Chapter 594: 594
The majestic peak was imposing, situated up in the clouds .
The green cliff had trees twisting around like dragons with a cave by the midpoint . The entrance was an eight-meter-tall door made of stone . It looked like the dwelling of an immortal .
Feiyun was now wearing a white Buddhist robe, sitting in a meditative position beneath a Bodhi Tree outside of the entrance .
Complexion - perfectly white; brows - thick and tidy . His black-as-ink hair fluttered in the wind .
Anyone who sees him right now would see the word “calm” just an immovable boulder .
The Bodhi Tree towered at 300 meters . The leaves have grown for three hundred years yet still haven’t fallen . It carried an aura of vicissitudes .
The leaves rustled when the breezes came . A single leaf finally fell down, looking like a green butterfly .
A woman wearing a white buddhist dress came out; hair tied up in a buddhist bun with lotuses beneath her feet .
She was shrouded in a buddhist aura; only around the age of twenty but her eyes carried a sad and profound flash . This pair of eyes was polished by time . One would only have them after experiencing several hundred years .
She stood on the platform outside the entrance like a saintess . Her left hand held a string of green beads as she calmly said: "This is your sixty-fourth day of meditation, fifteen days longer than the previous . It looks like like the Calmheart Mantra is effective for you . ”
Feiyun has been here for nearly one year, cleansed by the mantra for the eighth time . The hatred in him has dispersed by half but the evil affinity remained, evident by his face’s appearance .
His hands were down at his dantian . He slowly opened his eyes with a faint, red circle around them, still cold: “How do you know I’ve awakened?”
His voice became normal again, no longer hoarse like before .
“I knew when the leaf fell down . ” The elegant woman stretched out two fingers and that exact leaf land on them .
Each of her action was beautiful, in tune with the rhythm of the heavenly dao .
She was the lord of Beastmaster Camp, Tan Qingsu . She was full of spirituality as if her very body was made from the laws of Buddhism, bereft of a single impurity .
She has cultivated for 470 years without taking a single step out of her sect . She spent half of her time on Skyhigh Peak and had reached a state of indifference . She resembled a drop of clear water and viewed everyone else in the same manner, including Feng Feiyun .
This was a mental state of Buddhism - all things are water .
“Beastmaster Camp is a sacred ground of Buddhism; no men are allowed to enter, so why did you want to save me?” Feiyun asked this question for the eighth time .
He did so after each of the previous cleansing processes .
Tan Qingsu looked like she was inside a painting of clouds . She calmly responded: “Because if I don’t, you will continue your rampage . It’s better to have a person instead of a bloodthirsty demon in this world . ”
Feiyun remained quiet .
He wouldn’t believe such sanctimonious words from just anyone . After all, who would save people for no reasons? No self-gains?
But it felt so natural coming from her - the love of Buddhism wanting to grant salvation to all . Perhaps this was because of her current mental state .
Qingsu said: “I didn’t answer you before because of the blind hatred . Just hearing the word, “kill”, would have stimulated your evil affinity . But after the eighth cleansing and meditation, your sanity has regained control . ”
“Then shouldn’t you remove the seal so I can leave?” Feiyun smirked .
Qingsu disagreed: “Far from enough . You need to experience the ninth cleansing and more than just that, stay and meditate in Buddhism for one hundred years then I can be sure enough to remove your seal, allowing you to leave . ”
“Why is that?” Feiyun’s eyes started to have a bloody color with some ferocity leaking out . His palms had a demonic glow .
“When Miss Dongfang brought you here, she wanted to ask for the help of my two Senior Uncle Ancestor . Unfortunately, one has left for Sacred Spirit Palace while the other is roaming the world and hasn’t returned for three hundred years . That’s why I personally chanted for you to chase away the heart devil and calming the beast souls . Of course, I can’t do it as well, so you need to cultivate Buddhism for a hundred years . ” She slowly said .
Feiyun closed his eyes, aware that Qingsu was only temporarily suppressing his evil affinity . Just a little stimulation could turn him into a demon again .
Feiyun had too many nefarious aspects looming within . Even the Nine-doves Gown couldn’t suppress all of them .
First one - the demonic energy in his blood .
Second - the evil energy of Yama’s Spine .
