Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill - Chapter 1216 - 78: Wang Sheng’s "Replica"?

Chapter 1216: Chapter 78: Wang Sheng’s “Replica”?

This incident caused a huge uproar immediately.

Although the defeated top Saint Emperor wasn’t a hot contender for enlightenment, he was still a strong figure with a chance to attain it.

Yet he was defeated by the mysterious figure within just a few moves.

“How is that possible, Hu Xiao Saint Emperor was still a top Saint Emperor, how could he be defeated so easily?”

“Could it be that a Supreme has sneaked in, but what use would a Supreme be here, wouldn’t a True Saint intervene?”

What they didn’t know was that after defeating a top Saint Emperor, the mysterious figure was intercepted by some cultivators.

And the one who intercepted the clone was naturally Wang Sheng’s avatar.

The clone looked at the person in front of him, not surprised at all: “As expected of my original body, you have to test things before you show up.”

Wang Sheng, manipulating his avatar, looked at the clone identical to himself, frowned, and said: “I am well aware of my situation. According to the operational logic of the Corrosive Fate Dao, the supposed future body of the Fate Dao is never a possibility.”

The clone created by the Corrosive Fate Dao is essentially a starry sky creature on the future line of destiny.

And because of the Lifeless Immortal Body and the specialization in the Inner Core Skill path, he would not have a so-called future self.

Therefore, the clone in front of him was highly questionable.

Originally, he thought it would take considerable effort to get the answer.

However, his estimation was clearly mistaken.

The clone directly said upon hearing: “What origin do I have, if not just a clone, a real clone, to be exact, your shadow.”

This sentence seemed very plain, but Wang Sheng heard the underlying meaning.

A real clone, meaning it was copied based on his template by the Corrosive Fate Dao, and not starry sky creatures’ future selves from the original destiny threads.

The two are fundamentally different.

However, Wang Sheng’s frown did not ease. While this answer had crossed his mind, there was one thing he couldn’t explain: the identical original essence on the clone.

If it were purely copied, the essence should have differed, not been identical.

“Where does your original essence come from?”

“I knew you’d ask, even though you’ve now freed yourself from destiny, it doesn’t mean it was always like this. You were weak once, and from the moment you embarked on the path of cultivation, you were marked by fate. If your potential was great, you’d be keenly observed. As for your original self, your cultivation speed was too swift, destiny paid a hefty price and copied a part of your former essence, and this is also my core.” The clone answered all questions without reservation.

Wang Sheng had not thought that the Corrosive Fate Dao would actually copy a part of his essence and use it at this time.

He glanced deeply at the clone.

He hadn’t held back from attacking at once, not out of perverse interest.

A battle can reveal many things to him.

“Copying the origin, it doesn’t seem to be very thorough. Though the use of the Dao is indeed powerful, you seem unable to wield any core skills…”

(Apologies, there are only two thousand words today, much like this month’s Mercury retrograde, first family members got sick after the new year, went to care for them, finally concluded reexaminations, then somehow caught a severe cold after a night’s sleep, weary and aching all over, could persist yesterday but not today, and am too embarrassed to ask for leave, so just wrote slightly over two thousand, apologies)
