All the heavens, starting as the ruler of the universe

When the notification popped up that the chat group upgrade was complete, Ao Qing was idly flipping through an old, worn-out book in the Dragon Palace.

He opened the panel and immediately saw the newly appeared button – [Start Live Stream].

"How do I use this thing?" he muttered, tapping it. A prompt immediately popped up on the panel: [Enable live video streaming? The live stream will display your current world view to all group members in real time.]

Ao Qing paused for a moment, then excitedly wagged its tail.

"Of course I'll open it!" He confirmed without hesitation.

[Group member Ao Qing is currently live streaming.]

Everyone in the chat group received a notification that Ao Qing had started a live stream.

Lin Yan clicked in and saw that Ao Qing was sitting cross-legged on a pillar, talking about something.

"Come on, come on, this trip wasn't in vain. Let me show you the Dragon Palace."

Ao Qing slid down from the pillar, his figure swayed, and he instantly transformed into a young man dressed in a black robe.

His robe was dark blue with dark patterns embroidered on the cuffs, resembling dragon scales. He flicked his sleeves and grinned at the camera.

At this moment, the view in the live stream also changed as Ao Qing moved around.

The broken luminous pearl emitted a faint glow, illuminating the mottled walls and the shaky pillars inside the hall.

He walked over to a pillar and tapped it with his hand: "This is a ten-thousand-year-old cold jade pillar. The old Dragon King dug it up from the depths of the North Sea. It is warm in winter and cool in summer."

As Ao Qing moved, several pieces of debris fell from the crack in the pillar.

Ao Qing's voice betrayed a hint of guilt, "Although there are some cracks now, it's... alright, it hasn't collapsed yet."

Peter Parker sent a string of exclamation marks in the group chat: "Your Dragon Palace is built with such good stuff? This is so extravagant!"

Ao Qing chuckled: "Of course, our Dragon Clan was once the overlord of the East Sea, and we were very wealthy back then."

As she spoke, she walked to a corner and pointed the camera at a pile of messy storage bags. "Unfortunately, my family has fallen on hard times, and I have squandered all my wealth, leaving only this little bit. Although most of it has lost its spiritual energy, it still makes me feel at ease."

"Where's that thing Brother Lin left for you?" You Lingfeng was also looking at it.

Ao Qing paused for a moment, then patted his stomach: "That thing is in my dantian. What, Brother Feng, you want one too? But I think this thing was made by Brother Lin using his golden core. There aren't many golden core cultivators left among us."

"We're starting to feel like villains, using Golden Core cultivators as consumables, and it's like we're selling products," Liu Ming said, trembling.

"Sigh, how could I be a villain?" Ao Qing rolled his eyes. "I'm a great good guy—no, a good dragon. You want my life, so I'll turn you into a magical weapon. That's called self-defense, understand?"

"I do have that idea, but could we make a similar device using the core inside the giant beast?" You Lingfeng didn't know if Lin Yan was watching Ao Qing's live stream.

"You can just ask Brother Lin about this." Ao Qing was taken aback.

"As long as it's an energy core, there's no problem," Lin Yan commented in the live chat.

Upon seeing Lin Yan's comments, You Lingfeng turned off the live stream and sent Lin Yan a private message: "Brother Lin, if possible, I would like to ask you to help me refine a device similar to Ao Qing's."

"Sure, just prepare the materials." Lin Yan readily agreed, since this was no challenge for him at all.

"Then I thank you in advance, Brother Lin." You Lingfeng added, "I'll cover the source points for you to purchase the interdimensional teleportation talisman later."

"No need, just prepare the materials and tell me. The administrator has permission to go directly to the group members' chat."

After the update, Lin Yan gained the status of an administrator in the chat group. One of the functions of the administrator status is that he can travel through the worlds of group members every week without any cost.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other party agrees.

"That would be even better," You Lingfeng continued. "I'll go prepare the materials now, and I'll let you know when they're ready, Brother Lin."

"Sure." Lin Yan also really wanted to go and see You Lingfeng, who had always been very mysterious in the group.

After the two finished talking, Ao Qing had already swum outside the Dragon Palace to show everyone the strange and wonderful creatures in the deep sea.

"Come on, let me show you something fun." Ao Qing pointed his gaze at a crevice in a coral reef.

Inside was a small, dark creature, its body constantly changing shape. Its two little eyes were squeezed together, and its mouth stretched to its ears, making it look like a crumpled rag.

When the thing saw Ao Qing, it didn't hide. Instead, it slowly squeezed out from the gap and arched towards Ao Qing.

"Ugly, isn't it?" Ao Qing's tone was tinged with laughter. "I call it a shapeshifter. Don't let its ugly appearance fool you, it has a very good temper. It comes to the entrance of the Dragon Palace every few days, waiting for me to throw it food."

The thing seemed to recognize Ao Qing, rubbing against his hand and making a purring sound.

Peter Parker sent a string of question marks in the group chat: "What is this thing??? Is it some kind of extraterrestrial creature???"

"I don't know." Ao Qing reached out and patted the thing's head.

"It was here when I arrived. It might be a descendant of a pet that ran away from the Dragon Palace, or it might be a monster that grew out of the deep sea. Anyway, it doesn't bite, but it's edible."

Ao Qing took out a dull bead from his storage bag and threw it into the creature's mouth.

The shapeshifter crunched away, wagged its tail contentedly, and then retreated back into the coral reef.

"Wow, that's incredibly extravagant! They're feeding such huge pearls to their pets like candy," Peter Parker exclaimed.

"If you like them, I'll put a few on the shelves later. You can buy a few if you like." Ao Qing didn't mention that he had a special room to store these pearls that didn't have much spiritual energy.

"I'd like to buy a few and take them back to exchange for money, but that would draw attention to me, so I'll pass." Peter Parker didn't want his identity to be known so soon.

"What are you afraid of? You're not the Parker from the original story, so what's there to worry about?" Kara said. These days, she spends her days lying in Wayne Manor sunbathing, constantly teasing the old bat beside her about having offspring.

"Let's talk about it later. We're not that short of money right now." Peter Parker resisted the temptation.

"By the way, where is your storyline?" Kara was currently idle. She had seen that the Flash movie's plot ended there, and she didn't know what happened next, so Kara was very relaxed.

"I don't know..." Peter Parker sent a helpless emoji.

"I've seen The Amazing Spider-Man, but what's happening now doesn't resemble the original story at all."

"What did you do to cause the plot to deviate so drastically?"

"I didn't do anything, but that Dr. Lizard has never appeared at the school. It seems he went to a high-tech company." Peter Parker did investigate, but he didn't know why the plot had deviated so much.

"Is it possible... that there's more than one transmigrator in your world?" Ao Qing suddenly had a flash of inspiration and proposed a hypothesis.
