The Good Corpse that is severed by the Method of Slaying Three Corpses is the aspect of the primordial spirit of a Quasi-Sage that tends towards goodness.

Although Qing Tongjun was the benevolent corpse of Dong Wang Gong, he was even more lenient and benevolent than Dong Wang Gong.

Even though the two were originally one, Green Boy Lord disliked East King Duke's behavior.

But now that the East King Duke has died, Green Boy Lord has no choice but to consider his own future.

Unfortunately, as Good Corpse, Green Boy Lord's spirit and soul were incomplete, leaving him with little room for redemption.

Looking at the sea shimmering with the golden light of the setting sun, Green Boy Lord murmured to himself.

"It seems that the only way to recover is to wait until the next time the Sage of the Purplexiao Palace preaches and then ask Sage Hongjun for help."

He was powerless to change himself and could only place his hopes on Sage.

Just then, a clear and melodious Daoist Dao Sound came from above Green Boy Lord's head.

"Found you!"

Upon hearing this, Green Boy Lord was startled and looked up.

Then a streak of dark gold sword light descended from the sky, bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Its speed was extremely fast; it had barely entered Green Boy Lord's eyes when it was already right next to him.

They didn't give Green Boy Lord a chance to react or dodge at all.

The Dark Sword Light pierced straight into Green Boy Lord's crown chakra.

In an instant, it completely extinguished all the life force within Green Boy Lord's body.

The already incomplete spirit and soul immediately shattered and dissipated.

This sword light had completely annihilated Green Boy Lord's soul.

At this moment, the Colorful Cloud in the sky dispersed, revealing the figures of Luo Qing, Yan Sheng, and Long Ling.

Green Boy Lord's life force had been extinguished, leaving only a sliver of light, which caught sight of Luo Qing wielding the Mysterious Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword.

And the Innate Spirit Sword left behind by the East King Duke.

"I see!"

Green Boy Lord instantly understood why someone had come to this place.

As the Good Corpse of the East King Duke, Green Boy Lord naturally recognized Luo Qing's identity.

However, Green Boy Lord still had doubts in his heart.

He didn't understand why Luo Qing had come to hunt him down.

Green Boy Lord asked Luo Qing in the sky with a puzzled expression:

"Fellow Luo Qing, may I ask you to clarify something for me? As far as I know, the East King Duke has no enmity with you."

Luo Qing stared expressionlessly at Green Boy Lord life force was rapidly fading away.

I wouldn't mind answering the questions of a dying person.

"You shouldn't have come to Kunlun Mountain, seeking to establish Immortal Court with Fairy Xihua."

Upon hearing this, Green Boy Lord suddenly understood.

"So that's how it is! So that's how it is! This is the will of Heaven, and the will of Heaven cannot be defied!"

"I am Green Boy Lord, thank you for enlightening me, Fellow Luo Qing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Green Boy Lord bowed deeply to Luo Qing from afar in gratitude.

His life force had completely dissipated before Green Boy Lord could even get up.

A gentle sea breeze blew by, and Green Boy Lord silently transformed into specks of Spiritual Light within the wind, shattering and dissipating.

From that time on, the East King Duke (Green Boy Lord) ceased to exist in the world.

In the clouds, Long Ling watched as her master casually slashed and destroyed the Good Corpse of the East King Duke with a single sword stroke.

But still harboring doubts, he asked Luo Qing:

"Master, I observe that this Green Boy Lord and East King Duke share similar auras, yet their words, actions, and personalities are completely different. Why is this?"

"This is the profound Method of Slaying Three Corpses. The Good Corpse represents the goodness in one's heart, the Evil Corpse represents the evil in one's heart, and the Self Corpse is a reflection of the self in one's heart."

Not only are the three vastly different from each other, but they are also quite different from the original entity.

Luo Qing patiently instructed his two apprentices.

Although Yan Sheng and Long Ling had heard of the Method of Slaying Three Corpses in the Purplexiao Palace.

However, due to his weak cultivation level, he still found it difficult to understand the essence of this Method of Proving the Dao, hence the confusion caused by the Long Ling.

After answering Long Ling's questions, Luo Qing turned his gaze back to the small island below.

With a wave of his hand, Luo Qing instantly erased all traces of Green Boy Lord on the Immortal Island.

Qing Tong Jun is the benevolent corpse of Dong Wang Gong. Although he is kind, generous, and virtuous, he is completely different from Dong Wang Gong's true form.

However, Luo Qing showed no mercy and killed him with a single sword strike, eliminating any future trouble.

After eliminating the backup plan left by the East King Duke, Luo Qing led his two disciples back to Kunlun Mountain.

Beyond the Primordial Wilderness heavens, in the endless void.

The Sage Hongjun sat upright in the Purplexiao Palace, showing no intention of interfering in the war between the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court and the Penglai Immortal Court.

Seeing the Immortal Court defeated, the East King Duke dead, and even his remaining Good Corpse destroyed by Luo Qing.

A look of regret flashed across the eyes of the Sage Hongjun.

Ancestor Hongjun has never gone against the will of Heaven; since he began cultivating the Dao, he has always acted in accordance with the natural order.

The downfall and death of the East King Duke was the will of Heaven.

"What a pity!"

With a sigh, the Sage Hongjun's eyes brightened slightly as he looked across the entire Primordial World.

What he saw was a vast and boundless world, which, in the eyes of the Sage Hongjun, transformed into countless colorful Dao Resonance.

With a wave of his Daoist robe, the Sage Hongjun caused most of the countless colors to vanish, leaving only a dozen or so.

With the complete demise of the East King Duke, the green Dao Resonance among the more than ten colors is slowly weakening.

As he gazed at the ever-changing, colorful Dao Diagram, the Sage Hongjun pondered deeply.

Among the Four Spirits of Heaven-Opening, the Wind Spirit Great Dao Great Dao weakened severely after the Wind Spirit Tiger Clan was destroyed.

During the Kalpa Tribulation of the Three Races, the Ancestor Dragon, the Yuanfeng, and the Shi Qilin perished, and the three races were severely damaged.

The Source of All Water collapsed, the Canghai Sea divided into four parts, and the Western Earth Vein Ancestral Root was severed.

This led to the weakening of both the Water Spirit and Earth Spirit Great Dao.

The Fire Spirit Great Dao, which had not suffered any loss of fire veins and had only weakened slightly, was affected by the rise of Flame Emperor Luo Qing.

This made the Great Dao of Fire stand out among the Four Spirits Great Dao, leaving the other three Spirit Great Dao far behind.

Later, the Earth Spirit Great Dao gained some momentum and was not overtaken by the Fire Spirit Great Dao.

However, the Four Spirits Great Dao that suppressed the Primordial Wilderness had become unbalanced.

The rise of the Great Dao of Fire has also led to the risk of imbalance in the Five Elements Great Dao, the foundation of all things in the Primordial Wilderness.

There is currently no sign of the Great Dao being restored.

The Wood Great Dao fell into decline due to the death of the Wood Duke, the East King Duke, and lost its chance to rise again in a short period of time.

Fortunately, the Metal and Earth elements remain relatively stable and can maintain a balance with the Great Dao of Fire.

Otherwise, if the Four Spirits become unbalanced, the Five Elements will likely also become disordered.

"The Primordial Origin cannot be too strong, nor can it be too weak. How to balance the Five Elements, the Four Spirits, Yin Yang requires careful consideration."

Gazing at the shimmering, multicolored Spiritual Light within the Dao Diagram, Sage Hongjun fell into deep thought.

Luo Qing was unaware that by eliminating the possibility of the East King Duke's resurrection, he had caused the Sage Hongjun some trouble.

At this moment, Luo Qing was on his way back to Kunlun Mountain with his two disciples.

Witness a grand battle between immortals and gods in the Eastern Sea.

On one side were the Water Spirit Holy Mother and the Dragon Race, who had recently evacuated from Penglai Immortal Island.

One side consisted of many immortals and gods who had come to take advantage of the chaos and rob the Dragon Race.

At that time, there were two Quasi-Sage and more than ten Daluo Golden Immortal who came in pursuit of the Dragon Race.

The two sides fought each other in the Eastern Sea for more than a month.

Nearly ten Daluo Golden Immortal have died in the battle, and it's not over yet.

Luo Qing happened to run into them on his way back to the mountain.
