……
The Prince Wu's mansion was quiet, devoid of its former hustle and bustle, and looked desolate.
Inside the royal palace, the matter of Shi Yi could no longer be kept secret and had already spread. A peerless genius with a limitless future, destined to rule the desolate region, a born god, had just disappeared without a trace. Many elders of the royal palace fainted on the spot. Even the Martial King, who had not emerged from seclusion for a long time, was alarmed and personally came out to inquire.
Because of their internal strife, they lost a born supreme being, and now they have lost another born god. They have played a winning hand terribly, and they can't help but lament whenever they think about it.
"Retribution, this is absolutely retribution. Violating the ancestral teachings of the Stone Clan has finally brought divine punishment upon us," someone lamented.
"If Yi'er were still alive, he would already be famous throughout the desolate region by now," a white-haired elder sighed. He looked extremely old, and his eyes were filled with worry.
Even the elders who were close to Shi Hao's lineage were not happy. After all, after Shi Yi's accident, the Martial King's Mansion had visibly declined. Although the Martial King was still alive, the spirit of the clansmen had deteriorated.
Shi Yi was unaware of these things, and even if he had, he would not have shown up to boost the morale of the Wu King's Mansion.
This is a matter of life and death; how can we be careless or negligent?
Heaven knows if some incredibly persevering Venerable of the Divine Mountain is still staking out the Martial King's Mansion, waiting for Shi Yi to show up.
For the legendary Ten Fierce Treasures Technique, waiting five or six years is nothing, and waiting for decades is not too long.
In the Void God Realm, in the area where the Spirit Transformation Realm is located, in a treasure land with astonishing spiritual power, Shi Yi's cultivation has reached its most crucial moment.
He had cultivated his spiritual energy in the grotto-heaven, and was just one step away from crossing the insurmountable barrier, where he would be free to roam the world.
At this moment, Shi Yi was already in a frenzy, and the entire spiritual treasure land was trembling violently, turning into a vast ocean of waves that swept towards the star ring composed of the ten grotto heavens. At the same time, above the star ring, the forbidden sea of suffering was turbulent and the sound of waves came from it. Forbidden power fell down and covered the ten spiritual bodies standing on the star ring.
That wasn't enough. Shi Yi then unleashed a deluge of resources, his divine power spreading outwards and enveloping him.
Countless symbols swirled around the starry halo, permeating the area surrounding the ten spiritual bodies.
Multiple forces converged and launched an attack on the extreme constraints.
"boom!"
A tremendous roar resounded across the sky, and the starry halo was so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.
Finally, the shackles were broken, and Shi Yi, like a dragon entering the sea, plunged into a completely new realm.
With one burst of energy, he mobilized everything and charged towards an even higher peak in the extreme realm of the cave for nurturing the spirit.
When everything calmed down, Shi Yi's cultivation of spiritual energy in his cave reached its peak.
The light on the Starry Divine Ring dimmed, revealing ten lifelike, majestic, and domineering figures standing atop it.
Purple Qilin, Silver Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, Five-Colored True Phoenix, Golden-Winged Roc, Purple-Gold True Hou, Golden Crow, Suanni, Peacock, Taotie, Chaos.
The ten ferocious beasts have lively eyes, as if they were real living beings with life, no longer just symbols, dull and lifeless as before.
Within their bodies, life imprints are condensed, making them, in a sense, real living beings, except that they are all Shi Yi's spiritual bodies.
The ten spiritual bodies possessed astonishing auras, their bodies shrouded in starlight, nourished by ten enormous stars. They also represented Shi Yi's combat prowess.
At this moment, he had cultivated to the legendary level in all three stages of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and had even surpassed the limits, standing at an incredible peak.
At this point, Shi Yi was fearless against any enemy in the Void God Realm and could sweep away all enemies in the Spirit Transformation Realm.
However, his spiritual practice did not end.
He has more than ten grotto-heavens, and there is also a physical grotto-heaven.
The cultivation of the spirit in the Ten Grotto-Heavens has come to an end; the next step is to cultivate the spirit in the Physical Body Grotto-Heavens.
Originally, the physical body had already become a spirit, and the spirit had been reshaped, but the potential had not been fully unleashed.
Shi Yi exhaled softly, drawing upon the Ten Heavenly Caves, the Forbidden Sea of Bitterness above them, the spiritual treasures of the outside world, and numerous other resources to nourish his physical body.
In an instant, his body was engulfed by endless radiance, and the potential that had not been unlocked when his physical body became a spirit was unleashed at this moment, with an astonishing spirituality erupting within his body.
"boom!"
As if a door to a new world had been opened, Shi Yi stepped into this new world.
Within his body, the blood glowed with divine light, hazy yet radiant, emanating from the chants of the gods and the eternal sacrificial chants, mysterious and eerie.
During this process, Shi Yi's physical body underwent an astonishing transformation, reaching a new level and surpassing the limits of this field.
When everything was over, a month had passed. The cultivation of the spirit in the physical body cave was complete and the task was accomplished. This time, the spirit he cultivated was not some ancient beast symbolized by a magical technique, but Shi Yi himself. He was certain that he had broken through to a level that even geniuses would look up to.
"It's not over yet," he muttered to himself, his eyes darting around.
The Spirit Transformation Realm requires not only the infusion of spirituality into the body, but also the transformation of all spirits into countless forms.
Throughout the three stages of cultivation, Shi Yi observed and witnessed the evolution of the process using his double pupils.
"Buzz!"
Shi Yi immersed himself in cultivation once again. This time, he wanted to draw upon the divine light of his blood to transform all living beings and develop the Great Dao.
Of course, with his current level of expertise, he is not yet able to transform all living beings; these are all things and paths that Shi Yi is familiar with.
Sword, bell, cauldron, spear... Qilin, phoenix, sword grass...
He had done this before when he was moving blood, but his cultivation was limited at that time, and the things he created were more similar in form than in spirit.
Now, standing at the Spirit Transformation Realm, everything is different. With both form and spirit complete, and having even evolved corresponding Great Dao rules, its power has increased many times over.
"Buzz!"
Shi Yi transformed into a divine sword, his entire body surging with sword energy, causing the void to tremble, and an entire mountain was instantly riddled with holes.
He then transformed into an ancient bell, its melodious chimes causing people to become disoriented, while simultaneously possessing astonishing defensive capabilities.
……
The various wondrous changes that Shi Yi brought to life were no less than a profound enlightenment.
Ultimately, Shi Yi's double pupils also underwent an astonishing change. The surge in his cultivation had already greatly increased the power of his double pupils, and now, his comprehension of the essence of spiritual transformation had allowed his double pupils to develop new abilities.
From the depths of his pupils, divine light burst forth, its power terrifying, capable of easily destroying magical artifacts and slaying enemies across the void.
What's most terrifying is that two divine weapons are brewing deep within Shi Yi's eyes. In terms of form, they are two spears, sharp and captivating. Even if they are not activated, they can still reflect the mind of the enemy through their gaze.
"Qiang!"
The sound of metal clashing erupted, and two beams of golden divine light shot out from Shi Yi's double pupils. The divine weapon was born, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, the sun and moon lost their light, and the two mountains instantly turned into nothingness. If they were enemies, they would probably have been nailed to the void by the divine spear at this moment.
Shi Yi withdrew his supernatural powers, his eyes calmed down, and he walked out of the spiritual treasure land.
During the final stage of his cultivation, he almost drained this treasure land dry. However, since it was evolved from the Void God Realm, it was impossible for it to be drained.
Including the month he spent nurturing his spirit in his physical body, he spent a full three months cultivating to his current level, the Spirit Transformation Realm. He has reached the pinnacle, standing atop the highest peak, overlooking all his enemies.
At this time, Shi Yi was eleven years and nine months old. Every step he took was the strongest path, reaching the strongest point allowed by the current environment. However, this did not affect his cultivation speed at all. At this age, he reached the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm. If this were to spread, the entire Lower Realm would be shocked.
"It's time to go to the Ancient Holy Academy."
Shi Yi muttered to himself, and without hesitation, left the Realm of the Void. He had stayed in the Realm of the Void long enough, and for a long time to come, Shi Yi would be spending his time in the real world.
At the very moment he departed, in the Great Wilderness, outside the realm of the Void Gods, a willow branch pierced through numerous obstacles, carrying a gifted youth closer to the Void Gods, guiding him toward the Land of Origin.
Chapter 100 Ancient Holy Court
As history rolls ever onward, the chosen one, the one born to face calamity, the young Desolate Emperor Shi Hao, arrives in the Realm of the Void Gods for the first time with the help of the Willow God.
He descended upon the Land of Beginnings, pried off the precious bone from the passage to the Land of Beginnings, broke a very remote record, received a reward from the Realm of the Void Gods, and left behind the classic title of "most fond of eating beast milk".
Meanwhile, the creatures of the ancient families, who had been severely suppressed and plundered by Shi Yi, set their sights on this harmless brat. The gears of fate began to turn, and the major ancient families ultimately could not escape a second round of torment and blows.
The two guardians of the Void God Realm were given the titles "Bird Lord" and "Jingbi Grandfather".
Shi Hao also heard the name "Xuan Yi" for the first time in the initial land. It was a name that was as bright as the sun and shook the desolate region. He learned about the deeds of this supreme genius who was as dazzling as an emperor star. In an instant, he was amazed and a seed of strength was planted in his heart. He wanted to catch up with this brilliant genius.
This was also the purpose of Willow God bringing him to the Realm of the Void Gods. She feared that he was too isolated in the Great Wilderness and would hardly have the opportunity to meet true geniuses, let alone engage in a life-or-death battle with the cubs of pure-blooded beings that would serve as a warning to the world.
In Shi Hao's expectations, he would encounter many pure-blooded beings here and engage in battles with them. Unexpectedly, the pure-blooded beings were not even considered the strongest, and were overshadowed by the name "Xuan Yi".
He also inquired about the double-pupiled Shi Yi, but the reply he received was that he had heard a long time ago that a double-pupiled person had emerged from the Martial King's Mansion of the Stone Kingdom. However, after so many years, there had been no news of the double-pupiled person, and no combat records had been reported. All that was known was that the Martial King's Mansion had been in decline and its prestige had waned since several years ago.
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao frowned slightly.
He couldn't understand how his godlike older brother, who possessed the heaven-defying talent of double pupils and was known as a "born god" and an "ancient sage," and who had also obtained his supreme bone, could possibly be unknown and just another ordinary person with such a powerful combination of abilities.
"Could it be... something happened? Otherwise, the Martial King's Mansion wouldn't have declined for no reason," Shi Hao muttered to himself.
Thinking about all this, he felt a strange sense of loss. He had wanted to motivate himself with all the glory that Shi Yi had achieved, but he never expected to hear such news.
However, he quickly adjusted his mindset and turned his gaze to the most dazzling young creature in the desolate region.
Despite his young age, Shi Hao had already developed a strong will and unwavering determination. He wanted to protect his family and relatives in Shi Village, as well as his parents and grandfather. He also wanted to surpass Shi Yi, prove that even without the Supreme Bone, he was no less than anyone else. This was also due to the strong will that Liu Shen had instilled in him from a young age.
"Sooner or later, I will catch up with him and fight him." Shi Hao's words were astonishing, leaving the creatures present looking at each other in disbelief.
Then everyone burst into laughter. They all thought the child was too naive, a brat who had run off from some remote mountain village, completely ignorant of his own limitations.
Bird Master and Jingbi Grandpa, who had witnessed Shi Yi's extraordinary abilities firsthand, shook their heads and sighed, feeling that it was an impossible dream.
The reactions of those around him did not discourage Shi Hao; instead, they fueled his competitive spirit.
However, he was soon expelled from the Void God Realm for prying open the Treasure Bone and causing damage, and was banned from entering for two years.
Although Shi Hao was unwilling, he was still ruthlessly thrown out of the Void God Realm.
After returning to Stone Village, he told Willow God about his sights and experiences in the Realm of the Illusory Gods.
“Xuan Yi, there are indeed many records about him in the Void God Realm. The number is astonishing, and they are all genuine records of his greatness, not some kind of opportunistic trick. He is not simple. Given your current situation, there is still a very long way to go before you can catch up with him. You will have to put in twice the effort to have any chance of doing so.”
"I must remind you, he won't stand still and wait for you to catch up." Liu Shen whispered, truthfully informing him of the gap between the two.
Shi Hao nodded, determined to work hard and catch up with that creature.
Shi Yi was unaware of all this, but he had anticipated it. Shi Hao would enter the Void God Realm around the age of eight and a half, and he was currently eleven years and nine months old. Calculating the time, it was about time.
Shi Yi didn't pay special attention to this. He didn't care what others were like; he only wanted to walk his own invincible path.
The footprints he left behind, the silhouette he left behind, might ignite Shi Hao's competitive spirit, making him even stronger than his original self, but this wouldn't make Shi Yi anxious; it would only excite him.
The higher you climb, the colder it gets. Only with competitors can you be motivated to become stronger. Shi Yi understands this principle well.
At this moment, his spiritual body left the Realm of Gods and returned to his physical body in the real world.
On a vast wilderness, within the territory of a medium-sized tribe, deep underground, enveloped by a series of magic arrays, Shi Yi suddenly opened his eyes, awakening from his dazed state.
In an instant, all the insights he had gained in the Realm of the Gods were confirmed within his physical body, causing a great upheaval in his physique.
When everything calmed down, Shi Yi had already digested all the Dao Fruits without missing a single one.
Just like last time, his spiritual body had been separated from his physical body for too long, and there were many minor problems in many aspects, which would require some time to repair.
Shi Yi stood up, concealed his presence, packed away everything in the place, erased all traces of his existence, and then, under the cover of night, quietly left the place.
Shi Yi walked quickly and smoothly on the road ahead.
His destination was an extremely remote and secluded place, the exact location of which only he and the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion knew.
Back then, the first thing Shi Yi did after returning to the Realm of the Void Gods was to go to the blessed land controlled by the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, contact the Pavilion Master, and ask for his help to return to the Pure Land. Only in this way could he enter the Holy Academy and obtain great opportunities.
Shi Yi had already planned his path.
After spending more than ten days, he traversed the vast and boundless land and arrived at the agreed location. During this time, Shi Yi did not rest but kept dealing with the minor problems on his body. Now, they are almost resolved.
Ahead, a uniquely shaped mountain range stretches across the north and south, standing there majestic and imposing, resembling a giant dragon coiled up when viewed from afar.
After examining the area, Shi Yi walked towards an inconspicuous stone peak.
At the foot of the peak, beside a small river, a thatched hut stands, and a familiar figure sits at a stone table, leisurely sipping tea.
Suddenly, he turned his head, looked at Shi Yi, and smiled.
"You're here? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Shi Yi hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to the being. It was a spiritual body of the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, who was waiting for Shi Yi as promised, intending to help him return to the Pure Land.
"Since you have come to keep the appointment, it means that your cultivation has already reached the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm," the Pavilion Master's spirit body whispered.
Shi Yi nodded: "Reporting to the Sect Master, this disciple has indeed reached the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm."
The Pavilion Master's spirit nodded slightly, saying nothing more. His eyes were sharp, and he had already noticed the changes in Shi Yi.
At this moment, Shi Yi was enveloped in brilliant divine light, his temperament was extraordinary and saintly, which was not what a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm should be like, which amazed Shi Yi.
"You are indeed no ordinary person," the Pavilion Master's spirit exclaimed.
Immediately, he erased all traces of the place, his escape light flashing, enveloping Shi Yi, and vanished from the spot in an instant.
When they reappeared, they were already in front of a temporary magic circle.
