Transmigrating to the Primordial Era as a Peerless Great Witch, Changing Fate in the Primordial Worl
Chapter 266 Hongjun's Despair, the Temptation of Heaven
Of these three body parts, the first part embodies the yearning for "order," "education," and "vitality" inherent in its nature, which is entrusted to the "good corpse."
The second paragraph reveals his inherent ruthlessness towards "scheming," "plundering," and "the struggle for the Great Way," which he entrusts to the "evil corpse."
The third section encapsulates his obsession with "attaining enlightenment," "transcendence," and "controlling everything," which he entrusts to the "self-corpse."
The benefits of severing one's own original body from its corpse are obvious. The three corpses are of the same origin and nature as the original body, and their minds are connected, so there is almost no rejection or barrier.
When the cultivation of the Three Corpses is perfected and the final step of "Three Corpses Unite" is carried out, the process is smoother than imagined, flowing naturally and without any obstruction, many times smoother than when the innate spiritual treasure was used as a vessel last time.
Seeing the Three Corpses' essence successfully merge into his body, Hongjun felt a surge of hope.
He felt that his understanding of the Dao was clearer than ever before, and his magical power was also increasing wildly. It seemed that he could break through that solid barrier at any moment and step into the long-awaited "Primordial Golden Immortal" realm, becoming a truly transcendent and free Primordial Golden Immortal.
However, the spark of hope burned brightest for a short time before being extinguished.
When the last ripple of the three corpses merging into one subsided, the expected phenomenon of the "Primordial Dao Fruit" condensing and the Great Dao resonating did not appear.
He stopped at the half-step Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal level, and only his total magical power reached this level. His understanding of the "Hunyuan" Dao realm, his mastery of his own Dao, and that true transcendence of the Heavenly Dao and the essential sublimation did not arrive at the same time.
"Why is this happening?" Hongjun stared blankly at himself, feeling the vast but somewhat ethereal magical power, and the Dao realm that was still separated from true Hunyuan by a barrier. For a moment, he was somewhat bewildered.
"Is there something wrong with my method of severing the three corpses to prove the Dao? No, it shouldn't be like this." Hongjun's heart was first filled with great self-doubt, and then he was overwhelmed by strong feelings of denial.
He could not accept that the "Severing the Three Corpses" method, which he had painstakingly created, was actually a dead end.
"Yes, it must be something entrusted to him." Hongjun quickly found a "reason," or rather, an excuse to comfort himself.
"The last time I entrusted a primordial spiritual treasure, although its quality was acceptable, it was ultimately an external object and there was a gap between it and my origin, so it was difficult to unite with it, and it may even leave hidden dangers, leading to ultimate failure."
Although this body was made from the same source without any gaps, the origin, the Dao charm, and the "quality" of the Great Dao it carried were far inferior to those top-tier innate spiritual treasures, let alone innate supreme treasures.
"My foundation is too weak, and my capacity to bear it is limited. Therefore, the power after the three corpses merge is insufficient to support me in breaking through the final barrier and attaining true Hunyuan."
This explanation seems logically plausible. The essence of the Three Corpses Severing Method lies in "entrustment" and "carrying". The quality of the entrusting object determines the upper limit of the potential of the three corpses and also affects the final result of their unification.
Using one's relatively "ordinary" physical body to bear the three thoughts of "good," "evil," and "attachment" that involve the fundamental principles of the Great Dao may be superior in terms of "compatibility," but it is indeed inherently deficient in terms of "intensity" and "depth."
Having figured this out, Hongjun felt a little relieved, but what followed was a deeper sense of powerlessness and a hint of despair.
Top-tier innate spiritual treasures are already rare. Countless have been damaged, lost, or stolen during the Dragon-Han and Dao-Mo tribulations. He was also robbed twice by Wu Gu. Where can he find three powerful treasures with compatible attributes to re-sever his corpse?
Moreover, time waits for no one, and the great trend of the evolution of the Heavenly Dao is about to change. He vaguely felt that if he could not take that step as soon as possible, there might be unpredictable dangers in the future.
Just as Hongjun was lost in confusion and anxiety about the severance of his path to enlightenment, and cracks appeared in his Dao heart, that cold, indifferent, yet supreme will, the Primordial Heavenly Dao, descended once more.
"Hongjun, although your method of severing the three corpses is of high purpose, the object on which it is entrusted is weak and the foundation is flawed. Your hope of attaining the Primordial Chaos is slim." The will of Heaven directly exposed Hongjun's current predicament.
The voice of Heaven was neither joyful nor sorrowful, yet it carried an undeniable majesty: "However, Heaven is supremely impartial, and it also remembers your contribution in advancing the course of countless eons. Now there is a method that can help you instantly attain the supreme position, enjoy the fruit of eternal immortality, and wield the power of primordial education."
"What method?" Hongjun's heart stirred, and he asked, suppressing his excitement.
"By aligning oneself with the Heavenly Dao, one can become a Heavenly Dao Saint." The voice of the Heavenly Dao's will seemed to possess a seductive power.
"Using your Dao Fruition and your understanding of the Heavenly Dao as guidance, I will use the origin of the Heavenly Dao to help you reshape your Dao foundation and establish your saintly position. From this day forward, you will be the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao in the primordial world, acting on behalf of Heaven, your words becoming law, and your power enduring through countless eons. Furthermore, you can become a sage of the primordial world, spreading the Dao to all living beings, governing the Xuanmen (mysterious sect), and receiving boundless fortune."
"A Heavenly Sage? A Sage?" Hongjun murmured repeatedly, his heart pounding uncontrollably.
Isn't this one of the most ideal paths he had previously deduced?
Although subject to the laws of Heaven and not as "free" as a true Primordial Golden Immortal, they are still immortal and indestructible, incomparably noble, and can even use the power of the laws of Heaven to possess supreme power and authority.
Especially now that their own path seems to be cut off, this is undoubtedly a golden road. And if planned well, they might even be able to take over.
But Hongjun was not without doubts; he thought of his incomplete Creation Jade Disc.
Can this fragment protect one's primordial spirit and allow one to maintain one's true self during the process of merging with the vast origin of the Heavenly Dao?
"The Way of Heaven is vast, and I fear that with only this broken jade disc, I cannot maintain my true heart?" Hongjun asked hesitantly.
"You need not worry." The will of Heaven seemed to have seen through his concerns.
"Although your Jade Disc of Creation is incomplete, its essence remains, and it is also connected to the Heavenly Dao. I will personally protect you during the fusion process."
Furthermore, becoming a Heavenly Saint makes one a part of the Heavenly Dao; how can there be talk of being lost? This is your opportunity, and also the inevitable course of the primordial evolution, the trend of the times. Are you willing?
The voice of Heaven carried a sense of oppressive "destiny," and combined with the predicament of his own path and his desire for the position of a sage, the scales in Hongjun's heart finally tipped completely.
