Master Jiekong pressed his palms together, his eyes calm and unmoved. "All the myriad Dharma Forms are merely forms of the self! Benefactor Tantai, you... have fallen into Attachment to Form."
"I am a Devil to begin with. How could Attachment to Form apply to me? Rather, what about you? Are you truly determined to go your own way, betray the Devil Race, and return to the Buddhist Sect?"
Tantai Zhi gave a contemptuous smile, reining in her demonic and bewitching arts as killing intent flashed through her eyes.
Master Jiekong said calmly, "This poor monk already gave the Demon Dragon a clear answer to that question. I have been a member of the Buddhist Sect from beginning to end."
"What a fine member of the Buddhist Sect. If I remember correctly, a Buddha... should hold compassion in his heart! Back when you entered the Devil path and joined my Buddhist Sect, you slaughtered countless living beings. A Buddha like you—do you truly possess a compassionate heart?" ????
Tantai Zhi rolled her eyes. She did not rush to attack. When she spoke again, however, her words were razor-sharp, directly striking at Master Jiekong's Buddhist heart.
Master Jiekong's expression remained calm. "This poor monk has Prajna in his heart, so naturally he must wield the Wisdom Sword."
Tantai Zhi continued pressing him. "Wield the sword and begin slaughtering? If someone like you can also become a Buddha, then what difference is there between the Buddhist Sect you speak of and us Demon Lords?"
"The Buddha said: 'If I do not enter hell, who will?' The Buddha leaves behind compassion, while the sword ferries all living beings across. If the path of slaughter can save the common people of this world, this poor monk is willing to enter the Avici Hell."
