As soon as Yan Zhaoge finished his sentence, Feng Yunsheng, Yang Jian, and Nezha all looked towards him.
The three of them weren't doubting Yan Zhaoge. Instead, they revealed expressions of contemplation.
"Our crux lies in the Nine Underworlds' match. The few Grand Heavenly Immortals fighting for the Dao Realm's fortune." Yan Zhaoge's gaze was dim, "The Amitabha Buddha and the Eastern Sovereign Taiyi's plan was actually because of the Nine Underworlds' changes, which caused the epoch to end prematurely."
He didn't continue.
He had to be cautious when discussing the Dao Realm bigwigs' vital points. Otherwise, it would attract their attention.
However, the others already understood Yan Zhaoge's intentions.
"You're right, Daoist. That's exactly what I was thinking!" Nezha clapped his hands and smiled.
"By then, the variables would be huge." Yang Jian said, "As expected, the crux lies in who can enter the Dao Ascension Realm."
"Who's going first? This is a huge problem." He looked towards Yan Zhaoge, "If senior apprentice-uncle Xuan Du and the others decide the winner first, and we lose this match, we have to make a decision even if we're unwilling."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Just as you said."
"If we didn't guess wrongly, the Eastern Sovereign has the upper hand between the Amitabha Buddha and the Eastern Sovereign." Nezha said, "Logically speaking, the Amitabha Buddha should be more anxious. However, he didn't tell us about it. Instead, the Eastern Sovereign sent a letter to remind us."
The Bodhisattva of Guanyin represented the Western Pure Lands to attend the ceremony. She also had the intention of improving their relationship with the Daoism lineage.
However, she didn't mention anything about the competition between the Amitabha Buddha and the Eastern Sovereign Taiyi.
"Just like what Yunsheng said, compared to us, the Nine Underworlds is the most suitable ally for the Western Pure Lands. Of course, they would definitely be wary of each other." Yan Zhaoge said, "On the other hand, although we and the central Blessed Lands of Saha are both affected by the competition between the two Dao Ancestors, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord and the Great Calamity were all caused by the Western Pure Lands."
Under the premise that there were no other choices, many people in the Dao Sect probably had the same idea as Nezha. They would rather help the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
The Amitabha Buddha and the Western Pure Lands were well aware of this.
"Speaking of which, I can't help but admire the ancient Dipankara Buddhism." Yan Zhaoge said, feeling annoyed and amused at the same time, "Look at his gift. It's really cunning!"
When Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng got married, the Bodhisattva Guanyin came to observe the ceremony. She also presented a bottle of Tranquil Sweet Dew.
This Sweet Dew was rare in this world, and it was the best at cleansing impurities. It was indeed a top-notch treasure. For example, after the Green Lotus Flag was polluted by the Nine Abyss Sea, it could be cleansed with this Sweet Dew.
Other than the gift from Guanyin Bodhisattva, the ancient Dipankara Buddha also had a gift for him.
When they met just now, the Bodhisattva Guanyin had passed the ancient Dipankara Buddha's gift to Yan Zhaoge.
Hearing that, Feng Yunsheng and Nezha looked over curiously.
When Yan Zhaoge was meeting with the Bodhisattva Guanyin, the Grand Saint of Nine Spirits came to visit. As such, Yan Zhaoge sat down and chatted with the Grand Saint of Nine Spirits.
Previously, when he received the Bodhisattva Guanyin's gift, Feng Yunsheng and Nezha hadn't seen it yet. On the other hand, Yang Jian, who accompanied Yan Zhaoge to entertain the Bodhisattva, already knew about it.
After hearing Yan Zhaoge's words, Yang Jian smiled and nodded, revealing a look of deep agreement.
"Here, take a look." Yan Zhaoge opened his sleeve, revealing a brocade handkerchief.
When he opened the brocade handkerchief, there seemed to be two fat kids sitting inside. They had all four limbs and facial features.
Nezha was stunned when he saw it.
"Ginseng fruit?"
Although it was Feng Yunsheng's first time seeing a ginseng fruit in reality, she had seen the appearance of several spiritual fruits in this world through the illustrations. Thus, she wasn't unfamiliar with its appearance.
Moreover, there was a ginseng fruit tree planted by Yan Zhaoge on the Broad Creed Mountain in the Zhu Luo Royal Reed Heaven.
Only, the ginseng fruit tree on the Broad Creed Mountain was grafted. Its spirit qi was much weaker, and the miraculous effects of the fruit were much weaker as well.
The two ginseng fruits in Yan Zhaoge's hands were the real deal. They were grown by the ginseng fruit tree in the Five Manor Locale above the Primordial Suppressing Immortal's Manor. The spiritual beauty of the heavens and earth was boundlessly marvelous, surpassing the spiritual fruit tree on the Broad Creed Mountain.
"Fresh ginseng fruits. They were just plucked not long ago …" Feng Yunsheng frowned as she looked at the two fruits.
Ginseng fruits were miraculous and precious.
Not to mention that the fruits would perish upon encountering the Five Elements when plucking them. If one wasn't careful, the fruits would be wasted. Even if they were plucked, they had to be consumed as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if they were left for a long time, the fruits would become stiff, and their effects would be greatly reduced. Their taste would also be bad.
"The ginseng fruit tree of the Primordial Suppressing Immortal is in the Western Pure Lands?" asked Feng Yunsheng with a frown.
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "It should be."
"The ancient Dipankara Buddha didn't just give us this as a gift, right?" Feng Yunsheng asked, "Does he have other intentions? Is he trying to hint us about the Primordial Suppressing Immortal? "
"That's why I said that Dipankara was cunning enough." Yan Zhaoge revealed an expression that seemed like he was smiling, "He gave us two fruits, and it seemed like he didn't say anything. However, he told us a bunch of messy things and made us guess."
If they guessed correctly, it would be another gift. If they guessed wrongly, they might be tricked.
"Dipankara, that bastard …" Nezha gritted his teeth. He couldn't wait to go to the Western Pure Lands and settle the score with the ancient Dipankara Buddha.
"According to the rumors, the Five Manor Locale had fallen during the Great Calamity. However, the information regarding the ginseng fruit tree was vague." Feng Yunsheng said, "From the looks of it, the ginseng fruit tree wasn't destroyed. Instead, it was transplanted to the Western Pure Lands. However, what happened to the Primordial Suppressing Immortal?"
Ever since the Great Calamity, there was no news of the Primordial Suppressing Immortal.
Based on the information Yan Zhaoge and the others possessed, during the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace's chaos, which was also the birth of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, more than one Daoism bigwig tried to stop it. Unfortunately, they didn't succeed in the end.
The Primordial Suppressing Immortal might have participated in it as well.
However, on the other hand, he became one of the suspects for transforming into the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord.
"There are three possibilities." Yan Zhaoge said, "Firstly, the Primordial Suppressing Immortal is still alive. However, he's living in seclusion in the Western Pure Lands, not bothering about worldly affairs. Just like the Grand Saint of Nine Spirits and the yellow-robed monster, we have no idea of his whereabouts."
"Secondly, the Primordial Suppressing Immortal had perished, and the ginseng fruit tree had fallen into the hands of either the Amitabha Buddha or the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord."
"Thirdly, the Primordial Suppressing Immortal is the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, and the ginseng fruit tree had always been in his hands."
Yan Zhaoge weighed the fruit in his hand and chuckled, "This thing is really good. The ancient Buddha is truly cunning."
