This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 460: Chapter 324: Soul Differentiation, Possession Manifestation!

“Fake!”

“This must be fake!”

The clay statue blurted out, “How could you have detected me?”

It was only three feet tall.

In front of Xu Yang, it was merely a “dwarf”. At the moment, gripped by the neck by Xu Yang, it was incapable of escaping. As it struggled its feet flailed, its fists banged on Xu Yang’s arm, producing a dull thud as if it was hitting steel.

Instead, his fists were rebounded causing pieces of dirt to scatter.

It stopped its actions, with eyes wide and staring at Xu Yang.

Xu Yang, listening to the system notification in his mind, sunk into deep self-doubt.

Physical Strength +1, that he could understand.

After all, it was a clay statue, impervious to swords and spears, with immense power. Those punches he threw could be compared to an average martial arts Heavenly Being.

But…

What on earth was Tracking +1?

Was this level of ability even worth calling “tracking”?

Gripping the clay statue with one hand, Xu Yang asked, “Have you ever been inside this practice room?”

“Why should I tell you?”

The clay statue sneered, “I, the mighty land deity, once protected the people of a place and received their respect…”

Bang!

Before it managed to finish its sentence, a large hammer appeared in Xu Yang’s left hand.

The handle of the hammer was almost as long as the clay statue itself.

If you include the head of the hammer, it was taller than the statue, especially the head of it was crackling with electric sparks… Upon seeing this, the clay statue quickly changed its tune, “The City God forbids us from entering this practice room.”

“Oh?”

Xu Yang expressed his surprise, “Why?”

Looking at the iron hammer, just three centimeters away from its head, the clay statue retracted its neck, “I woke up too late to know the exact reason… but I heard that it has something to do with the ghost in this practice room and a powerful figure from the Underworld.”

“I see.”

Xu Yang understood.

When he first came to the Silver City Institute of Technology, he encountered an attack of the “grey fog”. Although he was only in the fifth stage of the Qi Refining Realm and simply a naive novice in cultivation, the “Yin Energy Avatar” that Liu Shishi left on him fought back but was crushed by a giant hand in the fog.

It was Wang Defa who stepped in and frightened away the gigantic hand.

By taking into consideration that Wang Defa works as a security guard at the Silver City Institute of Technology…

Xu Yang didn’t believe that Wang Defa worked there simply for the good university life, perhaps he was there because of that City God.

After pondering for a few seconds, Xu Yang hauled up the clay statue and knocked it against the door of the music room.

Thud! Thud! Thud!!!

The clay statue’s head hit against the door, causing loud thumping sounds.

The clay statue screamed, “Stop hitting, stop hitting… Daoist Brother, Master, please stop.”

“Say more nonsense, and I’ll send you to the other side!”

Xu Yang said coldly.

“The evil spirit was frightened, Merit Points +100, Physical Strength +1, Tracking +1.”

Wholeheartedly, the clay statue not only shut its mouth but also its eyes. After all, it was just a statue, how could it be afraid just by hitting a door?

However…

There was still no movement inside the practice room.

At this moment.

In the cluttered corner of the room, a piano stained with faint blood stood silently.

A trembling phantom was on the piano.

This figure was Pang Juan.

She heard the noise outside, dared not to reply, quite puzzled, murmuring, “Master Xu? Impossible… How can Master Xu knock the door so gently?”

“It must be those evil spirits impersonating Master Xu trying to hurt me!”

“Besides, the whole Silver City Institute of Technology has become the domain of the evil spirits, with Master Xu’s abilities… how can he get in here?”

Her condition was peculiar.

Her body fused with the piano, without revealing a trace of her presence.

Outside the door…

Xu Yang knocked on the door a few more times, but there was still no movement from inside, his patience began to wear thin!

“Damn it!”

He violently smashed the clay statue in his hand on the ground. His voice suddenly increased by several decibels as he roared, “Pang Juan, are you there or not? … If you don’t answer, I, Daoist Master, will smash this piano room with a lighting bolt!”

In the piano room.

Pang Juan cheered with joy, flew out of the piano, and shouted, “Master Xu, is that you, Master Xu?”

Bang!

The piano room door was suddenly pushed down.

Xu Yang, holding a big sledgehammer, walked in angrily. After seeing Pang Juan, he asked, “What are you doing? I’ve been knocking for so long and you don’t responded?”

“I thought it was those evil deities mimicking you.”

In her joy to see Xu Yang again, Pang Juan said, “When you said you wanted to smash the piano room, I confirmed that it was you.”

Xu Yang was stunned.

How did she confirm that?

Pan Juan, however, seemed to remember something. Her face suddenly changed: “Xu Yang, run …The noise you made smashing the door must have alerted those evil deities. Once they come, you’re toast.”

Still unmoved, Xu Yang said, “I came in this time just to meet these evil deities … also to fulfill the promise made to you, to get you out.”

“This… ”

Pang Juan didn’t know how strong Xu Yang is now.

But since Xu Yang has already come in, at this point, she asked, “Can you…bring my piano along?”

“Sure.”

Xu Yang looked at Chen Jingzhou and said, “Director Chen, your turn.”

“Huh?”

Chen Jingzhou was left with his mouth open…

Shit!

After all that, is he passing off this ghost to me?

He had seen Pang Juan’s file and knew she had had a tough life. So he went up and picked up Pang Juan’s piano, laughing, “We at the Supernatural Affairs Bureau are all crude men, if a girl like you could play the piano for us during her leisure time, that would be great.”

After picking up the piano, the two men and a ghost left the piano room.

Outside the piano room, the clay statue had disappeared.

Chen Jingzhou looked slightly worried, and said, “Director Xu, not good… the evil deity ran away.”

Pang Juan also shouted, “Xu Yang, run… among the evil deities, there is one terrible guy. If he comes out, we are done for.”

Xu Yang, however, laughed and said, “Don’t panic… I let him run on purpose.”

…

At this moment.

The clay statue had run out of the building and got to the edge of the pit in the playground.

“Too scary!”

“Simply too scary… This human, could he see through my tracking technique?”

He jumped into the pit with a pounce, going straight into the portal.

His surroundings spun around. When he landed again, he was in a strange space-time.

The sky of this dimension was cloaked in a bloody moon. The grey mist filled the sky resembled the sky of the Underworld Palace, while on the horizon, a dilapidated City God Temple was visible. Ghostly figures were faintly discernible outside the City God Temple.

The clay statue ran desperately towards the City God Temple. Along the road, it saw many stone statues of different shapes. Some with eyes closed while others with eyes spinning around.

“City God!”

“City God … It’s terrible!”

The clay statue charged into the City God Temple, kowtowed to the huge statue in the main hall and shouted, “A Daoist Master has come from outside… he’s extremely capable!”

Before he could finish his sentence, the large statue opened its eyes slowly,

Its eyes flickering as it stared at the clay statue and chuckled, “Daoist friend, since you are here, why not show yourself for a while?”

Buzz!

The clay statue quivered for a moment, an odd force rose from him. The next moment, his demeanor changed. He gave a fist salute to the large statue, laughing, “Xu Yang of the Jingming Sect, honored to be in the presence of City God.”

“Soul Differentiation, Manifestation!”

The tall statue said, “I’ve met you before when you were just a novice in Daoism… In just three months, you have reached this stage; could it be that you are the reincarnation of a powerful deity?”
