196: Chapter 182: Unexpected Changes 196: Chapter 182: Unexpected Changes Di Jun nodded upon hearing this, fully agreeing with the perspective of his own corpse.
The Heavenly Court in the previous life was a place enmeshed in karma and destiny; had it not been for the power struggle between the Demon Clan and the Witch Clan, even the Saints would not have easily taken action against Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi.
Regrettably, the entanglement between the witches and demons was too severe; otherwise, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi would not have perished.
Now that the karma and destiny of the Heavenly Mandate had shifted onto this very corpse of his, Di Jun suddenly felt a sense of relief.
In this way, he could not only govern the Heavenly Realm but could also avoid the karmic entanglement of the Heavenly Realm.
When it came to that point, it was simply a matter of offering this slain part of himself as a sacrifice.
At this moment, Di Jun’s corpse spoke again: “I can feel the various Laws of the Heavenly Realm endowing me, entwining my Origin.”
“It seems I have become the spokesperson for the Heavenly Realm.”
Hearing this term, Di Jun couldn’t help but think of Hong Jun, the Ancestor.
If he remembered correctly, after Hong Jun merged with the Tao, he always appeared as the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao.
Could it be that after his corpse ascended to the Law Throne, it became akin to merging with the Heavenly Realm?
Di Jun speculated continuously.
But Hong Jun merged with the Tao because there was a deficiency in the Heavenly Dao; could it be that the Heavenly Realm also has a deficiency?
At this moment, the corpse, sensing various changes, couldn’t help but frown and said, “Although the various destinies and karma of the Heavenly Realm weigh upon me, why do I feel a strange disconnection from the Heavenly Realm?”
Di Jun was also feeling very perplexed.
Since he’s become the spokesperson of the Heavenly Realm, why would there still be a disconnection?
Just as Di Jun was deeply puzzled, the countenance of the corpse suddenly changed and it spoke urgently: “This is not good.
The destiny, karma, and various Laws of the Heavenly Realm are spreading incessantly.”
“It seems to be searching for the original body, you!”
Hearing this, Di Jun did not dare to neglect it; his consciousness immediately transferred to the part of himself he had severed.
At this moment, all the feelings of the corpse rushed to the forefront of his mind.
The feeling of immense strength.
The authority of a spokesperson.
The binding sensation of the heavens’ karma and destiny.
And that indescribable disconnection.
Di Jun instantly understood the situation of the corpse and also perceived all aspects of the Heavenly Realm spreading incessantly along all the connections of the corpse.
The origin, River Map and Luo Book.
The only things that had a connection with this corpse were these two items, and Di Jun already felt the various elements of the Heavenly Realm seeking continuously along this connection.
Subconsciously, Di Jun’s consciousness gathered all the power of this corpse, preventing this spread.
He even thought of severing the link between this corpse and his original body.
However, Di Jun only pondered the idea and did not execute it.
If he completely severed the link between him and this corpse, then the current corpse would become an independent entity and no longer a part of Di Jun.
Moreover, this corpse has now taken on the karma and destiny of the Heavenly Realm, and it is lodged within the Innate Undying Spiritual Light of the River Map and Luo Book.
Di Jun was even less inclined to let it become independent.
Therefore, Di Jun merely used the power of this corpse to control this seeking and spreading.
Di Jun’s actions were effective, and the spread of all things of the Heavenly Realm slowed down.
However, this ultimately only provided temporary relief and did not fundamentally resolve the issue.
Under these circumstances, Di Jun’s consciousness decided to stay within the body of the corpse, preventing the spread for as long as possible.
Even if it really did spread to his own original body, he would at least gain a deeper understanding of the Heavenly Realm.
Thus, Di Jun’s consciousness within the body of the corpse began a certain confrontation with the Heavenly Realm.
Di Jun’s corpse and his original body sat opposite each other, with his consciousness divided into two: one confronting the Heavenly Realm and the other constantly analyzing the gains from the confrontation.
Having only recently emerged from seclusion, Di Jun once again fell into closed-door cultivation.
Time flowed gently by, and after an indeterminate period, Di Jun’s original body opened its eyes.
He felt a fierce surge of energy coming from the Primordial Land, which is what stirred him from his analysis.
His eyes shimmered with gold as he looked past the Heavenly Realm, through the Primordial Starry Sky, towards the source of the energy fluctuations.
Penglai Immortal Island?
Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and Twelve Devastating Gods Formation.
East King, are you being confronted by the Twelve Ancestor Witches again?
Di Jun thought to himself.
His gaze moved and he noticed many Great Divine Ability Users hidden in the darkness, quietly observing the developments.
The Three Pure Ones, Daoist Hong Yun, Daoist Ming He, Zhēn Yuánzi, and other Quasi-Saints.
The seven Quasi-Saints of the Demon Clan stood together, watching the battle unfold.
Fu Xi, Demon Master Kunpeng, and Bai Ze were exchanging thoughts, while Donghuang Taiyi, holding the Donghuang Bell, focused intently on the battlefield, eager to join.
Nuwa conversed with Xi He and Chang Xi.
As Di Jun’s gaze swept over everyone, they all felt a sensation of being scrutinized, but ultimately they found nothing.
Only then did Di Jun’s attention return to the battlefield.
Within the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, East King remained the one directing the formation, gathering everyone’s power and focusing it on the three Primordial Golden Immortals.
Di Jun saw at a glance that they possessed enormous power, but were unable to wield it freely.
Facing an opponent like the Witch Clan who clashed with sheer might, being able to match them in strength was not a problem.
If they were to face him as an opponent…
