The Nature of the Chat Group?

Shen Fei watched as Willow God said she wanted a drop of his blood added to Huang's cleansing ritual.

The massive turtle body paused for a moment.

Using his blood for the cleansing ritual—this was rather interesting.

Shen Fei tossed the Profound Heavy Stele onto his turtle shell and began refining it with his primordial spirit and mana. Then, he split off a sliver of his consciousness and entered the Chat Group to send a message.

[Primordial Giant Turtle: We're all group members, so there's no need to be overly polite. But we can't break the rules of the group either.]

[Stone Village Guardian Spirit: Don't worry. Once my memories recover, I'll trade the Ten Fierce Treasures Technique I know for it. It's just that I'm still recovering right now...]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: Mm, you can owe me for now.]

Shen Fei nodded. This time, he had established a connection with the Perfect World. Moreover, if Little Rascal used his blood for the cleansing ritual, they would form a measure of karmic connection.

At the very least, given Huang's character, he was not that Little Scoundrel. Forming a good bond was a good thing.

[Primordial Giant Turtle sent Willow God an exclusive Red Packet!]

[Huowu is Forever My Goddess: Dear Group Leader, your most loyal little brother is almost at Sea God Island. I wonder if you have time to watch me receive the Sea God Legacy!]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: Mm. Send me a message when you arrive. I'll give you the Vast Sea Universe Cover.]

[Peach Blossom Island Little Cook: Feng Xiaotian, you really are a suck-up. I was lucky enough to witness the Big Shot make a trade today. I've already started cultivating the Nine Yin Manual. I'm going to become a Big Shot! Keep it up, keep it up!]

[Burn, Burn for Me: Jealous!]

[Half-Split Thor: The Group Leader Big Shot really is incredible. My big brother and I have both cultivated the Golden Light Technique.

It completely crushes every movement technique on Earth. Let's see if I can exchange for the Group Leader's Divine Turtle Sea Suppressing Strength later...]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: Divine Turtle Sea Suppressing Strength doesn't suit you. You cultivate thunder techniques. Although mine focuses on the body, it is more suited to water techniques in the Early Stage.]

When Shen Fei saw Thor say that he wanted to learn his Cultivation Method, he sent a message. He did not want to mislead anyone, so after hesitating for a moment, he continued typing in the group.

[Primordial Giant Turtle uploaded Thunder Emperor Fist, gaining 20,000 Points.]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: This Thunder Emperor Fist should suit you quite well. It was also derived from your Nine-Layered Thunder Blade.

It has nine layers. Once you master the first layer, you can draw down Heavenly Thunder and blast out a Sea of Thunder. It should allow you to break through the defense of the juvenile Golden Horned Beast.]

Swallowed Star World.

Thor stared wide-eyed at the message in the Group Chat. Seeing his expression, Hong could not help asking, "Did something happen?"

"Mm. I said I wanted to exchange for the Group Leader's Divine Turtle Sea Suppressing Strength, but he said it didn't suit me. Then he uploaded a technique called the Thunder Emperor Fist, derived from my Nine-Layered Thunder Blade. He said that once I mastered the first layer, I could blast out a Sea of Thunder."

"A Sea of Thunder!"

Hong also knew that many Martial Artists liked to give their techniques exaggerated names. His spear technique, World Destroyer, was an example.

But if it came from that mysterious Group Leader, it was very likely a literal description...

"How many Points? Do we have enough to exchange for it?"

"Forty thousand Points! I was originally planning to use them to improve my strength, but now I feel it would be better to exchange for this Cultivation Method."

"Mm, exchange for it. Besides, your current strength is somewhat unstable. It would be better to first master a stronger martial technique."

Hong nodded.

Thor glanced at Hong before sending another message in the Chat Group.

[Half-Split Thor: Group Leader, do you have any Cultivation Methods related to light? If you do, I can find anything you need for you...]

Thor waited nervously for Shen Fei's response. Hong's comprehension was far, far greater than his. If there was a suitable Cultivation Method for him, Thor definitely had to exchange for it.

[Primordial Giant Turtle: Light? No.]

[Half-Split Thor: All right.]

Thor looked disappointed at Shen Fei's words, but Shen Fei's next message quickly made him excited again.

[Primordial Giant Turtle uploaded Water Sovereign Fist, gaining 30,000 Points.]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: Are you looking for a Cultivation Method for Hong? The World Destroyer Spear he cultivates emphasizes spiral force. This Water Sovereign Fist contains insights into spiral force, so it should help him draw inferences from one instance.]

[Half-Split Thor: All right, thank you, Group Leader!]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: If both of you master them, then so long as your minds are united, you may be able to master the fist technique I created, the Water Sovereign Thunder Emperor Fist.

When the time comes, even the Golden Horned Beast will only be shattered by a single punch from you two.]

Shen Fei withdrew his attention from the Chat Group. As he swam through the sea, he continued refining the Profound Heavy Stele.

Spiritual energy from the seawater flowed endlessly into his body. After mastering the World's Ruin, the amount of spiritual energy he could inhale and exhale was terrifying.

Not only was he absorbing the spiritual energy within the seawater, but he was also drawing in and refining crystals condensed from spiritual energy.

Although nearly all of it was water-attributed, water gave rise to wood, and wood qi continued accumulating.

In an instant, the Law of Thunder within his primordial spirit exploded onto the accumulated Innate Wood Qi.

A wisp of Fire Qi was born atop the Innate Wood Qi.

In the blink of an eye, endless spiritual energy was refined. Boundless water qi transformed into wood qi, feeding that tiny flame.

Wood gave rise to fire. Wood burned, and fire blazed!

Innate Fire Qi erupted, and Shen Fei stepped into the middle stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm...

A Grand Unity Golden Immortal capable of beating up a Great Luo.

Shen Fei shook his head. It was only a minor interlude, and he continued swimming through the water.

Other living beings needed to seek out Innate Five Elements qi to construct their own Five Elements.

Why did they need external objects?

Because their own accumulation was insufficient; they had to take from surplus to make up for deficiency.

Shen Fei's accumulation was enough to make him a Great Luo already. He was merely balancing his Essence, Qi, and Spirit now. How could he possibly lack accumulation? Even if there were losses, it did not matter.

Having abundant Essence and Qi was simply overbearing.

Shen Fei was heading toward the East Sea. The East Sea had more treasures than the North Sea.

It would be easier to find treasures there.

Besides, given Kunpeng's temperament, Shen Fei could already imagine that after the sermon ended and those Mangy Birds grew stronger, they would definitely come looking to cause him trouble.

One restriction after another within the Profound Heavy Stele was refined, and Shen Fei finally sensed the change in its weight. At the same time, an endless stream of the Law of Earth emerged within his consciousness.

The Profound Heavy Stele contained the Law of Earth. Refining one restriction was equivalent to having one earth vein fall upon his body, so it was naturally incomparably heavy. Yet for Shen Fei, even refining all of it might not slow his movements in the slightest.

As he traveled, Shen Fei placed his consciousness into the Chat Group.

[Primordial Giant Turtle: @Stone Village Guardian Spirit, by the way, can I watch Little Rascal's cleansing ritual?]

[Stone Village Guardian Spirit: You are naturally welcome.]

[Daoist on Mount Wudang: At last, I can see another world. This old Daoist is quite curious as well. At the Centennial Birthday Banquet last time, those people actually dared to threaten this old Daoist into handing over Cuishan.

I used the Earth-Traversing Technique to give each of them a slap. They did not even have time to react.]

[Primordial Giant Turtle: True Master Zhang, is it your hundredth birthday?]

[Daoist on Mount Wudang: Turtle Great Immortal, I do not deserve to be called True Master. Just call me Old Daoist Zhang.

Following Senior Huang Rong's suggestion, this old Daoist revealed all the secrets of the so-called 'Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Saber.'

I had no need for those things anyway, but they simply would not let it go. So I gave each of them a slap!]

[Peach Blossom Island Little Cook: Hahaha, True Master Zhang is truly domineering! What did he say? If anyone dared to cause trouble today, they could either beat this old Daoist to death, or be beaten to death by this old Daoist on the spot!]

[Daoist on Mount Wudang: However, when I made those people properly offer birthday congratulations, the Chat Group said I had altered the Fate Trajectory of the Chosen One and awarded me 1,000 Points...]

Shen Fei looked at the message Zhang Sanfeng had sent, and his enormous turtle head swayed slightly. Had the Chat Group changed?

Or was this the true nature of the Chat Group?
