Chapter 731: Endless Battles
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After an unknown amount of time, the white lights emitted from the Azure Dragon’s body finally dissipated.
Vigilante A landed and scanned his surroundings with an expressionless face.
What he saw was green everywhere. There was no longer any trace of the bloody energy.
On the river bank where everyone was, the trees were pulling out new shoots, the grass was growing once again, and the scene was full of vitality.
The river water was completely clear, with even the bottom was visible. Occasionally, some fish swam by, but there was no longer any of the bloodlust and killing of the past.
Seeing this, the River God of the Sky River was the first to step forward.
“The Venerable One’s remarkable ability has finally cleared away all the filth in one stroke. I’ve already clearly sensed that there’s no longer any evil consciousness in this arcane realm’s Heavenly Axiom. It seems that now that the Venerable One cleaned up the atmosphere, it has nowhere left to hide. It’s like a child now, and able to be molded as it should.” His face was full of smiles.
“Hm, it’s just a small matter. However, Senior River God is experienced and knowledgeable. Would you teach me how to control this Heavenly Axiom?” Vigilante A was very courteous.
“Very well, very well. With the Venerable One’s remarkable Natural Traits, you’ll understand instantly.” The River God of the Sky River accepted immediately.
The two people then instantly disappeared.
Qiao Zijiang was thoughtful and only felt that her brain was refreshed. She raised a finger, and a flame appeared on the tip of her finger.
“All the restrictions really are gone.” She said in pleasant surprise.
“We’re free…” Qiao Zishan breathed out a long sigh.
From the moment the situation changed, his tension had constantly been stretched taut for fear that one of his two closest relatives would die in front of him.
Even if a person’s soul could reincarnate, ghosts and people still walked different paths.
Now, the catastrophe had ended. Although many members were lost, it was a blessing in misfortune.
Although he had Morality, he still had some selfishness. After all, there were very few completely selfless people.
“That’s right, Uncle, how did the cultivation of your Path of Sanguinity go?” Qiao Zijiang suddenly turned and asked.
This was the fundamental purpose of the Truth Department sending people into this place.
Qiao Anping smiled and nodded, “I’ve already reached a higher plane of understanding. Killing was never the purpose. The purpose was to protect what you wanted to protect. Like the Venerable One who gets rid of demons and punishes the wicked on a daily basis, his purpose was not to kill, but to protect the people who are threatened by evil. This is the so-called Boundary of No Killing…”
“Congratulations, Uncle. You finally found your own Path.” Qiao Zijiang said from the bottom of her heart.
Qiao Zishan was also very excited. He always had an unexplainable worry.
As a person who was proficient in the Path of Morality, he had been deeply afraid that this close relative of his would degenerate into a devil because of the Path of Sanguinity.
That was because he was very clear how close the relationship between killing and the Path of Devils were.
However, he no longer had this worry. His uncle finally reached a higher realm.
“As expected, with a bright light ahead, the results really are remarkable.” His heart thought secretly.
This was true of all things in the world. Without a bright light in front of them, many people are unable to walk the right path, and could only sink back and forth in the dark.
The most obvious example was during China’s feudal era, which lasted for two thousand years and evolved the feudal system to the extreme. Endless cycles repeated, dynasties changed countless times, but the essence was still the same, and finally reached the pinnacle of suffocation.
Looking back at this history, it seemed to give people the feeling that it would continue evolving like that.
These three people naturally did not know that the System’s killing really was for the sake of killing, and not for any so-called protection… That was just an incidental and additional result.
Xu Rui was not jealous of his progress. He was also extremely lucky. He had not expected that he would be able to survive until the end. This experience was enough to provide him with the most robust details for his future bravery and diligence.
Walking with mighty beings, seeing the power of heaven and earth, experiencing mystical reversals and witnessing the wicked ideas of the Heavenly Axiom. All of these were not things that an ordinary Pond-level master had the opportunity to see.
Several people celebrated, but the Bodhisattva Spirit King and Tianjing Fawang went to another place, far away from everyone.
This Buddhist couple seemed to want to debate privately.
Before, they had a common enemy, so they had to compromise with each other and take one or two steps back. After all, there were ordinary people watching from the sidelines.
However, now that the enemy was gone, they had to speak clearly about the problem of implementing their previous promise.
“Bodhisattva, is there anything you could teach me?” Fawang asked respectfully.
He had no choice. Although Buddhism was powerful in the Upper Realm, it was the other party that was stronger now.
First, the other party’s position was simply too high. Secondly, he also had strong support.
Vigilante A’s relationship with the other party was much closer than the relationship with him.
He could tell a thing or two just by seeing the Azure Dragon’s attitude towards that green insect.
That insect was used by the Heavenly Axiom to devour countless creatures because of its gluttony. However, Vigilante A let it off easily after simply reprimanding it.
If it were other monsters doing this, even if they did it by accident, and contributed in abolishing the Heavenly Axiom’s power, would they not at least earn a beating as well?
“Let me ask you. How do you determine who is good or evil when you judge the souls of the departed?” The Bodhisattva Spirit King lightly asked.
Even after going around in circles, they still remained in the root of this arcane realm, which was receiving all the souls of the dead.
“Naturally, it’s through magic. I’ll look back on their past and handle them impartially.” Fawang responded seriously.
“That’s easy for you to say. Unfortunately, even Buddha cannot be fair. He will still be partial towards his family. What basis do you have to say that you make fair rulings?” The Bodhisattva mocked.
“Guard your tongue, Bodhisattva. My Buddha is merciful. All Buddhas have their own principles, they’re not something that people like us can comment on. If I fail in being fair, I can always leave a channel for the souls to appeal to the Venerable One. I’ll never try to cover up anything. With this, everyone will be satisfied.” Fawang put his palms together and said solemnly.
“That’s good. I know that you’re a rarely seen pure person in your Buddhism. All gods think that Buddhas and Bodhisattvas want to choose an upstanding person to descend and lay the foundation of their path. However, they don’t know that their motive is simply to find a piece of cannon fodder. It would be best if you sacrificed yourself. You’d even establish the image of martyrdom. Only when variables arise would you profit from a disaster and possibly achieve a higher fruition.” The Bodhisattva Spirit King lightly said.
Tianjing Fawang’s heart shivered violently. The Bodhisattva never lied. If he said so, then it had to be true.
However, he would not change his stance because of what the other party said.
Thus, he said nothing.
The Bodhisattva Spirit King shook his head, “It’s a shame that all upright people are stubborn and inflexible. It’s always the slippery people who are good at accommodating to circumstances. Forget it, you’re on your own in the future.”
He swept his sleeves and disappeared.
“Sigh…” Tianjing Fawang looked at the direction the Bodhisattva left and only let out a sigh after a long time.
‘This battle might have ended in a victory, but what of it? It’s just the starting point of the next battle.
‘Only when I’ve completely let everything go will I obtain true peace and tranquility…
‘Perhaps the reason why the Upper Realm died out was that the Upper Realm’s Heavenly Axiom grew tired…
‘In this world, would there be an existence that does not grow fatigued in the face of endless battles?’
‘There most likely isn’t.
‘Even someone as strong as the Venerable Dragon God, who’s more diligent than anyone and fights everywhere, would surely reach a day where he becomes tired of it all.’
While thinking of this, he slowly walked towards the distance.
