The Daoist Equal to Heaven let go of his attachment and eliminated the Heart Demon, finally unaffected by the guile of the Heavenly Demons.
These Heavenly Demons aim to instigate all sorts of distracting thoughts in those cultivating. With an abundance of distracting thoughts, one's spirit will waver, allowing the Demons to devour the cultivator's spirit. If a person's Primordial Spirit is like a great river dike, then such thoughts are like ant holes on the dike. A long dike will ultimately be destroyed by those ant holes.
Although these Heavenly Demons possess limitless transformations, the Daoist Equal to Heaven stood firm as a rock, his heart clear as crystal, unmoved by the eight winds. He had already attained the ability to become a Buddha on the spot.
In the eyes of an Enlightened One, all is emptiness. To him, these illusions of Heavenly Demons are nothing more than fleeting clouds or a mirage in a dream.
