Primordial: I, Dijun, Only Want to Build the Great Desolation-Chapter 176 - 170: Slaying the Three Corpses Completely
Chapter 176: Chapter 170: Slaying the Three Corpses Completely
Di Jun’s Evil Corpse had appeared, but it was not severed by Di Jun. Instead, it grew along with Di Jun’s comprehension of the Demon Path heritage.
Eons drifted by, a Yuanhui silently passed, and Di Jun completely assimilated the Demon Path heritage.
In particular, the various aspects of the Spiritual Demon Path allowed Di Jun to gain a deeper understanding of the power of the spirit and a profound insight into the Outer Heaven Demon Path.
However, through this comprehension of the Demon Ancestor’s heritage, Di Jun also realized the formidable strength of Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.
The good news is, the stronger Demon Ancestor Luo Hou is, the harder it is for him to enter the Spirit Land of others.
The bad news is, when Di Jun’s cultivation reached the required level, confronting Demon Ancestor Luo Hou would be extremely difficult.
During this Yuanhui, several more Quasi-Saints emerged in Primordial, and friction between the Immortal Court and the Witch Clan gradually flared up again.
Although Di Jun did not participate in the management of the Demon Clan, its various systems steadily grew stronger.
While it did not expand as rapidly as the Immortal Court by assimilating other life forms, it had the advantage of being stable and resource-rich.
Moreover, the greatest asset of the Demon Clan was Di Jun himself, followed by the several Quasi-Saints within the Demon Clan.
Sun Star.
A strong spiritual power enveloped Di Jun.
During this Yuanhui, Donghuang Taiyi had come to seek out Di Jun, but ended up immersed in the spiritual power inadvertently created by Di Jun.
Were it not for the warning of the Donghuang Bell, it would be unknown when Donghuang Taiyi could awaken.
Following this, the region on the Sun Star became forbidden for the life forms of the Demon Clan, and Donghuang Taiyi also explained the situation to other Demon Clan higher-ups.
At this moment, Di Jun slowly opened his eyes, and the surrounding spiritual power instantly returned inside his body.
A figure emerged from Di Jun, bearing the same face as him but with a more fierce and awe-inspiring countenance—it was Di Jun’s Evil Corpse.
"Greetings to the original form!"
After the Evil Corpse manifested, it immediately spoke to Di Jun.
Di Jun nodded but did not utter words like "you and I are one and the same, no need for formalities" as others who had severed their corpses might.
In Di Jun’s view, there was indeed a difference between the Three Corpses and the original form, and it was essential to clarify the hierarchy.
And Di Jun’s severing of the corpses followed this principle.
Thus, even if the Evil Corpse was fierce and terrifying, it needed to behave respectfully before the original form Di Jun.
Seeing that Di Jun did not speak, the Evil Corpse did not dare show any emotion and immediately said, "I do not know on what I should be bestowed. Please make a decision, original form."
Indeed, Di Jun had not yet allowed the Evil Corpse to reside within an Innate Spiritual Treasure before severing it.
Di Jun also understood why the Evil Corpse would have such a question.
Without an object to reside in, it could not exist permanently in Primordial, only for a certain duration.
And this duration of existence was due to Di Jun’s profound Cultivation Realm.
Were it another Quasi-Saint without a Treasured Object to bestow, they might not even be able to sever the corpse.
"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to hurry; just wait a while longer."
Di Jun’s calm voice resounded.
The Evil Corpse did not dare to have any objections and could only comply with the original form’s command.
Following this, Di Jun’s Top Three Flowers appeared above his head, with vital energies continuously condensing, as two figures gradually emerged.
Seeing this, the Evil Corpse understood that the original form was simultaneously forming the Good Corpse and the Self Corpse.
With his current realm, Di Jun has reached the peak of Primordial Golden Immortals, and naturally, once he has comprehended the Three Corpses Technique, he would be able to sever the Three Corpses.
And with his profound foundation, he could condense the Good Corpse as well as the Corpse of Self simultaneously.
Di Jun himself possesses formidable spiritual power and has inherited the Spiritual Demon Path from the Demon Ancestor. Naturally, he could become enlightened about his own essence, understanding his own delineation and preferences between good and evil.
Thus, from a spiritual perspective, Di Jun had no difficulty severing the Three Corpses.
After a long time, the Corpse of Self and the Good Corpse were successfully condensed—one with an indifferent expression, the other with a kind countenance.
The moment they were condensed, the Corpse of Self and the Good Corpse left the Top Three Flowers of Di Jun and appeared in front of the Evil Corpse.
"Greetings to the Original Being, greetings to fellow Daoists."
The Good Corpse and the Corpse of Self spoke in unison.
"Greetings to the two fellow Daoists."
The Evil Corpse replied.
After their mutual greetings, they turned their gazes toward Di Jun.
Di Jun did not speak; instead, he released a portion of his thoughts, allowing the Three Corpses to know and understand.
After grasping Di Jun’s thoughts, the expressions of the Three Corpses turned very solemn.
This was because, even upon their birth, they still referred to the Three Corpses Method as preached by the Saints.
And Di Jun’s subsequent idea was his own trial; he wanted the Three Corpses to be entrusted within a single Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Why should they be scattered among different Innate Spiritual Treasures when the origins of the Good Corpse, the Evil Corpse, and the Corpse of Self all stemmed from him, all from a single origin?
Moreover, would merging with different threads of Innate Undying Spiritual Light cause this shared origin to diverge?
Under such an idea, Di Jun wanted his Three Corpses to put this to a test.
After all, Di Jun’s foundation for attaining his Dao was not as a Quasi-Saint, nor was it the Three Corpses, but rather on the path of a Primordial Golden Immortal.
The Three Corpses, with solemn expressions, nodded and said in unison, "We will heed the original being’s command."
At this moment, Di Jun certainly did not hesitate. With a motion of his mind, the River Map and Luo Book appeared in his hands.
Di Jun’s Good Corpse, Evil Corpse, and Corpse of Self exchanged glances and then transformed into a beam of light that entered into the River Map and Luo Book.
Within the River Map and Luo Book, the Good Corpse, Evil Corpse, and Corpse of Self floated in mid-air, above them were the three hundred sixty-five Main Stars, four hundred eighty million auxiliary stars, and innumerable grains of Star Sand.
Below was the reflection of countless mountains, rivers, and streams of the Primordial Continent.
Located between the two was the projection of the Thirty-Three Heavens of the Heavenly Realm, thirty-three ethereal worlds, connecting each Layer of Heaven to the stars as well as the land, mountains, and rivers.
The Good Corpse, Evil Corpse, and Corpse of Self each began to move.
The Good Corpse shot up to the sky, settling upon the Sun Star among All Heavens Stars, sitting cross-legged, sensing the Innate Undying Spiritual Light within the River Map and Luo Book.
The Evil Corpse descended directly on the land, using the mountains, rivers, and streams as a medium, searching for the Undying Spiritual Light within the River Map and Luo Book.
The Corpse of Self headed straight for the Heavenly Realm, stepping into the Thirty-Third Heaven, floating within, seeking the Innate Undying Spiritual Light.
All three acted with great speed, also maintaining the same pace.
Since all three possessed Di Jun’s Origin, the search for the Innate Undying Spiritual Light was almost simultaneously accomplished by all three.
After finding the Innate Undying Spiritual Light, the three did not dare to delay and began to entrust themselves within it.
However, at this point, they encountered an obstacle.
Because they found the Innate Undying Spiritual Light had a nature of exclusivity, despite their origins being the same, they were ultimately three separate origins, situated in three different places.
Once one of them was entrusted within the Innate Undying Spiritual Light, the other two would be unable to be entrusted.
