The Karma Red Lotus, carrying several magical treasures from the Sea of Blood, charged forward with the ferocity of a mad bull.
Boom!
The Karma Red Lotus, along with a host of other magical treasures, collided with the still unstable World-Destroying Black Lotus, immediately pushing it back.
Under such impact, the World-Destroying Black Lotus retreated again, trembling incessantly.
Wutian, situated within the World-Destroying Black Lotus, felt a dizzying sensation and quickly steadied his mind, manipulating incantations to stabilize the World-Destroying Black Lotus.
However, he forgot that the Heaven-Measuring Ruler and other magical treasures were waiting behind him.
The Heaven-Measuring Ruler showed no mercy, letting out a shout and, along with its accompanying lesser treasures, slammed fiercely into the World-Destroying Black Lotus.
Alas, the World-Destroying Black Lotus, not yet having come to a stop, was sent flying again.
But this time, the Heaven-Measuring Ruler and its companions misjudged their force, causing the World-Destroying Black Lotus to veer off course, much to the displeasure of the waiting, eager magical treasures.
"Heaven-Measuring Ruler, don't just have fun by yourself!"
"Exactly! You're not including us, what's the plan?"
"Damn it, World-Destroying Black Lotus, don't go! Come back obediently!"
The World-Destroying Black Lotus had no intention of returning obediently. Moreover, Wutian, within it, felt a sense of impending doom and immediately intended to seize this opportunity of deviation to escape.
However, the magical treasures had now spread out, encircling the World-Destroying Black Lotus and Wutian. Even if they didn't directly confront the Karma Red Lotus, they were still inescapable.
Boom!
With a deafening sound, the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, along with its accompanying lesser treasures, finally found an opportunity and rammed the World-Destroying Black Lotus, which was desperately trying to leave, back into place.
"Good sister! Well passed this time, witness my divine might!"
The Ruyi Jingu Bang roared, immediately charging forward with the lesser treasures around it, leaving the World-Destroying Black Lotus with no chance to stabilize.
Thus, the World-Destroying Black Lotus found itself surrounded by magical treasures, constantly being battered and tossed about, with no chance to rest.
Wutian, though still unharmed within the World-Destroying Black Lotus, was buffeted about like a piece of willow down, his expression growing increasingly grim, clearly suffering greatly.
"Xu Fang! Minghe! Do you dare fight honorably? Why resort to such despicable tactics? If you have the guts... Ahhhh..."
Wutian began to curse but was quickly cut short as he was once again struck by a barrage of magical treasures.
"Honorably? If you have the guts, come out instead of hiding inside the World-Destroying Black Lotus!"
Ancestor Minghe shouted back, though it was unclear if the dazed Wutian could hear him.
Ancestor Minghe paid it no mind and looked at Xu Fang with delight.
"Fellow Daoist Xu Fang, your method is truly brilliant! It's like..."
Ancestor Minghe searched for words to describe it, but his vocabulary failed him. After all, this tactic of encircling and battering with magical treasures was something he had never witnessed before.
Seeing this, Xu Fang, being understanding, finished his sentence.
"It's like bumper cars. Just imagine the collisions between vehicles."
Knowing that Ancestor Minghe wouldn't understand, Xu Fang elaborated. Yet, as Xu Fang watched the World-Destroying Black Lotus being tossed around, he shook his head.
"It's more like playing ball, or kicking a ball?"
Xu Fang mused, trying to find the most fitting analogy.
Ancestor Minghe listened to Xu Fang's peculiar pronouncements and, even with Xu Fang's explanations, only half-understood.
However, Ancestor Minghe nodded nonetheless, his face beaming with joy.
After all, the World-Destroying Black Lotus was now surrounded by magical treasures, constantly being slammed into, making it impossible to break free or even stabilize.
"If this continues, even if the World-Destroying Black Lotus holds out, Wutian won't be able to."
Ancestor Minghe looked at Wutian, who was tossed about inside the World-Destroying Black Lotus, and suddenly felt a pang of fear.
He was fortunate that it wasn't him inside the World-Destroying Black Lotus, otherwise, he would have surrendered long ago.
Hearing Ancestor Minghe's words, Xu Fang smiled faintly.
It would be best if Wutian couldn't endure it and surrendered.
However, he doubted Wutian would back down so quickly. Fortunately, he had other plans in store, so he wasn't afraid of him.
Meanwhile, Wutian, confined within the World-Destroying Black Lotus, had long lost his initial dignified and nonchalant demeanor. He was now on high alert, bracing himself for every impact and tumble.
Despite Wutian's solemn approach, the constant battering and tumbling, along with the World-Destroying Black Lotus's erratic movements, left him utterly helpless.
"You think this is enough to make me yield? Dream on! Ahhhh!"
Wutian roared, both to mock Xu Fang and Ancestor Minghe, and to bolster his own courage. But, as expected, he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
Wutian was filled with indignation. These two scoundrels were utterly despicable!
Unable to break through the defenses of the World-Destroying Black Lotus, they were using this method of repeatedly striking it with magical treasures. It was infuriating!
A scholar can be killed, but not insulted! You can't defeat me, so you're resorting to humiliating me!
Wutian was both furious and resentful. The World-Destroying Black Lotus's defenses were such that no being or magical treasure in this realm could overcome them. He was in an unshakeable, invincible position.
Yet, they chose to break the mold and not even attempt to breach the World-Destroying Black Lotus's defenses, opting instead for this strategy of humiliation. How utterly disgraceful for such powerful beings!
"Enough is enough! We are all magical treasures, can you show me some face!"
The World-Destroying Black Lotus itself suddenly cried out. These magical treasures battering it incessantly, though it sustained no damage, had ignited its fury and a deep sense of humiliation.
However, these words immediately drew mockery from the other magical treasures.
"Heh heh! Who was it that was so arrogant and imperious just now? If you have the guts, keep it up! Why are you shouting!"
"Exactly! You showed us no face earlier, so why should we show you any now!"
"Haha! This is truly exhilarating! This is my first time playing bumper cars with magical treasures, and I've already fallen in love with the feeling. World-Destroying Black Lotus, again!"
The magical treasures declared, and then, with renewed vigor, they continued their assault, playing with it as if it were a ball, kicking it around without a second thought.
The World-Destroying Black Lotus was speechless. It knew it should have been more humble when it first spoke, lest it end up like this!
Seeing the Seven-Treasure Exquisite Pagoda suspended high in the air, constantly narrating the situation below, the World-Destroying Black Lotus knew it was undoubtedly being broadcast live.
Thinking of this, the World-Destroying Black Lotus felt even more despair. This humiliation was now being witnessed by all the magical treasures of the Primordial Era.
After today, it would become a laughingstock among the magical treasures of the Primordial Era!
