Chapter 1360: Chapter 1374: The Bodhisattva Descends the Mountain

Princess Zi Jiang seemed to sense something as she looked at the sky, then calculated the date.

Her gaze changed slightly:

"The great hunt has begun."

When she noticed the Heavenly Eye Asura Lineage standing nearby, she understood where Jiang Fan’s anger came from.

With a calm expression, she said, "You’ve seen the bloodshed and cruelty of the great hunt?"

"Have you seen the life-and-death separation of the Asura Clan, witnessed the despair and misery of innocent beings?"

"So you empathize with them?"

"But, don’t humans also slaughter cattle and sheep, eating their meat?"

"In the eyes of cattle and sheep, what’s the difference between humans and us Ancient Giants?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan became calm instead, speaking indifferently:

"I knew you would raise this age-old paradox!"

"My answer is, perspective!"

"Cattle and sheep have the perspective of cattle and sheep, humans have the perspective of humans, Ancient Giants have the perspective of Ancient Giants, all beings have their own perspective!"

"I am Human Clan, I can only view everything from the perspective of Humans!"

"Standing from the perspective of other clans is a betrayal to Humans!"

"Therefore, if Ancient Giants eat my fellow Humans, they are my enemies, and I must destroy them!"

Princess Zi Jiang fell silent, sighing softly:

"Indeed, it’s you."

"I initially wanted to diminish your resistance to the Ancient Giants, it seems I thought too much."

"You are the kind of person whose thoughts are not easily swayed by others."

Her rhetoric of criminalizing humans and beautifying the invasion of Ancient Giants as the natural order of Heavenly Dao is age-old.

Those with unstable minds are easily led astray, falling into self-denial.

But Jiang Fan’s clear stance on race leaves no room for such rhetoric.

Jiang Fan’s eyes showed killing intent, saying, "One day, I will also ascend to the Heavenly Realm!"

"Let you watch with your own eyes as your Ancient Giants’ children die miserably before you!"

"I hope by then, you can use your own rhetoric to convince yourself not to be angry!"

Princess Zi Jiang said calmly, "Ascend to the Heavenly Realm?"

"A very bold thought, just like cattle and sheep wanting to overthrow Human’s rule."

"The thought is commendable, but not realistic."

Jiang Fan said, "When the wilderness is filled with people, a road naturally forms."

"For ten thousand years, those who wish to ascend to the Heavenly Realm, believe me, I am not the first, nor the last."

"When thousands and thousands of us walk this path, then, the road will surely appear!"

Princess Zi Jiang became silent.

She recalled a book she recently read, which contained an old saying from Human Clan.

Though the road is difficult, it will reach.

If only more humans were like Jiang Fan, full of wisdom and ambition for the well-being of all.

Who dares say, that day when Central Earth counter-attacks the Heavenly Realm, will not come?

She looked at Jiang Fan, saying, "I hope this time the Heavenly Realm completely conquers you."

"Eradicate all future troubles!"

Jiang Fan said, "I will make sure they come and never return!"

He put away his mirror, his mind filled with the image of that Asura Clan child running toward him.

His gaze became cold and determined.

"The task of guiding the Asura Clan, I have completed."

"Commander Bai, I bid you farewell."

Bai Xin asked, "Where do you plan to go?"

Jiang Fan looked towards the continent, saying, "Find my own path and grow stronger!"

Bai Xin calmly looked at Jiang Fan.

In her impression, this was the first time Jiang Fan had expressed his desire to become stronger so plainly.

"Alright, I wish you success," Bai Xin said.

Jiang Fan watched her leading the Asura Clan away until they nearly disappeared from view, suddenly recalling something, he asked:

"Commander Bai, have you seen the true visage of the Six-Path Masters?"

Bai Xin paused, turned back showing confusion, shaking her head, "No, why do you ask?"

Jiang Fan said, "Look into it when you have time, if you find anything, tell me."

Bai Xin was puzzled but still said, "Alright, I’ll remember that."

If Bai Xin is indeed the daughter of the Six-Path Masters, she should remember her father’s appearance, right?

Once she finds out the true visage of the Six-Path Masters, the father and daughter should be able to reunite.

Bidding farewell to everyone.

Jiang Fan stepped forward, heading alone towards the continent.

At the same time.

Suddenly, White Horse Temple radiated Buddha Light thousands-fold.

The golden light was as dazzling as the scorching sun, illuminating heaven and earth.

Buddhist chants arose, surrounding the area, bringing peace to the heart and spirit.

A multitude of Vajra ascended skyward, gathering around a giant Twelve-leaf Golden Lotus.

With hands clasped, their heads bowed in prayer, expressions sincere and respectful.

On the Twelve-leaf Golden Lotus sat a monk in a red kasaya.

With an aura of peace, solemnity, and sanctity.

His face constantly changed, sometimes male, sometimes female, sometimes compassionate, sometimes gracefully smiling.

With eyes warm yet deep, wise yet insightful.

He was none other than the Heavenly Listening Bodhisattva.

"With compassion for all beings and fierce anger to eradicate evil."

"Master Jiang is truly the reincarnation of Buddha Son."

He listened to the sound of heaven and earth, taking in the conversation between Jiang Fan and Princess Zi Jiang completely.

"It is time to welcome him into Buddhism!"

He slowly raised his palm.

In his palm was a Jade Box, inside lay a wisp of ash from Wish Paper.

The ash pointed directly north.

"Buddha Son wishes to go south to the sea, we will head north to greet him!"

The voice of Heavenly Listening Bodhisattva was magnetic and slow.

Upon his words, he along with the Golden Lotus beneath him and the surrounding Protective Vajra simultaneously disappeared in instantaneous movement.

Jiang Fan was yet unaware that the entirety of White Horse Temple had set out to convert him.

However, he remained vigilant.

No direct southern passage was made, bypassing White Horse Temple en route to the sea.

Instead, he planned to detour through the Great Yin Sect territory on the continent’s far west side, stepping into the Vast Sea.

However, just as he was preparing to take action.

A faint scent of alchemy wafted by.

Jiang Fan instantly became alert, knowing many were after him now.

He quickly took out a thin slice given by Jiuxiang Village Chief, placing it in his mouth, immediately his sense of smell heightened a hundredfold.

He instantly identified the source of the scent.

It was somewhere near the Connecting Sky Black Pillar, hiding three individuals with varying concentrations of alchemy scent.

Moreover, he was quite familiar with this aura.

It was indeed Vice Palace Master You of Dan State and her pair of young disciples.

"Why haven’t they left yet?" Jiang Fan was shocked.

It’s been half a month since they came to Taicang State.

And why are they hiding sneakily?

At a glance, Jiang Fan roughly guessed, could they be thinking his alchemy talent was exceptional and wanted to secretly capture him back to Dan State?

If not for this, there would be no way to explain the strange actions of their master-apprentice trio.

Jiang Fan instinctively intended to use Cloud Shadow to escape.

But upon reconsideration.

There was the Bodhisattva planning to convert him, the Two-star Giant King ready to come out and slay him at any moment.

And he currently had no Venerate beside him to protect him.

Why not go with the flow and pretend to be captured by Vice Palace Master You?

When either the Bodhisattva or the Two-star Giant King arrives, Vice Palace Master You would naturally have to deal with them.

Thinking of this, he feigned ignorance of Vice Palace Master You’s presence.

Leapt boldly towards their direction, murmuring to himself, "From this direction, the continent is closer."

Vice Palace Master You was holding a Black Tripod, watching Jiang Fan run straight towards her without deviating.

She couldn’t help but be stunned, "Such coincidence?"

The two disciples anxiously said, "Master, what are you waiting for? Quickly capture him!"

They had been following Jiang Fan all the way, long since fed up.

Vice Palace Master You, in a flurry, hurriedly activated the Black Tripod, saying, "It’s too late!"

"I never expected him to run towards me!"

In her haste, she only managed to raise the Black Tripod into the air, without time to activate its Absorption Power on Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan, however, dove headfirst into the Black Tripod.

Still murmuring, "Ah! Such powerful Absorption Power!"

"Who is plotting against me?"

Eh?

Vice Palace Master You blinked, perplexedly looking at her half-formed hand seals?

"I, I didn’t activate it!"
