In this way, if there were no special encounters, the power of Outer-body Incarnation would no longer be able to develop. It would only serve as a backup plan to escape from the Golden Book of Fate. When the body and soul were about to perish, Outer-body Incarnation helped to retain a bit of Genuine Spirit and prevented it from being controlled. It was still unsure about how much combat capability it had.
Later on, people gradually discovered that this could be developed further using some special techniques, so as to cultivate some power in incarnation and turn it into a good source of self-help. However, it would be extremely hard to do that.
What kind of Dharma Laksana True Body you practiced depended largely on your cultivation method.
For example, Zhou Bao was practicing Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. By right the Dharma Laksana that he was cultivating should be a Fire Dragon, or at least, one of the Nine Forms of Real Dragon. But he possessed the remains of Innate Deity and at the same time found the Primordial Fierce Beast, Demonic Ape Zhuyan, so he was able to get the Real Body of Zhuyan. If he hadn't found the Demonic Ape Zhuyan, the other thing he could cultivate would be the Real Body of Dragon Chimera. It was due to this that he had the Real Body of Zhuyan and his Second Primordial Spirit could be the Real Body of Primitive Dragon Chimera. He had been extremely lucky to receive such favorable opportunities. Other people would have been lucky if they could successfully practice the Dharma Laksana True Body of their bodies. How often do they get the chance to practice their Second Primordial Spirit as well?
Everyone knew that the Second Primordial Spirit and Outer-body Incarnation were incredible Divine Senses and had magical properties. But it was hard to practice them to perfection. For all the hard practice they put in, all they achieved was just an incarnation less powerful than the people themselves. Therefore those incarnations could only be used as a means to escape from catastrophes.
No one could be as lucky as Zhou Bao to have the incarnation of the Primordial Fierce Beast in such a short time.
It was because the incarnation of Zhou Bao's Second Primordial Spirit was too powerful that Zhou Bao was able to sense that something was not quite right.
It seemed that this incarnation of Second Primordial Spirit was not working in harmony with him.
In other words, his Second Primordial Spirit had been affected by the Primitive Dragon Chimera itself, and it became extremely brutal and cold-blooded. That brutal and cold-blooded spirit had even taken over his spirit, suddenly turning him likewise into a brutal and cold-blooded being. The killing intent surged from his body.
”Oh, no! I almost lost a grip on my spirit!”
Just when the fierce power in Zhou Bao was about to explode and turned him into a mass murderer, suddenly a stream of gentle power flew out between his eyebrows and calmed down his murderous intent.
”Ah!”
Zhou Bao took a deep breath and expired again. With this breath, the brutal and cold-blooded intent inside him was completely dissolved.
He suddenly raised his head and looked right into the cold eyes of the incarnation of Dragon Chimera. The eyes of incarnation of Dragon Chimera flashed and a sparkle of light flashed through those dark golden eyes. Feeling that something was not quite right, Zhou Bao did not hesitate and looked up. A sanguine ball erupted from his hand and shot right between the eyebrows of his second incarnation.
That red ball was one of the three Fiery Eyes which he had taken from Yu Taicang. When the Fiery Eyes was injected into his incarnation, the second incarnation spurted Demonic Fire and pushed it into the Fiery Eyes. All of a sudden, the Fiery Eyes flashed and started to take in and send out the essence of the world. In a moment, the Fiery Eyes had been cultivated into an External Elixir.
”Excellent, excellent, excellent!” Zhou Bao couldn't help repeating himself. Happiness was written all over his face.
Back in the old days, he had spent considerable time in turning the Fiery Eyes into an External Elixir. But now, since the incarnation of his Dragon Chimera had passed the Thunder Tribulation and possessed the power of a Genuine Immortal, an External Elixir could be cultivated without using any excessive power and could be done in a blink of an eye.
Once the Fiery Eyes was practiced into an External Elixir by Demonic Fire, it completely disappeared into the incarnation between its eyebrows leaving no trace behind. That incarnation was transformed into a black flame and smoke which became a black fire merging into the Fiery Eyes between Zhou Bao's eyebrows.
