Battle Through the Heavens world.

Xiao Yan's eyes widened, and his entire body stiffened.

"Th... three thousand years?"

Yao Lao's soul form floated out beside him, frowning. "What's wrong? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Xiao Yan abruptly turned his head, his voice trembling. "Yao Lao! An Immortal joined our group! An Immortal who has cultivated for three thousand years!"

Yao Lao froze for a moment, then his expression turned solemn as well. "Cultivated for three thousand years?!"

"Yeah!" Xiao Yan rubbed his hands together, his eyes shining. "We've found someone to latch onto!"

Legend of the Condor Heroes world.

At an unnamed inn, a girl of fifteen or sixteen sat by the window with a teacup in hand, her gaze fixed on the air before her.

Huang Rong blinked and murmured, "Three thousand years... wouldn't that mean he started cultivating in ancient times?"

She set down her teacup, her jade-like fingers lightly tapping the table as the corners of her lips rose slightly.

"So humble, saying it's 'not worth mentioning'... Interesting. Either this person truly cares nothing for fame and profit, or he's putting on an act. Either way, he's no simple figure."

Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre world.

Mount Wudang, Purple Cloud Palace.

Zhang Sanfeng sat cross-legged on a prayer mat, a trace of emotion surfacing on his aged face.

"Three thousand years... I have cultivated the Dao for a hundred years, and already feel it to be a long time. What kind of years would three thousand years be?"

He slowly closed his eyes, then opened them again, a touch of resolve appearing in his gaze.

"Yet the path of cultivation lies not in the length of one's years, but in one's comprehension and fortune. Though I have only a century of cultivation, I may not be unable to seek the Dao from an Immortal."

Dragon Ball world.

Kame House.

A messy-haired young man squatted on the beach, one hand scratching the back of his head while the other pointed at the air in front of him.

"Three thousand years? How strong would that make him?" Sun Wukong's face was full of excitement. "Is he stronger than Mr. Popo? Stronger than Kami?"

He suddenly sprang to his feet and clenched his fists. "I really want to fight him!"

Master Roshi was sunbathing in a recliner nearby. Hearing Sun Wukong mutter, he rolled his eyes. "Can't you stop wanting to fight everyone you meet?"

Sun Wukong grinned. "But meeting someone this strong and not sparring with him would be such a waste!"

The group became lively again.

Xiao Yan: A perfected Heavenly Immortal? Big shot, what exactly does a perfected Heavenly Immortal mean? Can you tell us?

Miss Huang: Same question.

Zhang Sanfeng: This old man is curious as well. Between heaven and earth, how are the levels of cultivation divided?

Sun Wukong: Yeah, yeah! Is he stronger than Frieza?

Yang Xuan pondered these questions for a moment.

He decided to reveal a little information—he could not explain too much, but he had to make himself seem unfathomable.

Immortal: The path of cultivation remains fundamentally the same despite countless changes. No matter the world, it is all about defying heaven and pursuing immortality.

Immortal: As far as I know, the cultivation realms are roughly divided into: Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Tribulation Transcendence, and Ascension. Only after Ascension does one truly enter the Immortal path. Immortals are further divided into Human Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, True Immortals, Profound Immortals, Golden Immortals, and Great Luo Immortals.

Immortal: I am merely at the perfected Heavenly Immortal realm. It is truly insignificant.

Xiao Yan: ...

Xiao Yan stared blankly at the line on the screen, his mind completely blank.

Foundation Establishment? Golden Core? Nascent Soul? Spirit Transformation?

Only after Ascension did one count as an Immortal? Then what did his Dou Qi cultivation amount to now? Kindergarten?

He recalled his lofty ambitions when he had first transmigrated into the Battle Through the Heavens world. A useless good-for-nothing rising to power, the three-year agreement—his current goal was to become a Dou Di.

But now, he realized that a Dou Di might only be the starting point of the Immortal path?

Miss Huang: So... three thousand years of cultivation is only the beginning of the Immortal path?

Miss Huang: Then the realms beyond that must take thousands of years at a time, right?

Zhang Sanfeng: Foundation Establishment, Golden Core... this old man has heard of such terms before. Legend has it that cultivators in ancient times did indeed have such realm divisions. It is only that the inheritance was later severed, becoming the martial arts system of today.

Zhang Sanfeng: This old man has cultivated for a hundred years and possesses deep internal energy. By this standard, I fear I would not even count as being at Foundation Establishment.

Sun Wukong: I've met King Kai and North Kai. What realms would they count as?

Immortal: Every world has a different cultivation system, so it is difficult to directly compare them.

"The world really is huge."

Sun Wukong murmured as he looked at the interface, an even fiercer fighting spirit blazing in his eyes.

In the end, Xiao Yan was the first to break the silence.

Xiao Yan: Big shot, please stop. I'm shutting down.

Miss Huang: Pfft, Xiao Yan, is your mentality really that fragile?

Miss Huang: You're only in your teens. What are you in such a hurry for?

Xiao Yan: That's true... Wait, no! Miss Huang, how do you know I'm in my teens?

Miss Huang: I guessed.

Miss Huang: The way you speak is just like those young boys who have only just entered the world. Arrogant yet cowardly—the unique temperament of teenage boys.

Xiao Yan: ...

Xiao Yan: Thanks, I feel offended.

Zhang Sanfeng: Hahaha, this old man thinks young friend Xiao Yan has quite a good temperament. I imagine he is also an open-minded person.

Xiao Yan: Zhang Zhenren, don't comfort me. I'm about to cry.

Sun Wukong: Hahaha! Xiao Yan, you're an interesting guy!

Immortal: Indeed, interesting.

Zhang Sanfeng: Great Immortal, this group is extraordinarily wondrous, especially the group owner, whose abilities are unfathomable. She can divine the future and know the past. If Great Immortal is interested, you may as well ask her. The group owner is very easy to talk to; you need only offer some red packets.

At this thought, Zhang Sanfeng's once-unruffled heart began to stir.

Using the group owner's unfathomable abilities to predict the Immortal's past could also verify many of his doubts from another angle.

If he truly was an Immortal who had attained the Dao, gained longevity, and been recorded among the Immortals

Then no matter what, he had to seize this opportunity!

The others in the group also caught on and thought of the same possibility.

They all understood Zhang Sanfeng's meaning, and their hearts grew equally fervent.

Xiao Yan: We should @Senior-Year Powerhouse here

Huang Rong: We should @Senior-Year Powerhouse here

Sun Wukong: We should @Senior-Year Powerhouse here

Seeing this, Yang Xuan became somewhat more interested.

For now, only this group owner who called herself Senior-Year Powerhouse was someone he could not quite see through.

This was the perfect chance to see what the group owner was capable of. If she truly could know everything, that would be a good thing.

At the very least, she could calculate his background, couldn't she?

As for red packets, hehe. In the Primordial World, even a grain of sand or pebble would be an unparalleled treasure in the lower realms.

It could be said that gold lay everywhere here.

With the thought of testing her, Yang Xuan became more serious.

On the other end of the chat group was the group owner, "Senior-Year Powerhouse," Li Yuxuan!

Her fair forehead was covered in sweat, friend!

Li Yuxuan was a transmigrator and the group owner of the chat group!

The world she had transmigrated into was a high-martial world where countless races were rising.

The inheritances of major schools had gradually surfaced, restarting the path of martial arts. The currently revealed realms had seven stages.

Tempering Force (Martial Disciple), Bone Forging (Martial Master), Meridian Opening (Great Martial Master), Mortal Shedding (Martial King), Aura Condensation (Martial Sect), Dragon Gate (Grandmaster), and Nether Passage (Martial Heavenly King level).

She had been reborn into this world. She began practicing martial arts at six, and now, at eighteen, she was in the late Tempering Force stage—not too high or too low, just enough to reach the threshold for a martial arts university.

Fortunately, on the eve of the college entrance exam, she awakened her golden finger and became the group owner of this Heavens Chat Group.

Just like in many familiar scenarios, she had used her knowledge of the plot to bluff people into giving her some things.

For example, Zhang Sanfeng's Tai Chi Fist, Xiao Yan's Fire-Blowing Palm and Suction Palm...

But now, faced with Yang Xuan's question, she felt somewhat guilty.

"System, you really pulled a Great Immortal into the group!"

Li Yuxuan's face fell as she looked at Yang Xuan's profile, which was filled with question marks!

"Can you generate a destiny script?"

"No."

A cold mechanical voice rang out in Li Yuxuan's mind. It was within her expectations, though. Since she had been tagged, she naturally could not play dumb.

She immediately replied in the group, "Welcome, fellow Daoist, to this group. Meeting is fate @Immortal"

"You are too courteous, fellow Daoist."

Yang Xuan smiled faintly on the other end. "I heard the group owner can comprehend destiny? Might I ask what my destiny is?"

Li Yuxuan felt like her head had doubled in size.

But she did not panic. She already had a countermeasure.

She hurriedly replied, "You are too courteous, fellow Daoist. Destiny lies only in your own hands. How could I claim to know it..."

Yang Xuan also let out a slight sigh of relief on the other side.

Not knowing was good!

If she did not know, then he had plenty of room to maneuver!!

There was nothing wrong with his identity being exposed, but one always had to keep something hidden and play it safe!

"I understand."

Anyway, he would just act mysterious. As for what he understood, they could figure it out themselves.

The others in the group were completely baffled.

What were these two talking about? They could not understand! But it sounded amazing!

They did not understand, but it sounded impressive!

Xiao Yan: "Is this how Great Immortals converse? So unfathomable!"

Miss Huang: "Why does it feel like they're just putting up a front?"

Sun Wukong: "Didn't they basically say nothing?"

Zhang Sanfeng: "He is an Immortal. There can be no mistake."
