The dual pupils split heaven and earth, unleashing torrents of primordial chaos. With a single strike, several royal clan members were beheaded, their headless corpses collapsing to the ground, blood gushing—a scene of sheer awe!
Shi Yi stood at the center, his black hair billowing, his pupils terrifyingly profound. Within his eyes, concentric circles overlapped—the mark of his dual pupils—emanating dreadful beams of light.
In the past, the foreign realm had known nothing of him, utterly unaware of his existence. But after today, many would remember him, unable to forget.
With a metallic clang, the two swords shrank into divine radiance, returning to his pupils and vanishing into their depths. The primordial chaos followed, making his eyes even more unfathomable.
It was astonishing—those were mere pupils, yet they nurtured two swords so sharp that even royal clansmen couldn’t resist, slain instantly!
How fearsome! Those were two god-slaying blades, inspiring dread in all who beheld them.
“Who are you?” someone roared from afar, scrutinizing Shi Yi for the first time with grave seriousness. In the past, he had never been taken seriously—until now.
Only at this moment, when Shi Yi had caused such a shocking outcome—slaying several elite royal clansmen with but a glance—did the true tremor begin.
“Shi Yi,” he replied calmly, devoid of emotion, simply stating his name.
Though he had slain several experts in one breath, he felt no excitement, only indifference. To him, this was no glorious feat.
In his conviction, the dual pupils were invincible!
In this lineage, the art of the pupils knew no equal—there should be no opponent at all!
This belief was ingrained in his soul, the very source of his confidence and faith.
“Shi Yi? Never heard of him!”
Across the battlefield, someone muttered, for the name held no weight to them—just a symbol. Yet, how could he be so strong?
“A nobody, yet with some skill,” remarked one of the foreign realm’s younger generation, pride and arrogance lacing his words.
Even knowing Shi Yi’s danger, some royal clansmen still belittled him, speaking with disdain.
On the walls of Imperial Pass, many were thrilled and shaken. Shi Yi, the dual-pupiled one, was this formidable? Two swords had fallen from his eyes, slaying multiple royal clansmen—what an astounding feat!
Now, hearing the foreign realm’s denizens mock Shi Yi, they couldn’t help but defend him.
“If you’ve never heard of the dual-pupiled one, it only shows your ignorance!”
Some in the foreign realm laughed, even knowing Shi Yi was extraordinary—a terrifying young powerhouse—yet they couldn’t resist taunting.
“What dual-pupiled one? Never heard of him. Think one victory makes you invincible? Don’t fool yourself into thinking you’re another Desolate!”
They roared with laughter.
In truth, they feared Desolate, but they also sought to provoke Shi Yi, for they knew nothing of his identity.
“Dual pupils or not, when our imperial clan strikes, you’ll be slain!”
“Not everyone is Desolate—and even he won’t live much longer!”
The foreign cultivators sneered, their pride laced with cruelty.
Even Cao Yusheng couldn’t hold back, retorting, “Never heard of the dual-pupiled one? Let me enlighten you. He’s not Desolate—he’s Desolate’s elder brother!”
The words stunned the foreign realm’s cultivators, leaving them speechless.
Some had been ready to mock, but now they fell silent.
Desolate’s… elder brother?
Was it true? Born of the same mother, true brothers?
The foreign realm’s younger generation reeled—this was no ordinary relationship.
Now, no one dared mock or call Shi Yi a nobody.
If he truly was Desolate’s elder brother, then he deserved their utmost attention and scrutiny!
Lately, Desolate had shaken them to the core, even slaying five of the Six Young Emperors in a row—a feat terrifying enough to echo through the ages.
And now, Desolate’s elder brother had emerged. Was this another monster? The thought left them uneasy, even the imperial clansmen solemn.
Their realm valued bloodline power above all, believing in inherited talent.
If Desolate was this terrifying, how fearsome would his elder brother be?
Recalling how “Desolate’s elder brother” had merely glared, unleashing two peerless sword embryos from his eyes, slaying several royal clansmen in an instant—clean, decisive, ruthless—they shuddered.
In that moment, Shi Yi, the dual-pupiled one, was etched into their minds. None dared underestimate him now, all regarding him with grave solemnity.
Desolate’s… elder brother!
The label stuck, marking him as a figure of extreme danger.
Their expressions, their thoughts—all were clear to Shi Yi, Da Xu Tuo, Cao Yusheng, Qing Yi, and the others.
The group was speechless. “Desolate’s elder brother”—such an awkward title, a jest—had become a terrifying label, forcing the foreign realm’s younger generation to take him seriously.
On Imperial Pass’s side, many were at a loss—amused, yet unable to laugh.
The instigator, Cao Yusheng, was equally dumbfounded. A casual remark had made the foreign realm’s royal and even imperial clans treat Shi Yi with utmost gravity.
“Desolate’s elder brother, my apologies for the oversight. I challenge you—dare you accept?”
A figure stepped forth from the foreign realm—an imperial clansman, kin to Suo Gu, descendant of Yu Tuo, radiating killing intent.
Desolate had slain his elder brother Suo Gu. Assessing his own strength, he knew he stood no chance against Desolate. But now, learning Desolate had an elder brother, Suo Ming sought to duel Shi Yi, determined to slay him.
An imperial clansman’s challenge—the atmosphere tensed instantly.
Even the usually carefree Cao Yusheng and the Lunar Jade Rabbit grew solemn, ceasing their banter.
“Very well, come forth and fight!” someone declared.
But it wasn’t Shi Yi who spoke—it was the Banished Immortal, stunning everyone.
Wasn’t the challenge for Shi Yi, Desolate’s elder brother? Why was the Banished Immortal stepping in? Even Imperial Pass’s side was baffled.
“Who are you? I challenge Desolate’s elder brother!” Suo Ming demanded coldly.
“Naturally… I am Desolate’s elder brother,” the Banished Immortal replied.
The foreign realm’s group was dumbstruck. Another elder brother? How many siblings did Desolate have?
Shi Hao, too, was speechless—the Banished Immortal’s words were unexpected.
Imperial Pass’s cultivators found it odd, then realized—the Banished Immortal was teasing them.
Known for his ethereal, transcendent demeanor, the Banished Immortal was the last person they’d expect to crack such a joke.
But those who knew him understood—beneath his serene exterior lay a ruthless, deadly force. During the Three Thousand Provinces’ genius battles, his hands had been drenched in blood, his feats surpassing even Shi Hao’s and the Ten Crown King’s by far.
“Who is truly Desolate’s elder brother? Step forth and fight!” Suo Ming roared, feeling mocked.
“Fine, I’ll fight you!”
Before Shi Yi or the Banished Immortal could move, the Ten Crown King acted, striding forth like an emperor, each step leaving divine runes in his wake, his aura overwhelming.
“You… who are you now?” The foreign realm’s group, especially Suo Ming, was incensed.
“Desolate’s elder brother,” the Ten Crown King declared.
The crowd was speechless. Another “elder brother”? This was outright mockery!
“You seek death!”
The foreign realm’s young elites erupted in fury.
Imperial Pass’s side burst into laughter—who’d have thought the solemn Ten Crown King and ethereal Banished Immortal could be so mischievous?
Even Shi Hao grumbled internally. Sure, they were older, but did they all have to parade as his “elder brothers”? This was blatant teasing.
“Whether you’re Desolate’s elder brother or younger brother, dare you face me?” Suo Ming bellowed, enraged.
The foreign realm’s younger generation seethed, feeling utterly disrespected.
“I’ll fight you!”
“Kill!”
“Slay!”
In that instant, the Ten Crown King, the Banished Immortal, and Shi Yi struck simultaneously, unleashing boundless runes.
Particularly the Ten Crown King, wielding his treasure tree without restraint, swung it directly at Suo Ming.
Three powerhouses attacking at once—the force was terrifying.
But the most devastating blow came from the Ten Crown King’s world sapling, its divine runes overwhelming, sending Suo Ming flying.
The sapling’s might was boundless!
The spectators’ blood boiled, their battle cries rising as they charged forward—Da Xu Tuo, Little Heavenly King, Lan Xian, Qi Gu Daoist, Yi Yi, Qi Hong, Tuo Gu Yu Long, and more.
“Don’t forget me—Desolate’s elder brother’s elder brother is here too!” The golden ant Tianjiao and Cao Yusheng egged the crowd on, joining the charge.
“And us—Desolate’s elder sisters have arrived!” The Lunar Jade Rabbit and the Wei Family’s Four Phoenixes chimed in, their voices crisp.
The foreign realm’s younger generation turned livid—they were being mocked, toyed with. “Kill!” they roared.
“Humph!”
With a cold snort, Shi Hao also surged forward—the great melee had begun!
