Chapter 582 Heart of Hope

Monk Wuzhi used a talisman to become invisible before heading straight into Feng Heng"s mansion. With excitement, Feng Heng opened the house"s formation to receive the guest. He immediately bowed:

"s.h.i.+ Fuyu, Elder of the Zen Heart Monastery, has seen Monk Wuzhi."

"I know the Zen Heart Monastery. They have cultivated many great Buddhas," replied Monk Wuzhi before returning the bow. In the Eternal Ascension World, the t.i.tle of Buddha is not given to anyone, nor is it given to someone based on their strength and cultivation.

At least, those two are not the main criteria. A monk must deeply understand scriptures, contribute significantly to Buddhism, and have many merits. Finally, they have to have their own doctrine and debate it before a group of Buddhas before the t.i.tle is granted to them.

Otherwise, a person can only have the Honorary Buddha t.i.tle and not the real thing.

"D-Does, the Zen Heart Monastery still exist in the upper dimension?" hurriedly asked Feng Heng.

"Yes. And not just it, but all the factions destroyed by that devil Absolute Beginning."

"Good, good, good. I thought I was alone; I thought our inheritance was gone," muttered s.h.i.+ Fuyu, with tears in the corner of his eyes. Monk Wuzhi sighed before patting his shoulder.

"I know you"ve been through a lot. But things will be alright from now on. My master has given her words she will do everything possible to atone for her mistake back then."

"I would never dare blame the Maitreya Mother."

"A mistake is a mistake," said Monk Wuzhi sternly. "As such, even my master cannot ignore this fact."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu exhaled softly, feeling some weight lifting from his shoulder. He felt the burden he had carried for millions of years was worth it after hearing these rea.s.suring words.

At least his pain and suffering were acknowledged.

"I"m sorry for my rudeness," said s.h.i.+ Fuyu as he realized he was still at the entrance, which was very rude. "Come in; I"ll serve tea."

"No need; I"m in a hurry."

"In that case, Reverend Wuzhi, what brings you to see me?" asked s.h.i.+ Fuyu.

"My master sent a few things for you," replied Monk Wuzhi before giving him a s.p.a.ce ring. "These are some of the lost inheritance from back then, along with a few more from the upper dimension. There are also better methods to purify incense and prevent the same problem from occurring again."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu"s eyes lit up as these were the things he needed. He feared Buddhism to repeat its mistake, resulting in another annihilation.

"My master said you have little to no chance at winning this generation"s Heaven Will Battle."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu frowned: "Is it because of w.a.n.g Wei?"

"If nothing unexpected occurs, it will be between him and Di Tian."

"Tao-Buddhism"s Qi Luck is connected to the Myriad Emperor World. So, it would be ideal to prove the Dao there. If I prove the Dao in other World Communities, I might not be able to eradicate the Absolute Beginning Magic completely."

"My master is aware of this," replied the monk, taking out a scroll and handing it over. "You can partic.i.p.ate in the final battle if you want. But, if all fails, this is your way out."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu looked at the scroll"s t.i.tle: Merit Proving Dao Method. He quickly skimmed through it, his eyes becoming brighter with each page he read.

"Thank you."

"No need for formality. All you need is inside the s.p.a.ce ring," added Monk Wuzhi. "My master said w.a.n.g Wei will be a great ally, so try not to become enemies with him."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu raised his brow.

"I know you want Buddhism to rule the upcoming era. But that"s not possible. We already had our turn, so we must wait a while again to maintain the universe"s balance."

"But, haven"t we paid enough?"

"Yes," nodded Monk Wuzhi. "Our destruction was a mistake in the first place; an anomaly. So, Heavenly Dao owes us and will aid in our revival. But, it cannot allows us to rule another era so soon."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu sighed in frustration; he had suspicions once he saw the Glorious Age of the Myriad Emperor World. Acquiring the Yin-Yang Eyes required too many things to go right.

And given how easy it was for him to create a flaw in the Absolute Beginning Magic, he had suspicions that something was helping him. Of course, s.h.i.+ Fuyu did underestimate his efforts and contributions.

"Last thing," said Monk Wuzhi. "Zhang Yucheng will definitely try to kill you. So, during this time, stay in your mansion behind the formations."

The monk sighed aloud: "The best course of action was to hide inside the Western Pure Bliss Land. However, I doubt Zhang Yucheng will give you a chance."

"Reverend, I can help you."

"You are not his opponent. So, there is no need to risk your life."

"That may be so, but I still have the Heart of Hope."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu could live for long because the Buddhist Sect blessed them with the hopes of the entire sect: this was the Heart of Hope. This blessing granted him many abilities, including pseudo-immortality, increased comprehension, and exper hiding methods.

However, he also sacrificed it for battle strength.

"Don"t waste such a precious thing," hurriedly said Monk Wuzhi. "While proving the Dao, if you fail short of becoming an Eternal Emperor, you can use it to ask Heavenly Dao for help to give you a final push."

Heavenly Dao owes the lower dimension of Buddhism a great Karma since it was destroyed because of a miscalculation. As such, s.h.i.+ Fuyu can use the Heart of Hope to ask Heavenly Dao for help to become an Eternal Emperor.

"I-I understand," replied s.h.i.+ Fuyu.

Monk Wuzhi nodded, "Once everything is over, your main job is to quietly spread Buddhism as far as possible in the Endless Void."

s.h.i.+ Fuyu escorted the monk out with a smile, and once he was alone, a sharp look appeared in his eyes. He looked at the scroll again before looking at a large number of purple spheres inside the s.p.a.ce ring.

"If I can prove the Dao and use this merit method, I will be one of the most powerful Buddhas the lower dimension has ever seen. Only with such strength can I properly lead Buddhism."

Although he admired the Maitreya, Feng Heng had his ambitions and goals. As such, he was unwilling to give up on the Heaven Will Battle so easily.

As for the lack of strength? Sometimes, absolute strength does not determine the final victor. So, he went to rest, planning for the future. He decided to be cautious and stay in his mansion until the people from the upper dimension left.

w.a.n.g Wei"s mansion:

Through the Quantum Array, he saw Monk Wuzhi sneaking into Feng Heng"s mansion. He also saw the recording of Xu s.h.i.+ and Huo Fenghuang"s visit.

It was easy to guess Xu s.h.i.+"s motive because she was obsessed with her husband"s revival. Regarding Huo Fenghuang, her motive could be many. So, w.a.n.g Wei closed his eyes, connected to the Karma Thread he had on her, and divine some information.

"Bloodline? She wanted his bloodline?" he thought. "It seems the negotiation did not go as planned."

Regrettably, this was all the information he could gather since Ao Tianyi seemed to have some weird power protecting him. Nevertheless, he was satisfied. Nonetheless, he was satisfied with the information he got.

He felt it would be a few days before the situation with the oath was resolved. So, he decided to use this time to increase his strength. He went to his s.p.a.ce-Time Incarnation to enter a quick retreat.

Using the Primordial Star Essence from his ancestor and the Human Mushroom, he finally opened all 1.269 million Acupoints, and his True Power Dao Realm strength reached 33 Primordial Dragon Force.

w.a.n.g Wei clenched his hand as he sensed the surge of power flowing through his veins. According to his calculations, he had 6-Leaf Immortal Venerable strength if he used all his might, including Domain and soul.

And with the previous flaw in his Dao Heart removed, he was in peak shape, ready for any challenge.

After exiting his retreat, he received information that the trial would resume in two days. So, he checked on his other incarnations. Nothing much changed in such a short time. However, the Fate Incarnation finally created the method for establis.h.i.+ng the Spiritual Foundation/ Fate Palace.

And the other incarnations have already begun to create their Fate Palaces. They also began exchanging the materials that tempered their bodies with Chaos Ones.

According to his calculations, w.a.n.g Wei believed after the final fusion with his fleshly body, he would have the strength of 5-Root Dao Ancestors with 4.99% Grand Dao Source: the very pinnacle of Dao Ancestors.

Then, he will use science and technology to reach the Tenth Extremity.

As for how to achieve that, he had some ideas. He would use the Emperor"s blood and a unique spirit race. In the Heavenly Abode World, he found a stone bathed in Emperor"s blood during his battle with Di Tian.

Over the years, the stone gave birth to a spirit race born from Emperor"s blood. w.a.n.g Wei has been nurturing the spirit race since he believed it could be helpful later.

And after hearing his ancestors preach, he believed it could be used for him to reach the Tenth Extremity.

Two days later, w.a.n.g Wei flew to the trial"s gathering place. Midway to his fly, he suddenly stopped before teleporting somewhere.

Boom!

He punched with all his strength, not holding back in the slightest.
