Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Second, it\'s the endless stamina of the earth. The Metal Legion could recuperate its stamina by drawing energy from its surroundings.

As soon as these changes occurred, Zhen Biyu\'s troops regained the initiative in the battle. Their defensive capabilities surpassed the Vajra Legion, allowing them to use their opponent\'s tactic against them.

They ignored all defensive maneuvers and attacked the Vajra Legion like they had no fear of death; they were more relentless than an hungered animal after acquiring their first meal in months.

Sadly, this advantage did not last long. Feng Heng soon showed the world what the word Vajra meant. His troops\' bodies suddenly crystalized and turned into diamonds, reversing the situation when it came to defensive advantage.

So, Zhen Biyu frowned as she watched these muscular diamond-like men slaughtering her troops.

\'I really should have placed more emphasis on training these people,\' she summarized. She no longer hesitated and summoned the remaining three legions: Water, Fire, and Wood.

As soon as they appeared, her soldiers formed an array. They knew they could not defeat their opponent in a direct confrontation. So, they chose to render them immobile.

The Wood Dao aspect of the formation activated, generating thousands of tree trunks in the surrounding space. The environment this battle took place was composed entirely of fire.

And since fire counters wood in the Five Element Theory, these woods should have been drastically reduced in size and strength. However, Zhen Biyu was a master of the five elements and would not make such a mistake.

Her array absorbed the fire energy in the environment to increase her strength, giving her the home advantage.

Feng Heng calmly looked at the change in the situation. Most of her Vajra Legion was captured by tree roots. Luckily, they were alive due to their scary defense.

Feng Heng remained calm as he waved his hand to summon another legion. As soon as these people appeared, they appeared odd since they did not look like soldiers.

They had no armor or the suffocating aura of people from the military. They wore yellow monk cassocks and looked like people who spent all their time reciting the sutra and debating the dharma.

And that was precisely the purpose of their existence.

This legion, composed of highly enlightened monks, was one of Feng Heng\'s most remarkable achievements in the revival of Buddhism.

These monks opened their mouths and the sound of chanting reverberated between heaven and earth. These words contained magical powers, affecting the surrounding.

Their first effect was to heal members of the Vajra Legion injured during the previous confrontation. This chant\'s power even saved the fallen soldiers\' remnant souls.

The second effect was to bless the captured Vajra Legion. Immediately, these soldiers felt a mysterious power entering their minds and bodies; they felt their minds rejuvenated and a surge of power.

Immediately afterward, they tore apart these indestructible wood roots. And with their increased speed, they now could tear apart the wood faster than the latter could regenerate.

The last effect of the chanting was to affect the mind of Zhen Biyu\'s troops. The chanting contained a devastating temptation to the soul, rapidly making her legions sluggish as they wished to sleep and rest.

During this process, Feng Heng had a brilliant smile on his face. He could not remember the last time he displayed such a genuine smile. The sound of chanting woke up many memories sealed deep in his subconscious.

These memories were from when he was young, living during the reign of the Buddhist Sect. Every morning he would wake up from the sound of his fellow disciples chanting the sutra.

And when he first joined the monastery, he also had to learn and chant the sutra in the morning; this process was a form of enlightenment before beginning his cultivation journey.

\'What a wonderful sight,\' thought Feng Hengas, reminiscing. After the fall of Buddhism, all spells and abilities were unusable because of the Absolute Beginning Spell.

Over the years, Feng Heng has tried many methods to preserve the legacy of his seniors and masters. However, he began to despair as time passed. At many points, he even questioned the existence of Buddhism because of how much their techniques and spell failed to function.

His mission almost drove him to madness. He often questioned his memories, his past, and his very origin. And many times, he contemplated ending his miserable life to end all this misery.

Luckily, he had something that prevented him from reaching the abyss of despair–the Western Pure Land. This place was a forbidden land for all sentient beings in the Myriad Emperor World except for him.

The Western Pure Land was the only place not much affected by the Absolute Beginning Emperor\'s spell. So, Feng Heng could practice Buddhist Spells, Sutra, and Techniques.

Whenever he felt like losing himself and doubting his mission, he would enter that place to return to his origin.

\'It won\'t be long before Buddhism can officially appear openly in the world. And that day is not long.\'

While Feng Heng was undergoing this emotional roller coaster, Zhen Biyu was in a dilemma by the chanting of these monks. As she watched many of them fall from the air to the flame below, she acted swiftly and ordered them to link their minds to resist the effect of this attack.

Then, she changed tactics and used the Earth and Fire Element. Her array first released a terrifying flame a billion times hotter than the hottest star. Such temperature should have been enough even to melt diamonds.

However, the Vajra Legion was now a bunch of soldiers on drugs. A better way to explain it would be they had too much adrenaline pumping through their veins.

As such, this attack was useless. However, Zhen Biyu\'s strategy was not as simple as this. The fire was a distraction from the real blow.

The Fire Element combined with the Earth Element, but it did not create magma. No, it created a cloud of white substance–it created volcanic ashes.

The volcanic ash immediately did countless damage after it appeared. It destroyed anything in its path and instantly poisoned myriad soldiers from the Vajra Legion. If not for the blessing and protection of the eminent monks, even more people would have died.

Feng Heng\'s response to her attack was to summon another legion of monks. However, these monks were also different. They wore black cassocks and had eyes as red as the clearest ruby.

An intense baleful aura emanated from their bodies, followed by countless grievances from dead souls full of resentment.

\'An Evil Monk Legion?\' analyzed Zhen Biyu. \'Based on their karmic sins, he must have captured countless devil cultivators and forcefully converted them into monks.\'

As soon as these evil monks appeared, they opened their mouths to the volcano ash poison; the process was fast and had no resistance. These monks treated the poison like any nourishing food.

Then, the evil monks began to attack the enemy\'s Five Element Troops and Array. Their methods were ruthless, scary, and disgusting. They summoned rivers of blood to drown their opponent.

They manipulated the souls of the dead as their puppets used their sins to affect the mind, and many of them were masters of poisons and Insect Dao.

They had no bottom line and did whatever was necessary for victory. Meanwhile, the eminent monk legion aided them. Their chant would heal the evil monks and give them different stat blessings–including protection to their minds.

Many of the methods of these evil monks affected their minds, making them lost in the endless killing or slaughter. Losing their mind granted them higher battle prowess, but it also rendered them incapable of differentiating between their enemies and allies.

  However, the chanting of the monks solved this issue, protecting their minds so they did not entirely fall into madness.

\'Yin and Yang,\' thought Zhen Biyu as she reacted to the different tactics these devil cultivators turned into monks. She realized Feng Heng\'s legion was the embodiment of Yin and Yang.

The evil monks embodied all that is Yin, hence the reason that poison had no effect on them and could even be used as nourishment.

Then, the eminent monks embodied Yang, focusing more on auxiliary abilities instead of pure killing.

\'What is his main Dao? Is it Yin and Yang?\'

Feng Heng became an unpredictable anomaly after the reveal of his betrayal. At first, many people believed he followed his ancestor and cultivated Absolute Beginning as a Dao.

In all his previous confrontations and battles, he mainly used this Dao. However, after it was revealed he was a Buddhist Monk, people wondered whether he was hiding his true Dao to hide his identity.

Two generations ago, all the Heaven Chosen suffered because the Nine Sun Emperor hid his main Dao until the last moment of his battle. So, no one wants to make the same mistake.

So, all Heaven Chosen have been warned to be on guard against Feng Heng after the news of his betrayal.
