Swallowing the Stars: The cheat system only comes when I'm almost a god?
Chapter 18 Invitation
Lin Yuan let the Flame Star Grass absorb resources on its own on Lunna Star, while he took advantage of the holiday to visit his old friends.
After all, although the branch office where he worked was responsible for the business of three nearby cosmic countries, it was far away from the Priest Starfield. Once things got busy, it might be difficult to see each other for hundreds of thousands of years.
This is nothing to him who already possesses eternal life, but for many who have no hope of breaking through, this meeting may very well be their last. Even if the virtual universe can bring people closer, how many people would dare to frequently disturb an immortal god at the core of a virtual universe company?
……
"Ha, it's Lin Yuan! I heard you broke through to the Immortal God realm. That's amazing! Your teacher would be so proud to see that!"
This is a powerful Realm Lord from the Glorious Holy Land, and also Lin Yuan's youngest senior brother. The other senior brothers and sisters either failed to break through to the Realm Lord level and died early, or they tried their best but could not advance to the Immortal realm and died with regrets.
But he is already over ten million years old. Without special opportunities, he will die of old age in tens of thousands of years, just like his senior brothers and sisters.
As for the "master" he mentioned? That powerful Marquis from the glorious Holy Land disappeared more than a million years ago during a secret realm exploration. Otherwise, Lin Yuan wouldn't have had to ask his ancestor for money.
He strongly suspected that the other party had an accident because he had set a flag that he would send him to the primordial universe to comprehend the truth upon his return. His master knew his talent better than his ancestor.
According to the other party, "Lin Yuan's talent is the best among you. It's hard to say what will happen outside, but if he goes to the Initial Universe once, his chances of successfully breaking through are 98%!"
……
"Brother Lin Yuan, I know my potential is limited, and it's basically impossible for me to become an immortal god. I'm not worthy of you. So, Brother Lin Yuan, could you promise me one thing? Please don't forget me in the future!"
This is Varga. Her grandfather is fine, but even a Marquis-level expert can't help her break through to immortality with 100% certainty. Lifespan will eventually have a limit, so this little girl, who is only a little over a million years old, is already worrying about what will happen after she dies.
Although the other girl was very cute, Lin Yuan couldn't make her any promises, so he could only pretend not to understand, which made the girl's face almost turn into a steamed bun with anger.
Lin Yuan lacks confidence in himself. He is still young and his emotions fluctuate. But he doesn't know if, millions or even billions of years later, after witnessing the passing of countless people and surviving alone, he will still have the warmth of a human being and be able to remember those people from the past.
……
This visit to friends lasted for less than a hundred years before it had to be discontinued.
In the past few years, Lin Yuan has seen off another batch of domain lords he knew; many elderly domain lords are also preparing for their funerals; and some domain lords of similar age, after seeing him successfully break through to the Immortal God realm, have a sadly thick barrier separating them.
Wherever he goes, people usually congratulate him first, but then inevitably he is subjected to a baptism of pessimism!
Thinking about everything he had seen and heard over the past few decades, Lin Yuan shook his head: "I'd better go play with my friends in the group!"
Although the others in the chat group are not as good as him now, at least one Ye Tiandi and one Meng Yuanshi will emerge in the future. They are also masters with infinite lifespans. In addition, everyone's status in the group is relatively equal. It is much more comfortable to be with them than to talk to others about when they will die every day.
……
In the chat group, a few people were chatting idly.
[Zhang Zhiwei: Junior Brother Ye, how's your Five Thunder Orthodox Technique cultivation going?]
[Ye Fan: It's alright. It's much better than the cultivation techniques I snatched from several small sects in Yan Kingdom. I feel like the development of my Ancient Sacred Body has been much faster.]
[Ye Fan: By the way, I recently had a stroke of luck and obtained the Dao Scripture Wheel Sea Scroll. Senior Brother, would you like a copy? I can send you one.]
[Zhang Zhiwei: Ahem, please have one. I've almost mastered the techniques in the Celestial Master's Manual, but I still don't feel any sense of ascension. I don't know why.]
[Meng Qi: Senior brothers, I want one too! My merit points are almost at 1000. After the next cycle of reincarnation ends, I can exchange them for the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts Opening Chapter, and I'll teach it to you then.]
"Ding! Group member Ye Fan uploaded a group red envelope containing the Daoist Scripture (Sea of Wheels)," available to all group members.
[Ye Fan: Ahem, let me make this clear first, Senior Brother isn't after the Eight-Nine Arcane Technique. I'm just worried that you might encounter some danger in the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Having increased strength will provide you with more protection.]
The Eight-Nine Arcane Technique! Just the name sounds perfect for someone with his Ancient Sacred Body to cultivate.
"I, Ye Fan, will become the toughest man in the entire world of Shrouding the Heavens!" He thought to himself, "So what if the Great Emperor Wushi wields an imperial weapon? I'll do the same when I'm a quasi-emperor, and establish my prestige first."
"That way, when I'm old in my first life, my highly nourishing imperial blood will definitely attract more supreme beings from forbidden zones. At that time, hehehe..."
As for the so-called Creation Tribulation? Would Emperor Ye, who has been targeted by heavenly tribulations his entire life, be afraid? Moreover, before he cultivates to a level comparable to a Celestial King with the Eight-Nine Arcane Technique, the Creation Tribulation wouldn't even give him a second thought!
Just then...
[System Notification: Administrator Lin Yuan has received the "Daoist Scripture (Sea of Wheels Scroll)"]
[Lin Yuan: Hello everyone, it's been ages! How have you all been lately?]
Ye Fan: ???
[Meng Qi: Wow, isn't this Xiao Yuanzi? You haven't posted in ages!]
"Xiao Yuanzi?"
Xiao Meng is getting cocky again!
[Lin Yuan: Xiao Meng, you're floating around like this again. It seems your strength has improved a lot. I suppose you've already obtained the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, Outer Realm Chapter. I wonder when you're planning to pay back the debt you owe me?]
Meng Qi pretended to be dead, and then left the group!
This is of course impossible.
[Meng Qi: I was wrong, I was wrong. Please, great immortal deity Lin Yuan, don't hold it against this little monk. I will begin my third cycle of reincarnation in half a month. I will send you the Enlightenment Chapter then...]
After saying a lot of nice things, it seems that Xiao Meng is a bit of a masochist now, using the chat group to relieve the pressure of reincarnation.
Lin Yuan was already very familiar with the process: provoking him – being suppressed – admitting his mistake at lightning speed!
The reason why Meng Qi only provoked himself was quite simple.
Whitebeard's relationship with the other people in the group was just so-so, or rather, they all sensed Old Zhang's indifferent attitude towards him, so they intentionally or unintentionally distanced themselves from him.
Zhang Zhiwei is Xiao Meng and Ye Fan's nominal senior brother. The secret techniques of Longhu Mountain that he taught them make them more composed in dangerous situations. In addition, even though he can regenerate his white hair, he still appears as an old man. When facing Old Zhang, the two of them will unconsciously be more respectful, and they can't joke around.
Ye Fan? He's in a similar situation to Xiao Meng; he can't directly suppress Meng Qi when he causes trouble, so…
Lin Yuan was speechless: "So being easy to talk to is the reason he dares to provoke me?"
……
[System Notification: Whitebeard has received the "Taoist Scripture (Sea of Wheels)"]
[Whitebeard: Gurarara! As expected of Lord Lin Yuan, he gets a red envelope as soon as he logs in. Envious.jpg]
During Lin Yuan's period of silence, although other people in the group also traded some cultivation techniques with him for a few ordinary Devil Fruits, their relationship was purely transactional, and they all sent designated red envelopes. This was the second red envelope that Whitebeard had encountered in the group besides Lin Yuan's millennium spiritual marrow, which everyone could receive.
[Ye Fan: Whitebeard, how's it going? Before you logged off last time, you said you were going to find a way to deal with Akainu. Is there any result now?]
[Whitebeard: Gurarara! I'm Whitebeard! How could I possibly miss?]
[Whitebeard: @Lin Yuan, sir, I will send you the Magma Fruit right away.]
"Ding! Group member Whitebeard sent Lin Yuan a designated red envelope."
[Whitebeard: Everyone, I'll stop here for now. The World Government, together with the remnants of the Beasts and Big Big Wolf's pirate crew, are attacking us. My sons might not be able to handle it without me, so I'm logging off.]
After saying that, the profile picture quickly changed from color to grayscale.
Lin Yuan: Ah... this is really energetic.
[Meng Qi: The old man is indeed decisive. After recovering to his peak, he took on Akainu without hesitation. Now, it's clear he's going to take on the whole world single-handedly!]
It's important to understand that while the other members of the White Clan can also enhance their strength using the Millennium Spirit Essence, they haven't broken free from their shackles like the White Beard. Their talents will prevent them from climbing even higher mountains.
Among the Whitebeard Pirates' captains, only the three or four who were originally the strongest might eventually reach Admiral-level strength. But even if they reach their limit, the Whitebeard Pirates' overall strength will never surpass that of the Rocks Pirates, whose fate is already clear...
[Ye Fan: I wish Whitebeard success!]
[Zhang Zhiwei: I wish him success.]
He disliked the little book, but he disliked the Celestial Dragons and their bunch of human worms even more. If Whitebeard could really overthrow that twisted world, he, Tian Tong Dao Ren, wouldn't mind accepting this little book, which had a bit of humanity, back.
……
After putting away the rock berry fruit, Lin Yuan remembered something else.
[Lin Yuan: By the way, Lao Zhang, how long has it been since you arrived? Has the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony started yet?]
Old Zhang is so slow! Xiao Meng is almost undergoing his third cycle of reincarnation, and Whitebeard has already caused a huge disturbance all over the world, yet he still hasn't brought over his Six Treasuries of Immortal Thieves.
[Zhang Zhiwei: It's been over a month since I joined the chat group. The younger generation of extraordinary individuals are gradually arriving at Longhu Mountain. The ceremony officially begins in three days. Would Fellow Daoist Lin like to come and take a look? My two junior brothers are also welcome to come and have some fun.]
Lin Yuan: Okay, call me when the time comes, I want to join in the fun.
Lin Yuan did not refuse the other party's invitation, or rather, he had been waiting for this opportunity.
The group teleportation function was discovered on the first day they joined the chat group, but no one dared to let others into their world because they couldn't be sure of their true character. What if they were just faking it when they were chatting?
Even in the world of Under One Person, where time flows the slowest, more than a month has passed. The group members have a deeper understanding of each other. This invitation from Lao Zhang is the last test. Anyway, if the person comes with malicious intent, he can expel them with a thought. At worst, he can just reduce contact in the future.
[Meng Qi: Senior brother, I don't think I can go. Too many people are watching me. If I suddenly disappear right under their noses, I'll probably be dragged straight to the Tushita Palace when I get back.]
[Ye Fan: I can make the trip. Pang Bo and I don't have anything to do at the Tai Xuan Sect, so it's a good opportunity to meet up in person.]
Although Pang Bo was still targeted by powerful demons at the Azure Emperor's tomb, they were prepared and used a Buddhist prayer bead that they had specially left behind to suppress him.
Left with no other choice, the 19th generation descendant of the Azure Emperor had to agree to become Pang Bo's personal grandfather, thus resolving all of Ye Fan's major crises in the early stages.
