Omnipotent Sage

In this way, if there were no special encounters, the power of Outer-body Incarnation would no longer be able to develop. It would only serve as a backup plan to escape from the Golden Book of Fate. When the body and soul were about to perish, Outer-body Incarnation helped to retain a bit of Genuine Spirit and prevented it from being controlled. It was still unsure about how much combat capability it had.

Later on, people gradually discovered that this could be developed further using some special techniques, so as to cultivate some power in incarnation and turn it into a good source of self-help. However, it would be extremely hard to do that.

What kind of Dharma Laksana True Body you practiced depended largely on your cultivation method.

For example, Zhou Bao was practicing Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. By right the Dharma Laksana that he was cultivating should be a Fire Dragon, or at least, one of the Nine Forms of Real Dragon. But he possessed the remains of Innate Deity and at the same time found the Primordial Fierce Beast, Demonic Ape Zhuyan, so he was able to get the Real Body of Zhuyan. If he hadn’t found the Demonic Ape Zhuyan, the other thing he could cultivate would be the Real Body of Dragon Chimera. It was due to this that he had the Real Body of Zhuyan and his Second Primordial Spirit could be the Real Body of Primitive Dragon Chimera. He had been extremely lucky to receive such favorable opportunities. Other people would have been lucky if they could successfully practice the Dharma Laksana True Body of their bodies. How often do they get the chance to practice their Second Primordial Spirit as well?

Everyone knew that the Second Primordial Spirit and Outer-body Incarnation were incredible Divine Senses and had magical properties. But it was hard to practice them to perfection. For all the hard practice they put in, all they achieved was just an incarnation less powerful than the people themselves. Therefore those incarnations could only be used as a means to escape from catastrophes.

No one could be as lucky as Zhou Bao to have the incarnation of the Primordial Fierce Beast in such a short time.

It was because the incarnation of Zhou Bao’s Second Primordial Spirit was too powerful that Zhou Bao was able to sense that something was not quite right.

It seemed that this incarnation of Second Primordial Spirit was not working in harmony with him.

In other words, his Second Primordial Spirit had been affected by the Primitive Dragon Chimera itself, and it became extremely brutal and cold-blooded. That brutal and cold-blooded spirit had even taken over his spirit, suddenly turning him likewise into a brutal and cold-blooded being. The killing intent surged from his body.

“Oh, no! I almost lost a grip on my spirit!”

Just when the fierce power in Zhou Bao was about to explode and turned him into a mass murderer, suddenly a stream of gentle power flew out between his eyebrows and calmed down his murderous intent.

“Ah!”

Zhou Bao took a deep breath and expired again. With this breath, the brutal and cold-blooded intent inside him was completely dissolved.

He suddenly raised his head and looked right into the cold eyes of the incarnation of Dragon Chimera. The eyes of incarnation of Dragon Chimera flashed and a sparkle of light flashed through those dark golden eyes. Feeling that something was not quite right, Zhou Bao did not hesitate and looked up. A sanguine ball erupted from his hand and shot right between the eyebrows of his second incarnation.

That red ball was one of the three Fiery Eyes which he had taken from Yu Taicang. When the Fiery Eyes was injected into his incarnation, the second incarnation spurted Demonic Fire and pushed it into the Fiery Eyes. All of a sudden, the Fiery Eyes flashed and started to take in and send out the essence of the world. In a moment, the Fiery Eyes had been cultivated into an External Elixir.

“Excellent, excellent, excellent!” Zhou Bao couldn’t help repeating himself. Happiness was written all over his face.

Back in the old days, he had spent considerable time in turning the Fiery Eyes into an External Elixir. But now, since the incarnation of his Dragon Chimera had passed the Thunder Tribulation and possessed the power of a Genuine Immortal, an External Elixir could be cultivated without using any excessive power and could be done in a blink of an eye.

Once the Fiery Eyes was practiced into an External Elixir by Demonic Fire, it completely disappeared into the incarnation between its eyebrows leaving no trace behind. That incarnation was transformed into a black flame and smoke which became a black fire merging into the Fiery Eyes between Zhou Bao’s eyebrows.

Zhou Bao’s eyes flashed as his Second Primordial Spirit, the Outer-body Incarnation, was magically transformed into a floating black flame which burned slowly above the Pure Yang Waterball.

It was only now that Zhou Bao finally felt a sense of relief.

It was still a treasured experience for him to have undertaken a Thunder Tribulation with his Second Primordial Spirit. The flows of Divine Qi generated from the shattered space when it had been ripped out by the thunder benefited him a lot too.

“It is Divine Spirit Qi. Though it is the same as the Divine Spirit Qi in Yunfei, it has larger quantities which is of great help to my Dharma power. Now that my incarnation has also been through the Thunder Tribulation and possesses the power of a Genuine Immortal, I can be called an Immortal as well. Well, this Second Primordial Spirit was created to get rid of Golden Book of Fate, but now I have already possessed the cultivation of a Genuine Immortal, I don’t have to be a legal Immortal. However, I have undergone the Divine Tribulation here. Though I did not make too much noise, it will still be noticed by others. I have to go now.”

Thinking to himself, Zhou Bao sliced through the hollow space and vanished. A few seconds later, the space where Zhou Bao had been was ripped apart and a solemn man dressed in gold appeared. He looked around and snorted coldly. Then he returned into the hollow and left Misty Mountain.

“There is really no necessity to go back to Zhuzhao City. It’s been a long time since I was last there. The prescription of the elixir I left on the table should have been found by others, and some people might have noticed what I have done. News travels fast. It won’t be long before I can boldly refine the Bone-Forging Pill to enhance the overall strength of those kids. Hey, I’ve asked Jiang Xiao to store many medicinal herbs for years, which should be enough to refine tens of thousands of Bone-Forging Pill to be used for sometime!” Zhou Bao thought to himself and again returned to his Immortal’s Cave. But this time he didn’t practice Dragon Flame Technique. He didn’t know what cultivation method should be practiced after he himself had given up the kindling of Dragon Chimera Fire and all Real Essences.

There were nine acupoints in his body, the Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints, which formed a giant Dantian. But now, all the Gang Qi had gone.

However, he had to do that.

Primordial Fierce Beast, the Demonic Ape Zhuyan had an extremely special Divine Sense and its demonic spirit had been devouring and assimilating the Real Essence of Demonic Fire in Zhou Bao. At first, it just engulfed the Real Essence bit by bit, so the Dragon Chimera Fire was able to resist it because of the kindling.

However, as the state Zhou Bao was in became more and more stable and the bloodline of the demonic ape in Zhou Bao became more and more intense, the kindling of Dragon Chimera in Zhou Bao’s Dantian struggled to survive. When the Demonic Fire was devoured and assimilated, it was mostly used for strengthening the bloodline in Zhou Bao’s body. The bloodline of the demonic ape in Zhou Bao had become stronger as the Demonic Fire melted. In the end, Zhou Bao was upset to find out that the Real Essence of Demonic Fire of Dragon Chimera and even the Nine Dragons Heavenly Kylin Gang he had spent much time on had been totally assimilated and engulfed.

That’s why he thought of studying the Dragon Flame Technique to see if there was a possibility to make up for it. Unexpectedly, he was almost caught in the spell because of the Dragon Flame Technique and he even drew upon his Outer-body Incarnation. Therefore, he had to eject the weaker Demonic Fire Seed. If he didn’t give it up, Zhou Bao believed that his kindling of the same quality of engulfing would be assimilated by the Demonic Qi of Zhuyan.

This was not due to the fact that the Demonic Fire of Dragon Chimera was inferior to the demonic spirit of Zhuyan. It was because Zhou Bao had assimilated the bloodline of Zhuyan, and the demonic spirit of Zhuyan was the dominant one in the battle. Though the Demonic Fire of Dragon Chimera was strong, it had no roots in Zhou Bao’s body, so it was suppressed by the demonic spirit of Zhuyan. As for Zhou Bao, he didn’t care about the Demonic Fire, but he was concerned about the precious kindling. The Demonic Fire made him what he was today. If the Demonic Fire of Dragon Chimera was devoured, it would be a huge loss for him. Therefore he had to expel the kindling to be melted into his Outer-body Incarnation.

And with this kindling, the Outer-body Incarnation of Zhou Bao had completed the most crucial stage. It became an intact incarnation of Dragon Chimera and finally brought in the Divine Tribulation. Everything had gone beyond Zhou Bao’s expectations, and all went well. At least, he had found his inner peace and became an Individual Immortal with the Real Body of Zhuyan, and he left no traces of the Primitive Dragon Chimera at all.

If it had not been for the massive amount of the golden energy he gained from the remains of the Innate Deity, he would have been surrounded by the Demonic Qi of Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan.

That golden Dharma power was indeed the inheritance of the Innate Deity from olden times. Although it was assimilated by the demonic spirit of Zhuyan, it also affected the demonic spirit and weakened the Demonic Qi of that demonic spirit, making the demonic spirit positive and peaceful. Most importantly, it strengthened the power of the demonic spirit and made it more effective and at the same time enhancing the body.

“Power, the great power. The Primordial Demonic Ape was called the Supreme Divine King Kong Ape. The name came from the King Kong in Buddhism and also evolved from the characteristics of this fierce beast. It was certainly something special. No, it contains infinite power!” Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Zhou Bao felt the demonic spirit of Primitive Dragon Chimera slowly infusing into the bloodline of his body. After a few seconds, the demonic spirit that he had just practiced was already dying out.

“No, if I go on like this, the demonic spirit I practice will not stay in my body. Then I will not be able to use either my secret skills or Divine Senses. I can only use my physical power to fight against others. Though I may not lose most of the time, it is inconvenient!”

With the demonic spirit in his body decreasing steadily, Zhou Bao looked a bit weird. “If this goes on, all I can do is to practice the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword in my External Elixir to battle against my enemies. What will become of me if I have to rely on the power of others?”
