Chat Group.
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "Where is this?!"
In the Song of Adolescence Dimension, Li Hanyi, who had only just made her name and possessed extraordinary talent in the sword, was practicing swordsmanship in a bamboo forest.
Suddenly, a voice rang out beside her ear, and something like a glowing screen appeared before her.
Even when she closed her eyes, the screen did not disappear.
Li Hanyi knew it was not an illusion, but some fantastical thing she simply could not understand.
Others were speaking within the glowing screen. She could see their words clearly and understand them as well.
Xu Yi: "This is a Chat Group. You can think of it as something that allows communication regardless of distance. The people in this space are most likely not from the same world, though there is also a chance they are. There is a basic introduction to the Chat Group in the files, similar to a Newbie Guide. You can take a look."
As the Group Owner, although Xu Yi was somewhat lazy, he still gave them an explanation.
When newcomers joined in the future, the other group members could explain it to them.
Bad Commander: "And you are?"
Xu Yi: "The Group Owner of this Chat Group."
Bad Commander: "I see. Interesting. I have lived for three hundred years, yet this is the first time I have encountered something so novel."
In the Bad People Dimension, Hidden Soldiers Valley.
At night, Bad Commander stood atop the eaves. Dressed in black, wearing a bamboo hat and a distinctive ghostly mask, he stood with his hands behind his back, looking profoundly mysterious.
Bad Commander was the greatest expert in the world. He had lived from the early Tang Dynasty to the present, personally witnessing the mighty Li Tang Dynasty decline from its peak into its current fractured state. Even the Son of Heaven had been jointly murdered by a group of traitorous ministers.
As a treasured retainer of the Li Tang Dynasty, Bad Commander had devoted his life to restoring the Li Tang Dynasty. Yet as a sorcerer, he knew that the great trend of heaven was difficult to defy.
But battling heaven was endlessly enjoyable. As a sorcerer, Bad Commander Yuan Tiangang wanted to take a gamble and defy fate.
He had just glanced through the Newbie Guide in the group files and roughly understood the origins and functions of the Chat Group. He saw a chance to defy fate and change his destiny.
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "You have lived for three hundred years? Could you be an immortal?"
Li Hanyi was slightly surprised. Ordinary martial artists lived only a few decades.
Even martial artists of the Carefree Heaven Realm lived only a little over a hundred years.
Unless one surpassed Carefree Heaven and reached the Spirit Wandering Mysterious Realm. Those at such a transcendent realm seemed worthy of being called "immortals."
Xu Yi: "Living for more than three hundred years makes someone an immortal?"
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "Isn't that so? How could an ordinary martial artist live that long?"
Xu Yi: "Fair enough. You could understand it that way."
Bad Commander: "Immortal is too generous a term. I am still human. I merely consumed an Elixir of Immortality, which is why I have continued living."
Yuan Tiangang revealed his secret. In any case, they were not from the same world, so there was no harm in saying it.
Besides, he had complete confidence in his own strength and was not afraid of any schemes.
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "An Elixir of Immortality!"
Li Hanyi was shocked once more. Such a legendary medicine actually existed.
Bad Commander: "Do not be so surprised. It merely grants longevity. If I suffer a fatal injury, I will still die. But does your world not have an Elixir of Immortality?"
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "No. We only have legends of immortals."
Bad Commander: "Legends of immortals?"
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "In our world, above the Carefree Heaven Realm lies the Spirit Wandering Mysterious Realm. Those at this realm are called immortals. It is said that immortals possess the power to bring back the dead. Even someone who has been dead for many years can be revived."
Bad Commander: "Interesting."
Yuan Tiangang was surprised. If it was merely bringing back the dead, he could do that as well.
With his unique medical skills and even certain witchcraft techniques, he could revive someone who had only just died.
But if someone had been dead for many years, there was truly no way to revive them. After all, the body would have already rotted. No matter how miraculous one's medical methods were, they could not bring them back.
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "Group Owner, does your world have an Elixir of Immortality?"
Xu Yi: "No."
Bad Commander: "Ahem. Since you can serve as the Group Owner of the Chat Group, you must possess something extraordinary. Your world has no Elixir of Immortality?"
Yuan Tiangang said this, but in truth, he was subtly probing what Xu Yi's world was like.
From his earlier conversation with Li Hanyi, Yuan Tiangang had roughly understood her world. It should be similar to his own, a world of martial arts.
As for the so-called Spirit Wandering Mysterious Realm possibly containing immortals, Yuan Tiangang felt they were most likely not immortals, but merely human martial artists with certain special methods.
Xu Yi: "There is no Elixir of Immortality. That thing is useless to me anyway. I cultivate immortality. Living for a few hundred million years is not much of a problem."
Bad Commander: "?? A few hundred million years?"
For a moment, Yuan Tiangang thought he had misheard. Listen to that—was that something a human would say?
A few hundred million years, tossed out so casually. Compared to that, what the hell was an Elixir of Immortality?
More importantly, the Group Owner said he cultivated immortality. Yuan Tiangang did not fully understand, but it sounded impressive. He knew of legends about immortal cultivation. It was said that during the pre-Qin era, there had been a group of Qi Refiners who possessed immense strength and unfathomable abilities.
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "? A few hundred million years!"
Li Hanyi froze. She even suspected that Xu Yi was simply boasting.
Xu Yi: "I was joking. But living for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years is easy enough. What, you can't do that?"
Bad Commander: "..."
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "..."
Fortunately, Tushan Second Head was drunk at the moment. Otherwise, she would have gotten up and started cursing.
Bad Commander: "Group Owner, since you can live for so long, what realm have you reached?"
Xu Yi: "I don't know. I just kept cultivating and eventually got there. There was never much of a bottleneck."
Bad Commander: "Group Owner, I have read extensively. Please do not deceive me. It is said that immortal cultivation is an act of defying heaven, seizing the creation of heaven and earth, and is extremely difficult to succeed in."
Xu Yi: "It is not that difficult."
Xu Yi was not lying to Bad Commander. His cultivation method was incomplete, because he had cultivated it in a dream and could only remember part of it. Yet even that part was profound and mysterious beyond measure.
Moreover, even if he did not cultivate now, the technique would circulate through his body on its own along its predetermined routes, continuously making him stronger.
Snow Moon Sword Immortal: "Unbelievable!"
Xu Yi: "How about I show you my strength?"
Bad Commander: "How?"
Yuan Tiangang was somewhat interested. He still retained a degree of suspicion toward Xu Yi, the Group Owner.
Having lived for three hundred years, how could he lose his composure and judgment merely because of someone else's words?
Xu Yi: "Wait there!"
"Ding. Group Owner Xu Yi has activated the group live stream function."
After the newcomers joined, Xu Yi discovered that several previously grayed-out functions in the Chat Group interface had lit up.
"Would you like to join the Group Owner's Live Stream Room?"
The voices of the Chat Group rang out beside Li Hanyi and Bad Commander's ears.
Tushan Second Head, her eyes hazy with drink, muttered something before being inexplicably pulled into the Live Stream Room.
The live stream function was similar to a three-dimensional projection. Group members could see one another and would appear within the streamer's environment.
In other words, Bad Commander, Li Hanyi, and the drunken Tushan Second Head had now appeared in Xu Yi's living room.
The three stared at one another, while a fox slept soundly.
