Luo Feng smiled at the green-robed woman, "Senior Feng Du, you think too highly of me. Samsara Tower is renowned across the Origin Continent; I'm sure its members' strength far surpasses mine."
"Currently, among the eight members, one is an invincible God King at the first tier, and seven are at the second tier," the green-robed woman admitted.
"My strength is significantly lower than theirs," Luo Feng stated.
"Then, are you willing to join?" the green-robed woman asked, looking at Luo Feng. "You should have confidence; you'll likely become an invincible God King at the first tier very soon."
Luo Feng didn't immediately reply. After a moment of thought, he asked, "Senior Feng Du, could you explain the rules of Samsara Tower?"
The green-robed woman explained, "I merely established Samsara Tower as an organization. All internal members are absolutely equal and know each other's identities. If there's an operation, you can invite other companions to participate, but their participation is entirely voluntary."
"Whether members maintain friendly or hostile relationships is beyond anyone's control."
"However, Samsara Tower has two core rules: First, no member is allowed to reveal the identity of any other member. Second, for any action initiated by a member, participants must not betray, and those who decline must not disclose information about it."
"These two rules must be strictly adhered to once you join," the green-robed woman said, looking at Luo Feng. "Violating them means incurring a great karma and becoming a common enemy to all other members." Luo Feng understood.
Not leaking identities, not betraying. It seemed quite simple.
"If it's just these two rules, I'm willing to join," Luo Feng stated.
Throughout its long history, Samsara Tower had maintained a good reputation on the Origin Continent. Unlike factions established by foreign races, such as Two Realms Palace, Myriad Law Tower, or Time-Space Solitary Boat, it was different.
Furthermore, Empress Feng Du herself enjoyed an excellent reputation, with both great ancient nations holding a friendly attitude towards her. The combined reputation of Samsara Tower and Empress Feng Du was the true reason Luo Feng was willing to join.
In fact, as his master Sitting Mountain Guest had once advised, upon becoming a God King, one would naturally join certain organizations.
"Welcome to our ranks," the green-robed woman said with a radiant smile. She flipped her hand and produced a token. "With this token, you can project a wisp of your consciousness into 'Samsara Tower'."
"I will gather the other companions, and we will all welcome our new member together."
Luo Feng took the token.
"You can also use this token to contact the other eight members," the green-robed woman added. Luo Feng sensed that, apart from allowing access to 'Samsara Tower', the token indeed only allowed him to communicate with the eight existing companions.
A colossal figure stood majestically between heaven and earth, his body almost occupying a third of the entire landmass. Black winds whistled, buffeting his skin, which, dark green and black, exuded a terrifying aura.
In this world, apart from him, there were only two old servants.
"Hmm?"
The colossal figure suddenly opened his eyes, his dark yellow gaze showing a hint of surprise. "Feng Du has invited a new member? Samsara Tower finally has a new member?"
"Come, come, let's drink, let's drink."
Inside a grand hall, a young man was leisurely drinking, surrounded by many friends.
"Second brother, your talent is considerable, but you still need to focus on cultivation," a burly man with a scaly tail and sharp horns approached, advising him, "If you continue to indulge in such pleasures, when calamity strikes, you might find it difficult to escape."
"Cultivation?" The tipsy young man glanced at his friend. "Big brother, what is cultivation for anyway?" "When your strength is mighty, and you become a Chaos Realm expert, then you are a true master, capable of easily controlling the destiny of an entire Chaos State," the burly man replied.
"I don't care about controlling anyone's destiny. Being able to control my own destiny is good enough. Hahaha, what I see, what I hear, what I perceive... that is all I need," the tipsy young man laughed heartily. "Don't be too ambitious; being able to enjoy fine wine is already excellent."
"Sigh," the burly man stopped trying to persuade him.
The tipsy young man suddenly became aware of something.
"Oh, Feng Du has invited a new member? I wonder who the new member is?" A hint of depth appeared in the tipsy young man's eyes. He had chosen reincarnation to sever karmic entanglements and attain a measure of freedom.
However, even after his reincarnation, he had still contacted Empress Feng Du and remained a member of Samsara Tower.
Samsara Tower was the only organization he still trusted. Its members had never betrayed him.
"Let's see who the new member is," the tipsy young man thought, and with the aid of his token, his consciousness instantly traveled to Samsara Tower.
Beyond the Origin Continent lay the boundless Universe Sea. Near the continent's edge, a vast expanse of the Universe Sea was permeated by endless toxic mist. The mist spread widely and was continuously accumulating, growing denser over time.
At the center of the toxic mist was an enormous creature with countless claws and a single golden eye.
"Samsara Tower finally has a new member. The one Feng Du chose must be extraordinary," this massive creature thought, and its consciousness, too, entered Samsara Tower. Soon, members began to arrive one after another.
"Om."
Luo Feng, using his token, also projected his consciousness into Samsara Tower for the first time.
It was a pavilion coalesced from illusion. Luo Feng stepped into it and immediately saw eight figures already seated inside. As the newest member, he was, in fact, the last to arrive.
"Luo He has arrived," Empress Feng Du said, seated there, smiling at Luo Feng.
The other seven also looked at Luo Feng with curiosity, all appearing very friendly.
Luo Feng saw these seven figures. None of them made any attempt to conceal themselves, so Luo Feng naturally recognized them at a glance, which secretly astonished him.
"What an impressive Samsara Tower! No wonder it had such a great reputation, comparable to Two Realms Palace, despite having only eight members before," Luo Feng thought. He knew that all the members present before him were widely renowned.
"In Samsara Tower, all members treat each other as equals and can address each other by name," Empress Feng Du said. "Luo He, from now on, you are our ninth member." "Luo He," a burly figure said, raising his cup slightly. "Luo He, the number one expert of the Chaos Realm, I've long heard your name. For Feng Du to invite you, you must be even more exceptional than rumored." A massive, jovial fatty chuckled, his smile carrying an invisible charm that naturally drew favor from other beings. He was the Great Soaring Lord, a direct disciple of the Myriad Realms Lord.
His smile was very benevolent; he was indeed Emperor Guixu.
"Luo He, I am Wuxin," a young man said, smiling at Luo Feng.
Luo Feng nodded with a smile. "Brother Wuxin."
Wuxin...
He was once a guest God King of the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation, though he had never fully joined, only serving as a regular guest. As his strength grew, and he became a second-tier God King, he naturally began to contend for various resources.
Because the resources he acquired were too precious, he was ambushed and targeted for assassination multiple times by the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation. After several continuous sieges, Wuxin eventually fell in battle. "There was no other way; if I didn't die, the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation wouldn't give up. So, I had to reincarnate, preventing them from tracing me through karma," the young man explained. "You are only at the Chaos Realm now, and you don't possess resources that would tempt them! Once you become powerful enough, you'll see how ugly the true faces of those emperors from the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation are!"
Luo Feng smiled faintly. "Thank you for the warning, Brother Wuxin."
Among the eight members present, two had a deep enmity with the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation: Emperor Guixu and God King Wuxin. Both had once served as guest cultivators, and Emperor Guixu had even been a direct disciple of 'Emperor Xuan'.
Their grievances were real, and Luo Feng understood that Wuxin's advice was heartfelt.
However...
Although there were many rumors circulating, Luo Feng was also aware that some emperors and God Kings of the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation were indeed overbearing.
But at least for now, the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation held no enmity towards him. Luo Feng cherished his connections with Emperor Chu Yu, his master Emperor Chu, and Emperor Ming.
Favors were favors, and grudges were grudges.
His master, Emperor Chu, and Emperor Ming had both shown him kindness. Luo Feng would never turn against the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation simply because a few other cultivators tried to instigate him. "Luo He," a white-robed man said, smiling and nodding at Luo Feng.
"King Tiandu," Luo Feng acknowledged with a nod.
King Tiandu was a direct disciple of the Blazing Wind Ancestor! A second-tier God King, he held a remarkably high status in the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation, even as a guest God King. The emperors there also showed King Tiandu considerable respect.
The first set of materials for his Trinity form had come from King Tiandu's pet.
Luo Feng exchanged brief greetings with several other members present.
Of the eight members, Empress Feng Du was from the Eastern Pole Domain, and the Great Soaring Lord hailed from the Myriad Realms Nation.
Emperor Guixu, God King Wuxin, and King Tiandu were all connected to the Blazing Wind Ancient Nation.
God King Yuntian, an invincible God King at the first tier, was originally a guest God King of the Thunder Ancient Nation. He had once lost control while cultivating his primordial bloodline and killed a God King from the Thunder Ancient Nation, forcing him to flee and remain in hiding ever since.
Lord Blackfire, a second-tier guest God King of the Thunder Ancient Nation, had completely turned against them in his pursuit of resources to become a monarch. Truth be told, the Thunder Ancient Nation valued him greatly, but his inability to obtain the necessary monarch-level resources was what ultimately led to their conflict. On the Origin Continent, his reputation was also quite good.
"God King Earth," Luo Feng said, looking at the last person seated, a brawny man who smiled jovially and raised his cup to Luo Feng.
Luo Feng immediately raised his cup in return, though he understood that, in terms of strength, Empress Feng Du and God King Earth were the most powerful members of the entire Samsara Tower.
God King Earth was also a solitary God King who had risen from humble beginnings and had once served as a guest in the Thunder Ancient Nation. His talent was exceptional and dazzling. With his abilities, he even obtained multiple resources left behind by a 'Yuan', which led the Thunder Ancient Nation to plot against him. However, his strength was too formidable, and even under the siege of multiple monarchs, he managed to escape head-on. From that point, God King Earth became an adversary of the Thunder Ancient Nation.
"A single Samsara Tower actually has two members comparable to the Monarch level," Luo Feng inwardly marveled.
"No wonder its reputation is so immense."
During this welcoming of the new member, everyone also used the opportunity to get to know each other. Apart from God King Earth, who was somewhat reticent, the other members chatted with Luo Feng for a while and were all very amicable.
"Currently, my strength is the lowest in Samsara Tower. Even if they undertake any operations, it wouldn't be appropriate to involve me," Luo Feng realized. He knew that only after becoming a God King and experiencing a comprehensive increase in strength would he be able to participate in some of their activities.
