Chapter 702: Chapter 313 Brain Damage_3

"What happened to my house?"

From outside came Chen Tang’s enraged voice, "What happened to my home? Forsaken by the heavens? My mountain! My phoenix tree! My fish!"

Without thinking, Chen Shi stuffed the piece of paper and Liu Eunuch’s notes into his bosom and slipped out.

Black Pot kept his head down and hurriedly followed him.

"My study!"

Came Chen Tang’s trembling voice, "The unique ancient books I’ve painstakingly collected for over a decade! I was only out for half a day..."

Chen Shi quickened his pace to rush outside, followed by Chen Tang’s furious voice: "Rebellious child, face your death! Don’t think you can escape——"

In utter panic, Chen Shi dashed outward, shouting: "Black Pot, save me!"

Black Pot sighed, and a gust of ghostly wind howled, sweeping both man and dog into the underworld.

Chen Shi leapt onto the rapidly enlarging dog’s back, and Black Pot sprinted wildly, with lightning and thunder flashing behind them. The enraged Chen Tang breached the Yin Yang Two Realms, extending his massive head from the Mortal World, looking around, calling: "Rebellious child, today I will teach you the meaning of filial piety!"

"Black Pot, run faster!"

Chen Shi urged the dog to gallop away at top speed, escaping as quickly as possible.

In the underworld, before the colossal Black Iron Pillar, Zhuang Wujiu, with the help of tens of thousands of Heaven Listeners, activated the runic markings on the surface of this immense object one by one, its divine light illuminating the heavens and earth, with threads of its power leaking out, destabilizing the underworld.

Suddenly, Zhuang Wujiu’s face changed slightly, and with a "wa" sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

The runic markings on the Iron Pillar’s surface quickly dimmed, the backlash struck, and in an instant, the Heaven Listeners exploded one after another, transforming into clouds of blood mist!

In a fleeting moment, more than half of the Heaven Listeners were dead, but they finally absorbed the backlash.

Guang Xiao Venerable Lord was also shaken, his body swaying slightly, but he disregarded his own safety and hurried forward to help Zhuang Wujiu.

"I’m fine."

Zhuang Wujiu raised his hand to stop him, looking at the enormously thick Black Iron Pillar, gazing upwards, seeing only its insertion into the leaden sky of the underworld, yet unable to see its top.

"I still underestimated this treasure, I wasn’t fully prepared, the runes on its surface I haven’t fully deciphered."

Zhuang Wujiu turned, flying out of the sky, his voice lingering, "Let’s rest a few days, gather more Heaven Listeners and Venerable Kings and Lords, and then retrieve this treasure!"

Guang Xiao Venerable Lord complied, leading the remaining Heaven Listeners away.

Not long after they left, Chen Shi, fleeing Chen Tang’s pursuit, arrived at this location.

"Zhuang Wujiu and Guang Xiao Venerable Lord are not here?"

He paused slightly, calling Black Pot to a stop, saying, "My father isn’t chasing after me anymore, we don’t need to run."

Black Pot stopped.

A flash of Thunder Light appeared beneath Chen Shi’s feet, and in a blink, he was beside the massive Iron Pillar.

The Iron Pillar was engraved with intricate patterns, twisting and carved, resembling dragons and snakes in motion.

Chen Shi stepped onto a path of Thunder Light, ascending higher and higher, suddenly spotting a familiar runic marking, precisely corresponding to the Fourth New Talisman on that piece of paper!

Chen Shi’s heart stirred slightly, as if driven by an unseen force, he reached out, pressing his hand against the colossal, entirely black pillar.

Within him, the Circulation Fire Realm suddenly spread, the five Innate Qi transformed into Five Thunders Shock, flying out from the Circulation Fire Realm, like five large multi-colored dragons, injected into the Iron Pillar’s runic markings, echoing along the engravings, extending in all directions!

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, all the runic markings on the Iron Pillar’s surface were lit up, the brilliant light piercing through the cloudy sky!

Chen Shi could not open his eyes under the divine light’s glare, and suddenly the dazzling divine light vanished, with a Black Iron Stick appearing quietly floating before him.

At this moment, Zhuang Wujiu had just flown out of the underworld, sensed the violent tremor of the underworld, hurriedly turned his head to look, and his body turned cold.

The scene revealed whiteness filling the heavens and earth, the eternally existing giant pillar, vanished without a trace!
