This is a renowned top grade secret technique of the Devilish Dao. It allows one to create a clone by infusing the spiritual sense in a body.

The External Reincarnation Technique (外道轮回) is a top-grade secret technique of the Devilish Dao. It is primarily used to create a powerful, independent clone by infusing a portion of the user’s spiritual sense into a secondary body.

Key Features of the Technique

  • Clone Creation: It allows a cultivator to control a second body. The protagonist, Han Li, notably uses this technique on his companion Crooked Soul (Zhang Tie).
  • Independent Survival: Unlike standard illusions, the clone created through this method (especially when combined with the Profound Nascent Formation Arts) can potentially survive and function even if the main body perishes, as they share memories and emotions.
  • Integration with Other Arts: Han Li uses it to help his clone form a Fiend Core using Five Elements Blood Cores, granting the clone power comparable to a Core Formation cultivator.
  • Classification: It is categorized under the Profound Yin Arts, a collection of techniques often associated with darker or more “devilish” cultivation paths.

Comparison with External Incarnation

While similar in name, the External Reincarnation Technique is distinct from the External Incarnation Technique. Reincarnation methods in RMJI often involve more permanent soul-binding or the use of corpses/external vessels to house a secondary soul, whereas incarnations are often temporary manifestations or projections of energy.
