Chapter 617: The Visitor

In the dim forest, Li Huowang's conversation with the abbot of Zhengde Temple continued, though compared with the previous atmosphere, it had become much more relaxed.

"Who is your Fate Commander?" Li Huowang stared at the old monk in front of him and asked.

"Fate Commander? We, who have renounced worldly life for Buddhism, believe in Buddha, believe in Bodhisattva, but never in fate."

Li Huowang immediately changed his approach. "Oh, then which Buddha do you believe in?"

"Amitabha, in the central Diamond Realm is Vairocana, in the eastern Land of Fragrant Accumulations is Akshobhya, in the southern World of Joy is Buddha Ratnasambhava, in the Western Paradise World is Amitabha, and in the northern Lotus Realm is the Buddha of Achievement; together, they are called the Five Wisdom Tathagatas."

"The Five Wisdom Tathagatas? Are they the Fate Commanders in charge of flesh and blood, or of birth?" Li Huowang pondered to himself.
