Dissection, usurpation, reincarnation, the endless cycle of rebirth—such intangible and elusive concepts. Especially for Li Fan, a person from another world, they were nearly impossible to understand. Of course, he had heard of the basic concepts in entertainment works from his previous life, but in this world of immortals and martial heroes, the specifics and differences between these terms were not at all clear or detailed.
Fortunately, the Xuantian Sword Intent, akin to an encyclopedia of cultivation, had provided a rough overview.
In short, in the Taiji Realm, there existed a set of practices that straddles between the righteous and the wicked, commonly known as the Art of Corpse Dissection or, more euphemistically, the Art of Robbing Immortality. Essentially, when a cultivator's path fails to advance in their current life, they might choose to dissect and usurp another's body, reincarnating and continuing through this path of the left-hand (Zuodao).
