[Jiang Xian: "By the way, how are things going for you all? I'm stuck on Earth right now. Without a spaceship, I can't leave Earth."]
[Fang Han: "I ate the Sacred Fruit and used the Nine-Orifice Golden Pill. I'm now at the tenth level of the Flesh Body Secret Realm, the Divine Transformation Realm. Fang Qingxue thought I had exceptional luck and took me to join the Eclosion Immortal Gate. Since the journey there was so long and would take over a month, I turned on offline mode too. I've already joined the Eclosion Immortal Gate and am now an Outer Disciple there."]
[Ye Fan: "I just arrived at Lingxu Cave Heaven and haven't opened my Bitter Sea yet. This Desolate Ancient Sacred Body is an early-game trap in this version. Not only does heaven and earth target it, but the Underworld does too. It'll take me a long time to open my Bitter Sea. I can't do anything about heaven and earth, but someday I'll definitely give those supremes in the Underworld a proper 'welcome.'"]
[Xiao Yan: "After I ate the Sacred Fruit, I went straight back to being a Dou Zhe. My father said some honored guests are coming tomorrow. It should be Nalan Yanran coming to break off our engagement, right?"]
[Shi Hao: "After I ate the Sacred Fruit, my chest felt itchy. It feels like it's recovered quite a bit already. I also poured all the Divine Spring Water on the Willow Deity. Now she's asking me where I got it. How should I answer?"]
[Jiang Xian: "The Willow Deity is very trustworthy. Just tell her you gained access to a group chat connecting all the heavens and worlds, and the Divine Spring Water came from the members. While you're at it, pass on the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art from the Great Five Elements Art to her. With it, she'll recover faster."]
After reading the messages, Shi Hao gave the Willow Deity a general account of the Heavenly Chat Group.
"Willow Deity, the group leader also asked me to pass the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art on to you. It has remarkable power to restore vitality and can help you recover faster," Shi Hao told her.
"The Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art?" The Willow Deity was somewhat puzzled.
Shi Hao told the Willow Deity the group's introduction to the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art, then passed the cultivation art on to her.
The Willow Deity's willow branches trembled gently. She first sensed the supreme wood Dao fortune Dao rhymes flowing through the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art. Together with the vitality supplied by the Divine Spring Water earlier, thousands upon thousands of tender green shoots instantly sprouted from her formerly dormant, dim branches, and jade-green radiance swept across the entire Great Wilderness.
The Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art was a supreme wood-path divine ability among the Three Thousand Great Daos, governing the vitality of all things and reshaping the body and soul. The Willow Deity felt that this cultivation art surpassed Immortal King arts. She felt it might be a legendary Immortal Emperor Law.
She was now very curious about the people in the chat group Shi Hao had described and hoped she would have a chance to meet them later.
The Willow Deity continued her contemplation, sending out a strand of divine sense to ask Shi Hao to convey her thanks.
[Shi Hao: "Brother Jiang Xian, I've told the Willow Deity about the group chat and passed the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Art on to her."]
[Shi Hao: "The Willow Deity asked me to tell everyone that if you run into any difficulties, you can ask her for help. She'll definitely lend a hand."]
[Jiang Xian: "All right. It looks like nobody has anything going on right now. How about an offline group meetup? I haven't met anyone except Ye Fan, and I'd like to meet you all."]
[Fang Han: "Sure. I don't have anything going on right now."]
[Ye Fan: "No problem here. Any time works for me."]
[Shi Hao: "I'd really like to meet everyone too."]
[Xiao Yan: "I want to go too, but my engagement is getting called off tomorrow!"]
[Jiang Xian: "Someone actually dares break off an engagement with our Flame Emperor? How about we hold our offline meetup in the Battle Through the Heavens World? Our Fenglingyueying Sect can show up to back Xiao Yan. A mere Misty Cloud Sect actually dares bully someone from our Fenglingyueying Sect."]
[Ye Fan: "Sounds good to me."]
[Fang Han: "No objections here."]
[Shi Hao: "Great! I agree."]
[Xiao Yan: "All right, brothers, come over to my place for the meetup tomorrow, and back me up while you're at it."]
[Jiang Xian: "By the way, Fang Han, I got six Immortal corpses. They're at least equivalent to the Longevity Realm, so Yan can refine them into Blood Pills. One corpse for each of us, and the extra one is yours, Fang Han, as Yan's processing fee. I just don't know if everyone is okay with Blood Pills, hehe."]
[Jiang Xian: Exclusive red packet for Fang Han]
[Fang Han has claimed the red packet]
Fang Han put the corpses from the chat group's storage space into the Yellow Springs Diagram, then asked Yan about Blood Pills in detail.
[Fang Han: "Fellow Daoists, there's no need for concern. Blood Pills sound frightening, but they contain no trace of malice, remnant souls, inner demons, or impurities. The Dragon Subduing Yellow Springs Diagram holds the entire Yellow Springs Sacred River. Yellow Springs Heartless Water is a supreme purifying sacred water. During refinement, it repeatedly washes through the corpses' blood essence, cleansing away all remnants of their souls, baleful energy, resentment, and attachments from life. In the end, only the purest source essence remains, condensed into pills."]
[Fang Han: "To put it plainly, Blood Pills are essentially pure life energy concentrated to the utmost. They're no different from pills refined from natural treasures. The only difference is where the ingredients come from."]
[Fang Han: "Yan's strength hasn't recovered yet, so it'll take another two days to finish refining them all. I'll send them to everyone then."]
Everyone in the group felt much better after hearing Fang Han's explanation. They just had to treat them as the purest energy.
On the mountain behind the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yan lay on the grass, humming a tune with a faint smile on his lips.
In this single day, he had first learned his own storyline through the chat group, then used the Sacred Fruit to recover straight to the Dou Zhe Realm, and awakened Yao Lao ahead of time to take him as his teacher. He had even ended up playing a cracked version of Battle Through the Heavens Online.
Life really was full of ups and downs. Xiao Yan leaped to his feet and shouted toward the cliff a few times, venting some of the grievances he had suffered over the past three years.
"Teacher, weren't you curious about the group members I told you about? They're coming over to visit tomorrow. You can meet them," Xiao Yan said, seemingly to thin air.
As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of pale-white soul slowly drifted out of the antique Storage Ring. Yao Lao's illusory figure hovered in midair, his eyes suddenly lighting up with barely containable wonder.
"All the heavens and worlds..." Yao Lao repeated softly, his voice full of curiosity. In his entire life, he had only seen the world of the Dou Qi Continent. He had never imagined that countless completely different worlds existed.
A while later, Xiao Yan went to find Xiao Zhan, intending to ask his father to give the group members a proper welcome tomorrow.
"Father, my Dou Qi cultivation has recovered." Xiao Yan displayed his Dou Zhe-level Dou Qi.
"Yan'er, your Dou Qi has recovered! This is wonderful. The young genius Xiao Yan of old is back." A faint smile appeared on Xiao Zhan's stern face.
"Yan'er, how did your Dou Qi cultivation recover? Can you tell your father?" Xiao Zhan asked in puzzlement.
"Father, some friends I just met helped me. They're coming to visit our Xiao Clan tomorrow," Xiao Yan replied.
"All right. I'll certainly give your friends a proper welcome tomorrow and thank them properly for helping you recover your Dou Qi." Xiao Zhan understood what Xiao Yan meant.
