Chapter 2: Shaking the Imperial Capital
A rich scent of blood emanated from the old man, drilling into Shi Yi's nostrils and constantly stimulating his nerves.
From childhood to adulthood, he had never witnessed such a tragic scene.
It was hard to imagine that an old man with white hair and beard, with half of his body gone, was still alive and still had the energy to inquire about the safety of others.
This left Shi Yi deeply shocked; it was simply a medical miracle.
However, he reacted quickly, already knowing the situation he was in.
The shouts he heard earlier mentioned two key names—"Zi Ling" and "Hao'er"—and the old man addressed him as "Yi'er."
Shi Yi instinctively connected this to Perfect World.
"I have Transmigrated and become the Heavy Pupil User Shi Yi!"
Although he found it somewhat unbelievable, he quickly accepted this outcome, as the pain from his body surged like a tide, sweeping over him from head to toe, and this sensation was so real.
"Yi'er, are you alright?"
The old man looked nervous, fearing that something might happen to Shi Yi. Shi Ziling's earth-shattering spear earlier was too terrifying; even with him blocking in front, Shi Yi could still have been affected.
This time, Shi Yi responded. Although he was young, he appeared very composed, with deep eyes and four pupils, divine light flowing, and an invisible aura of great majesty emanating from him, completely inconsistent with his age.
"Ninth Grand-Uncle, I'm fine."
Upon hearing this, Shi Li relaxed and let out a long sigh of relief. One must know that Shi Yi was the future hope of the Wu King Manor; if anything were to happen to him, he could not bear the responsibility.
Subsequently, the old man looked towards the battlefield within the manor.
The four Old Ancestors had already made their move, forming a formation that trapped the unstoppable Shi Ziling. No matter how frantic Shi Ziling became, he could not Breakthrough the iron wall constructed by the four Old Ancestors.
This meant Shi Yi was safe.
However, what he didn't know was that the Shi Yi at this moment was no longer the Shi Yi who had been lying on his back just now; his body had long been Transformed.
"Shi Yi…"
The Transmigrator Shi Yi whispered in his heart, never expecting that he would become Shi Yi from Perfect World after his death.
He had once yearned for this favored son of heaven who shared his name and also possessed Twin Pupils.
Of the two, one was treated specially, criticized, and even discriminated against, while the other was a born Divine Being, an ancient Saint, whose name shook the ancient kingdom.
Their circumstances were poles apart, one in heaven and one on earth, incomparable.
He never expected that one day, he would become the one in heaven.
Before Shi Yi could think too much, the great battle in the manor had already reached a fever pitch. Qin Yining, who had been holding the weak Shi Hao, finally couldn't help but join the battle. Facing the combined assault of the four Old Ancestors, Shi Ziling alone was overwhelmed.
The husband and wife jointly unleashed their precious techniques, their radiance dazzling, various Holy Lights dancing together, obscuring the sky and sun, covering the entire Wu King Manor.
The attacks of the four Wu King Manor Old Ancestors were immediately hindered, resulting in a stalemate.
All the clan members watching the battle widened their eyes at this scene, their hearts deeply shaken.
Shi Ziling, as expected, was a generation's prodigy and a favored son of heaven, powerful and awe-inspiring. Even his Dao Companion, Qin Yining, was unexpectedly powerful, not inferior to Shi Ziling, which greatly astonished everyone in the Wu King Manor.
One must know that in the past, this woman had not shown much assertiveness, always standing behind Shi Ziling, playing the role of a virtuous wife and loving mother. Now, acting out of anger, the power she unleashed made even the four Old Ancestors moved.
Shi Yi first glanced at the dying Shi Hao, then was drawn to the great battle, looking towards the center of the field. From his perspective, the boundless Holy Light transformed into tangible Dao symbols, each operating with its own unique trajectory and method, constructing one magnificent and powerful precious technique after another.
This was truly miraculous. Others would only see the grand appearance of the precious techniques and feel their powerful Qi, but the Twin Pupils could see through illusions and directly perceive the Origin.
Shi Yi attempted to use the Twin Pupils' ability to find the weak points of the precious techniques displayed by the four Old Ancestors, Shi Ziling, and Qin Yining.
Generally speaking, the Qi and runes there would be noticeably weaker compared to other areas. If one could cast spells to attack the weak points of a precious technique, one could dismantle the opponent's precious technique with the least amount of power.
However, the difference in Dao cultivation between Shi Yi and these beings was simply too great. Although his eyes could perceive the Origin, they could not keep up with the changes in the precious techniques.
Shi Ziling goes without saying, a generation's prodigy of the Wu King Manor, his name echoing throughout the Imperial Capital. And Qin Yining is even more so a Saintess of the Immortal Mountain from the Upper Realm, with extraordinary talent. They knew their precious techniques had flaws, so they naturally wouldn't sit idly by. The rapid changes in the precious techniques' weak points were their countermeasure, making it difficult for enemies, especially Twin Pupils like Shi Yi, to find their weaknesses. Even if they could see them, they couldn't keep up.
Because of this, Shi Yi at this stage could not play a significant role in battles of this level; he could only be a spectator, and he himself had no intention of participating.
Suddenly, Shi Yi's expression changed slightly, his face flushed. He felt an intense itch in his chest, accompanied by sharp stinging pains, making him extremely uncomfortable. He immediately clutched his chest tightly, trying to alleviate the pain, but unfortunately, it had little effect.
Finally, he couldn't hold it in anymore and spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood with a "wah" sound.
"Yi'er."
Seeing this, Shi Li immediately took action, channeling Qi into Shi Yi's body. Not far away, several elders of considerable seniority also hurried forward, acting together to stabilize Shi Yi's injuries.
At this moment, inside Shi Yi's chest, a bone covered with complex runes was flickering on and off, emitting a faint glow. It was precisely the Supreme Bone taken from Shi Hao's body.
It had just been transplanted into Shi Yi's body, and although nourished by Supreme blood, it still needed some time to fully heal; it wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight. The previous "Shi Yi" forcibly activated it through Shi Li's power, undoubtedly increasing the uncertainty and risk for this bone.
This situation caused all the elders around Shi Yi to show nervous expressions.
The born Supreme was already gone, seemingly beyond saving. If the born Divine Being also met with an accident, then the Wu King Manor's sky would collapse.
"Shi Ziling, look at the good deeds you've done!" One of the four Old Ancestors, who favored Shi Yi's lineage, glared and shouted.
"Harming a fellow clan cousin, his death is not to be regretted. But who pities my son?" Shi Ziling angrily retorted, and his combined attack with Qin Yining became even more terrifying. Precious techniques surged forward one after another recklessly, and the four Old Ancestors also stopped holding back, retaliating with various powerful precious techniques.
"Boom!"
Finally, with a loud bang, the Seal of the Wu King Manor was broken, and the battle's fluctuations swept across heaven and earth.
Above the sky, there were Golden Winged Great Peng flapping their wings, Azure Billows opening their bloody mouths and roaring to the sky, and Five-Colored Peacock displaying their feathers, shooting out Five-Colored Divine Light…
The entire Imperial Capital was startled by this great battle. Figures from various princely manors rushed out, flying towards this direction.
