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

Now, Shi Hao finally has the confidence to fight Shi Yi.

However, Shi Yi in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm was merely a Taiyin body of Shi Yi. If a single Taiyin body was already so heaven-defying, how heaven-defying would it be if Taiyin and Taiyang were to merge into one? Shi Hao dared not imagine.

That's why, even though he already possessed three strands of immortal energy, Shi Hao's heart was still heavy, with a sense of oppression lingering around him, coming from his peerless and terrifying cousin.

"No matter what, let's first cultivate the three strands of immortal energy to perfection." Shi Hao said softly, calming his mind and beginning to cultivate the immortal energy. He had obtained a part of the immortal corpse in the Burial Realm, and could use this to strengthen and perfect his immortal energy.

Outside, the turmoil surrounding the tribulation is intensifying. Now, everyone knows that by undergoing the most powerful tribulation and obtaining the Tribulation Liquid, one can resolve the curse on the ancient immortal race, win them over, and gain a significant advantage.

Among some of the top ancient immortal clans are terrifying beings at the level of sect leaders. Once they receive the help of a sect leader, they can do whatever they want before the ancient immortal secret realm cracks open.

Therefore, some confident ancient freaks are born to undergo tribulations, solely to overcome the most powerful tribulation and obtain the golden lightning tribulation liquid.

However, not everyone is a double stone. The great calamities that Chang Gongyan and Gu Jianyun, who are very famous ancient freaks in history, attracted were not the most powerful calamities. The lightning tribulation liquid they obtained was only purple lightning tribulation liquid with a faint golden light.

The remnant god approached Gu Jianyun with a smile, hoping to lick his hands off the lightning tribulation liquid, but it was completely useless, leaving him dumbfounded.

At the same moment, a terrifying aura erupted, which could be clearly sensed throughout the entire Immortal Ancient Secret Realm; it was vast and boundless.

Its origin is the Cloud Realm, where a magnificent and enormous palace slowly emerges, surrounded by pitch-black void rifts that continue to spread outwards, as if the end of the world is imminent.

Ancient reliefs, golden tiles, swirling clouds and mist, and auspicious colors—the entire Taoist palace is ancient and weathered, as if it has emerged from the long river of time.

A row of stone steps extends down from the Taoist palace, filled with the energy of the Great Dao. On both sides are tall stone pillars, majestic and towering.

Its name is Golden Dao Palace, also known as the Ancient Hall of Guidance. It has been shrouded in mystery since ancient times. Its appearance signifies that the final battle is about to begin. The arena where the rankings of the immortals will be determined often appears alongside Golden Dao Palace.

Sure enough, next to the Golden Palace, a magnificent building appeared, constructed from mysterious and ancient rock—an arena.

It is neither dazzling nor ethereal; it appears dull and plain, stained with dark red blood, marks left by weapons, and the mottled marks of time.

The moment it appeared, an overwhelming killing intent surged forth, striking straight to the soul, causing the Cloud Realm cultivators to tremble with fear, and even the remnant race creatures couldn't help but sigh.

Throughout history, the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm has been opened countless times, and this arena has witnessed countless decisive battles—a total of 2,999 battles, during which countless talented cultivators have perished.

If you were to ask where the most ancient monsters perished, this arena would undoubtedly be number one.

It has witnessed the rise of the ten-time champion and the fall of the seven-time champion. Generation after generation, geniuses have risen and fallen, but it remains eternally unchanged. This feeling is hard to describe.

Now, the arena has reappeared, and the 3,000th grand battle is about to begin. This battle will be more magnificent than any other, because in the past, no one has ever cultivated two or even three strands of immortal energy.

Amidst fierce competition and the clash of geniuses, in this most brilliant and glorious era, who will reign supreme, claim the title of Immortal, and enter the ultimate realm of creation?

Just thinking about it is incredibly exciting.

Cultivators from the Cloud Realm flocked to this place, eager to witness this battle destined to be recorded in history.

Some remember that when Ning Chuan was first born, he was incredibly handsome. He fought for months, defeated all his enemies, and became king for life.

Some also remember that the Ten-Crown King was the bravest among the immortals and invincible for ten lifetimes. In his most difficult lifetime, he encountered an Eight-Crown King who was born. Under the spotlight, he killed his opponent and stood proudly throughout history.

Some even remember that Chang Gongyan's single arrow sealed the fate of the world, shattering all enemies from all directions...

The mighty Yangtze River flows eastward, its waves sweeping away countless heroes of the past; every era has its own epic battles that ignite the passion of warriors.

In this era, ancient kings gather together, while the kings of this era rise to power. As these powerful forces collide, they are bound to create brilliant sparks.

People eagerly anticipate the spectacle of those unparalleled geniuses battling it out on this arena.

"The Double Pupil, Huang, the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, the Six-Crown King Ning Chuan, Chang Gong Yan, Gu Jian Yun... There are so many unparalleled geniuses in this era. I really hope they can appear on the arena and show their invincible style."

"Yes, these creatures are all chosen ones of heaven, they won't die so easily."

……

Not only are cultivators outside looking forward to it, but even the beings of the ancient immortal races are paying attention. This kind of competition among geniuses is something that can only be encountered once in a lifetime.

"The arena has basically emerged, but it should be a few more days before it is fully revealed to the world."

"I'm really looking forward to it. Who will be the only one, the invincible young supreme being in heaven and earth? Everything will be decided in this battle."

……

People spoke, their voices filled with excitement.

At the same moment, fluctuations of the heavenly tribulation appeared one after another.

A massive bolt of lightning shook the heavens and earth, awe-inspiring all who witnessed it. Above the Nest Realm and the Ten Fiends' Nest, the blood moon trembled, and a crimson sun blazed across the sky. The extraordinary phenomenon was astonishing, with blazing lightning stretching across the entire area, enveloping the Fiend Nest.

Without a doubt, this is a banished immortal undergoing tribulation, attempting to leap into the realm of true gods while simultaneously trying to cultivate a third strand of immortal energy.

On the other side, in an ancient ruin, lightning flashed, hundreds of thousands of bolts of lightning converging into a sea of ​​thunder, capable of destroying the heavens and the earth.

People were shocked because it was a cursed place that the ancient immortals were wary of and dared not approach. They never expected that someone would be undergoing tribulation there.

Then, a figure in white appeared, carrying the Heavenly Map on his back, and rushed into it.

"That's... Ning Chuan, the six-time champion."

Even in the terrifying Sea of ​​Death, there is a raging tribulation of lightning. People are certain that it is the most powerful tribulation, not the one like that of Lone Sword Cloud.

"Heavens! The Sea of ​​Death, such a desolate place, who would dare to summon heavenly lightning here?"

"It's... the ten-time champion!"

Someone saw a figure, striding with the power of a dragon and the gait of a tiger, holding a small immortal tree, sweeping across all directions with boundless domineering aura.

On this day, the ancient immortal realm trembled, as three beings who had cultivated two strands of immortal energy chose to undergo tribulation and break through their barriers, a truly awe-inspiring event.

Whether it's the haunted nest, the ancient ruins, or the Sea of ​​Death, they are all forbidden zones where more than one celestial being has perished. Ordinary people who step into them will die, let alone undergo tribulation within them. It must be said that these three beings are extraordinary and far from being ordinary people.

Soon after, news spread that someone had witnessed the banished immortal being struck by a massive bolt of lightning above the haunted nest, and dying instantly.

Some people also claimed to have seen Ning Chuan covered in blood, his celestial map shattered, and him fall under the heavenly tribulation.

"Even the ten-time champion could not escape. The waves of the Sea of ​​Death crashed against the sky, and thunder destroyed the world. It struck his brow, and he fell into the vast ocean." So said a heroic spirit dwelling in the Sea of ​​Death.

Everyone was shocked. Had the three most brilliant geniuses in history been wiped out in a single day?

Some people didn't believe it, thinking that they wouldn't have perished so easily and must still be alive.

"In comparison, the Shuangshi brothers are truly extraordinary. They are cousins ​​and both are prodigies of this era. They lacked the accumulation of experience over time, yet they soared to great heights and became the world's most powerful figures. It's truly unimaginable."

"Whether the three have perished or not will be known in a few days. The arena is gradually solidifying and will soon be fully revealed. If the Ten-Crown King and the others are still alive, they will certainly not miss this grand event."

……

In a hidden microcosm, Shi Yi suddenly opened his eyes. His body was shrouded in immortal mist, his flesh and blood were crystal clear, and he exuded the aura of the Great Dao, merging with heaven and earth. He became much more reserved, which was a manifestation of his great progress in cultivation.

After a period of secluded cultivation, he has raised his cultivation level to the late stage of True God and is about to enter the Perfection of True God.

This speed is undeniably fast. Keep in mind that Shi Yi only recently advanced to the True God realm, and he's already close to the Great Perfection. Such speed is astonishing.

Moreover, his cultivation was incredibly solid, without the slightest hint of superficiality; every step he took was steady and methodical, following the strongest path.

"The arena is about to appear, it's time for me to emerge from seclusion," Shi Yi muttered to himself.

The golden palace and the arena appeared together, and the resulting fluctuations were incredibly powerful, which he could naturally sense.

Shi Yi got up and moved his limbs a little.

At this moment, he was already a powerful expert in the late stage of True God, a small step above the other top-tier geniuses. Don't underestimate this small step; it was enough for Shi Yi to establish an unbreakable advantage and stand in an invincible position.

"Is it finally coming? The battle of the geniuses, the clash of dragons and tigers!" Shi Yi murmured, his voice filled with barely concealed excitement.

After waiting for so long in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, this day has finally come.

In this lifetime, besides him, there are four other people who possess three strands of immortal energy, so Shi Yi can fight to his heart's content.

Chapter 270 Twin Stones

In the Cloud Realm, the Golden Palace stands majestically, exuding an ancient and weathered aura. It has another name—the Ancient Hall of Reception—but no one has ever known what it is receiving.

People paid more attention to the arena next to the Golden Dao Palace, because that was the battlefield of the Great Battle of Immortals.

At this moment, the place was already bustling with people. A large number of powerful individuals gathered from all directions. Some planned to participate in the battle, some thought they would act according to circumstances, and some simply wanted to watch the battle and witness the most brilliant clash of geniuses in the history of the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm.

Amidst the anticipation of the crowd, the blood-stained arena gradually solidified, and the lines around it slowly materialized. Once the illusion completely faded, the final battle would begin.

Before that moment even arrived, some people couldn't wait any longer and rushed to the arena, thinking they could take advantage of the fact that the young supreme beings hadn't arrived yet and win a winning streak.

In this way, even if one cannot obtain the ultimate fortune of the Immortal Ancient Era and cannot compete with the top tier of people, one can still make a name for oneself in the Three Thousand Dao States and leave a mark on history.

Many people hold this view, and they are mostly the first generation who have some strength and have ruled over several states.

Unfortunately, the arena has not yet truly appeared, so it is impossible to climb up. Any creature that tries to enter the arena is pushed back by a force.

They immediately shook their heads in disappointment.

If we don't do something now, we'll just have to be spectators when those ancient oddballs arrive.

According to the rules of the Immortal Ancient Arena, anyone who steps onto the arena must win one hundred consecutive matches before they can leave to rest, which is incredibly cruel.

At this time, the beings who come to the arena are not yet very powerful. Before long, the powerful will appear. At that time, even someone as strong as the first generation will not dare to be arrogant and will take the lead in going up to the arena.

Sure enough, when the arena finally materialized and the exciting final battle began, the huge arena was completely silent. Those who had been vying to go up to the arena fell silent, and no one dared to be the first to step onto the stage.

They scanned the crowd and saw a terrifying enemy. None of them had the confidence to win a hundred consecutive matches, and the situation became deadlocked for a time.

"Who wants to go first?" someone asked.

"Everyone who comes here is an elite of their clan. Who is much worse than whom? Winning a hundred consecutive matches is too difficult. I don't even have enough energy to sustain myself."

There is a gap between geniuses; some are as brilliant as the sun, moon, and stars, while others are as dull and lifeless as grains of sand.

Those strongest first-generation players, those ancient prodigies, which one couldn't achieve a hundred consecutive victories? It's incredibly easy for them, provided no formidable opponent appears. After such fierce battles, they're bound to be injured, their form will decline, and they'll be vulnerable to being picked off.

"Since none of you dare to go up, then I'll give it a try first." Suddenly, a voice rang out, it was the first generation of the Cerberus clan.

It let out a cry, then stepped onto the arena and landed slowly. Compared to the vast arena, its body appeared very small, like a drifting leaf.

"Finally someone's going up? It's a first-generation fighter, who's going to challenge him?"

Amidst the commotion, someone suddenly exclaimed, startling everyone.

"The Wilderness... has arrived."

People made way for Shi Hao as he arrived and approached the arena.

He was not in a good condition; he was pale and weak, and his skin was dull and lifeless, as if he had suffered some serious injury, or as if he had gone mad while cultivating.

However, no one dared to underestimate him. The three strands of immortal energy surrounding his body demonstrated his status and majesty as a young supreme being, and no one dared to step forward to provoke him.

Shi Hao scanned his surroundings and saw nothing but awe in everyone's eyes. He was not surprised by this, after all, he was the second person in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm to cultivate three strands of immortal energy. In the vast world, only Shi Yi could surpass him.

"Huang, possessing three strands of immortal energy, has an incredibly formidable record. With the Ten-Crown King, the Immortal, and Ning Chuan all missing during their tribulations, perhaps only the Double-Pupiled Shi Yi can rival him." People sighed, feeling that this arena would belong to Huang and Shi Yi.

Of course, Shi Yi has not yet arrived, so it may be Shi Hao's show from now on.

Just then, an even louder exclamation rang out, and the crowd erupted in cheers. Many people looked excited and thrilled, gazing in one direction.

There, a figure was walking slowly, with thick black hair, cold battle clothes, and a heroic and imposing figure. With each step, a purple pattern was left in the void on the ground, and the roar of the purple unicorn could be faintly heard.

This figure was none other than Shi Yi, the one known as "the number one person in the ancient immortal era," who single-handedly killed two celestial gods with double pupils.

He was surrounded by three streams of immortal energy, and his Yin-type double pupils shone brightly, deep and cold, like a demonic well that devoured people's hearts, making them want to rush into it like moths to a flame.

Wherever his gaze fell, the cultivators all lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes. Some were too arrogant and looked directly into Shi Yi's eyes, but they couldn't bear it and instantly coughed up blood, staggered back more than ten steps, and collapsed to the ground.

Many people were seeing Shi Yi for the first time and were all impressed by his aura and power. Of course, many people had seen him before, and some belonged to the original Tongmen. Even though the Tongmen had disintegrated, they still regarded Shi Yi as the sect leader.

"The one with double pupils—Shi Yi."

Someone uttered Shi Yi's title, and all the cultivators from all directions held their breath, watching Shi Yi's arrival with bated breath.

Huang arrived first, followed closely by Shi Yi. The two individuals, each possessing three strands of immortal energy, clashed so quickly. Would they go straight to the stage for a final showdown? People were eagerly anticipating this, wanting to see how these two unparalleled talents would fare.

At this moment, Shi Hao also noticed this formidable enemy, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

If he were at his peak, he would not be afraid of Shi Yi and could fight him. But now, he is cultivating the Willow God's method and experiencing the way of annihilation and vitality. Currently, he is in a state of entering annihilation. Whether it is his primordial spirit power, blood and qi, or magic power, they are far from their peak state.

Under such circumstances, encountering a formidable enemy like Shi Yi, defeat was a foregone conclusion, without the slightest surprise.

It should be noted that even in his prime, Shi Hao wouldn't dare claim victory against Shi Yi, let alone now that he's in a weakened state.

He sighed inwardly. It seemed that his plan to arrive first, launch a winning streak, and see if he could win the championship directly had been shattered.

With Shi Yi at full strength, Shi Hao could only avoid his sharp edge. Only when Shi Hao's condition turned to one of bursting vitality and vigorous life force could he challenge Shi Yi.

Shi Yi remained calm, his eyes gleaming with indifference. He met Shi Hao's gaze from a distance. Shi Yi already knew the reason for Shi Hao's state. At this stage, unless Shi Hao had gone mad, he would never fight him.

The other opponents who pose a threat to Shi Yi have not yet arrived, which means that the next round of the arena will belong to him alone.

Shi Yi knew far more about the ultimate creation of the Immortal Ancient Era than anyone else.

To win in the battle of heroes, it's best to have a super winning streak before the battle of the young supreme.
