What do you want with my junior brother?
Having verified his identity, Great Emperor Zhenwu withdrew his divine form and threw the waist token back.
The laws of Heavenly Dao on the token cannot be faked. Even Quasi-Sage cannot use Hongjun's name to deceive people under the control of the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao of Heaven is my Way. Beings like Hongjun are the true controllers of the Great Chiliocosm, which is completely different from Xu Xiao's control over the Heavenly Dao, which he obtained by taking shortcuts through World-Crossing Gate.
Even Sage, in this Journey to the West Great World, must bow down and be subservient to the ruler.
"Of course I'm helping him. I'm here to say hello and, by the way, ask if he's interested in joining the Transmigrators' Alliance," Li Feng said with a smile.
Zhenwu nodded, then quietly transmitted his voice to Xu Xiao, "Junior brother, the opportunity has come. The decision is yours."
Zhenwu had spoken with Xu Xiao about the Transmigrators' Alliance several times. It was a formidable force, capable of commanding respect from powerful figures across countless realms.
After all, these guys can roam freely across countless worlds and reap many different opportunities; their growth rate is astonishing.
Especially after several transmigrators proposed to join forces, the Transmigrators' Alliance was officially established, giving them a place in the myriad worlds and making them renowned.
Of course, hearing about their reputation is one thing, but actually dealing with them is a first for both Zhenwu and Xu Xiao.
"Could you tell me what the Transmigrators' Alliance is all about? I don't know anything about it, and it wouldn't be wise to join rashly," Xu Xiao, looking at Li Feng.
Overall, the other person's aura didn't bother him, and the fact that the other person claimed to be a transmigrator also subtly made Xu Xiao feel more favorably toward him.
'I wonder where they traveled from. Could they have traveled from Earth like me, or something else?'
With the idea of meeting someone from the same hometown in mind, Xu Xiao didn't know whether the other party had good intentions or bad intentions, so he could only listen and see.
The Transmigrators' Alliance is a formidable organization, whether described by Zhenwu or by the Mahavairocana Tathagata of the Wind and Cloud World. If there were no constraints, it wouldn't be impossible to join.
"Of course, you definitely need to understand our organization's original intentions and benefits before you can make a decision." Li Feng smiled slightly, and then began to explain.
" The Transmigrators' Alliance was originally formed by a group of transmigrators who were being hunted and killed by people from various worlds..."
"From being universally reviled, to being protected by those who ascend to the highest realms, and then to those who endure calamities and schemes to become the Great Chiliocosm Sovereign..."
"We are a mutually beneficial organization with no rigid requirements. Our only requirement is to offer small assistance to our fellow citizens whenever possible..."
"Of course, these words may sound grand and empty, and seem like just clichés, but you'll gradually discover that we are truly a very good organization."
"No, to be precise, if you're willing to join, you'll soon witness the organization's power."
"You've caused quite a bit of trouble in this world. If you join the organization, all of this will be properly taken care of."
After Li Feng finished speaking, he looked at Xu Xiao with great interest.
Xu Xiao pondered silently, not rushing to answer.
'The conditions sound very lenient, with not many mandatory obligations, and you even have the protection and help of fellow transmigrators. But are there really so many freebies?'
As a cultivator who practices the Dao of Cause and Effect and then proves the Dao of Variables, Xu Xiao knows better than anyone how taboo it is for high-level cultivators to get involved in the cause and effect of others.
The Transmigrators' Alliance model might sound like just a group sticking together for warmth, but according to them, once you get involved, you take on the karma of others, making the relationship even closer than that of a master and disciple.
This... does not conform to the behavioral logic of most practitioners who only seek to improve themselves.
Xu Xiao's own Great Dao of Cause and Effect was rapidly unfolding, but he didn't notice anything amiss.
'But if I give up now, won't I miss out on an opportunity?'
'Fine, I'm leaving soon anyway, so I'll just agree for now. If things get really bad, I'll just hide in another world; I don't believe they can keep bothering me.'
"What do you mean by 'confession'?" Xu Xiao asked.
"Haha, you'll find out soon enough." Li Feng smiled faintly, which was his agreement.
Western Ox Continent
To be precise, it can now only be called Xiniu Banhezhou.
A huge, straight slash cleaved the entire Western Ox Continent in two, splitting it into two worlds.
Countless Buddhist Sect believers died in this devastating attack, while the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas they once worshipped watched from the sidelines, none daring to step forward.
There was no way around it; the three Sage were engaged in a magical duel right in the center, and no one dared to interfere.
With the imposing stance of Yuanshi Tianzun, Pangu Banner in his left hand and the jade ruyi in his right, he utterly Jieyin and Zhunti, leaving them Zhunti disoriented. If these Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were to join the fray, they would be utterly destroyed in an instant.
"Senior brother, please stop your supernatural powers! If you continue fighting, the mortal realm will suffer!"
At this moment, Jieyin and Zhunti Kusho and could only plead while enduring the pain.
"Who's your senior brother? Take this!"
The Pangu Banner struck out, causing the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and the Azure Lotus Treasure Flag that enveloped the two to tremble incessantly. The thick Buddhist light and treasures that used to entwine them had all disappeared, and the Azure Lotus Treasure Flag, renowned for its unparalleled defense, was now covered in cracks.
The Pangu Banner, blessed by the Sage, would have been smashed to pieces long ago if it weren't for the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and the Azure Lotus Treasure Flag being both Innate magic treasures.
This shows just one aspect of the power of the Yuanshi!
"If this world is destroyed, I'll just accept the punishment from Heavenly Dao. You two are bullying the weak; if I don't teach you a lesson today, people will think that my Chan Sect is weak and can be bullied by anyone!"
Yuanshi Tianzun didn't care about any of that. The Pangu Banner in his hand became more and more ferocious with each strike. With the blessing of his own Great Dao, he suppressed Jieyin and Zhunti.
If the opponent hadn't directly used the accumulated merits and vows of Buddhism over countless years to bless the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and the Azure Lotus Treasure Flag, their Innate Numinous Treasure would probably have been destroyed long ago, and the Great Dao would have been directly whipped by the Pangu Banner.
"Senior brother, is it really necessary to go to such lengths for a junior?"
"Senior brother, this junior ruined our Shakya Sect plans first and even killed one of our Arhat. No matter what, he was in the wrong first!"
"Heh! I don't care about right or wrong, I only know that you two are shameless enough to attack a junior, so today I will punish you properly!"
The Yuanshi Tianzun was too lazy to talk to the two troublemakers who loved to stir up trouble and take advantage of others. He wielded the Pangu Banner with increasing speed, pressing down on Jieyin and Zhunti, who were struggling Zhunti hold on.
At this moment, even the two supreme gods of Western Shakya Sect couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Was it really not worth it to provoke Yuanshi just to kill a Daluo Yuanshi?
Who would have thought that the Yuanshi Tianzun would actually make things difficult for them over something like this, making things difficult for an extraterrestrial demon who wasn't even a member of the Daoist Sect!
This is absolutely outrageous!
The Journey to the Westward Calamity was a calamity ordained by Heavenly Dao. What's wrong with us taking advantage of this calamity to gain some benefits and annoy the Heavenly Court and the Daoist Sect?
The two men didn't see anything wrong with taking advantage of others when they could, throwing tantrums when they couldn't, or even bullying the weak.
They would only think that Yuanshi Tianzun was making a mountain out of a molehill, and might even plan to file a complaint with the Purple Cloud Palace after they survived this ordeal.
