Xu Henshui sighed, waved his hand, and signaled for the Xu Family members to carry him away.
"Chen, don't get too arrogant! Let me test you!"
Another Ghost God of the Xu Family stepped forward, with the Yin Yang Qi around him forming the illusion of the Sun and Moon. He sat down in front of Chen Shi, smiling, "Huaisu was a latecomer, only starting to cultivate the Yin Yang Two Sceneries Map at the Unification Realm, whereas I have been practicing since childhood. As for proficiency in Yin Yang Qi, no one surpasses me!"
After a while, the Ghost God's Golden Body dimmed, the glow behind his head became obscure, his extraordinary power rapidly dissipated, and his Golden Body began to disintegrate, crying out: "This doesn't make sense, this doesn't make sense!"
Xu Henshui sighed again, waved his hand, and said, "Take him away."
Black Pot observed for a long time, seeing that the Xu Family was clearly powerful, with a vast force and many experts, yet they followed the rules, stepping forward one by one to engage in a Dao discussion with Chen Shi, without overpowering him. As a result, he couldn't help but have some admiration for this ancient family.
However, each Xu Family member who went up went mad; even if they didn't, their Dao Heart was greatly damaged, which made Black Pot uneasy, wondering how long the gentlemanly conduct of the Xu Family could last.
Black Pot looked at the Xu Family expert beside him, who understood and said, "Nearby Lingzhou, it seems a mountain has suddenly appeared. I heard from an ancestor yesterday that a mountain had grown beside him. Predecessor Pot, I'll ask around for you."
Black Pot nodded slightly and looked towards another person.
The Xu Family cultivators around it were very enthusiastic, proactively helping it inquire.
The Ghost Gods of the Xu Family came from all parts of the underworld, and Lingzhou was Xu Family's territory. Thus, they were well aware of whether there were newly emerged mountains or ancient temples within their jurisdiction.
In the span of half a day, Black Pot had identified as many as nine new mountains and ancient temples within Lingzhou territory.
It hastily recorded them, marking them on the Geographical Map.
Its stomach growled with hunger, so it returned to the city to fill up at the Xu Family's banquet before coming back to continue its observation.
On the second day, the Xu Family still couldn't break Chen Shi's Daoist Field.
On the third day, Chen Shi sat there, and occasionally one or two Xu Family members would go to challenge him, but all met with failure.
On the fourth day, only one person challenged Chen Shi.
On the fifth day, the Xu Family fell into silence, and no one spoke of breaking Chen Shi's Daoist Field. They returned to Lingzhou City, dejection and gloom written on all their faces.
Days six, seven, eight, nine...
The atmosphere grew increasingly oppressive and despairing.
Black Pot went to the Xu Family's kitchen, cooked itself a few dishes, and while eating, worried in silence. This silence might lead the Xu Family to take extreme measures.
It had only eaten to eighty percent fullness when a young voice shouted: "I'll break him! Even if my Yin Yang Qi Daoist Practice isn't as good as his, maybe I could get lucky!"
He rushed out of Lingzhou City.
More Xu Family youths were inspired by him, following him out, shouting: "Well said! How would we know if we don't try?"
Black Pot followed them out, and soon after, these youths, whether driven mad, foolish, crazed, or coughing up blood, all without exception, returned in utter defeat.
The Xu Family sank deeper into despair.
Two days later, within the Xu Family, someone discussed: "In this chaotic world, why do we need to maintain gentlemanly behavior? Why not rush out and chop Chen to death with chaotic blades? Kill him, and as long as we don't speak of it, and eliminate all nearby Ghost Gods, Ghost Monsters, and Ghosts, who would know of this?"
"I've thought the same for a while!"
They each secretly carried a Magical Treasure out of the city, each with one item.
The Xu Family had many Magical Treasures, and these treasures had long been venerated with incense, powerful beyond compare.
However, how could their movements escape the notice of the Xu Family's ancestors? These ancestors saw their actions but did not intervene.
They swiftly arrived beneath the Furong Tree, only to find it empty, with neither Chen Shi nor the wooden cart anywhere in sight.
Their faces fell into dejection, spirits shattered, each returning to the city.
Chen Shi had blocked Lingzhou City for twelve days and finally left.
The face of the Xu Family, I'm afraid it has been utterly lost, and from now on, even little ghosts would know, Chen Shi blocked the gate in Lingzhou for twelve days, and the Xu Family was helpless.
At this moment, a gale of Yin wind swept by, lifting countless branches and fallen leaves from the ground, as several Ghost Gods silently flew past.
The Black Pot sat upon the wooden cart, repeatedly urging the cart to go faster, faster.
It was exceedingly anxious inside, thinking to itself: "The Xu Family has experienced mockery, doubt, belief, fear, despair, and madness, now they have reached the brink of insanity, the next step is abandoning moral restraint, intending to kill and silence."
Chen Shi is still in Enlightenment, obviously unable to make any decisions, thus the Black Pot promptly decided, using its powerful domain to conceal everyone, quietly leaving the city, taking Chen Shi and the wooden cart out of Lingzhou.
The wooden cart raced away, moving faster and faster.
Suddenly, the Black Pot's ears perked up, cautiously looking back, only to see Yin wind and gloom speeding towards them.
In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky and blocked the Moon.
The sky seemed ready to collapse, as a gigantic face peered down from the dark clouds, followed by rolling Yin Thunder, countless Yin Thunder transformed into a colossal hand spanning dozens of acres, descending from the sky, reaching for the wooden cart!
The Black Pot leaped from the cart, sprinting into the air, in a few strides revealing its mountain-sized True Body, running on Demon Fire towards the sky, biting down, and with a crunch, the Yin Thunder hand was swallowed into its belly, instantly refined, turning into nutrients nourishing its Physical Body.
It plunged into the dark clouds, within the clouds was a Ghost God of the Xu Family, manipulating the second Spell.
The Black Pot was extremely fast and intimidating, the Xu Family's Ghost God immediately retreated while casting a spell, trying to widen the distance, but was shaken by the Black Pot's roar, leaving its Primordial Spirit in turmoil, followed by a claw strike, sending it plummeting from the clouds.
Below, two additional Ghost Gods from the Xu Family approached the wooden cart, closing in from the left and right, heading directly for Chen Shi.
The Black Pot swooped down from the skies, spewing blazing Demon Fire from its mouth, transforming into a long fire Dragon, then splitting into nine parts, attacking the two Ghost Gods.
The two Ghost Gods of the Xu Family were utterly fearless, one unleashed the Yin Yang Two Sceneries Map, refining four Dragons with this power, the other deployed Xuanhuang Hundred Changes, battling five Demon Dragons. Their strength was formidable, Divine Power approaching Mahayana, within several moves, they slew the fire Dragons.
Meanwhile, the Black Pot caught up with the falling Ghost God, biting forcefully, smashing down, cracking its Golden Body, then spewed Demon Fire, refining it to ash, and swiftly dashed towards the two Xu Family Ghost Gods.
It ran wildly, while contracting its Physical Body, its two legs stood upright, still towering hundreds of feet tall, not inferior to the two Divines.
It reached out grasping, subtly clutching, as the Circulation Fire Realm erupted, transforming into a Thunder Fire Wheel, crackling.
From within the speeding wooden cart, the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler flew with a swoosh, landing precisely in its gripping hand.
The Circulation Fire Realm rotated along the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler, illuminating various patterns on the iron rod, making it taller than itself.
Two Ghost Gods, a black dog, on this boundless plain, rolling and battling, colliding various Divine Powers, Skills, and Magical Treasures, ahead was the speeding wooden cart, clouds billowing under its wheels.
"Bang!"
The Black Pot leaped and swung the rod, caving in the head of the Ghost God on the left, turned around wielding the rod, pounding on the back of the Ghost God's head, sidestepping and propelling the rod, striking beneath the Ghost God, instantly dispersing its Divine Power.
The other Ghost God, seeing the dire situation, immediately flew away.
The Black Pot pushed the rod.
Boom!
The enlarged Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler became exceedingly immense, struck into the back of the fleeing Ghost God, causing it to spew Divine Fire from its eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
The Black Pot pushed the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler fiercely, crushing the Ghost God, charging a thousand miles, crashing into a towering mountain, shattering the Ghost God's Golden Body.
The Black Pot withdrew the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler, revealing the True Body of Huo Dou, sprinted madly, leaping into the air upon catching the wooden cart, transforming into the size of an ordinary black dog, landing on the cart.
It placed the Heaven Measuring Iron Ruler down, sat cross-legged, gazed at the Geographical Map, observing the surrounding geography, correcting the cart's direction.
At that moment, Chen Shi, who followed behind the cart, suddenly awoke from Enlightenment, the Yin Yang Dojo revolving around him settled peacefully.
The Black Pot relaxed, storing away the Geographical Map.
The wooden cart was already close to the first ancient temple within Lingzhou territory. It thought silently.
