Immortal Burial: The Coffin Must Not Be Moved

The coffin looked nothing special on the outside; it was just an ordinary wooden coffin.

The wood used is common hardwood, which has no other special characteristics besides being a bit harder.

"A coffin? How come there's a coffin here?"

"I have a feeling something's off about it."

"How about we open the coffin and take a look?"

"..."

Those around who saw the coffin frowned, finding it very strange.

Some people thought of digging up the coffin and opening it to see what was buried inside.

However, some people find this very eerie and think it's best not to do it, lest it attract some strange things.

In the Immortal Realm of cultivation, even coffins are not something to be dealt with casually.

Not to mention coffins buried under Living Sacrifice Stele.

Everyone knows the impact the Living Sacrifice Stele had on the Luozhen Sect.

This thing is still buried under the Living Sacrifice Stele. I don't know how much time has passed, but the hardwood coffin doesn't show any signs of decay at all. It's very strange.

Although hardwood is hard, once it is cut down, it will rot within a few decades.

However, judging from the signs of age on the hardwood coffin, it was definitely more than just a few decades old.

Everyone was at a loss for what to do, so they all looked at Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing also looked conflicted at this moment.

This coffin is indeed eerie, but we can't just leave it here.

The more sinister the thing was, the more Li Yunjing wanted it to stay away from his residence.

Who would want to put something like that in their own space?

Just as Li Yunjing was struggling with this decision, Five Spirits Lord suddenly jumped out of the Five Aggregates Cauldron.

"Young Master, have you been plagued by something lately?" Five Spirits Lord first looked at the coffin, then at Li Yunjing, puzzled.

"What do you mean?" Now it was Li Yunjing's turn to be completely confused.

Five Spirits Lord said, "Young Master previously encountered the Living Sacrifice Stele, and now you've come across the Immortal Burial Coffin."

These two things are things that ordinary people might only encounter once in their entire lives, yet you, young master, have encountered two in such a short time, truly..."

"Do you know where this coffin came from?" Li Yunjing asked, seizing the key point.

"Of course." Five Spirits Lord nodded.

"This is the Immortal Burial Coffin, a spiritual coffin used by the Corpse Liberation Immortal to Corpse Liberation his own body and hold his physical form."

I hadn't noticed before that beneath this Living Sacrifice Stele lay a Immortal Burial Coffin.

Seeing this Immortal Burial Coffin, I finally understand.

The owner of this Immortal Burial Coffin buried himself here, using Living Sacrifice Stele as his tombstone to protect the Immortal Burial Coffin, so that he could successfully transcend Corpse Liberation an immortal.

However, since the Living Sacrifice Stele was destroyed, this thing was directly exposed in front of us.

If the young master really opens the Immortal Burial Coffin, his Corpse Liberation will fail.

"When that time comes, this guy's resentment will haunt the young master, and he'll probably be tormented to death by it."

"Corpse Liberation Immortal..."

Li Yunjing was very surprised after hearing this.

He had heard of this saying before; the White Bone Daoist had mentioned it.

Corpse Liberation Immortal is an alternative way to achieve immortality.

The normal way to become an immortal is through diligent cultivation, which eventually leads to Immortal Tribulation. Once you overcome this tribulation, you can become an immortal.

But this method of achieving immortality is very difficult.

Firstly, the cultivator's aptitude cannot be too low.

Otherwise, they wouldn't even qualify to attract Immortal Tribulation.

Secondly, the Immortal Tribulation is not something that can be overcome so easily.

Even if one is qualified to attract Immortal Tribulation, there is still a possibility that one might die under the Immortal Tribulation Immortal Tribulation because it is too powerful.

Therefore, those who are not qualified to become immortals, or those who are qualified but are afraid of the Immortal Tribulation, rack their brains to find other ways to become immortals.

Corpse Liberation is one of them.

Even the path of Corpse Liberation is divided into two: abandoning the physical body and illusory objects to become an immortal.

Abandoning the physical body is the true abandonment of the physical body, thereby allowing one's Primordial Spirit to ascend.

The intention behind this is to use the physical body as bait during the Tribulation Transcendence, drawing the attention of the Immortal Tribulation to the physical body, thus giving the Primordial Spirit the opportunity to ascend.

However, this method is still very difficult.

After all, cheating under the Immortal Tribulation is a matter of life and death; success is one thing, but failure means certain death.

Thus, the practice of creating immortal objects came into being.

This act is intended to use external objects to represent one's physical body, while the true self disappears into the background.

This method does not require undergoing the Immortal Tribulation, but it also has drawbacks, as it does not allow one to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

The Immortal Tribulation is the necessary path to enter the Immortal Realm; without undergoing the Immortal Tribulation, the Immortal Gate will not open.

Although it doesn't allow entry into the Immortal Realm, this method indirectly allows cultivators to touch the threshold of immortality, barely qualifying them as immortals.

In the past, many people in Tianyuan chose this method to become immortals.

However, those who achieve immortality in this way must eventually undergo a tribulation.

That means the fake body will be destroyed, which in turn will cause the real body to suffer as well.

The core of this method of achieving immortality is to use an external object to represent one's physical body.

The Corpse Liberation Immortal uses a special method to make an external object represent his physical body to feign death, thereby deceiving the Heavenly Dao.

The true body, however, will disappear and continue its cultivation.

However, external objects that serve as a substitute for a physical body are very easily destroyed.

Even an ordinary person could destroy it with a single blow of a hoe.

This was destined when one cultivated the Corpse Liberation Immortal.

Even if the Corpse Liberation Immortal hides the external objects that impersonate his physical body in various secret places, and even goes so far as to use all sorts of methods.

However, given enough time, the external objects that are supposed to be part of the physical body will be exposed in various ways.

Take, for example, the Immortal Burial Coffin right before our eyes.

According to Five Spirits Lord, the Immortal Burial Coffin contains a Corpse Liberation Immortal.

Of course, it was merely an external object used by the Corpse Liberation Immortal disguise his physical body; it was not his true form.

To protect this thing, the Corpse Liberation Immortal even specially obtained a Living Sacrifice Stele for its protection.

But now it's all been ruined by Li Yunjing.

With the Immortal Burial Coffin exposed, Li Yunjing could easily puncture the illusion of the Corpse Liberation Immortal if he so desired, thus revealing his true form.

In that case, the Corpse Liberation Immortal would undoubtedly die.

But Five Spirits Lord's words made Li Yunjing hesitate.

If this Corpse Liberation Immortal is killed, his resentment will haunt and torment Li Yunjing Li Yunjing.

This is not a good thing.

"Five Spirits Lord, can this Immortal Burial Coffin be moved? Or should it just stay here?" Li Yunjing asked.

Five Spirits Lord said, "You mustn't move. If you do, that Corpse Liberation Immortal will be exposed to the Heavenly Dao."

Judging from the appearance of this Immortal Burial Coffin, it must have existed for tens of thousands of years, so the strength of that Corpse Liberation Immortal must have been very strong.

He could definitely Curse you before he dies, but if I regain 20% of my power, you have nothing to worry about.

However, I am still some distance from recovering 20% of my strength, so young master, please do not act rashly.

Li Yunjing nodded slightly.

The conversation with the Five Spirits Lord was entirely conducted through telepathy and did not last very long.

Seeing that the others were still waiting for him to make a decision, Li Yunjing spoke up, "This coffin must not be touched; it is the Immortal Burial Coffin..."

Li Yunjing told everyone the origin of the Immortal Burial Coffin.

When the others learned that this was actually the spirit coffin containing the fake physical body of the Corpse Liberation Immortal, they all gasped in shock.

Most of the people present had heard about the Corpse Liberation Immortal.

If you don't know, just ask around, and you'll get a pretty good idea.

Therefore, disturbing this Immortal Burial Coffin means provoking an existence equivalent to True Immortal.

Even if this immortal can't even enter the Immortal Realm, in this lower realm, the Corpse Liberation Immortal is definitely a top-tier expert.

It's estimated that only Loose Immortal could rival him.

Everyone present agreed to Li Yunjing's proposal.

This Immortal Burial Coffin must not be touched; doing so will cause trouble.
