Shi Yuan's Astonishment

In the battle between the two Shis in the original story, Shi Hao had only been able to fight Shi Yi thanks to the Kun Peng Precious Technique, one of the precious techniques of the Ten Fiends.

Having obtained the complete Kun Peng Precious Technique, Shi Hao possessed the Kun Peng's supreme speed, which counteracted the Double Pupils' ability to slow an opponent down. Only then had he gained the strength to put up a fight.

Otherwise, with "Shi Yi" seeing every move and knowing it by heart, Shi Hao would have been thwarted at every turn, without the slightest chance of victory.

In this life, the Kun Peng Precious Technique in the abandoned nest in the North Sea was something Shi Yi had to secure. Obtaining a precious technique of the Ten Fiends would benefit him for the rest of his life.

Moreover, the Kunpeng Method contained the powers of supreme yin and supreme yang, which complemented Shi Yi's Double Pupils. The enhancement it could provide him was unimaginable. Such a tremendous opportunity could not be missed.

Over the days that followed, Shi Yi continued consuming precious medicines, ancient pills, mild beast blood, and other supplements to nourish his Double Pupils and the Supreme Bone in his chest, while also building up his reserves.

During this process, he consciously strengthened his blood vitality and physique.

The weakest aspect of someone with Double Pupils was the physical body. If he could develop his body to its utmost potential, Shi Yi would have no weaknesses left.

Half a month later, Shi Yuan arrived and first asked about Shi Yi's progress in cultivation.

The several precious techniques he had brought last time, second only to those of primordial remnants, would have been an impossible task for any four-year-old child who had yet to enter the Blood Moving Realm.

But Shi Yi was different. He possessed Double Pupils and the potential of a Primordial God, and now he had also obtained the Supreme Bone, putting him far beyond his peers. Shi Yuan and the clan elders of the Martial King Manor estimated that, in one month, Shi Yi could master at least two of them.

Yet when Shi Yi demonstrated the vicious beast precious techniques he had learned at Shi Yuan's request, Shi Yuan was stunned on the spot and remained speechless for a long time.

Within Shi Yi's palm, symbols containing the power of the Great Dao danced like fallen leaves drifting across the sky. They seemed chaotic, but in truth, each was precisely ordered.

In an instant, an enormous sky wolf stepped out from among them. Its fur resembled long steel needles stained with scarlet blood, and its eyes were bloodthirsty and cruel. It was so vivid and lifelike that it seemed real.

Suddenly, a pure, sacred full moon slowly rose, casting gentle radiance over the sky wolf. Its eyes turned red at once, and its aura grew increasingly terrifying, enveloping the entire courtyard.

Sky Wolf Howls at the Moon!

Shi Yuan knew this technique too. He had grasped its essence in his youth, and after so many years, using it had become second nature.

Yet after seeing the four-year-old Shi Yi perform Sky Wolf Howls at the Moon, Shi Yuan had to admit that Shi Yi's precious technique was more perfect, without a single flaw or weakness to be found.

Before Shi Yuan could react, an even greater disturbance came from Shi Yi.

The full moon and sky wolf vanished without a trace in an instant, demonstrating Shi Yi's perfect control over this precious technique.

The next moment, Shi Yi's expression remained calm as the symbols between his fingers changed into another kind. They surged out like a raging tide, swiftly constructing another precious technique. Shi Yuan was certain that even at fifteen, he had not been able to cast techniques as quickly as the four-year-old Shi Yi.

Boom!

A burst of dazzling white light exploded before Shi Yi. As the earth shook with a thunderous rumble, a rhinoceros even larger than the sky wolf charged out, bringing fierce gale winds with it. Its four thick legs churned as it hurtled toward Shi Yuan at tremendous speed. Its single white horn swung up and down with terrifying power, as though it could pierce the void.

Poof!

Just as the white-horned rhinoceros was about to reach Shi Yuan, it burst apart on its own, becoming formless and dispersing between heaven and earth.

Shi Yuan's expression grew solemn. Shi Yi had mastered White Rhino Charge as well, and his attainment was even deeper than that of a clan elder like himself. This was truly outrageous.

Suddenly, a shrill cry rang out from the heavens, accompanied by flashing lightning, rolling thunder, and the roar of a hurricane.

Startled, Shi Yuan looked up. Several dark clouds had gathered overhead without him noticing. Dazzling lightning flashed within them, and thunder rumbled from time to time. An enormous thunderbird spread its wings, stirring lightning across the sky as it swooped down, heading straight for Shi Yuan's skull.

The strike carried tremendous force, like the majestic might of heaven descending from above.

As before, the thunderbird beat its wings and disintegrated not far from Shi Yuan, breaking apart into individual symbols.

Shi Yuan had already begun to feel numb. Shi Yi had perfectly mastered all three precious techniques without exception, and not the slightest flaw could be found.

Was this the potential of a Primordial God? How terrifying. He was simply an existence beyond all common sense.

At present, Shi Yi had not even begun cultivating. He was like a hidden dragon in the depths; once he started, there would be no holding him back.

While Shi Yuan stood lost in thought, he suddenly felt that the air was somewhat hot and dry. With his cultivation, a slight sweep of his senses revealed the source: a fire toad had somehow appeared at his feet. Its body pulsed as it stared up at him with wide eyes.

This was no ordinary toad, but a precious technique no weaker than Sky Wolf Howls at the Moon or White Rhino Charge. Blazing flames wreathed its body, scorching the ground black.

Shi Yuan was speechless. This fire toad was far too fast, having arrived at his feet without a sound or trace. Of course, that was partly because he had been distracted. Otherwise, a child who had yet to set foot on the path of cultivation could not possibly have accomplished this, even if he possessed Double Pupils.

"Yi'er, you've done well. You've mastered all four precious techniques. Your great-grandfather would like to know how long it took you to reach this level." Shi Yuan first offered praise, then asked curiously.

"Less than a day, I think. These precious techniques weren't as difficult as I imagined. They were very easy to master. Great-grandfather, do you have any higher-level precious techniques?" Shi Yi replied.

Hearing this, Shi Yuan's heart nearly stopped. Less than a day? What kind of heaven-defying comprehension was this?

He forced a laugh and said, "Of course. Once you enter the Blood Moving Realm, Yi'er, I'll teach them to you.

"Right now, you have no cultivation. Using precious techniques of that level would damage your blood vitality and hinder your future cultivation."

Afterward, his heart still unable to settle, Shi Yuan led Shi Yi out of the courtyard. His purpose in coming this time was to take Shi Yi for a medicinal bath.

This process was indispensable for young children. It could help temper their blood vitality, muscles, and bones, unleash their potential, and accelerate their absorption of precious medicines and other external resources, among countless other benefits.

If administered properly, a medicinal bath could lay a solid foundation for a child's cultivation, bringing considerable benefits.

They left the courtyard and passed through one garden after another. Along the way, everyone who encountered Shi Yuan and Shi Yi greeted them respectfully. Every young person looked at Shi Yi with reverence and admiration, while every older cultivator regarded him with warmth and a smile.
