This amount of time was not enough for Shi Yi to escape the battlefield. His eyes showed horror, but he did not panic. Instead, he stopped on the spot and crawled into a dark crevice.
He rushed all the way to the bottom of the crevice, where it was damp and dark, with a dense network of small cracks.
Shi Yi casually slipped into a small crack, sat down cross-legged, blasted away the surrounding soil to block the path around him, and then used all his strength to use a secret technique to conceal his aura.
He had just finished all this when the place where the Sky-Devouring Sparrow had been in seclusion completely collapsed and ceased to exist. A sky-covering demonic bird flapped its wings and flew away, its demonic power overwhelming and enveloping the earth.
A pair of bright green eyes scanned the earth, and a vast divine sense reached out, searching every inch of land.
However, after scanning the entire battlefield, it found nothing, which the Sky-Devouring Sparrow found unbelievable and was furious.
Unwilling to give up, it scanned the battlefield again, but found no clues.
The Sky-Devouring Sparrow immediately decided to expand the search area.
In the distance, the spirit body of the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion sensed something was wrong and had already retreated outside the battlefield. When he discovered that the Beast Lord Demon Bird was expanding its search, he sighed helplessly and could only turn and leave.
If he stays any longer, he will face ruthless extermination.
"Roar!"
After expanding its search area, the Sky-Devouring Sparrow actually saw some clues. It spotted a village with a charred willow tree rooted in it. The village was peaceful and seemed unaffected by the battle between the Venerables months ago.
This doesn't match the Devouring Sparrow's impression. If it remembers correctly, the village that uses willow trees as sacrificial spirits should be within a radius of 100,000 li around the birthplace of the Mountain Treasure.
"So that's how it is. It was that willow tree that carried that village through the void, moving tens of thousands of miles."
After carefully sensing, the Sky-Devouring Sparrow narrowed its eyes. It was certain that the Fire Kingdom's sacrificial spirit had fallen into the space created by that willow tree that day.
"Hmph, the mountain treasure has most likely fallen into the hands of that willow tree." The Sky-Swallowing Sparrow snorted coldly, its huge eyes fixed on Stone Village.
Then, the Sky-Devouring Sparrow made its move. It didn't even care about a super-large tribe, devouring the lifeblood of millions of living beings in one gulp. A mere village was naturally no match for it.
Unfortunately, this time it misjudged the situation and ran into a brick wall.
Soon after, the Sky-Devouring Sparrow let out a mournful cry, leaving behind a trail of blood and black feathers, before fleeing into the distance.
Stone Village remains unchanged, with a single willow tree standing guard, protecting the village's peace.
Time passed, and a month after the birth of the Sky-Devouring Sparrow, in the Great Wilderness, beneath a crack, Shi Yi blasted through the surrounding soil and carefully emerged from the ground.
He didn't leave immediately, but observed for a few days. Only after confirming that it was safe did Shi Yi set off to leave.
Has the Sky-Devouring Sparrow really left? He couldn't be sure, so Shi Yi made no unnecessary movements, concealing his aura and stealthily moving through the Great Wilderness without looking back.
During this process, he was genuinely afraid that someone would suddenly ask him, "Kid, where do you think you're going?"
Fortunately, all of this was just Shi Yi's imagination and did not actually happen.
Only after completely leaving the Great Wilderness and approaching the border of the Stone Kingdom did Shi Yi feel relieved.
No matter how arrogant the Sky-Devouring Sparrow was, it wouldn't dare to openly approach the Stone Kingdom. The fact that it was able to come all the way here shows that the Sky-Devouring Sparrow wasn't following behind.
Chapter 91 Ancient Heavenly Power
Approaching the border of the Stone Kingdom, Shi Yi had no intention of entering it.
Although several years have passed since the incident at the Qilin Secret Realm, who knows if some revered mountain lord is patiently waiting for him.
Approaching the Martial King's Mansion or entering the Stone Kingdom at this moment would be extremely risky, and Shi Yi would naturally not take such a dangerous risk.
He glanced at the vast and boundless ancient human kingdom in the distance, then turned and left without looking back.
After trekking through mountains and rivers, Shi Yi arrived in a desolate wilderness.
He found a completely safe place, built a temporary cave dwelling, and then set up various magic arrays around the cave dwelling to ensure its safety.
In the cave dwelling left by an ancient powerful being, inside the scripture pavilion, Shi Yi obtained many ancient books about formations, which are now proving very useful.
Once everything was ready, Shi Yi took out a futon, sat cross-legged on it, and took out the greatest gain from his trip to the Cangmang Mountains—the mountain treasure.
This is a cube-shaped object made of bone material, with six sides, pure white and very smooth.
Its interior contains the legacy of the Supreme Hall, while the bone fragments are part of the Original True Understanding Transcendence Chapter.
Both the container and the contents inside were amazing treasures. Shi Yi's ability to intercept them from the Devouring Sparrow was a significant achievement.
Shi Yi already knew how to open it, so there was no need for him to study it further.
Without hesitation, he slightly spread his five fingers, various symbols flashed, radiating light, and a roar was heard. All six treasure techniques appeared and were used on the mountain treasure.
Instantly, the mountain treasure shone brightly, dazzlingly bright, and flowed with a rain of brilliant light.
The white bone block made a crisp click, and then it opened. One side was a lid, which automatically detached from the bone block amidst a shower of light, revealing the interior.
It is a hidden world inside; it looks small on the outside, but it is actually vast and boundless, like a vast night sky dotted with stars.
Among them were several old animal hides, stained with blood, long since dried, their age unknown.
Shi Yi was deeply shaken; these were the ones.
The Supreme Hall is the essence of the highest tradition.
The most precious of them all is the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Technique, an unparalleled heavenly technique with boundless power. It comes from the giant Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King of the Immortal Ancient Era and is even more terrifying than the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques.
It should be noted that in the original story, Shi Hao only obtained six starting techniques in the Primordial Ancient Mine and did not obtain the complete manual. He continued to develop it, which was equivalent to mastering a small part of the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Technique. Even so, he was still able to sweep across the world with this supreme ancient heavenly technique and fight against other ancient heavenly techniques.
Now, Shi Yi has obtained the Book of Six Paths of Reincarnation, which records the complete Ancient Heavenly Technique of Six Paths of Reincarnation, far superior to the incomplete starting moves.
Of course, the Ancient Heavenly Skill is precious, and one must have sufficient power to perform it.
Given Shi Yi's current cultivation level at the peak of the Cave Heaven Realm, he would probably be turned into a dried-up corpse as soon as he even got into a starting stance.
Such an unparalleled ancient technique that can control six precious arts at once can only be used by Shi Yi once he reaches a certain level of mastery.
However, Shi Yi could try to comprehend a small part of it, get a basic understanding, and use some rudiments of the Heavenly Technique in the early stages of cultivation. Even just a little bit of this technique would be enough to make him stand out in the world.
There was a certain risk in not immediately comprehending the Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique.
The most urgent task is to study the laws on other animal hides.
What about the True Hou clan, the Luan bird clan, the Bifang clan...?
The vast majority of them are the innate divine abilities of pure-blooded races, and these pure-blooded races are different from the pure-blooded races in the lower realm.
The fact that these treasures were collected by a powerful force in the upper realm, such as the Supreme Hall, as part of the foundation of a great sect, demonstrates their extraordinary nature, far surpassing that of the "pure-blooded" races of the lower realm.
The Purebloods of the Lower Realm are nothing more than descendants of beings at the Celestial God Realm who lord it over the barren lands of the Lower Realm and call themselves Purebloods.
The pure bloodline of the Upper Realm is different. The origin of each bloodline is extraordinary. If you trace it back, they are basically terrifying beings of the behemoth level.
In other words, the pure-blooded treasure techniques that Shi Yi obtained in the mountain treasure are far purer than those of the self-proclaimed pure-blooded creature races in the ancient divine mountain; it's like a grandfather beating his great-grandson.
Shi Yi calmed his mind, activated his double pupils, and devoted himself to comprehending the precious techniques passed down by these pure-blooded races.
Even if taken to the upper realm, these precious techniques would be invaluable treasures for the sect, and now they are fully presented before Shi Yi.
He was incredibly eager, and using the extraordinary ability of his double pupils, he grasped the essence of these precious techniques at an astonishing speed.
All magical arts are inseparable from innate magical symbols. As long as you understand the true meaning of those original symbols, you can thoroughly comprehend the magical arts. Generally speaking, the fewer symbols that make up a magical arts, the deeper your understanding of the magical arts.
Shi Yi did his best to comprehend the precious techniques on the animal skin one by one, transforming each one into a symbol and imprinting it in Shi Yi's heart. These symbols looked very complicated, containing the order of the Great Dao and the secrets of heaven and earth, yet they were also very simple, for the Great Dao is simple.
After he had mastered all the magical techniques to perfection, he finally turned his attention to the last, somewhat tattered animal hide.
On the surface, the tattered animal skin records the methods of the Suanni, but due to its great age, it has become blurry and indistinct.
In reality, beneath the Suanni Treasure Technique lies a peerless sword technique, namely the Grass Character Sword Technique, one of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques.
This precious technique is different from the Heavenly Skill; it is something that Shi Yi can comprehend, use, and rely on in actual combat, so he naturally wouldn't miss it.
He grabbed the animal skin, left the cave, and fled thousands of miles away until he reached a mountain stream, where he finally stopped.
Then, Shi Yi put down the animal hide, retreated far enough away, and probed the animal hide with his divine sense through the void.
In an instant, a terrifying pressure erupted, and silver sword energy burst forth, flattening the towering mountain and splitting the earth into dust. Even the stars in the sky were cleaved in two.
Shi Yi had already distanced himself from the area the instant he extended his divine sense, thus avoiding the impact of the silver sword energy.
He dared not delay and immediately rushed toward the silver metal pages that had revealed their true form.
The emergence of the Grass Character Sword Technique caused such a huge commotion that Shi Yi couldn't guarantee it wouldn't be sensed by a passing expert. If he were discovered, he would definitely be in deep trouble.
After grabbing the silver metal pages, Shi Yi fled into the distance, erasing all traces he had left behind.
He returned the way he came to his temporary cave dwelling, where layers upon layers of concealment arrays were in place, so it should be able to evade large-scale investigations by powerful outsiders without any problem.
Only now did Shi Yi have time to pay attention to the silver metal pages in his hand. They had long since lost their previous ferocity and had become very gentle.
The silver light flowed peacefully, as if a silver galaxy was wrapped around the surface of the book pages. At the same time, intricate bone script was adorned on it, like a series of dazzling stars.
This is one of the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques, one of the Three Supreme Sword Techniques, the Grass Character Sword Technique.
Legend has it that, when one cultivates to the highest level, one can sever the past and present and witness eternity!
During the Immortal Ancient Era, this supreme sword technique did not display its due brilliance. The Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, one of the Ten Fiends who inherited this sword technique, took root at the border and happened to encounter the four Immortal Kings crossing over to the other world. A great battle broke out. No one witnessed this battle; they only sensed the endless sword energy tearing through the starry sea and cleaving the universe.
Since then, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, one of the Ten Fiends, has never appeared again.
Its glory dates back to an even more ancient period, but unfortunately, no one in later generations has been able to understand its secrets.
Upon obtaining this treasure, Shi Yi couldn't help but smile. Previously, the Yin-Yang Sword, Five Elements Sword, and Heavenly Tribulation Sword he had used were merely imbued with his own understanding of the Great Dao, resulting in a hybrid that was neither fish nor fowl. The reason they were so powerful was because his strength was sufficient.
Now, this Grass Character Sword Technique is the true way of the sword, far surpassing his previous rudimentary skills.
Having mastered the Grass Character Sword Technique, Shi Yi's power in using Yin Yang, Five Elements, and other sword techniques will undoubtedly reach a new level.
With this in mind, he couldn't wait to begin comprehending the Grass Character Sword Technique.
Although Shi Yi's cultivation level wasn't very high, with the blessing of the double pupils, his speed of enlightenment was beyond imagination.
Before long, he grasped the essence of the Grass Sword Technique. Of course, a Ten Fierce Treasure Technique is not so easy to master.
Just like the Qilin Treasure Technique, Shi Yi also went through a lot of trials and tribulations before he finally succeeded.
He put down the silver metal pages, and silver bone script appeared in his eyes. The next moment, Shi Yi reached out and a silver sword grass was born, with nine leaves. Each leaf was shaped like a long sword. With a gentle turn, sword energy burst forth, capable of slaying gods and destroying Buddhas.
This sword energy is incredibly sharp and domineering, capable of breaking through anything; it is a trump card weapon.
Shi Yi spent several more days studying and comprehending the Ten Fierce Treasures Technique until he had a basic grasp of it before stopping.
At this time, a month had passed since he arrived here and established his cave dwelling.
Shi Yi did not intend to end his comprehension of the Dharma. He got up and left, then took out the Book of Six Paths of Reincarnation and tried to comprehend even a little bit of it.
Just a few of the opening moves were enough to deter him. To fully execute them, he would need far too much vital energy; even the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens wouldn't be enough to draw it all out.
To address this, Shi Yi devised a nerfed version, cutting off most of the starting moves and leaving only the basics.
The end result was that he could only barely control two of the treasure techniques, and their power was far inferior to the complete version.
Even so, it is more than enough for those in the Cave Heaven Realm. Its power is overwhelming, and it can be said to be able to kill gods and Buddhas if they are in the way.
At the same time, Shi Yi also began to grasp the basics of the six realms of reincarnation.
This is a terrifying path, with many interpretations. Birth, aging, sickness, and death, all aspects of human life, and all things are in the cycle of reincarnation.
Because this path is too profound and unfathomable, Shi Yi can only comprehend it to the initial stage at present, even with his amazing talent of double pupils.
In the eight lower realms, such an achievement is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
After Shi Yi finished his enlightenment, he suddenly opened his eyes, stood up from the cave, and quickly formed hand seals in front of his chest. Of the six starting postures, he only focused on demonstrating two of them, and even those were emasculated versions; the other four were emasculated even more severely.
"boom!"
Six large, misty holes appeared in front of Shi Yi. They were very illusory and hazy. Only two of them could remain stable, while the other four were faintly visible, as if they did not exist and could disappear at any moment.
A stripped-down version of the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art was thus unleashed by Shi Yi.
His face was slightly pale, and ten caves appeared, forming a divine ring that continuously supplied the essence of heaven and earth to Shi Yi's body. Even so, Shi Yi still felt as if he was being drained.
Then, the two magical techniques appeared in the two large holes that had been maintaining a stable state. Instantly, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the sun and moon lost their light.
Shi Yi unleashed a devastating attack, its power terrifying to the extreme.
The mountains shook and the earth trembled; the entire cave was reduced to dust by this attack.
Amidst the swirling rocks and collapsing clouds, Shi Yi's figure flew out and landed on the distant ground. His face was still somewhat pale, and it took him a long time to recover.
Even the abridged version of the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art was terrifying, almost draining all of Shi Yi's vital energy in one strike.
Currently, this kind of thing is only suitable as a secret technique to be kept at the bottom of the box, and is not suitable as a regular method because it consumes too much energy.
By this point, Shi Yi had almost fully digested the Supreme Hall within the Mountain Treasure, and had already mastered the Ancient Heavenly Skill, the Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques, and other things he had been longing for.
This greatly enhanced Shi Yi's combat effectiveness.
