Moreover, this wasn't Shi Yi's limit. After all, he hadn't seemed particularly strained when lifting the divine iron spear.
The Old Golden Spider's eyes gleamed as he produced a Three-legged, Two-eared Cauldron.
"This cauldron was forged from divine stone extracted from the Southern Fallen God Mountain. It weighs ninety thousand jin. Shi Yi, try and lift it."
"Clang!"
The ninety-thousand-jin cauldron crashed to the ground from the Old Golden Spider's hand, producing a loud noise.
Shi Yi nodded, without saying much. He once again stood before the cauldron, grasping two of its legs with his hands. Then, his legs, arms, and core all exerted force simultaneously.
The cauldron left the ground, rising instantly and surpassing Shi Yi's head.
"Ninety thousand jin can't even faze you?"
The Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider was shocked.
This was just a five-year-old human child, yet his pure physical strength had reached ninety thousand jin. What did that even mean? It was almost on par with pure-blooded creatures of the same level.
You had to understand, physical strength was a weakness for those with double pupils. Shi Yi's true strength lay in his techniques, and his double pupils were almost unbeatable.
Now, his weakness was almost as strong as the strengths of those pure-blooded creatures. How could they possibly compare?
The Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider watched Shi Yi, who was still holding the ninety-thousand-jin cauldron with ease, and steeled its heart. It took out a ten-thousand-jin halberd from its storage space and dropped it on the ground.
"Dong!"
The sound of the halberd hitting the ground showed just how heavy the weapon was.
"This is the Azure Demon Halberd, weighing one hundred thousand jin. It was my weapon when I was in the Blood Transporting Realm. Back then, I relied on the divine aura of my blood combined with my physical strength to wield it."
"With just the power of your physical body, you wouldn't even be able to lift it. Yi'er, if you can lift it, it means that in terms of the physical body, you are no weaker than pure-blood creatures of the same level."
The Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider spoke.
"One hundred thousand jin?"
Shi Ziteng, not far away, was inwardly shocked. This number, within the Blood Transporting Realm, had always been exclusive to pure-blood creatures. No human had ever reached it, at least, Shi Ziteng had never heard of it.
And now, was he about to witness a miracle?
Shi Yi nodded and came before the Azure Demon Halberd. With both hands, one firmly grasped the handle, the other gripped the shaft. With a loud shout, he exerted all his strength, and the veins on his arms bulged visibly.
Under Shi Yi's full effort, the one hundred thousand jin Azure Demon Halberd was lifted up.
Although Shi Yi's arms trembled slightly, they never wavered. In the end, he managed to raise the Azure Demon Halberd above his head.
"That's enough, put it down."
Old Golden Spider could see that this was likely Shi Yi's current limit.
Shi Yi, hearing this, released the force from his hands, took a step back, and let the Azure Demon Halberd fall, producing a heavy sound.
At this moment, the Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider was already speechless, and Shi Ziteng was gasping for breath, his heart having nearly stopped.
What had he just witnessed? A human, five years old, lifting a halberd weighing a hundred thousand jin with his arms. If this were to spread to Shi Nation, it would certainly cause a great shock.
Even if broadened to encompass the entire Barren Region, Shi Yi was unique. This surpassed the limits of the human race, enough to make people re-evaluate this inherently physically weak species.
This was still the case without Shi Yi using his Supreme Bone. If he were to remove the restrictions, fully integrate with the Supreme Bone, and allow the supreme blood to flow throughout his body, his achievements would likely be even greater.
Although the two Demon Spirit Lake Venerables, along with Shi Ziteng, didn't know why Shi Yi wasn't accepting the Supreme Bone, they didn't interfere. Shi Yi, with his double pupils, didn't need them to plan too much; they only needed to provide him with sufficient resources and protection.
"Astonishing. This old one never thought that one day, humans could match pure-blooded creatures in terms of physique. Truly unbelievable." In the end, the Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider could only utter such a statement.
Old Golden Spider nodded repeatedly. It knew they had cultivated a monster. His Dao was invincible, and his body was also invincible. Even if the strongest inheritor from the Ancient God Mountains came, they would be terrified of Shi Yi.
However, Shi Yi wasn't satisfied. His two arms, each capable of lifting 100,000 jin, were only comparable to pure-blooded creatures. Compared to Shi Hao's achievements, he was still far behind, not even halfway there. He still had a long way to go.
Fortunately, Shi Yi was still young and had enough time to strive for the true pinnacle of the Blood Transporting Realm.
The early years were a time of growth, and the power of blood and Qi would naturally increase with age.
Of course, relying solely on the natural increase with age was far from enough. He still needed more opportunities and effort.
Seeing Shi Yi expressionless, lost in thought, the two spiders exchanged a look, both somewhat astonished. 100,000 jin with both arms, and Shi Yi wasn't satisfied? Could it be that he was really preparing to aim for that illusory, impossible goal of 108,000 jin with a single arm?
"Yi'er, your physical achievements are already remarkable. Why bother seeking trouble for that illusory goal?" Old Golden Spider comforted.
By now, the two Venerables had regarded Shi Yi as their own and sincerely wanted to nurture him, striving to raise an invincible Double-Pupiled person in the Barren Region.
"Ancestor, Shi Yi's goal remains unchanged. 100,000 jin is far from this junior's limit," Shi Yi replied.
Seeing that he was so determined, the two尊者s couldn't continue persuading him.
"In ten months, the Ancient God Mountains will hold the Blood Pool Baptism, which happens once every ten years. It's an opportunity for you to break through your limits. Each Ancient God Mountain only has two spots, and they're limited to creatures in the Blood Transporting Realm.
At that time, you will represent my Demon Spirit Lake and go together with a pure-blooded descendant of our clan," Old Golden Spider suddenly announced.
This made Shi Yi's heart stir. Blood Pool Baptism?
Beside him, the Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider and Shi Ziteng looked enlightened. If Old Golden Spider hadn't brought it up, they would have forgotten about it.
"Yes, the Blood Pool Baptism is coming soon, and it should be of some help to Yi'er," the Azure Demon Black-Pupiled Spider nodded.
"May I ask the two祖师, what is the Blood Pool Baptism?" Shi Yi asked softly.
He knew that without other opportunities, it would be difficult to reach the ultimate goal just by diligently cultivating his strength. Therefore, Shi Yi really wanted to know what the so-called Blood Pool Baptism was.
"The Blood Pool Baptism is exclusive to the Ancient God Mountains. It's normal that your human ancient nations don't know about it."
It's a long story. In ancient times, a world-shaking war erupted in the lower realms. A relic, connected to the Qilin, one of the Ten Great Fiends of the Ancient Times, reappeared.
At the time, many forces fought to control the secret realm. Eventually, the ancestors of the Ancient God Mountains joined forces and seized control.
Although the ancestors didn't discover the Qilin's inheritance in the relic, they still made some gains. In an area only accessible to beings in the Blood Transporting Realm, they found a blood pool. It was rumored to be the baptismal ground of the Qilin cubs and was extremely beneficial to those in the Blood Transporting Realm.
Therefore, the various powers of the Ancient God Mountains agreed to send their most outstanding descendants to the blood pool for baptism every ten years."
