Huangfu Jun's eyes twitched violently, and his clothes fluttered noisily, drifting backward.

Facing Chen Shi as he approached, his energy felt obstructed, and he even had the thought of retreating to avoid confronting him head-on!

When Chen Shi emerged from the Well Demon Realm, the sense of oppression was overpowering.

It wasn't until then that he realized the Chen Jiuyou he had dealt with was merely Chen Shi's Taoist Body, not Chen Shi's true self.

Yet the power of this Taoist Body was exceptionally strong, able to withstand his attack. Although it was injured, it still managed to retreat intact.

He had underestimated Chen Shi's strength, and now, truly facing Chen Shi, he finally understood the immense pressure.

Chen Shi's eight clones infiltrated Dacang County Government, advancing unstoppably to eliminate the enemy's leaders as easily as reaching into a pocket.

From the Three Pure Ones Realm, the Immortal Court, and Western Heaven, the disciples sent this time were all selectively chosen experts. Among Golden Immortals, they might not claim the top spots, but they were certainly outstanding. Yet even these experts, when faced with Chen Shi's clones and incarnations, often lost more than they won and were frequently slain within a few encounters!

Only when faced with an entity adept at manipulating tribulations did they have a guaranteed victory over these clones and incarnations.

By reinforcing himself with tribulations, he could easily break through the Daoist skills of these clones and incarnations.

But when confronting Chen Shi's True Body, he felt as if he was being overshadowed!

This situation was unprecedented!

He never had this feeling facing other young immortals.

Even when facing a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he rarely felt this way.

Only in facing those high and mighty Daluo Golden Immortals and complete-form Great Demons did he feel such suffocating pressure.

Being overwhelmed in terms of momentum and having his Dao Heart crushed was a humiliation to him.

He had extreme confidence in his Daoist Skill, but now the thought arose within him that perhaps his skills might not be enough to handle the opponent!

"You wanted to see me?"

Chen Shi's voice came through, and Huangfu Jun's vision blurred as phenomena suddenly manifested, making him feel as if he were in the Dark Sea, with countless Demon Kings controlling the Great Dao of the Dark Sea hidden in the darkness, questioning him.

Huangfu Jun stirred his energy, forcefully freeing himself from the oppression brought by Chen Shi's voice, and without answering his question, he spoke, "Heavenly King Chen..."

His voice was extremely hoarse, harsh to his own ears, which alarmed him, realizing just how tense he had become under Chen Shi's pressure, making his throat dry and unable to speak.

Huangfu Jun elevated his cultivation to the extreme to escape Chen Shi's oppression, his gaze falling on Chen Shi's nine dirt bodies, speaking solemnly, "These gentlemen are quite impressive. Could they be the incarnations of Heavenly King Chen? They seem somewhat similar to the Western Heaven's self-liberation method. I didn't expect Heavenly King Chen, like King Li, to have a connection with the Western Heaven."

He

Chen Shi asked doubtfully, "Does the Western Heaven have a method similar to mine?"

Huangfu Jun replied seriously, "The Western Heaven possesses an Ancient Buddha who cultivates the Other Transformation Heaven Great Method, without the need for reincarnation, merging his thoughts into mortal bodies, creating one hundred and eighty thousand incarnations. These mortals have their own emotions, joys, sorrows, loves, and hates, their own marriages and children, and their own lives.

"Throughout their lives, they consider themselves complete, independent individuals, only realizing, upon death and the return of their thoughts to the Ancient Buddha, that they are but a thought of the Ancient Buddha. The Ancient Buddha experiences life through them, gaining insights to further their breakthroughs. This transformative method is far superior and more exquisite than your clones! Heavenly King Chen, you likely did not receive the true teachings."

Chen Shi's expression darkened.

His method indeed differed from the Other Transformation Heaven Great Method.

His method was the body outside the body, evolved in conjunction with the Undying Immortal Method. The nine clones were impurities expelled during his time in the Golden Immortal Realm, tainted by the Undying Immortal Method, transforming into undead creatures.

Fearing these undead creatures might harm the human world, he refined them into incarnations.

After witnessing the close relationship between Chen Yindou and Creation Little Five in the underground Green Palace, Chen Shi attempted to transfer the negative human traits affecting his judgment to these nine clones, hence their names of Greed, Lust, Calamity, Rat, and so on.

These dirt bodies were both independent entities and parts of him, their experiences vivid to him, akin to a collection of many Chen Shis. This was indeed somewhat similar to the Other Transformation Heaven Great Method.

However, the transformation method mentioned by Huangfu Jun and his dirt body method had fundamental differences.

"All affectionate reunions are inherently unstable, not enduring long. To see through the impermanence of affection and use such a base method, occupying a mortal's life, merely to enhance oneself."

Chen Shi, brimming with killing intent, said coldly, "That Ancient Buddha has already entered the Demon Path. Such a method should be eradicated!"

Huangfu Jun shook his head, "Your statement is biased. The Other Transformation is a form of Outer Dao. The Western Heaven conquers the transformative world of the Dark Sea, subduing the Six Desire Heavenly Demon, which surrenders to the Western Heaven and turns into Heavenly Beings. Through studying the Dao of Transformation, the Western Heaven has achieved success. Some Ancient Buddhas even control entire worlds with their thoughts, where millions of beings live and die, and through reincarnation, they gather insights. This kind of method surpasses your incarnations by countless times!"

"Evil demons and Outer Dao, such methods should be eradicated. They must be destroyed!"

Chen Shi resolutely declared, "One day, I will storm the Western Heaven and drag those old Buddhas and Ancient Buddhas to the Immortal Slaying Stage for public execution!"

Huangfu Jun glanced at Chen Shi's murderous clone, puzzled, did he, when slaying his thoughts, mistakenly eradicate the good and leave the wicked?

Chen Shi's murderous clone's malevolence paled compared to Chen Shi's true self!

Contrary to Chen Shi, Chen Shi's murderous clone seemed much more benevolent.

Yet, due to Chen Shi's fierce words, he turned his attempt to suppress Chen Shi's morale into nothing.
