Chen Shi's Tribulation Body appeared fierce; the Thieving Body was sneaky; the Killing Body was fearsome; the Deceptive Body was suave and polite; the Fire Body had a head full of red hair that fluttered upward.

The Rat Body had furtive eyebrows and eyes, appeared timid, and the Greedy Body was insatiably greedy, while the Transportation Body was mysterious, always acting alone.

They all bore Chen Shi's face, but their physiques varied from fat to thin, tall to short.

The group was gathered together, with only the Desire Body missing.

"We won't wait for him!"

The Tribulation Body Chen Shi looked around, laughed heartily, and said, "This time the master let us out to search for the Great Demon. If we don't do a good job, we might be taken back to be locked in the well again. The situation is quite complicated this time. Thieving Body, you tell us."

The Thieving Body Chen Shi stepped forward and said, "The Demon Suppression Wells in Dachang County are located separately in Han Guang Pavilion to the north, the Daughter Well in the city, and the Dragon King Temple to the west. According to our adoptive mother, this place was once the holiest land of the Outer Dao, and one Demon Suppression Well could not suppress so many Great Demons, so three wells were built."

The Tribulation Body Chen Shi said, "Get to the point!"

The Thieving Body Chen Shi said, "When we arrived, we found that all three Demon Suppression Wells were opened, and empty, without a single Great Demon inside."

The group was shocked, and the Deceptive Body Chen Shi said, "Did someone beat us to it? No, no! Releasing the Great Demons would mean hardly any living beings are left in Dachang County and even the Emperor Province!"

The Fire Body Chen Shi pondered, "Could it be that someone reopened the Demon Suppression Wells and took away those Big Tripod cauldrons without releasing the Great Demons?"

This guess was reasonable, and everyone nodded.

But who would take these cauldrons?

The Thieving Body Chen Shi continued, "The County Magistrate of Dachang County is named Huang Jue, a Golden Immortal. He is a person from the Immortal Court, and has gathered a formidable group of immortals in Dachang County. Tribulation Brother asked me to infiltrate the County Magistrate Mansion to gather information, and I found that there are experts from the Immortal Court, Western Heaven, and the Three Pure Ones Realm there. However, I didn't see those Demon Refining Cauldrons."

Currently, immortal gods live among us, governed by the Heavenly Gods, with immortals and cultivators, as well as mortals, being subjects under their rule. It's not uncommon for immortals to be appointed as officials such as the magistrate.

Under County Magistrate Huang Jue's rule, Dachang County may just be a county in name, but its territory spans millions of miles, and countless large and small countries fall under his governance, necessitating an immortal army to help govern these lands.

This also provides County Magistrate Huang Jue with an opportunity to seize power with his army.

Chen Shi's various dirt bodies all looked toward the Transportation Body.

The Transportation Body was formed by Chen Shi cutting out his malicious thoughts regarding the Sutra of Eternal Freedom when he achieved Golden Immortal status, and combining them with his dirt body, excelling at calculating with Tribulation Techniques.

The Transportation Body Chen Shi soared skyward, looking down upon Dachang County, observing the tribulations in different regions, and also gazing at the celestial stars of the Emperor and Dou Departments, assessing their fortunes.

After a while, he descended and reported, "The Demon Refining Cauldrons are in the hands of Huang Jue and a group of experts from the Immortal Court. There are thirteen experts, including Huang Jue, none of whom are weaker than us. They won't open the Demon Refining Cauldrons here. Most likely, they plan to transport it to the Dou Department. I just observed the fortunes of the gods from the Dou Department. It was unstable, with life and death hard to determine, probably impacted by the aura from the Demon Refining Cauldrons."

The Dou Department is the most powerful military station of the Heavenly Court, from which countless War Gods emerged. Destroying the Dou Department would deplete half of the Heavenly Court's forces!

The Killing Body Chen Shi said, "We should storm the County Magistrate Mansion and wipe out these people!"

The Fire Body enthusiastically said, "Killing Brother slaughters, and I set fire to flatten the County Magistrate Mansion!"

The Greedy Body was trembling with excitement, exclaiming, "The Magistrate must have hoarded countless wealth; even with scouring every inch, we must find them all!"

The Rat Body Chen Shi shivered, shaking his head, "An ordinary county also has two to three thousand immortals as Heavenly Soldiers and Generals. Although we might manage to take them on individually, clashing with a camp's forces would just mean a miserable death. If we can avoid fighting, then we should not..."

The Tribulation Body smiled and said, "Let's break into the County Magistrate Mansion, take down the thirteen experts from the Immortal Court, the Three Pure Ones Realm, and Western Heaven before the main army encircles us, then grab the Demon Refining Cauldrons and leave!"

The Killing Body, Fire Body, Thieving Body, and Greedy Body all stood up, laughing, "Robbery, murder, arson, and treasure snatching! Let's do it!"

The Rat Body trembled, muttering, "We, the eight of us, facing the thirteen experts, might not cut them down but get eliminated instead..."

The Tribulation Body Chen Shi laughed, "Doumu Primordial Monarch is our great-granduncle, always fair and just, but treats us from Golden Turtle Island the best. Neither emotionally nor rationally can we sit idly by while those little Immortal Court brats target her. Don't you agree?"

The Rat Body Chen Shi reluctantly replied, "I'm not saying I won't help the great-granduncle, it's just that we need more deliberation, right?"

"Deliberate be damned!"

The Killing Body Chen Shi shouted with murderous intent, "Speak another word, and I'll take you out first!"

The Rat Body Chen Shi shrank back in fear.

The Tribulation Body Chen Shi raised his hand and said, "Enough! Everyone, don't argue. Let's head to the County Magistrate Mansion this time and kill everyone we encounter! Now, summon the Magical Treasures!"

He bowed, and behind him appeared the Well Demon Realm with an inverted Demon Tree. Under the tree sat Taoist Body Chen Jiuyou, dignified and solemn.

Chen Shi didn't use many Magical Treasures, only a few treasures like the Sword Nurturing Gourd and the Blood Transformation Divine Saber.

Each of them bowed toward the Sword Nurturing Gourd. The 108 Sword Qi within was refined from Xuanhuang Ancestor Qi, extremely precious and rare, surpassing other Magical Treasures by far. Thus, the first thing they thought of was to summon the Sword Nurturing Gourd.

The eight dirt bodies of Chen Shi bowed, but the Sword Nurturing Gourd flew towards the Rat Body.

"You've hit the jackpot!"

The Tribulation Body Chen Shi said enviously, "Carry this gourd well, and don't tarnish the master's prestige! This gourd has slain countless foes!"
