Chapter 95: What is Fiend Cultivation! Seize the Karma! (VI)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Fo Zi didn’t dodge Yun Xiang’s attack. She pulled back immediately, yet still ripped a piece of b.l.o.o.d.y flesh from Fo Zi’s chest.
Fo Zi was still wearing a cold face, with one hand clutching the bead while the other pointing at the ma.s.sive pyramid of death. He yelled, “This is what most Fiend Cultivators would do! And we only saw one of the villages. You know what? There is no one alive within 30 miles of this place! You cannot see it, but I can! Fiend Cultivation has made monstrous crime that even G.o.d couldn’t forgive! Yun Xiang, you’ve never killed anyone because your master has set such a good example for you, but that doesn’t apply to all the Fiend Cultivators. Among all of you, Fiend Exalt Mo Qianqiu is the most hideous devil.”
Yun Xiang’s eyes sparkled with unshed tears, but she didn’t attack Fo Zi anymore. She just kept saying, “I don’t know Fiend Cultivators would act like that. But… I can’t allow you to disrespect my master.”
Fo Zi said, “Amitabha, you become obsessive again.”
Yun Xiang raised her head abruptly and said seriously, “But you have no idea what my master has done to make up the crime he has committed. Do you know why demons haven’t invaded the thirty-six states for centuries? Do you know what we’ve sacrificed since our Fiend Palace erects on the border between men and demons? My master reached the late stage of Da Sheng Period over a thousand years ago, even if he only gets a handful of good years left, he is still…”
“Enough!” Mo Qiu interrupted Yun Xiang coldly while this girl in black looked at him in astonishment.
Mo Qiu stepped forward and looked at Fo Zi, “Yes, the Fiend Exalt is a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, but Fo Zi Yu Chen, you shouldn’t stubbornly argue who is right with Yun Xiang, as everyone knows that you are always right while she is wrong. You can kill the Fiend Exalt if you hate him so much. But if you can’t, then don’t argue about the nonsense here. Don’t you want to kill that Fiend Exalt who has killed hundreds of thousands of people?
Hearing their argument, Luo Jianqing was somehow a little bit depressed.
He recalled what Mo Qiu had told him long ago. At that time, they were still in Liu Yan Valley. Mo Qiu told him that less than ten Fiend Cultivators had never killed any people. One percent of Fiend Cultivators only killed people who deserved nothing but death. As for other Fiend Cultivators, they all killed at random.
But after all, “the weak will stand as an easy prey to the strong” was the law of nature.
Since this was the law of nature, everyone would abide by it.
The Fiend Exalt could kill and be killed. But no one could kill him now, so he could continue to kill others.
Then he was undefeatable?
Of course not.
Luo Jianqing knew what Yun Xiang wanted to say. It was said that the Fiend Exalt had reached the late stage of Da Sheng Period over one thousand years ago, but up to now, he was still in that stage as the law of nature restrained his development. Although he hadn’t killed the innocent for thousands of years, he still had to make up for his crime.
Now, maybe he was really about to die.
Any cultivator could only stay in Da Sheng Period for three thousand years, or he would die… Many he had stayed in this period long enough.
With low-grade Spiritual Bone, the Fiend Exalt joined the Fiend Cultivation to become the supreme one. He had killed millions of innocent people, that was his Cause. He permanently lost the chance to finish the Da Sheng Period and had to guard the border for men for his life, that was the Consequence he should bear.
Besides, Xuan Lingzi once told Luo Jianqing, “The Fiend Exalt has to spend a life to make up for each person he killed. After he dies, he can only enter the next round of life as an animal until he has made atonement for all of them one by one. The number of the rounds depends on how many people he has killed.”
At that time, Luo Jianqing had asked how to make atonement for them.
Xuan Lingzi pointed at a village three miles away from Tai Hua Mountain, where a famer was working in the fields. He said, “If the Fiend Exalt enters the next life as this cattle, and the one killed him will reincarnate as the farmer, then the Fiend Exalt has to be whipped by this famer for its whole life; he has to plow day and night for the farmer; when he is old and unable to plow, he will be killed by this famer and sold. Jianqing, this is his karma.” Suddenly, Luo Jianqing was enlightened.
Nihility power squirted out below his navel, swallowing the spiritual power around.
Mo Qiu and other two men had originally been planning how to find the Fiend Exalt. But now, Luo Jianqing was about to enter the next period, so Mo Qiu flicked his sleeves and set a ward to protect him, and Fo Zi set another one. They sat down with legs crossed and protected Luo Jianqing.
Luo Jianqing knew nothing of these.
That nihility power crossed mountains and oceans, pa.s.sed the rivers in Cen State. It saw the ma.s.sive pyramid of death described by Fo Zi and strands of Karma threads interspersing in nature!
Boom!
Continuous loud sounds rang in Luo Jianqing’s mind.
“What’s Cause and what’s Consequence?”
“When your Cause is acc.u.mulated to a certain amount, the Consequence will come!”
“If the nature is wrong, if the nature is injustice, then how can it judge, how can it bring the karma!
“Nine Heavenly Seizure Record! The Fourth Seizure – Seize the Karma!”
Luo Jianqing was overwhelmed by the karmas he had seen in this world. This was the first time for him to see the karma threads so clearly. Each person in Cen state carried with countless threads.
If you handed out someone a plate of porridge, then he owed you a favor. If someday you became poor and hungry, he would also hand out a steamed bread to you.
If you ignored someone’s cry for help, then you owed him a favor. If someday you were sentenced to death, he would be the one who executed you.
A beautiful lady encouraged a young man with a smile, then she was married to him who was talented and hardworking.
An old couple accompanied each other for the whole life due to their promise in childhood.
Luo Jianqing enjoyed all these marvelous karmas until he saw the ma.s.sive pyramid of death, and then a noise came to his mind. Just as he was about to take back the spiritual awareness, he suddenly saw a thin, short old man in black.
Luo Jianqing opened his eyes, “I saw it!”
Mo Qiu stood up immediately and asked, “Saw that?”
Luo Jianqing’s eyes went gloomy and he replied coldly, “I saw the Fiend Exalt that had killed one hundred thousand people.”
