Starting Cultivation During a Trip

The Three Corpses are the great tribulation of becoming an Immortal, the true demon of the Great Dao.

After Zhang Fan merged with the Divine, he became the Three Corpses Calamity. His Primordial Spirit turned extremely peculiar, forged into the Divine Demon Holy Embryo, sealed the Three Corpses Illuminating Fate, and through the integration of both techniques, he realized some mysteries.

If thoughts are the beginning tribulation of cultivation, then the Three Corpses are the final tribulation.

The Primordial Spirit is clear, life becomes void, and ultimately it’s hard to achieve even a tenth of completion.

Moreover, between beginning and end, the Primordial Spirit has many disasters, inverting Yin and Yang, disrupting cultivation, leading to a place of no return from myriad tribulations, with no chance of advancing to Immortality.

These myriad disasters, hidden between beginning and end, born of the Primordial Spirit, are the demon.

The demon of the Divine Demon.

Through comprehending the Three Corpses Illuminating Fate, Zhang Fan instead gained new understanding of the Divine Demon Holy Embryo.

What is the Divine Demon Holy Embryo?

The Divine is the mystery of heaven and earth, seizing it to return to Innate.

The Demon is the calamity of cultivation, passing through it brings creation.

The deeper the mystery, the greater the calamity; the greater the calamity, the greater the creation.

These two are like Yin and Yang, like fate’s disasters, like life and death, close to nothingness, two sides of the same coin, existing mutually dependent.

Seize the mystery, return to Innate, pass through calamity, inherit creation, that is to transcend beyond the Divine and Demon, becoming the Holy Embryo.

To cultivate to this point, the Divine Demon Holy Embryo is truly a great success.

”The Primordial Spirit is Innate, descending into the muddy Red Dust, there are calamities...” Zhang Fan murmured softly.

The Three Corpses are the greatest illness within the Primordial Spirit.

However, beyond this, every person’s Primordial Spirit harbors numerous disasters, unseen, unreachable.

Just like unnecessary bacteria hidden within the Red Dust, once the Primordial Spirit descends into Red Dust, it becomes infected, breeding many disasters.

Those ”bacteria,” ”disasters” hidden within the Primordial Spirit, are the demon.

Rumbling...

Black fire rages, merging into the endless mist, coalescing into a sea of flames.

Rosen strolls in, his body incredibly strong, thriving and decaying in an instant, life and death together, the new body seems immune to harm, unaffected by fire and water.

This is the balance of life and death, neither increased nor diminished, neither damaged nor injured.

”Jia Sheng Gui Si... Rosen, you have yet to truly master this technique.” Zhang Fan muttered sternly.

If truly mastered, it transcends life and death, neither life nor death, neither death nor life, there is no balance of life and death.

Such a scene is unimaginable and incomprehensible to the mundane.

”Zhang Fan, you cannot kill me, it’s a foregone defeat!” Rosen said in a deep voice.

He cannot break Zhang Fan’s Divine Demon Holy Embryo, but Zhang Fan also cannot kill him, in the midst of life and death, he can outlast him to death.

Just as Rosen said, life and death are his arena.

”This is the true usage of the Divine Demon Holy Embryo!”

Zhang Fan softly muttered, his Primordial Spirit soared to the sky, Black and White Qi swirling, suddenly white light blazed like a sun high in the sky.

Instantly, wherever the white light illuminated in Luoying Mountain, all Primordial Spirits had no place to hide, all under Zhang Fan’s observation.

”This is...”

At this moment, everyone’s expression changed, feeling as if their Primordial Spirit was enveloped, spied upon, and connected by an intangible force at the Spirit Platform...

That force is Innate, irresistible, like a god looking down on the Mortal World, like a Reversing Technique turning the Primordial Spirit.

”Divine Candle Illumination!”

Rosen’s eyes suddenly sank, in an instant, his Primordial Spirit seemed exposed in broad daylight, the heavenly principles clear and evident, shining like the eye of life, profound as being inescapable by the Divine Demon, nothing left as a secret.

He knew that the Divine Demon Holy Embryo is the supreme technique of the Primordial Spirit, once mastered, the Primordial Spirit reverses to Innate, becoming unimaginably powerful, all Primordial Spirits before it have nowhere to hide.

”Zhang Fan, even if your Primordial Spirit is vast, I control life and death, I cannot be killed by you.” Rosen said deeply.

Competing Primordial Spirits, he certainly couldn’t compete with Zhang Fan, but he had already entered the realm where life and death are balanced, death becomes life, life becomes death, and yet unafraid.

”Rosen, you should have heard this phrase.” Zhang Fan said calmly and sternly.

”What phrase?”

”The higher the Dao, the higher the demon!”

Rumbling...

As soon as the words fell, Black and White Qi boiled again, the black stretched across, rising between heaven and earth.

”Demon Heart Abyss!”

Buzz...

Chaotic black like night, like thick ink, seeped from Zhang Fan’s Primordial Spirit, overwhelming and raging in all directions, the terrifying pressure made everyone change color with fear.

At this moment, all their Primordial Spirits were exposed under Divine Candle Illumination, having nowhere to hide, that ink-like chaotic black descended again, making them feel deep fear and despair.

The smear of chaotic black seemed like an abyss wanting to bury everything.

Even after cultivating for centuries, one must be entombed in this realm.

That is the calamity of cultivation.

That is the fate of the Primordial Spirit.

”Between the Divine and Demon... between the Divine and Demon... has his Divine Demon Holy Embryo reached great success?” Meng Qiwu shouted inwardly.

She knew Zhang Fan practiced the Divine Demon Holy Embryo, also aware he was trapped in the Great Night of Darkness tribulation, yet to fully overcome it.

But even if Zhang Fan had crossed the tribulation, he had merely passed through one Great Night, could the Divine Demon Holy Embryo after one tribulation have such power?

This is simply incredible.

His technique, his Dao, seems distinct and different from ever before and of past predecessors.

”White within black as the Pill Mother, the Divine harboring the demon transforming the Holy Embryo!”

Rumbling...

Chaotic black descended like an abyss, covering the region shrouded in dense mist, nearly a kilometer in radius, completely engulfing Rosen’s body.

He stood still, as if rooted, yet his Primordial Spirit involuntarily left the brow’s Spirit Platform, falling into that Chaotic Black Abyss.

”Zhang Fan...” Rosen’s Primordial Spirit throbbed, like sinking into a quagmire, uncontrollably sinking into the depths of the Chaotic Black Abyss.
