Chapter 921: Chapter 443: Dao, Virtue, Law, Principle (Part 2)

At the original spot, Xu Qing remains calm and composed.

From the moment the female Kui Ba, Cyan Dragon Divine Monarch, and the founding Emperor risked everything to hide his identity, Xu Qing has held absolute initiative.

These holy sages, who care deeply about the safety of the human world, will never stand by and watch the last spark of humanity extinguish.

Xu Qing sat steadily on the rostrum. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

As expected, in less than half an hour, the female Kui Ba, dressed in a bright red wedding gown with a bronze coffin floating behind her, reappeared at Zhuoshui Dojo.

Xu Qing glanced over the female Kui Ba and fell on the bronze coffin floating in the air, thinking, isn’t this coffin unnecessary for him to carry?

"I can only get you half a day’s time, by then, regardless of your success, I’ll take you back to Chi Shui to cultivate,"

The female Kui Ba said loftily, "At that time, I’ll also help you find treasures to breakthrough the physical limitations, before proving the Kui Ba Dao fruit, you must not leave Chi Shui!"

"..."

Xu Qing was silent for a moment.

What’s this celestial planning, how come simply speaking becomes captivity training?

He’s not a zombie cub, and besides, who ever heard of a zombie finding a corpse wife for themselves?

Xu Qing pretended not to hear the female Kui Ba’s guidance, clasped his fists, and said, "Thanks to the celestial’s assistance, I will surely repay this favor in the future."

The female Kui Ba didn’t care whether the youth in front of her repaid her or not; in her eyes, this young zombie, bolder than she was back then, has become the young one she wishes to guide and protect.

In him, the female Kui Ba saw a shadow of her former self...

Xu Qing did not know what the female Kui Ba was thinking; at this moment, he only wanted to quickly clear the evil aura of the Yin River, disrupting this impending calamity capable of destroying the human world.

"This coffin has been my ritual treasure for many years, it’s ineffective against the General, but I can teach you its control method, temporarily lending it to you for battles against other demons."

Xu Qing shook his head, "Thank you, celestial for your consideration, but I don’t need this bronze coffin; for one, I have some artifacts against enemies, and second, the celestial’s treasure is unfamiliar to me, it might be difficult to use in practice."

The female Kui Ba laughed, "You need not worry about those. Not only is my coffin an artifact for combating enemies, it is also a heavenly blessing of my resting place."

"Inside are thirty-six Moon-Eating Beads and a Tai Yin Gathering Evil Formation, after years, it has collected a significant amount of Moonlight Yin Qi. After learning its control method, you don’t need to be distracted, just use the Moonlight Yin Qi inside the coffin to supplement yourself when your magical power is drained and there’s no external Yin Qi available."

"The Moonlight Yin Qi inside is pure without the need for refinement, you can use it directly."

The female Kui Ba summoned the coffin before her, smiling, "My treasure cannot be used by others, even if someone wishes to borrow it, I won’t agree. Today, I made an exception, if you don’t want to use it, you may not have another chance in the future."

Xu Qing looked at the bronze coffin before him; no matter how he saw it, it resembled the celestial’s private chamber.

The female Kui Ba was generous, after teaching Xu Qing the control method, she reminded, "I know you have external methods to deal with the Yin River’s gatekeepers, but external means are external means, you can rely on it once, but ultimately cannot rely on it always."

"Back then, no one could restrain the General because most gods relied on external objects."

Xu Qing pondered for a moment, clasped his hands towards the female Kui Ba.

"I am taught."

The female Kui Ba’s words were not without reason, the Yin River’s gatekeepers originate from the Netherworld’s law corpse, constrained by the three corpse body limitation, Xu Qing relies on the Sutra of Salvation for transcending corpses, naturally carrying a predator’s overlook.

Even regarding the General whose Dao exceeds his own, he dared to have hunting thoughts.

But such a mindset is inherently flawed, having no fear of the Yin River’s gatekeepers, should he one day prove the Kui Ba Dao fruit, perhaps he can wrestle with the Netherworld’s law corpse, yet should the calamity end, with the Yin River’s gatekeepers and Nine Netherworld’s law corpse defeated, then what can he depend on?

He can transcend corpses, but certainly cannot transcend the Upper Realm Gods and Buddhas by trick.

Being mindful in times of peace, the female Kui Ba’s unintentional words served as a warning to Xu Qing, excessive reliance on external objects is undoubtedly not feasible!

He must focus on self-cultivation, no matter the method he must refine the three types of Kui Ba to the extreme, along with the cultivation of the living sutras in the Blood Lake Realm, to be developed completely.

Only by cultivating both internally and externally, having Dao, Virtue, Skills, and Principles well-rounded, is the correct path!

Dao for Dao fruit, Virtue is background foundation, Skills are divine techniques and artifacts, Principles are the confidence brought by a strong physical body.

Xu Qing thoroughly understood the female Kui Ba’s guidance, became more certain of his future path.

"If you can’t defeat the Yin River’s gatekeepers, you can enter the bronze coffin, it will lead you to me, it also can heal your injuries."

Xu Qing understood what injuries the female Kui Ba referred to.

As a Flying Corpse, he has passed the Undying Bone stage, and when zombies are at the Undying Bone stage, they have nearly achieved immortality.

As long as one piece of Undying Bone survives, a sliver of true spirit is retained, the zombie’s main body can recover over time, relying on surviving Undying Bone to restore the flesh.

Evidently, the injuries the female Kui Ba spoke of must be those fragmented ones.

Xu Qing thanked the celestial again for her care.

The female Kui Ba revealed a comforting smile, that smile Xu Qing found strangely familiar.

When he often cared for his household cat, he would show such a comforting smile with a touch of subtle indulgence.

Zombie Xu felt completely uneasy, always being the one inside out of the three teachings caring for others, why today is he being cared for by others?

Here, upon finalizing his plan, Xu Qing took out the Rampage Flag and handed it to the female Kui Ba, saying, "This is a Rampage Flag, containing no less than a hundred thousand Fierce Generals inside..."

Seeing the female Kui Ba frown, Xu Qing explained, "The Fierce Generals inside are formed by the Yin Sha corpse qi, they can be driven by reciting the ’Cang Soldier Spell’."

"The celestial need not worry about the origin of these Fierce Generals, most were refined at the dojos while I traveled through the Yin River, subduing various state gatekeepers."

"Just the dojo of the Middle State Celestial Lord General holds no fewer than a hundred thousand corpses, in Yaozhou with Witch Qi’s subordinate ghost soldiers and Rampant Soldiers numbering no less than a million..."

"The Yin Sha corpse qi and various grievances that are difficult to eliminate, are the origin of these Fierce Generals now."

Xu Qing sighed lightly, "These Fierce Generals suffered at the hands of Yin River’s demons when alive, most grievances thus sprouted, you can freely use them against demons like the General, which may be the destination they desire."

The female Kui Ba finally understood where Xu Qing’s talk of a hundred thousand army generals came from, it turned out all the fleece came from the sheep itself!

After settling all matters, Xu Qing transformed into a nondescript Fierce General appearance.

The female Kui Ba immediately understood, she promptly summoned the Rampage Flag, chanting ’Cang Soldier Spell’:

"First Heaven wounds, head turns good.

Celestial Master commands, quick capture calamity.

Traversing Nine Earths, kill ghosts and capture wounds..."

With the curse words, the Rampage Flag swelled with the wind, meanwhile, the ground around the female Kui Ba churned, one-by-one cow-hoofed demon heads, skeletal bodies, Fierce Generals as large as shed umbrellas crawled from graves and stele forests.

In just moments, ten thousand Fierce Generals appeared outside the General’s dojo!

The female Kui Ba’s goal was to lure the tiger from the mountain, with ten thousand Fierce Generals it’s more than enough, only when Xu Qing genuinely confronts the General can more be utilized.

Eliminating the four chief gatekeepers is extremely difficult, the female Kui Ba admits calling upon a hundred thousand Fierce Generals is unlikely to happen in short term.

At the dojo’s edge, Xu Qing completely integrated into the Fierce General formation.

The copper coffin loaned by the celestial can restore magical power, the golden gourd gifted by the goddess that produces golden dew can stabilize foundation, Xu Qing possesses tri-transformation magical power, holding two pieces of sustaining treasures, courage grows immensely!

While the female Kui Ba pondered protection plans, Xu Qing had already moved towards fully investing his strength, to completely clear the Yin River.
