Chapter 389: A Long-Lost Figure
In the letter he left behind, Wu Shang explained that all his attempts were made after his transformation into a flying yaksha. Despite exhausting every possible means, he had been unable to break free from the Heavenly Corpse Talisman and was ultimately forced onto the path of corpse refinement.
If someone who did not fear the Heavenly Corpse Talisman’s imprisonment of their primordial spirit were to break free from it after achieving the transformation into a flying yaksha, severing their connection to the Dao of corpse...
What would happen to their corpse core?
Would their cultivation... regress?
Qin Sang pondered for a long moment before shaking his head.
...
Controlling the living corpse, Qin Sang bowed slightly to Wu Shang.
Wu Shang was the second person Qin Sang had encountered, after Wandering Man, whose unwavering dedication to the Dao was beyond question—relentless and unyielding, never admitting defeat.
In the end, he had transformed into a flying yaksha, his consciousness lost, his primordial spirit eternally imprisoned within a refined corpse, condemned to wander the deathly silent ice cavern alone—willingly sacrificing everything for his pursuit.
"One must embrace madness to truly live."
Such a person was indeed worthy of being called a seeker of the Dao.
