The Double Pupil Is the Path to Invincibility, Why Borrow Another's Bones!

Upon hearing this, a collective gasp of cold air swept through the entire hall.

Ruthless Empress!

What a ruthless person!

Cruel to others, yet even more cruel to herself!

Even the usually arrogant Ning Rongrong stared blankly at the peerless figure in the projection, a deep sense of powerlessness rising in her heart.

Her background as a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which she took such pride in, seemed like a joke in the face of this Ruthless Empress who had slaughtered her way across the universe.

Just as everyone's scalps were tingling from the sheer talent of the Ruthless Empress.

From another private room on the second floor, a voice of unwillingness suddenly rang out.

"Mr. Su!"

A young man dressed in the attire of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan stood up abruptly.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had always boasted of possessing the world's number one beast martial soul, valuing bloodline and physique above all else.

For him to admit that a mortal body could trample over all top-tier physiques was more painful than death itself.

"While this Ruthless Empress is indeed stunningly talented, isn't that Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art a bit too opportunistic?"

The young man gritted his teeth, staring fixedly at Su Chen as he asked:

"In that Shrouding the Heavens Universe, is there not a truly invincible physique, born of heaven and earth, capable of suppressing everything from birth, and perhaps even rivaling this Ruthless Empress?"

"For instance... what if you combined those powerful physiques you mentioned earlier?"

As soon as the young man spoke, many disciples from sects that highly valued martial soul inheritance echoed his sentiments.

They simply could not accept the concept that a mortal body could be the strongest.

Listening to the young man's challenge, Su Chen on the high platform stopped waving his folding fan.

He then turned his head slightly to look at the youth from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

"Combined?"

"Do you know that there is a physique born from the union of the physically invincible Ancient Sacred Body and the heaven-attuned Innate Dao Fetus?"

"It is known as the Innate Sacred Body Dao Fetus!"

As these words fell, the entire Listening Rain Pavilion fell silent once more.

Even Yu Xiaogang gripped the armrests of his chair tightly, his eyes gleaming.

Ancient Sacred Body plus Innate Dao Fetus?

This was the perfect combination of the ultimate physical body and the ultimate talent!

"Mr. Su, does such a heaven-defying physique truly exist?" Xue Qinghe could not help but ask.

"It naturally exists."

Su Chen nodded, his voice cool and detached:

"Not only does he exist, but he pushed the reputation of this physique to a peak that no one before him had reached, and no one after him will ever surpass!"

"He never tasted defeat in his entire life!"

"Whether facing the Emperors of the Primordial Era or the Supremes in the forbidden zones, he swept across everything, suppressing all enemies!"

The scene shifted, and a figure of extreme grandeur appeared against the backdrop of a shattered starry sky.

He did not turn around, simply standing with his back to all living beings.

Yet, that single silhouette alone made the heavens and the myriad worlds tremble!

An ancient stone bell hovered above his head, radiating an aura that suppressed the ages.

"He suppressed the Dark Turmoil, making those old monsters in the forbidden zones of life so terrified they dared not even breathe, forced to cower in their domains just to survive!"

"Even the black dog he kept as a pet was enough to give those so-called holy lands endless headaches!"

"His name is Wu Shi!"

"Emperor Wu Shi!"

The moment the name Emperor Wu Shi was uttered, the disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the bishops of the Martial Soul Hall felt their legs go weak, nearly unable to catch their breath.

Back to the masses, suppressing the ages!

What unparalleled dominance!

Just as the emotions of the crowd reached their peak, and everyone was staring intently at that majestic back, desperate to see what he truly looked like.

Su Chen's gavel rose abruptly in his hand.

Then, it slammed heavily onto the table!

The crisp sound instantly shattered the image in mid-air.

Soon, the hall returned to its former calm.

But everyone's hearts had been stirred, and they were dying for Su Chen to reveal everything at once.

However, Su Chen put away his folding fan and changed the subject, leaving behind a statement that drove everyone present to distraction:

"What I just spoke of was the era after Perfect World, called Shrouding the Heavens."

"The events of that world are too far in the past; a few hints are enough."

"Now, let's get back to the main topic."

"Let's see how, in the world of who reigns supreme, Perfect World, Little One Shi Hao concluded this fated encounter after digging out his own bone."

As Su Chen's words fell, the atmosphere in the entire hall was broken.

"Don't stop, Mr. Su!"

A disciple from a sect anxiously slapped his thigh, his face full of unwillingness. "What happened to Emperor Wu Shi later? What did he look like!"

"Yes, sir, please continue telling us about Shrouding the Heavens!"

"Was that Dark Turmoil completely quelled? Emperor Wu Shi suppressed eternity; was there no one who could fight him?"

For a time, the entire Listening Rain Pavilion was in an uproar.

The crowd had just been captivated by Emperor Wu Shi's supreme might, standing with his back to all beings and suppressing eternity. How could it just end like this?

It was more unbearable than killing them!

For a moment, whether it was the nobles of the Tiandou Empire or the bishops of the Martial Soul Hall, they all looked at Su Chen on the high platform with resentful expressions.

It was as if they would not leave unless he finished telling the story of Emperor Wu Shi.

However, facing the clamoring crowd below, Su Chen on the high platform calmly picked up his teacup and took a sip.

He was naturally not in a hurry.

Storytelling required a balance of tension and release, a strategy of playing hard to get.

And amidst this chaotic situation.

Xue Qinghe, in the private room on the second floor, took it all in.

She glanced at Su Chen on the stage, his expression calm, and a barely perceptible glint flashed in her eyes.

This Mr. Su truly had a perfect grasp of people's hearts.

Thinking of this, Xue Qinghe smiled slightly.

Since Mr. Su wanted to steer the conversation back to Perfect World, as the Crown Prince of Tiandou, she naturally didn't mind going with the flow and secretly helping to fan the flames.

Then, Xue Qinghe slowly walked to the railing.

"Everyone, please be quiet."

Hearing the Crown Prince's words, the boiling discussion in the hall gradually subsided.

Everyone looked up at Xue Qinghe on the second floor.

Xue Qinghe stood with her hands behind her back, her gaze fixed on Su Chen on the high platform below, and slowly spoke:

"Mr. Su, I have a great doubt regarding the Little One Shi Hao you just mentioned."

"On our Douluo Continent, if a soul master wants to absorb a soul bone, the prerequisite is that the soul bone must be ownerless, having fallen from a soul beast."

"As for soul bones on a living person, unless they are killed or their fused limbs are severed, they can only be forcibly taken."

At this point, Xue Qinghe deliberately paused, her delicate brows furrowed, feigning extreme confusion:

"But you previously said that the Supreme Bone in Perfect World was an origin bone that grew naturally within Little One, already fused with his flesh, soul, and even his vital energy!"

"Such a heaven-defying divine bone, after being dug out by that vicious aunt, could it really be easily implanted into someone else's body like our soul bones, and even continue to grow within their flesh and blood?"

As soon as this was said, everyone in the hall, who had been reluctant, was stunned.

That's right!

They had been so shocked by the aunt's cruelty and the Supreme Bone's power that they had completely overlooked this most fatal logical problem!

That was a naturally born Supreme Bone that even supreme beings from the upper realm coveted!

Then, Xue Qinghe's voice rose again, posing the core doubt:

"Moreover!"

"How could the flesh and blood of an ordinary person possibly withstand the heaven-creation and terrifying power contained within such a naturally born Supreme Origin Divine Item?"

"Let alone integrating it into their body."

"I'm afraid that as soon as the bone touched ordinary flesh and blood, that mortal would be instantly blown apart by the divine might contained within the Supreme Bone, turning into a pool of blood!"

"How could ordinary flesh and blood nurture such a divine item?"

As Xue Qinghe's barrage of questions fell, the entire Listening Rain Pavilion fell into instant silence.

The Crown Prince's words made too much sense!

It was like an ordinary soul warrior forcibly absorbing a hundred-thousand-year-level external soul bone; the outcome would be a single one: exploding and dying!

Let alone a Supreme Bone that could strike down stars and suppress an epoch?

Even if that aunt was the most vicious, she couldn't possibly dig out a bone just to have her own son explode to death, could she?

In an instant, the curiosity in everyone's minds was thoroughly hooked once again.

They stared longingly at Su Chen on the high platform, their original obsession with the story of Shrouding the Heavens now completely washed away by this immense suspense.

On the platform, Su Chen looked at Xue Qinghe in the second-floor private room, the corners of his mouth curling into a smile.

What a fine Crown Prince of Heaven Dou.

This cleverness in throwing out a brick to attract jade was truly satisfying.

"His Highness the Crown Prince is truly meticulous and hits the nail on the head."

Su Chen gently set down the teacup in his hand, producing a crisp clinking sound.

"Correct!"

"The Supreme Bone is the crystallization of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, containing unparalleled innate runes and the power of creation."

"Let alone fusing and nourishing it, even if an ordinary person were to get within a hair's breadth of it, they would be crushed into powder by that divine might!"

"But..."

"What if the person intended to fuse with the Supreme Bone was not an ordinary person to begin with?"

Hearing this, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

Not an ordinary person?

Could it be that the aunt's son also possessed some heaven-defying background or physique?

Su Chen picked up the folding fan from the table and snapped it open with a swish.

"Little One's cousin, that is, the aunt's own son, is named Shi Yi!"

"He is not much older than Little One."

"And he, too, is no mortal being!"

"If Little One is a born Supreme, then this Shi Yi is a born Ancient Sage!"

Ancient Sage?

Hearing these four words, Yu Xiaogang and the others in the main hall widened their eyes in shock.

How could another Ancient Sage pop up?

The feng shui of the Martial King Manor was simply too terrifying!

Su Chen ignored the shock of the crowd and paced slowly across the platform, his voice gradually becoming ethereal.

"In that vast and boundless world, there circulates a legend of an extremely ancient and terrifying physiognomy."

"Those who possess this appearance are born with the ability to see through the essence of all things and discern every flaw and falsehood in the world."

"It is the symbol of gods, the synonym for invincibility!"

"And Shi Yi was born with such a pair of eyes that can gaze through the ages!"

At this point, Su Chen's footsteps came to an abrupt halt.

"The born Double Pupil!"

"What is a Double Pupil?"

"It is a single eye that contains two pupils!"

Su Chen pointed his folding fan into the air; although he had not activated the Immersive Experience, the crowd felt as if they could see a pair of overlapping pupils within the oppressive tone of his voice!

"The Double Pupil is an invincible path in itself; why would one need to borrow another's bone?"

As he spoke, Su Chen's voice grew increasingly high-pitched, causing the rafters of the Listening Rain Pavilion to hum and vibrate.

"The reason that aunt dared to gouge out Little One's Supreme Bone was precisely because her son, Shi Yi, was born with the Double Pupil!"

"Only the flesh and blood of a Double Pupil, which seizes the creation of Heaven and Earth, could withstand the overbearing divine might of the Supreme Bone!"

"A peerless prodigy born with the Double Pupil is already destined to walk an invincible path."

"If one were to forcibly implant a Supreme Bone that did not belong to him into his body..."

Having said this, Su Chen swept his gaze across the crowd and fell silent.

Everyone in the hall froze at these words.

A born Double Pupil, combined with a born Supreme Bone!

Is this even human?

It was as if two future gods had been forcibly kneaded into a single body!

If such a monster were to grow up, who in this world could possibly stop him?

In an instant, the appetite of everyone present was whetted to the extreme. Countless eyes were fixed intently on Su Chen, dying to know what kind of earth-shattering power would erupt once the Double Pupil and the Supreme Bone were combined.

After losing his bone, how would Little One face such a terrifying and seemingly unsolvable cousin?

Yet, just as all eyes were upon him, Su Chen lightly tapped his folding fan against the table.

Clack!

"To know what kind of heaven-defying fortune awaits Shi Yi, the one with the Double Pupil, after fusing with the Supreme Bone."

"How will the Little One, who lost his Divine Bone, achieve nirvana and be reborn from despair."

Su Chen smiled faintly, picked up the cup of tea that had long since gone cold, and slowly uttered a few words:

"We shall discuss this in the next chapter."

As Su Chen's voice fell, the many Soul Masters were not satisfied.

"Don't do that, Mr. Su! You can't torture us like this!" A portly rich merchant frantically slapped his thighs, so agitated that he knocked over his teacup, splashing tea all over himself without even noticing.

"Exactly! What does that Double Pupil look like? What kind of celestial phenomenon did Shi Yi's fusion with the Supreme Bone trigger? Tell us in detail!"

"More money! I'll pay double, no, ten times the tea money! I beg you, sir, to speak for the time it takes an incense stick to burn!" Another sect disciple, his face flushed red with anxiety, directly pulled out a large bag of heavy Gold Soul Coins from his embrace and slammed it onto the table.

"I've lived for over sixty years, and I've never felt so anxious and restless! If you don't finish your story, sir, I'll stay here in Listening Rain Pavilion and refuse to leave today!" An old Soul Master glared fiercely, his eyes fixed on the high platform.

"That's a natural Double Pupil combined with the Supreme Bone! Two peerless Divine Bones gathered in one body, won't the Martial King Manor be able to reach the heavens? How can such a heaven-defying fortune be cut off here!"

"Don't leave, Mr. Su! Even if you just tell us whether the Little One who lost his bone eventually died or not, that would be fine!"

"Cutting it off here, how can I sleep tonight?! The moment I close my eyes, all I see are those Double Pupils looking down on all beings!"

In the main hall, the clamor grew louder and louder, with some even getting so anxious they wanted to rush onto the high platform.

Even Ning Rongrong in the private room on the second floor was biting her red lips tightly, her delicate fists clenched until they turned white. The sense of emptiness and frustration in her heart was driving her mad.

However, facing the agitated and almost berserk crowd of Douluo below.

Su Chen on the high platform remained completely unmoved.

He tidied his snow-white sleeves and then casually tucked his folding fan into his waist.

"The rules of Listening Rain Pavilion cannot be broken."

"If you all wish to know what happens next, please come early tomorrow."

After leaving these words, which offered no room for negotiation.

Su Chen turned directly and, under the gaze of countless resentful and exasperated eyes, walked towards the backstage without any hesitation.

He left behind a group of Douluo natives whose appetites had been whetted, now raging impotently in place.

Walking through the long corridor.

Su Chen pushed open the door to his luxurious resting room on the top floor.

The room was filled with the faint scent of sandalwood, extremely serene, completely isolating the noise from the outside.

He walked to the rosewood armchair and sat down, pouring himself a cup of clear tea.

Then, he closed his eyes slightly and silently recited in his heart:

"System, settle the popularity points reward for today's storytelling."
