"Together with Heaven?"
Repeating these words, Yan Zhaoge could not help but smile, "From the looks of it, it should be the same for the Emperor experts of the Immortal Court's lineage. They should be able to share in the offerings of the power of faith, and even more than you."
"Is an Exalted Martial Saint like you the lowest standard to enjoy the honor of being one with the heavens?"
The expression of the Vast Yang Exalt Pei Hua had already regained its calm.
Under the golden sunlight, his face seemed to be covered with a thin veil.
Pei Hua slowly said, "Did you deduce all of this just now?"
Yan Zhaoge spread his hands apart, "I only learned about the existence of your Immortal Court in the past two days. Although I had interacted with Buddhism before, my understanding of it was limited."
"Speaking of which, I was just about to ask if the Buddhist sects are the same as you in this aspect?"
While Buddhism had already existed before the Great Calamity and Yan Zhaoge also knew what the scriptures of the Future Buddha were, his knowledge of the specifics was comparatively limited.
Pei Hua declined to comment as he looked quietly at Yan Zhaoge, "You already know a lot."
Yan Zhaoge curled his lips, "As I see it, you also know a lot."
He looked towards the place where Yang Chong had vanished, towards the place where he had slain Shang Jun earlier, "Far, far more than Shang Jun of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm."
"You are completely different from them."
Yan Zhaoge appraised Pei Hua with a very strange gaze, "You should truly understand the difference between your Immortal Court's lineage and the orthodox Daoism's Three Clear lineage."
"Is it because of the sect's accumulation? The Great Emperor of your sect left a message, and you knew it from the beginning?"
"Or is it that when the martial practitioners of the Immortal Court ascend to the tenth level of the Martial Saint Realm, the Human Exalt Realm … Hmm, when you possess the qualifications to be 'one with the heavens', you begin to have the chance to see the truth?"
Yan Zhaoge looked rather curiously at Pei Hua.
Pei Hua's expression was indifferent. "If you want to gain something, you have to pay a price. Aren't all of you heretic disciples the same? It's just that the price we pay is different. "
"Compared to people like you who may not get anything in return for your efforts, as long as we are sincere in our pursuit of the Dao, the heavens will take care of us."
"Our rules are far fairer than yours."
Pei Hua's gaze swept across Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting, "As I see it, this is the orthodox path."
Yan Zhaoge said, "The scriptures of you and the scriptures of the Future Buddha are similarly influenced by one's innate talent."
"Although for all of you, the most important thing is to have a heart towards Buddhism and Daoism, and your innate talent and comprehension are all inferior, but the undeniable fact is that under the condition of offering incense and power of will, the higher your innate talent and comprehension, the easier it is for you to reach a higher peak."
Yan Zhaoge looked at Pei Hua, "For example, your talent surpasses that of Shang Jun and Yang Chong."
Pei Hua calmly said, "So what?"
He looked first at Yan Zhaoge and then at Fu Ting, "I can tell that the two of you are both shockingly talented, unparalleled geniuses whose auras devour the universe, geniuses amongst geniuses."
"Two mid Seeing Divinity Martial Saints were able to slay Shang Jun who was a mid Immortal Bridge Martial Saint. If it were me at the fifth level of the Martial Saint realm, I would definitely not have been able to do this."
"Generally speaking, the martial artists of the heretic path are stronger than the righteous cultivators of the Immortal Court in the same realm. And the two of you have far surpassed your peers in the heretic path."
"But …" Pei Hua slowly raised one of his palms.
"Before me now, however outstanding the two of you are, it is all useless."
Bright golden sunlight condensed on Pei Hua's palm that was incomparably dazzling, "Because my cultivation base is much higher than yours."
"I admit that I will most likely not be able to defeat the Human Exalts of your heretic path. Still, our Good has True Immortals who can subdue them."
Pei Hua's expression suddenly turned rather complex, "Meanwhile, the Emperors of your heretic path will also be taken care of by Sovereigns of my Good path."
As he said this, Pei Hua slowly pushed out with a palm.
The blazing, tough power of yang enveloped the heavens, causing Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting to feel as though their internal organs were on fire at the same time.
Yan Zhaoge inhaled deeply, his internal organs emitting light as it was as though five divinities were standing tall.
Beneath the manifestation of the Five Elements, power flowed in an endless stream as a five-coloured treasured light enveloped his entire body.
Fu Ting was surrounded by plain-coloured cloud qi as she executed the Grand Plainness Immeasurable Body of the Grand Cosmos Five Manifestations.
The plain-coloured cloud qi was unceasingly worn down by the golden sunlight, yet it would immediately be regenerated, neither increasing nor decreasing as it seemed immeasurable.
Still, this palm of Pei Hua's was even more powerful than when he had struck earlier.
Where the golden sunlight touched, Yan Zhaoge's Five Elements Deific Immortal Body and Fu Ting's Grand Plainness Immeasurable Body both showed signs of instability.
The difference in their cultivation bases was too great at the end of the day.
Beside Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting, Quan Haolong was involuntarily stunned when Yang Chong had died earlier.
Now, enveloped by the great golden sun as well, his entire body quivered as he looked disbelievingly at Pei Hua who had once been the overlord of the Loathing Square Immortal Realm in his heart.
Even if he was a martial practitioner of the Immortal Court, having been able to cultivate to the third level of the Martial Saint realm, how could he possibly be a fool?
Because he had worshipped the dao since young, he had never doubted the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord and the Immortal Court.
If Pei Hua had slain Yang Chong with a single palm, Quan Haolong would at most be sad and feel pity for him.
Yet, not a single bit of Pei Hua's power had truly landed on Yang Chong just now.
It was actually the treasured light within Yang Chong's body that had not been under his control as it had instead been controlled by Pei Hua.
As a result, Yang Chong had been forcibly transformed into a rainbow and died involuntarily!
Seeing this, Quan Haolong was rendered wide-eyed and tongue-tied as a chill coursed through his entire body.
Whatever method Pei Hua had used to kill Yang Chong, even if it had been poison or a sneak attack, Quan Haolong would not have been as panic-stricken as he was now.
Seeing Yang Chong die, however stupid Quan Haolong was, he would still associate it with himself.
His expression was both terrified and dazed as his gaze was filled with chaos.
The originally pure, bright treasured light within his body became unstable for the first time in his life as it flickered unceasingly.
As the treasured light lost its balance, Quan Haolong's true essence and aura immediately grew dim to the point where Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting could clearly sense it.
Pei Hua glanced indifferently at him, "Might as well just not leave him alive."
While the force of his palm had affected Quan Haolong, as soon as the treasured light within his body lost its balance, it immediately transformed into a rainbow.
Before dying beneath Pei Hua's palm, he had already followed in Yang Chong's footsteps!
Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly, "Such a method can only be used on martial practitioners of the Immortal Court who have already betrayed the dao. If the other party is still devout, with the treasured light remaining constant, it will be ineffective?"
While Pei Hua's palm brought about great pressure, Yan Zhaoge's expression was as usual as he even found the time to ask, "You said just now that you could cleanse Yang Chong anew. You should be able to do so for this Quan Haolong as well, right?"
Pei Hua gazed at Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting, "As compared to him, I would be more willing to cleanse the two of you."
"If peerless geniuses like you can renounce evil and return to the righteous path, your hearts towards the heavenly dao, it would be a great merit of mine."
