Chen Shi had visited Mirror Lake Villa more than once. The number of coffins here was limited, and each coffin had its owner.

Apart from the coffins belonging to Granny Sha, Chen Yindou, Chen Shi, Xiao Wangsun, and Lady Hua Li, the owners of the other coffins had never shown themselves.

However, in the underworld, above the Yin Spring Sea, people often saw a giant tree hanging upside down, with a giant coffin inverted over the sea. Monsters resembling demon gods flew out from these coffins, seemingly hunting other life forms.

Chen Shi had heard of such things before and had even seen strange people flying out of the giant coffins himself.

He had also sensed the dangerous aura emanating from the people inside the coffins.

"Grandfather once said that the people in these coffins are extremely dangerous. They are so old that they are near death and had to hide in the coffins to prolong their lives."

Chen Shi blinked, thinking, "But why wake them up now?"

At that moment, a voice emerged from a coffin: "Chen Yindou, we agreed back then that if you had a solution, you would wake us up. Have you found a solution now?"

Chen Yindou laughed, "I haven't found it, but my grandson has. Little Ten, unfold the Daoist field."

Chen Shi's mind stirred slightly, and the Daoist field spread out, covering the entire Mirror Lake Villa.

Movements came from the other coffins, and a voice emerged from another coffin: "Strange, the noisy sounds in my ears suddenly disappeared."

"Haha, my evil qi no longer entangles me!"

"I was always muddled, covered in strange hair. I was worried that I would undergo evil transformation, so I hid here. Now this strange hair has disappeared!"

...

Voices emerged one after another from the coffins, chattering happily.

Chen Shi whispered, "Grandfather, who are they?"

"Sanren,"

Chen Yindou said, "Sanren who have the potential to achieve Harmonization. They cultivated to a profound realm, very close to Harmonization, but their evil transformation was severe. When they were young, their qi-blood was vigorous, and they could suppress it, but as they aged, their qi-blood weakened, and they could no longer suppress the trend of evil transformation. After I became a Sanren, I got close to them and received much guidance. As they got older, they found it increasingly difficult to suppress their own evil qi, so we built this Mirror Lake Villa, nurturing them with Pure Yang Qi produced from extreme yin."

Chen Shi felt a slight shock in his heart.

Sanren with the potential for Harmonization?

The Harmonization Chen Yindou referred to was of the new cultivation method. But the new method could only be cultivated to the Mahayana Realm, lacking the Tribulation Crossing and Ascension realms. Even though it added a Divine Embryo, it lacked Tribulation Crossing and Ascension, so how could there be Harmonization?

The True King had modified the old method to create the new method, but since then, there had been no news of anyone achieving Harmonization and becoming immortal with the new method!

The disasters in the Divine Capital were only Demi Immortals, and some were even in a state of evil transformation.

"The new method has been passed down since the True King Era for ten thousand years. Even if it were a cockroach, it should have created a method to achieve immortality by now."

A coffin suddenly opened, and a scholar in light blue clothes, holding a folding fan, walked out, appearing quite refined and elegant. He smiled and said, "We Sanren have long created a method to become immortal, but Harmonization leads to evil transformation. We dare not cultivate to the last step."

He saluted Chen Shi and Chen Yindou, saying, "Dragon Traveling Wanderer greets you, fellow Daoists."

Chen Shi returned the salute.

Chen Yindou said, "Don't be deceived by his gentlemanly demeanor. When he was being put into the coffin, he struggled fiercely, growing out blood and flesh all over, and he shouted for three days and nights without dying. I had to use this long Golden Needle to pierce the coffin and seal his Primordial Spirit and physical body, only then did he stop struggling and shouting."

He gestured with both hands, indicating the Golden Needle's length, roughly four to five feet.

"Chen Yindou, I refined your Golden Needle long ago!"

Dragon Traveling Wanderer admired Chen Shi's Yin Yang Dojo, clicking his tongue in wonder, praising, "Reaching this point in cultivation influences the external nature. If you achieve Harmonization, your Daoist field might repel all evils!"

"Dragon Traveling, you are blowing things out of proportion. Let me take a look!"

Another coffin opened, and out came a peerless beauty. She observed Chen Shi's Daoist field, gazed at the movement of the Sun and Moon, and was momentarily dazed. After a moment, she regained her senses and exclaimed, "If you achieve Harmonization, you will be the True God!"

The third coffin opened, and an elderly man with a small stature emerged, sneering, "Lady Shao always exaggerates... Hey! Kid! Wait, elder, have you reversed fate? You are not only going to become a True God, but you might be mightier than a True God!"

"Let me see!"

A voice emerged from another coffin. The coffin jumped a few times, and then the person inside helplessly said, "Who tied me with a Binding Immortal Rope? Please, remove it!"

Chen Yindou hesitated for a moment, asking, "Mu Daozi, are you sure you are clear-headed?"

"Clear-headed, clear-headed!" the person inside the coffin replied.

Chen Yindou exchanged glances with Dragon Traveling Wanderer, Lady Shao, and others. They quietly surrounded that coffin, each preparing their Primordial Spirit and Daoist Divine Powers, ready to destroy both the coffin and the person inside at the first sign of trouble.

Chen Yindou lit incense, placing a stick of incense into the ground. Incense Fire Qi floated towards the coffin.

Suddenly a Golden Dragon flew out from the coffin, circling around him, transforming into a golden rope wrapped around his waist.

The coffin lid flew up, and a man yawned as he stepped out of the coffin, laughing, "For so many years, I've never felt so refreshed! You don't need to worry. It's true that I underwent an evil transformation, but it was only that one time. Later, didn't I rely on my strong Dao Heart and willpower to recover?"

Chen Shi was surprised. This Mu Daozi could actually stop the evil transformation once it occurred; a truly remarkable individual!

Chen Shi had seen more instances of people being killed during the evil transformation.

Lady Shao sneered, "Back then when you entered the coffin, you underwent another evil transformation."

Mu Daozi's expression changed immediately, "My second evil transformation? How is it that I didn't know?"

Lady Shao replied, "After your evil transformation, we combined our forces to suppress you, and it was Chen's young friend who used the Binding Immortal Rope to bind you, allowing us to seal you and lock you in the coffin."

Mu Daozi clicked his tongue, exclaiming, "What a close call! I didn't know about the second evil transformation! It seems my cultivation isn't complete yet and I can't truly harmonize!"

He looked around, examined Chen Shi's sun and moon operations, with a peculiar expression, and leaned close to Chen Shi, saying, "Did you figure it out? How old are you?"

"Seventeen, or maybe twenty-five," Chen Shi replied honestly.

"You're not being honest!"

Mu Daozi said angrily, "You must be a thousand-year-old monster, that's why you can understand truths we can't! Stand still, let me bow to you and become my master, and teach me your cultivation technique."

He was about to bow when three hands pressed him simultaneously. Lady Shao sneered, "Mu Daozi, you want to become the senior brother? Dream on! I should be the senior brother!"

Dragon Traveling Wanderer laughed, "I was the first to emerge from the coffin, so I am the senior brother! Master above, let the young disciple bow!"

He was about to bow down but was held back by others.

A short-statured elder called Pei Sanren chuckled, "I'm the oldest, I'm the senior brother!"

"I want to be his godson! Who dares to compete with me?" Mu Daozi exclaimed.

Chen Shi was at a loss, advising, "Esteemed elders, we are all wanderers seeking the Dao, why compete over hierarchy? If you want to learn, I will teach you."

Dragon Traveling Wanderer shook his head, "You are Chen Yindou's grandson, Chen Yindou is our junior, we can't take advantage of you. Although we are wanderers, we distinguish between favor and resentment."

Pei Sanren nodded, "That's correct. If we bow to you and become your disciples, learning from you won't be taking advantage of you. As your disciples, it's only natural to learn your skills."

"Being a godfather is also acceptable, a son inheriting his father's skills isn't taking advantage either."

Chen Shi smiled, "You all are my grandfather's seniors, how could I accept you as disciples? However, if you feel burdened, then let's perform the disciple ceremony."

The four exchanged a glance and suddenly bowed together.

Chen Shi calmly accepted the bow, raised his hand to signal them to rise, smiling, "My lineage walks the path of reversing validation against heaven and earth. The great Dao of heaven and earth undergoes evil transformations, so I don't validate heaven and earth; instead, I let heaven and earth validate me. I don't harmonize with the Dao, but let the Dao harmonize with me, thereby influencing nature and altering the heavenly way."

Pei Sanren, Mu Daozi, and the others were shocked upon hearing this.

Lady Shao muttered, "Let the Dao harmonize with me? How to let the Dao harmonize with me?"

Chen Shi wanted to find a place to sit but found the villa was spotlessly clean with nowhere to sit, so he climbed onto his small coffin, sitting cross-legged, and laughed, "Letting the Dao harmonize with me is actually influencing the great Dao of heaven and earth, purifying the evil qi within. I use Yin Yang Change as the foundation and Heaven and Earth Righteous Qi as the basis, evolving all things in heaven and earth, sun, moon, and stars."

His Daoist Field unfolded, and the scenery around gradually changed, the Yin Yang Qi forming mountains, rivers, flowers, trees, sun, moon, and stars.

Sun and moon operated, Yin and Yang divided, with the righteous path of the mortal world and the norms of the underworld operating smoothly without stagnation.

Everyone sensed the surroundings, detecting not the slightest evil qi, and felt deep admiration.

Chen Shi first taught Yin Yang Refining. After explaining Yin Yang Refining, he then moved on to Yin Yang Change, and finally discussed the method to let the great Dao of heaven and earth harmonize with him.

Everyone's expressions grew more serious, Lady Shao quietly raised her hand, hesitantly speaking, "Little Master, could you pause and revisit Yin Yang Refining."

The other three looked embarrassed and each nodded in agreement.

Chen Shi had to revisit Yin Yang Refining, explaining it again, answering their questions, and once they grasped it, he continued.

When they finished discussing Yin Yang Change, two days had passed.

Dragon Traveling Wanderer and the others were still deeply pondering, and Chen Shi, with a dry mouth from speaking, climbed down from the small coffin and said to Chen Yindou, "Grandfather, their talents are all very high, they are exceptional geniuses. After just two days of teaching, they've grasped the basics. In the Heavenly Court, people with such talent are rare."

Chen Yindou snorted, "You are quite bold to accept them as disciples. They are my seniors, by calling you master, what should I call you?"

Chen Shi laughed, "We each speak for ourselves."

Chen Yindou glanced at him, saying, "Do you really want to become the True King?"

Chen Shi restrained his laughter, saying, "Whether I become the True King or not doesn't matter, but this world must change! The world gates have turned into evil spirits, feeding on the blood of the people, we must drive them away to give people a chance to live and breathe! We talisman masters take eliminating evil and dispelling spirits as our duty, as you taught me, grandfather!"

Chen Yindou asked, "What do you plan to do?"

"First, descend to the underworld and remove the Thirteen Families' influence there! The first step is to awaken Little Yama and reclaim the Immortal City! The second step is to extinguish the Yan Family!"
