Situ Wen seemed to understand somewhat and returned to Qinghe Town to call upon the townspeople.
Everyone in Qinghe Town left their homes, bringing their families, food, and livestock. Yanshi Puppets drove ox carts and horse carts, and many disciples of the Lu Ban Sect carried incomplete mechanisms as they headed towards the Yue King Temple.
Situ Wen looked at the towering Black Iron Pillar and hesitated: "How should we take this thing away..."
Black Pot stepped forward, placing his palm on the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler. Flames erupted around him, forming the Circulation Fire Realm, causing the various strange patterns on the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler to light up one by one.
With a whoosh, the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler flew up and fell into Black Pot's hand.
Black Pot carried the iron stick, limping along at the front of the group.
This time, Chen Shi's enlightenment took longer than any previous time. By the time the people of Qinghe Town reached the Yue King Temple after three days and two nights, he had not yet awakened. So Black Pot and Situ Wen commanded everyone to build houses around the Yue King Temple, reclaim farmland, and plant crops.
Black Pot personally cooked large pots of food; when a child cried, he would go over to comfort and change diapers.
Five days later, the people of Qinghe Town finally settled down.
Black Pot's injuries also mostly healed; he was bustling about, packing his belongings, then used the Heavenly Court Token to enter the Little Heavenly Realms, arriving in front of the mural to check the geographical positions left by each member of the Heavenly Court.
Choosing the nearest one, he left the Little Heavenly Realms, put away the Heavenly Court Token, placed his paw to his lips, and blew a loud whistle.
In the distance, a wooden cart was hunting on its own, capturing Ghost Monsters and Evil Spirits to eat. Upon hearing the whistle, it immediately rushed over.
Black Pot jumped onto the wooden cart, pointed the direction, and signaled the cart to set off.
The wooden cart, having been hunting Ghost Monsters and Evil Spirits nearby, strengthened itself and immediately accelerated wildly.
Black Pot was startled and looked back to see Chen Shi following leisurely behind the cart, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
He laid a cushion for himself on the cart, sat cross-legged, and propped another cushion against his waist, using the Geographical Map to compare with the surrounding geography, searching for the next suddenly appearing mountain.
Days later, in Lingzhou City, Ghost Gods were gathering.
The Xu Family's various Yin Messengers, Yin Commanders, Judges, and others rushed to Lingzhou. Lords from all over Lingzhou, beings similar to Lord Fengyang, also arrived early, stringing up lanterns and festively celebrating.
The merging of the Yin Yang Two Realms was a great event for the Xu Family, seeing the fruition of over six thousand years of planning. How could they not be joyous?
The Xu Family Sect Master, Xu Yinglong, held a grand banquet to entertain guests from all directions. Everyone recited poetry and exchanged toasts.
There were also voices recognizing ancestors. Descendants of the Xu Family lined up neatly, paying respects to the long-deceased Great Ancestors, their voices resonating. These ancestors, already deceased but holding Divine Offices in the underworld, beamed with glory and bestowed various Treasures of the underworld.
Xu Yinglong was overjoyed beyond measure. As the Sect Master of the Xu Family, although not widely known, in his generation the Xu Family reached its peak.
At this moment, a Xu Family disciple hurried over, whispering: "Sect Master, Chen Shi is here."
Xu Yinglong was slightly surprised: "What's he here for?"
Hearing about Chen Shi killing experts at Despair Slope, he felt a chill: "Does he want to bring disaster to my Xu Family?"
"Chen Shi didn't enter the city; he's sitting outside," the Xu Family disciple said.
Xu Yinglong immediately stood up, left the Xu residence, first projecting his Primordial Spirit, looking from afar, to see that indeed, Chen Shi had not entered Lingzhou City but was sitting under a large tree by the roadside outside the city, with a wooden cart under the tree.
A completely black dog without a single stray hair was tying the wooden cart to the tree.
The black dog had several bandages wrapped around its body.
Xu Yinglong shook his head, confirming that he saw the dog tying the cart to the tree.
The big black dog barked at the wooden cart twice, seemingly scolding it not to run around.
"I can actually understand the dog's words!" Xu Yinglong felt alert, sensing something was amiss.
After scolding the wooden cart, the dog pulled a bag out of the cart, holding a Black Iron Stick and walked toward the city with the stick for support.
Meanwhile, Chen Shi continued to sit under the tree with a bright moon hanging high before him and a great sun rotating behind.
Where he sat, Yin Yang Qi evolved into wind, water, thunder, fire, earth, mountains, and swamps, transforming unpredictably.
The Daoist Field surrounding him expanded gradually, extending from a few acres to several hundred acres and continuing to extend outward.
Xu Yinglong's expression grew solemn as he retracted his Primordial Spirit.
Xu She approached from behind, whispering: "Sect Master, what's wrong?"
Xu Yinglong's voice was thick and deep: "Chen Shi is blocking the gate."
Xu She was startled and blurted out: "He's blocking the gate? Blocking my Xu Family's gate? What audacity, does he not value his life?"
His voice immediately drew the attention of many experts from the Xu Family, who glanced over quickly.
Xu She was about to rush out of the city, but Xu Yinglong raised a hand to stop him, shaking his head: "Chen Shi is blocking the gate, not challenging my Xu Family's strength, but our reputation. He is not here to openly challenge my Xu Family. He is very clever. You project your Primordial Spirit."
Following instructions, Xu She projected his Primordial Spirit and looked over, seeing Chen Shi's Daoist Field continuing to expand outward, reaching outside Lingzhou City and about to enter the city.
However, several Void Great Realms hovered above Lingzhou City, with the sun and moon hanging high, blocking his Daoist Field.
The Void Great Realms were themselves Daoist Fields, but of a higher order, being opened from the void. However, compared to Chen Shi's Daoist Field, the Void Great Realms above Lingzhou City seemed somewhat inferior.
