My brother is Shi Hao

The golden halberd in Shi Yi's hand shone brightly, its tip emitting heart-pounding energy. The bone in Shi Hao's palm was as white as jade, flowing with mysterious runes, as if it contained endless power. Both men were immersed in the joy of obtaining the artifact, eager to test its power.

"Let me try first!" Shi Hao said excitedly. The Supreme Bone's light shone even brighter. He tried to channel the power within it into the Bone Sword in his hand. The Bone Sword hummed, and the space around it began to distort. A powerful wave of power spread out, rustling the surrounding trees.

However, this force was even more violent than Shi Hao had imagined, and much harder to control. The bone sword trembled violently, as if trying to break free from his grasp. Shi Hao gritted his teeth, straining to control the force, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"Be careful!" Shi Yi noticed something was wrong and quickly warned.

Almost immediately, the light on the bone sword shone brightly, and a powerful shockwave erupted, knocking Shi Hao flying. He fell heavily to the ground, and the bone sword in his hand flew out and stuck into a nearby rock, making a humming sound.

"Cough, cough..." Shi Hao clutched his chest and coughed violently, a trace of blood escaping from the corner of his mouth. He stared at the bone in his hand in astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief. He had never imagined that the power of the Supreme Bone would actually backfire.

Shi Yi hurried forward, helped Shi Hao up, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Shi Hao shook his head, took a deep breath, and calmed the surging blood and energy in his body. He said, "I'm fine, it's just that this power..." He looked up at the bone sword stuck in the rock, a trace of fear in his eyes. "It's harder to control than I thought."

Shi Yi nodded, his eyes filled with solemnity. The golden halberd in his hand trembled slightly, as if responding to the power of the bone sword. He knew that this power was not something they could easily control.

"It seems we need to be more cautious in wielding the power of the artifact," Shi Yi said solemnly, his gaze turning to the golden halberd in his hand. He took a deep breath and slowly infused his inner energy into the halberd.

The light on the halberd gradually intensified, and the energy flowing from its tip became more violent. The surrounding space began to distort, emitting bursts of humming sounds. Shi Yi felt a powerful force surge into his body, as if it was threatening to tear him apart.

He gritted his teeth, trying to control this power, his pupils gleaming with a dazzling light. He knew that if he wasn't careful, he would be like Shi Hao, being attacked by this power.

"Hah!" Shi Yi shouted, swung the golden halberd in his hand fiercely. A golden light streaked across the sky, carrying destructive force as it struck the distant mountain.

With a loud rumbling sound, the mountain was split apart by golden light, debris flew everywhere, and smoke and dust filled the air. The halberd in Shi Yi's hand also trembled violently, as if it was about to fly out of his hand.

He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the surging power within him, his gaze fixed on the split mountain. He knew this was only the beginning...

"It seems that we still have a long way to go..." Shi Yi said in a low voice, looking at the spear in his hand.

Shi Hao stood up, walked to Shi Yi, and looked into the distance with a firm gaze.

"Let's work hard together." Shi Hao said.

At this moment, the bone sword embedded in the rock suddenly made a clear sound, and the sword body trembled violently, as if something was about to break out of the ground...

The bone sword's sharp, piercing sound made their eardrums buzz. Shi Hao's eyes froze, and an inexplicable sense of danger washed over him. He instinctively reached out, trying to pull the bone sword free, but a powerful suction held him firmly in place.

"What's going on?" Shi Hao exclaimed. He tried to struggle free, but found that he could not move.

At the same time, the bone sword embedded in the rock shone brightly, its blade trembling violently. The surrounding space began to distort, forming a small vortex. A powerful force gushed out from the sword, like a raging beast, rampaging through Shi Hao's body.

"Ah!" Shi Hao roared in agony, the power of the Supreme Bone instinctively resisting this invading force. The two forces collided violently within him, like two giant dragons tearing at each other, leaving him in excruciating pain. He felt his meridians shatter, his internal organs crushed. A mouthful of blood gushed out, staining the ground red.

Shi Yi was horrified upon seeing this. He quickly activated his double pupils, hoping to see the true nature of this power. Through them, the world became crystal clear. He saw a golden energy raging through Shi Hao's body, like a dragon, charging and surging with no apparent pattern. This golden energy came from the bone sword.

"This power... seems to have its own consciousness!" Shi Yi was shocked. This was beyond his comprehension. It was not uncommon for artifacts to possess power, but he had never heard of an artifact with consciousness. This bone sword seemed not to be a dead object, but a living being with an independent will.

He looked at Shi Hao again and found that his condition was even more critical. Although the Supreme Bone was powerful, it seemed somewhat powerless under the impact of the Bone Sword. Shi Hao's face was as pale as paper, and his breathing was disordered. It was obvious that he was at the end of his strength.

"We must find a way to stop this force!" Shi Yi was extremely anxious. He tried to use his own strength to help Shi Hao, but the golden halberd remained motionless, as if suppressed by some force.

"Could it be that even I can't resist the power of this bone sword?" Shi Yi felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered another ability of his double pupils—insight. He took a deep breath, pushing the power of his double pupils to its limit, and his gaze fell on Shi Hao again. This time, he saw no more chaotic energy flows, but clear meridian pathways. These meridians were intricate and complex, like a vast maze, and the golden energy was raging through Shi Hao's body along these meridians.

"So that's how it is!" Shi Yi suddenly realized. He finally understood that the power of the bone sword wasn't completely uncontrollable; it simply followed a specific path. As long as he could find the pattern of this path, he would be able to find a way to control this power.

He closed his eyes and memorized the meridian routes seen by his double pupils in his mind. Then he slowly stretched out his hand and placed his palm on Shi Hao's back.

"Believe me." Shi Yi said in a deep voice, and a stream of pure true energy slowly injected into Shi Hao's body, traveling along those specific meridian routes.

Shi Hao felt a warm current flowing into his body, and the originally chaotic power gradually subsided. He opened his eyes in surprise and looked at Shi Yi.

"you……"

Shi Yi didn't say anything, just focused on controlling the flow of his Qi. However, at this moment, he felt a strong resistance, as if an invisible hand was preventing him from guiding his Qi.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his pupils.

"who is it?"

Shi Yi's voice was icy cold, as if it came from the Netherworld.

The wind howled, sand and rocks flew. The once peaceful valley felt as if being violently squeezed by an invisible giant hand. Rocks crumbled, ancient trees fell, and smoke and dust billowed, obscuring the sky and the sun. The source of this change was the fiercely clashing divine power of the two artifacts within Shi Yi and Shi Hao.

Shi Hao's face paled, sweat dripped down his face, and his body trembled violently. The power of the bone sword surged through his body, threatening to tear him apart. The light of the Supreme Bone flickered, stubbornly resisting the invasion, yet it seemed powerless. He gritted his teeth, trying desperately to control the surging energy within him, but it was like holding onto a wild horse, ready to be thrown into the abyss at any moment.

Shi Yi's situation was no better. Though he used his double pupils to discern the trajectory of the bone sword's power and attempted to guide it, it was like a cunning venomous snake, constantly changing its path and resisting his control. He felt as if his meridians were being pierced by countless steel needles, causing excruciating pain. The light of the golden halberd also began to flicker, as if it was under tremendous pressure.

"This won't work!" Shi Yi gritted his teeth and said, his voice hoarse. He could feel his strength rapidly depleting. If he couldn't find a way to control it, both of them would be devoured by this power.

"I... I can't control it..." Shi Hao uttered a few words with difficulty, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. His consciousness began to blur, and everything before his eyes became distorted.

Shi Yi took a deep breath, endured the pain, and activated his pupils again. His eyes turned blood red, as if they were about to bleed. He stared intently at the meridians in Shi Hao's body, trying to find a flaw in that power.

Suddenly, an idea struck him. He abruptly removed his hand from Shi Hao's back, then formed a seal with his hands and muttered something. An ancient and obscure incantation emanated from his mouth, and the surrounding space began to vibrate, a mysterious force slowly spreading.

"Use my blood as bait!" Shi Yi growled and bit his fingertips, letting a drop of golden blood drip onto Shi Hao's brow.

The golden blood, as if possessing life, quickly merged into Shi Hao's body. A powerful force instantly erupted, suppressing the raging force of the bone sword. Shi Hao's body trembled violently, and a hint of color returned to his previously pale face.

"It works!" Shi Yi was delighted and continued to chant the spell.

However, the good times didn't last long. The bone sword's power seemed to sense the threat and launched a furious counterattack. Shi Hao's body trembled violently once more, and his groans of pain echoed throughout the valley.

"Damn it!" Shi Yi cursed inwardly. He knew his method was only a temporary solution. He had to find a way to completely control this power, otherwise everything would be in vain.

He closed his eyes again, recalling the trajectory of the artifact's power as it recognized its master. Those complex paths kept flashing in his mind, like lightning, illuminating his direction.

At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of an unusual aura. It was an extremely subtle fluctuation, hidden in the chaotic energy, and it was impossible to detect without careful observation.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze as sharp as lightning, staring at the fluctuation.

"Could it be..." A gleam of light flashed in Shi Yi's eyes, and a barely perceptible smile played at the corner of his mouth. He slowly extended his hand, reaching for the wave... Shi Yi slowly extended his hand, reaching for the subtle wave. A faint golden light shone from his fingertips, like a meteor streaking through the night. This wave was the true core power of the artifact, hidden behind the violent force. It was like a sleeping dragon, once awakened, it could control everything.

Shi Yi's movements were gentle and slow, as if caressing a precious work of art. He carefully guided the golden light from his fingertips, following the trajectory of the wave, slowly and gradually penetrating deeper. The surrounding violent energy, like a frightened beast, began to churn even more violently, assaulting Shi Yi's body. He groaned, a trace of blood escaping from the corner of his mouth, but he didn't flinch. His eyes were firm and persistent, like a shining star, guiding the way in the darkness.

Shi Hao's consciousness was already blurred, but he could still feel what Shi Yi was doing. A warm power was transmitted from Shi Yi's hand, giving him a glimmer of hope. He tried hard to open his eyes, wanting to see Shi Yi's movements clearly, but he couldn't do it.

As time passed, the energy fluctuations around them grew more intense. Trees in the valley were uprooted and rocks were crushed to dust. Shi Yi's face grew paler and paler, sweat pouring down like a waterfall, but he still refused to give up. His fingertips had already touched the core of the fluctuations, and a powerful suction force came over him, as if to devour him.

"Now!" Shi Yi whispered in his heart and suddenly injected all his strength into his fingertips.

Golden light suddenly surged, like a sharp sword, piercing the chaotic energy vortex. An ancient and mysterious aura emanated from Shi Yi's body, resonating with the fluctuations. The violent energy seemed to have found an outlet and began to flow in the direction Shi Yi guided.

The bone sword power within Shi Hao gradually calmed down, no longer rampaging. Instead, it slowly merged into his Supreme Bone. He felt his body brimming with strength, an unprecedented feeling of power rising spontaneously. He slowly opened his eyes, a glint of excitement in them.

Shi Yi also breathed a sigh of relief and slowly withdrew his hand. His face was pale and his body was shaky, but he showed a faint smile. He succeeded! He found the key to controlling the power of the artifact.

"It seems that we have all found a way to get along with the artifact..." Shi Yi looked at Shi Hao. Although his voice was weak, it was full of power.

Shi Hao nodded, clenched his fists, and felt the surging power in his body, his eyes filled with confidence. He knew that this was just the beginning. They still had a long way to go, and many more challenges awaited them.

Suddenly, a low roar came from the depths of the valley, and the ground began to shake violently. Shi Yi and Shi Hao looked at each other, and each saw a hint of solemnity in the other's eyes.

"It seems that this is just the beginning..." Shi Yi whispered, his gaze turned to the depths of the valley, a gleam in his eyes, "Something is awakening..."
