Above the Great Dao

Yu Zhu laughed, "Don't believe it? Let me show you."

She picked up a duck, threw it out of the village, and said with a smile, "Look, the duck will come back just fine."

The duck flew into the Wind Mountain Change, suddenly there was a loud boom, and two mountains crushed the duck flat, the Xun wind blew over, and the duck's bones and flesh dissolved.

"When the wind stops, you can go out and see the duck perfectly fine." Yu Zhu said confidently.

After a moment, the Wind Mountain Change dissipated, Yu Zhu went out to find the duck, however, not even a feather was in sight.

Only then did she realize the danger.

At this time, a gentle breeze blew, the ground outside the village was slowly shifting, paths wound and twisted, like large snakes moving in different directions, earth dragons, presenting a mysterious and unpredictable side.

Qiongyang Ancestor looked toward Yellow Earth Slope, murmuring, "His talent is too high, comprehending Yin Yang, he can actually understand so many transformations. No wonder the Outer Heaven True God bestowed the one and only Innate Dao Embryo to him..."

Chen Tang sought guidance, "Senior Qiongyang, Qiankun Transformation, Wind and Thunder Transformation, Water and Fire Transformation, and Mountain Marsh Transformation, all can be understood, but this Wind Mountain Change, Wind and Fire Transformation, Earth Wind Change, I cannot comprehend."

Qiongyang Ancestor glanced at him, "Why must the Eight Trigrams changes be oppositional?"

Chen Tang asked, "What does that mean?"

Qiongyang Ancestor did not speak, internally feeling smug, "That woman is not as clever as I am."

Chen Shi's speed of understanding increased rapidly, soon grasping many transformations like Wind and Marsh Transformation, Mountain and Water Transformation, Earth Water Change, Thunder Water Transformation, dazzling everyone, with a stance of 'understanding one principle leads to understanding a hundred'!

Qiongyang Ancestor couldn't help but silently sigh, "This talent surpasses even Chen Yindou back in the day."

Granny Sha, who lived not far away in Gangzi Village, also sensed the commotion and arrived early at this place, seeing the various domains blooming around Yellow Earth Slope, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

"Sha Qiutong, you have cultivated the Supreme Trigram Protection Technique, but you probably didn't think of this, there are many areas in this technique you haven't yet pondered." Qiongyang Ancestor's voice came through.

Granny Sha chuckled, "Your Thunderclap Great Power Divine Spell might not be complete either, right?"

Both women exchanged looks, both somewhat surprised, "How is she still so young?"

Qiongyang Ancestor approached, "Is Chen Tang your son?"

Granny Sha showed a look of disdain, spit, "Nonsense! He's your son!"

Qiongyang was surprised, "I thought he was yours, he's so stupid. If you didn't give birth to him, then who did?"

"Even if you gave birth to him, it wouldn't mean he's smart!"

Granny Sha sneered, "I have no relation with Chen Yin, don't drag me into your envy. Old Chen has so many female confidants, I don't know with whom he had him."

Qiongyang eyed her up and down, showing shock, "Your cultivation has progressed quickly, you've refined god, right? In your lifetime, you should be able to open up the Void Great Realm and achieve Returning Void."

Granny Sha smiled, "Thanks to you, I've made full preparations for breaking through to Returning Void, I've prepared the Three-Life Stone. You're twenty-four years older than me, right? You've stopped at the Mahayana Realm, you've reached the top, right? I'll gradually catch up to you, eventually, both of us will be at the Mahayana Realm level."

Qiongyang smiled, "But right now, you're not my match."

Granny Sha smiled softly, "When we're in the underworld, I can personally send you to reincarnate."

At this time, Chen Shi demonstrated the last Ghost God Domain of the Eight Trigrams, without deploying any other Ghost God Domains.

The two stopped bickering, only to see on Yellow Earth Slope, a sun rising slowly from the other side of the hill, illuminating all around, making Huangpo Village as bright as day. As the sun set, another moon rose, hanging in the sky, the moonlight was bright and pure, free of any evil.

On Yellow Earth Slope, the sun rises and the moon sets, the sun sets and the moon rises, the sun's journey, divides the small hill into four seasons, the moon's phases wax and wane, revealing changes.

Everything seemed so natural.

Chen Shi walked down Yellow Earth Slope, returning to the village. Chen Tang was the first to greet him, inquiring, "Did you comprehend Yin Yang Assistance and Spit?"

Chen Shi shook his head, "Not yet. I still can't achieve Yin Yang Assistance and Spit, I can only barely use Yin Yang Refining to protect myself before the natural world."

Chen Tang nodded lightly, encouraging him, "Your realm is still low, you haven't yet encountered higher realms, such as how to refine god, how to return to void, how to cultivate to Mahayana. Refining god, returning void, and Mahayana bring many realizations, deepening the understanding of the Dao. Once you've accumulated enough, everything might come naturally."

Chen Shi praised, "Father, you know so much. If not for you and Black Pot's guidance this time, I couldn't have so quickly comprehended the Ghost God Transformation within the Eight Trigrams."

Chen Tang maintained his composure, "I've eaten a few more years of rice than you, so I've got more experience."

Granny Sha approached, "Little Ten, from the Eight Trigrams, how many kinds of Ghost God Transformations have you comprehended?"

Chen Shi replied, "Sixty-four kinds."

Granny Sha asked in confusion, "Why sixty-four kinds?"

Chen Shi explained, "First, there are the eight transformations of heaven, earth, wind, thunder, water, fire, mountain, marsh. Then there are twenty-eight transformations like Heavenly Wind, Heavenly Mountain, Heavenly Earth, Heavenly Thunder, Heavenly Fire, and Heavenly Marsh."

Granny Sha pondered, "When I and Old Chen explored the relics of the True King Era, we found some ancient records, saying the Eight Trigrams are divided into Innate and Acquired. Innately, they are Eight Trigrams, while the Acquired are Sixty-four Trigrams. Your thirty-six transformations clearly do not fit the sixty-four acquired transformations."

Chen Shi thought for a moment, brightened his eyes, and laughed, "Got it! There is Yin Yang, so there can also be Yang Yin. Heavenly Wind Transformation can also be Wind Heaven Transformation, the transition from heaven to wind and from wind to heaven, have completely different effects. By this analogy, Heavenly Mountain Transformation corresponds to Mountain Heaven Transformation, Heavenly Fire Transformation corresponds to Fire Heaven Transformation. In this way, there are fifty-six transformations. Adding the eight transformations of heaven, earth, wind, and thunder, there are sixty-four Ghost God Domains."

Granny Sha sighed, "You've already grasped the essence of this cultivation technique, I am no match for you."

She felt a bit dejected, Creation Little Five was taught by her, and so was Chen Shi, both of them surpassed their master in understanding the Supreme Trigram Protection Technique.

Granny Sha glanced at Chen Tang, feeling slightly comforted, "I also taught A-Tang, he hasn't comprehended as much, not even as much as me."

The next morning, a man dressed as a servant arrived at Huangpo Village, asking to see Top Scorer Chen.

Chen Tang said to Chen Shi, "It's that person who often spies on you, we've been watching him for a long time."

When Chen Shi saw the visitor, he introduced himself as Yang, saying he was Yang Bi's retainer, "My young master wishes to invite you to the Upper Realm to fulfill the agreement set at that time."

Chen Shi asked, "Has Yang Bi already achieved the Unification Realm?"

The retainer replied, "My young master has been remarkably intelligent since childhood, managing the affairs under the governance ability of the Upper Realm Ancestors with rarely any time for cultivation. This time, to battle with the Top Scorer Sir, he secluded himself to train. Upon emerging, he has achieved the Unification Realm. Having isolated himself in the Unification Realm for a hundred days, consulting the old ancestors, his cultivation now is unfathomable."

Chen Shi smiled, "Yang Bi seems very dedicated to our battle."

The retainer said, "I've never seen my young master so dedicated. My young master ordered me to monitor the surroundings of Huangpo Village, to report all achievements of the Top Scorer Sir truthfully. My young master feels deep pressure every time he hears about the Top Scorer Sir's progress, not daring to challenge you. Until today, he has made up his mind to fulfill the initial agreement."

Chen Shi was quite surprised, having comprehended the Ghost God Domains of the Sixty-four Trigrams yesterday, which caused quite a stir, the retainer must have reported this to Yang Bi. Yang Bi, knowing his cultivation and strength had greatly increased, still intends to challenge him. Could it be Yang Bi is confident in surpassing him?

"I already thought I was invincible at the Unification Realm, how can he be so assured of victory?"

Chen Shi raised his eyebrows, could the Upper Realm's heritage really be so formidable?

"When can we set off?" he inquired.

The retainer bowed and said, "Anytime."

Chen Shi informed Chen Tang of this matter, Chen Tang's heart tightened, and he said solemnly, "Be cautious of others, I will accompany you!"
