Upon hearing the information revealed by the foreign Divine Spirit, Yun Feng's steps suddenly halted in mid-air.
Both Yamata no Orochi and the Nine-Tailed Fox had hidden External Avatars within Shenzhou Capital. The reason an External Avatar was considered a profound and supreme divine ability lay in its independence. Even if the main body were to perish, the avatar would not die; instead, it would continue to exist in the world as an individual entity. However, due to the massive loss of the original divine sense, it would be extremely difficult for the avatar to ever reach the height once attained by the original body.
Yet, "difficult" did not mean impossible. Yun Feng knew at least three or four methods that would allow his own avatar to continue breaking through realms and even surpass his main body after the latter's death. As long as one could find a way to make up for the lost origin of divine sense, the avatar could even practice the art of the External Avatar itself, becoming entirely indistinguishable from an independent individual.
