"Not only are they paying attention to it, they have long since been ready to make a move," Yan Zhaoge said slowly, "They are just waiting for a chance."
Feng Yunsheng said slowly, "I'm waiting for the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon."
The Great Tribulation of the Nine Underworlds several thousand years ago and the subsequent collapse of the Immortal Court were also known by many as the Second Great Calamity of this era.
During that great tribulation, several Dao Ancestors personally took action.
In the end, Amitabha, Primordial Skyfiend, Great Freedom Skyfiend, and the Future Buddha Maitreya all suffered greatly.
As time passed, Amitabha, Maitreya, and the Primordial Heavenly Demon had long recovered.
Only the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon, who had suffered the most back then and had almost died, remained in seclusion.
"After the destruction of the Nine Underworlds in the past, my relationship with the Demon Path dissipated, and I was no longer affected by the Demon Path. However, I also lost the ability to sense the Primordial Heavenly Demon and the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon." Feng Yunsheng frowned. "It's hard for me to judge the current situation of the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon, and it's the same for Senior Brother Nie."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "It's fine. We can just wait and see."
He looked up at the blue sky above his head and said leisurely, "If my senses aren't wrong, Kong Xuan should be ready."
"Did Mahamayuri obtain the last thing he needed?" Feng Yunsheng's eyes flashed.
"He should be ready by now." A profound talisman surfaced within Yan Zhaoge's pupils, "Unlike the situation of the Nine Underworlds that year, he might already be able to take that step now. Still, he requires the help of others to protect him, lest he might be disturbed and destroyed."
This talisman was different from the Origin Heavenly Scripture. It was a completely new existence that had never been seen before.
Different from the jade green or purplish-gold radiance from before, the talisman within Yan Zhaoge's pupils was currently formed of numerous streams of clear qi, possessing its own profundities.
"There is currently no movement. This means that what he lacks is not in the hands of the East Sovereign or the Future Buddha," Yan Zhaoge said softly.
The Dao Sect's direct descendants would naturally know if the monkey had it or not.
The Grand Supreme Elder's Tushita Palace had been sealed for thousands of years, and Mahamayuri had never left.
Daoism, the Demon Race, and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus often had conflicts with one another.
However, against the Western Pure Lands, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, and the two great Skyfiends, the Daoism, Demon Race, and Buddhist heretics were still barely able to maintain their alliance.
If the three of them had done Mahamayuri a favor, they would naturally hope to win him over to their side to fight against Amitabha and the others.
Under such circumstances, they naturally hoped that Mahamayuri would ascend to the Dao Realm as soon as possible and as smoothly as possible.
There was no doubt that they should take action before the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon recovered.
The Dao Realm Mighty Figures were three against three. The Dao Faction also had the Immortal Execution Formation. There were many experts below the Dao Realm, and they had an absolute advantage. If they wanted to ensure that Mahamayuri reached the Dao Realm, their chances of winning were not small.
If the other side wanted to destroy it, even if they had other trump cards, it would be very difficult. They might as well hope that Lao Zi would suddenly have a sudden impulse and purposely go against Peacock.
Now, however, if Yan Zhaoge's senses were not wrong, the Mahamayuri had already obtained all the things that he needed, but had yet to take that final step. This meant that the old peacock was most likely standing on the other side.
He, the Amitabha Buddha, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, and the Primordial Heavenly Devil were all patiently waiting for the most confident moment.
That would be the moment when the Great Freedom Heavenly Devil returned.
"Only, I wonder who among the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord and the Primordial Heavenly Devil helped Kong Xuan?" Yan Zhaoge curled his lips, "In the past, during the Nine Underworlds Matter, Lu Ya and the Future Buddha gave him two sariras at once, and helped him gather all of them. What a waste."
Feng Yunsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at Yan Zhaoge, "Why are you acting so childish again? If Daoist Lu Ya succeeded in the past, wouldn't it be considered a waste?"
Yan Zhaoge shrugged.
"Unfortunately, we can't locate Kong Xuan's whereabouts. Otherwise, we could've taken action first." The smile on Feng Yunsheng's face disappeared. She pursed her lips and said, "If we don't wait until the very last moment, I'm afraid that we won't be able to stop him."
The Western Pure Lands had already sealed themselves. Even if they destroyed the Western Pure Lands, they wouldn't be able to do anything to the Amitabha Buddha.
Perhaps they could tempt the Primordial Heavenly Devil into attacking the Amitabha Buddha, allowing everyone to attack the Amitabha Buddha together.
However, the Primordial Heavenly Devil would also worry about being in the same boat. If the Amitabha Buddha fell, it would be his and the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord's turn next. If they were defeated one by one, they would become a joke.
Even if he had other intentions, he would only do so when the Great Freedom Heavenly Devil could rejoin the battle.
If the Elder Lord didn't make an appearance, the two Heavenly Devils would be considered the strongest in the world. By then, no matter what decision they made, they would be more confident.
"With the Great Freedom Heavenly Devil's return and Mahamayuri's attempt to ascend to the Dao Realm, this era's final outcome would be decided," muttered Feng Yunsheng.
With the help of the Amitabha Buddha, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, and the two Heavenly Devils, Mahamayuri ascended to the Dao Realm. With the five of them working together, the current balance would be broken once again.
Even if the two Heavenly Devils or Mahamayuri had their own plans, the outcome of the battle between the East Sovereign Taiyi and the Amitabha Buddha would become unpredictable once again.
Other than that …
Feng Yunsheng looked towards Yan Zhaoge, and Yan Zhaoge slowly nodded, "That's right. I'm afraid that the time for me to ascend to the Dao Realm would also be during this battle!"
"If I win this battle, the world's momentum would change because of me. If I lose, I'm afraid that I won't have the chance to start over again."
Yan Zhaoge's gaze was calm, and he said with a smile.
Feng Yunsheng's expression remained unchanged. She didn't say anything and merely pressed her hand on Yan Zhaoge's palm.
Yan Zhaoge held onto her hand. The couple looked at each other, and a smile appeared on their faces.
"Will senior apprentice-uncle Yan exit seclusion at that time as well?" asked Feng Yunsheng softly.
"By then, even if I can't think of it, I'll still be forced out by others," said Yan Zhaoge plainly.
Feng Yunsheng asked, "Are you done with your preparations?"
"There's still one more thing." Yan Zhaoge said, "I need to borrow the Green Duckweed Sword from Lady Wudang."
"You should meditate and recuperate. I'll go look for the Immortal Extermination Formation and Lady Wudang." Feng Yunsheng nodded, and her figure disappeared.
When she returned with the Green Duckweed Sword and handed it over to Yan Zhaoge, Yan Zhaoge started his own seclusion days.
In the following years, time flowed by like water. Day and night remained the same.
Everything seemed to be relatively peaceful. There wasn't much of a difference compared to the past few thousand years.
Until one day, this world's top-notch existences all felt that the world's creation was gradually trembling intensely.
The Five Elements of Creation – Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth – were all in chaos.
It wasn't just a single scene. Instead, the entire world's creation, the great thousand worlds, and the vast universe's Five Elements' foundations were all in chaos.
At this moment, Yan Zhaoge exited seclusion.
Feng Yunsheng was waiting for him outside.
Yan Zhaoge let out a long sigh, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "It's time."
