East King Duke looked toward the very front of the crowd.
Several figures sat cross-legged there.
The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and the Western pair, Jieyin and Zhunti.
The six of them differed from everyone else. While the others sat directly on the ground, mysterious auras emanated from the cushions beneath them.
Others might not know, but he did. Anyone with a cushion could become Hongjun's disciple.
At the very least, they were guaranteed a Saint's position.
Now that he had incurred the hatred of several future Saints, it was impossible to say he felt no pressure.
Of course, there was nothing to be done about it.
If he had transmigrated earlier, he would have snatched a cushion no matter what. Unfortunately, by the time he arrived, the sermon was nearly over.
When traveling the world, with the status of a Dao Ancestor's disciple, one could strut sideways through the Primordial World without issue.
Why would he need to scheme as he did now?
When the Dao Ancestor had bestowed seven strands of Primordial Violet Qi, why was Hongyun the only one robbed and reduced to ashes in body and soul?
The two from the West had low cultivation and no powerful Magic Treasures.
Why had Di Jun and Taiyi not tried to rob them?
It was because, among those seven, Hongyun alone was not the Dao Ancestor's disciple. Even if he died, he died for nothing!
Thus, he was exceedingly clear-headed about his current circumstances.
Not the slightest bit carried away.
Instead, after obtaining what he wanted, he began to keep a lower profile.
Closing his eyes alone in thought, he took stock of this harvest!
An increase in comprehension?
That was not particularly useful. As the incarnation of the First ray of primordial yang energy, his comprehension had been heaven-defying from the start.
The Way of Faith, on the other hand, had some potential.
With the blessing of the Heavenly Emperor's Exalted Position, gathering faith would be quite easy for him.
Beyond that came all manner of Spiritual Treasures.
The Sky Measuring Ruler, Universe Mirror, Creation White Lotus, Myriad Immortals Scroll, and his own accompanying Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Dragon Head Staff!
What he needed to do now was raise his strength as swiftly as possible, then establish the Heavenly Court.
He had not forgotten the hook the Dao Ancestor had buried for him.
If he failed to fulfill the role of Heavenly Emperor properly, heaven and earth would condemn him together.
Coming from Hongjun's mouth, he did not think those words were spoken in jest.
[Immersed in your plans for the future, your awareness of your surroundings has weakened. You do not know that a mysterious ball of light has quietly entered your body!] [For some reason, you detect this occurrence. Your divine sense enters your body, yet no matter how you search, you cannot uncover anything abnormal. Anxiety fills your heart!] [But your worry is entirely unnecessary, because before long, you will understand what this thing is!]
East King Duke inadvertently noticed another prompt appear before his eyes. Before he could react, another light screen appeared in front of him.
"Myriad Worlds Chat Group invites you to join. Do you accept the invitation?"
Myriad Worlds Chat Group!
Joy welled up in East King Duke's heart. Only now did he understand what the mysterious ball of light from the system prompt had been.
Sure enough, he would understand it before long.
A system! Another system had arrived!
"I accept! I accept!"
Without the slightest hesitation, East King Duke chose to accept the invitation.
"It seems that Voiceover System should be of a higher rank than this chat group system!"
East King Duke watched the chat interface still loading as he pondered inwardly.
Chat group.
An interface resembling the QQ interface from his previous life slowly unfolded. Messages streamed past one after another, making it seem exceptionally lively.
[I Didn't Peck on Mount Hua: What is this place? And what does my name even mean?!]
[Little Dragon Girl: I do not know. It seems to be a place existing within our consciousness!]
[No Parking Fee: This is a chat group. I just explored it a little—it is exactly like the chat groups I used before. But most of its functions are locked, and only the chat function can be used normally.]
[I, the Undying Emperor: I have unified the realm and possess the Four Seas. Why have I never heard the name of this chat group? How dare you deceive your emperor!]
The chat interface continued to refresh, and Ye Fan began explaining within it.
Though they were still somewhat confused, everyone had gained a rough understanding.
[First Emperor of Qin: Why is the Group Leader position blank?]
[Yue Buqun: Yes, Little Friend Ye, according to what you said, how can a chat group function without a Group Leader?]
Suddenly, purple aura effects appeared at the top of the chat group, followed by a golden announcement lighting up above.
[Welcome, Heavenly Emperor, to the chat group!]
[The Heavenly Emperor's cultivation is profound, his fortune like a dragon's; he should become the chat group's administrator... Bzzzt...]
[Become the Group Leader of the chat group!]
Magnificent effects flared up. To everyone's astonishment, an additional name wreathed in purple aura appeared among the group members, followed by the title "Group Leader," looking exceptionally mysterious.
[Notification: The Myriad Worlds Chat Group now has a Group Leader. Features such as videos, Red Packets, and the free shop have been unlocked. Please explore the specifics yourselves!]
As the previously black-and-white functions were unlocked, everyone stared dumbfounded at the changes.
[First Emperor of Qin: No, who is this? He automatically became the Group Leader the moment he joined? Could my achievement in unifying the Six States truly not compare to his?!]
[Little Dragon Girl: Heavenly Emperor? What an imposing name. @First Emperor of Qin, why don't you change your name too? First Emperor doesn't sound as good as Heavenly Emperor!]
[Ye Fan: Absolutely not. Where I come from, the words "Heavenly Emperor" carry immense karmic consequences. Anyone who proclaims himself a Heavenly Emperor, no matter how profound his cultivation, will ultimately die a violent death.]
[Yue Buqun: Indeed. Not just anyone can bear the title Heavenly Emperor. However, as far as I know, the Heavenly Court has Five Heavenly Emperors. I wonder which one this is?]
[Ye Fan: Whoever he is, with this mysterious chat group before us, this Heavenly Emperor must surely be a true immortal.]
[Yue Buqun: Yue Buqun, thirteenth-generation Sect Leader of Mount Hua, pays respects to Patriarch. May Patriarch enjoy boundless blessings!]
[Little Dragon Girl: No, why are you already bowing to him?]
[Ye Fan: Believe in kindness...]
Zixiao Palace.
East King Duke appeared to be resting with his eyes closed, but in truth, he was constantly lurking in the chat group.
Including himself, there were only five people in the chat group at present.
He was also somewhat puzzled by the fact that he had become the Group Leader.
Because he had clearly heard that the chat group initially assigned him as an administrator, only changing it to Group Leader after it lagged.
He still had no idea where this chat group had come from, much less possessed the ability to interfere with it.
After thinking it over, he credited it to his Voiceover System.
[Congratulations, Heavenly Emperor, on becoming the Group Leader. You have specially obtained Group Leader privilege: tenfold crit... hundredfold... ten thousand... Billion Times Critical Strike!]
[Billion Times Critical Strike: All items obtained within the chat group, including but not limited to system rewards and group member Red Packets, can enjoy quality critical strike rewards!]
"Case solved. This was definitely the Voiceover System's doing—and I have proof!"
East King Duke brought up the Voiceover System's prompts and looked them over.
[You were overjoyed after obtaining the chat group system, but you did not know that even greater surprises awaited you.]
[After becoming the chat group's Group Leader, it stingily gave you only a tenfold critical strike. Group Leader privilege tenfold critical strike in progress... You obtained a hundredfold critical strike. Group Leader privilege hundredfold critical strike in progress... You never imagined that you would obtain the Billion Times Critical Strike privilege.]
When East King Duke saw this, even his fingers began to tremble, while his heart pounded wildly.
This was a Billion Times Critical Strike. Without the slightest exaggeration, even roadside wild grass, after undergoing a critical strike, would instantly become immortal grass!
Those ordinary Mortal Artifacts, once they fell into his hands, would at the very least become a Houtian Spiritual Treasure.
