"Scarecrow?" Yan Zhaoge raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is it related to the Nailhead Seven Arrows Book?"
Gao Xuebo nodded. "That's right. According to the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du and the Goddess, this straw doll can help the Goddess recover as soon as possible."
"It is not impossible," Yan Zhaoge pondered as he nodded slowly.
After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Daoist Lu Ya is apologizing, but it's not enough. I think there are other ways to make it up to Saint Mother."
"Dao Lord Lu Ya was born in the Connate World. He has experienced Dao, Buddhism, and demons. There is no doubt that his foundation is rich. Perhaps he really has something that the Goddess is interested in."
The so-called foundation did not only refer to personal strength.
Most of the time, a secret that was unknown to others, something that others desired, could be more useful than a person's martial strength. The key was how to use it.
Fighting for the Immortal Extermination Array was the common interest of the entire Dao Sect.
The Incongruence Divine Mother was severely injured because of Daoist Lord Lu Ya. If she wanted to seek revenge on Daoist Lord Lu Ya, she would need to use the Immortal Extermination Formation. That would concern the entire Dao Sect.
However, if she decided not to seek revenge on Daolord Lu Ya, it would be a personal matter, and the Incongruence Divine Mother could decide for herself.
Now that Gao Qingxuan had relayed the news to the others, it was clear that Daoist Monarch Lu Ya's bargaining chip had moved the Incongruence Divine Mother.
Yan Zhaoge and the others naturally had no objections to this.
"With the Immortal Extermination Formation, our Daoism's direct lineage is no longer as weak as before. Daoist Lu Ya and the Demon Race would naturally try to mend their relationship with us." Yan Zhaoge shook his head slightly, "However, we still have to be careful."
At the same time of cooperation, friction and confrontation were unavoidable. After all, both sides had their own needs, and there were disputes and competitions between them.
When Daolord Lu Ya injured the Incongruence Divine Mother and fought for the Immortal Extermination Array, the Dao Sect's direct disciple also killed the Yellow Wind Monster and the Black Clouds Immortal, causing the demons to suffer heavy losses.
Two of the Nine-headed Bug's heads were smashed by Yang Jian and the monkey. It was heavily injured and on the verge of death.
The demons had even more reason to retaliate.
It was just that they had a deeper conflict with another opponent, the Western Pure Lands. Therefore, they were more restrained when facing the orthodox Daoism.
This principle was also applicable to the Western Pure Lands.
Now that the environment had just changed, everyone still needed to adjust and adapt. When everything was ready, a new round of conflicts and battles would erupt.
To the direct disciples of the Dao Sect, they were happy to have a stable period of time to continue to promote their own development and prepare for the upcoming situation.
"The main point is that apart from the Grand Supreme Elder, we have to quickly produce another Dao Realm mighty figure." Yan Zhaoge lightly rubbed his temples, "The Divine Mother is also a veteran Heavenly Lord who attained the dao during ancient times. How far away is she from the Dao Realm?"
Gao Xuebo and Long Xueji both shook their heads slightly, "According to what we know, it's hard to confirm anything at the moment. We'll have to see how things develop in the next few years."
After a slight pause, Long Xueji said, "According to the words of the old ancestor, the Divine Mother's path towards the Dao had once seen the light of dawn, but it was severed. Now, she has to start anew and walk another path. It is even more difficult, and the hope is even more uncertain."
The Old Grand Master he mentioned was naturally the Vine Sovereign, Li Ying, who had already passed away before the Great Calamity.
"I see. No wonder Daolord Lu Ya was able to move her heart." Yan Zhaoge stroked his chin, "I wonder who was the one who obstructed the Divine Mother's first path?"
After asking, Yan Zhaoge noticed that Gao Xuebo and Long Xueji's expressions were a little weird.
"I heard that it was the Manjushri Bodhisattva …" Gao Xuebo said slowly, "In other words, the Manjushri Heavenly Lord of the past."
Yan Zhaoge blinked his eyes and laughed, "The weather today is really nice …"
The Manjushri Heavenly Lord was one of the Jade Clear lineage's bigwigs during the Ancient era.
After the Investiture of the Gods War, he entered Buddhism along with the Samantabhadra Cultivated Deity, the Compassionate Cultivated Deity, Qiansun, and the others. They transformed into the Manjushri Bodhisattva and stood alongside the Samantabhadra Bodhisattva and the Guanyin Bodhisattva.
After the Middle era, the Mystical Mountain's Tathagata Buddha and the Gautama Buddha transcended, and the Maitreya Buddha transformed the central Blessed Lands of Saha into the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus. Countless Buddhist Bhantes perished. The Manjushri Bodhisattva was one of them.
Only, Yan Zhaoge didn't know that the Manjushri Bodhisattva had once obstructed the Incongruence Divine Mother's path.
"I wonder if the Incongruence Divine Mother interfered when the Manjushri Bodhisattva perished?" Yan Zhaoge guessed maliciously.
"Between the Manjushri Bodhisattva and the Divine Mother, they might be fighting for the same treasure or the same fortune. You have it, while I don't." Gao Xuebo said, "The deceased is already dead. There's no need to say anything more. It's just adding more troubles for the Divine Mother."
Yan Zhaoge pondered for a while and said, "While the Great Daoist Xuan Du is already prepared, the more Grand Heavenly Immortals we have, the better."
He told Gao Xuebo and Long Xueji about how Daolord Lu Ya, the Dipankara Ancient Buddha, the Great Daoist Xuan Du, and the others were waiting for a fortune in the Nine Underworlds.
"It's still hard to say if the Divine Mother can make it in time." Gao Xuebo listened attentively and said, "After all, when this will begin depends on the results of the various parties. We should place our hopes on the Great Daoist Xuan Du."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "For now, that's indeed the case."
He looked at Gao Xuebo and Long Xueji, "Senior apprentice-sister Yu's condition has already stabilized. What I'm saying is that we shouldn't be in a hurry to wake her up. Let's continue searching for treasures like the Blood Cord Stone Pith, Soul Shattering Jade, and Spirit Ocean Essence."
"If we can achieve the best outcome, it'd naturally be good. If not, we shouldn't force it." Gao Xuebo sighed.
Yan Zhaoge nodded and smiled, "Right, Qing 'er has started Sheathing Edge and Nurturing Sword?"
Gao Xuebo's expression relaxed slightly, "Indeed. Her personality is still a little unstable. However, there's nothing wrong with Sheathing Edge and Nurturing Sword. It can be used to train her."
Gao Qing was Gao Xuebo's granddaughter. In the past, she was a rising star of the Prime Clear lineage of the Roving Jade Heavens. Her reputation was rather resounding. Although her cultivation was slower than Fu Ting's, she was still younger than Fu Ting. The two were famed geniuses of the Roving Jade Heavens and the World beyond Worlds.
Although they were inferior to Chen Qianhua, Nie Jingshen, Yu Ye, and He Mian, they were still monstrous talents that far surpassed the masses.
Fu Ting had already pushed open the door to Immortality and ascended to the True Immortal realm.
Gao Qing was slower than her. Still, she had already become a Human Exalt long ago, having caught up to her little uncle, Long Hanhua.
Considering how difficult it was for sword cultivators to improve in the first place, Gao Qing's rate of improvement was rather shocking.
After attaining the Human Exalt realm, Gao Qing had started Sheathing Edge and Nurturing Sword as well.
It seemed like her improvement had slowed down, as if she might stagnate for many years like her grandfather, Gao Xuebo.
Still, Sheathing Edge and Nurturing Sword was essentially a technique that pursued perfection, allowing the strong to become even more powerful.
Those who could successfully nurture their swords were extremely rare. This meant that if they cultivated normally, they would also have a chance of pushing open the door to Immortality based on their own talent and strength.
