My Surname Is Shi, My Name Is Shi Yi

Wild Domain, Stone Country Imperial Capital, Martial King Manor.

"My surname is Shi, my name is Shi Yi, but I'm not the original Shi Yi. I came from an azure blue planet, a hopeless planet where nuclear war erupted across the globe."

"I don't know how I came to this world. I only know that terrifying light and heat descended from above. There was no time to react, and my consciousness vanished in an instant."

"When I opened my eyes again, the first thing I saw was a little boy with a Sky-Piercing Braid, tugging at my clothes and calling me Brother, asking me to play house with him."

Shi Yi stared expressionlessly at the two pupils reflected in the water—the Double Pupils. He more or less understood who he had become: a supporting character who had been beaten down by his little brother from beginning to end.

Just as Shi Yi was lost in thought.

A little boy with a Sky-Piercing Braid pushed open the door, skipped over to his side, and stared at Shi Yi with a pair of bright, flawless eyes.

"Yi Gege, Aunt told me to hurry you along. You've been washing your face forever."

The little boy's surname was Shi, and his name was Shi Hao. He was Shi Yi's cousin. Their fathers were cousins, and their grandfathers were biological brothers, making them cousins within three generations.

"I know."

Shi Yi rubbed Shi Hao's Sky-Piercing Braid. The Double Pupils in his eyes lit up, and at a glance, he saw through his cousin Shi Hao, spotting the Supreme Bone in his chest that gleamed with brilliance.

Unlike the original Shi Yi.

This Shi Yi did not speak carelessly. No one knew that Shi Hao possessed a Supreme Bone, and without Double Pupils, ordinary people could never discover the Supreme Bone within Shi Hao's body.

"Yi Gege, you seem unhappy?"

Shi Hao was still very young, around three years old, not even reaching Shi Yi's waist. Shi Yi was now six and already a spirited young boy.

"Happy? How am I supposed to be happy when I get boiled every day?"

Shi Yi's mouth twitched uncontrollably. Every day, people threw him into a cauldron under the name of a medicinal bath. Only after his body had turned bright red and the medicinal liquid in the cauldron had been fully absorbed could he jump out of the cauldron, which was as tall as a person.

That process was not enjoyable.

It was torturous beyond endurance.

In his previous life.

Shi Yi had never been a person with firm resolve. If the beauty trap from the Thirty-Six Stratagems were used on him, it would hit the mark every time. There was no need to worry about it failing.

Simply put.

Shi Yi could not endure hardship at all.

But he was still young, only six years old, not the future Immortal King Shi Yi. He simply could not resist the affection of Shi Hao's Aunt, who was also his own mother.

It was called affection, but her love was too overwhelming. She wanted to pour every good thing in the world onto him alone, to the point of becoming pathological.

Shi Yi had no doubt that if he dared reveal Shi Hao's Supreme Bone, then his pathological mother would absolutely dare to act while Shi Ziling and his wife were away.

Although I share his name, I'm not like him. Little brother, I know the future is dark, but I can't endure hardship at all. You'll have to take good care of your Brother in the future.

Shi Yi muttered something in his heart that no one else could hear. It was his true thought. Although he had transmigrated, he did not believe he possessed the same temperament as the original Shi Yi.

In his previous life, when he was still on the Azure Blue Planet, Shi Yi had been a cautious and steady person. But no matter how steady one was, no one could withstand a nuclear bomb falling from the sky.

He did not think that transmigrating to another world meant he could match the original Shi Yi's temperament. At the very least, the original would not feel tortured beyond endurance merely because of a daily medicinal bath.

Shi Yi understood that he was only someone who shared the same name. With the help of his Double Pupils, he certainly would not be weak in the future, but surpassing Shi Hao was basically impossible.

Shi Hao's life was either spent fighting or on the way to fight. Narrow escapes from death were commonplace for him.

Shi Yi's cautious and steady personality meant he was destined to fall short of Shi Hao, not to mention that he truly could not endure hardship at all.

Martial King Manor, rear courtyard.

In an open area of the rear courtyard stood two bronze cauldrons arranged neatly side by side, one large and one small. Fierce flames burned beneath them, and the water inside had long since boiled.

More than ten white-haired elders of the Shi Clan continuously tossed herbs into the cauldrons. Anyone could see that the Great Bronze Cauldron contained more than ten times as many herbs as the smaller one.

What made Shi Yi's scalp tingle the most was that these elders of the Shi Clan occasionally tossed in several live centipedes over a foot long and live spiders the size of fists, turning the already fairly normal medicinal liquid pitch-black, like ink spat out by a squid. It was terrifying.

At the sight of this.

Shi Yi instinctively wanted to run. Whoever wanted to enter the cauldron could do so; he certainly did not want to. Besides, he remembered that they had never added such bizarre things before. Today, they were actually tossing in live centipedes and spiders.

"Glug glug." Strange bubbles rose.

Seeing the centipede and spider corpses floating in the bronze cauldron, along with the strange medicinal liquid as thick as black rice porridge.

Shi Yi's little face turned deathly pale with fright. He truly wanted nothing more than to turn around and run. That was what he thought, and that was what he did.

But just as he turned his body, a pair of fair, jade-like hands firmly pinned him in place, leaving him unable to move.

"Yi'er, where are you trying to go?"

The voice was alluring and sweet, and the figure was full and graceful. A beautiful woman dressed in a crimson robe slowly crouched down and pulled the stiff-bodied Shi Yi into her embrace.

"Mother, the usual medicinal baths already hurt enough. Now there are spiders and centipedes too. How about we take it step by step and not use such exaggerated things for the medicinal bath?"

Shi Yi swallowed. He tried to reason with the woman before him, whose desire for control was overwhelmingly strong, at least persuading her to remove the centipede and spider corpses from the bronze cauldron.

"Exaggerated? Yi'er, this isn't over yet!"

The beautiful woman casually waved her hand. Another dozen or so elders of the Shi Clan brought over ten earthenware jars. Several of the leading elders accepted them and carefully opened the jars.

They poured the crimson liquid from nine of the jars into the Great Bronze Cauldron. Only the crimson liquid from the last jar was poured into the small bronze cauldron.

The crimson liquid was all blood, taken from Ferocious Beasts that had been hunted.

In this world, any beast called a Ferocious Beast was either pure-blooded or a descendant.

Pure-Blooded Ferocious Beasts mostly lived on Ancient God Mountain or in the Upper Realm. Their ancestors were at least heavenly deities. Most were born powerful, and upon reaching adulthood, their cultivation would naturally reach the Venerable Realm as easily as water flowing into a channel.

Descendants referred to mixed-blood offspring of pure-blooded creatures. Relying on their mixed bloodline inheritance, they could likewise reach the Array Formation Realm or even greater heights. If their opportunities were sufficient, it was not impossible for them to revert to their innate origins and become Pure-Blooded Ferocious Beasts.

In the Wild Domain, cultivation realms were roughly divided into the Blood Moving Realm, Celestial Passage Realm, Spirit Transformation Realm, Inscription Realm, Array Formation Realm, and Venerable Realm. Each realm was a world apart, and only peerless geniuses had the possibility of fighting above their realm.

"Mother, ordinary Ferocious Beast blood would be one thing, but you're even adding Ferocious Beast true blood?"

Shi Yi struggled with all his strength. His eyes were not blind. Shi Hao got one jar while he got nine. What, just because he was three years older, he had to endure nine times the Ferocious Beast true blood?

This would hurt someone to death!!!

Unlike ordinary Ferocious Beast blood, this blood was all true blood from within Ferocious Beasts, extremely precious. Whether used by adults or children, it could strengthen the body.

Besides the true blood, several elders of the Shi Clan also threw some bones ground into powder into the boiling bronze cauldron, coating the liquid with a layer of white frost.

"Yi'er, you were born with double pupils, two pupils in each eye. These are Double Pupils, something only ancient sages were qualified to possess. You are not only a future deity, but also a peerless genius destined to shake heaven and earth and stun the world. This True Blood Baptism with Ferocious Beast true blood is an important stage you must pass through."

Although the beautiful woman's heart ached and she did not want Shi Yi to suffer the pain of a True Blood Baptism with Ferocious Beast true blood, she also knew very well that this was a trial Shi Yi had to undergo.

"Plop. Plop."

The porridge-like medicinal liquid in the large and small bronze cauldrons boiled even more intensely beneath the blazing flames, occasionally bursting into clumps of thick medicinal foam.

Seeing this, the leading elders of the Shi Clan nodded in satisfaction and looked up at Shi Yi and Shi Hao standing beside the bronze cauldrons.

Everything was ready except the final step. This was a higher-level true blood medicinal bath. Once Shi Yi and Shi Hao jumped in, the Ferocious Beast True Blood Baptism could begin.

Unlike Shi Yi, whose face was filled with reluctance, Shi Hao blew on his hands, rubbed them together, and resolutely jumped into the small bronze cauldron that belonged to him.

"Glug glug."

Perhaps because he was too young, the Ferocious Beast true blood hurt Shi Hao so much that he hopped about. By accident, he gulped down several mouthfuls of the black, thick medicinal liquid.

Half a minute later.

"Yi Gege, don't be afraid of the pain. Hiss, it hurts so much, but it'll stop hurting after a while."

Shi Hao was clearly grimacing in pain, yet he insisted that it would stop hurting after a while. Shi Yi knew exactly what he was thinking. Wasn't he just trying to trick him into jumping in too?

This was an open scheme!

Shi Yi had no choice.
