Feng Heng was used to his master always mysteriously disappearing, so he figured out that it had something to do with how he kept his Primordial Spirit in good shape.
Most of the time he was not worried about his master given his strength and ability to hide himself, however, things are different now. They were currently in a tournament which was being watched by trillions of people all over the world, so the chances of being caught are very high.
"You do not need to worry about me as I was doing something very important this time, and I took the necessary precaution," replied Shi Fuyu.
"Important? Master, can you tell me about it?" asked Feng Heng with a little excitement in his voice. Since even his master said it was important, then it must be truly Heaven-defying.
Shi Fuyu nodded, then waved his hand to enforce the Arrays that were set in this house; he had to make sure that there was no hidden array left by the Academy to spy on the Seeded-Players' Housing Area.
"I finally found a way for you to completely inherit the Yin-Yang Eyes without having any defect."
"Master, really?"
"Of course."
Feng Heng suddenly got up from his futon, then took out a sealed body from his space ring: it was a five year old child with two empty sockets for eyes. He looked at the child on the ground with coldness and indifference.
"So master, what do we need to do?"
Shi Fuyu looked at the body, and he was also calm. However, his calmness was not cold or indifferent, but more like a serene or peaceful one. In fact, there was still some pity or compassion deep in his eyes.
"I will enter your Sea of Consciousness in order to guide you. However, be warned, the process will be very painful--even more painful than when we did the first transplantation or when you went through Heavenly Tribulation."
Feng Heng nodded without much care for his master's words. As a cultivator, if he could not withstand a little pain, then he does not deserve to be one of the powerful Heaven Chosens of this generation.
So, Feng Heng took a deep breath, sat cross-legged in his futon, then meditated for a few minutes. Then, he opened his bright eyes.
"Ready?" asked Shi Fuyu.
Feng Heng nodded calmly then paused briefly. "Master, I am very thankful for all the things you did for me. So, when I manage to prove the Dao and become a Great Emperor, I promise to find a way to completely revive you and build a powerful fleshly body for you with all the best Emperor Tier Materials that I can find."
Shi Fuyu sighed before nodding: "Feng'er, one of the thing I like most about you is the fact that you are the kind of person that always repay his kindness, so I do not doubt your words in the slightest.
"Alright, this is not the time to get sentimental. Let's get started."
After saying that, Shi Fuyu turned into countless motes of light and entered Feng Heng's Sea of Consciousness through his eyebrow. He found himself floating in a dark space with a bronze cloud floating inside: this was Feng Heng' soul.
Since Taoism also focused on cultivating the soul, his soul was bronze instead of white like most other people.
"Feng'er, are you ready?" asked Shi Fuyu a second time.
"Yes, master," responded the floating cloud.
Then, Shi Fuyu took out a yellow paper with countless red strange writing on them; the writing looked like graffiti made by children randomly drawing on a wall.
The truth of the matter is that those weird graffities are actually divine runes inscribed to make the Devouring Talisman. The reason that the writing was in red was due to the fact that it was written with Mo Xingyun's blood.
After taking out the talisman, Shi Fuyu used his soul power to activate it, then launched it into Feng Heng's soul. Before he could even react or even scream, his soul was completely absorbed.
After seeing this, Shi Fuyu muttered to himself: "I am sorry, Feng'er. I cannot change my plans for so many Eras because of my affection for you."
Knowing that he had a short window of time to act, Shi Fuyu went into action. He quickly absorbed Feng Heng' soul, thus gaining all his knowledge and memories--even the ones that had powerful seals on them placed by the Taiyi Profound Gate.
Then, Shi Fuyu abandoned his Primordial Spirit, his cultivation along with all his comprehended Laws or Dao; he fully became Feng Heng from now on. Of course he did not discard these precious things, but left them sealed inside his Sea of Consciousness.
Anyway, he still has all his memories and comprehension, he just could not use the power of the Supreme Realm anymore. The reason he went to all this trouble was because of Feng Heng' identity as the Dao Child of the Taiyi Profound Gate.
After everything was over, Feng Heng's body opened his eyes. However, they were different. The youthful vigor was replaced by an ancientness that was hard to imagine by any other cultivator.
"From now on, Shi Fuyu is dead, I am Feng Heng," muttered Shi Fuyu, not Feng Heng.
After Feng Heng took a few hours to properly control his new body, he proceeded to execute the next part of his plan.
He took out the talisman that was still usable, looked at it for a moment before muttering: "With this talisman, I can completely become Feng Heng. Even if the Taiyi Profound Gate suspects something and checks my soul, they will discover that I am still Feng Heng. Now, it is time for the second part."
Feng Heng then placed the talisman in front of the five year old child, then he absorbed his body.
Soon afterwards, Feng Heng's eyes turned into the Yin-Yang Symbol: one was black with a little white inside, while the other was black with a little white inside.
It did not take Feng Heng that long to actually absorb the entire physique; as a matter of fact, the process was extremely quick.
Immediately afterwards, Feng Heng then raised his right hand: a powerful golden light manifested followed by Buddha chants echoing in the room. The light and chant seemed to have the ability to wash away the worry of anyone who hears them.
After seeing this, Feng Heng started laughing out loud; his laugh contained a hint of madness, sadness, and relief at the same time.
"I finally succeeded. Damn you Absolute Beginning Emperor. You thought that you could totally eradicate my Buddhism from the Lower Dimension, but you were wrong. Today, after countless Eras of planning, I have finally found a loophole to the magic you place here.
"With the Yin-Yang Eyes, I can finally cultivate the [Absolute Beginning Dao Arts] that you created to the highest level. Then, I will create a new philosophy that combines both Taoism and Buddhism in order to bypass the Absolute Beginning Magic that prevents the rise of my Buddhism in all Worlds across all World Community.
"That way, my new sect of Buddhism will be tied up with Taoism. So, if something happened to it, then the Qi Luck or Destiny of the entire Taoism will also be affected, and may even be ruined.
"Hahahaaha, even if you are an Eternal Emperor, you cannot stop the rise of Buddhism anymore--unless you want to see the destruction of the Taoist Sect. Hahahaha."
Feng Heng spent hours laughing out loud like a maniac without stopping; this process was very cathartic for him.
However, if anyone knew the story of Shi Fuyu, no one would blame him for doing so. This man had suffered for so many years, planned for countless Eras before he could actually come up with a feasible plan that would actually work.
After finally regaining his bearing, Feng Heng sighed while reminiscing about his past, and all the things that he went through.
After experiencing the complete annihilation of Buddhism in the Incense Era, he was always on the verge of madness.
As a matter of fact, the annihilation of Buddhism was even more thorough than the Devil Race. Empress Wu was exiled during her confrontation with the Nine Devil God World, but the Absolute Beginning Emperor only suffered injury during his battle in the Western Pure Bliss Land.
After he recovered, he went on a warpath against all the Buddhist Sects scattered in all different World Communities. He did not care whether some of these sects or factions did not absorb the power of Faith, he eradicated all of them.
On top of that, he used a powerful divine ability that cut off the Origin or Beginning of Buddhism--thus preventing them from ever rising again in any world in the Endless Void. It was similar to how Empress Wu sealed the Devil Race's Destiny or Qi Luck to prevent them from rising again.
But the Absolute Beginning Emperor was more thorough. Without a beginning, it was as if Buddhism never existed in this world.
