Chat Group: People in Douluo Continent wreak havoc across the heavens

Chapter 135 Reaching the Other Shore, Extraordinary Phenomena Emerge [Happy New Year's Eve]

For the past seven days, Lu Xian has been carefully and diligently refining the Xuanhuang Qi, unable to spare much attention, and he hasn't even checked the messages in the group chat much.

Finally able to relax, I took a moment to reflect on my recent improvements and then casually opened the chat group interface, scrolling through the chat history to learn about the various events that had occurred during this time.

Ye Fan has already entered seclusion in the Fire Domain to refine the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron. In terms of cultivation progress, he is slightly slower than Lu Xian, and there is still a short distance to the peak of the Divine Bridge realm.

With the same resources, the cultivation of the Ancient Sacred Body is slower than that of other physiques. Ye Fan used to be able to say that although he was slow, once he broke through, he would be invincible among his peers and could suppress everything.

He'll probably get a beating from Lu Xian and be suppressed on the spot within ten moves.

As for Xiao Yan, he has now arrived at the Tagor Desert and successfully obtained the fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame Map. Xuanbing Longxiang had also uploaded a copy to the group long ago. At this moment, Xiao Yan is on his way to the Snake-People Clan's royal palace. He is going to find Queen Medusa to have a contest for the ownership of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. While seizing the strange flame, he will also temper his own foundation.

During Lu Xian's seclusion, Qi Lin returned to Earth from Tiancheng. With the possession of a third-generation divine body, she now had the means to indulge in some recklessness. According to Qi Lin, Earth was actively preparing for war. Although she carried angel genes, her heart remained that of China. She would always be a loyal warrior to China and would fight for China forever, either dying a glorious death or continuing to fight until the day peace arrived!

Apart from those few people, the lives of the rest of the group members seemed to be relatively peaceful, and Lu Xian couldn't glean anything from their chat history.

After briefly understanding the situation of the group members, Lu Xian turned his attention to Xuanbing Longxiang. Whether it's strong or not is a matter of one version, but whether it's cool or not is a matter of a lifetime. The budget-burning series, download!

Lu Xian downloaded the Mystic Ice Dragon Soaring game.

Without even needing to spread the word in a chat group, Lu Xian quickly understood the profound principles of the Mysterious Ice Dragon Soaring technique after just a couple of glances. His innate learning body was as powerful as ever, but he still needed to spend some time modifying it before he could actually use this fighting technique.

[Ye Fan: Yo! Brother Lu? After seven days of silence, you've finally revived?]

[Lu Xueqi: Have you successfully crossed the other shore?]

[Lu Xian: Not yet. I just reached the peak of the Divine Bridge. I'm only one step away from leaping across the Sea of ​​Bitterness and reaching the other shore.]

[Ye Fan: According to the Daoist scriptures, when one crosses the Divine Bridge to the other side, the calamity of getting lost will occur. You went into seclusion for seven days without a word, and I thought you were lost and wouldn't be able to come back. I was almost ready to pop open some champagne to celebrate!]

[Lu Xian: ?]

[Lu Xian: Ye Hei, I think you're itching for a beating and want me to loosen your skin?]

[Ye Fan: Arrogant!]

[Ye Fan: You shameless scoundrel! If you hadn't cheated last time, I would have beaten you to a pulp. You stole my title as the strongest fighter in our group using dirty tricks! You're despicable! If you have the guts, wait until the Other Shore Realm cultivators and I, Emperor Ye, have a fair fight!]

[Lu Xian: You've been holding onto this one thing all this time and are still provoking me? Looks like you're really not convinced, you're itching for a beating.]

[Ye Fan: Ah, right, right, right! The tree desires stillness, but the wind will not cease; my skin itches, but I am restless. I so wish for another fair fight! Please, please, loosen my muscles and loosen my skin! It's so itchy, I'm so incredibly itchy!]

Are they getting a little provocative?

Lu Xian smiled coldly when he saw the message.

Ye Hei, you should look at me with new eyes after three days of separation. You probably have no idea how hard my fist is right now!

[Lu Xian: If a dog's skin itches, give it a good whack! If anyone's skin itches, Lu Xian will be there too!]

[Lu Xian: Ye Hei, I'll give you a fair chance to fight on the other side. You're welcome to challenge me for the title of the strongest fighter in my chat group anytime!]

[Ye Fan: Is that true?]

[Lu Xian: Really?!]

[Ye Fan: Everyone saw it! Please bear witness for me: if Lu Gou cheats again, we should all join together to punish him!]

[Xiao Yan: This is quite a spectacle, it seems I, the Flame Emperor, must join in! Open the betting odds! No matter who you bet on, the odds are 1 to 1!]

[Xiao Yan: Now it's time for strength analysis! We know that in the last battle at the Monster Mountain Range, both sides had their Life Springs, and Ye Gou had the upper hand. However, Lu Gou lacked sportsmanship, broke the rules, and forcibly stole the title of the strongest fighter in the chat group. Based on the information we have, Ye Gou's chances of winning in the future will be even higher!]

[Xiao Yan: But Lu Gou dares to accept the challenge so openly now, he must think he's invincible again and might have a backup plan. The situation is now about 50/50. Let's wait and see who will win!]

[Xiao Yan: Everyone can now place their bets. Please make sure your bets are placed by Emperor Yan Xiao Yan. Emperor Yan Xiao Yan reserves the right of final interpretation. Contestants themselves are not allowed to place bets to prevent match-fixing!]

[Yan Ling Ji: Interesting. I'll bet three time-travel talismans. Lu Gou wins!]

[Lu Xueqi: Three cards in a row, Lu the dog wins!]

[Zhang Chulan: Bet five cards, my godfather wins!]

[Qilin: Place a bet, the Immortal King wins!]

Ye Fan: ?

[Ye Fan: Damn, not a single person is beating me?]

Ye Fan was a little defensive. Last time, I was the one who had the upper hand, wasn't I?

So you all bet on Lu Gou to win?

[Xiao Yan: Good heavens, 12 time-travel talismans crushed Lu Gouying, this is something I didn't expect. Ye Hei, it seems everyone doesn't have high hopes for you, tsk tsk!]

[Lu Xian: Little Yanzi, you still have time to mock Ye Hei? You should be thinking about whether you'll go bankrupt later.]

[Xiao Yan: Ha, you're underestimating the power of the Flame Emperor! You think a mere twelve cards can bankrupt me? Besides, who knows, it might just be a windfall!]

Besides Lu Xian, Xiao Yan has the most time-travel talismans in the group, probably dozens by now. Winning or losing doesn't really affect him much.

[Lu Xian: I'll make you two cry your eyes out.]

[Lu Xian: @Qi Lin @Zhang Chulan, is it almost Chinese New Year on Earth?]

[Qilin: It's indeed almost Chinese New Year, with New Year's Eve in five days. However, it's highly unlikely we'll have a good New Year. The atmosphere in China is extremely tense right now. The army is frequently being mobilized, actively preparing for war. The people are filled with anxiety, and everyone is staying indoors. Many people are fleeing the cities.]

[Zhang Chulan: Chinese New Year? I haven't experienced what it's like to have a family reunion during Chinese New Year in a long time. This year, I'm afraid I won't be able to have a good New Year either...]

[Lu Xian: Are you having difficulties?]

[Zhang Chulan: There aren't any difficulties, it's just... (10-second voice recording)]

Lu Xian clicked on the voice message with a puzzled look, and then heard a song that made people feel sad and brought tears to their eyes.

"Iron gate, iron windows, iron chains, I lean against the iron window and look outside..."

[Xiao Yan: Tears behind bars? Could it be he's in prison?]

[Zhang Chulan: Hmm... The source of large sums of cash is unclear. I was investigated for selling a large amount of gold. They said the gold my godfather gave me was from tomb raiding. I really...]

Lu Xian: ...

[Ye Fan: Let me laugh for a bit first, hahaha.]

[Xiao Yan: How long should I wait?]

[Zhang Chulan: I don't know, my uncle is taking me to give a statement...]

The world under one person.

Inside a bright, small room.

Zhang Chulan sat uncomfortably on an iron chair, his feet locked, his hands resting on a rusty iron tray, though he could still move.

Behind a desk in front of him sat two men in hats. One wore black-rimmed glasses and looked very refined, while the other had a more rugged appearance, a messy beard, and distinctive white hair. He had a loud voice and was in charge of asking questions, while the other, who looked refined, was in charge of taking notes.

"Name."

"Zhang Chulan..."

"gender."

"Uncle, why are you asking this?"

"Stop talking nonsense, tell me your gender!"

"male……"

"age."

"20..."

"Position".

"Nankai University...students..."

"A college student, you're a tomb raider?"

"Uncle, I really didn't rob any graves..."

"Then tell us, kid, where did all that gold you sold come from?"

That gold is all in the same gold coin style, looking like it was pulled out from somewhere. It has already been sent to a professional institution to determine its age.

Zhang Chulan hesitated for a moment, then said tentatively, "I really didn't rob any tombs..."

"Wait a minute!" Xu Si stepped forward and placed a small device on the tray in front of Zhang Chulan: "This is a lie detector. It will make a sound if you lie. Okay, now continue!"

Zhang Chulan said helplessly, "Uncle, I really didn't rob any tombs. Actually, I joined a chat group with many deities. One of them took me in as his godson and gave me a lot of gold..."

Xu San and Xu Si exchanged a glance. Such outrageous news, yet the lie detector didn't react?

Both of them twitched their lips slightly, so it seemed there was only one explanation!

"Go on, why did the deity who adopted you give you gold?"

"My godfather said I'm pretty good!"

"What aspects did you do well?"

"Being a simp..."

"Pfft~" Xu Si spat out the mouthful of tea he had just drunk, coughed a few times, and managed to suppress the urge to spit out his mouth.

"It's alright, laugh if you want," Zhang Chulan sighed. He knew the other party wouldn't believe him if he said it.

"What are you talking about, kid? We're professionals!" Xu Si slammed his hand on the table and said seriously.

"How many people are in your group of immortals?"

"Including me, there are 8 in total..."

Eight? That many?

Xu San and Xu Si exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying a message: "Well, it's normal for people with supernatural abilities to have some mental issues. As long as they receive active treatment, there's still hope. But this kid's condition is quite serious."

The schizophrenia has split into eight parts!

"Could you briefly describe the general personality traits of the other seven deities?"

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Chulan said, "There are four men: one handsome but immoral, one competitive and always trying to surpass the previous one, one with a foul mouth who easily gets beaten up by the two above, a three or four-year-old simple-minded child who is often bullied by the three above, and three women: an ice queen, a gas goddess, and a patriotic policewoman!"

Wow, this illness is way too serious!

Look at how schizophrenic this child has become! Not to mention the male personality, the female personality has split into three now!

Xu San and Xu Si felt that Zhang Chulan had to be sent to a mental hospital for treatment immediately!

Seeing that both of them were expressionless, Zhang Chulan hesitated and said, "Uncle, look, the lie detector didn't go off. I told the truth. Can I leave the police station now?"

"Sure!" Xu San nodded, adjusting his glasses expressionlessly. "Zhang Chulan, right? Wait a moment, I'll go call you a car!"

Zhang Chulan was flattered: "Uncle, you don't need to be so polite, I can just walk back..."

"That won't do! Your condition is very unstable right now; you must accept our treatment!"

"treat……?!!"

Zhang Chulan was dumbfounded.

[Zhang Chulan: Holy crap! They're actually going to send me to a mental hospital!]

[Lu Xian: Why don't you just attack directly? Why waste time arguing with ordinary people? Cultivation is the real business!]

[Zhang Chulan: This isn't a good idea...]

[Xiao Yan: What's wrong with that? Are they going to bomb you with missiles? It's just a small police station. He can run away and go cultivate in the mountains for a month or two. When he comes back, he'll be invincible. Who would dare interfere then? He can do whatever he wants!]

[Zhang Chulan: Okay, then I'll just run away!]

Five minutes later.

[Zhang Chulan: Damn! There's a master among them. How insidious! Luckily I ran fast, or they would have caught up with me. I need to find a place to lay low for a while.]

[Lu Xian: Brothers, it's New Year's Eve in five days, any ideas?]

[Qilin: Does "The Immortal King" mean that everyone should get together for the Lunar New Year?]

[Lu Xian: Clever!]

[Ye Fan: Since I can't go back to my own Earth, getting together with my brothers for the New Year doesn't seem so bad.]

[Xiao Yan: So, whose world are we going to this time?]

[Lu Xian: Since it's Chinese New Year, we should go to a place with a festive atmosphere. The only worlds in the group that fit the criteria are Qi Lin and Xiao Zhang's! Which one to choose? It's up to you!]

[Qilin: I probably don't have the festive spirit here, only the smell of gunpowder!]

[Zhang Chulan: Godfather, come to me! Let those bastards witness your incredible abilities, and let them know I'm really not mentally ill!]

[Lu Xian: How about we go to Xiao Zhang's for a get-together?]

Ye Fan: No objections!

[Xiao Yan: No objections +1!]

[The rest of the group: +1.]

[Lu Xian: It's settled then! We'll go to Xiao Zhang's place to celebrate the New Year together five days from now, on New Year's Eve!]

After making arrangements with everyone in the group, Lu Xian began to continue his seclusion.

He is now only one step away from the Other Shore Realm, and his soul power is about to break through to the Soul King Realm. Five days should be enough!

As the Daoist scriptures circulated, the essence placed around him began to surge into his body once again, and Lu Xian quietly closed his eyes.

His cultivation level had already reached the peak of the Divine Bridge Realm. However, as soon as he entered meditation to break through, he experienced an abnormality. His vision became blurry, and he could not see anything, as if he had lost his way in a thick fog.

At this moment, all five senses, including spiritual perception, became blurred.

"Is this the calamity of being lost that the Taoist scriptures speak of?"

Lu Xian murmured that if he could not see through the illusion before him, he would be trapped on this side of the Divine Bridge forever, his cultivation completely halted. This was a process of questioning his own heart.

The greater a cultivator's potential, the more difficult this hurdle will be for them.

Lu Xian remained calm, showing no panic whatsoever. He saw through the fog, crossed the sea, and reached the other shore!

Lu Xian closed his eyes, motionless, as silent as a fossil, and asked himself, "Where is my other shore?"

"Ha!" he suddenly sneered.

"Why search for the other shore? I will find it wherever I want it!"

"Even if it's required in Bili, it has to stay!"

"Open it for me!"

"Boom!"

In just a moment, the surrounding clouds and mist surged and quickly dissipated, the sky and earth became clear, and everything was right before our eyes.

Lu Xian's five senses were restored. He saw through the calamity of being lost and officially stepped into the other shore realm. His spiritual perception was even more acute than before. A mysterious radiance enveloped him, and his body and mind seemed to have been baptized, making him even stronger!

Lu Xian's mind sank into his sea of ​​consciousness. At this moment, the rainbow bridge became even thicker and more robust, crystal clear, surrounded by dazzling light and divine glow. The rainbow bridge was like a purple-gold beam spanning the sea, leading to an unknown distance.

Lu Xian stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge and walked along it. Just as he said, wherever he wanted to be on the other side, that was the other side. He crossed the sea in one step and arrived at the end. This was a pure land, with clouds and mist floating around. In the high sky, he vaguely saw a huge Taoist palace.

The clouds and mist obscured the view, and the Dao Palace appeared in a flash. The other shore was not yet perfected, and the Dao Palace was untouchable. This was just a fleeting moment.

Lu Xian looked down at the Bitter Sea.

"what?"

"The runes of the Bitter Sea have actually condensed into pages of a book?"

"What does this mean?"
