Just as the five people were gathering their strength, ready to teach Qin Hao a lesson the moment the trial began and make him pay for his previous words, the formation beneath their feet lit up.
Immediately after, a massive eyeball appeared above them. It was a Double Pupil. Under the gaze of this Double Pupil, Qin Hao and the others felt as if they had no secrets left to hide.
The eyeball swept over Qin Hao and the rest one by one. Then, a grand and emotionless voice exploded simultaneously in the minds of the six people:
"The Heavenly Pupil Trial officially begins."
"Rule: Unleash your respective methods to your heart's content. The trial will only end when all others have lost their ability to move."
"Buzz~" As the announcement concluded, the laws within the formation suddenly tightened. The suppressive force reached its peak, completely cutting off any external interference.
"Arrogant brat, take this!"
Shi Yue could no longer suppress the monstrous anger in his heart. The moment the rules were announced, he was the first to charge out.
Shi Yue's eyes went wide, and his Double Pupils burst forth with an earthen yellow light.
This was Shi Yue's ocular divine ability. He used his Double Pupils to channel the Laws of Earth, combining it with his own tyrannical vitality to form an invisible, dual suppressive force of both spirit and matter.
Its power was like an immemorial divine mountain crashing head-on. Not only could it imprison an opponent's movements, but it could also directly shake the divine soul and crush their will.
The other four did not intervene. Although they had formed an alliance, there could only be one final victor. They also wanted to use this opportunity to analyze the intelligence of both Qin Hao and Shi Yue.
Facing Shi Yue's full-powered strike fueled by rage, Qin Hao merely raised his head slightly, his own Double Pupils calmly looking back into Shi Yue's furious Double Pupils.
"Is that it?"
Two light words slipped from Qin Hao's lips. In the next instant, the light within his Double Pupils suddenly flared.
From his left pupil, a dazzling golden light burst forth, seeing through all illusions and gazing straight at the origin. Under Qin Hao's gaze, Shi Yue's fiercely peerless ocular power was peeled back layer by layer, revealing the trajectory and core nodes of the ocular power flowing within.
Immediately following, Qin Hao's right pupil shot out a dark light of destruction, accurately striking the core node of Shi Yue's ocular power.
Four eyes met, Double Pupils against Double Pupils.
"Boom!"
The ocular power of the two men collided fiercely, like two invisible divine mountains.
"Pfft—!"
With just a single exchange of glances, the sinister smile on Shi Yue's face instantly froze, immediately turning into a look of agony and horror.
In the moment he met Qin Hao's gaze, he felt as if he had crashed into an unshakeable wall of sighs.
His proud ocular power was instantly broken by the other party. Qin Hao's ocular power recklessly rushed into Shi Yue's sea of consciousness, directly striking his origin.
Shi Yue's entire body was sent flying backward, and he uncontrollably spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What!?"
"This is impossible!"
"They both have Double Pupils, and they are both in the Soul Formation Realm. Why did he defeat Shi Yue with just a single glance?"
When Xiao Ling'er and the others saw this scene, their pupils shrank sharply, their faces full of disbelief.
Shi Yue's previous attack had vigorous power and astonishing defense. Even they wouldn't dare say they could easily catch it. Yet this guy didn't even move; with just a single glance, he forcibly repelled Shi Yue using his ocular power?
Seeing their reactions, Qin Hao chuckled lightly. Competing with him in Double Pupils? With the help of the system, he had perfectly fused multiple physiques.
A portion of the power from physiques like the Innate Dao Body had long since become a part of Qin Hao's Double Pupils.
It was precisely by relying on the Innate Dao Body's affinity for laws and the Great Dao that Qin Hao's Double Pupils could instantly see through the origin of Shi Yue's Double Pupils.
Going head-to-head with him in an ocular power competition, wasn't that just seeking death?
Qin Hao cracked his neck, the bones making a popping sound:
"Now, do you still have any objections when I say you are all trash?"
Looking at the boundlessly arrogant Qin Hao in front of them, although they gnashed their teeth in hatred, no one said a word.
Shi Yue, who had been sent flying by Qin Hao's single glance, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shouted to the other four:
"Everyone! This kid's ocular power is bizarre. In front of those eyes of his, our Double Pupils seem like defective products! We cannot fight him head-on." Shi Yue's voice was hoarse, yet it carried a sense of superiority:
"We should avoid our shortcomings and compete with him in terms of our foundations. How could our inheritances, magical treasures, and combat experience be compared to this wild brat who popped out of nowhere?"
Hearing Shi Yue's words, Xiao Ling'er and the others suppressed the shock in their hearts, their eyes gradually returning to calmness.
"Brother Shi is absolutely right. No matter how strong his ocular power is, that's all there is to it. If we join forces and crush him with our divine abilities and magical treasures, we can exhaust him to death."
Hearing their words, Qin Hao was amused. What were these people trying to do? Competing with me in foundations? Just because they feel the factions behind them are extraordinary, they think they can use their foundations to mess with me?
Not to mention that the Qin family behind him was the number one Desolate Ancient Family of later generations, he himself was also someone with a cheat. No matter how profound your foundations are, could they be more profound than mine, a cheater?
Just as Qin Hao was secretly despising them, Shi Yue and the other four took action.
Shi Yue roared, stomping his foot fiercely and grasping the empty air with his hands. Immediately after, earthen yellow light gathered beneath his feet, ultimately condensing in his hands into a giant hammer with a quaint design, heavy and blunt.
The Earth-Shaking Peak! The totem Emperor Weapon worshipped by the Stone Clan. It exuded a majestic aura that suppressed the earth and carried all things.
Xiao Ling'er closely followed, summoning a jade flute that was completely emerald green, seemingly alive. The body of the flute was covered in profound phoenix patterns.
The jade flute was currently flowing with a faint cyan halo, exuding a supreme coercion that was clear and melodious, yet capable of commanding all sounds.
The Nine Heavens Phoenix Cry Flute! The suppressing Emperor Weapon of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion, forged from innate divine jade from the dwelling place of an ancient divine phoenix. It contained a trace of the divine phoenix's Dao rhythm. The sound of the flute could nourish all things, as well as shatter divine souls, commanding the Great Dao of All Sounds.
The remaining three also took out their respective magical treasures: a token, an ice crystal, and a dagger.
From the auras exuding from these magical treasures, it was not hard to judge that, without exception, they were all Emperor Weapons.
It is often said that fear stems from a lack of firepower. After Shi Yue and the others brought out their Emperor Weapons, their previous dread of Qin Hao immediately vanished into thin air, replaced only by deep mockery.
"To be able to force all five of us to take out our Emperor Weapons, kid, you can be considered to have died a worthy death! How about it? You haven't seen this many Emperor Weapons in your entire life combined, have you?"
Listening to their words filled with superiority and mockery, and looking at the magical treasures radiating Emperor Might in their hands, Qin Hao felt a bit like laughing.
"Pfft—" Qin Hao sneered, his tone carrying undisguised disdain:
"Is that it?"
"Five pieces of broken copper and scrap iron. Seeing how fiercely you were barking, I thought you could at least bring out Ultimate Emperor Weapons. In the end, it's just some ordinary Emperor Weapons."
"How do you even have the nerve to take out this kind of scrap metal?"
Qin Hao's words were like poking a hornet's nest, instantly making the five of them blow their tops.
"Arrogant!"
"Presumptuous!"
"You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...
