Capítulo 170: Chapter 169 Master Danyang

"Hahaha! So that's how it is, that's how it is indeed!"

Standing atop flesh and blood, Master Danyang, his mouth agape, laughed maniacally, and at that moment he finally understood.

He had thoroughly grasped what the senior of boundless longevity had told him outside the heavens about severing the three corpses; he had always thought that he had to transform Li Huowang into three corpses and then slay them, but he had misunderstood.

It turns out there was never any Li Huowang at all; Li Huowang was a part of his past self, his own Heart Demon, one of his three corpses.

It was the part of him tainted with mortal qi that had always been obstructing his path to becoming an Immortal, and now that he had fully become himself, this signified that this one corpse had been cut down.
