Chapter 297 Desire to Slay the Three Corpses
The next morning.

As the first rays of sunlight shone down, Zhao Zhen finished her usual morning meditation practice.

He slowly opened his eyes, feeling the vigorous flow of true qi within his body, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"I have made great progress in the Three Powers Method left by the Hermit of Ziyang Mountain, but I still feel like I'm missing something when I reach that level..."

The realm Zhao Zhen was referring to was naturally not the legendary realm of ascension, which was still too far away for him at the moment.

What he wants to achieve now is the legendary "severing of the three corpses" realm!
The so-called Three Corpses refer to three innate "original sins" or "yin and turbid desires" in the human body, which respectively reside in the upper, middle and lower dantian.

The upper part of the body, Peng Ju, is located in the Niwan Palace of the head, and it governs greed, fondness for ornamentation, and distracting thoughts.

The Zhongshi Pengzhi point is located in the Jiang Palace of the chest, and it governs anger, fondness for flavors, and emotional instability.

The lower abdomen, specifically the perineum (Dantian), is associated with lust, greed, and a desire for pleasure.

The Three Corpses (a concept in Traditional Chinese Medicine) can deplete one's energy, disturb one's mind, and hinder spiritual practice.

If Zhao Zhen wants to reach a higher level, the focus on "severing the three corpses" is unavoidable!
Throughout history, looking at the entire history of extraordinary people, there are very few people who have forcibly severed their "three corpses" solely by their own will!

It is precisely because the path of "severing the three corpses" is not a path that ordinary people can reach that some people think of not severing the three corpses, but controlling them through special means, so as to make their three corpses work for them.

This is the core concept of the Anlu Three Demons Sect.

Zhao Zhen can clearly sense the three corpses within his body, but he is at a loss as to how to eliminate them.

I originally thought that as long as I kept practicing the alchemy, I would eventually naturally know how to sever the three corpses.

The more Zhao Zhen practiced alchemy, the more he realized how ridiculous his previous idea was.

The Three Corpses do not come from the temptations and influences of the world, but are born from the three original sins inherent in humankind: greed, ignorance, and anger!

These three original sins cannot be erased simply by practicing a certain technique; they must be eradicated through cultivating the mind!
In Zhao Zhen's view, he believed that he had come a long way in the Three Chariots method, but it was clear that this method did not help in severing the Three Corpses.

So he came up with another idea, which was to follow the "Mind Monkey" path of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Although these two methods of refining Qi are not fundamentally different in terms of cultivation, it is clear that the method of the Celestial Master's Mansion places more emphasis on the cultivation of mind and character, which is undoubtedly more suitable for laying the groundwork for his future "severing of the three corpses".

As for how to take this path, Zhao Zhen already had a preliminary plan in mind.

Given his relationship with the Celestial Master's Mansion, it shouldn't be difficult for him to communicate with Zhang Zhiwei and the others about how to control the "Mind Monkey."

As for the Three Corpses, a name naturally came to mind for Zhao Zhen—the Three Demon Sect.

Rumor has it that the Three Demons Sect possesses a technological solution that can completely eradicate the Three Corpses; perhaps he could try to make some contact with their disciples.

Just as Zhao Zhen was pondering how to proceed, there was a sudden knocking sound at the door.

dong dong dong~
The moment she heard the knock on the door, Zhao Zhen banished all the distracting thoughts from her mind and slowly sat up from the bed.

squeak~
The wooden door was slowly pushed open, and what came into Zhao Zhen's view was Zhou Zhengyang's familiar face.

"Chairman Zhao, how did you sleep last night?"

"Hmm, not bad. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Chairman Zhao, early this morning, Master Wu and his disciples suddenly left the inn in a hurry and headed straight for the east of the city."

"Does he have news about Wugensheng?" A hint of doubt flashed in Zhao Zhen's eyes.

"I didn't know, so I didn't dare hesitate and rushed over to inform you."

"Well, hard work."

Zhao Zhen patted Zhou Zhengyang on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards the east of the city.

Inside Zhenjiang City, damp and cold mist clung to the bluestone pavement as Chengzhen led three young disciples swiftly through the intricate alleyways in the eastern part of the city.

The lead disciple clutched a hastily written note, his fingertips trembling slightly: "Master, the informant said that Wugensheng appeared in the warehouse area of ​​the docks ahead this morning..."

"Silence."

Chengzhen suddenly raised his hand, and a faint white light swirled in the depths of his pupils.

In the shadows at the alleyway ahead, two figures draped in straw raincoats silently blocked the way, and a heavy, pungent smell of blood mixed with the fishy stench of the river wind assaulted our senses.

"Tsk tsk, isn't this Master Chengzhen of the Sanyi Sect?"

The man in the middle lifted his hood, revealing a chiseled face with a playful smile on his lips.

"It's been years, and you still haven't gotten rid of this habit of chasing after our sect leader?"

"Liu Hao, the Eagle Who Climbs the Mountain!"

Chengzhen's pupils suddenly contracted, and his brows began to furrow slightly.

"Brother Liu, why are you saying such harsh things? If you ask me, Wei Xuanzi... oh no, now he's the head of the Sanyi Sect, so he should be called Head Wu."

"Master Wu simply enjoys smelling our sect leader's farts. In this world, who doesn't have a peculiar hobby?"

"Xie Zhu, the Five Beauties Fox?"

The disciples behind Chengzhen recognized the man and woman the moment they saw them—the Quanxing!
Faced with Liu Hao and Xie Zhu's sarcasm, Cheng Zhen's face did not show any anger; instead, a smile gradually appeared.

"It seems that the fiend Wugensheng is really hiding in Zhenjiang City..."

Xie Zhu, you don't need to provoke me. After all, it wasn't me who slunk away with my tail between my legs back then.

"Whether the sect leader is here or not, what does it have to do with you?"

Xie Zhu chuckled and then continued, "As for what happened back then with Master Liu, if it weren't for the presence of Immortal Daying and Zhao Zhen, you, Wei Xuanzi, would have been a corpse long ago."

Upon hearing this, Chengzhen's expression immediately turned cold.

"Who will become a corpse is still unknown! Disciples of the Three Ones Sect, heed my command!"

"Yes!"

"Exterminate demons and uphold justice! Slay the evil ones!"

Chengzhen's cold words "Slay the demon" were like sparks thrown into hot oil, instantly igniting the already tense alleyway!
"The third level of rebirth!"

Chengzhen swayed slightly, and his skin suddenly glowed with a pure and flawless jade-white light. His true qi surged and churned within him, and his figure seemed to transform into a white rainbow as he charged towards the three Quanxing members blocking his path!
He said no more, his goal was clear—to quickly eliminate all obstacles in his path!
"Hmph! Master Wu, you're still as impatient as ever after all these years!"

Liu Hao, the Mountain Eagle, grinned maliciously. Without dodging or avoiding, his arms were bulging with muscles, and black and red Qi energy swirled around them, like the claws and fangs of a vicious beast, carrying a fierce and bloody wind. He threw out both fists at the same time, fiercely meeting Chengzhen's handprint!
The fists and palms collided, producing a dull, loud "thump!"
