YM778.TV Chapter 813 Philosophical Clash
He held a pair of meditation brown meditation beads, shining with brilliant golden light.
The young man had no hair and wore a monk cassock. Oddly though, the cassock contained the Yin-Yang Diagram of Taoism. These two contradicting philosophies perfectly blended with this young man, giving him a strange aura as he became the embodiment of Heaven and Earth.
And this was not the only contradictory thing about this young monk that was perfectly fused into one. Unlike his youthful appearance, the young man contained an aura full of vicissitude.
So, although time did not leave any trace on his face, anyone who met him would know he was old and gained countless wisdom through experience and the roughness of life.
Feng Heng suddenly opened his eyes, and the power of Yin-Yang manifested. If anyone gazed at him now, they would see the universe\'s evolution; they would understand concepts like changes, life, death, birth and aging, creation and destruction; they would see the relationship or interconnection between all opposites.
Feng Heng\'s calm and old gaze looked into the distance, "I can\'t believe someone found me."
Despite his calm tone, he was genuinely surprised; he knew his ability more than anyone else. Although he is currently limited by the fact he is no longer in a soul or spirit state, his hiding ability is still one of the best in the world–if not the best.
Yet, someone, no, a participant of his generation, discovered him.
A space crack manifested, and someone walked out.
"Zhen Biyu?" asked Feng Heng with a frown. He recognized the person who arrived but instantly felt something was wrong.
"Lord Feng Heng, it was not easy to find you."
Feng Heng continued to observe her, playing with his bead.
"Layman, it seems there is no hostility between us. So, why are you seeking me?"
"This is a battle until the last man standing. So, what if I don\'t have any animosity with you? Victory is reason enough to seek you," Zhen Biyu replied calmly, her green dress dancing with the same rhythm as the flame.
Her eyes were full of wisdom and brightness. And Feng Heng immediately knew what he felt was wrong. The Zhen Biyu he met before had pure and innocent eyes. Her temperament was similar, devoid of complex emotions or intense desires.
Furthermore, she had natural Dao Rhymes emanating from her body because of her Pure Heart that allowed her to have the highest affinity possible with Heaven and Earth.
However, the person before him had almost lost all her Dao Rhyme, replaced by an intense power of the Five Elements. Finally, her eyes contained deep wisdom and a well-hidden fighting intent.
Feng Heng resisted the urge to ask who she was because of the tremendous change. So, he secretly used the Buddhist Spell [True Heart] to see if she was like him–an old monster who possessed the former Zhen Biyu.
Luckily for him, she appeared to be her true self.
\'Good, it seems I don\'t have to deal with a new and unknown variable,\' thought Feng Heng.
"True," he replied to her. "However, something tells me this is not why you spent so much effort searching for me. Are you here because I betrayed the Taiyi Profound Gate?"
Feng Heng felt things were not that simple. After all, the relationship between the Taiyi Profound Gate and the Five Element Balance Palace was poor, to say the least. They would be happy the gate suffered after the betrayal.
"You are partially correct," replied Zhen Biyu. "Although our palace has contradictions with the Taiyi Profound Gate, we can agree on one thing–the rise of Buddhism is not permitted."
Feng Heng briefly paused as he once again felt things were not that simple.
"The world is vast; why can\'t both our religions exist peacefully?"
"The world might be vast, but resources are finite. Furthermore, only Taoism can be the main religion of the Myriad Emperor World."
Feng Heng knew his words were useless. After all, the contradiction between Taoism and Buddhism involved luck and destiny. So, it\'s virtually impossible for them to exist peacefully.
Since ancient times, when one is in power, the latter will be weakened and suppressed.
"The rise of Buddhism is the trend of Heaven and Earth," said Feng Heng with a deep sigh. He had support from the upper dimension and Heavenly Dao\'s protection, so he knew the rise of Buddhism was as unstoppable as the arrival of the new Glorious Era of the Myriad Emperor World.
As such, Buddhism\'s rise can be delayed, but it cannot be stopped.
"As long as I prove the Dao and become an Eternal, I can delay the rise of Buddhism for a few hundred generations. And during this time, my Five Element Balance Palace will have plenty of time to prepare."
\'She\'s completely different from the information I gathered,\' thought Feng Heng, thinking of the character analysis his spy team made about the latter.
\'Did the palace creates the change in her personality because of the lack of battle prowess of the Pure Heart?\'
The Pure Heart was one of the ultimate states for comprehending the Dao. However, it had a weakness–weak battle prowess. Countless battles and killings are needed to cultivate a peerless Heaven Chosens.
However, too much killing will ruin the innocence and pureness of the Pure Heart. So, it\'s impossible to cultivate any battle genius with this talent.
\'No, they would not ruin such a talent.\' The Pure Heart will manifest its\' horror in the Emperor Realm while comprehending the Grand Dao Source. \'So, the palace must likely create a second personality while sealing the Pure Heart.\'
Feng Heng remembered the Bodhi Heart Emperor from the Incense Era. He was a genius from the Buddhist Sect with a Pure Heart. The Buddhist Sect used this method to cultivate him into a peerless Pseudo Eternal Emperor.
All these thoughts flashed inside Feng Heng\'s mind in less than a second. Then, he smiled before saying: "Layman, I guarantee you cannot prove the Dao if I cannot."
Zhen Biyu squinted her eyes after sensing the ruthless dedication and will behind these words. Feng Heng would die with her to prevent Taoism from proving the Dao in this generation.
And since he had already laid the groundwork for Buddhism by fusing with Taoism\'s luck, it was a matter of time before the Buddhist Sect rose again.
With Taoism\'s luck and Heavenly Dao\'s favor, countless geniuses will be born in Buddhism. And as long as one can prove the Dao, their revival is guaranteed. And if they cultivate an Eternal Emperor, they can prosper or thrive.
Zhen Biyu immediately became on guard. She came here for two reasons. The first was due to the order of the Five Element Balance Palace. They calculated that capturing and killing Feng Heng could be the catalyst for the revival of the palace.
The Taiyi Profound Gate held most of the luck of Taoism in the Myriad Emperor World. After defeating the palace and chasing them out of the Central Continent, this was their trophy.
But now, Feng Heng also had access to that luck after connecting Buddhism and Taoism. So, their sect can revive and return to the Central Continent as long as they get their hands on him.
Of course, this was not the main reason Zhen Biyu spent so much effort searching for him; it was the excuse she used. The main reason is due to Emperor Five Heart.
The current Zhen Biyu was in a weird state. She was secretly influenced by the Emperor Five Heart, changing her personality and state of mind to become the best fighter possible.
However, she has no memories of things connecting her to Emperor Five Heart. Regardless, the Emperor can get some information from Zhen Biyu.
Recently, she felt something big was going to happen in the lower dimension. And her intuition even warned her of danger. So, she decided to take some risks.
She decided to use this clone to forcefully absorb the luck of Buddhism to help in her cultivation. Then, she will run away to the upper dimension.
After forcefully absorbing such a vast quantity of luck, increasing her cultivation by 5% in a very short period should be no problem.
And this was not the only part of her plan. After True Heavenly Dao closed the lower dimension, she decided to take even more risks and sent more than one clone to compete for the Heaven Will.
So, she also planned to forcefully steal the luck of a few powerful and ancient Emperor Lineage to help her cultivation.
Normally, her plan would not work since her artifact could not hide so many clones from Heavenly Dao. However, the changes in the lower dimension gave her an opportunity.
