Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 787: Chapter 786: Minor Skills of a Carver (4 More!)

As Su Han’s voice fell, the mass of black fog in the void began to dissipate, and the wails of agony within it gradually faded away. When listened to again, the screaming became serene.

”Master Wuliang, now tell me, is this still a Demon Thought?” Su Han retorted.

After these words, Master Wuliang fell silent, as if unwilling to argue with Su Han any longer, or perhaps... unable to refute!

”What you describe as Demon Thoughts are merely notions in your own mind. If you are truly devoted to goodness, you should not speak of converting Demon Thoughts. If such thoughts really do exist, and before their death, they were all people, then by converting them, you deny them the chance of reincarnation. Master Wuliang, please tell Su, is this killing, or is it saving?” Su Han pressed on relentlessly, each word sharply articulated.

”Once a person has died, they can no longer reincarnate, so how can it be said that we are killing?” Master Wuliang said.

”Then let me ask you another question, Master. Do you believe that spirits truly exist after death?” Su Han asked.

”Of course, they do,”

Master Wuliang raised his head: ”After death, a soul will emerge, and...”

”Then if there really are souls, what exactly are they, ghosts or spirits?” Su Han interrupted him directly.

”I believe that good thoughts are spirits, and evil thoughts are ghosts,” Master Wuliang said, hands joined in prayer as he continued to chant.

”Hahaha, Master, you are mistaken!”

Su Han burst out laughing, ”Some people, before their death, are filled with extreme resentment and unwillingness, having been murdered without reason and unable to attain revenge. The souls that they leave behind, are what you call evil thoughts. Do such souls also need salvation?”

”And there are those who did nothing good in life but desire to repent after death. Are they what you term as good thoughts? Do they too need to be converted?”

”Stubborn talk, which I cannot agree with,” Master Wuliang said.

”In my view, this is not stubborn talk, but the Master’s own presumptuousness, right?”

Su Han squinted, staring at Master Wuliang: ”You say evil thought, and hence the person is an evil thought. You say good thought, and so the person becomes a good thought. Master, I ask you, in this world, how should we distinguish between good and evil thoughts?”

Master Wuliang fell silent, or perhaps, Su Han’s words had shaken what he had believed to be his extremely firm conviction in Buddhism.

What a joke, Su Han had lived for countless eons, had chanted scriptures before Buddha for ten thousand years, and yet, he still hadn’t seen through the mortal world.

In Su Han’s eyes, those who were believed to have seen through life were merely full of themselves. Perhaps there really were such people in the world, but Master Wuliang definitely was not one of them!

In simplest terms, this so-called conversion was just one of the methods of Buddha Mountain. They could kill without trace, using the notion of good and evil to stimulate people’s minds, thus achieving bloodless murder.

Regrettably for Master Wuliang, he had encountered Su Han.

”Holy Cold Divine Guard, Starry Pavilion Divine Guard, take action!” Su Han stared unflinchingly at Master Wuliang and shouted loudly.

”Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”

All at once, several figures burst forth, with Dragon Power unfolding, charging towards the people of Buddha Mountain.

At the same time, the Purple Night Divine Guard laid down arrays of defense, while the Bright Moon Divine Guard stood still, unmoving.

The only ones in the Phoenix Sect who hadn’t taken action were Su Han and the Bright Moon Divine Guard.

In Su Han’s view, the overall strength of Buddha Mountain was worlds apart from that of the Phoenix Sect. However, Buddha Mountain’s methods were somewhat strange, and if they really encountered someone devout in Buddhism, they might truly be ensnared by Buddha Mountain’s doctrines.

”Golden Body!”

As the people of Phoenix Sect charged forward, Master Wuliang’s eyes flashed, and as he spoke, the many Buddha Mountain disciples behind him immediately spread their hands apart and fiercely clapped them together. In that moment, Dragon Power surged out with a roar, transforming into illusory figures that stood upon them.

They indeed stood upon their bodies, and at a glance, the illusory figures had the same appearance as them. As they appeared, a heaven-reaching Jin Guang flickered into existence, accompanied by an irritating buzzing sound that condensed into waves, violently assaulting the side of Phoenix Sect.

”All thoughts of good and evil are without basis, you only need to know that if your hearts are clear, that is enough!” Su Han’s voice entered everyone’s ears.

Both Holy Cold Divine Guards and Starry Divine Guards trembled, an ice-cold glare emerging in their eyes.

”Boom boom boom...”

All sorts of attacks were unleashed at once, directly cutting through the sound wave assault issued by Buddha Mountain, and even more so, they bombarded the Golden Bodies of many Buddha Mountain disciples.

To everyone’s astonishment, although the Buddha Mountain disciples had a higher Cultivation Base than the members of Phoenix Sect, in terms of actual strength, they were not a match for Phoenix Sect at all.

And yet, when the Holy Cold Divine Guard and Starry Divine Guard struck their Golden Bodies, those bodies vigorously shook for a moment but did not shatter.

Inside, the Buddha Mountain disciples remained as still as old monks in meditation, not moving a muscle.

”Hm?”

Everyone furrowed their brows, finding it somewhat inconceivable.

As for the outsiders paying attention to this scene, many burst into laughter.

In their view, Buddha Mountain was merely a Second-Rate Sect, while Phoenix Sect was a First-Class Sect personally ennobled by One Slash Palace. If Phoenix Sect couldn’t even defeat Buddha Mountain, there was no need to consider the rest.

”His Golden Body, though separate, is actually just one,” Su Han suddenly spoke up from the platform.

His gaze had been fixed on Master Wuliang, and upon hearing his own words, the latter’s closed eyes trembled slightly. A smile immediately appeared on the corner of Su Han’s mouth.

”Such techniques, I have seen too many of them.”

”Holy Cold Divine Guard, create a space channel, pierce through one of those Golden Bodies, and you can break through this Technique.”

”Yes!”

The Holy Cold Divine Guard immediately nodded, and then, following what Su Han had said, began to open up a space channel.

Such potency of the space channel was enough to pierce through even the Light Pillars erupting from large well mouths in the Ancient Battlefield, let alone these small Golden Bodies.

”Buzz~”

As the channel formed, it slashed a black trajectory through the void above the platform, moving with incredible speed and directly hitting one of the Golden Bodies of a Buddha Mountain disciple.

”Crack!”

Under the impact, the Golden Body first developed a hole, then abruptly let out a brittle sound, with Pattern Marks rapidly appearing and spreading in all directions, quickly covering all the Golden Bodies of the Buddha Mountain disciples.

Finally, with a loud bang, the Golden Body completely shattered!

”How did you know?” Master Wuliang opened his eyes and looked at Su Han.

”Merely a trivial skill.”

Su Han shook his head slightly and continued, ”Master Wuliang, I need to remind you that in this world, survival does not depend on your thoughts of right and wrong. This is a world where strength is revered. If you truly devote yourself to Buddhism, then the first thing you need to do is to reach the level of transforming your body into a Buddha.”
