"Exalted Solar Luminary, Gao Han …" Yan Zhaoge felt displeased even as he pondered.
There was no doubt that someone was plotting against him.
While the other party's true target might not be him, he was still considered a part of the plan.
Yan Di frowned as well.
"It's fine." Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before suddenly smiling, "Let's just take what we need. What matters is who will have the last laugh."
"There must be a reason why he wanted to use you to sweep the Exalted Fire Luminary away. Once we understand the root of the problem, we might be able to do something about it."
Xue Chuqing said leisurely, "The greatest possibility is that it's because of the differences in ideologies in the World beyond Worlds."
Due to the fact that the lineage of the Bright Connection Emperor was in a terrible situation, the descendants of the Bright Connection Emperor's lineage often taught everything they knew to their disciples just in case their lineage was suddenly cut short.
Therefore, Xue Chuqing knew many secrets that others did not.
"The original World beyond Worlds experienced much bloodshed, darkness, and many twists and turns before the situation gradually stabilized." Xue Chuqing said, "Still, differences of opinion appeared among the bigwigs who were in charge of the matter. In the end, it caused a rift."
"Some left, and some stayed. Those who stayed ultimately completely stabilized the situation of the World beyond Worlds until now."
At this point, Xue Chuqing suddenly paused.
"I already know about Buddhism, the Immortal Court, and the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord." Yan Zhaoge smiled.
Hearing his words, Xue Chuqing's expression changed greatly, "You have yet to reach the Human Exalt Martial Saint realm …"
Yan Zhaoge waved his hands towards her, "Relax, I'm fine. Just like how you are safe with half of the River Diagram protecting you, I have my ways too."
"While the Dim Radiant Emperor's Dim Radiant Wheel was not completed, I have carefully analysed the concept of peerless infinity within it. With the combination of man and treasure, the seed of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord would not have been planted."
Hearing his words, Xue Chuqing's expression eased greatly. Still, she was still very worried.
"You should continue talking about the World beyond Worlds." Yan Zhaoge changed the topic.
Xue Chuqing gave him a deep look before she let out a long sigh.
"Since you already know, there is no need for me to hide it." She said slowly, "The Grand Clear direct lineage is rare. The new Kunlun Nine Luminaries who established the World beyond Worlds were all of the Jade Clear direct lineage."
"However, there were disagreements between them. In the end, the disagreements were irreconcilable, and they finally parted ways.
"One faction is inclined towards stable development, accumulating silently and waiting for an opportunity to revive our orthodox Daoism."
"The other faction is relatively radical. They believe that accumulating their own strength is important, but they also need to beat around the bush and obstruct the development of the Immortal Court heretics."
Xue Chuqing said, "There is no need to say much about the former. The Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign were both of this faction. The Astro Sovereign who had also stayed in the World beyond Worlds afterwards was relatively neutral."
"The latter faction consists of the Exalted Solar Luminary, the Exalted Lunar Luminary and my Great Grand Master."
"Eunuch and the Exalted Rahu Luminary perished earlier, so we don't have to mention them. As for the Exalted Fire Luminary, just like the Astro Sovereign, he remains neutral." Xue Chuqing paused for a moment before saying, "According to Grand Master, rather than saying that the Exalted Fire Luminary is neutral, it is not that he does not have a clear stance."
Yan Zhaoge looked at Xue Chuqing, "Uh, mother, please wait a moment. If the Exalted Wood Luminary is a radical, then the Bright Connection Emperor's lineage …"
"Of course he intentionally disguised himself and then concealed himself," Xue Chuqing said confidently.
Yan Zhaoge's face twitched slightly, "Yes, he concealed himself very successfully and even dragged the Dim Radiant Emperor down with him …"
Xue Chuqing said solemnly, "The Dim Radiant Emperor's merits are immeasurable. He sacrificed himself for justice. We disciples of orthodox Daoism should remember this in our hearts."
"So the rumours are true?" Yan Zhaoge's expression immediately turned solemn as well, "What exactly is the use of the Heavenly Essence Stone?"
Xue Chuqing said slowly, "If the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord obtains the complete Heavenly Essence Stone, he would be able to easily illuminate our orthodox Daoism. Even experts who have pushed open the door to Immortality would have their soul imprint engraved upon hearing his name."
"As long as the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord is willing, we would immediately become his believers with just a single thought!"
Yan Zhaoge lightly tapped his forehead as countless thoughts instantly flashed through his mind.
There had been no information regarding the Heavenly Essence Stone within the martial repository of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace.
Was this a product of post-Great Calamity times or was it that its origins were even more secretive than he had thought?
"Mother, where is the fragment of the Heavenly Essence Stone now?" Yan Zhaoge asked softly, "Is it really in your hands?"
Xue Chuqing shook her head, "It was, but it is no longer."
She seemed to be referring to something as she scanned the surrounding heavens and earth, "It is everywhere now."
"Junior apprentice-sister Sikong and the others are really …"
"Junior apprentice-niece Sikong and the others are really …"
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di immediately understood.
"It looks like a child has entered Broad Creed Mountain? You have come into contact with more than one as well? "Xue Chuqing nodded," Yes, that's right. It is just as you guessed. "
Yan Di said slowly, "Since that is so, the World beyond Worlds is also a beneficiary of the Dim Radiant Emperor's actions."
"The Earthly Sovereign and the others might not be unaware of this." Xue Chuqing sighed lightly, "Even so, it would be hard for them to admit it openly. Perhaps only time will be able to give the Dim Radiant Emperor and Grand Master justice."
"What exactly is the background of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord?" Yan Di asked in a heavy tone, "When did Daoism produce such a figure?"
Xue Chuqing shook her head slowly, "No one knows exactly where he came from. Still, it is certain that he is definitely a Heavenly Lord of our Daoism!"
"Otherwise, even with the assistance of the Heavenly Essence Stone, it would still be impossible for him to illuminate descendants of our orthodox Daoism so easily."
Yan Zhaoge gazed upwards, "Heavenly Lord … is it?"
The Heavenly Lord here was more of an honorific than a cultivation base.
The 'Heavenly Lord' in the titles of the founders of the Three Purities was naturally not the same as the 'Heavenly Lord' in the titles of the Lord of Broad Accomplishment, the Lord of Plentiful Treasure, the Lord of Manjushri and the Lord of Daoism.
Meanwhile, while the legendary Daoist Lu Ya, the Primordial Suppressing Child and the Four Imperials of Daoism did not have the word 'Heavenly Lord' in their titles, no one would doubt their strength.
Peak bigwigs might not necessarily have the title of Heavenly Lord.
Still, experts who could have the title of Heavenly Lord would definitely be extraordinary.
"Being able to stand toe to toe with the Future Buddha, does that mean that he has improved upon his original foundation?" Yan Zhaoge muttered to himself, "Still, if he has taken that step, doesn't that mean …"
He rubbed his temples, saying, "There are only those few peak bigwigs of Daoism. I wonder how many of them have survived the Great Calamity? At the end of the day, they are just one of the limited few. Those who are capable of taking that step are even fewer. "
"Still, too many bigwigs of Daoism have vanished without a trace, their whereabouts unknown. Therefore, it is hard to estimate the true identity of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord," Xue Chuqing said, "As for those who are definitely still alive, I know of three."
