The Fifty-First Chapter: Kunpeng Slays the Evil Corpse

  Kunpeng began to close the door and practice after Wu Dao and Jing Wei left. He prepared to cut off the evil corpse, originally he could have cut off the evil corpse during the witch demon war, but he didn't rush to cut off the evil corpse in order to smoothly prove his way later. Instead, he consolidated his own realm and made sure there was no problem before deciding to cut off the evil corpse.

  Kunpeng had the experience of beheading a benevolent corpse, so this evil corpse didn't take too much effort to behead smoothly. This evil corpse was transformed from the innate treasure born by the Taiyin star, so it was called 'Taiyin'. Its magical power could rival that of a saint, and no one below a saint could defeat it.

  As soon as the evil corpse appeared, Kun Peng immediately felt an unspoken connection between himself and the Heavenly Dao. This made him extremely happy, and he couldn't help but think to himself: "It seems I was right in my guess, the correct method for beheading the three corpses and achieving enlightenment is to use the Pre-Heavenly Spiritual Treasure to host the three corpses. Once the three corpses are beheaded, the spiritual treasure disappears, transforming into the three corpses. This way, the three corpses can merge and separate at will, without any flaws."

  The evil corpse was beheaded, and Kunpeng would have to equip it with a spiritual treasure. The evil corpse was in charge of killing, as long as there was one attacking spiritual treasure, no defensive spiritual treasure was needed. Moreover, this evil corpse of Kunpeng was transformed from the pre-heavenly supreme treasure, its physical strength was unmatched even by the ancestors, only the 'Pangu Fan' - a pre-heavenly supreme treasure could break through its physical defense.

  Kunpeng once took the pre-heavenly spiritual treasure 'Anbi Sword' from Minghe's hands. After obtaining this sword, Kunpeng felt that although the 'Anbi Sword' was full of murderous intent, its body was born from the Blood Sea, so the sword light itself was not pure. Therefore, Kunpeng sank it into the North Ming Sea's sea eye to cleanse the impurities in the sword with the boundless cold air, enhancing the quality of the treasure sword. After succeeding, the sword light emerged, and the ice sealed millions of miles away. The original polluted air in the sword was completely cleansed, replaced by unparalleled pre-heavenly cold air. The 'Anbi Sword' became a purely yin and cold pre-heavenly spiritual treasure. The killing intent in the sword was also fully contained within the sword body, merged with the pre-heavenly cold air as one entity. Such a killing instrument paired with evil corpses complemented each other perfectly.

  After beheading the evil corpse, Kunpeng's cultivation increased greatly. He was now second only to the Saint, and even if he faced the Saint, he had the power to fight one battle. Although he couldn't win, self-preservation was no problem.

  After the Kunpeng's cultivation increased greatly, he felt that the good corpse was slightly insufficient compared to the evil corpse. The good corpse was created by Kunpeng using the pre-heavenly spiritual treasure 'Twelve Ranks of Black Lotus' in conjunction with the Great Virtue Slash. To make up for the insufficiency of the good corpse, it was necessary to refine the Great Virtue, and fortunately, Kunpeng still had a lot of virtue in his hands, enough for the good corpse to use.

  Kunpeng arranged for Wudao and Jingwei to go help Shen Nong, the Human Emperor, promote the use of currency and measurement. He understood that this move would attract the attention of saints. In order to take action in the impending great disaster, he had to change his identity. The emergence of Evil Corpse Taishan solved this problem. Kunpeng let Evil Corpse Taishan enter the Hongyuan, secretly protecting the safety of Wudao and Jingwei, while searching for Hou Yi's reincarnation. His main body continued to close up in the North Ming Sea, thinking about how to cut off his ego. This way, not only would it not affect Kunpeng himself, but also avoid the attention of the saints.

  Taiyin entered the vast wilderness and found that humans had already begun to promote currency, and the law of measurement had also been recognized by humans. The name of Shengshi Kunpeng was once again widely spread among humans, and Wudao and Jingwei were also recognized by humans. The virtues of Ren Huang Shen Nong surpassed those of Fuxi at this time.

  After the human tribe eliminated internal threats, it once again burst forth with vigorous vitality. The original conflicts between tribes also subsided a lot, and everyone began to accept transactions based on currency.

  Taiyin saw that Wudao and Jingwei were not in any danger, so she began to search for Hou Yi's reincarnation among the various tribes of humanity. With effort, Taiyin finally found Hou Yi's reincarnation in a remote small tribe, but he had not yet recovered his memories from his past life. His current name was Wu Gang, and he was just a relatively strong person. Taiyin did not have to exert much effort to bring Hou Yi's reincarnation back to the North Sea.

  Kunpeng sighed when he saw Hou Yi's reincarnation, Wu Gang: "Heavenly will is hard to predict, I didn't expect Hou Yi still couldn't escape the heavenly way's calculation, it seems that Wu Gang chopping wood legend will continue."

  Wu Gang did not recover his past life memories and had no idea what Kun Peng meant by this sentence, he just curiously looked at Kun Peng, silently.

  "Kun Peng said, 'Wu Gang, you have not yet recovered your memories from your past life, so you do not understand what I am saying. Now, I will lend you a helping hand and let you regain your memories from your past life.'"

  Kunpeng said, as soon as his voice fell, he stretched out his right hand and pointed at Wu Gang's forehead. Wu Gang suddenly felt dizzy and his consciousness became blurred. In an instant, they both fainted to the ground.

  After a while, Wu Gang came to his senses, but by this time he had regained the memories of his past life. He saw Kunpeng looking at him and hurriedly went forward to pay his respects, saying: "Disciple Hou Yi has seen the teacher, thank you for your help, disciple has just passed through a great calamity, I wonder if Chang'e is well?"

  Kunpeng smiled and said, "Alright, you're lucky to have passed the great calamity. Chang'e is fine, and you'll see her on Taiyin Star soon. It's been many years since you last met, so I'm sure you have a lot to talk about. As for me, let's keep it brief and just mention a few things you need to pay attention to in the future, lest you become careless and stir up trouble."

  Hou Yi hastily said: "Teacher, please speak, your disciple will listen with reverence."

  "Later, you have already settled the karma with the two tribes of Wu and Yao in your previous life. You were able to successfully reincarnate, largely due to the great merit you accumulated from shooting down the sun. Now that the two tribes have declined, some of the Wu tribe has entered the underworld to become yin spirits, while others have settled in Beijuzhou. If you want to see old friends in the future, go to Beijuzhou, but be careful not to get entangled in karma again. Although the great calamity has passed, smaller ones continue to arise. The Honghuang appears calm for now, but it will soon stir up waves again. Don't let a momentary impulse lead you into calamity. After meeting Chang'e on the Taiyin star, it's best to appear in front of others with your current identity, lest you draw unnecessary attention and trouble to yourself."

  Hou Yi's reincarnated body had lived in the mortal world for over a decade, and hadn't discovered any anomalies in the Hong Huang. So he asked, "Master, now that the Hong Huang is calm and peaceful, it seems like there won't be any calamities occurring?"

  "Later, you see that it's just the surface. In fact, the current Honghuang is only a calm before the great disaster. Soon, there will be a great disaster, and although it may seem small, it will affect all three tribes: humans, demons, and witches. Even those under the Saint's gate will be drawn in. You have recovered your memories, but your cultivation is far inferior to what it was in your past life. If you're not careful, you'll lose your life. Therefore, I hope you can be cautious and not interfere with this disaster."

  Hou Yi, after all, was once the great shaman of the Wu tribe. When he heard Kun Peng's words, he couldn't help but worry about the Wu tribe. The demon tribe was still manageable, at least with the saintly Nüwa watching over them, there wouldn't be too much loss. But the Wu tribe was far worse off, all twelve ancestral shamans had fallen, leaving only a few great shamans to hold up the situation, and it would be difficult to resist when disaster struck.

  He hastily asked: "Teacher, will this great calamity bring a devastating disaster to the Wu tribe?"

  Kun Peng said: "The master has said that the scale of this disaster is not too large, so it will not bring a catastrophic disaster to the Wu tribe. Of course, some damage to the yuanqi is inevitable."

  "Hou Yi asked, 'Teacher, since the great war with the witch tribe, the witch tribe has been severely damaged. If there are any more losses, I'm afraid it won't be long before they become extinct. Is there a way for the witch tribe to avoid this disaster?'"

  Kun Peng sighed: "Hou Yi, you have also experienced a great calamity of heaven and earth. You should understand that the will of heaven cannot be violated. The fate of the Wu tribe is destined to go through this disaster, which cannot be stopped by human power."

  Hou Yi still asked somewhat unwillingly: "Teacher, don't you have any other way?"

  "Actually, it's not like there's no way at all."

  Hou Yi hastily asked: "Teacher, is there a way for the You tribe to avoid this disaster?"

  Kun Peng said, "Hou Yi, the great trend of heaven is unchangeable. It's impossible for the Wu tribe to completely avoid this disaster. What we can do is only change some small trends and let the Wu tribe suffer a little less loss. As long as this calamity is not too excessive, the saint will not take action. Everything needs the three tribes of human, demon, and witch to rely on their own strength to survive. I have discussed this matter with Zu Wu Hou Tu before, and if necessary, I will lend a hand to help the Wu tribe. So no matter what, you must not take action, lest you create unnecessary trouble and make it difficult for me."

  Hou Yi heard that Kun Peng might intervene, and his heart couldn't help but relax. If the saint didn't take action, it meant that the saint was at the highest point, and with Kun Peng in the Wu tribe, there wouldn't be too much loss.

  Actually, Kunpeng wants to take risks for two reasons. On the one hand, he wants to get the "Gan Qi Axe" from Xingtian's hands. On the other hand, he wants to make friends with the Wu tribe. Although the Wu tribe has already declined, a thin camel is bigger than a horse, and the Wu tribe still has some family assets. Kunpeng wants to prove his way, so he must enter the catastrophe. The great catastrophe of heaven and earth is not small, and it will be easy to turn into flying ash without strong cultivation and hard power. He himself had already turned against the demon tribe in the last great catastrophe of heaven and earth, so he could only find the Wu tribe as a helper. Although Zu Wu Hou Tu can't leave the ground for half a step, she controls the six paths of reincarnation. Making friends with her will also be helpful for future actions.
