Chapter 201 - 199: The External Incarnation is Completed
The mount’s swift speed combined with the surging power of the attack endowed Huang Yi’s hammer blow with unparalleled bravery. It landed fiercely on the skeleton knight, sending it flying through the air to crash heavily onto the ground, tumbling far away.
Huang Yi urged his headless horse in pursuit and attacked the fallen skeleton knight from an elevated position, swiftly putting it to death.
"Bang!" The body of the skeleton knight shattered, dropping a belt.
Huang Yi glanced at the belt, which appeared unremarkable. He didn’t even have the desire to dismount and pick it up, ready to spur his horse and move on.
However, just then, he thought he saw something out of the corner of his eye and turned back for a closer look.
Beneath the belt lay a sheepskin scroll, quietly pressed by the sands. A desolate wind blew by, causing the corners of the scroll to flutter incessantly. It seemed as though it had traveled through the vast and distant river of history, handled by countless people, to ultimately lie before Huang Yi at this very moment.
Huang Yi eyed the sheepskin scroll for a while and, finally, driven by curiosity, dismounted. He walked over, bent down, and picked it up.
The sheepskin scroll was wrinkled, as if it had been touched countless times. It featured a map with various terrains marked, and a red line that led to a valley, where a dragon head was depicted.
"Hmm? Could this be the treasure of the Golden Holy Dragon?" Huang Yi immediately conjectured.
When he first visited Bai Long Lake, he had asked the White Dragon King about the location of Dragon City. At that time, the White Dragon King had told him the origin story of the city.
The region where Dragon City was located was once the lair of a powerful Golden Holy Dragon. After the dragon died, countless treasures within the lair attracted adventurers from across the continent. Swarms of people headed there, seeking the treasure. But as years passed, no one ever found it. Eventually, a large gathering of adventurers formed a city, which came to be known as Dragon City.
Huang Yi wasn’t particularly interested in this ephemeral legend about the treasure. His mind was fully focused on Dragon City, and he had no time for treasure hunting. Besides, this sheepskin scroll was probably not unique; after all, it was just a treasure map dropped by an elite monster. Others might have had the same map and had searched that place too. Any treasure would have likely been found and taken long ago.
However, the dragon head marked on the map was only a few days’ journey from his current location. It wouldn’t take too long to check it out.
After pondering for a while, Huang Yi made a decision that served both purposes—he decided to send his external incarnation to that location!
A few more days, and his external incarnation would be ready!
...
For the following week, Huang Yi spent most of his time level grinding and occasionally took time to enter Heroes’ Prison to inspect the progress on the ape’s corpse refinement.
With his rocket-like leveling speed, his level had soared to 55, but the 8th Stage War Soul continued to elude him, rendering his Experience Points useless except for leveling. Now, however, his leveling rate had slowed significantly. After all, his level had risen by 5, while the skeletons remained at their original level, resulting in a noticeable level suppression and a significant reduction in Experience Points.
That night, Huang Yi once again visited the morgue in Heroes’ Prison.
By then, the body of the ape had completely changed, resized to that of a normal human. The Third Eye also gained a hint of luster, no longer as dim as before.
Huang Yi attempted to control the body, and immediately, the ape stood up from the ground, looked around, but its movements were still somewhat clumsy and not entirely under his command.
Now that the corpse refining process was complete, the next step was to create an external incarnation. Once the external incarnation was ready, Huang Yi would be able to manipulate it freely.
An external incarnation shares all the owner’s skills, equipment, talents, and various abilities, including the storage ring. Huang Yi could even continue leveling here while sending the incarnation to deal with equipment from the ring in the city, as handy as if he were there in person.
Next, utilizing the Corpse Refining Technique, Huang Yi extracted the heart from the ape and detached its legs. He then took out the Heart of the Sand Thief King and Lucifer’s legs from the storage ring and attached them to the ape’s body. The blood from Lucifer had also been absorbed by the heart of the Sand Thief King and now entered the ape’s body.
The body tissues of several powerful beings were thus combined into one corpse.
"Transform into White Dragon!" At that moment, Huang Yi immediately turned into his White Dragon Form. He extended his claw, tore his skin, and some blood mixed with the White Dragon Clan’s talents dripped onto the ape’s body.
The ape absorbed the blood like a sponge soaking it into its body.
Subsequently, Huang Yi utilized the White Dragon Form’s Racial Skill—External Incarnation!
A burst of red light suddenly flew out from within him and merged into the corpse of the ape, beginning the fusion with the ape’s body. The Corpse Refining Technique and the External Incarnation Refining Art were a perfect combination; the Corpse Refining Technique was responsible for refining the whole corpse, while the External Incarnation Refining Art took care of replacing parts, creating a complementary effect.
About ten minutes later, the various parts of the ape’s body finally began to fuse together. Lucifer’s legs had completely grown onto the ape’s body without any abnormalities, and the Heart of the Sand Thief King had also perfectly fused with the ape’s body, becoming the core of the corpse. The blood from Lucifer’s heart flowed through the ape’s vessels, reaching every corner of the body, and began to circulate.
A creature unparalleled in history was slowly taking shape.
"The incarnation has taken form!" Huang Yi finally embarked on the last step, thoroughly transforming this corpse into his own incarnation!
That ape’s body suddenly underwent earth-shattering changes; its torso began to take on a dragon-like shape, wings sprouted from its back, the fur receded, replaced by white Dragon Scales, and sharp claws grew out of its hooves...
The scene before him was as if God was creating anew, bringing forth a creature from nothing!
Soon, the ape had transformed into the White Dragon form that Huang Yi currently possessed, identical in appearance, whether it be the size, the length of the wings, or even the shape of each Scale—there were no differences at all!
"Thump, thump, thump!" The next moment, Huang Yi heard a heart pumping vigorously; the Heart of the Sand Thief King within the incarnation functioned like a powerful engine, driving the body. At the same time, the blood of Lucifer was propelled into every area of the body, its flow speed increasing ever more, and the presence of life growing increasingly vivid.
Finally, the incarnation’s eyes snapped open with vigor!
In that instant, a Divine Light burst forth from its eyes, shining in the dark Morgue like a bolt of Lightning piercing the night sky!
Straightaway, the incarnation stood up, looking exactly like Huang Yi.
"It’s finally complete!" At this moment, Huang Yi’s voice came from the mouth of the incarnation; it was now another body of Huang Yi.
"Transform into Agile Cat!" In the next moment, the incarnation’s body shifted, changing into the small Agile Cat Form.
"Midair Change of Direction!" The Agile Cat leaped into the air, its body abruptly shifting and turning in another direction.
"Transform into Beast King!" The Agile Cat transformed into the humanoid Beast King.
"Pursuit!" The incarnation surged forward, dashing towards the distance.
Huang Yi controlled the incarnation and tested many abilities in quick succession, with all results being exceptionally smooth, without the slightest obstruction, as if he was controlling his own body. This incarnation shared all the abilities of his original body, even the Eye of Time could be used.

Friends, this book was originally written in 2013, but in 2015, I spent two months refining the first 2.7 million characters of this book, especially focusing on the VIP Chapters at the later part. It was a colossal undertaking that required a substantial amount of effort to revise. Perhaps, there’s never been such a vast project to revise an entire book on Starting Point, and even I find it quite unbelievable. The new version has corrected most of the irrational plot points, optimized some of the redundant and verbose sentences, fixed some erroneous bugs, and added some exclusive content, making it overall more exciting. This version you are currently reading is available only on Starting Point, and you can see it by subscribing.
The other websites are unable to synchronize this latest version and are still showing the old 2013 content, with many areas not matching up. There might be contradictions, Chapter disarray, and abnormal Chapter content, especially the new plotlines that I wrote according to the new version might not match up with the old ones. The content seen on other websites may be completely different from what is seen on Starting Point.
So please come to Starting Point to read it, for a more thrilling and coherent version. If friends reading on Starting Point Web spot any incongruities or issues, you can let me know by posting a review or by adding my QQ: 398115791. However, this possibility is quite small as the Starting Point version, after the extensive revisions, should not have any issues.
