External Incarnation was a kind of Divine Power. Almost all Great Dao experts had this kind of Divine Power. Moreover, they all had their own External Incarnation.
However, it was very troublesome to conceive an External Incarnation.
To be precise, it was not that it was troublesome to conceive an External Incarnation, but it was very troublesome to refine one.
It was even more troublesome than refining a Dharma treasure. Not only did it require years of nourishment, but it also required a lot of effort and even one's own cultivation base to refine it.
Refining a Dharma treasure required a lot of resources.
Conceiving an External Incarnation also required a lot of resources.
The difference was that the resources required to refine a Dharma treasure were mostly inanimate objects, while the resources required to conceive an External Incarnation were living objects. Otherwise, the refined External Incarnation would not be an External Incarnation, but a lifeless puppet.
Therefore, unless there was a special need, ordinary experts of the Great Dao would rarely nurture their own Outer-body Incarnations. To them, Outer-body Incarnations were not of much significance. The energy required to nurture an Outer-body Incarnation was not as practical as cultivating the Real Body. At the very least, it was better to refine another magic weapon than to refine an Outer-body Incarnation.
Even so, many Great Dao experts would still conceive an External Incarnation.
The purpose of their External Incarnation was not to hide the identity of their True Body, nor was it to increase their strength. It was to save their lives.
Yes.
To save their lives.
If they encountered danger and were no match for the enemy, they would lose their lives. If their True Body was destroyed, or if their True Body was too severely injured, they could use their soul to fuse with their External Incarnation.
Perhaps the External Incarnation was not as good as the True Body, but at least the soul would have a place to stay.
If they did not have an External Incarnation and their soul wandered in the Void, it would be too late to seize a Physical Body. After all, the existence of the soul was a person's origin, and it was very weak. It was very difficult to survive wandering in the Void.
Using an External Incarnation to save their lives was the choice of many Great Dao experts.
Of course.
Speaking of which, the External Incarnation's only purpose was to save their lives. However, to some Great Dao overlords and Great Dao emperors who had inherited the Mandate of Heaven, the External Incarnation's significance was too great.
Because each of them was a genius, had a powerful background, and had endless resources.
Most importantly, they were either full of Creation or full of Divine Sense and Demonic Will..
It was common knowledge.
The more one had, the more powerful one would be. Many of the creations were counterproductive. The more creations one had, the heavier the burden would be. Stagnating one's cultivation would be considered light. In serious cases, it could even suck one's cultivation dry. It was even possible that one would be devoured by the creations.
With such good fortune, the Divine Sense and Demonic Will were even more terrifying.
One had to know that the Divine Sense and Demonic Will were all formed by the overlords of the Great Dao. Although they lost their original selves and self-awareness after death, they still inherited their spiritual will.
Fusing with a strand of Demonic Will was an extremely dangerous thing in itself. If it failed, the best outcome would be a backlash. The worst outcome would be losing one's self and becoming a puppet of the Demonic Will. Even if the fusion was successful, one's own will would be affected by the Demonic Will. The consequences were also full of unknown dangers.
This was only the integration of one Divine Sense and Demonic Will. If two were integrated, the danger would only increase exponentially.
For those Great Dao overlords and Great Dao emperors, most of them had their own creations. To them, some creations were useful, some were useless, and some were a burden.
Since ancient times, no one had cultivated their own creations. Not even the Great Dao emperors who had inherited the Mandate of Heaven or the overlords of the Great Dao could do it.
The more powerful the creations, the heavier the burden, and the more effort it would take to nurture them.
They might be able to withstand one or two, three or four creations. They could barely withstand five or six creations. However, if there were more creations, no one could withstand it.
At this time, the External Incarnation was very important.
They could give extra creations to the External Incarnation, or directly use the extra creations to nurture an External Incarnation.
This way, they could reduce the burden on their true body and wouldn't waste the extra creations.
Many Great Dao Monarchs in the world had done the same thing. Some had even nurtured more than one avatar. Some had nurtured two, some had even nurtured three avatars, or even more.
For example, Western Heaven's Buddhist Thearch, Great Sun Emperor, Lord Black Mountain, Blood River Patriarch, and many other famous overlords of the Great Dao, they all had many avatars, and each avatar might have two or three extraordinary fortunes. Some of them even had divine senses and devil thoughts.
Not to mention the others.
Heavenly Dragon True Emperor's first External Incarnation was already very frightening.
It could turn into a black dragon or a four-faced Hell Guest.
The black dragon was a creation, but the four-faced Hell Guest was a Divine Sense and Demonic Intents.
What did this mean?
It meant that the Heavenly Dragon True Emperor's incarnation had a Divine Sense and Demonic Intents.
In everyone's eyes, this was an External Incarnation. Everyone had witnessed the strength of the Evil Darkness Dragon. It was extremely powerful, and was definitely a powerful creation. Moreover, there was also the Infernal Assassin with four skulls and a demonic consciousness.
However, the Heavenly Dragon True Emperor said that this was just an External Incarnation he casually created.
This was an arrogant statement.
Even the experts watching from afar felt that the Heavenly Dragon True Emperor's words were infuriating.
After all, there were plenty of experts who could only dream of obtaining the Evil Darkness Dragon. As for the four-faced skull Hell Assassin, who possessed a Divine Sense and Demonic Will, there was no way anyone wouldn't be envious of him.
In their eyes, Heavenly Dragon True Emperor was wasting a heavenly treasure. Using a dark dragon to create an avatar was one thing, but he also had an evil divine intent like the skulls from Hell.
What was this called?
Death by drought or drowning by drowning?
So many people begged for a Divine Sense and Demonic Intents but couldn't get one. Many Grand Dao experts didn't even have a Divine Sense or Demonic Intents in their true body. Yet, the Heavenly Dragon True Emperor was using one to create an External Incarnation.
How could this not make people jealous? How could it not make people envious and jealous?
They didn't expect him to say that he was only playing around with these avatars created from the dark dragon and the four-faced skull Hell Assassin.
If that was the case, what kind of terrifying fortune did this devilish and ghostly incarnation of his own possess?
His true body couldn't even use the four-faced skull-faced Hell Guest's divine sense and devil will. It was hard to imagine how many terrifying fortunes his true body had, and how many terrifying divine senses and devil wills he had.
Heavenly Dragon True Emperor and Martial Monarch were both present.
No one knew how many fortunes, Soul Consciousness, and Devil Will this incarnation of his had. The only thing they knew was that he could turn into a blazing sun that could purify the void, and he could even summon the Five-Star Sun.
Everyone knew that the Martial Monarch had the Radiant Bloodline. It wasn't hard for him to create an External Incarnation that could turn into a Blazing Sun.
However, the Five-Star Sun Glory was the innate creation of the Great Dao that protected the five directions of heaven and earth. Even the enraged statues of the Five Wisdom Kings were destroyed by it. It was so powerful that it was a mess. Now, it was actually used by him to create an external incarnation.
