"Kirin Steps?
In the incomplete true blood memory of the pure-blooded fierce beast, there were scenes of the Flame Kirin using the Kirin Steps.
The true body of the Flame Kirin, hundreds of meters tall, had earth-shattering power. With a casual step, the void felt an unbearable heaviness, and all living beings couldn't help but bend their knees.
Some people and creatures whose strength was inferior to the Flame Kirin directly knelt on the spot, and those who were severely injured died instantly, making this Flame Kirin appear majestic.
But humans, most of the time, are completely without martial virtue. Soon, the Stone Clan ancestors, who were among the Martial King Manor's many retainers, led a large group of people to surround the Flame Kirin.
What followed was a ruthless siege.
Even though the Flame Kirin was a pure-blooded creature, a pure-blooded fierce beast, possessing the powerful Qilin Treasure Technique and unparalleled combat strength, in a one-on-one fight, no one on the Battlefield of Hundred Clans or any Archaic Remnant was its match.
But facing the siege, the shameless encirclement, the Flame Kirin gradually felt unable to hold on. Finally, after ten days, it died of exhaustion, and its bones became the spoils of war for the Stone Clan ancestors and the others.
Seeing this.
The Double Pupil in Shi Yi's eyes flickered slightly.
Soon, this memory scene began to magnify infinitely. Shi Yi's mental thoughts could easily enter the scene and peek into the other party's bloodline inheritance.
This was one of the abilities possessed by a Double Pupil user. He could see many things that others couldn't. This world was almost transparent to him.
For example, the bloodline memories remaining in the true blood of a pure-blooded fierce beast, or the resplendent Supreme Bone within Shi Hao's body, none of it could escape his Double Pupil.
As long as he wanted to, and was strong enough.
In this world, there were no secrets.
"Could it be that I can steal and learn the treasure techniques of pure-blooded fierce beasts like this? It's a pity that I didn't kill the Kirin, so the true blood is incomplete, and the inheritance memory in the bloodline is also incomplete. I can only obtain the incomplete Qilin Treasure Technique. Qilin Fist, Qilin Foot, Qilin Markings, these haven't been passed down." Shi Yi felt a little regretful.
But he also knew that this ability of his was already extremely heaven-defying. Not only could he peek into the other party's memories from their blood, but he could even steal and learn their treasure techniques.
However, the current Shi Yi was not the original Shi Yi. He was a person who was content with what he had. Incomplete was incomplete; wasn't incompleteness also a kind of beauty?
Most importantly, if it were a complete Qilin Treasure Technique, the great powers from the upper realm would have come down to snatch it long ago.
The Kirin was one of the Ten Fierce of the Archaic Era, and its treasure technique was extraordinary, possessing the ability to shake heaven and earth.
But if it was an incomplete Qilin Treasure Technique, the great powers from the upper realm would have to consider the cost of descending. Descending wasn't something they could do just by saying they would.
Just as Shi Yi was secretly learning the Qilin Steps of the Qilin Treasure Technique, Shi Hao, who had finished his medicinal bath, jumped out of the small bronze cauldron. After the surrounding maids helped him get dressed, he skipped and hopped all the way to Shi Yi's mother.
"Aunt, it just got dark, and lots and lots of scary big eyes appeared in the sky." Shi Hao's small face was full of shock, and his small hands exaggeratedly gestured to the indescribably huge eyes.
"That's Yi'er's Double Pupil. My son, Shi Yi, has the potential of a sage." Shi Yi's mother said proudly.
She came from the Rain Clan, but she wasn't a prodigy and had no great achievements. Her strength was average, but she had one source of pride, one person she wished she could give all the good things in the world to.
This person was clearly Shi Yi.
"Brother Yi's Double Pupil is really amazing. I feel like he can see through everything about me." Shi Hao scratched his head, his eyes filled with admiration, but no jealousy.
At this moment.
Shi Yi's mother seemed to have thought of something. She squatted down and said to Shi Hao very seriously, "Hao'er, from now on, you must listen to Yi'er properly, and your Brother Yi will protect you."
In her opinion.
Shi Hao was certainly no match for his son, Shi Yi, but his son, Shi Yi, couldn't be without trustworthy followers and subordinates in the future. Shi Hao, this cousin, was the best little follower for his son.
Honestly.
Shi Hao wasn't against Shi Yi's mother's words. It was only right for an older brother to protect his younger brother. But thinking of the usually lazy Shi Yi, he could only pull a long face.
"Aunt, Hao'er also wants Brother Yi to protect him, but Brother Yi often tells me that Hao'er should protect him when he grows up!" Shi Hao said with a sigh, his face drawn.
"Yi'er really said that?"
Shi Yi's mother looked disbelieving. Although she usually felt her son couldn't endure hardship, she didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned.
How could he say something like letting his younger brother protect him?
If she weren't sure Shi Hao wouldn't lie, she probably wouldn't believe such a thing at all.
"Brother Yi... seems to have said that..."
Shi Hao hesitated, only able to pull a long face. How could he not want to be protected? But some people couldn't endure any hardship and simply threw this burden of responsibility away in advance.
It was at this moment.
In the deepest part of the Martial King Manor.
"Yi'er's thinking has a problem!"
"Yes, there's definitely a big problem. Yi'er usually can't endure hardship. He screams in pain during medicinal baths every day. If his thinking isn't corrected in time, Yi'er will likely find it difficult to become a generation's prodigy."
"We must arrange a trial for Yi'er. How can a Shi Clan disciple have such a weak and spineless character? How can an older brother actively ask his younger brother to protect him?"
"But Yi'er is still young. We can't let him take risks."
"It's our fault. After discovering Yi'er has the Double Pupil, we've been holding him in our palms. These past few years, as a descendant of the Martial King Manor, Yi'er has lived a very luxurious life. Send him to the Ancestral Land to live a simple life for a while."
"It just so happens that he has completed the true blood baptism of a pure-blooded fierce beast, and his foundation has been completely solidified. Ordinary medicinal baths are no longer effective, and the Martial King Manor doesn't have more pure-blooded fierce beast true blood. It was all given to Yi'er alone."
"Even if Old Fifteen really returns from the Battlefield of Hundred Clans, he might not necessarily get pure-blooded fierce beast true blood. And even if he does, with his bad temper, he will definitely use the pure-blooded fierce beast true blood on his own grandson, Shi Hao."
"Send him to the Ancestral Land, and it can't be the Second Ancestral Land. It must be the First Ancestral Land deep in the Great Wilderness."
"Yi'er is a Double Pupil user, a born sage, the future of the Martial King Manor. What about his safety?"
"Old Ninth, Old Thirteenth, you two will have to work hard these past few years and guard outside the First Ancestral Land."
A few old ancestors of the Shi Clan in the Martial King Manor decided Shi Yi's fate in just a few words, temporarily stripping him of his identity as a prince's descendant of the Martial King Manor.
With Shi Yi's talent, he would definitely surpass them in the future, becoming a god and an ancestor. But now, they were the earthly supreme beings, qualified and capable of deciding Shi Yi's future.
No one could be blamed for this; it could only be blamed on Shi Yi's own foul mouth, his fondness for talking big to the three-year-old Shi Hao. Now everyone understood that he had some issues with his thinking.
In the blink of an eye.
Several hours passed.
Shi Hao was lying on top of the large bronze cauldron where Shi Yi was, his little feet swinging back and forth. The medicinal liquid and pure-blooded fierce beast true blood in the cauldron had long been completely absorbed by Shi Yi's body.
Currently, Shi Yi was secretly learning the Qilin Treasure Technique from the bloodline inheritance of the pure-blooded fierce beast Qilin. Although it was only an incomplete Qilin Treasure Technique, it wasn't something that could be learned in a short time.
"Brother Yi didn't just say that... He said his ability was limited, that he didn't have the ability to protect the entire world, nor the ability to save billions of lives. At most, he could protect his own family."
"He said... he said if he ever felt tired, he might as well stop and rest for a while. The world couldn't rely on one person. If he went on like that, he would likely end up alone."
