Burn yourself, you must burn yourself!
This is the only way Ding Huan found. If he cannot identify the problem within his body through normal means, he must burn his own flesh and Divine Soul.
Ding Huan cultivates the Great Cosmos Technique. He does not have a Primordial Spirit, but he does have a Divine Soul.
Only by being ruthless to himself can he achieve Nirvana and rebirth.
Otherwise, if he gets plotted against, it serves him right.
What hardships has he not experienced in his past life? He was even burned to death in his past life, so what harm is there in going through it again?
Maybe identifying that presence in the leather scroll would cause him greater loss.
At least without that presence in the leather scroll, he wouldn't have been able to create the Great Cosmos Technique, the Nirvana Technique, or reached where he is today.
But since he is alive, he must live clearly. He must live for himself, not to constantly be someone else's puppet.
