The rolling wheels of the chess game of Heaven and Earth, after much grinding, continue forth, with the successive fall of the Boat Monk, Treasure Tree Heavenly King, and Zhiming Monk, followed by the God of Suffering also falling and dispersing Dao.
The Heavenly God sought death only to break the Mistaken Dreams of the Star Covering offspring, a price that cannot be said to be anything less than tragic.
"Amitabha, Infinite Venerable."
Zhao Wuya, being both a Taoist and Zen Master, uttered the Buddha's name and then made a Taoist salute, showing respect for the God of Suffering.
Zhou Xuan sighed sadly, recalling many scenes of interaction with the God of Suffering. That ball of fire was brought into the world by him, grew stronger because of him, and now was sadly extinguished while protecting Mingjiang Prefecture,
The aggregation of many fates caused Zhou Xuan to feel a complicated mix of melancholic emotions in his heart.
The fall of the God of Suffering made Zhou Xuan sigh, but what also made him sigh was the true identity of "Bai Guang."
He never expected that Bai Guang, the singer he and Gu Ling helped to fame, was actually the Alien Ghost Covering Star that escaped the eye of the incense fire Taoist.
"Bai Guang, Bai Guang, I only knew your singing voice was pretty, but I did not expect your acting skill to surpass your singing by so much."
Zhou Xuan's sigh fell into the ears of Mo Ya Monk, who coldly laughed and said, "These numerous big or small matters of Mingjiang Prefecture all escape from the eyes and calculations of Mr. Zhou, yet you unexpectedly stumble tremendously on Bai Guang."
Given a Yin Yang Strange Qi remark, Zhou Xuan merely shook his head indifferently and unassumingly, sat back in front of the Puduan, held a white piece, and said, "Mo Ya Monk, there is a classic phrase in Taoism: 'The Doctrine of the Great 50, Heaven's evolution is 49, and humans elude one,'
The explanation for this classic has many schools, and to this day it has not reached a unified conclusion. However, the most mainstream explanation is that there are a total of fifty avenues in the world, but Heaven and Earth only evolve into forty-nine, leaving the one as the avenue of change and vitality for humans,
Summing it up, it's that the countless things in this world, regardless of how much deduced or how detailed observed, are merely forty-nine of the fifty avenues, and the final little bit of change is always there."
Zhou Xuan calmly placed the piece, staring at Mo Ya Monk, saying, "That bit of change transcends the evolution of heaven and earth, probably even Supreme Will can't calculate it accurately, let alone me, a mere mortal?"
"I didn't foresee Bai Guang being the Star Covering, but similarly, none of you foresaw—the timid and lacking war intent God of Suffering would enter the game with humble Dao, sacrificing himself to awaken the resplendence of Heaven and Earth…"
"Ah, The Doctrine of the Great 50, Heaven's evolution is 49, humans elude one."
Mo Ya Monk gritted his teeth and savored this phrase,
From the first time he set foot in Jing Country till now, three hundred years have passed—the Incense Fire Divine Dao of Jing Country, with Taoist Xuanmen as its honor, knows the saying 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do,' during three hundred years, how could he not delve into Taoist classics?
Therefore, what he savored was not the meaning of this Taoist wisdom, but the scholarly demeanor of Zhou Xuan when speaking these words.
If Zhou Xuan, due to the fall of the God of Suffering, flamed in fury, or continuously sighed, then Mo Ya Monk would feel that this game still had a great opportunity,
Yet Zhou Xuan's sadness lasted only moments, sighs mere two or three times, as for flaring in fury? Not a single trace of anger could be seen.
"A person whose heart harbors thunder yet face remains like a calm lake can be revered as a great general… This Young Master, after controlling consecutive major events, has grown into a great master, it is difficult to discern his depth."
Mo Ya Monk sighed secretly with sorrow.
And at the end of this sigh, suddenly his eyes were brightened.
If "The Heaven's evolution is 49, people elude one," everything engineered by Seeking Wave Monk, Great Demon, Zoroastrianism, and Gong Zheng was precisely calculated as "Heaven's evolution is 49," but Zhou Xuan turned out to be that human change in "humans elude one."
"Could it be that a good game will be overturned by this Young Master single-handedly, turning the tide when it's about to collapse, supporting the tower as it's falling…"
The more he thought this way, the more Mo Ya Monk's heart fell into the abyss, unsure how deep it plunged, finally his heart stopped the sensation of falling—the Star Covering had not truly died, she remained a level above the Great Buddha, and remained the top Alien Ghost the divine beings of Mingjiang couldn't deal with,
Furthermore, Seeking Wave Monk, Great Demon, Gong Zheng, and Zoroastrianism's arrangement still had victorious backhands, those backhands absolutely had no measures for breaking the situation.
"Backhand," "Star Covering," became a pair of hands holding up Mo Ya Monk's confidence, he regained spirit, leveraging the black chess, not only blocking Zhou Xuan's "flowers blooming on a tree" chess stance, but also enabled his upper-left black pieces to become a continuous string, forming a six-hole eye well—six-hole chess well formation.
"Mr. Zhou, do not be complacent, exposing Star Covering's true form does not mean Mingjiang Prefecture can manage Star Covering—she remains the strongest Alien Ghost currently in the game; you stopped the Zoroastrian Fire Order, yet the boundless Zoroastrian fire is still burning within Mingjiang Prefecture, earlier the situation in Mingjiang was like fire burning the brows, now, you've just extinguished the fire between the brows,
Mingjiang Prefecture is still tentatively baking under the blazing furnace."
"Look, Demon Monk, you always tend to forget, the rule that the one who manipulates the chess is both inside and outside the game."
Zhou Xuan turned his head towards Zhao Wuya, saying, "Master Wu Ya, from where did you arrive at Gangfeng Cave?"
"From the raging fire in East Market Street."
"When you came, why did the fire at East Market Street cease?"
"Because it, Wu Ya Stone, within Wu Ya Stone, there is autumn wind, spring rain, there is grass growing, able to extinguish the descending Zoroastrian fire from the sea of death, however, earlier Mingjiang Prefecture had six clusters of Mistaken Dreams fog, I do not know the depth within the fog, if I rashly cast Wu Ya Stone out, and if there is a high hand inside the fog striking and shattering the stone, then the apparent Zoroastrian fire would have no restraint."
