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

With these things in hand, Shi Yi felt he could make further progress in the next ten months.

After bidding farewell to the two spiders, Shi Ziteng led Shi Yi back to the resting place. From now on, this palace would belong to Shi Yi, where he could live and cultivate.

"Yi'er, you should have already mastered the sacred techniques of the Martial King's Mansion, and the two patriarchs have also bestowed upon you the various supernatural powers of the Demon Spirit Lake."

"Your father has nothing to give you, but these precious techniques were obtained by chance when I was young, traveling through the Great Wilderness. Now, I pass them on to you, hoping they will be helpful on your future path." Shi Ziteng suddenly spoke, handing several bone books to Shi Yi.

"Back then, when I was traveling in the Great Wilderness, by chance I entered a cave left behind by a human elder and obtained many opportunities, among which these bone books were one."

Shi Yi did not refuse and took the bone book. He could feel the ancient and profound aura emanating from it.

"Thank you father."

Shi Ziteng waved his hand and said, "Why be so polite with me?"

As for the precious techniques of your maternal uncle's family, I have no right to pass them on to anyone. I once swore a solemn oath that even if you are my son, you cannot break that oath.

However, with your talent, if you just go to the Rain Clan, they will rush to give you their precious Rain Clan techniques.

Shi Yi nodded.

After saying that, Shi Ziteng gave Shi Yi a few more instructions, telling him the location of the Demon Spirit Lake Body Refinement Ground, and then left. He had his own things to do, and he couldn't teach Shi Yi anything by staying by his side.

After Shi Ziteng left, only Shi Yi remained, sitting alone in the vast hall.

Instead of immediately heading to the body-refining grounds at Demon Spirit Lake, he took out the ancient books about primordial runes and bone inscriptions given to him by the two Venerables, calmed his mind, and quietly studied them.

For a full two weeks, Shi Yi devoted himself to studying the Dao of runes and bone script. With the help of the double pupils and those ancient books related to the upper realm, his mastery of runes and bone script became increasingly profound and reached a new level.

The most important aspect of the Way of Double Pupils is the ability to deduce. One can often draw inferences from one instance to another, deduce from few to many, from simple to complex, and then from complex to simple, ultimately comprehending the true meaning of the Great Way.

Shi Yi put down the ancient book, his eyes shining brightly, with endless symbols emerging from them.

Chapter 29 Magical Technique

Each rune is filled with a primal aura, some derived from ancient texts and others from the deductions made by the double pupils.

They shone like endless stars in his double pupils, a manifestation of Shi Yi's Dao fruition in runes and bone inscriptions, the foundation upon which he continued to advance in the Blood Transformation Realm.

Having resources but lacking insight is not enough to cultivate oneself to a deeper level.

After a long while, Shi Yi closed his eyes, and those dazzling stars disappeared.

The next moment, a precious light shone from Shi Yi's body, and he looked solemn and dignified, like a young god sitting there.

Within his body, the divine light in his blood was glowing and changing; the results of his enlightenment over the past half month were about to be verified.

Shi Yi was not in a hurry, but calmly and quietly transformed himself like a gentle spring rain.

Another half month passed. At this moment, inside the main hall, countless blood radiances within Shi Yi's body were absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to nourish himself. These blood radiances would sometimes transform into lifelike divine furnaces, and sometimes into ancient bells with intricate Dao patterns... Each transformation would produce a thunderous rumble, deafeningly loud.

At the same time, an astonishing power of blood and qi overflowed from his body, lingering outside his skin and almost forming a divine halo of blood and qi.

This is a manifestation of the results of physical cultivation.

Advances in runes and bone script spurred the evolution of Blood God Dawn, accelerated its ability to refine the essence of heaven and earth, and enhanced Shi Yi's physical strength.

In just one month, Shi Yi underwent a new transformation.

When he finished this training, his body was covered with many impurities.

This was truly astonishing, as if he had undergone a complete transformation, and his physical strength had also increased.

Shi Yi got up, washed his body in the palace, changed into new robes, and sat down cross-legged again.

He took out the precious medicine and pills, ate some, and a flash of light appeared on his body before he quickly returned to calm.

Next, Shi Yi activated the precious techniques given to him by the two Demon Spirit Lake Venerables.

Among them are the precious techniques of the Golden Spider clan and the Golden-Winged Roc clan...

The Golden-Winged Roc Technique is a secret art passed down only from an ancient divine mountain, inhabited by the incredibly powerful Golden-Winged Roc clan.

During this blood pool baptism, Shi Yi may encounter pure-blooded beings of this race.

His eyes shone brightly as he scanned the ancient books that recorded the sacred mountain's magical techniques.

The ancient symbols and characters originally engraved on ancient books seemed to come alive in the eyes of the double pupils, becoming lively and leaping out of the ancient books, combining and arranging in the air to automatically form powerful secret techniques.

Soon, Shi Yi mastered all the precious techniques given to him by the Venerable of Demon Spirit Lake.

In the lower realm, these magical techniques are quite powerful and sufficient. However, if one wants to apply them to the upper realm, one must comprehend and develop deeper mysteries based on these techniques.

This is too early for Shi Yi at this stage. His double pupils haven't developed to that level yet. You have to understand that the power of the double pupils is directly linked to Shi Yi's cultivation level.

After learning the magic techniques of the Demon Spirit Lake, Shi Yi took out several bone books given to him by Shi Ziteng, placed them between his knees, and slowly opened them.

Inside the main hall, all was silent. No one disturbed Shi Yi's enlightenment and cultivation; only the crisp sound of bone fragments striking each other could be heard.

Opening the bone book, which was inscribed with many ancient characters, he explained to Shi Yi an extraordinary method.

He was very familiar with this method; it was the Daoist Soldier Transformation Technique that Shi Yi had used in the original work.

In fact, this technique is not difficult for true geniuses. Several conditions must be met. First, one must cultivate one's own Dao weapon, and then nurture a precious technique within it. When fighting an enemy, one must use the Dao weapon to contend with the enemy. The moment the Dao weapon shatters, the precious technique nurtured within will burst out, achieving a great kill.

This tactic is extremely sudden, and generally speaking, few people can anticipate it. After all, the instant after breaking through the Dao soldiers is the period of energy depletion. At this moment, the inner treasure technique is unleashed, and few people can react in time.

However, cultivating a Dao weapon is extremely difficult. It is not exclusive to low-level cultivators; even kings and marquises cannot master this method.

The bone book in front of Shi Yi teaches people how to master this secret technique at a low level.

In the short term, the Dao Soldier Transformation Technique has some use and can be considered a killing move. However, once one's cultivation level increases, this secret technique becomes rather useless.

Shi Yi memorized the contents of the bone book and then began to peruse another bone book.

The secret technique recorded in this bone book is a kind of human supernatural power—the Universe in the Sleeve, which is related to space. Legend has it that it was created by a human god in the past.

After a brief comprehension, Shi Yi realized that the "Sleeve Universe" technique in this bone book was incomplete. The true, flawless "Sleeve Universe" was an invincible spatial supernatural power.

Soon, Shi Yi memorized the secrets hidden in his sleeve. He put down the ancient book and opened the third volume.

"The Scorpion Technique".

Shi Yi whispered, "The Scorpion Technique recorded in this bone book is only a technique of the ancient species level, and it has not yet reached the level of pure-blooded beings."

For Shi Yi, this level of magical technique wasn't very useful, and the Scorpion Clan had never had any supreme experts in history. However, it was better than nothing.

He opened the fourth volume of the Bone Book, and as soon as he spread out the bone fragments, a wave of heat rushed towards him.

This surprised Shi Yi quite a bit.

"The Golden Crow Technique?"

With just one glance, he understood the secret techniques recorded in the bone book.

It is the famous Golden Crow Technique.

If it's the Golden Crow Treasure Technique from the Immortal Realm, then that's formidable. This clan is known as the Heavenly Favored Clan, with an endless line of Immortal Kings.

It is a powerful treasure technique from the Immortal King lineage, no weaker than the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques.

Unfortunately, this Golden Crow is not the same as the Golden Crow of the past; it is the Golden Crow of the Eight Regions of the Lower Realm.

Judging from the strength of the Golden Crow Technique recorded in this bone book, it is about the same as the techniques of pure-blooded beings.

Shi Yi used his double pupils to make a slight deduction and found that the Golden Crow Treasure Technique in front of him was incomplete and not that profound. If he used the ability of his double pupils, he would have a chance to restore some of it.

The previous Daoist Soldier Transformation Technique can be used to nurture the Golden Crow Treasure Technique, using the technique to nourish the technique.

After organizing all the precious techniques, Shi Yi got up and did not continue meditating. He stretched his limbs, and his bones made a terrifying cracking sound. After completing all the movements, he felt a sense of ease throughout his body.

Afterwards, he left the main hall to begin his physical cultivation, which is the most time-consuming and the sooner he starts, the better.

Currently, there are still nine months until the Blood Pool Baptism. Shi Yi estimates that he can make further progress through body tempering, after all, he has the foundation of rune and bone script cultivation.

Unbeknownst to him, the Demon Spirit Lake was already in an uproar over Shi Yi cutting in line and taking up a spot for the Blood Pool Baptism.

Chapter 30 Deterrence

As soon as Shi Yi stepped out of the main hall, he noticed that behind a stone pillar not far away, one spider turned and left quickly, while the other spider stayed behind, carefully observing him.

It was obvious that someone was watching him and immediately returned to report after seeing him leave the palace.

Remembering Old Golden Spider's earlier reminder, Shi Yi understood. If nothing unexpected happened, these two spiders must have been sent by the pure-blooded creature whose spot he had taken by cutting in line.

To be precise, the elder of that pure-blooded being should have tacitly agreed, after all, the blood pool baptism is very important, a rare opportunity for transformation, and who would be willing to let it be taken away by a human halfway through?

If the pure-blooded beings who lost their spots can prove they are stronger than Shi Yi, then they will have a chance to reclaim what belongs to them.

As for the elders personally suppressing Shi Yi, that's impossible. Shi Yi is highly valued by the old golden spider and the Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider, who regard him as the hope for resisting the great calamity of the desolate region in the future. If any spider bullies the weak, it will surely suffer extremely terrible punishment.

Therefore, Shi Yi didn't pay any attention and went straight to the body-refining area.

A month ago, he was able to lift 100,000 jin of divine iron with his pure physical strength. Now, after a period of training in bone inscriptions and runes, Shi Yi has made progress and has already surpassed his previous level. Even when competing with pure-blooded beings in terms of physical strength, he is not afraid and is confident that he can suppress them.

Soon, Shi Yi arrived at a plaza filled with heavy objects used for body tempering and various tools for honing the physical body. A magnificent waterfall cascaded down, its terrifying impact carving a visible dent into the giant rock beneath it.

At this moment, many spiders are tempering their bodies, honing their physical abilities. Most of them are young spiders, as only spiders of this age are suitable for this type of body tempering. This body tempering place was built specifically for spiders of this stage.

Upon seeing Shi Yi arrive, many spiders stopped what they were doing and looked at him.

The eyes of each young spider were not particularly friendly. All the spiders knew that this human was about to replace a pure-blooded little golden spider and go to the Qilin Ruins nine months later to undergo the blood pool baptism.

The saying "Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts" applies everywhere, especially in places like the Primordial Divine Mountain, where the creatures are arrogant and believe they are inherently superior to humans.

Therefore, even though Shi Yi possessed double pupils and extraordinary talent, deep down these spiders still longed for the pure-blooded little golden spider that had been squeezed out.

This is normal and within Shi Yi's expectations. It would be strange if these spiders were facing him.

However, Shi Yi didn't need anyone to side with him, nor did he care what these spiders thought. In the world of gods and demons, strength always comes first, and what is said with absolute strength is the truth.

If anyone disagrees, then beat them into submission. Let's settle things with our fists; it's simple and clear.

Facing a series of unfriendly gazes, he remained indifferent, meeting each one's gaze with his own, and the terrifying pressure of his double pupils spread out.

At that moment, every spiderling that met his gaze trembled violently, its very soul shaking.

There was no way around it; those eyes were too terrifying. With each opening and closing, runes flickered, chains of divine order moved, and in the shadows, a terrifying scene of the sun and moon being destroyed and the galaxy being reborn appeared, drawing people in involuntarily and making it impossible for them to extricate themselves.

There is also an indescribable pressure that acts directly on the soul, instilling fear from the depths of one's heart.

When these young spiders struggled with all their might to break free from this eye contact, they were already drenched in sweat, their legs trembling.

"How terrifying are those double pupils."

Each young spider opened its eyes wide, a thought escaping its lips: Is this the legendary double-pupiled being? Just looking into its eyes was almost unbearable for them; it was simply too terrifying.

Thinking back to how they had stared at a double-pupiled being with cold, hostile eyes, they felt a chill run down their spines. Fortunately, this was Demon Spirit Lake, where double-pupiled beings dared not act recklessly. If it were anywhere else, such hostility towards a powerful figure would probably have left them dead without a burial place by now.

After this profound lesson, none of the young spiders in the Body Refining Ground dared to disrespect Shi Yi or look at him with such disrespectful eyes.

Most of the spiderlings lowered their heads and gasped for breath. A few of them collapsed to the ground, their legs giving way. Others, however, abandoned their hostility and looked on with awe.

Seeing that the spiderlings' eyes had become clearer, Shi Yi was satisfied. He didn't care about other people's opinions, but that didn't mean the weak could disrespect him. The intimidation he had just inflicted was merely a slight punishment.

The old golden spider once said that anyone who disagrees will be beaten into submission; he has the right to intimidate those who disrespect him.

After doing all this, Shi Yi walked straight into the body-refining arena, took off his upper robe, and began body-refining.

He had just consumed some precious medicines and pills that could increase his qi and blood. Combined with a thorough body-training session, the effect would be excellent, helping him absorb the medicinal properties.

Shi Yi was completely focused, ignoring the spiderlings in the body-refining area, and continued to hone his physical body.

The spiderlings, their eyes now clear, cautiously observed Shi Yi. In their understanding, humans were inherently weak, even those with double pupils had weak physical bodies. Therefore, they were eager to see how Shi Yi refined his body.

At first, Shi Yi was in the warm-up phase, which the spiderlings could accept. However, when Shi Yi went all out and began to constantly challenge his own limits, all the spiderlings were stunned on the spot.

Ancient texts say that the weakness of humans with double pupils is their physical body, right? How come this human is completely different?

Not only did he lift a 60,000-jin (30,000 kg) cauldron with one hand, but he also held one in each hand, moving it up and down.

All the spiderlings were stunned, rubbing their eyes as if they were hallucinating.

With a single arm, he possesses the strength of 60,000 jin (30,000 kg). Is he even human? Even pure-blooded cubs aren't this monstrous.

People generally refer to the races in the ancient sacred mountain as ferocious beasts, but now it seems that Shi Yi, being a human, is the real ferocious beast, a humanoid ferocious beast.

"This……"

A young spider covered in golden spots, whose bloodline power was considered above average, was speechless, unsure of what to say.

In terms of physical strength, it originally had a sense of superiority, feeling that Shi Yi was no match for it, and that the only beings stronger than it could be pure-blooded creatures.

But now, it was dumbfounded. With Shi Yi's level of physical strength, let alone it, even a pure-blooded being would have to bow down and submit.
