If they could devour Chu Yi and reach the realm of the Mixed Yuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, Slaughter and Destruction would not bother thinking so much.
"Wait." Chu Yi hurriedly called for them to stop.
He analyzed the situation before him.
The four God-Demons had come here to stop Pangu. However, Pangu was in seclusion, so they had set their sights on him, Chu Yi, intending to absorb him and reach a higher realm.
If he could give them a path to sainthood... then the problem would more or less be solved.
"Leave behind your last words and bid this world farewell." Slaughter God-Demon was already covered in slaughter laws, preparing to deal with the Chaos Pearl at full strength.
"You God-Demons have slaughtered and devoured one another, yet none of you managed to take that step... Do you really think devouring a mere embryo like me will let you cross it?"
Chu Yi calmly shot back.
"Haha, I thought you had some profound insight. Turns out you just want to delay your death." Slaughter God-Demon laughed. "You are an embryo nurtured by the Primordial Chaos Azure Lotus, so naturally your effects are different. Whether it works or not, I will only know after devouring you."
"You truly are... foolish and ignorant!" Chu Yi's voice was cold.
That left the four God-Demons completely thrown off.
No, you were just a tiny embryo. How dare you speak to us like that?
Who gave you that courage?
Chu Yi quickened his pace. "You must have witnessed my elder brother's power.
"I share the same origin as my elder brother. How could I possibly be inferior?
"You attack me so rashly. Is that not foolish?"
The four God-Demons looked at one another.
Destruction God-Demon said mockingly, "If you had the strength to deal with us, would we still be standing here wasting words with you?"
Chu Yi said coldly, "Saying that only makes you seem even more ignorant.
"Though I have yet to take form, my divine sense has already formed, and my intelligence has awakened. I can take form at any time! The reason I have not been born is that I have yet to reach the height of Brother Pangu!
"But if you insist on forcing me, what harm is there in being born early?
"I may not compare to my elder brother, but I can still wield half of his strength!
"By then, with the Chaos Pearl, I can hold out until Brother Pangu emerges from seclusion!
"Once Brother Pangu emerges, all of you will die!!"
At those words, the four God-Demons looked troubled.
What the kid said did make sense...
"Then you must die all the more!"
Slaughter God-Demon's slaughter aura twisted the chaos around them. "If we allow you to continue gestating, there will be two Pangus in the future. Sooner or later, our chaos will be split apart by you two. Better to strike first and strangle you in the cradle!"
Such a powerful slaughter aura—this kid must be Slaughter God-Demon... Sorry, Brother, staying alive comes first... Chu Yi thought to himself before saying:
"No, you are mistaken. My elder brother and I have never shared the same views!
"I have always opposed splitting open chaos! After all, chaos nurtured me. Chaos is my home! If chaos is split apart, my home will be gone."
The four God-Demons clearly did not believe him.
Chu Yi continued, "In truth, my elder brother and I were both ordained by the Great Dao. If you kill me, you will be cutting off chaos's future."
Hmm?
Cutting off chaos's future?
What grand words from this kid!
"Kid, do you take us for embryos without awakened intelligence? Who would believe such words?" Time God-Demon narrowed his eyes, though his gaze toward Chu Yi was extremely sharp. "Which one of us does not have the Great Dao as our foundation?"
"My elder brother possesses the Fortune Jade Disc, which records the three thousand Great Daos, each one a path to proving the Dao as a Mixed Yuan Great Luo Golden Immortal! Beyond those, there is another path to proving the Dao." Chu Yi spoke slowly.
"This path has been engraved in my mind ever since I developed divine sense... You may regard it as an innate divine ability bestowed upon me by the Great Dao!"
At those words, the four God-Demons' bodies trembled slightly!
Could there truly be another path that would allow them to cultivate to the realm of the Mixed Yuan Great Luo Golden Immortal?
"What path is it?" Destruction God-Demon could hardly conceal the excitement in his eyes.
"You had better not deceive us. Otherwise, even if you risk being born early and possess half your elder brother's strength, we will join forces and kill you!" Space God-Demon had gone mad as well.
Seeing their reactions, Chu Yi secretly rejoiced.
"This method is called..." He paused, then continued, "the Three Corpses Dao-Proving Method."
Chu Yi guessed that the three thousand God-Demons possessed physical bodies and primordial spirits... so they should have three corpses as well.
If he could successfully foist the Three Corpses Method onto them... their strength would weaken...
Haha!
This was indeed a path to sainthood, but to truly become a saint, one would still need Primordial Purple Qi and merit!
Chaos had yet to be opened, and the three thousand Great Daos of chaos were still present. Primordial Purple Qi would not be hard to find, but merit was exceedingly difficult to obtain.
Therefore, cultivating the Three Corpses Method would only weaken them.
After all, they were Mixed Yuan Golden Immortals. Severing one corpse would weaken their strength by one portion!
Once they severed all three corpses, they would become Three Corpses quasi-saints... They would absolutely no longer possess the glory of Mixed Yuan Golden Immortals.
Unless they could cultivate until the three corpses became one!
But Chu Yi believed that day would never come. Once his elder brother awoke, he would chop them all to pieces.
How would you respond to this indirect move to weaken the God-Demons?
"Three Corpses? Explain it carefully."
The four God-Demons listened with rapt attention, golden light shining in their eyes.
This... was their first time hearing of the "Three Corpses." It seemed unfamiliar yet novel.
If this method could truly allow them to prove the Dao, there was no harm in trying it.
"Considering that you and I were all born from chaos and share some connection, I will not keep anything hidden!"
Chu Yi explained slowly, "Severing the three corpses does not mean killing physical corpses. It means stripping away the three obsessions within the primordial spirit... that bind the Dao heart.
"They are called the evil corpse, the good corpse, and the self corpse.
"The evil corpse carries obsessions such as greed, anger, delusion, jealousy, and brutality. This obsession is burdened with extremely heavy selfish desires.
"The good corpse carries obsessions such as compassion, benevolence, righteousness, and pity. It is easily bound by many entanglements.
"The self corpse is also the most difficult obsession to sever! For example, 'proving the Dao as a Mixed Yuan Great Luo Golden Immortal' is your self-obsession. If you cannot sever such obsessions completely, they will trap your understanding and obscure the Great Dao.
"My method is to sever the obsessions of the three corpses, allowing the heart to become clear and behold the Great Dao.
"Remember, the three corpses must be entrusted to an innate spiritual treasure or an innate supreme treasure. Otherwise, the obsessions will dissipate and flow back into the primordial spirit... and all efforts will ultimately come to nothing..."
"Once the three corpses are severed, the Dao heart will become clear and the Great Dao will reveal itself. When your three corpses become one, the Great Dao may be attained."
Chu Yi's words left the four God-Demons stunned.
But the difficulty involved was immense!
For example, Slaughter's obsession with slaughter and Destruction's obsession with destruction had long become inseparable from them.
For the two of them, their evil corpses would likely be even harder to sever than their self corpses.
"Space, try this little embryo's method. If he dares deceive us, we will make him vanish in body and soul!"
Slaughter God-Demon said coldly.
Trying it would cost them nothing!
If this little embryo's method was real, then once he cultivated to the realm of the Mixed Yuan Great Luo Golden Immortal, why would he fear Pangu?
