Currently, many forces were fighting against each other, and the situation was chaotic and ever-changing. This gave Kong Xuan a chance to act.
Under most circumstances, as the number one person below the Dao Realm, Mahamayuri had the capability to benefit from both sides.
"However, it's getting harder and harder for him." Yan Zhaoge said, "The Demon Race obtained a Buddha's Śarīra. If they intend to control Mahamayuri, it might not be that Śarīra."
He looked at Feng Yunsheng and slowly said, "If I'm not wrong, the price Mahamayuri paid for helping the Western Pure Lands twice was two Buddha's Śarīra."
"In other words, Mahamayuri has at least two Buddha's Śarīra in his possession." Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly, "If the Elder Lord's information is true, there should be a total of five Buddha's Śarīra."
Feng Yunsheng understood and said, "Other than the two Buddha's Śarīra that the Western Pure Lands offered, we don't know if Mahamayuri had any other Buddha's Śarīra."
"Yes. Other than the two Buddha's Śarīra and the one obtained by the Demon Race, there are still two Buddha's Śarīra missing." Yan Zhaoge answered, "If these two Buddha's Śarīra were already in Mahamayuri's possession, the one obtained by the Demon Race would be the fifth Buddha's Śarīra. It's also the only Buddha's Śarīra that hasn't been obtained by Mahamayuri."
With that, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Daolord Lu Ya, and the other Demon Race bigwigs would forcefully occupy this Buddha's Śarīra.
The value of this Buddha's Śarīra would skyrocket, and it wouldn't be something that Mahamayuri could exchange for just one Buddha's Śarīra.
Putting aside the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Daolord Lu Ya would definitely hold onto the Buddha's Śarīra tightly and wouldn't exchange it for Mahamayuri no matter what.
Otherwise, he would have to face an extremely strong opponent like Mahamayuri in his path of ascending to the Dao Realm.
Currently, no one could confirm the opportunity that Kong Xuan needed to ascend to the Dao Realm.
However, the upcoming situation that originated from the Nine Underworlds was extremely important to all of the Grand Heavenly Immortals who were preparing to ascend to the Dao Realm.
No matter how the Nine Underworlds changed, whether it changed for the better or for the worse, the objective foundation was there. For such a huge existence to undergo a huge change, it was a great tribulation that was hard to come by in ten thousand years, a great opportunity.
If he wanted to break through to the Dao Realm, he had to take this hurdle seriously.
The fewer the competitors, the greater his chances. He believed that apart from Daolord Lu Ya, Dipankara Ancient Buddha, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, and the others would not be happy to see Mahamayuri gather all five relics.
"But there is a problem here." Yan Zhaoge lightly rubbed his temple, "Lu Ya, or should I say, the Buddha's Śarīra that the Demon Race currently possesses, is it the last one for Mahamayuri?"
He and Feng Yunsheng looked at each other and shook their heads with bitter smiles.
Whether it was the last one or not would make a huge difference.
Unfortunately, the Dao Sect's direct disciples were unable to confirm the correct answer to this question.
This raised another question. Did Daolord Lu Ya and the others know where the relics were?
Did they know how many relics Mahamayuri had in his possession?
This would determine what they would do with the relic.
With the last relic in hand, it was actually a very delicate situation.
In order to block Kong Xuan's path, it was almost impossible for anyone to allow Kong Xuan to gather enough relics.
This relic was extremely important to Kong Xuan. If Kong Xuan could obtain it, he would have the confidence to demand a high price from him and even do whatever he wanted.
However, Mahamayuri knew his own limitations. He knew that no one wanted him to gather enough relics.
The chance of obtaining the last relic through trading was so low that it was almost negligible.
If that was the case, Mahamayuri might even resort to robbing.
The person who possessed the last relic might become his target instead.
If he could destroy the last relic, Kong Xuan's hopes would be completely cut off.
Only, that relic was left behind by the Gautama Buddha who had already transcended. Not to mention whether it could be destroyed, even if it could, it was hard to say whether it would lead to an unpredictable outcome.
Moreover, if that happened, Kong Xuan would be completely enmity with him.
As such, the last relic was of little value.
If it wasn't for the last relic, it would be much easier for the Demon Race to deal with it.
Only, how to confirm how many relics Kong Xuan had in his possession was a problem.
This was also the reason why Yan Zhaoge was having a headache.
Who Mahamayuri would help, at present, was something that the people of Taoism had no choice but to consider when formulating a plan.
"From the looks of it, one of the two relics that the Dipankara Buddha traded with Mahamayuri came from the Tushita Palace's Elder Lord, and the other might be obtained when he left the central Blessed Lands of Saha. It might also be from the Western Pure Lands' Amitabha Buddha."
"In the past, Ananda brought one out from the central Blessed Lands of Saha, which was the one that landed in the Demon Race's hands." Yan Zhaoge counted with his fingers, "I suspect that the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus' future Buddha, as the Gautama Buddha or Daoist Zhun Ti's intended successor, might have one in his possession!"
"If you're right, there's still one missing," said Feng Yunsheng with a frown.
Yan Zhaoge let out a long sigh, "If the Dipankara Buddha brought one away from the central Blessed Lands of Saha, the Western Pure Lands' Amitabha Buddha might have another."
"If the first relic that the Dipankara Buddha traded with Mahamayuri came from the Amitabha Buddha, I can't guess where the last relic is."
Yan Zhaoge smiled bitterly, "If Mahamayuri already possessed one relic, things would be much simpler."
"If that's the case, he would have at least three relics in his possession." Feng Yunsheng asked, "If your initial guess is correct, the remaining two relics are in the Demon Race and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus respectively?"
Yan Zhaoge slapped his forehead, "I'm afraid that only the person involved would know."
After discussing for a while, the two suddenly turned around.
Long Xueji walked out.
As time passed, Long Xueji had already surpassed the Pure Profound Tribulation and achieved the Duo Qis Fused Aura, achieving the Tranquil Profound Immortal body.
It wasn't easy for sword cultivators to improve. Long Xueji's speed was already shocking.
"Senior apprentice-uncle Long, how's senior apprentice-sister Yu?" asked Yan Zhaoge.
Long Xueji said slowly, "She's a strong child to begin with. However, on the surface, she's calmer than we expected. However …"
At this point, he paused for a moment.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng frowned.
On the surface,
