Chapter 694 - 688: The Buddha’s Scheme
As everyone knows, whoever raises a problem must solve it.
The proposal to join forces against Yin Celestial Son was made by you, Buddha.
Therefore, the plan to deal with Yin Celestial Son naturally must also be proposed by Buddha.
Wa Huang kicked the ball back to Buddha once more.
Because Wa Huang predicted that Buddha also didn’t have a good solution.
How to deal with Yin Celestial Son?
This is actually a deadlock.
Back then, the Four Great Primordial Spirits were defeated by the last Human King, Di Xin. Under Di Xin’s compulsion, they vowed not to descend into the world personally.
This led to one problem: as long as Yin Celestial Son doesn’t leave the world, they can’t do anything to him.
Dealing with Yin Celestial Son?
Is it that easy?
If there were truly a way to deal with Yin Celestial Son, they could have directly intervened to disrupt his path when he sought enlightenment, couldn’t they?
If a method existed, why wait until now?
Wa Huang looked intently at Buddha, the meaning in her gaze was obvious: "Speak up?"
"Buddha, go ahead and talk about your method against Yin Celestial Son! I want to see if you can provide a concrete plan."
Buddha remained silent for a long time, because, at this moment, he couldn’t produce a feasible plan.
Buddha’s primary goal this time was to form an alliance against Yin Celestial Son and not give Wa Huang the chance to sit back and watch the fight from a distance.
As for how to deal with Yin Celestial Son, Buddha thought to plan long-term and wait for an opportunity to catch him off-guard.
Once Yin Celestial Son shows a flaw, it would be the perfect time to strike.
Wa Huang’s questioning, and Buddha’s lack of response for a while, made Demon Lord anxious.
Demon Lord thought, why aren’t you speaking? Could it be that Wa Huang has stumped you, Buddha?
If you can’t answer such a simple question, why did I come with you? Did I come to lose face with you?
At this moment, Demon Lord’s gaze also fell on Buddha.
Feeling the dual gazes of Demon Lord and Wa Huang, Buddha was starting to sweat.
"My suggestion is that we join forces to first eliminate the Void Race!"
"In any case, we can’t allow Yin Celestial Son’s influence to reach the void."
"Since Yin Celestial Son has already allied with the Void Race, we should cut off his wings first!" Buddha didn’t have a good way to deal with Yin Celestial Son, so he first proposed the solution of eliminating the troublesome Void Race.
Demon Lord was quite enthusiastic about getting rid of the Void Race: "Yes, obliterate the Void Race!"
"We cannot have traitors in the void."
However, Wa Huang did not respond.
Wa Huang was carefully weighing the pros and cons of exterminating the Void Race.
The Void Race are also natives of the void, and exterminating them has both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage of exterminating the Void Race is that it cuts off the hand Yin Celestial Son has stretched into the void.
Without the Void Race acting as Yin Celestial Son’s eyes and ears, it would be much harder for him to get information about the void.
Everything has its pros and cons.
So, exterminating the Void Race naturally has its downsides too.
Karma.
Everything, with cause comes consequence.
Karma exists not only in the world but also in the void.
The name Void Race already indicates they are natives of the void.
The Void Race was born in the void, grew in the void; the void nurtured this race.
Wa Huang, Buddha, and Demon Lord usually hunt the Void Race to help their disciples improve their strength, and that’s that.
After all, they didn’t exterminate the Void Race, giving them a chance to reproduce and survive.
However, if they were to completely annihilate the Void Race, they would be setting themselves against a major karmic bond with the void.
In fact, Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha all understood this point well, which is why all these years, they’ve never eradicated the Void Race entirely.
Wa Huang felt that Buddha wasn’t a fool; why would he suggest exterminating the Void Race at this time?
"Exterminate the Void Race?"
"Easier said than done, who will bear the enormous karmic consequences if we truly annihilate the Void Race?" Wa Huang asked the most crucial question.
In the eyes of Wa Huang, Buddha, and Demon Lord, the Void Race is just a bunch of weaklings.
These weaklings can be wiped out.
Exterminating them could be done readily; it’s not difficult.
Even with Yin Celestial Son as their backing, exterminating the Void Race isn’t challenging.
After all, Yin Celestial Son wouldn’t go to the void for the sake of the Void Race.
Without Yin Celestial Son’s personal intervention, the help he could provide to the Void Race is limited.
It’s not hard to exterminate the Void Race; the difficult part is, who will bear this karma?
If Buddha is willing to shoulder this karma, Wa Huang would definitely support the total annihilation of the Void Race.
Of course, Wa Huang also knows that Buddha would certainly not take on this karma voluntarily.
Wa Huang wants to go further, and Buddha also wishes to progress further.
For them, who desire greater power, even slight karmic consequences can become obstacles on their path to strength.
After Wa Huang asked this question, Demon Lord once again looked at Buddha,
It was clear that Demon Lord also didn’t want to take on this karma.
Buddha thought, why are you all looking at me?
Do you truly think I’m a fool? Would I take on this karma and accept the blame?
However, since Buddha made this proposal, he naturally had his own strategy.
Buddha looked at Demon Lord and Wa Huang with a faint smile and revealed his plan: "The three of us need only to focus on obstructing Yin Celestial Son."
"I believe if we three take action together, Yin Celestial Son won’t be able to help them in the slightest."
"Then, let our disciples from all three factions combine forces. Let our disciples jointly exterminate the Void Race."
"With our disciples uniting, eliminating the Void Race should not be difficult. The karma will be collectively borne by the countless disciples."
"The actual karma that will fall upon us is minimal."
Demon Lord: "?????"
Wa Huang: "?????"
Upon hearing Buddha’s proposal, Demon Lord and Wa Huang couldn’t help but look at each other, inwardly cursing Buddha as a conniver.
Demon Lord and Wa Huang are not fools and naturally understood Buddha’s intention.
Buddha’s disciples had suffered heavy casualties, now only a few scattered ones remained.
His disciples were almost entirely wiped out, so using them to bear the karma was a kind of waste utilization.
But, Wa Huang and Demon Lord were different!
Under Wa Huang and Demon Lord’s command were large numbers of disciples. If these disciples were to bear the karma of exterminating the Void Race,
they might be rejected by the Void Law, making it exceedingly difficult for them to enhance their powers in the future!
This time, Wa Huang and Demon Lord, who usually disagreed, surprisingly reached a consensus.
Buddha, this accursed, was clearly plotting against the two of them.
Buddha’s disciples were already gone, and he wanted their disciples to also suffer heavy losses.
Especially Wa Huang, disciples at Wa Huang’s Palace were the most numerous now.
If things were done this way, the greatest loss would indeed be Wa Huang’s.
