Wu Nengsheng: "????"

Hearing the World Honored’s shout, Wu Nengsheng had a look of disbelief on his face.

He had never thought that the Evil Corpse could betray?

In Wu Nengsheng’s understanding, the three corpses cut out by the Three Corpses Cutting Method depend on the existence of the true body.

No matter what, there shouldn’t be a "betrayal" situation!

"Impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible, the World Honored, that old guy, must be bluffing!" Inside the mud-made alms bowl, Wu Nengsheng kept shaking his head, unwilling to believe it no matter what.

However, whether he believed it or not, the facts were laid out in front of him.

"Can!" Outside the mud-made alms bowl, the voice of the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha rang out.

After agreeing, the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha turned and left this place, disappearing without a trace.

The Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha’s simple "can" was like a heavy hammer striking Wu Nengsheng’s heart.

"Fellow Daoist, don’t be foolish, don’t be foolish!"

"Fellow Daoist, you and I were originally one, don’t do things that harm yourself for nothing!"

...

...

Wu Nengsheng kept calling out, trying to call back the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha, but received no response.

The Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha had truly left!

His Evil Corpse, the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha, had reached a consensus with the World Honored to kill him?

If this had happened before today, no matter how many times it was said, Wu Nengsheng wouldn’t have believed it.

However, now the facts were clearly laid out, and the situation happened so truly and vividly.

After the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha left, Wu Nengsheng was truly panicked inside.

Now, he was in the World Honored’s mud-made alms bowl, and the World Honored was in his human seed bag.

If they continued to stalemate like this, without a doubt, they’d both be destroyed.

"Wu Nengsheng, although you have mastered the Three Corpses Cutting Method, you have only a superficial understanding of it!"

"Though the Three Corpses Cutting Enlightenment Method is the strongest, it is also the most uncontrollable."

"The three corpses can comply with you, but they can also revolt, and you don’t even know this!"

"My Nine Reincarnations Enlightenment Method, in fact, also originates from the Three Corpses Cutting Method. Although the Nine Reincarnations Enlightenment Method is weaker than the Three Corpses Cutting Enlightenment Method, the true body can exert absolute control over the nine reincarnated bodies." The World Honored said calmly.

Just from the Three Corpses Cutting Method alone, one can see the gap between Wu Nengsheng and the World Honored.

The World Honored had comprehended the Three Corpses Cutting Method countless years before Wu Nengsheng and was aware of its shortcomings, whereas Wu Nengsheng was not.

Moreover, the World Honored had even created a method to strengthen the connection between the three corpses and the true body, to enhance the control of the true body over the three corpses.

The reason the Dean could escape the World Honored’s control was that the Rebirth Saint Mother took him to reincarnate, completely eroding the connection between the Good Corpse and the true body.

The World Honored rambled on, telling Wu Nengsheng things he had never known before.

However, at this moment, Wu Nengsheng felt a sense of foreboding.

Why would the World Honored tell him so much?

A lot of it was even the secrets of the World Honored?

There could only be one reason, the World Honored saw him as a dead man.

A dead man would never leak secrets.

Panic surged in Wu Nengsheng’s heart, and he abruptly interrupted the World Honored.

He knew he couldn’t listen any longer; the more he listened, the smaller his hope of survival.

"World Honored, why must we continue this struggle?"

"If we keep fighting, we’ll both perish, and it will benefit neither of us!" Wu Nengsheng’s tone began to soften.

"I’m a clone!" The World Honored replied simply.

Though the World Honored’s answer was simple, its meaning was starkly clear.

The World Honored was a clone, while Wu Nengsheng was the true body.

A one-for-one, a clone for a true body, this would be a blood profit for the World Honored.

Wu Nengsheng: "????"

Wu Nengsheng realized that the initiative was now in the World Honored’s hands.

Hoping to talk his way out of this with a few words was clearly impossible.

If he wanted to survive now, he’d have to make a hefty concession.

"I submit, World Honored, I, Wu Nengsheng, submit!"

"Let me go, and I vow on my Dao Heart to give up the idea of enlightenment, and from now on, wholeheartedly support you."

"Although the Sect has suffered losses because of me, I guarantee that within five years, I’ll restore the Sect to its Peak."

"World Honored, that old fellow surnamed Bai and Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, they’ve been plotting against you all along."

"Spare me this time, and I can help you deal with them; you need a helper!" Wu Nengsheng was already beginning to soften.

No, perhaps it could be said to be begging for his life.

It’s important to know that a cultivator’s oath is not the same as an ordinary person’s.

For ordinary young couples, swearing things like being struck by lightning or hit by a car are just jokes.

But in cultivation, oaths are no joke.

Once an oath is sworn, it will surely be fulfilled. Especially swearing on the Dao Heart, once violated, will shatter it.

The World Honored could give up a clone to perish alongside Wu Nengsheng.

But Wu Nengsheng didn’t dare!

He was the true body; if the true body perished alongside the World Honored, it would play right into the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha’s hands.

Once the true body dies, the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha becomes the true body.

Thinking of the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha made Wu Nengsheng grind his teeth with anger; if that traitor had joined him, they would have already dealt with the World Honored.

He hated the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha, the traitor, and likewise, the World Honored hated him, the traitor, too!

Therefore, today, no matter what, the World Honored would not spare him.

"Wu Nengsheng, stop wasting your breath, today no matter what, you’re doomed to die!" The World Honored’s voice was strong and unyielding, leaving no room for negotiation.

Once unfaithful, never used again.

No matter what, the World Honored could never trust Wu Nengsheng again.

Moreover, the reason the World Honored took the risk to kill Wu Nengsheng was to set an example.

The only reason for Wu Nengsheng’s existence now was to let everyone secretly plotting against the World Honored know.

The World Honored was not so easily provoked.

Even without his true form, he had many Dharma bodies.

The Nine Reincarnations Dharma body had been mistakenly destroyed by Lin Yuan, making the second path to enlightenment impassable.

So, for the World Honored, the other Dharma bodies weren’t very useful anymore.

Even if one Dharma body could perish with a Tier Two Peak Expert, he could take several with him.

If anyone dared to plot against him again, he’d fight them to the death.

As such, other Tier Two powerhouses planning against him would have to think twice.

The early bird gets the worm, but who would want to be that bird and be taken advantage of by others?

Wu Nengsheng wasn’t a fool; he seemed to know his fate from the World Honored’s words.

"Fine!"

"Fine! Fine!" Wu Nengsheng gritted his teeth, roaring, "Since you insist on my death, then let none of us have peace."

"I want to level these Ten Thousand Mountains."
