Chapter 97: The Void Alliance

And the illusory realm of Tai Xu will be finally completed this time.
In the future, there will be a Tai Xu Dao Lord who sits in the Tai Xu Heaven and overlooks everything in the Tai Xu Illusory Realm.
She will reign supreme, treating all with impartiality.
In the future, there will be some phantoms participating in the management, evolution, and repair of the Tai Xu Mirage Realm, serving all Tai Xu practitioners.

They have their own loves, hates, passions, memories and thoughts. They will continue to explore, research, and live. However, all actions within the Illusory Realm of Taixu must follow the Taixu Iron Law.
Of course, there are still some processes needed.
A being infinitely close to transcendence, wanting to completely integrate into the illusory realm of vast emptiness, is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight.
Such a great creation, like the vast illusory realm, to truly achieve greatness and be eternally established, would not come into being in an instant.
All the powerful figures who came to break through the mountain barriers became protectors at this time, not allowing any external factors to interfere.
The Milky Way, transformed by the void, drifted in the air, like a silent scroll of colorful silk.
He will eventually be recorded in history.
The grand master of the Legalist school, Han Shen Tu, raised his hand at this moment, using his index finger as a brush and writing in mid-air.
Every stroke, every line conceals the profound Tao. Every bend, every hook depicts the annals of Spring and Autumn.
This is a profound and complex character, "Dao," which cannot be described by lines nor captured by the eyes. It can only be felt through experiencing "Dao."
>
"Absolutely fair, absolutely open, absolutely just".
The iron painting, silver hook, never changes.
>
This is the Legalist code!
And at the same time, all the powerful figures present pointed their fingers from afar, imprinting the mark of their respective powers upon that extraordinary spiritual Dao character.
Han Shentou flicked his index finger, sending the Dao character into the starry heavens.
This decree was personally written by Han Shentu, the ruler of Guitian Palace. It was signed by the six major hegemonic nations and ancient sects of this world, and will be forever inscribed in the Illusory Realm of Tai Xu, restricting the Lord of Tai Xu Dao.
Or, more precisely, the supreme master of the Taixu realm, who is omnipotent within the illusionary realm of Taixu, accepts this decree and makes it the core principle.
>
Without this decree, all parties would not be able to fully trust the Heavenly Master of Emptiness. For things of great significance, "trust" should not exist at all.
Danger must always be kept in a cage, the wise do not test human nature.
The thunderclouds looming over the sky, rose higher and higher, as if becoming very distant.
The galaxy, spanning the vast expanse of the sky, still flows silently.
The world represented by the illusory realm seems to exist truly, within arm's reach. Like a dream, it's enchanting and thought-provoking.
"Alright," Han Shen said in a calm voice. "It takes time for the legal decrees to take effect, and it also takes time for the Taixu Illusionary Realm to ascend. The Taixu Sect has already been separated, so it's time to discuss what to do with the Taixu Illusionary Realm. Let me first speak on behalf of the Sanxing Palace – the Taixu Illusionary Realm is an illusionary realm belonging to all under heaven. It should belong to everyone. Even though we are here now, we must consider the entire world."
As expected of a renowned master of the Legalist school who penned the classic treatise "Struggle for Power," he aims to balance the influence of the Six Great Hegemons right from the start.
"As the dean of Mugu Academy, Chen Pu said: 'If we hide in the illusory realm of Taixu, how are we different from the Taixu Sect The wise do not do so. We should be open and honest, and discuss this matter with everyone.'"
The general consensus among major powers is actually relatively unified. There isn't a single one that wants to see the Six Great Powers further increase their worldly influence.
Han Shentu wanted to return the authority of the Illusory Realm to the people. To Chen Pu, he even wanted to open up the right to discuss this matter. The simple reason is that a discussion led by those in power will inevitably result in outcomes that favor those in power.
Just like the previous discussions on separating the Tai Xu Sect from the Tai Xu Mirage Realm, no one has come forward to say that the Tai Xu Sect shouldn't be separated – after all, the Tai Xu Sect didn't participate in the discussion!
There is no need for representatives from other sects to say any more. Ying Jiang Hong, representing the Jingguo Kingdom, declared: "Then we shall form an alliance here! Send out messages, inviting all nations and factions to gather here and discuss the governance of the Taixu Illusionary Realm. I shall establish a gate of Truth outside this mountain. Those who cannot perceive the world cannot govern it. Those who lack true insight need not come."
The six overlords' division of the Illusory Realm of Tai Xu would inevitably fail to reach a consensus, and it would be impossible to suppress the opinions of various sects. Especially since Han Shentu and his group grasped the trend that "the illusory realm of the world should belong to the world."
Instead of quibbling endlessly, let's open up the discussion and expand voting rights.
Regardless of what one says, as the current world's first empire, Jing Guo is definitely able to obtain the greatest right to speak in occasions where various parties gather.
Here's the translation:

A supremely impartial and righteous illusory realm is the best way to propel the torrent of humanity.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This is the only consensus that all countries have at this moment.
Under this premise, the division of private rights among various parties takes place.
"Jingguo is really used to holding alliance meetings, summoning all under heaven at the drop of a hat." Xu Wang replied nonchalantly.
In recent years, only two countries have achieved decisive victories in large-scale wars against hegemonic powers. They are the Jing Kingdom and the Qin Kingdom.
The latter also never stopped coveting the former's position. Or perhaps, which powerful nation in the world wouldn't want to replace the current one
And as the first empire in the world, Jingguo did indeed have a tradition of uniting the world. In history, there was even an arrogant act of uniting the feudal lords and ordering them to dance in a group.
But looking at history, the last time Jing Guo could be considered to attend a league of nations would probably be the "Five Kings Meet in Tianjing".
Therefore, Xu Wang's words were quite sharp.
Ying Jiang Hong looked at him, his face expressionless: "If you have any objections, Xu Jun, please speak your mind."
"Objection" Xu Wang smiled. "I have none. It's great that we can all sit down and discuss this together."
If you have no objections, why do you jump out and have to speak
Ying Jiang Hong let out a hearty laugh.
Si Yu'an held a blade of straw as his sword, it hung casually at his waist, and he smiled: "The Tai Xu Fantasy Realm’s specific coverage area and how it operates should ultimately respect the ideas of local powers. Everyone who can come should come and have a discussion."
“That is true.” In his ceremonial robes, Tu Hu seemed to be radiant with divine light. He spoke meaningfully: “Sometimes when we stand too high, we should also listen to the voices of the people.”
Gong Xiyan raised her hand without a sound. "I agree."
"Then, invite them all and discuss matters together." Jiang Mengxiong didn't hesitate. With a casual punch, he smashed the ground beneath his feet into a huge circle.

Everything on the ground, including the ancestral hall of the Taixu School, was completely flattened.
And at the edge of this immense circle connecting the void, stone cushions were erected.
Jiang Mengxiong brushed his sleeves and sat down on one of the cushions.
This is the ancient tradition of the human race - a roundtable discussion.
The reason for sitting together like this is twofold: first, it demonstrates unity; second, it signifies that all participants are independent and equal, allowing them to express themselves freely.
Song Bodhi smiled and said, "It's hard to argue about something unclear. It might be good to discuss it."
Then, he sat among them.
>
Zhaoguo Chan Master clasped his palms together and sat down, only saying, "Good."
This so-called council was actually a gathering of various factions, each wielding their own power, to carve up the authority over the Illusory Realm of Taixu. Ying Jianghong had already set a threshold, and any force lacking even a trace of the Dao wouldn't be qualified to sit at this table.
For a moment, all the powerful figures gathered, with a galaxy suspended in the void above them.
Boom boom boom!
The heavenly drum resounds again, the news spreading throughout the world.
As the mainstay of the Zhuang Kingdom, a vassal state of today's reigning power, it received news at the first opportunity, regardless of how Jing Guo treated them: powerful figures from various factions joined forces to eliminate the Taixu Sect, gathering at the Taixu Mountain Gate to discuss the future of the Taixu Illusory Realm.
Of course, Zhuang Gaoxian should go.
Such occasions are off-limits, and there will be no chance to attend them in the future.
The current world order is different from the past, and small countries will have increasingly limited space to survive.
It was precisely because he plotted a strategy, even risking his life to grab the chestnuts from the fire, that he achieved victory against the powerful Yong and secured this seat for himself and the state of Zhuang.
Of course he would dress to impress!
But before that, the first thing he did was to send for Prime Minister Du Ruhui into the palace, and ordered someone to bring in the national jade seal.
He did not ascend the throne, but met her in the bedroom.
The wise emperor and his capable ministers of the Great Zhuang Empire sat together, fully able to guide the nation's destiny. Therefore, it was more accurate to call this meeting a secret council rather than a private discussion.
Out of his estate, he was envied by others' words, into the ears of Du Ruhui, so it was.
In plain clothes, Zhuang Gaoxian appeared quite ordinary. It was hard to connect him with the lord who had revived the grand estate.
But he sat at the temporary desk in his bedchamber, casually pushing the scrolls before him into a pile, and naturally displaying his bearing.
“Duke Du,” Du Ruhui had just stepped into the sleeping quarters when he was asked, "Have the two volumes been brought”
If Zhuang Gaoxian were still a prince, Du Ruhui would reprimand him for being too hasty and advise him that those in power should exercise patience. If Zhuang Gaoxian had just ascended the throne, he would joke with him, saying something like, "How are you in such a hurry again"
>
But now, the current Zhuang Gaoxian is an emperor who has proven his enlightenment and led the flourishing of the Zhuang Kingdom.
Du Ruhui merely presented with both hands the treasure box he had just urgently retrieved from the national treasury, replying: "Your Majesty, I have received orders to bring this."
This box is neither gold nor jade, but its design is exquisite and the carvings are intricate. Inside, a treasure light resides, possessing a powerful energy that flows within. Yet it is sealed tightly.
Zhuang Gaoxian raised his hand and took the box. He glanced at Du Ruhui: "Master, the sleeping chamber is my private room, there's no need to be so formal."
Words spoken, hands had already lifted the lid of the box.
This box is divided into two layers, and they are revealed upon opening the lid. Each layer holds an important page, one made of gold and the other of jade. Both pages bear characters that resemble dragons and snakes swimming.
It is well known within the Dao veins that there are two crucial scrolls hidden on Jade Emperor Mountain. They are the key to maintaining the influence of this lineage.
The two are "Jade Purity Golden Scroll" and "Primordial Jade Scroll".
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The former was granted a kingdom, the latter, true.
The name "Cha Cha Zhuang" is listed on the covers of both books.
He is the Grand Duke of Zhuangguo, personally appointed by Jade Emperor Mountain, and also a Taoist immortal personally appointed by Jade Emperor Mountain!
His Taoist name was "Huai De", and he was known as Huai De the Realman.
Of course, this number is little known.
The Son of Heaven is the one who would self-proclaim his identity.
This golden and jade page confirmed his legitimate status within the Dao veins. It allowed him and his Zhuang Guo to thrive within the Taoist system like a fish in water.

At this time, he laid out two pages flat and brought over the jade seal, reaching out his hand to rest it upon.
The Zhuang nation has developed to this day, its national power already not insignificant. Zhuang Gao's ability to mobilize the nation's strength is naturally vast like the sea. However, at this time, only a mere thread is taken. The threads of national power originate from the jade seal and flow through the jade pages.
Almost instantaneously, the jade tablet shimmered and a voice echoed from within. “Honorable Master Huai De, what urgent matter brings you here”
This voice is majestic and powerful, with a hint of imperial aura.
One might even say that he possesses a more imperial air than Zhuang Gao.
Purple Void True Monarch Zong Dezheng, in his past life, was a king of a country. He once led armies against heroes like Ji Yu Su and Ji Yan Qiu in a battle for supremacy. Later, he voluntarily merged his nation into Jing Country and ascended Mount Yujing, becoming the current headmaster of that mountain.
... is also a legend.
When Zhuang Gaoxian ascended the throne, he was enfeoffed by Yu Jing Shan. Zhuang Guo considered Yu Jing Shan to be the legitimate authority, and Zhuang Gaoxian saw himself as a genuine member of Yu Jing Shan's lineage.
Through the "Jade Purity Golden Book" or "Primordial Jade Book", he could directly contact each sect leader on Mount Yuqing once every ten years.
He has used the Jade Clear Golden Record several times and, under the guidance of the Purple Void True Monarch, has resolved his doubts about cultivation.
>
The number of times he used the Yuanshi Jade Tablet, he used it today.
Zhuang Gaoxian didn't care how Zi Xu Zhenjun addressed him. He went straight to the point and said, "Sect Leader Zhenjun, I am going to Taixu Mountain Gate to participate in the Taixu Alliance. I will fully support the interests of Daomen."
Purple Void True Monarch's voice was calm, with a profound meaning: "You support the Taoist sect, and the Taoist sect will support you."
Du Ruhui stood quietly on the side, with much to think about.
It is said that Taixu Zhenjun Xu Yuanzhi was the most beloved disciple of the headmaster of Yu Jing Mountain back then, personally taught by him, and intended to pass on the mantle. In the end, he even allowed Xu Yuanzhi to leave the mountain gate and establish his own school.

Now, Tai Xu True Monarch takes the last step, confining his transcendence power within the illusionary realm of Tai Xu. Furthermore, Taishang Wengqing severs all worldly ties. Compared to his original vast future, this ending is not very favorable.
The voice of True Lord Zixu was utterly devoid of any emotion. One couldn't tell what mood he was truly in, could they
Then Zhuang Gaoqian's voice sounded beside me: "I need support right now."
Zixu Zhenjun's voice said, "What support do you need"
"Zhuang Gaoxian had a mouthful of crooked teeth, and he snarled, “Those two old rogues from the Hanging Temple and Mount Sumeru are still guarding our Zhuang kingdom's borders. They make it impossible for me to move an inch and have turned me into a laughingstock! I’m going to Taixu Mountain Gate to fight for the interests of Daoism and prevent them from hindering me. Please, Headmaster, on behalf of Yujing Mountain, order their execution!”
Du Ruhui's heart skipped a beat, completely understanding his student's intentions. This was certainly a very risky move, but Jiang Wangsheng's reputation had grown so strong that there was no other way to get rid of him without taking risks!
Zixu Zhenjun's response did not keep him waiting too long: "Ku Jue is not a simple mortal, Zhao Huai also has the future aspiration of Yong De on his body. Killing them is not realistic, and you cannot afford such a high price."
Just as Zhuang Gaoxian's face revealed disappointment, Zi Xu Zhenjun changed his words: "However, the Taixu Alliance is a public decision of the world, involving the disposal of the Taixu Fantasy Realm. They are not qualified, nor should they bother you. Kuang Ming is just outside resting and recuperating. I will have him go there."
General Kuangming is the commander of the Dàxié Jūn, one of the eight celestial generals. He is also a renowned general in the Jade Peak Mountain lineage.
With him on the scene, he will surely drive away the two monks.
Zhuang Gao excitedly exclaimed, "Thank you, Headmaster!"
The Purple Void True Monarch did not respond again. The radiance on the jade tablet gradually subsided. It would not brighten again until the deadline arrived.
Zhuang Gaoxian's face was still flushed with excitement, but his hands moved gently.
Du Ruhui put away both the gold and jade pages, covering the treasure box. He took it out of the palace and handed it to Fu Baosong who was waiting outside the hall, instructing him to send it back to the national treasury.
When the Grand Marshal returned to his writing desk, the Emperor of Zhuangguo was expressionless.

All that joy, disappointment, and gritted teeth, all vanish. They only appear when needed.
He didn't have any emotions at all.
