Double Pupils Split Heaven

His internal organs, his limbs, and his skull all felt a terrifying pressure swelling within them, as though they would explode the very next second.

Fortunately, his attainments in the Blood Moving Realm were profound enough that his physical strength could just barely withstand it, allowing his entire body to reach a kind of equilibrium.

At that moment, Shi Yi was entirely focused on cultivating in the Blood Moving Realm and had no attention to spare for anything else.

If this furnace of medicine manifested the same phenomenon as that cauldron of medicine made from a primordial remnant, with divine power condensing into a creature and charging at him, Shi Yi would undoubtedly die.

Even with his Double Pupils and Supreme Bone, he could not possibly contend with the divine phantom of a Heavenly God-level Golden Spider.

Fortunately, the two venerables of Demon Spirit Lake had already considered this. When drawing up the list, they had included numerous supplementary medicines to make the potency of this furnace of medicine relatively gentle.

Moreover, the drop of Heavenly God blood had been used several times throughout history, depleting it considerably. Only then had the present situation become possible.

Shi Yi had already found his equilibrium and escaped danger. As his cultivation in the Blood Moving Realm and his physical strength gradually improved, he handled it with ever greater ease.

Countless streams of golden liquid flowed through his pores into his body. Some entered the Supreme Bone, where symbols churned and radiated boundless light, and mysterious chanting of scriptures rang out, as though some colossal entity were being nurtured there. Some sank into his Double Pupils, where Order Divine Chains danced and symbols emerged one after another, mysterious and unfathomable. A terrifying pressure spread from them, as though they would split heaven and earth and forge the cosmos anew.

The final portion either entered his blood vessels to support Shi Yi's Blood Moving Realm cultivation or lay dormant within his flesh and bones, settling into reserves that would gradually surge forth during his future cultivation and help him rise more quickly.

Outside the medicine furnace, the two great venerables sat cross-legged before it, keeping silent watch. As Shi Yi's birth father, Shi Ziteng had also been permitted to remain there.

Without exception, they all rested with their eyes closed. Absorbing all the essence in this furnace of medicine would take at least a month; it was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

Thus, there was no need to hurry. They only needed to wait patiently.

Time flowed on, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.

The scene within the medicine furnace had undergone a heaven-and-earth-shaking transformation.

The sacred, dazzling golden ocean was gone, consumed entirely. Only some dull residue remained, dried and charred black by the flames, like a field of ruins.

Shi Yi sat cross-legged amid the ruined residue, utterly motionless, his bearing solemn and majestic. Sacred radiance enveloped him, as though a young god had descended into the mortal world.

A lustrous glow shone over his entire body, and even his hair was crystalline and translucent. His aura was robust, countless times stronger than it had been a month ago.

His Double Pupils and the Supreme Bone within his chest, in particular, had undergone a qualitative transformation and elevation after devouring vast quantities of divine essence and vital energy.

More than one layer of mist within his Double Pupils had been dispersed outright, granting Shi Yi numerous new abilities.

Within his Supreme Bone, the thing that had been gestating for so long was also approaching maturity. Runes surged like towering waves inside it, and a cocoon of light exuded terrifying supreme might and immense power.

He was certain that, at the same point in time, he had progressed further than the Shi Yi of the original story, whether in Blood Moving Realm cultivation, raw physical strength, the development of his Double Pupils, or the growth of his Supreme Bone.

His bold declarations before Demon Spirit Lake's two great venerables had ultimately had some effect. He had persuaded them to stake everything on one attempt, bringing out even Demon Spirit Lake's deep reserve-the drop of Heavenly God blood. Only this had made possible the heaven-defying baptism that lasted an entire month.

By comparison, the medicinal bath at Martial King Manor was hardly worth mentioning. Back then, Shi Yi had only just entered the Blood Moving Realm, yet he had absorbed all its essence in a day and a half.

Of course, Shi Yi felt no disdain. Along the path of cultivation, he would remember everything that had helped him.

"The Ten Thousand Beasts Furnace has gone out. Yi'er's baptism should be nearing its end," Old Golden Spider said outside the medicine furnace, opening all its golden spider eyes.

Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider and Shi Ziteng also opened their eyes. All of them gazed eagerly at the now-silent Ten Thousand Beasts Furnace, anticipation shining in their eyes.

A drop of Heavenly God blood, sacred medicine, a vast quantity of precious supplementary medicines, the Ten Thousand Beasts Furnace... How far would such an astonishing furnace of medicine take Shi Yi?

Previously, Old Golden Spider and Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider had predicted that this baptism would help Shi Yi raise his raw physical strength to nearly, or even beyond, eighty thousand jin. But once the medicine had been refined, they discovered that its potency exceeded their expectations.

Thus, Shi Yi's results should surpass the figure they had anticipated.

When the flames beneath the medicine furnace went out completely, Old Golden Spider and Azure Demon Black-Eyed Spider immediately acted, withdrawing the Order Divine Chains that sealed it.

Then the furnace lid was lifted.

A terrifying force surged into the sky, accompanied by blazing light that illuminated the entire secret chamber.

The two spiders and the man could not help but reel in shock. Was this truly a force that a creature in the Blood Moving Realm could possess? Even an expert like Shi Ziteng was affected. It was simply inconceivable.

The next moment, Shi Yi's body slowly rose out of the medicine furnace. His eyes were gently closed, yet that could not conceal the dazzling radiance spilling from his pupils, like suns veiled by clouds.

Within his chest, the Supreme Bone also shone, blazing so fiercely that no one could look directly at it. The runes there were densely packed, and a terrifying pressure spread outward, as though a supreme being, a god, sat there cross-legged, looking down upon all living things.

Beyond the qualitative improvements and breakthroughs in his two innate gifts, Shi Yi himself had also undergone an astonishing transformation.

Within his body, the divine radiance in his blood had become even more extraordinary and transcendent. The speed at which it absorbed and released the essence of heaven and earth had greatly increased, and the power it could unleash had grown stronger still.

Most astonishing of all, this divine radiance in his blood was wreathed throughout in faint golden blood energy, its divine power as vast as an ocean.

In raw physical strength alone, he had long since surpassed eighty thousand jin.

Suddenly, Shi Yi opened his eyes. The clattering of Order Divine Chains colliding rang out within them, and dazzling divine light blossomed like two golden lamps, making them impossible to look at directly.

Crack!

With a crisp cracking sound, a patch of space where Shi Yi's gaze landed split apart, as though struck by some terrifying impact. Then chaotic energy spread, engulfing it.

The sight left Demon Spirit Lake's two venerables and Shi Ziteng profoundly shocked, as though they had witnessed a divine miracle.

"Double Pupils split heaven and earth; since ancient times, they have never known defeat in the mortal world," Old Golden Spider could not help murmuring, once again reciting the words recorded in Demon Spirit Lake's ancient texts.
