With the humanoid bag containing the Maitreya Buddha, Yan Zhaoge clapped his hands together!
The bag deflated.
It also signified that another Dao Realm bigwig had perished today!
Today was destined to be a day engraved in history.
Four Dao Realm bigwigs perished, exceeding the total number of years of history.
Yan Zhaoge didn't continue staying in the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus.
Without the Future Buddha and the Humanoid Essence Stone, this place was destined to vanish into thin air. When the time came, someone from Daoism or someone else would come and settle things.
Yan Zhaoge took a step forward, and the white lotuses in front of him turned into green lotuses.
After arriving at the Western Pure Lands, Yan Zhaoge looked at the Amitabha Buddha, who had already returned. He said, "Daoist brother, please."
The Amitabha Buddha closed his eyes and sat on the green lotus. He didn't reveal any aura, as if he had perished.
During the previous calamity, he was besieged.
If Yan Zhaoge didn't attract everyone's attention, the Amitabha Buddha might have perished on the spot.
Although he managed to avoid this calamity, he was still extremely weakened.
Only, even at his peak, he couldn't rival the current Yan Zhaoge.
From this perspective, all of them had lost today.
The Amitabha Buddha no longer cared about the Future Buddha, Maitreya, and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus' current situation.
After being gravely injured, he had already lost the confidence of transcending.
Moreover, even if the Maitreya perished, and he wasn't injured, the decision of who would transcend in this era would no longer be fought between him and the Eastern Sovereign Taiyi. Instead, it would fall into someone else's hands.
Without Yan Zhaoge expressing his stance, the Maitreya Buddha's existence wasn't important to the Amitabha Buddha anymore.
The Amitabha Buddha could guess why the person in front of him came here.
However, this wasn't something he could decide anymore.
After greeting the Amitabha Buddha, Yan Zhaoge waved his hand towards the Western Pure Lands.
The green lotuses separated into two, and a towering tree appeared within the Blessed Lands of Buddhism. It was lush and verdant, and boundless spirit qi filled the air as if it was the essence of the world.
Fruits could be vaguely seen amidst the green leaves on the tree branches. each of them resembled a baby.
It took another three thousand years for it to bloom and another three thousand years for it to bear fruit. It would take another three thousand years for it to ripen and could only be eaten after ten thousand years. However, if a person ate one, they could live for forty-seven thousand years. Each time, they would bear no more than thirty fruits. It was the spiritual seed, the ginseng fruit tree that originally belonged to Zhen Yuanzi.
During the Great Calamity that year, Zhen Yuanzi had been invited by the Purple Tenuity Emperor to the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace to investigate the matter of the Jade Great Heavenly Lord's mysterious actions. In the end, the Jade Great Heavenly Lord had just happened to be attempting to illuminate Daoism, ascending to the Dao realm through the external dao of incense.
In the end, in the great battle, the Jade Great Heavenly Lord had still succeeded. Following that, the Future Buddha attacked, and the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace was destroyed. The Great Calamity descended, and the various powers all participated in it, each taking what they needed as they swept through the world.
Zhenyuanzi perished at the hands of Great Heavenly Venerate Jade Emperor, who was also known as the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate. His ginseng fruit tree also entered the Western Pure Lands.
Yan Zhaoge didn't manage to find the Ginseng Fruit Tree after annihilating the Immortal Court thousands of years ago. Today, he came to the Western Pure Lands to look for it.
He waved his hand, and the Ginseng Fruit Tree flew up from the ground and landed on his hand. Although it was out of the ground, it was not damaged in the slightest. It was still green as if Yan Zhaoge's palm was the best fertile soil.
Yan Zhaoge then pointed towards the green lotuses.
Within the Western Pure Lands, several figures of light soared into the sky.
They were some Buddhist Bhantes. Their bodies were shrouded in Glazed Buddha lights.
Currently, Yan Zhaoge had picked them out. Some of them had their palms pressed together, and their expressions were calm. Some of them were filled with anger, and some of them were filled with fear and unease.
These Buddhist Bhantes were all people who had participated in the Great Calamity.
Many of them had already been buried by the river of time. However, those who had participated in the Great Calamity could still be found.
With Yan Zhaoge's current strength, he was very familiar with the details of the Great Calamity.
Yan Zhaoge was very clear about who had participated in the Western Pure Lands, and who hadn't. There was no possibility of him missing out.
Now, it was time to settle the score.
Guanyin Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva stayed out of the matter, and now they are still sitting on the green lotus.
Looking at those who were picked out by Yan Zhaoge, the Bodhisattva of Avalokitesvara and the Samantabhadra Bodhisattva's eyes were filled with pity.
As for the Dipankara Ancient Buddha, he sat within a clump of Buddha lights and appeared in front of Yan Zhaoge.
"Someone really wants to meet you," said Yan Zhaoge plainly.
The Dipankara Ancient Buddha's expression remained unchanged.
During the Great Calamity, he was deeply involved in it. In fact, he could even be considered as one of the leading figures.
Now that the monkey and Yan Zhaoge had ascended to the Dao Realm, Daoism's decline had turned into prosperity. The day of settling the score had arrived.
There weren't just a few Daoism's people who wanted to settle the score with him.
Without a doubt, Nezha was the first one who wanted to settle the score.
And Nezha wouldn't be the last.
"Dao Lord above, may you have immeasurable longevity." The Dipankara Ancient Buddha's expression was calm as he bowed towards Yan Zhaoge.
"Let's go." Yan Zhaoge extended his hand and grabbed the Dipankara Ancient Buddha and the others.
"I didn't expect this. I didn't expect the Great Heavenly Lord to have such a plan." The Dipankara Ancient Buddha looked at Yan Zhaoge with a complex expression.
He was one of the few who knew of the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord's true identity.
However, there were many things that exceeded his expectations.
The more he looked at Yan Zhaoge, the more he felt it.
Yan Zhaoge ignored the Dipankara Ancient Buddha's sigh. In the next moment, he appeared in the Astro Mountains Starry Seas.
His goal for coming here was the same as when he went to the Western Pure Lands.
Given the situation back then, even the monkey couldn't speak up for the demons now. At most, he wouldn't help either side.
The Eastern Monarch Taiyi quietly watched Yan Zhaoge take away the portion of the Demon Race that had been involved in the Great Calamity.
Yan Zhaoge met his gaze calmly.
Now, he was merely collecting some interest. Yan Zhaoge had plenty of ways to deal with the Eastern Sovereign Taiyi and the Amitabha Buddha, the two people who had truly caused the birth of the heretic dao.
When Yan Zhaoge returned to the Daoism Heavens, the others were already waiting there.
"May the Lord of Dao enjoy immeasurable longevity and blessings!" Regardless of their cultivation bases or seniority, everyone bowed towards Yan Zhaoge in unison at this moment.
This bow was not only to show respect for Yan Zhaoge's supremacy over the Dao Mirror, it was also to show respect for Yan Zhaoge's rise. It had shown that orthodox Daoism had returned to its flourishing age, truly ruling over the heavens once more and presiding over the Nine Heavens!
"You are too polite, everyone. Today, we belong to the same path," Yan Zhaoge returned a half-salute to them.
He first went to the newly developed Five Manor Locale and planted the Ginseng Fruit.
"May the Lord of Dao enjoy immeasurable longevity and blessings!" The Five Manor Locale's current Locale Master brought along everyone and bowed towards Yan Zhaoge.
Then, after handing the Dipankara Ancient Buddha and the others over to others, Yan Zhaoge came in front of Yan Di.
Xue Chuqing was also there.
Currently, Xue Chuqing was looking at Yan Zhaoge with a complicated expression.
Other than being injured when she was still a baby, the last time she had reunited with Yan Zhaoge was in the World beyond Worlds many years later.
To her, the young man in front of her was her child.
However, she understood that this was different for Yan Di.
Yan Di was also quietly looking at Yan Zhaoge.
Currently, the fatigue within his eyes hadn't dissipated. Instead, it became heavier.
To him, once he had made up his mind, he would no longer hesitate.
However, this time was different.
Yan Zhaoge raised his hand, and a faint shadow flew out from his hand.
When Yan Zhaoge took out the Triratna Jade Scepter and shattered the fake body he created in the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace during his second life, that body contained such a shadow.
The shadow was absorbed by the Triratna Jade Scepter. Afterwards, the Triratna Jade Scepter fused with Yan Zhaoge, helping him ascend to the Dao Realm and fusing with him.
However, Yan Zhaoge could naturally separate the inverted shadow stored within.
Before Yan Zhaoge made his move, he had already guessed it.
After all, that body was the closest to his current life.
Exchanging the two would be the most suitable and suitable.
"Although it's been a few thousand years, the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord had done some special treatment on it, which allowed it to be preserved until now," said Yan Zhaoge softly.
Yan Di extended his hand and received the shadow. Xue Chuqing's lips moved, but no sound came out.
For them, reconstructing their bodies wasn't a difficult task.
What was difficult was everything that had happened before their eyes. Where should their family go from here?
"Master, Master's wife, I'll be leaving first." After a long time, a smile appeared on Yan Zhaoge's face, and he spoke first.
"Don't call me master," said Yan Di decisively.
Yan Zhaoge looked at him calmly.
"Let me think about it, let me think about it …" Yan Di, who had always been straightforward and domineering, muttered after remaining silent for a long time.
Xue Chuqing shook her head slowly and firmly towards Yan Zhaoge. Although she didn't say anything, she was obviously dissatisfied with how Yan Zhaoge addressed her.
Yan Zhaoge nodded towards her, and then looked at Yan Di. After remaining silent for a while, he smiled and turned around to leave.
As he was walking, someone held his hand from the side.
Yan Zhaoge turned his head and saw Feng Yunsheng's face.
The woman's face carried a warm smile, and their gazes met.
"Much better than I expected." The smile on Yan Zhaoge's face was a little more intense than before.
"Every day is better than the last." Feng Yunsheng said with a smile.
Yan Zhaoge looked towards the sky, "Yeah …"
His gaze traversed through the layers of void and scanned the entire universe.
He could see Suo Mingzhang as usual. Every time he returned from a trip, he would continue living in seclusion. For thousands of years, he would accompany the Canghua Divine Tree.
The man and the tree faced each other as if they could stay together for eternity.
It could be seen that Yang Jian, who had always been carefree and did not care about external things, had specially set up an incense table on this special day when the Dao Sect regained control of the universe. He invited the remains of his master, Perfected Yu Ding, and solemnly paid his respects.
He could see Gao Qingxuan leading Yu Ye, Long Xueji, Gao Xuebo, Gao Qing, and the others to pay their respects to the Vine Sovereign – Li Ying, who had perished thousands of years ago.
He could see his sect's old Chief, Yuan Zhengfeng, offering incense to his master, the Broad Creed Mountain's senior grand master in the Eight Extremities Worlds – Zhan Xilou, who had perished at a young age.
He could see Shi Jun accompanying his mother, Ying Yuzhen, in picking herbs. Beside them was a young woman with a picturesque appearance. She was Shi Jun's wife …
Although many existences continued to age and disappear, more and more new existences were born.
Feng Yunsheng asked, "What do you plan to do next? Assist the Great Sacred Ancestor in transcending?"
"That's what I plan to do," answered Yan Zhaoge.
"I wonder if the Great Sage can emerge victorious after finding the Tathagata Buddha?" Feng Yunsheng thought to herself.
"The Great Sage doesn't care about winning or not. He's determined to fight this battle, and he won't just let it go." Yan Zhaoge said, "The reason why the Great Sage is the Great Sage is because of his willpower and determination."
"Indeed." Feng Yunsheng's thoughts wandered. She looked at Yan Zhaoge and asked, "What about your own transcendence? Do you have any ideas?"
"Even if I do, I still don't wish to leave." Yan Zhaoge said, "Besides, I don't have the time to think about such things."
Upon hearing the latter half of his sentence, Feng Yunsheng couldn't help but feel curious, "Then, what are you thinking about now?"
"As long as the other party's form and soul aren't extinguished, the Dao Ancestor can retrieve the person from the reincarnation." Yan Zhaoge leisurely said, "If no other Dao Realm cultivators interfere."
