Chapter 97 - Faith Collapses!
Dragon Sect Stone Cave!
A handicapped, old man was carved into a lone mountain. He held a broken banner in his hand and seemed really unassuming.
At the very least, this sculpture was not comparable to the other many majestic and exquisite stone caves around.
Heaven Heart arrived here.
There were dozens of branches within High Mountain Race and this was one of them. There were very few people around here, maybe only a few hundred of them who were living in the area.
This branch was called Cloud Banner!
The Cloud Banner people worshipped the High Mountain God but they were physically different from the other High Mountain Race people.
This infuriated the old man and he hated Heaven Heart to the bone. He didn’t ask why the monk was here but just attacked him right away.
Hong!
A similar Domain appeared. In it was the supreme High Mountain God who held an artifact in his hand. He was really ferocious and attacked right away, eager to destroy Heaven Heart.
“My Buddhas are just chanting scriptures while your god wants to kill me right away. You are even worse than a demon from hell.” Heaven Heart said coldly.
“All heretics have to be killed. Killing a heretic and killing other nonbelievers is also helping the High Mountain God spread faith.” The old man was pumped up. He didn’t hide his intention to kill Heaven Heart.
At that point, Heaven Heart understood why this High Mountain Race had weakened to such an extent.
As long as a person didn’t believe in the High Mountain God, they were a heretic.
Heretics needed to be judged and removed. It would be a miracle if such a race could become powerful.
Hong!
In the Domain, the High Mountain God held an artifact, a giant banner. As he waved it, it gave off a terrifying, sinister aura. There were an endless number of skulls inside that wanted to swallow Heaven Heart up and strengthen themselves.
Was this the High Mountain God?
The god that the whole High Mountain Race worshipped?
As expected, gods are only able to guide. They are not be totally worshipped and trusted in, otherwise, one might easily lose themselves. Heaven Heart sighed in his heart.
He was a monk and believed in the Buddha. However, that was just out of respect and not fervent worship.
If he was blindly worshipping the Buddha, he wouldn’t have fallen into darkness and gone against the rules of Buddhism.
Heaven Heart was a monk who respected his own thoughts and feelings.
This was why he felt really uncomfortable looking at this High Mountain God. Such a demon-like god shouldn’t have even existed.
“Diamond Body Furious Eyes!”
Heaven Heart instantly became furious. His whole body shone gold as he used the Buddhist techniques. His body was filled with power as he lunged forwards with an elbow.
Dong!
Thousands of skulls were instantly shattered and turned to dust. The black mist around was scattered and the banner was flung aside. The High Mountain God also broke apart from the strike.
Heaven Heart went all out and was just so terrifying!
With just one strike, he defeated the High Mountain God.
He stepped forwards, causing the whole mountain to shake. The entire High Mountain Race God temple and the old man’s Domain became really unstable.
Ka ka ka!
The Domain started to crack and it stood no chance in this battle against Heaven Heart.
The old man was shocked and his faith was on the verge of falling apart.
His High Mountain God, the invincible High Mountain God… How could he be so weak?
In the past when he faced other Dao Saints, he was able to fight one against two and even survive one against three.
But now against Heaven Heart, he was unable to block a single strike. From just a single strike, his Domain had totally collapsed.
“That strike of mine carried with it the rage of the 18 disciples of Buddha. Although the Buddha often smiles, there are times when he is angry too. With the 18 disciples buffing me, you are no match for me at all.” Heaven Heart used his Domain to surround the old man.
He was a sheep waiting to be slaughtered!
“You… You destroyed my High Mountain God temple?” The old man panicked.
Heaven Heart ripped apart His Domain and now he fell into his Domain and was no match for Heaven Heart.
If they were to fight, he would definitely be killed.
But more importantly, the temple had been destroyed!
“Give me the Blood Letting Blade!” Heaven Heart raised his hands and said coldly.
The surroundings were in a mess. The temple was destroyed and the statues inside were shattered by Heaven Heart’s aura. Everything was now in ruins.
At that moment, the old man seemed decades older and a deathly energy spread around his body.
His faith had collapsed!
The god who he believed in for his whole life had been dragged down from the altar, causing him to lose all his dignity. As a Dao Saint, without this faith, he was unable to continue on this path.
Heaven Heart suddenly didn’t feel like killing the man. He felt pity for him, placing his faith and hopes in others. Now that he had lost his High Mountain God, he had lost his purpose in life.
