Taoist Master Xuanhuang

The deities of different realms can sense each other, and once an anchor point is established, they can exchange information with each other.

Moreover, the boundaries are not afraid of establishing and anchoring such relationships with each other.

This is because although there are differences in strength between different realms, a realm cannot devour another realm; it can only actively merge with another realm.

Even if a realm is a top-tier realm, it is impossible for it to devour a micro-realm.

This is the rule bestowed upon them by the Heavenly Way, and they cannot devour each other.

What Heaven desires is diversity, various divided realms, not a 'waste' that can be infinitely merged.

In the eyes of Heaven, infinite fusion is nothing but waste.

The main world is a much larger world, so why should the created realms be merged with each other?
Even if they were to merge again, they would not reach the level of the main world. Having another world that is inferior to the main world would be of no use whatsoever.

It would be better if each realm had its own characteristics, and these characteristics would be paths that could deal with different kinds of strange occurrences.

After all, the reason why the realm was created was to deal with the strange and unpredictable.

Therefore, the sacred within a boundary is not afraid of anchoring and connecting with other boundaries.

It is not afraid of being devoured by large realms, unless its own realm actively merges with others.

Active integration is different; it involves the original consciousness of one realm actively integrating into the original consciousness of another realm. There is no other way.

Once anchored, the boundary field resonates, allowing them to sense and transmit messages to each other.

Previously, this was how communication between realms was achieved.

Suddenly, many deities from various realms, because of their own experiences, thought of the same thing.

That's eerie.

The supernatural are the masters of the first era; they were all born to deal with the supernatural.

Since the three great gods have set their sights on me, I can't just willingly offer my neck to die, can I?

That's impossible. If you want me to die, then I'll fight back.

They quickly thought of the bizarre, and the environment in which a bizarre fourth-tier king could be born.

If the strange entity hadn't been suppressed, even the secret realm where it was born would have been suppressed into a secret swamp. Otherwise, a fourth-tier king-level strange entity would surely have been born on the land of Xia Kingdom at this moment.

The barbarians outside the Xia Kingdom have already sensed the strange power of the fourth-tier True King level.

To create trouble for those who want to kill him, whether they are saints or true cultivators.

Only by creating enough trouble can you get their attention; don't fixate on the sacred.

……

The Alliance Against Heaven.

You read that right, it's called the Anti-Heaven Alliance, a very chuunibyou (delusional) name.

Don't misunderstand, it's not an alliance established by the divine. The divine knows how it was born; it is simply a divine being nurtured by heaven and earth.

How dare we call ourselves the Alliance Against Heaven?

The Heaven-Defying Alliance is an alliance formed by a group of small world sects, clans, and other forces.

Their heavens had long been shattered, merged and swallowed up by a more powerful heaven.

Moreover, after arriving in this main world, they were given no way to survive. They were looked down upon by the saints, harmed by the supernatural, and despised by the true cultivators. Even some of their former clansmen, after joining the great alliance of true cultivators, looked down on them.

It’s so hard.

Let's just rebel against it and call it the Anti-Heaven Alliance.

We must restore the righteous spirit of heaven and earth, and reshape our understanding of heaven and earth. We are not pitiful creatures that no one likes; we also need freedom and dignity.

And so the Alliance Against Heaven was born.

Sects from various other small worlds have formed such an alliance.

Long ago, they were allied with the Holy One, planning to pledge allegiance to the Holy One after His arrival, or rather, to rise to power with the help of His Holy One's abilities.

I wouldn't dare say I'm on equal footing with true cultivators, but at least I should be able to protect myself.

This was their wish when they formed the Alliance Against Heaven.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

The wish was good, but the times were changing too fast, too fast for them to keep up.

The Holy One, whom they once thought was incomparably powerful, was also hunted down by the true cultivators. And this was not just a slogan; they truly had the ability to kill the Holy One.

The actions of the Evil Suppression Department are still fresh in my mind.

It must be said that the Zhenxie Department's killing of the seven great realms' deities has had a significant impact, and the effects are still spreading.

This has led to the fact that the Anti-Heaven Alliance, which originally wanted to have a place here, now wants to escape from the organization.

I thought it was a very promising organization.

Therefore, many forces that make up the Alliance Against Heaven want to have a place in it, and it would be best if they could lead the organization.

This has led to fierce competition, and so far no leader has emerged who is universally accepted.

There are only nine deputy leaders, but no leader. No one wants anyone else to take the top position, so they hinder each other at every turn.

Looking back now, it's fortunate that I didn't become the leader of the alliance.

Otherwise, I would be the one who can't eat or sleep right now.

After all, once you become the leader of the alliance, the greatest responsibility of the Holy Alliance against cultivators falls on the leader.

Now everyone wants to disband the alliance, fearing they'll be tainted by karma; wouldn't becoming the alliance leader be courting death?

"What's going on? Didn't we agree not to contact each other? Why are we having a meeting?"

Deep in the mountains, in a huge natural cave, people hurried by.

Everyone was very well hidden, not wanting anyone to know who they were.

They couldn't refuse to come, and the message they were conveying, though called a message, was more like a threat.

Those who do not come will bear the consequences; the list will be made public.

This isn't a message to call a meeting; it's a threat that I absolutely have to come.

The people who rushed over were angry and frustrated.

Why did we even form this ridiculous alliance in the first place? It's called the "God-Defying Alliance," it's absurd, and a bad name like that means no future.

They all regretted their previous decisions.

Who could have imagined the world would develop so quickly?

When this alliance and the Holy Union were first formed, people didn't see it that way.

Everyone thought it was a promising career and wanted to reach a high position.

Now it has become a crisis and a burden.

If the true cultivators found out, if they knew that their forces and the Holy Ones had joined forces to scheme against them and planned to use the Holy Ones' abilities to deal with them, they would be in trouble.

Despite the Lord of Dao's compassion, opening up the Heavenly Dao to allow them to cultivate as well, he did not do so.

But is that true? People always learn more after being subjected to harsh lessons.

They were very proud before, as each of their factions was one of the top forces in their respective worlds, with a very deep family heritage.

I dare not say that my lineage is as strong as the Dao Master's three great laws.

They had already figured out the fundamentals of the three major laws long ago, and not everyone can learn them.

To learn such methods, one must at least possess the aptitude to learn these three major methods.

If one's talent isn't sufficient, it's impossible to learn such an invincible technique.

As an ancient cultivation force, they understand this better than the cultivators of the main world.

Even the most advanced techniques within one's own sect require certain qualifications. Different qualifications allow one to learn different techniques; without the right qualifications, one cannot learn advanced techniques at all.

Once they realized this, they felt that true cultivation was nothing to be afraid of. Even if you have the three invincible techniques of the Dao Lord, so what? They're fine as a starting point and foundation, but not as a way to advance further.

In fact, they are quite right.

The true cultivators are indeed progressing as they expected. Those who can enter the second-level Profound Realm all have their own methods.

Except for a few who have a very close relationship with the Dao Master and whose karma is very heavy.

These people don't need to create their own laws at the second level; the cause and effect with the Dao Lord can still push them to continue learning the three invincible laws.

Apart from these few individuals, all other cultivators who entered the second stage of the Profound Realm had forged their own paths.

Seeing this trend, and coincidentally, the three great gods completed the Heavenly Dao, so they were also able to cultivate.

So his ambition grew, even inflated, in a short time.

I believe my environment is roughly the same, even if it's not as good as the Dao Lord's Qingyun Holy Land, but my experience is enough to make up for the difference.

They are a powerful force that has existed for hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years.

With so much experience over such a long period of time, shouldn't we be able to make up for any shortcomings in the environment?

That's what they think.

From their perspective, it's not an exaggeration.

After all, before the myriad worlds merged and before the extraordinary experts of each world attained enlightenment, there were fourth-order kings and even fifth-order venerables in their sects.

It is a living, breathing entity, not something that has been passed down through generations.

The existence of a fifth-tier Venerable means that such a force is not in danger of extinction, and even if it were, it would be very difficult; a fourth-tier Venerable is immortal.

Even those at the fifth rank can claim to be immortal, even if it's a false immortality.

But at least the Earthly Soul merged into the True Body, achieving a part of the Soul's immortality.

The existence of immortal beings suggests the depth of this power's accumulation.

It's nothing more than the fusion and transformation of all realms, but the legacy and experience left behind are still valid.

With such confidence, once the three great gods complete the Heavenly Dao, they believe they can quickly catch up with the true cultivators.

Their aspirations were admirable, but they had no chance to rise up, as the true cultivators had been suppressing them.

They then thought of uniting with the divine.

This kept the true cultivators preoccupied, allowing them to develop stealthily and slowly catch up with them.

Even if you don't replace them, you should at least be on equal footing with true cultivators. Don't look down on them like this. Even if you are the direct descendants of the Dao Lord, it's still not acceptable.

Moreover, it is only because of the Lord of the Dao's benevolence that we were able to cultivate, thus completing the Heavenly Dao.

To put it more broadly, we are all cultivators under the Dao Lord system; we are all one family, so how wonderful it would be if we worked together.

They want to achieve this kind of environment.

That's how the long-ago union with the divine came about.

But now...

Damn it, a saint suddenly became possessed and infected by demons, who can he reason with?
Are you expecting me to oppose genuine cultivation? You've fallen into depravity!
Are they being threatened and killed by true cultivators?
Furthermore, since true cultivators have the ability to kill saints, they are afraid.

Therefore, although the Anti-Heaven Alliance still exists, it is already dead in name only.

No one wants to be associated with them; everyone wants to distance themselves from them.

I thought that was the end of it, but unexpectedly, a piece of news shattered this 'deliberate forgetting'.

They were forced to come and hold a group gathering.

It's fine if they don't come; we'll expose their previous identity as the Heaven-Defying Alliance to the True Cultivator, so they can target them.

They dared not not come, so they all arrived, covered up tightly and grumbling.

"Who summoned us? What do you mean by this, Grand Alliance Leader?"

Everyone was covered up tightly, so names were practically unnecessary.

"Don't talk nonsense. When did I become the Grand Alliance Leader? Don't slander me. I'm just one of the first nine Vice Alliance Leaders. We're all the same. There's no such thing as a Grand Alliance Leader. We're all equal."

The one who was called the Grand Alliance Leader panicked.

Is this a case of shifting blame onto someone?
Are you trying to frame me, an honest man?

I am just the first deputy leader, definitely not the grand leader.

They resolutely deny it.

"Say what you will, you're the first one anyway. Tell me, why are you threatening us? If this gets exposed, you won't be able to escape, will you?"

Others don't care what he says, but they keep pressing him.

"Alas, fellow Daoists, I have no choice. It's not that I wanted to gather you all, but the Holy Ones contacted me. If I don't agree, they will expose our past plans. What can I do? Moreover, these Holy Ones are extremely disgusting; they have photos of us."

"Let's call him Grand Alliance Leader for now," he said with a pained expression.

"What? The Holy One is threatening us? And there's even a photograph of it?"

Everyone panicked immediately.

They all fell into deep thought.

In deep thought, a series of images unfolded, and I felt a surge of confidence and power within myself—

[Heh, just a bunch of lucky ones protected by the Dao Lord. What do they know about cultivation? Our lineage has lasted for millions of years, and our fourth-tier True Kings have never been interrupted. We are the teachers; we need to teach the cultivators of the main world how to cultivate.]

[These are just children passing through a bustling market with gold. If it weren't for the Dao Lord, they would all be a bunch of pitiful wretches. They suddenly gained the ability to cultivate, and coupled with the Dao Lord's benevolence, they developed arrogant and conceited personalities. They need to be educated. To be honest... these true cultivators are really no good, they need...]

[Hmph, what four super powers and eight major powers? I think it needs to be changed. I'll XX...]

【…】

Suddenly, they were drenched in sweat, remembering their grand ambitions from the past.

These may have all been photographed.

"Despicable! How could you do this? What kind of holiness is this?"

Some couldn't hold back any longer; perhaps he was once very 'heroic'.

"Exactly, what kind of sacred thing is this? It's worse than a lowly person. They actually dared to take pictures of us. It's despicable and shameless."

"yes……"

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and great dissatisfaction.

The so-called Grand Alliance Leader said, "Now you know why the message I sent to you was a threat, right? I didn't want to either, but if I don't contact you, the deity who threatened me will expose us."

The so-called leader of the alliance said aggrievedly, hoping to gain sympathy.

"Why did they summon us?"

The group calmed down, realizing that anger wouldn't solve anything and that they needed to work on their own.

In the words of beings from the main world, this is a landmine that could be detonated at any moment, and once it explodes, everyone involved will be reduced to ashes.

It is a crisis that needs to be resolved immediately.

"They have something they need us to do. After we do it, they promise us that everything before will be wiped clean," the so-called Grand Alliance Leader said.

"Hmph, trying to fool children, how can you believe them?"

"Exactly, do you think we're fools? If there's something fishy going on with us, why would we just give up like that?"

Everyone looked like they understood.

"I don't believe it either, but the offer they made was very generous."

When the leader of the alliance said.

"Oh?" Everyone was taken aback.
