It is said that Emperor Ming of Han, Liu Zhuang, dreamed of a golden man and Fu Yi received guidance from a sage of the West, who clarified that what Liu Zhuang dreamed of was indeed the Golden Body of a great saint of the Western Heaven. Emperor Ming took this deeply to heart, considering it an auspicious omen, and thus dispatched Cai Yin to lead a group of envoys, wishing to seek the Buddhist path in the West Cow He State.
However, his younger brother Liu Cang was sullen and unhappy, for the Daoist Equal to Heaven had already outlined to him the pros and cons of the Buddhist sect's entry into the Eastern Land. But it was difficult to go against his elder brother's wishes, so he could only return to his mansion and seek out the Daoist Equal to Heaven for answers.
