"That's fine."

Lord Wanshouyuan raised his hand, and Reincarnation Dao Rhyme condensed on his fingertips again.

It's just that compared to the time when I was doing it for Minghe, it seems to be a little less majestic in reshaping, and a little more precise in the meaning of Strip Away.

"Now that you have decided, I will help you eliminate the Good Corpse that relies on Purple Gold Alms Bowl and bring it back to its source.

However, although this process only targets one corpse, it will also damage Dao Foundation. The pain is inevitable, so you need to guard your mind."

Ran Deng Hearing this, his heart was filled with tears of gratitude, and he thanked him again and again:

"Thank you Sage! Thank you Sage for your compassion!

A poor man must guard his mind and endure everything!"

As long as he could still retain "Earth Lamp" Evil Corpse, and still retain some possible connection with the corpse-killing road and Earthly Dao, he would be happy with the pain!

He immediately sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and concentrated, taking the initiative to immerse himself in Primordial Spirit, communicating with the Good Corpse Clone that rested on Purple Gold Alms Bowl.

I saw a figure slowly emerging from the slightly dim Auspicious Cloud above his head.

This figure is very similar to Ran Deng.

However, his face has a strange look of "compassion" that seems to save all sentient beings but also contains a mechanical and rigid "compassion".

The whole body was covered with a faint layer of golden Buddha light mixed with sandalwood and secular Vow Power, and a virtual shadow of Purple Gold Alms Bowl was held in his hand.

It was Good Corpse that he chopped out with Purple Gold Alms Bowl.

This Good Corpse aura is completely different from the Evil Corpse that was cut out by Spirit Coffin Palace Lantern and wrapped around Netherworld Ghostfire. There is a vague feeling of repulsion between them.

"Power of Reincarnation, Trace Back to Source, destroy the false appearance and return to the true nature."

Lord Wanshouyuan recited the mantra, and his fingertips Reincarnation Dao Rhyme turned into a slender but extremely precise light.

Straight to the core of Ran Deng Good Corpse - the Corpse-Slaying Mark that is closely integrated with the origin of Purple Gold Alms Bowl!

"Huh--!" Ran Deng's whole body shook violently, and he let out a painful groan, and his face instantly turned gray.

Different from the severe pain of complete collapse when Minghe Good and Evil Corpses is wiped out at the same time, this is a targeted, bone-deep Strip Away pain!

He could clearly feel that part of his Primordial Spirit was closely connected with Purple Gold Alms Bowl and the incarnation of the "good thoughts".

I am being "gouged out" by that cold, precise and irresistible Power of Reincarnation!

Under the Reincarnation dim light, the Good Corpse Clone let out a silent cry. The Buddha's light Vow Power on it quickly dimmed and dissipated, and the stiff and compassionate face melted like wax.

In the end, the complex Corpse-Slaying Mark that formed the core of its existence completely collapsed and turned into nothingness.

The shadow of Good Corpse disappeared, leaving only a relatively pure golden light of the Buddha belonging to Purple Gold Alms Bowl's body and a trace of mixed energy of faith Vow Power, as well as the projection of Purple Gold Alms Bowl itself.

A volume of Power of Reincarnation cleanses this mass of energy and projection, removing all the personal imprints of Ran Deng.

It returned to the relatively pure original state of the spiritual treasure, and then slowly sank into the Ran Deng Primordial Spirit depths.

Reestablish contact with the real Purple Gold Alms Bowl body, but it is no longer "Corpse God".

But it is just a Innate Spiritual Treasure that has been refined but has no corpse Karma.

The whole process was much shorter than Minghe's time, but it also severely damaged Ran Deng's vitality. His breath dropped significantly, the color on his face faded, and his thin body trembled slightly.

But he forced himself to calm down, and there was a sickly excitement and relief in his eyes.

He could feel that the sluggishness and disharmony that had always existed faintly due to the conflict between Good and Evil Corpses's origins had been reduced by most!

Although Dao Foundation was damaged and his cultivation level dropped, the feeling of having his "mistakes" partially corrected made him feel refreshed.

More importantly, the Spirit Coffin Palace Lantern that entrusted Evil Corpse, its Netherworld Ghostfire seemed to be a little more active and clear because of it, and the connection with his Primordial Spirit seemed to be purer and closer.

He subconsciously sensed the "Earth Lamp" Evil Corpse.

I vaguely feel that it really seems to have a faint, vague resonance with the surrounding Earth Veins and this Longevity Mountain Earth Dao Destiny!

"It's done... it's really done!" Ran Deng was ecstatic in his heart, and regardless of his weakness, he prostrated himself before Lord Wanshouyuan again. "Ran Deng thanks Sage for the kindness of rebuilding! This kindness will never be forgotten!"

Lord Wanshouyuan nodded slightly and took back Power of Reincarnation. His eyes immediately turned to Queen Mother of the West, who had been waiting for a long time and had a complicated expression.

Queen Mother of the West saw Lord Wanshouyuan looking at him and knew it was his turn.

She calmed down her mind, stood up gracefully, and saluted Lord Wanshouyuan, her voice clear and sweet. "Yuanjun Sage."

Lord Wanshouyuan looked at her and said directly:

"Queen Mother of the West, what you cultivate is Pure Yin Dao, and it has a deep foundation.

However, although your corpse-slaying spiritual treasures are all treasures with pure Yin attributes, they do not come from the same source."

Queen Mother of the West felt a shiver in his heart, as expected.

She knew her own situation well, the two pure Yin spirit treasures used to kill corpses.

One was bred from the origin of West Kunlun, and the other has an old relationship with Great Yin Star. Although they are both pure yin, their origins are indeed different.

It seems that what I am facing is a situation similar to Ran Deng but slightly better - the attributes of the spirit treasures are similar, but not of the same origin.

"However," Lord Wanshouyuan changed the topic slightly and pointed out the key difference.

"Although your two treasures have different origins, they belong to the same category of the 'Pure Yin' Dao. Their attributes are similar and there is no fundamental conflict.

Compared to fellow Daoist Ran Deng's two unrelated treasures, or Fellow Daoist Minghe's killing sword and Blood Sea's deflection, your situation is really rare.

If you can find another 'Pure Yin' Innate Spiritual Treasure of sufficient grade and pure attributes, use these three treasures of 'same attributes' to kill Three Corpses.

When trying Three Corpses Unification in the future, there are still risks and obstacles due to the differences in origin.

It's not as smooth as the real Three Treasures of the Same Origin, but it already has a slight possibility of success. At least, it's not a dead end."

Queen Mother of the West heard this, her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up!

If the attributes are consistent, it is not a dead end! There is still a possibility of success!

This is much better than Ran Deng's situation of "Earth Lamp" with misty hope and Purple Gold Alms Bowl with no hope!

As long as she can find another top-notch pure Yin spirit treasure...

But then, real problems came to mind.

Top-notch Innate Spiritual Treasure with pure attributes is hard to come by, let alone one with specific "pure yin" attributes?

Among Primordial Wilderness, there are only a handful of known treasures of this kind, and most of them already have owners or their whereabouts are unknown. Looking for the third one is also like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Lord Wanshouyuan looked at her eyes that were brightening and weighing, and continued to say calmly:

"Therefore, before fellow Daoists, there are two paths.

One, continue to search for the third pure Yin spirit treasure and try to complete the road of killing corpses. Although there are risks, there is a chance of enlightenment. The second one,"

His voice paused slightly, with a hint of insight:

"If you find it difficult to search, or are worried about the risk of unity in the future, you can also choose 'Break and Then Establish' like Fellow Daoist Minghe.

I can take action to wipe out the two corpses you have already killed, and help you Strip Away Corpse-Slaying Mark and liberate Chunyin Dao Foundation.

At that time, fellow Daoists may try to use the pure pure Yin law, in line with the principles of Extreme Yin, Return to the Hidden, and nourishment among Earthly Dao, and follow the path of Laws Enlightenment.

West Kunlun Earth Veins can help fellow Daoists.

Although this road is equally long, the foundation is pure and there is no worry about the shackles of the 'same origin'."

Two ways! One is to continue to bet on the "sliver of possibility" on the road to killing corpses, but you need to find the third top-level pure Yin spirit treasure, and the future Three Corpses Unification risk is unknown.

The other is to completely turn around and embrace the road of Earthly Dao and the law, but you have to endure the pain of "breaking the establishment" and give up the previous accumulation of corpse killing.

Queen Mother of the West is silent. This choice is more complicated than Minghe originally, and has more room than Ran Deng at this moment.

The expression on her graceful face changed, and it was obvious that she was undergoing a fierce weighing in her heart.

As Head of Female Immortals, she has the foundation of West Kunlun, with the blessing of Fortune, and her foundation is not comparable to Ran Deng.

Should she take the risk of "breaking the foundation"? Or should she use her own resources and connections to try her best to find the third pure Yin spirit treasure?

The former is painful but may be more secure, while the latter retains the existing results but has little hope and a dangerous end...
