Seemingly slow, yet actually fast.
Covering the sky with one hand.
"Not bad!" Shi Yi nodded in satisfaction.
The Supreme Precious Technique, Hand of Heaven, derived from the Supreme Bone, could barely catch his eye. At least it had the ability to injure him.
Unlike the Dark Cloud Lightning Precious Technique Shi Hao had unleashed before, Shi Yi felt it was like a trick, completely lacking any killing power.
It sounded a bit arrogant.
But for Shi Yi, ordinary Precious Techniques could no longer injure him. Lightning as thick as an arm wasn't even enough to tickle Shi Yi. Even if he stood still and let the Dark Cloud Lightning Precious Technique strike him, it wouldn't break his skin.
Nothing else.
The gap was too large. The strength of Shi Yi's physical body with Ten Celestial Passages was too great compared to Shi Hao at the limit of the Blood Moving Realm, like a chasm separating Heaven and Earth. The latter couldn't even see the former's speed clearly.
"A little brother is just a little brother. You are still too far from being able to defeat your older brother!"
Shi Yi reached out and covered half of his face, then calmly closed his eyes.
Just as the hand in the sky, capable of destroying everything, the Hand of Heaven, was about to grab him.
The half of his face that wasn't covered suddenly opened its eyes, and the dark pupils instantly turned into Double Pupils.
Great terror descended.
Supreme great terror!
Light dissipated, darkness descended.
A Double Pupil, roughly the size of the moon, quietly appeared in the pitch-black night sky, staring intently at Shi Hao. From a distance, it gave an indescribable sense of dread.
The next moment.
The Hand of Heaven, as white as jade, was directly and forcefully confined in place by an invisible force. It couldn't go up, nor could it go down, just stuck in front of Shi Yi.
Shi Yi didn't do much, just reached out and touched the void. This Hand of Heaven, as white as jade and covered in dense runes, shattered bit by bit and turned into nothingness.
The power of the Double Pupil, sealing space and time.
The pupil power of the Double Pupil was like an omnipotent force. As long as Shi Yi could think of it, and the power of the Double Pupil was strong enough, he could achieve whatever he wanted.
This "could think of it".
It was like a thought, a force formed by gaze, which was the so-called pupil power.
In fact, ordinary people also had pupil power, because to put it simply, pupil power was the extension of consciousness.
How to explain it.
It was like if you wanted to move an object with your mind, you would definitely first look at it with your eyes, and then use your consciousness, gaze, and mental power to try to move the object.
It was just that the pupil power of ordinary people was too weak, at most having the ability to observe everything in the world, far from possessing the ability to move objects with consciousness, gaze, and mental power.
As a Double Pupil user, Shi Yi's pupil power was naturally strong. He wouldn't dare say he could seal the entire Stone Country with the power of the Double Pupil.
But sealing the space and time of the Martial King Manor area was not a difficult task for him.
Perhaps.
In terms of increasing physical strength, the Double Pupil is far less direct than the Supreme Bone.
But whether it's learning, creating, seeing through all things in the world, or the seemingly omnipotent power of the Double Pupil, it's something a single Supreme Bone cannot compare to.
Although the Supreme Bone is said to undergo Nirvana, and the next Supreme Bone born will only be stronger, normal people wouldn't inexplicably dig out their own bones.
The battle between Shi Yi and Shi Hao has ended.
It was a simple spar, and the result was obvious.
The current Shi Hao is far from being Shi Yi's opponent. Even when he used his strongest Precious Technique, the Supreme Precious Technique, the Hand of Heaven, he couldn't withstand a single move from Shi Yi.
"Huff huff huff! The gap is really huge. It seems catching up to Yi Gege isn't something that can be done in a short time."
Shi Hao panted heavily. Using the Supreme Bone to unleash the Supreme Precious Technique, the Hand of Heaven, put a lot of pressure on him. After all, he was currently just a cultivator in the Blood Moving Realm.
"Keep it up, big brother believes in you!"
Shi Yi patted Shi Hao's shoulder, his tone full of encouragement.
Five years have passed since he left the Martial King Manor.
Shi Yi has changed a lot, especially in his thinking. He used to hope that Shi Hao would be able to protect him after growing up, but now he feels there's absolutely no need for that.
Over the years.
Shi Yi has been thinking about one question: why does he need protection?
Because of the adult Pi Xiu?
Or because of the Bi An?
Or perhaps the Ya Zi?
Clearly, none of them.
In fact, if Shi Yi didn't want to take revenge himself, he could ask the Willow Deity to kill these three right now.
Future enemies?
But with his cautious personality, he wouldn't inexplicably provoke enemies, nor would he have a surge of saintly compassion and insist on protecting people he absolutely couldn't protect. He would only possibly provoke enemies whose interests conflicted with his own.
Indeed.
Shi Yi doesn't know the plot of the original Perfect World novel, but he knows some of the plot of the Shrouding the Heavens world, although most of it he learned from netizens.
Dark turmoil?
Sacrificing all living beings?
In his opinion.
The so-called dark turmoil is like sheep eating grass and wolves eating sheep. Having a kind heart is a good thing, and it's fine to protect within one's ability. But is it worth sacrificing one's life for it?
Sheep eating grass, wolves eating sheep, this is part of the natural cycle, just like humans eating meat, pork, lamb, beef. Were these creatures born to be on the plate?
This world is inherently dark.
Every moment, living beings perish.
They cannot be protected.
Nor can they be saved.
The dark turmoil, put simply, is wolves eating sheep to fill their bellies.
At its core, it is the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest.
If someone is willing to die to save the common people, saying this is great kindness, a welcome rain.
Yet they eat the flesh and blood of chickens, ducks, fish, cattle, and sheep, saying this is minor kindness, the cycle of Heaven's principles.
Then this is selective kindness.
Kindness does not distinguish between great and small; kindness is kindness. If one has the heart to save the common people, then upon seeing someone kill chickens and sheep, they should also save the chickens and sheep, instead of saying it is the cycle of Heaven's principles.
Shi Yi does not consider himself a very kind person. He will help if he has the ability, but if he has to risk his life, he will turn around and slap you. If he can't win, he will just run away.
Whether it is dark or not is none of his business.
As long as the darkness doesn't reach him, no matter who initiates the dark turmoil, it has nothing to do with him. No one can morally bind him to save the common people.
Then why is protection needed?
Shi Yi couldn't figure out this question. He always felt that he might have enemies in the future, but it was unlikely he would provoke someone he couldn't defeat for the sake of saving the common people.
For him.
Adult Pi Xiu, Bi An, Ya Zi.
These are his true enemies.
Enemies he must personally kill.
Desolate, northern region, deep within the Great Wilderness, a forbidden area.
This place is uninhabited year-round, a world of ice and snow. But now, three uninvited guests have arrived, adding a hint of life to this icy world.
"Third brother, is this plan really feasible?"
The Bi An with a tiger's body and dragon's head was coiled on the snow. Its massive body was like a mountain peak, its four limbs tucked under its belly, giving off a strangely endearing feeling.
"Human geniuses love opportunities the most, so we will give them opportunities," the adult Pi Xiu grinned.
"Opportunities, opportunities, I wonder how many people have died for opportunities," Ya Zi said with a sigh of emotion.
"Third brother, but this is too dangerous. Using yourself as bait, one wrong step, and you will be lost forever!" Bi An objected.
"But if we wait for him to grow up, none of us three brothers will escape," the adult Pi Xiu gritted his teeth.
"Now that kid can fight to a draw with Third brother. If we don't trick him out and surround him, eliminating the hidden danger in advance, we three brothers will sooner or later die at his hands," Ya Zi agreed.
"The problem is, even if we successfully deceive Heaven and Earth and forge a Mountain Treasure in this endless Great Wilderness, will that kid fall for the trap?" Bi An looked puzzled.
"Hmph, when he was still roaming the Great Wilderness, he fought desperately with me for a Mountain Treasure, battling for ten days and ten nights. Now that a Mountain Treasure has appeared in the Great Wilderness again, I don't believe he can resist!"
The adult Pi Xiu's voice was full of confidence. He believed that Shi Yi was the kind of person who would stop at nothing to seize an opportunity. How could a Mountain Treasure appear without him trying to snatch it?
