The grand voice of The Buddha arose: "What is the sche of Yin Yang? And what can Buddhism gain from it?"
Bai Ze Demon Saint pondered for a mont, then shaking his folded fan with a serious tone, said: "I wish to leverage the power of the Human King to establish a Human World Demon Country."
The Buddha was inwardly moved, and imdiately asked: "What is this Human World Demon Country?"
"Coexistence of humans and demons, with human faces but demon hearts, can make up the Human World Demon Country.
It requires the fusion of Human Clan’s Destiny and Demon Clan’s Qi Fortune, only then can the Human World Demon Country be established. Once the Demon Country is ford, the Demon Clan will be imperishable."
The Bai Ze Demon Saint emphasized: "Regarding the Human King, we have already made plans and we will surely gain the support of the Human King.
The only concern now is the Hundred Schools of the Human Clan; we ask for Buddhism to intervene and disturb the Hundred Schools, to assist the strength of our Demon Clan."
The Buddha too felt a ripple in his heart. If they could obtain the support of the Human King and divide the Human Clan’s Destiny to establish a Half-demon, Half-human Human World Demon Country, it was not impossible.
Truly, these ancient Great Powers never ant any good. The plan to establish a Human World Demon Country was perhaps conceived as far back as the era of the Hundred Schools competing, with a depth of sche that sent shivers down the spine.
The Buddha spoke calmly: "What benefit is there for Buddhism?"
Bai Ze gently waved his feather fan and said tenderly: "I’m aware that Buddhism has plans to spread to Nan Zhanbu Continent and East Victory Divine Continent, but has always been hindered by the Taoist School.
Once the Eastern Human World Demon Country is established, combining the destinies of human and demon clans in one, and flourishing Qi Fortune, it may at tis even surpass the destiny of the Eastern Land’s Human Clan.
I can promise The Buddha to allow Buddhism to spread teachings within the Human World Demon Country, and even to establish Buddhism as the national religion. This will serve as a stepping stone to enter East Victory Divine Continent and Nan Zhanbu Continent. What do you think, Buddha?"
The Buddha pondered, and his grand voice echoed: "Where will this Human World Demon Country be located?"
Bai Ze smiled and replied: "In the East Sea."
The Buddha gave a slight nod and said: "Agreed!"
Bai Ze Demon Saint clasped his hands and chuckled: "Thank you, Buddha!"
"The Demon Saint had already anticipated this outco. Even without the help of Buddhism, the Demon Country would certainly be established."
Bai Ze shook his head and said: "While there are many Saints among the Hundred Schools, now our Yin Yang School covertly serves the Human King and has gained his favor. But to divide the destiny of the Human Clan and establish a Demon Country, one cannot escape the discerning eyes of the Hundred Schools of Saints, unless we can disrupt their focus and cause temporary chaos among them. Then, our Yin Yang School can plan amidst the disorder."
The Buddha pondered again and said: "How confident are you that you can succeed?"
Bai Ze Demon Saint boasted confidently: "This sche has been in progress for tens of thousands of years and is carried out personally by our Demon Clan’s Devil Master.
The current leader of the Yin Yang School is Lu Ya Crown Prince’s reincarnation, nad Donghuang Taiyi."
"If you are so certain of success, I will lend you a helping hand. The Zen School will soon provoke disputes among the Hundred Schools."
Bai Ze Demon Saint stood up and bowed, smilingly saying: "Thank you, Buddha!"
The Buddha gave a slight nod.
Bai Ze Demon Saint rose and took out a White Bone Pen, casually drawing a door in front of him, and pushed the door open. On the other side were towering mountains from where Demon Qi spiraled up, with a series of palaces nestled upon the mountain ranges.
Stepping through the door, Bai Ze Demon Saint instantly traversed space-ti, appearing before the palace.
In the Great Leiyin Temple, the doors marked with dark ink gradually spread out, rging into the void and disappearing.
In the open Great Leiyin Temple, The Buddha ditated for a mont before calling out: "Jin Chanzi~"
A flash of Jing Guang streaked in front of the Great Leiyin Temple, transforming into a disheveled little monk, his eyes brimming with cold pride.
Jin Chanzi stepped into the Great Leiyin Temple and approached the main hall. Looking up at the Buddha seated above, a trace of fear flickered through his eyes as he respectfully greeted with palms together: "Disciple pays his respects to the Master!"
The grand and solemn voice of The Buddha resonated: "Jin Chanzi, go to the Qin Dynasty in Nan Zhanbu Continent, command the Zen School to instigate internal warfare among the Hundred Schools."
A gleam of blood shined in Jin Chanzi’s eyes, the corner of his mouth curling into a faint smile as he said in a low voice: "Master, may I take action?"
The Buddha calmly responded: "I bestow upon you the Buddha Disk, absolving you from the sin of killing."
Jin Chanzi bowed excitedly and said: "Thank you, Master!" He imdiately turned around, ran outside, and vanished as a streak of golden light.
...
The Qin Dynasty Imperial City of Xianyang was filled with towering buildings stacked neatly against each other. Even at night, it bustled with bright lights and an endless stream of people in the night market, resembling a city that never sleeps.
A towering structure stood out in the darkness, with a distinguished middle-aged man at the highest level of the tower. He wore a tall hat and was cloaked in a purple cape adorned with golden cloud patterns, exuding extre opulence.
The man stood by the railing, looking down upon the entire Xianyang, with a slightly portly elder respectfully standing behind him with a bowed back.
The imposing man reflected, "The Human Clan may be weak, but they have created a prosperous civilization. They are truly the rightful eternal protagonists."
The portly elder behind him stood respectfully, silent.
"Xu Fu, prepare yourself! When the Hundred Schools fall into chaos, it will be your ti to enter the palace. This plot must succeed, failure is not an option. The future of our Yin Yang School is in your hands."
The portly elder respectfully replied, "Yes! Your disciple will not fail your mission." He retreated from the tower top and quickly left.
...
Half a year later, a sudden drought struck the southern region of Half You County in the Qin Dynasty, leaving miles of scorched earth. A wind blew, bringing a cloud of dust, with rivers dried up, the earth cracked, and trees withered.
One by one, the citizens sat lethargically in the shade of the walls, their expressions blank.
An old man dressed in official robes walked through the city, followed by a group of officials.
The elder looked up at the blazing Great Sun and frowned deeply, "Why does the sun here feel unusually scorching?"
An official behind him panted, "Pri Minister, with scarce water sources for thousands of miles, it is naturally hotter."
The Pri Minister looked up at the searing sun and murmured, "How could this drought occur out of nowhere? And with the sun so intensely hot, could this really be a natural disaster?"
An official wiped sweat from his forehead and said, "Pri Minister, please think of a solution quickly, our relief food and water supplies are running low."
The Pri Minister said calmly, "Just bring in more. No matter what, we must withstand this drought."
An official hesitated before saying, "Pri Minister, the morial I submitted for relief has already been presented, but it was rejected."
The Pri Minister’s expression turned cold as he demanded, "Who rejected it?"
"Ting Weisi!"
The Pri Minister’s expression shifted and he asked, "What did the Legalist Li Si say?"
The official bowed and said in a low voice, "Ting Weisi stated that everything in the state follows the law, which must be adhered to, even in disaster relief. Endless allocation of funds and provisions is unacceptable."
The Pri Minister imdiately cried out in anger, "Absurd! Facing disaster across an entire county, how can we still cling to those lifeless laws?!"
"Amitabha Buddha~" A Buddhist chant suddenly sounded.
A plump monk stepped forward, hands together in prayer, with a compassionate expression on his face.
Everyone turned their attention to the plump monk.
The monk approached, hands together in prayer as he bowed, "Zen disciple Fa Wu pays his respects to the Pri Minister."
The Pri Minister asked, "Zen disciple, what brings you here?"
Fa Wu, full of compassion, said, "The South suffers from severe drought, and the people are struggling to survive. The Zen School harbors a heart of compassion, feeling empathy, thus I have co to see if there’s any way I could help."
The Pri Minister bluntly said, "If you wish to help, providing so funds and provisions would be best. There’s no need for affected airs here."
Fa Wu gave an embarrassed smile and said, "Our Zen School is a place of asceticism, and we don’t have much in terms of funds and provisions. However, I do have a good idea."
The Pri Minister looked at Fa Wu disdainfully, then said, "What good idea could you possibly have?"
Fa Wu spoke earnestly, "Pri Minister, I can make the relief funds and provisions multiply several tis over."
The Pri Minister eagerly asked, "How so? Speak quickly!"
Fa Wu looked around and said in a low voice, "Pri Minister, the food distributed by Xianyang is of the highest quality. Why not approach the Mixed School to exchange this food for chaff and bran, which could magically increase the provisions tenfold."
