The female cultivator no longer uses illusory monsters to intimidate Shen Yue, because she knows that for Shen Yue, illusions are just empty appearances. Why fear emptiness?
The "Heart Sutra" says—Bodhisattva, relying on Prajna Paramita, the mind is without hindrances.
Why is the mind without hindrances?
Attachment leads to concerns; how can emptiness have concerns? Following the guidance of Prajna Paramita is to walk the bright path straight to reality. To reach reality, one must know what is emptiness.
The path is clear and bright. Since Shen Yue can observe the five aggregates as empty, the illusions created by the female cultivator are merely products of the five aggregates. Why should Shen Yue fear them? Thus, the female cultivator also counters Shen Yue with reality.
Ksitigarbha once said—Hell won't be empty until I become a Buddha.
But how can Hell be empty?
