The Immortal-Demon War had ended, and the calamity aura filling the skies quietly dispersed. The Immortal Court had lost, but the Demon Clan had not won either, suffering equally devastating losses. Taiyi had lost half of his Grand Unity Dao Fruit, and that incompleteness would permanently shackle his path of cultivation.
Inside Pangu Hall, Dijiang and the others wore grave expressions, though they secretly counted themselves fortunate. Thankfully, they had not listened to Gonggong and gone to join the battle in hopes of picking up gains. Had they done so, the Witch Clan would have become sacrifices to this calamity as well.
Above the battlefield ruins, Hongjun's gaze fell upon the Heavenly Emperor as he asked gravely, "Heavenly Emperor, East King Duke has had Hunyuan Heavenly Dao Power enter his body. Can he still be saved?"
Li Fan frowned slightly before speaking slowly. "An Origin Dao Injury, backlash from the formation, and damage to his Dao Fruit... Even if there is a way, the outcome likely will not be ideal."
Xihua pressed anxiously, "Then what exactly is the method?"
Li Fan's tone was solemn. "His Good Corpse incarnation must be transformed into an independent individual."
"His original body must be left for Reincarnation, to be reborn in the future. Furthermore, after reincarnating, there is a high chance that his memories will be lost."
Once the Heavenly Emperor said this, everyone understood: once the original body and incarnation were severed, East King Duke's fortune and origin would be completely transferred to the incarnation.
Once given away, they could never be taken back.
Yet East King Duke suddenly burst into laughter, sounding instead relieved. "Then let us proceed as the Heavenly Emperor says! Being able to recover my life is already a tremendous blessing. I must also thank Saint Hongjun for intervening."
