Buddhist Sin—the one who had stolen a Destiny Pattern—was the black mist before him.
Bifang saw through its true nature. Its Destiny Pattern was nowhere near as flourishing as Li Beiyun's.
At its core, it was a mass of sin, something not much different from Tribulation Qi.
Even after obtaining a Destiny Pattern and transforming into a living being, its Innate foundation could hardly erase every influence.
What it had stolen was the Destiny Pattern of the old Monk from before.
That man's Destiny Pattern was one of late blooming.
In his twilight years, he would undergo a true transformation rather than remain mediocre and unremarkable all his life.
Unfortunately, after encountering Buddhist Sin, even his Destiny Pattern had become distorted. Late blooming—Buddhist Sin's arrival fulfilled his long-cherished wish. Was that not another kind of method? It was simply far too twisted.
Bifang naturally did not possess the Destiny Pattern of late blooming, but he knew what changes it would normally bring in the end.
With the Great Era arriving, several people in the sect possessed such Destiny Patterns as well.
The moment they entered the sect, those above would see it clearly. Even if the Elders could not see through it, Supreme Treasures would connect with the sect's Providence.
They would suitably be given opportunities to enter cultivation peaks.
Whether a late-blooming Destiny Pattern amounted to anything still depended on whom it fell upon.
If they did not cultivate an unyielding Dao Heart, then forget about blooming late—even if they failed to achieve results in cultivation later on, quite a few would choose to leave the mountain gates and be assigned to guard certain places.
Or they might return to the Mortal World, living out their lives carefree and unrestrained. There had been no shortage of such examples.
