#9094 - Eternal Three Bodies

Within the Five Elements Sect, Jiang Yun had only ever met Sect Master Water True Person.

But now, seeing these five people who looked exactly alike, he naturally understood that his guesses were correct.

The Five Elements Sect not only had a Sect Master for each element, but these five True Persons were not truly human or demon cultivators, but rather, they were Ding Spirits!

Sure enough, Water True Person pointed to his four companions and said, "My young friend is right, the five of us are the Ding Spirits of the Five Elements Ding!"

The other four clasped their fists at Jiang Yun, each stating their title.

Because the power of Eternal Calamity was similar to the power of time, trying to suppress it with a single type of power was almost impossible.

Therefore, the Nine Dings True Person ultimately considered introducing the power of the five elements, condensing it into a ding, and the ding also contained the five types of primordial fetal breaths corresponding to the five elements.

Regardless of whether the people of the Nine Dings were good or bad, or what their intentions were, Jiang Yun truly admired their actions and methods of suppressing the nine fiends.

Using the Lightning Ding to seal You E, using the Flower Ding to seize Kun Xuan, letting the Dream Ding enter the dream of the Empty Universe, and using the Five Elements Ding to suppress Eternal Calamity.

Although the words of the Five Elements Ding Spirits had now confirmed that Jiang Yun's guesses were true, Jiang Yun still didn't understand why Water True Person had always refused to reveal anything before.

"My young friend, please look!"

Water True Person waved his sleeve, and Jiang Yun saw that the flat ground where he and they were standing, along with the colorful sky, instantly began to shrink.

Under this shrinking of space, Jiang Yun's pupils slightly narrowed, understanding that the position where he was standing was actually the edge of the Five Elements Ding's mouth!

That abyss was the mouth of the Five Elements Ding.

The entire Five Elements Ding was circular, with three legs, and the body of the ding was covered with corresponding five-element runes, densely packed and constantly flowing.

However, on its three legs, the five-element runes were clearly incomplete.

Jiang Yun was no stranger to this situation, knowing that it was like the Lightning Ding, being invaded by the power of the great fiend Eternal Calamity.

Although he had seen the real Five Elements Ding, Jiang Yun still didn't understand what this had to do with him previously concealing their identities from him.

At this time, Fire True Person spoke, "My young friend, this way it is more intuitive!"

With Fire True Person's wave, a circular pattern appeared before Jiang Yun's eyes, and in the middle of the circle was a triangle!

On the circle, there were dense lines, as if the original complete circle had been cut into countless parts.

Jiang Yun's heart stirred, vaguely thinking of something.

Fire True Person continued, "This circle is equivalent to Eternal Calamity, and each line on it is the time scar that my young friend has seen before!"

"The people of the Nine Dings used the power of the five elements as a foundation to cut Eternal Calamity into 129,600 time scars!"

Hearing these words, Jiang Yun was shocked and suddenly understood.

A time scar was a mountain gate of the Five Elements Sect!

No wonder there were so many mountain gates of the Five Elements Sect, it turned out that they were used to suppress and cut Eternal Calamity.

Naturally, if Eternal Calamity wanted to regain its freedom, it needed to reopen all the time scars, so it would constantly attack and seize the mountain gates of the Five Elements Sect.

Wood True Person next to him continued, "My young friend, do you see that triangle?"

"That triangle is the three legs of the Five Elements Ding!"

"Do you know why the Five Elements Ding has three legs?"

Jiang Yun shook his head.

There were many styles of dings, with three legs, four legs, and five legs, and he could not possibly know how the master of the Nine Dings would design the shape of each ding when refining it.

Wood True Person suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Because Eternal Calamity has three!"

"What!" Jiang Yun's eyes widened suddenly, and he showed a surprised expression, saying, "Three?"

"Yes!"

Wood True Person nodded and said, "Of course, it is not very accurate to say that there are three, it should be said that it has three forms of existence, which we call the Three Temporal Bodies!"

"They are the past body, the present body, and the future body!"

"The strength of each body is equally powerful, so one Eternal Calamity is actually comparable to three great fiends!"

Jiang Yun's pupils condensed again, and after pondering for a moment, he finally nodded, understanding the meaning of Wood True Person's words!

Time has past, present, and future.

And the power of Eternal Calamity is similar to the power of time, so it has three forms of existence, just like a cultivator's clone.

However, Eternal Calamity's clones exist in the past, present, and future.

Therefore, the three legs of the Five Elements Ding suppress one form of Eternal Calamity each.

At this moment, Jiang Yun not only admired the master of the Nine Dings even more, but also realized that his understanding of the power of the nine fiends was not detailed enough.

Previously, Jiang Yun had seen the true form of Kun Xuan, the Nine Xuan Earth Mother, which was already beyond his understanding.

But now, the three temporal bodies of this Eternal Calamity deeply shocked him.

Who would have thought that a great fiend could have three temporal bodies.

Wood True Person sighed and said, "In the battle back then, the cultivators of the Eternal Calamity Domain had actually successfully killed Eternal Calamity."

"But at that time, they didn't know that they had only killed Eternal Calamity's present body."

"Just as they were celebrating their victory, Eternal Calamity's past body and future body appeared together..."

Speaking halfway, Wood True Person stopped and shook his head.

Jiang Yun didn't need him to continue.

Because he could imagine the despair of those cultivators of the old domain when they saw Eternal Calamity's future body and past body!

Wood True Person said, "In short, if you want to truly kill Eternal Calamity, you must kill all three of its temporal bodies, otherwise, it will never die!"

At this time, Water True Person said, "My young friend, the reason why I didn't trust you before and concealed our identities and the existence of the Five Elements Ding from you was also because of Eternal Calamity's three temporal bodies."

"Eternal Calamity doesn't know the specific location of the Five Elements Ding, nor does it know the true identities of the five of us."

"But the Eternal Calamity of the present body doesn't know, doesn't mean that the Eternal Calamity of the future body doesn't know either."

"Apart from here, the fewer secrets we expose in front of Eternal Calamity, the better."

These words sounded a bit awkward.

Even Jiang Yun couldn't imagine how Eternal Calamity's future body would know the secrets of the present.

However, he could finally understand Water True Person's concealment from him.

Seeing Jiang Yun nod, Water True Person continued, "Alright, let's get back to the topic."

"Eternal Calamity has three temporal bodies, and that Crimson Heavy seems to be more than one, which should be the similarity between the two great fiends that the master of the Nine Dings said."

"Perhaps, because of this similarity, these two great fiends can sense each other to some extent."

"Of course, these are all my guesses, and my young friend can use them as a reference."

Water True Person was also trying his best to explain to Jiang Yun why dealing with Eternal Calamity could affect the power of Crimson Heavy!

And his explanation reminded Jiang Yun that Xu Ba had told him that Crimson Heavy might be a dual soul in one body, or a single soul in two bodies.

Could it be that Eternal Calamity is actually another body or another soul of Crimson Heavy?

However, Jiang Yun didn't need to know the answer to the question anymore.

The Five Elements Ding Spirits' honesty, and understanding the special nature of Eternal Calamity, made him believe that the master of the Nine Dings had not deceived him.

Ji Kongfan must have really encountered some danger in the Crimson Heavy Domain.

Therefore, Jiang Yun clasped his fists at the five people in front of him and said, "Please take me to that time scar!"
