Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 175 - 169: Comprehending the Legacy, The Malicious Corpse Emerges
Chapter 175: Chapter 169: Comprehending the Legacy, The Malicious Corpse Emerges
```
As Daoist Jie Yin disappeared from Di Jun’s perception, Di Jun settled his gaze upon the book that contained the heritage of the Demon Path.
The heritage of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.
Di Jun didn’t believe that the heritage of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou would appear on Mount Sumeru without reason.
One must know that not long after the mental clash between the Demon Ancestor and the Saint had concluded, Jie Yin broke through to the Quasi-Saint realm and embarked on a new path.
At this thought, Di Jun was reminded of Buddhism from the legends of a past life.
He murmured softly, "One thought can make one Buddha, one thought can make one demon; Buddha and demon are essentially one, separated only by that single thought."
He couldn’t help but look again in the direction where Daoist Jie Yin had departed, chuckling lightly: "In that case, the trial of Daoist Jie Yin and Daoist Zhun Ti has only just begun, I hope they can, like in their past life, suppress the demons in their hearts and present the image of the Buddha known to the common folk."
Di Jun shook his head, suppressing these distracting thoughts.
The River Map and Luo Book emerged in the Sea of Consciousness, safeguarding his Primordial Spirit.
Within the Spirit Land, the complete Celestial Heaven Star Formation slowly revolved with a light and agile energy emanating as well from the Thirty-Three Heavens.
At the same time, he was harnessing the vitality within the Spirit Land, strengthening both the Celestial Heaven Star Formation and the Thirty-Three Heavens.
After making these preparations, Di Jun waved his hand, and the book containing the heritage of the Demon Path fell into his hands.
Di Jun sat by the stone table, his expression calm, and as he lifted his hand to open the book, an illusory Twelve-Grade Black Lotus appeared with wisps of gold around it, which continued to dissipate.
In an instant, Di Jun saw that the golden edges were sealing the Black Lotus, and as he opened the book, the seal began to unravel.
Di Jun made no move, quietly waiting for the seal to be lifted.
He trusted Daoist Jie Yin; he trusted even more that presently, neither Jie Yin nor Zhun Ti could withstand his wrath.
As the golden edges exhausted themselves, the Black Lotus immediately surged towards Di Jun.
Once the illusory Black Lotus detached from the book, the book itself turned immediately to ashes.
Clearly, the book was merely a one-time vessel.
Just as the Black Lotus was about to enter the center of Di Jun’s brow, it abruptly stopped.
Since it was the heritage of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, Di Jun, of course, would not allow it to recklessly enter his body — he would naturally intervene to stop it.
Di Jun’s Divine Sense reached out, permeating into the Twelve-Grade Black Lotus.
Boundless Demon Sea instantly engulfed Di Jun’s Divine Sense, yet it couldn’t invade Di Jun’s physical body along this trace of Divine Sense.
At the instant Di Jun activated the heritage, far away in the Demon Realm, Luo Hou opened his eyes.
"Are Jie Yin and Zhun Ti so eager to impart their teachings? Let me see who is fortunate enough to obtain my heritage."
"But my heritage is not so easily attained."
Luo Hou couldn’t help but laugh.
Without moving his physical body, Luo Hou let his Spiritual Power spread out, forming a spiritual projection with feet standing upon pitch-black soil.
Following the sensory connection of the heritage, he began to search.
Emperor Jun.
Luo Hou stood in the void of the Spirit Land, gazing at that expanse of the Spirit Land.
At this time, Di Jun’s figure also manifested within the Spirit Land, and he saw Luo Hou, who had not concealed his form.
"Greetings, Demon Ancestor."
Said Di Jun.
While comprehending the heritage of the Demon Path, Di Jun had already prepared to meet the Demon Ancestor.
"So it’s you who’ve obtained the heritage."
```
Luo Hou spoke with considerable emotion.
"The Demon Ancestor has taken a fancy to my body, leaving me no choice but to strive relentlessly. If I can glimpse even a fraction of your Divine Skills from the Demon Ancestor’s legacy, I can increase my chances of victory."
Di Jun spoke openly.
"Good, I hope that when the time comes, your struggle will prove to be somewhat interesting."
Luo Hou said with a smile.
Di Jun’s expression was resolute as he said, "I will certainly not disappoint the Demon Ancestor."
Luo Hou smiled and then changed the subject.
"You should be able to feel that with your realm insufficient, I cannot yet enter your Spirit Land; why put up such a grand posture?"
"The machinations of the Demon Ancestor compel me to be a bit more cautious."
Di Jun had also believed in the premonitions that come from the unknown, but after witnessing Luo Hou’s various schemes, his guard was raised even higher.
Who could have imagined that an Outer Heaven Demon could actually break away from the Demon Realm on its own? No need for the support of the Spirit Land.
Seeing how heavily guarded Di Jun was against him, Luo Hou couldn’t help but speak again: "Since you wish to pry into my Divine Skills, why not go to the Demon Realm? I shall personally elucidate the doctrine to you."
Had it not been for Di Jun’s formidable strength and the robustness of his Power of Spirit, Luo Hou would not have needed to seek Di Jun’s consent.
Think back to when Daoist Jie Yin and Daoist Zhun Ti were dragged into the Demon Realm by Luo Hou using the legacy as an anchor, where they were forcibly imparted with teachings.
Had it not been for Hong Jun’s intervention, the two of them would now be able to serve as apostles of the Demon Path, making outstanding contributions to the arrival of the Outer Heaven Demons.
Di Jun did not respond to Luo Hou’s words, merely watching Luo Hou with caution.
"Boring, Emperor Jun, you have become even more boring."
After speaking, Luo Hou stepped on the pitch-black soil and disappeared into the void of the Spirit Land.
Di Jun did not relax; he remained vigilant.
After a long time, once Di Jun was certain that Luo Hou had indeed left, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since the seven Outer Heaven Demons refined him, Di Jun realized that he dared not show the slightest complacency when facing Luo Hou in the future.
Now that Luo Hou had departed, Di Jun’s main focus was on the Demon Path legacy.
Di Jun perused various Demon Path legacies, pondering over the effect of their Divine Skills in his mind.
The various inheritances of the Spiritual Demon Path were a particular focus of Di Jun’s attention.
Should he find himself in conflict with the Demon Ancestor in the future, a confrontation of the spirit would be highly likely.
While Di Jun was browsing and deducing the various inheritances of the Spiritual Demon Path, wisps of black qi appeared in his Spirit Land.
However, the moment this black qi surfaced, the Celestial Heaven Star Formation and the Thirty-Three Heavens completely obliterated it.
Of course, Di Jun was aware of this situation, which is why he felt confident enough to boldly comprehend and peruse.
Daoist Jie Yin and Daoist Zhun Ti, with their lower cultivation levels, faced these legacies with only the option to staunchly guard their minds.
Only after introducing the Saint’s Path were they barely able to extract themselves from entrapment and be forced to accept the content within the legacies.
But Di Jun did not have this problem. After meeting with Luo Hou, he was able to safely comprehend these legacies.
After all, his Spiritual Power was incredibly strong; these legacies could not lead him astray, unless the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou himself took action, and then there would be a slight possibility.
At the same time, Di Jun was also observing his own state; while he comprehended the Demon Path inheritance, he could feel his vital energy condensing toward a direction within his body.
And with it, the Power of Spirit.
Evil Corpse!
Di Jun could distinctly perceive that he seemed to be condensing an Evil Corpse.
He had comprehended the Three Corpses Technique for a long time, and now this Demon Path inheritance acted like a catalyst, causing the emergence of his own Evil Corpse.
