“There can be hundreds or thousands of them. They can gather sand to form a mountain, gather water to form an ocean…”
This sentence should have been grand and impassioned, but when the old monk said it, Lin Yan only heard endless sorrow and despair.
“First, ten thousand Buddhist soldiers killed themselves before the Buddha. With their blood and resentment, they washed away the essence of the Buddha.
“Then, 3,000 Sons of Buddha were sealed in the stone coffins and worked together to wear down the essence of the Buddha.
“The Sons of Buddha were young. Every Son of Buddha was less than 19 years old when they entered the stone coffin. They were at the prime of their lives and their spiritual substance was at its peak.
“However, the youth’s temperament was fluctuating and was not long-lasting.
“Under the cleansing of the Buddha’s spirit, it was extremely painful. They changed at all times and were no longer human.
“In order for them to consume the spiritual essence of the Buddha for as long as possible, we had to wake them up at all times and let them find anchors as humans.
“Do you know how to make a person remember themselves forever and never forget?”
Lin Yan’s heart was as cold as ice. “How?”
“Hate! A monstrous hatred!”
The old monk’s body shook violently, and even the Illusionary Flower and Moon Technique swayed.
“Every Son of Buddha was carefully selected. They were orphans who had been bullied by nobles and their parents had died.
“Every Son of Buddha was also a world-shaking genius.
“Every one of them had a kind-looking and amiable master.
“Master treated the Son of Buddha like his own son. He took care of him in every way possible with all his heart.
“In the eyes of the Sons of Buddha, Master was their most trustworthy relative in this world.
“When every Son of Buddha completed his Heart Realm seed and reached the Heart Realm, his aura would be magnificent and he would reach the peak…
“It’s the day when the preparations were truly completed and the coffin was sealed!
“First, Master would use the excuse of advancing in martial arts to deceive the Son of Buddha into the coffin!
“After sealing the coffin, Master would tell him all the plans.
“Including their parents. They were also killed in a deliberate plan…
“The enmity of parents, the betrayal of the closest one, and the despair of life…
“Such monstrous resentment, under the catalysis of the special stone coffin and Unusual Item, made Son of Buddha the strongest vessel in the world. Moreover, for decades, the resentment would not dissipate. Only then would it be enough to digest and absorb the true spirit of Buddha…”
Lin Yan felt bone-chilling as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
Buddha Demon, Buddha Demon, what these monks of the Heavenly Eye Temple did was truly creating demons!
But what was even more terrifying was…
“The masters of every Son of Buddha actually agreed to such a plan? From the beginning, they adopted a child who was destined to become a vessel?”
Wang Yue was even more shocked. He closed his eyes and trembled slightly. He said in a low voice, “Of course not…”
“What?”
“In this world, only true love can be exchanged for true love.
“If Master knows the plan, how can he really establish the closest connection with the Son of Buddha?
“The Son of Buddha’s master… actually didn’t know that the Son of Buddha was going to be used as a vessel!”
Lin Yan’s pupils contracted. “Then they…”
“We deceived them!
“From the beginning, we deceived them!
“They really thought that this stone coffin was to help the Son of Buddha absorb the power of the Holy Buddha and break through the Heart Realm to an even stronger new realm!
“Including resentment, they also think that it was to protect the Son of Buddha, so they willingly cooperated…
“For this reason, they embedded their essence eyes into the Son of Buddha’s body. It was for the sake of helping the Son of Buddha complete the transformation at the critical moment!
“They firmly believed that everything they did was for the Son of Buddha to create a new realm. For this, they were willing to sacrifice themselves…”
Lin Yan felt a chill run down his spine. Without a doubt, only a demon could design such a terrifying plan…
“What happened after that? Did those masters discover it?”
“They naturally discovered it. Regret, anger, pain, madness…
“However, it’s useless. They were bound to the stone coffins by bronze chains. Special medicine was used to turn their flesh and blood into pus that seeped into the entire stone coffin!
“Together with their grievances, they would finally complete the last step of digesting the true spirit of the Buddha!”
So that was how the blood in the blood-colored stone coffin came…
In the end, the warmth and feelings between the Son of Buddha and his master became nourishment for this plan. Moreover, everything was not wasted at all. They were all maximized…
Lin Yan took a deep breath. “This is… the plan made by that emperor?”
The old monk was speechless.
“What a… devil!”
“Nonsense! Our emperor is the most benevolent and wise emperor in the world!”
Lin Yan looked at the old monk like he was looking at a fool. “Tell me, is the emperor who made such a plan the most benevolent and wise?”
The old monk’s face froze for a moment before he closed his eyes. His face was filled with sorrow and panic. “I don’t know, I really don’t know. The former emperor loved the people and cared about things. He was magnanimous, simple, and compassionate. He was born as a Holy Buddha Emperor. For the sake of his people, he could enter a desperate situation alone. The emperor died for the country… But one day, he suddenly…”
The old monk’s illusion shook and distorted again.
“Wake up! Wake up!”
Wang Yue suddenly trembled. The fluctuations on his body stabilized, and his expression became indifferent again.
He revealed a hint of melancholy. “I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you, young friend. In the past hundreds of years, although I occasionally woke up, I was still sleeping most of the time. Therefore, my mind was still slightly affected and I couldn’t control myself.. This is the price I have to pay for longevity…”
