The Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag could block Mahamayuri's attack.
However, it could only passively protect one side. Mahamayuri still had the upper hand.
However, this treasure was still extremely important to the orthodox Daoism.
After all, even without the Great Sage Equalling Heavens, they still had Yang Jian, Suo Mingzhang, Feng Yunsheng, and the others.
All these years, Yang Jian, the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor, and the other Daoism bigwigs had been searching for this treasure.
Feng Yunsheng, the North Star Emperor, and the other Daoism bigwigs had been searching for it. Unfortunately, they hadn't found anything yet.
"I'm in charge of the Immortal Extermination Formation and can't be distracted. I can only entrust the Western Pure Lands' matters to you." The Incongruence Divine Mother said, "If the Amitabha Buddha makes a move, I'll try to deal with it."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "This is the most important matter. Thank you, Divine Mother."
"Right, when you're trying to interfere with the Shakyamuni's matters, you have to be wary of the other party's ulterior motives," said the Incongruence Divine Mother.
"I understand. Thank you, Divine Mother, for your reminder." Yan Zhaoge cupped his hands towards the fading green sword-light.
During the battle a hundred years ago, when they fought for the Immortal Extermination Formation, Yan Zhaoge and the Daoism's people acted as if they were lying. While they had already obtained the Six Soul Banner from the Tushita Palace, they still acted as if they were looking for the Six Soul Banner to conceal their intentions of seizing the Immortal Extermination Formation.
In the end, Yun Xiao Fairy sacrificed the Six Soul Banner and obstructed the Dao Ancestors for an instant, allowing Yan Zhaoge and the others to escape after obtaining the Immortal Extermination Formation.
In the end, the Immortal Extermination Formation fell under Daoism's control, allowing them to single-handedly turn the situation around since the Great Calamity.
If the orthodox Daoism could do such a thing, other forces like the Western Pure Lands could naturally do it too.
Investigating the opponent's true intentions and concealing one's own was an important aspect of the game.
Because of Shang Na and the Exalt Xiu, Yan Zhaoge and the others thought of Lord Ananda, the Shakyamuni, and the Mahamuni.
However, this might be a smokescreen released by the Western Pure Lands to mislead Yan Zhaoge, Daoism, or the Demon Race and the Nine Underworlds.
Under the disguise, the orthodox Daoism 'true intentions might be something else.
Yan Zhaoge even suspected that this might be a trap laid down by the Western Pure Lands, waiting for someone to step into it.
"Should I think of a way to leak the news to Mahamayuri?" Yan Zhaoge pondered.
If the news was leaked to Mahamayuri, it would be convenient to verify the authenticity of this matter. At the same time, it would also give the Western Pure Lands a huge headache.
However, it was not without its disadvantages.
As long as the state of Dao did not appear, Mahamayuri's strength was undeniable. If there really was a Buddha's Sarira, it was very likely that it would fall into his hands.
The number of Buddha's relics in Mahamayuri's hands gradually increased, which meant that he was getting closer to the Dao Realm.
They were still unsure of the specific conditions for Mahamayuri to break through to the Dao realm. However, not only were Dipankara Ancient Buddha and Daolord Lu Ya unwilling to see such a competitor, the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du and the orthodox Dao Sect were also unwilling to see him.
As Yan Zhaoge pondered, his sleeve suddenly moved.
A small head with dark circles under its eyes popped out from the cuffs.
"Have you slept enough?" Yan Zhaoge asked casually.
The one lying within his sleeve was naturally Pan-Pan. Previously, after manifesting the Golden Body of the Great Sage and wielding the Ru Yi Golden Cudgel, he had been sleeping soundly as usual.
However, just like how Yan Zhaoge's North Ocean Clone and Xue Fei were deeply affected by the Golden Body of the Great Sage, Pan-Pan had also been affected by it.
Now, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was a Great Demon that had ascended to the Great Void Small Saint's position.
After manifesting the Golden Body of the Great Sage, she was still sleeping soundly. In the past, it could be said that she had consumed too much energy and had no choice but to rest. Now, even if she had to rest, there was no need to do so. Instead, it was more of a habit of hers.
"I've slept enough," answered Pan-Pan softly. Then, she immediately said, "But, I'm hungry!"
Yan Zhaoge pulled her out from his sleeve and placed her in front of him. He stared at her with an annoyed expression, "As the saying goes, 'eat and sleep long, eat and sleep long.' If you continue to be so gluttonous, you'll grow fatter and fatter."
Pan-Pan blinked her eyes and raised her front paws to cover her face, "I don't want to get fatter. I won't be pretty if I get fatter!"
Yan Zhaoge nodded in satisfaction, "It's good that you know."
"… But, I'm still hungry." Pan-Pan looked pitiful and asked a little mischievously, "Can I eat delicious food and not get fatter at the same time?"
"You're dreaming." Yan Zhaoge felt annoyed and amused at the same time, "How can there be such a good thing as taking all the benefits in the world?"
"Oh, you, stop teasing her." A voice resounded by the side. Within the dark void, the silhouette of a human figure silently appeared without any signs.
After the silhouette became clear, Feng Yunsheng's figure appeared.
"Oh, you, don't spoil her too much." Yan Zhaoge grinned.
When Pan-Pan saw Feng Yunsheng, he immediately extended his front paws and hugged her. Then, his hind legs pushed against Yan Zhaoge's palms and he flew towards Feng Yunsheng.
Feng Yunsheng smiled and caught Pan-Pan. Then, she looked at Yan Zhaoge, "Don't you think that the Pixiu would be cuter if he were fatter and rounder?"
Of course, Yan Zhaoge felt the same way. He had only been joking with Pan-Pan earlier. Now that he heard Feng Yunsheng's words, he smiled, "You're going to spoil her rotten."
"How could that be?" As Feng Yunsheng hugged Pan-Pan, she took out a small pouch.
Seeing that small pouch, Pan-Pan immediately cheered. He waved his paws and directly stuck his head inside.
Feng Yunsheng touched the black and white fur and turned to look at Yan Zhaoge, "I've heard about the situation from Han Long 'er. How's the situation now?"
"It might be related to the Buddha's Śarīra." Yan Zhaoge answered, "However, I still need to confirm it."
"What do you plan to do?" asked Feng Yunsheng.
Yan Zhaoge stroked his chin, "I think I should try to leak the news to Mahamayuri and see his reaction. Also, I'd like to see the Western Pure Lands' reaction."
"We don't have a direct channel to contact Mahamayuri," said Feng Yunsheng.
Mahamayuri resided in the Western Pure Lands and almost never interacted with the outside world.
Of course, he had the freedom to travel freely. However, from a certain perspective, this was the result of him coming to an agreement with the Western Pure Lands. Or, it could be said that he had a tacit agreement with the Amitabha Buddha.
"Although I'm not certain, various signs show that Mahamayuri has at least two Buddha's Śarīra Śarīra." Yan Zhaoge pondered and said, "For the sake of obtaining more Buddha's Śarīra Śarīra, he should really be thinking of making a move."
"Let's not talk about others. His twin brother, the Roc of Ten Thousand Cloudy Miles, should have a way to contact him. However, it's inconvenient for us to look for him."
Yan Zhaoge snapped his fingers, "However, I think that we might be able to think of a way through others."
