The drawbacks of the Heavenly Five Decays are evident, and the Five Phase Souls gradually produce negative effects.
If the Heavenly Five Decays are acquired after birth, Ashen would have died prematurely from birth defects. Innate Taoist Body, however, would not harm itself.
But the ones who suffer are naturally Ashen's close friends and relatives.
If Ashen had a Spirit Root, as long as he started cultivating, he could control the Heavenly Five Decays at will. Unfortunately, at that time, he wasn't even a Five Spirits Root.
Originally thought he could gain the protection of the Immortal Sect, but ended up with the fate of a scattered soul.
After Li Mo imprinted the Heavenly Five Decays, an anomaly emerged in the somewhat barren Mud Pill Palace—different from the usual Three Souls and Seven Spirits, the "Five Phase Souls" began to take shape.
By observing the Heavenly Five Decays, he quickly understood the role of the Taoist Body.
