Waiting for this tag. No updates for now.
I am the once-in-a-century genius of Jinshan Temple, born with Buddha bones and praised by my master, Fahai, as a "living Buddha walking among us." I am destined to lead the Buddhist faith.
My mission is to descend the mountain and subdue the thousand-year-old snake demon wreaking havoc among mortals.
But the one I meet is a white-robed physician, gentle as jade, who heals the sick and saves lives. When I'm wounded fighting demons, he clumsily applies medicine to my injuries. When my senior brothers ostracize me, he secretly brings me a bowl of hot porridge.
For the first time, my frozen Buddhist heart stirs for a "demon."
Only when the master I respect most personally locks me inside Leifeng Pagoda, using heart-searing Buddhist magic to cleanse my memories day and night, do I finally see the truth.
"Xuan'er, I'm doing this for your own good. Only by severing all desire and affection can you attain Buddhahood!"
So this is what he means by "for your own good": imprisoning me in a tower, destroying my will, and killing the one I love!
When he summons the waters of the Qiantang River, willing to trade a thousand years of cultivation for my freedom, I smile.
"Master, I'll repay your kindness in raising me in the next life. Today, I renounce the Buddha's path!"
I shatter the pagoda, break my Buddha bones, and shield him with my demonic body, pointing my staff at the gods and Buddhas across the sky.
"Touch him, and you'll have to step over my corpse first!"
