Meng Chuan: Everyone's special rewards included the removal of the world shackles, right?
Zhang Sanfeng: Mine did. I've gotten stronger.
Daigu Madoka: Mine did too. I've gotten stronger.
Ancient One: Mine did too. I've gotten stronger.
Meng Qi: Mine did too, but I haven't gotten stronger. (sobbing)
Meng Chuan: Noob.
Meng Chuan: You're still a teensy billion steps away from your world's ceiling.
Meng Qi: Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west. Come back and say that to me in two hundred years, Great Emperor.
Zhang Sanfeng: Great Emperor flies into a rage.JPG
Ancient One: Great Emperor flies into a rage.JPG
Daigu Madoka: Great Emperor flies into a rage.JPG
Meng Chuan choked on that. In two hundred years, Meng Qi would probably be nearing the other shore. That goddamn leveling speed simply defied fantasy logic.
Meng Chuan: Our surnames are both Meng. We might even have been family before transmigrating.
Meng Chuan: In two hundred years, we'll be family again. Why should one of our own make life difficult for another?
Daigu Madoka: Great Emperor, do you mean we're not family now, and won't be until two hundred years from now?
Meng Chuan: ...
Meng Chuan: I'm not! I didn't! Don't make things up!
Zhang Sanfeng: Hahahaha!
For a while, the Chat Group brimmed with merriment.
Zhang Sanfeng: A Group Store feature has also unlocked. It looks like we can trade using points.
Meng Qi: Let me try.
System notification: Administrator Meng Qi listed Arhat Fist.
Meng Qi: The Chat Group gave me fifty points!
Meng Qi: There's nothing in the store besides Arhat Fist. Looks like we can only buy items listed by group members.
System notification: Administrator Meng Qi listed the first three levels of Golden Bell Shield. System notification: Administrator Meng Qi listed Hundred Transformations of Divine Movement. System notification: Administrator Meng Qi listed Five Tigers Breaking Gate Saber.
Meng Qi: I was a little better off than before when I was in the six paths of reincarnation, so I went straight for higher-level martial arts.
System notification: Administrator Meng Chuan listed the Dao Beginning Scripture. System notification: Administrator Meng Chuan listed the Zhe, Dou, Bing, and Jie techniques of the Nine Secrets. System notification: Administrator Meng Chuan...
Meng Qi: Filthy rich bastard!
Zhang Sanfeng: Filthy rich bastard!
Ancient One: Filthy rich bastard!
Daigu Madoka: Filthy rich bastard!
Meng Chuan: You're too kind.
Meng Chuan: I got a little over a hundred and thirty thousand points in total.
System notification: With the Group Store feature unlocked, group red envelopes and targeted red envelopes now require points to use. Each group member may send one targeted red envelope for free each month.
Ancient One: This should be a restriction on us.
Meng Chuan: Fair enough. Without restrictions, who would use the store? Long live freeloading! (smirk)
Meng Qi: I never thought you were this kind of Great Emperor.
Zhang Sanfeng: I never thought you were this kind of Great Emperor.
Ancient One: I did...
Daigu Madoka: ...
System notification: Administrator Meng Chuan purchased the first three levels of Golden Bell Shield.
Meng Chuan: @Meng Qi, Little Meng, check whether you received any points.
Meng Qi: I got ninety points. The first three levels of Golden Bell Shield cost three hundred, so it looks like I get a thirty-percent cut when something sells.
Zhang Sanfeng: That's an extra source of income, then.
System notification: Administrator Zhang Sanfeng listed the Wudang Mental Method. System notification: Administrator Zhang Sanfeng listed... System notification: Administrator Ancient One listed...
Daigu Madoka: ...
Daigu Madoka: Looks like I'm the only one with nothing to list.
Meng Chuan: Once you've thoroughly studied the knowledge of the Super Ancient Civilization, won't you soar straight into the sky? @Daigu Madoka
Meng Qi: Crow rides an airplane! Tornado destroys a parking lot!
System notification: Administrator Meng Chuan muted Administrator Meng Qi. System notification: Administrator Meng Qi unmuted Administrator Meng Qi.
Meng Qi: Dumbfounded, huh? Your boy's an administrator!
Meng Chuan: ...
Meng Chuan: Are you out of your mind?!
Meng Chuan: @Ancient One, Grandmaster, if it's convenient, could you get me a few more Dimensional Demons, or other powerful beings? If you can find cultivation methods from other systems, please collect some for me as well.
As for whether the Dimensional Demons would resist being stuffed into red envelopes, that was beyond Meng Chuan's control. In any case, red envelopes could only contain things that weren't alive.
One way or another, they couldn't escape death.
Ancient One: No problem. Plenty of Demon Gods, devils, and exotic life covet Earth. I couldn't do anything about them before, but now it's time to deal with them all.
Meng Chuan: @Meng Qi, I'll give you some martial arts later. I derived them based on your cultivation system. Most are aperture opening cultivation techniques, with a few at the outer scenery level.
Meng Chuan: Find a way to exchange these cultivation techniques for good deeds, then exchange those for the opening sections of some Peerless Divine Arts at the six paths of reincarnation.
Meng Qi: Nine returns out of ten!
Meng Chuan: ...
Meng Chuan: Quit fooling around. How confident are you that you can pull it off?
Meng Qi: It shouldn't be much of a problem. I can have Zhiwei take them back to her master, then have him give her some cultivation techniques of the same level. That'll basically launder them.
Meng Qi trusted Su Wuming quite a bit. Besides, at this point in time, those major figures hadn't truly returned yet. As long as he didn't make trouble himself, there should be no real problems.
Meng Chuan: Good. If you get the chance, obtain a couple of Divine Arts that can be cultivated up to the dharmakaya level. Tell me whatever price you need. There'll be plenty of benefits!
Meng Qi: Great Emperor, are you afraid I'll beat you senseless in two hundred years? Is that why you're giving me a task like this now, to cool me off?
Meng Chuan: I'm only asking you to see whether there's an opportunity. Everything I requested above is conditional on keeping you safe. If it can't be done, just pretend I never said anything.
Meng Qi: Rest easy. I'll handle it!
Zhang Sanfeng: Are you preparing to enter seclusion again, Great Emperor?
Zhang Sanfeng had picked up on something. He and Meng Chuan both stood at the pinnacle of their worlds. Now that they could see the path ahead, some urgency was only natural. He understood Meng Chuan's mindset.
Especially since Meng Chuan's world was anything but peaceful.
Meng Chuan: This time, I'm planning to study the Demon God corpses the Grandmaster gave me and see whether they can help me.
Meng Chuan: But if anything comes up, you can still @ me in the group. I won't disconnect from the Chat Group this time.
Meng Chuan: I'll be logging off now, everyone!
Daigu Madoka: Goodbye, Great Emperor!
Ancient One: Goodbye, Great Emperor!
Zhang Sanfeng: Goodbye, Great Emperor!
Meng Qi: Get lost!
System notification: Administrator Meng Chuan muted Administrator Meng Qi.
Then Meng Chuan's avatar turned gray.
System notification: Administrator Zhang Sanfeng muted Administrator Meng Qi again. Administrator Meng Qi cannot unmute himself.
Daigu Madoka: ???
Daigu Madoka: You can do that?
Zhang Sanfeng: This old Daoist didn't expect it either...
Ancient One: The Great Emperor must be eager to embark on the red dust immortal path, right?
Daigu Madoka: His world is far too dark. From what Little Meng said, there's still an ultimate darkness waiting for them ahead.
Zhang Sanfeng: The Great Emperor's world shackles have been removed. Perhaps he'll take the true immortal path?
System notification: Administrator Zhang Sanfeng unmuted Administrator Meng Qi. System notification: Administrator Meng Qi...
Meng Qi: True Person, you've gone too far!
Meng Qi: The Great Emperor will definitely take the red dust immortal path. If he takes the true immortal path, he won't necessarily achieve immortal ascension faster than a Red Dust Immortal, but he'll definitely become an Immortal King more slowly than one!
Meng Qi: The Great Emperor's world still has some time for him to grow. The dark turmoil isn't a major problem.
Meng Qi: Removing the world shackles will also greatly benefit the Great Emperor's transformation within the mortal world.
Zhang Sanfeng: Little Meng, if I didn't know your cultivation level, seeing how convincingly you explain all this, I'd definitely think you were a Peerless Powerhouse.
Ancient One: I think so too.
Daigu Madoka: I think so too.
Meng Qi: Do you think the Great Emperor is the only Emperor-Level being here? Shallow! Before I transmigrated, I was a Great Emperor too!
Meng Qi: Everyone called me the Keyboard Emperor!
