a misty haze spread, and the other three patriarchs also appeared there, trapping him in the center, all remaining silent.

"I refuse to accept this!" Shi Ziling roared, his entire body glowing, the golden spear in his hand pointing diagonally to the sky, runes erupting from his body, he used his strongest magic technique, ready to fight.

Everyone was deeply moved. To dare to challenge the ancestor was unprecedented in the clan for so many years. Shi Ziling's power was truly awe-inspiring!

“Ziling, you’ve gone too far. If you insist on fighting, don’t blame us for suppressing you!” an elder said.

"Then let's fight!" Shi Ziling brandished his spear, his body gleaming, runes intertwined, an ancient ferocious beast surged forth, his treasured technique astonishing the world, launching his strongest attack.

The sky seemed to be torn apart, a vast expanse of holy light so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it. Everyone trembled with fear and had to kneel down in the face of such divine might.

"Suppress!" the patriarch commanded.

The most terrible battle took place here, earth-shattering and awe-inspiring, making everyone's soul tremble with fear.

"I can't see..." In front of the big willow tree in Shicun, the little boy's face was covered in tears. He couldn't see the battle.

"Because you are too young to see that level of battle clearly." Willow Tree transmitted its voice, the chaotic energy permeating the air, making the place still blurry and hazy.

"I want to watch and find out the outcome." The little boy clenched his fists, even though he knew it had already happened, he was still very nervous.

The Stone Mansion was dazzlingly bright, with various holy lights dancing together, obscuring the sun and covering the entire mansion, making it impossible to see anything.

"With hearts in perfect harmony, we understand each other perfectly!" In the end, the little boy's mother joined the battle, carrying him as she charged into the battlefield. Together with Shi Ziling, they unleashed a powerful technique that shook the capital.

Unfortunately, the little one couldn't see anything. All he could see was light and magical arts, so dazzling that it made his heart tremble. The whole world was dyed a pale gold by the sacred radiance.

Finally, he must have been too weak, because he fell into a coma in his mother's arms. Before he closed his eyes, he saw his older brother outside the battlefield.

Although Shi Yi's bones were broken, his spirit and energy remained undiminished. His deep, double pupils stared at Shi Ziling with a chilling aura. Then he turned to look at the little one, a slight smile playing on his lips, his eyes gleaming with an arrogant brilliance. He only glanced at the little one before ignoring him.

Because the little one is on the verge of death, has lost his supreme bone, and his life is ruined, he is not worth paying much attention to.

Shi Hao glared angrily at Shi Yi, then touched his chest and said:
"So what if I have double pupils? So what if I have the Supreme Bone? The strong are still just people. I will prove that even without the Supreme Bone, I will be stronger than Shi Yi!"

For a long time afterward, the little one in my memory was always in a daze, hovering between life and death, so weak that he seemed to be on the verge of dying, and he was unaware of what was happening.

When he awoke again, he found himself in a desolate and barren land, far from the vast ancient kingdom and the bustling capital. The scenery was worlds apart.

They arrived at a large but very dilapidated manor, the place where the ancestor of the Shi family grew up, which can also be considered the second ancestral home.

"Ziling, you're truly remarkable!" An elderly man with white hair and beard slammed his fist on the old table, both excited and furious. "If I were fifty years younger and had your strength, I would have caused a ruckus in the capital too! Do you think our lineage is weak?!" (End of Chapter)
