Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 911 - 471: Outer Body Incarnation (2)

At this time, the Three Corpses naturally become a tribulation, it is time to sever the corpse.

Of course, if one can sever the corpse worm and refine it into an elixir, the benefits are self-evident. Completely severing the Three Corpses, breaking through the thoughts of greed, anger, and ignorance, can gain an opportunity for enlightenment. Therefore, many Mystic Sect People pursue this path to seek breakthroughs.

But those who perish at the hands of the Three Corpses, hehe, are also numerous."

Tie Dan squinted and looked at him suspiciously, without hiding his doubt.

The old man was not bothered, and continued,

"My Peng Ju corpse is extraordinary, previously replacing me in blocking a tribulation of death, and thus parted from my control.

Later, he conspired and schemed, severing two of my corpse avatars, now with 3,600 years of complete Daoist cultivation, becoming uncontrollable.

However, I have been secluded in the mountain, with a group of senior brothers helping me, he still cannot harm me.

Thus, he now plans to secretly scheme and harm you, provoking the conflict at Cloud Platform, inciting internal strife within the Mystic Sect, so he can fish for benefits.

However, man plans and Heaven laughs; this time, this villain was slain by Lord Xuantian, eliminating my heart’s trouble, indeed a win-win situation. If Fellow Daoist acts rashly, attacking my Kongtong Mountain seeking vengeance, you would be falling into his ploy."

"..."

Tie Dan furrowed his brows, after all, it’s his first time hearing about the Three Corpses, unsure if the old man’s words are true or just nonsense.

The old man knows as well, although Tie Dan is young, he has survived in the Jianghu without being fooled to death, obviously not a fool. He just smiled,

"After all, my Kongtong Mountain won’t fly away. Whenever Fellow Daoist understands and calculates clearly, come find me, Daoist Xuanzhen."

Tie Dan said coldly,

"Kongtong’s Daoist Xuanzhen, I will remember."

Therefore, the two bowed to each other, then Daoist Xuanzhen turned away, as if they were strangers, continued waiting in line...

After waiting for a while, suddenly there was a commotion ahead, then from the cloud, a gate of the Immortal Sect opened, Golden Dragon and Phoenix pulling a fragrant and treasure adorned carriage, flying out from Immortal Mountain Treasure Peak. So, those waiting outside understood, the talks with the Immortal Palace were done.

Thus, the Mountain Men entered in single file, tunneling and flying, stepping into the layers of cloud clusters.

Tie Dan blinked, finding himself entering a quiet pavilion transformed by Primordial Spirit Method.

Then a flash of Qing Guang, a projection of Divine Thought appeared to meet him.

"Greetings, I have come to thank you for assisting me in crossing the tribulation."

Lingxu’s Divine Thought also bowed,

"Sect Leader Xuantian, you are too kind. We’re of the same sect, sharing the same goals, these trivial matters do not need mentioning."

Tie Dan saw this projection is just a split of Lingxu’s Divine Thought, probably many negotiations are happening, and there’s nothing serious on his side, so he couldn’t handle it personally. He casually raised the Three Corpses Scripture in his hand,

"By the way, do you recognize this Daoist Book?"

Lingxu’s Divine Thought nodded,

"I recognize it, this book was written by me."

Tie Dan was momentarily surprised,

"You wrote it? Is it a Qingcheng Technique?"

Lingxu’s Divine Thought shook his head,

"No, the original Daoist Book was obtained from the Taixu Realm’s Ancient Daoist Collection, Wordless Heavenly Scripture.

I only observed and enlightened, then transcribed and organized it slightly, improving it according to the current Taiji Heaven’s timing. Finally, restored the Daoist Book, allowing this technique to reappear."

This technique is sold in the Yuntai Daoist Collection, you can exchange it with a hundred Soldier Repelling Coins."

Tie Dan never expected such a coincidence, curiously asked,

"Since it’s a transmission by the Sect Leader, may I ask if it’s true that the Three Corpses Split Body will replace and rebel against the main body, what the Three Corpses commit, has no relation to the person?"

Lingxu’s Divine Thought nodded, then shook his head,

"Corpse, the worm is, split body, not a human is, a split of oneself. The Three Corpses you refine are essentially just projections of yourself.

This technique uses the obsession of greed, anger, and ignorance as a guide, thus the split body’s nature might be especially assertive and biased, yet able to form a corporeal presence, lasting in the world.

But fundamentally, all actions by the Three Corpses are your desires, all intentions by the Three Corpses are your plans.

The corpse of the Three Corpses is your corpse, they can do what you can do, what you have planned they also think of.

If you switch places, acting as the Three Corpses, what you do would be no different.

Heart understanding spirit meeting, heart thought communicating, heart heart envisaging, like a second body without division.

Thus, it’s called Outer Body Incarnation."

Tie Dan understood.

In other words,

Daoist Xuanzhen’s Peng Ju corpse would plot assault and assassination on Tie Dan, indeed as Daoist Xuanzhen said, knowing such actions could provoke trouble in the Mystic Sect, creating disorder for self-profit.

But Peng Ju can scheme so far, ultimately still because Daoist Xuanzhen has such insight and calculation, he sees the Sword Sect’s weakness, sees the Mystic Sect’s power struggle, sees how assassinating Tie Dan can create chaos and opportunity, thus he had the same thought.

So you can say cause and effect do not bind him; after all, Daoist Xuanzhen truly did nothing, he just thought. But who knows if in his heart he instructed Peng Ju?

If he hadn’t thought of it, if he hadn’t given birth to a trace of killing intent, how would there be talk of cause and effect?

Even if Daoist Xuanzhen had emerged before Peng Ju acted, warning Tie Dan, stating his corpse would plot against him, be careful, that reluctantly could be considered unrelated to him.

But waiting until Tie Dan arduously battled and crossed this deadly tribulation, only then appear to shirk responsibility, really thinks too highly...

In short, a grudge was formed, a confrontation with Kongtong is inevitable.

"Swish."

Suddenly another Lingxu entered, snatched the Three Corpses Scripture from Tie Dan, waved away the Divine Thought projection, and tightly closed the pavilion door,

"Who gave this to you?"

Tie Dan did not intend to involve Lingxu in his grudge with Kongtong, even now belonging to Lingxu’s faction, still felt it childish to inform the Sect Leader of every fight. He shrugged,

"Let’s say it dropped from a boss."

Lingxu didn’t probe further, directly tucked the Three Corpses Scripture in his sleeve and exchanged it for another scripture.

"Don’t practice this, Three Corpses Scripture conflicts with Ruyi Scripture.

You want to practice a single-mindedness, Human Sword Unity to form Sword Intent. Practicing this requires a fickle mind, with soul divisions. Eventually leading to becoming possessed by a demon, cultivation regressing. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Luckily I have a new work here, it suits you best, take it."

Tie Dan didn’t really mind, he just wanted to ascertain Daoist Xuanzhen wasn’t deceiving him. So he glanced at the technique Lingxu exchanged...

"Blood Talisman Divine Sword Annotation"

"No way! Is this your authored technique!?"

"How not, I annotated it, that counts as authored."

Lingxu winked,

"Pretend with conviction. Anyway, familiarize yourself, prepare, soon we’ll be crusading against the Demon Sect, just when it’ll be useful."
