"My humble abode is simple and lacks any proper facilities. I can only offer you some ordinary tea, fellow Daoist."
Xu Xiao raised his hand and poured a cup of tea. The tea soup was clear and bright, and had a rich Spiritual Energy.
This is tea specially cultivated in the Great Tang World. Although it is just an ordinary variety, it is born with a touch of Spiritual Energy because it grows in a place rich in Spiritual Energy.
The Mahavairocana did not drink tea, but instead looked at Xu Xiao and went straight to the point.
"The things you want to know, I don't know much about either. I'll tell you everything. Will you leave now?"
"As you know, this world has a very powerful background. No matter who it is, if we offend the master of this place, things won't go well."
Xu Xiao calmly picked up his teacup, took a sip, and finally nodded under the anxious gaze of the Mahavairocana.
"I can agree to let you leave, but you have to take something with you. I'll take the Azure Dragon and the Qilin with me; you'll have to find replacements for them yourself."
"Furthermore, you must swear by the Great Dao that you will not conceal any information from me. Of course, I can also swear by the Great Dao that I will leave immediately after hearing the news."
"Can!"
Upon Mahavairocana breathed a sigh of relief, and then the two swore an oath to each other using the Great Dao.
The Great Dao Oath is an oath made at the cost of one's own development. If it is broken, one will suffer the backlash of the Great Dao on the path of ascension, with severe consequences.
After the Great Dao, in the unseen realm, received their vows, the two finally had a basis for an open and honest conversation.
The Mahavairocana lifted the cup of sacred tea on the table, took a sip, and then began to speak:
"I heard these things from elsewhere, but don't ask where. You're the first timer I've actually met."
"It's alright, please go ahead."
"The so-called time travelers are not actually a closely guarded secret among the Celestials; many powerful beings have some knowledge of these beings."
"After all, the great beings are embodied in the heavens, and there are very few things in these vast heavens that they do not know. The higher one stands, the more one knows."
"I first heard about the names of some time travelers from a powerful figure, and later, after making inquiries from various sources, I learned about some of the legends."
"Speaking of time travelers, we must mention a special world— the Real Universe!"
" The Real Universe? What is that?" Xu Xiao played the straight man well.
"That's a long story, but I'll give you a brief explanation." The Mahavairocana was pleased with Xu Xiao's support, and then slowly began to speak while sipping his tea:
"The so-called Real Universe is just a unique name. You should know that all worlds were born from the Endless Sea of mystery, right?"
' The Endless Sea? Isn't it the Sea of Worlds? It seems the two sides use different names.'
"I know." Xu Xiao nodded, feeling that he was about to learn something special again.
"In the Endless Sea, new worlds are born every moment, while some new worlds are destroyed. These worlds also grow, and some are born unique."
"The most unique type of world is one that can be invisibly influenced by or receive the events unfolding within the Endless Sea."
"These influences include the existence of so-called immortals, gods, and Buddhas, the shaping of basic concepts about life, and many other aspects."
"Some special individuals record these influences through various written or other unconventional means, thus forming the various stories and legends that have been passed down for generations."
"In a way, this is equivalent to an alternative method of comprehending the secrets of other worlds, allowing those in the Real Universe to understand the development of some worlds through various means."
"This is why those so-called time travelers can be so familiar with the evolution of the universe."
"Didn't you ask me before how Celestials knew that the process of world evolution was correct? How did they determine that there was no outside interference?"
"Actually, I can't be sure! No god or Buddha, unless they created the world and completely control the causal chain, can be 100% certain about the process."
"Everyone can only perceive the general trend of the world's evolution by tracing the lines of cause and effect or even by observing the direction of fortune; there's no way to achieve true control."
"In this respect, you transmigrators have a unique advantage."
The Mahavairocana envy; he had only encountered this by chance.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiao was also taken aback. So these gods and Buddhas really didn't know the plot?
"Is that so? You can't see through it? So you only took action because I disrupted the peace of the Wind and Cloud and you were afraid of attracting that person's attention?"
"Yes and no." Mahavairocana shook his head.
"Although I cannot see through the course of the world's development, I can see who the darlings of this world are, and I can roughly predict the future changes of this world. That's why I intervened after you caused chaos."
"Don't imagine gods and Buddhas to be so despicable. I can't see through them, but those at a higher level might."
Perhaps noticing the joy on Xu Xiao's face, the Mahavairocana added a sentence.
"Understood, understood. But since those beings know about the time travelers, why don't they try to hinder or conduct research on them?"
Xu Xiao asked this question, which was also what puzzled him.
As the First Firmament said, He had once cooperated with a transmigrator who possessed the power to travel between different worlds, but based on Xu Xiao's interactions with him, this guy was not exactly a good god.
If it were Xu Xiao himself, if he encountered such a special being, his first thought would definitely be to capture it, then study its characteristics, and even take its power for himself.
"You don't know?" Mahavairocana asked Xu Xiao in return.
"Know what?" Xu Xiao was completely bewildered. What did he need to know?
"Alright, it seems you really don't know. Fine, I'll explain it to you all at once." The Mahavairocana originally intended to keep everyone in suspense, but remembering that he had already made Great Dao Oath, he simply revealed everything he knew.
"In fact, the existence of transmigrators, because they can ignore strength and freely travel through world barriers that many powerful beings find difficult, has always been the focus of attention of these powerful beings."
"However, later, due to a mishap in persecuting the transmigrators, these individuals suffered a backlash after they grew up, which many powerful figures found troublesome."
"In particular, after research by many powerful beings, it has been found that the reason why transmigrators can travel between different worlds is almost entirely due to the inherent characteristics of Real Universe beings. Other beings are unable to plunder this power, so they stop."
"Of course, what truly forced some powerful figures to abandon this plan was something else entirely!"
"What's up?"
" The Transmigrators' Alliance is established!"
