Chapter 244: Chapter 130 This is simple! _2

He was exceptionally astute. What others saw was Chen Shi cracking the talisman array, and indeed, Chen Shi appeared to be breaking it, as every talisman he touched often became silent, no longer revealing its presence. However, Li Tianqing saw something else; Chen Shi was repairing those damaged talismans.

Chen Shi moved his pen among the glow of those talismans, and as the light vanished, he took the vermillion back into the talisman, filling in the missing parts!

"Why does Little Ten have to do this?"

He didn’t expose it but followed Chen Shi step by step, his heart quietly anxious.

"With so many experts from the Thirteen Families, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to deceive them. If someone sees through Little Ten’s methods, then it would be terrible!"

The people of the Thirteen Families arrived one after another, entering the Stone Rock Lady’s temple, with more than a dozen Divine Descent Realm and Refining Void Realm powerhouses.

Every aura emitted by these powerhouses, even the slightest wisp, if it acted upon him and Chen Shi, could crush them to bits!

Li Tianqing’s face remained calm without showing any abnormality, continuing to let Chen Shi repair the damaged talismans.

The powerhouses of the Thirteen Families arrived in front of the great hall, greeting each other warmly, and many made light-hearted jokes about Li Xiaozheng, with cheerful laughter coming from outside the hall.

Previously, the Great Families fought each other, but now, because of Li Xiaozheng’s affair, they transformed strife into harmony, uniting with one heart to jointly amplify their cultivation, countering the petrification from Stone Ji’s Head.

Chen Shi felt the speed of his own petrification greatly slowed down and was slightly relieved.

"Is the talisman array left by Grandfather in this great hall really the place suppressing Creation Little Five?"

His gaze flickered, both repairing the damaged talismans and observing his surroundings, "If it’s the place suppressing Creation Little Five, then Grandfather should have left the Fu Shen Tianji."

According to the Creation Treasure Book, Grandfather used thirty-two Fu Shen Tianji at Qianyang Mountain to suppress Creation Little Five.

Thirty-two Fu Shen Tianji would certainly remain at the place of suppression!

But he searched around and still did not see any talisman of the Fu Shen Tianji.

The Fu Shen Tianji was a First Grade Creation Talisman, and although Chen Shi could not collect the materials to make the Fu Shen Tianji, he would not mistake such talismans if there were any.

Many from the Thirteen Families were visiting this temple for the first time, looking around curiously and discussing it in amazement. Indeed, this stone temple was unique, built in the center of a ship, enjoying offerings, and having stood for thousands of years without collapse. Furthermore, the deity worshiped inside the temple was none other than a fragmentary stone statue’s head. They were worldly and knowledgeable, but even they had never seen such a scene before.

Jiang Pingyun, the Fishing Elder of the Jiang Family, cast his eyes on Chen Shi, his expression changing slightly, obviously recognizing Chen Shi. He remarked with an odd look, "Impressive talisman skills, truly worthy of Child Scholar. Xiaozheng is not without merit to have obtained Child Scholar’s help in breaking the seal."

Others who heard the words "Child Scholar" had their faces change instantly, and their gazes landed on Chen Shi.

The top Scholar in fifty provinces!

The unparalleled Innate Dao Embryo!

Dead ten years ago, resurrected two years earlier!

These facts could not help but capture everyone’s attention.

"To be summoned by Xiaozheng to break the seals, could the rumor be true?"

Fei Qiqi laughed, "The West Capital Butcher must truly be dead; otherwise, why would his grandson be coerced to come out and break the seals he left behind?"

True to her reputation as sharp-tongued Fei Qiqi, these words sparked different thoughts among many, their eyes on Chen Shi burning with intensity.

"He harbors the secret of Water and Fire Refining..." someone murmured.

Li Xiaozheng coughed softly, speaking quietly, "Gentlemen are my seniors; please do not disturb Child Scholar from breaking the seal."

Catching on, the crowd stopped discussing Chen Shi and shifted their conversation to the giant stone beauty’s head.

"Is the Stone Ji’s Head enshrined on the ship really the head of Stone Rock Lady?"

Someone asked, "Could it be that during the migration to West Bull New Continent, the True King brought Stone Rock Lady’s head from Divine Continent to New Continent?"

Summer Justice was the most ancient and knew many secrets not known to others, "I have heard of this matter. It’s said that Stone Rock Lady was a defeated Evil God between the Shang and Zhou dynasties, shattered to pieces and scattered across various places. After West Bull New Continent was discovered, the ancestors migrated there, and for some reason, this Evil God’s head also appeared on the ship—stranger than an Evil Spirit—causing quite a turmoil. Later, it was suppressed by the True King, and then it vanished. Unexpectedly, the True King placed it here."

Gu Haoshi of the Gu Family, a Refining Void Realm clan elder, stroked his beard, "May I ask Justice, was Stone Ji’s Head brought onto the Treasure Ship by someone, or did it sneak aboard on its own?"

Upon hearing this, the crowd was startled.

Yan Jishi stared at Stone Ji’s Head, saying solemnly, "If Stone Ji’s Head was brought onto the Treasure Ship by someone, that’s one thing; it’s just someone intending to use the Evil God’s head against the Evil Spirit. But if Stone Ji’s Head boarded the ship on its own, hiding its presence, then the purpose of its coming to West Bull New Continent might be..."

He hesitated for a moment but didn’t continue.

Xu Changsheng’s Primordial Spirit spoke, "Establish the Dao anew, remodel the True Body!"

No one responded.

The subject was taboo, easily drawing the surveillance of Heaven Listeners.

Chen Shi, together with Li Tianqing and Black Pot, had already delved deep into the Talisman Array, seeming only two steps away from Stone Ji’s Head.

Even the composed Chen Shi couldn’t help his heart from pounding violently.

He steadied his mind, suppressing his heartbeat, but it remained rapid.

At that moment, Yang Shuo, an elder of the Yang family, showed a puzzled look and said, "Child Scholar, your unraveling of the talisman formation seems somewhat amiss. This old one sees your brushwork, and it doesn’t seem like..."

The old man had not finished speaking when his expression abruptly changed, and without a word, he stepped into the array, exclaiming, "Dare to toy with us!"

Before his words fell, Chen Shi’s hand, holding the vermillion pen, trembled, the tip flicking upwards from beneath. All previously quietened talismans now rose up, thousands of them twinkling with vermillion glow in the golden light, becoming immensely dangerous.

Yang Shuo ground to a halt, his face trembling and slightly twisted, as he watched the talismans rise around him!

In that instant, the hall fell into sudden silence.

The next moment, a strange sound came through the hall. It was the whispers of Ancient Gods, the voices of primordial divine spirits recorded in fu characters, accompanied by the chanting of countless beings reciting Divine Names, as if transported to a sacred ground where ancient gods descended!

In a flash, brilliant radiance burst forth from the great hall!

Within the light, Yang Shuo, the Divine Descent Realm powerhouse from the Yang family, appeared like an Evil Spirit suppressed by the gods, incinerated to ash!

It was the Talisman Array left by Chen Shi’s grandfather, activated by Chen Shi’s stroke, which obliterated a Divine Descent Realm strongman!

At the same time, Chen Shi, without explanation, grabbed Li Tianqing, taking Black Pot with him, and dashed forward. At this moment, the little temple behind his head emerged, shining towards the altar and the Stone Ji’s Head in front!

"Whoosh—"

The temple gate radiated brightly, shining once on the Stone Ji’s Head, and the stone head disappeared into thin air.

Beside Chen Shi, a plump baby with a chubby head appeared, dressed in a red bib embroidered with a pair of carps, looking around puzzled.

In Chen Shi’s little temple, atop the altar, a beautiful stone head emerged.

The stone head opened its eyes and spoke, "Who dares disturb my peace? Wait a moment, your temple..."

The Stone Ji’s Head’s expression changed abruptly, "Dare I ask, Envoy, what are your orders?"

Chen Shi grabbed the big chubby baby by the bib, tossed it onto Black Pot’s back, and shouted, "Can you get us out?"

"That’s simple!"

The Stone Ji’s Head said, "Envoy, I’ve lost my True Body, let me possess one for a moment!"

Before Chen Shi could reply, his vision blurred suddenly, and he found himself on the altar in the small temple.

He hurriedly jumped down from the altar and looked outside. He saw "himself" chanting an unknown language. Instantly, the roof of the Stone Rock Lady’s temple shattered, and magnificent Golden Armored Gods poked their heads out, striking in all directions, slaying the experts of the Thirteen Families into disarray!

A golden hand reached down, seizing Li Tianqing and Black Pot, and Chen Shi "himself" also leaped onto the golden hand.

The Golden Armored God withdrew its hand, the sky closed, and just as they were about to be extricated, Stone Ji’s voice came through, "Envoy, the mana I’ve accumulated for six thousand years has been exhausted, I’ll sleep for a while!"

Chen Shi realized he was back in his own body, seeing all the Golden Armored Gods burst apart, and the tearing in the sky closing itself.

"Tianqing, Black Pot, Talismans!"

Chen Shi yelled, activating the Armored Horse Talisman and Godspeed Talisman on his legs in unison, with Li Tianqing also activating the Divine Talismans on his legs. Both of them channeled their Golden Cores, stepped on the breeze, and flew through the air, rushing along the roads below with a whoosh.

The pair only heard a whistling sound as the dog, carrying the big-headed baby, shot away like lightning, zooming past them.

The two stared after them, desperately chasing but finding themselves increasingly distanced from the dog.
