The perfect world in the eyes of double pupils

Chapter 470 The Curtain Falls, The Imperial Crown

Lu Gu had no way to express his suffering. Shi Yi's Feather Transformation Fist was too powerful. He had never encountered such a fierce Immortal King opponent before.

Even in the extremely dangerous Boundary Sea, where Immortal Kings often perish, he had never encountered such a terrifying existence.

"what!"

Lu Gu roared as endless rays of light descended upon him, leaving him with no way to escape and riddling his body with countless wounds.

Another punch landed, and the veteran giant shattered on the spot.

"you……"

Lu Gu hurriedly repaired his physical body, staring in shock at Shi Yi who was charging towards him, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Shi Yi was determined to kill him, ignoring the giants attacking from all around and heading straight for him.

Lu Gu gritted his teeth, activated his giant Dao Fruit, and went to meet him. He firmly believed that Shi Yi was just putting on a brave face. As long as he held on a little longer, Shi Yi would reveal his true colors.

However, after a barrage of heavy blows, he exploded several times, and the Great Dao of Ascension eroded his giant Dao Fruit, a sense of weakness and death sweeping over his entire body.

This time, Lu Gu was truly frightened. If the fight continued like this, he would follow in the footsteps of that giant from the Boundary Sea.

Without hesitation, he turned and left, trying to escape.

"Old man, do you think you can get away with this?"

Shi Yi spoke coldly, and the next moment, the Chaos Axe descended, splitting Lu Gu in two with a single blow, severely damaging the giant's origin.

"what!"

Lu Gu screamed and struggled to recover. Before he could react, Shi Yi's fist came flying at him.

This ancient giant, once again revered as the Immortal Realm, exploded into a shower of blood.

Shi Yi gave him no chance to catch his breath, throwing punch after punch.

Under Shi Yi's relentless and fierce attacks, Lu Gu finally couldn't hold on any longer. After letting out a miserable scream of despair, he vanished into nothingness, becoming history forever.

Another powerful giant has perished, a terrifying scene that sends chills down the spines of the surviving giants.

Just then, on the edge of the dam, a series of imposing figures strode over. There were giants, supreme immortal kings, and many more. The figures were numerous and all carried an astonishing killing intent.

This is the arrival of reinforcements from the Immortal Realm and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Seeing the kings of the Boundary Sea besieging Shi Yi, they did not hesitate to rush over and break the siege.

Seeing that Shi Yi's reinforcements had arrived, the kings of the Boundary Sea sighed inwardly, knowing that the situation was hopeless. They were directly scattered and fled in all directions.

Instantly, Shi Yi's pressure lessened, freeing him to pursue these creatures and wreak havoc on the Boundary Sea.

In the time that followed, the Immortal Kings of the Boundary Sea who had made their move were all slaughtered like autumn leaves swept away by the wind.

When the great battle ended, countless immortal kings died, a sight that terrified the onlookers.

Shi Yi's ascension technique also ended, and he fell from his peak state, not much better off than Shi Hao.

"You two fight like madmen, showing no mercy whatsoever," Qinglian Immortal King and Jinzhu couldn't help but complain.

"With victory or defeat at stake, how can we hold back? This can be considered luring the snakes out of their holes, drawing out these people with ill intentions," Shi Hao replied.

He then continued, "Actually, even without support, we can still wipe them out. We still have a last resort: consuming the Emperor's Fall Pill will allow us to recover immediately."

"So that's how it is. You still have that kind of ancient pill." The two giants suddenly realized.

"Of course, I still want to thank you both. The Emperor's Fall Ancient Pill is one less pill available once it's eaten, so try to avoid eating it if possible," Shi Hao said.

Shi Yi also bowed and thanked the Celestial Kings who came to his aid.

Then, he informed the Immortal King of the Immortal Realm about the matter in Lugu of the Immortal Realm.

Upon hearing this, the Immortal Kings of the Immortal Realm all sighed. Lu Gu was courting death by daring to attack the Shuang Shi brothers.

"This is his own fault. To attack an ally is a betrayal." In the Immortal Realm, a giant named Qi Yu gave his final verdict.

Losing a giant would be a painful experience in any world, but Lu Gu's actions have truly caused the Immortal Realm to lose face.

They were also worried that Shuangshi might overthink things and create a rift between them and the Immortal Realm.

After returning to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, both Shi entered a state of recuperation.

The immortal kings from other realms were also watching this battle. After seeing the result, they beat their chests in frustration, marveling at how difficult it was to kill the two Shis. The two had already fought to such an extent, yet Shi Yi still had the strength to strike again and kill several giants. It was simply unbelievable.

Even the current Immortal King of the Otherworld and the Immortal King of the Boundary Sea tremble at the mere mention of the Twin Stones' names.

As for the quiet burial area, the fame of Shi Yi and Shi Hao is still spreading far and wide.

As time passed, fifty thousand years went by. On this day, in the Immortal Realm, a monstrous aura surged into the sky, shaking more than a dozen star fields.

A Celestial King from the Celestial Realm showed surprise. Was someone undergoing the Celestial King Tribulation?
Amidst the raging torrent of blood and qi, a celestial ant-like form stretched across the sky, its immense power shaking the entire world.

"It's a horned ant!"

"His primordial spirit is still lacking. He has entered the realm of the Ten Fiends, which is enough to rival his father in the past."

In the ancestral land of the Heavenly Horned Ants, Xiao Jin appeared. After countless years of cultivation, it finally transformed into one of the Ten Fiends, comparable to a Celestial King.

The only pity is that his primordial spirit was a bit lacking, and he couldn't overcome the primordial spirit tribulation and reach the goal in one step.

However, he had a feeling that if he accumulated some more time and honed his skills over the years, he would be almost there.

In another direction, in a celestial paradise, a World Tree takes root, its branches and leaves flourishing, flowing with a vast ocean of Dao rules. Beneath the World Tree, a majestic figure sits cross-legged, his entire body enveloped in chaotic energy, exuding a terrifying aura.

He was none other than the Ten-Crown King, who had once competed with Shi Yi for supremacy in the Immortal Ancient Flower Bud. Since arriving in the vast and resource-rich Immortal Realm, the Emperor had diligently cultivated himself, like a hermit, taking one step at a time to prove his Dao as the Supreme Being and advance into the True Immortal Realm... Now, he was a Quasi-Immortal King.

During the years when the Twin Stones shook the world, the Ten-Crown Emperor's talent was severely underestimated, and his brilliance was overshadowed by the Twin Stones; otherwise, he would have been one of the most dazzling beings.

The same applies to the banished immortal; he is also a quasi-immortal king, dressed in flowing white robes, and possessing boundless power.

The Nine-Lives Heavenly Lord was somewhat inferior, being merely a True Immortal.

In addition, True Dragon Ge Gu, White Qilin, and others are also quasi-immortal kings.

These prodigies who once shared the same era as Shi Yi and Shi Hao are all moving forward silently, honing themselves over the years, waiting for the day when they can shine.

During the Great Reckoning Era, those who were not at the Immortal King level were not qualified to participate in the war. They could only look up to the Twin Stones and watch them fight on the front lines, their might shaking the Boundary Sea and dominating all the heavens and myriad realms.

Across the nine heavens and ten earths, a young man with a face resembling Shi Yi stood on the earth, his eyes filled with vicissitudes and confusion.

"Why can't I reach the pinnacle of immortality?" He was none other than Shi Yi's son, Shi Jie. At this moment, he had already lived nine lifetimes in the mortal world and become a mortal immortal. The reason he was still stuck at this level and had not yet broken through to the Immortal King realm was because he wanted to follow in his father's footsteps and break through to the legendary pinnacle of immortality.

Once you step into this realm and break through to the Immortal King realm, the Dao Fruit you cultivate will be unimaginable.

His father and his uncle both entered the Immortal King realm with the Dao Foundation at the pinnacle of Immortal, and then rose to become giants, completely rising to prominence.

Shi Jie possessed the heart of a strongman, so he had always followed in the footsteps of his father. However, the ultimate level of immortality was far too difficult. No matter what he did, he could not break through the shackles and step into that mysterious and profound realm.

"What should I do?"

Shi Jie asked himself whether he should continue to strive for the pinnacle of immortality, or directly trigger the Immortal King Tribulation and prove himself as an Immortal King.
……

Inside the Chaos Ancient Cave, Shi Hao sat cross-legged. After fifty thousand years, he had fully recovered from his injuries. He had gained a lot from his battle with Shi Yi and learned a great deal from his elder brother.

Before he began to recover from his injuries, Shi Yi told him that his opportunity lay in the burial site, in the ancient artifacts that originated there. He kept this reminder in mind.

Now that his injuries have fully healed, Shi Hao got up and decided to go to the Burial Domain to see the Chaos Hall again, to get a closer look at the so-called Origin Artifact and the so-called opportunities inside it.

He moved, stepped out, and left the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, descending into the Burial Domain.

Instead of heading to the location of the ancient artifact, Shi Hao first went deep into the burial area to visit his old friend.

Soon, his arrival alarmed the Burial Kings, and several of them awoke, rose from their ancient coffins, and welcomed Shi Hao inside.

“Fellow Daoist, over the years, your and your brother’s reputation has grown stronger and stronger. Even in this desolate forbidden zone, your legend can be heard,” a Burial King said, his eyes filled with awe.

Shi Hao responded with a smile, saying that his and Shi Yi's reputations were earned through hard work, paved with the bones of immortal kings.

After speaking with several of the Burial Kings, the latter finally expressed their desire to form an alliance with the Immortal Realm and the Nine Heavens.

It seems that the Battle of Twin Stones fifty thousand years ago made the Burial Domain determined to tie itself to the two realms on the same chariot.

Shi Yi had already expressed his opinion on this matter, and now that the Burial Kings had taken the initiative to propose it, Shi Hao naturally agreed.

Now, as one of the two leaders of the Nine Heavens, he is naturally qualified to say such things, and they carry enough weight.

Before long, Shenming and Sanzang arrived. The old friends naturally had a long chat.

"Huh? This is..."

Suddenly, a large, glowing herb followed a King of Burial, set its sights on Shi Hao, and then came to his side.

Seeing this, one of the funeral kings breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, I apologize for the inconvenience, but this medicine has taken a liking to you and is likely to leave with you."

Shi Hao was no stranger to this herb; he had seen it before in the Eight Domains of the Lower Realm. At that time, it was known as the number one spiritual root in the Desolate Domain. When the beings of the Upper Realm were fighting over it in the Lower Realm, the creature that planted it took it back to the Upper Realm.

That was a forbidden zone of life called the Silent Peak, where Shi Yi had once made a deal.

At that time, the number one spiritual root in the desolate region stayed in the Silent Extinction Peak for a period of time before leaving on its own and disappearing. Because of this, the master of the Silent Extinction Peak even made a special deduction and told his younger disciples not to look for it, because the karma of this herb was too deep.

In the time that followed, the first spiritual root of the desolate region wandered the world, inscribing laws of all sizes. It moved to many different places and finally arrived at the burial area.

The burial kings were wary of the hidden karma behind this herb, so they could only accept it and dared not drive it away. It would only leave when it lost interest in the place.

Now, Shi Hao's arrival has shown this spiritual root a different path, so it has chosen to follow.

Shi Hao wasn't afraid of anything. He grabbed the herb in his hand and examined it carefully, which made the Burial Kings tremble with fear. However, upon closer inspection, Shi Hao was already a being standing at the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm. How could he possibly be afraid of selling fake medicine? It would be normal for him not to be afraid.

“The last time Fellow Daoist Shi Yi came, this medicine was not here; otherwise, it would have left long ago.”

"I want to see just how powerful the karma of this spiritual root is," Shi Hao murmured.

He then informed several of the funeral kings of the purpose of his trip.

"What? Fellow Daoist Huang wants to activate the Ancient Artifact of Origin?"

Several Burial Kings were terrified. They knew how terrifying that thing was. Every Burial King was extremely wary of the Origin Artifact and dared not approach it, because a Burial King had done so before, and as a result, his personality changed drastically, as if he had been given a different soul, which was terrifying.

"Yes, I've been exposed to the light of the ancient artifact, so I'm somewhat immune to it. There shouldn't be any major problems."

The several burial kings exchanged glances and nodded helplessly, saying, "Alright, fellow Daoist, please proceed, but please be careful."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao nodded slightly.

He was very familiar with the place and arrived at the Black Abyss. The ancient artifact of origin was in the Chaos Ancient Palace below the Black Abyss.

With Shi Hao's current strength, he was naturally fearless and soon arrived in front of the ancient artifact of origin.

The box, made of some unknown material, shimmered with a dazzling nine-colored light, making it incredibly mysterious.

He took out everything that might be a key, first touching the box with his body, and then bombarding it repeatedly.

Finally, the ancient artifact reacted. The box cracked open, like a fairy flower blooming, petal by petal, carrying a brilliant rain of light, as if it could burn away all the heavens and myriad worlds.

"what!"

Shi Hao cried out as he was struck by the nine kinds of light that burst forth after the box cracked open. Even someone as powerful as him, who had already reached the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm, could not withstand this power, and his head throbbed with pain.

In this world, there are very few who can rival him in terms of cultivation, yet they still cannot withstand his power.

The skull looked as if it had been cleaved by a giant axe, with the bones exposed.

Inside the box, there was a dazzling light, so intense that it was impossible to open one's eyes.

Shi Hao stumbled back several steps with a thud, forced his eyes open, and saw bright red blood flowing out. He finally saw what it was.

It was a ball of light, flowing with nine-colored rays, already liquefied, enveloping a snow-white object.

"The Imperial Crown?"

Shi Hao saw it clearly; it was an unimaginable imperial crown, something worn on the head. No wonder he felt as if his head had been split open.

Before he could react, the crown suddenly moved, flying towards his head and about to descend upon him.

A terrifying shockwave swept over, shaking Shi Hao so much that his head felt like it was about to crack open. He tried his best to resist, but the imperial crown still landed between his hair. Immediately, bone spurs grew out, trying to take root in Shi Hao's skull and flesh, it was unclear whether they wanted to absorb or merge with it.

"Go away!"

……

Across the nine heavens and ten earths, Shi Yi opened his eyes, his gaze gleaming brilliantly. Above his head, within the Forbidden Sea of ​​Bitterness, a small figure formed from his essence, energy, and spirit arrived before the eighth Dao Beacon, about to take a crucial step. (End of Chapter)
