Qi Shiyun and Lianshan Xin exchanged a glance, both confirming the same thing:
The Heavenly Diviner's Heavenly Secret Arts really did have something to them.
But he had indeed yet to divine the true secret.
Just then, Tian Ji asked in confusion, "Wait, that's not right. Master, didn't you tell me our lineage came from Destiny Insight, one of the Six Divine Powers passed down orally in the Demon Cult? The first Vein Master used Destiny Insight as a foundation, supplemented by his profound Buddhist learning, to create the Heavenly Diviner Lineage's Way of Divination-Future Fruit. How did the Dragon Palace's Turtle Chancellor get involved?"
Hearing Tian Ji say this stirred something in the Heavenly Queen.
That was also the origin of the Heavenly Diviner Lineage as she understood it.
"Old Tian, are the Nine Heavens' records of the Heavenly Diviner Lineage's origins false?" the Heavenly Queen asked.
"Of course they're true."
"Then what's going on?"
"Who said the Turtle Chancellor couldn't cultivate Destiny Insight? Maitreya Bodhisattva was a sacred being of antiquity. Back then, he joined forces with Shakyamuni Buddha to sweep away the demons and establish the Buddhist kingdom of Spirit Mountain, commanding countless elite soldiers and mighty generals. I suspect the Dragon Palace's Turtle Chancellor has some connection to Maitreya Bodhisattva too. He might even be a descendant of the divine turtle who served under Maitreya Bodhisattva."
"Huh?"
Lianshan Xin asked Maitreya in surprise once again, "My son, were you really that mighty back then? Wasn't Shakyamuni Buddha the one who won Spirit Mountain's foundations?"
Maitreya flew into a rage. "Of course Shakyamuni and I won them together."
Lianshan Xin blinked.
He had thought Maitreya and Shakyamuni joining forces was like saying Adou and Zhao Yun had charged in and out seven times together at Changban Slope.
