But the problem was that Shen Gui still did not know which Great Dao he had mastered.

Thus, he could only choose to sever the three corpses.

Of the three corpses, the Self Obsession had been the first he severed. Later, when he went to the Six Paths of Reincarnation to invite Houtu to join the Heavenly Court, Houtu had insisted that he take the position of Great Emperor Fengdu of the underworld. Perhaps because he was lazy enough, he severed his Evil Corpse on the spot and left it in the underworld as Great Emperor Fengdu.

And in this Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods, regardless of his purpose, he had entered the tribulation personally as the supreme Heavenly Emperor, experienced a cycle of reincarnation himself, and endured the tribulation on behalf of all living beings. That was undoubtedly an immense act of goodness.

Under such circumstances, once the Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods ended, victory or defeat aside, severing his Good Corpse was practically
