Chapter 157: Average
Monk Fusan was a famous figure in the previous era.
He was an outstanding genius of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower’s younger generation. He belonged in the same generation as Daoist Priest Daoyi’s Master. In fact, both of them had personally met a few times.
“What did your master praise me for?” Fusan asked curiously.
“My master said that you are the monk with the closest realm of enlightenment to Buddha, a very pure person,” Daoist Priest Daoyi replied.
“That’s a pretty high evaluation…”
“Please express my gratitude to your master for me,” said Monk Fusan.
“But I disagree!” Daoist Priest Daoyi retorted coldly.
Fusan looked at Daoist Priest Daoyi and asked, “Why?”
“You are just an average monk. You can’t even differentiate between what is right and wrong.”
Daoist Priest Daoyi looked at Monk Fusan. He didn’t hold back in his words.
“How can you say so?” Monk Fusan remained calm as he asked another question.
“Was your current ability bestowed upon you by the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower?”
Daoist Priest Daoyi questioned.
“Of course…”
“I was abandoned by my family after I was born. It was my master who brought me into the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower and taught me the ways of cultivation which still benefits me till this day.” Monk Fusan nodded.
“Since you know that your cultivation base was bestowed upon you by the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower, let me ask you, then…”
“Who was it that destroyed the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower?”
Daoist Priest Daoyi coldly asked.
Monk Fusan immediately replied, “The Yuhua God Dynasty destroyed the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower.”
“Then, on whose side are you on?” Daoist Priest Daoyi shouted sternly.
“I’m on the Yuhua God Dynasty’s side!” Monk Fusan calmly replied.
One was an angry-looking man who was about to erupt.
There was a stark contrast between the two, one looked as if he was about to erupt in fury.
The other seemed to be a calm and tranquil lake that remained undisturbed for millions of years.
“Your Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower was destroyed by the Yuhua God Dynasty…”
“But instead of taking revenge, you became a dog for the same dynasty that destroyed your roots? My master was wrong for saying that you are a very pure person.” Daoist Priest Daoyi sneered.
He looked down on Monk Fusan.
This monk actually came to stop him and stood on the side of his supposed-to-be mortal enemy.
Monk Fusan had truly wasted the praise that his master had given to him.
The world continued to watch, curious as to why Monk Fusan wanted to help the Yuhua God Dynasty.
In the previous era, Monk Fusan was an outstanding genius.
Especially in this era, he was strong enough to become the leader of this brand-new era.
But his attitude towards the Yuhua God Dynasty was incomprehensible.
Why was he helping the Yuhua God Dynasty?
It has to be known that the Yuhua God Dynasty had just recently destroyed the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower!
The Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower that existed for thousands of years was destroyed just like that.
“Patron, everything in this world has its causes and effects. The destruction of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower was because it created a cause and received its effect…”
“The reason why I am here now is also that I have also planted a cause and have obtained the resulting effect.” Monk Fusan explained.
“What cause? What effect? What nonsense! You are merely deceiving yourself! What matters is that instead of taking revenge, you’re now standing on the side of the enemy that destroyed your Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower!” Daoist Priest Daoyi sneered.
“I can’t talk with you on the same page then, Patron.”
Monk Fusan shook his head, not attempting to argue with a fool.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower was built to suppress the demonic creatures in the demonic dens. But later on, to continuously suppress those demonic creatures throughout the future generations, it developed into a powerful Buddhist sect.
In short, the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower was built precisely because of the demonic dens.
But with the disappearance of those demonic dens, the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower had also lost its raison d’etre.
As for taking revenge?
Monk Fusan had never thought of it.
In fact, his priority was to express his sincerest display of gratitude for Lin Jiufeng’s actions of annihilating the demonic creatures and destroying those demonic dens. If not for Lin Jiufeng, he would’ve long died alone beneath the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower.
But he couldn’t possibly explain all of these to Daoist Priest Daoyi.
Thus, Monk Fusan decided to keep his silence.
He didn’t say anything anymore.
“Monk, seeing that you are from the same generation as my master, I’ll pretend that I didn’t see anything. Leave.” Daoist Priest Daoyi uttered coldly.
“What if I stayed?” Monk Fusan asked.
“What if you stayed?” Daoist Priest Daoyi’s eyes turned cold. “If you won’t leave, then don’t blame me for being impolite. I won’t show you any mercy. Just remember that if you lost to me, you will lose a lot of face.”
Monk Fusan waved his hand and said, “Compared to your master, you’re still lacking in the arrogance department.”
“If it were your master, he would’ve attacked the Forbidden City long ago, yet here you are still talking non-stop.” Monk Fusan shook his head and added.
Daoist Priest Daoyi’s master was much more arrogant and narcissistic than him.
Compared to his master, Daoist Priest Daoyi was more of a chatterbox than a pursuer of justice.
Boom!
Daoist Priest Daoyi was enraged.
He tried to persuade this monk with kind words, but Monk Fusan mocked him instead.
He became angry that he directly slapped down toward Monk Fusan.
The Mountain Overturning Seal erupted once again.
It stirred and manifested its terrifying might.
The technique he used with the Mountain Overturning Seal was an offensive technique from his sect.
It was very powerful, to say the least.
A charm containing a hint of the Dao condensed and instantly smashed down.
It became akin to a huge mountain that had seemingly overshadowed the sun, moon, and the galaxy itself as it smashed down fiercely at its foe.
In the air above the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty, a huge mountain appeared out of nowhere and directly encompassed the entire capital.
With a rumbling sound, it was about to smash apart the gates of the capital.
Daoist Priest Daoyi was truly furious.
The move he displayed was exactly the same when he fought against Li Chengfeng.
But this move of his alone couldn’t even win against Li Chengfeng, how could he possibly hope to defeat Monk Fusan with this?
Monk Fusan raised his hand.
The Mount Meru suspended above his palm directly erupted.
It transformed into a Buddhist Kingdom that shrouded the Mountain Overturning Seal.
Rumble!
Monk Fusan’s body trembled a few times.
“Your body is very weak.”
Daoist Priest Daoyi instantly saw through Monk Fusan’s weakness.
The Mountain Overturning Seal didn’t have any effect against Mount Meru, but when Monk Fusan endured the brunt of the attack with his body, he actually trembled a few times.
Of course, his recovery was quick.
But it became obvious that his body was inferior to Li Chengfeng.
Monk Fusan’s cultivation base was much stronger than Li Chengfeng’s.
He was the one who improved the fastest during the recovery of the world’s spiritual energy.
Therefore, Daoist Priest Daoyi immediately guessed that Monk Fusan’s physical body itself was the weakest link in the chain.
“I’ve recently just come out from a life and death battle.” Monk Fusan directly explained.
He didn’t bother hiding anything.
“So you’ve just emerged from a life and death battle, yet you still dared to come here and stop me?” Daoist Priest Daoyi became so angry that he started laughing.
“If it was your master, I might never appear.”
“But you…”
“Someone like you whose strength is only average won’t pose a problem to me!”
Monk Fusan calmly retorted.
Average!
Average!
Average!
Daoist Priest Daoyi’s expression changed.
He stared at Monk Fusan and shouted, “You will pay the price for looking down on me!”
Boom!
A streak of heavenly fire descended, followed by a sea of flames.
The Heaven Burning Domain directly appeared, instantly enveloping Monk Fusan.
“I’m going to burn you to ashes. Let’s see how many world-shaking Buddhist relics can be formed from your remains.” Daoist Priest Daoyi shouted coldly.
He spread his five fingers, and his True Qi burst out like a waterfall.
It covered the sky and caused it to tremble.
Those that saw this move of his were astounded.
How terrifying was this Heaven Burning Domain? There was heavenly fire everywhere, and it was also a more powerful heavenly fire!
Monk Fusan, who was surrounded by flames, didn’t panic nor kick up a fuss.
He remained calm throughout.
He raised Mount Meru up with his palm.
Then, he pressed down forcefully.
Rumble!
A Buddhist mountain manifested in the mortal realm.
It looked very imposing as it stood in the air.
Amidst the boundless flames, the golden body of a Buddha appeared.
Its humongous body emanated a majesty befitting to that of Buddha.
With a flip of its palm, it looked like a Buddhist swastika was pressing down.
The sight of it alone sent chills down to those that dared to look straight at it
“This feeling…” Daoist Priest Daoyi watched in shock.
“Is that the Golden Body of Buddha?” Daoist Priest Daoyi looked at Monk Fusan in disbelief.
The monk whom he thought was weak could actually condense the Golden Body of Buddha?
That was equivalent to a cultivator taking half a step into the realm of Immortals!
“As I said, if your master was the one who’s here, I might never appear…”
“It’s because I haven’t perfected this move just yet. My understanding of it is still superficial, to say the least.”
“But against you, it won’t be a problem.”
“Because in the eyes of the true powerhouses, you are just average!”
Monk Fusan muttered softly.
The golden body stretched out its hand and pressed down.
It gathered the millions of flames in its palm and slapped them down.
Boom!
