Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 262 If all else fails, call in reinforcements!
As early as when he completed the first phase of the task, Lin Yu was promoted to the first administrator of the chat group.

But since then, even when group members have reached his contribution level at that time, they have not been able to trigger the administrator trial.

Based on this phenomenon, Lin Yu had long suspected that there might be some hidden requirements for administrator qualifications.

For example, a new administrator can only be added when a chat group reaches a certain stage, or a new administrator can only be added when the number of group members reaches a certain standard.

That's why, upon seeing the unusual surge in mission targets, Lin Yu immediately connected the two.

Of course, all of the above are just Lin Yu's personal speculations.

As for the truth, we'll have to wait and see what happens in five months...

[Su Haoming: 16 difference, if I max out the daily limit, it will take exactly 160 days]

[Su Haoming: Brothers, we're getting fired up again in the chat group!]

The group members perked up and joined in with laughter and cheers.

Once the hype surrounding the topic subsided slightly, the group members resumed their usual casual conversations.

[Yun Ye: @Su Haoming, I remember you had already reached the peak of the ninth level a week ago, right?]

[Yun Ye: How's the Foundation Establishment progress going?]

[Su Haoming: Don't even mention it...]

[Su Haoming: Doesn't Foundation Establishment require fusing the mana in the Qi Sea with the innate Qi?]

[Su Haoming: I made a special trip to Lao He's world a couple of days ago and managed to draw out the primordial Qi there, but I still have no clue how to fuse these two things...]

[Fan Xian: This shouldn't be happening.]

[Fan Xian: Have you asked Brother Lin yet?]

【Su Haoming: ……】

[Su Haoming: I've already asked.]

[Su Haoming: My elder brother said that after he guided out the primordial Qi, the two naturally merged. He doesn't understand why I encountered this problem.]

[Yun Ye: That's wonderful!]

Yun Ye retracted a message.

[Yun Ye: I mean, hitting a bottleneck is a good thing. It's a good time to reflect and mature. Once I reach the peak of the ninth level, we can study it together!]

【Su Haoming: !!!】

[Su Haoming: Pretend I didn't see this?!]

[Fan Xian: Oh?]

[Fan Xian: @Yun Ye, does that mean you've also advanced to the ninth level?]

[Yun Ye: Luckily, luckily!]

[Yun Ye: Wait, too?]

[Fan Xian: Luckily, luckily!]

【Su Haoming: ……】

[Su Haoming: Damn it, I had you guys far ahead of me, but now I've hit this damn bottleneck, and even Lao Fan has caught up!]

[He Jingfeng: You should be content!]

[He Jingfeng: As the saying goes, "Dharma, wealth, companions, and land are all good things to have like-minded people!"]

[He Jingfeng: Unlike my path of cultivating Qi through spiritual seeds, which is unique in the chat group now, I doubt anyone will choose to follow the same path as me in the future.]

[Xiao Yan: What?!]

[Xiao Yan: Brother He actually follows the path of Qi cultivation?]

He Jingfeng: ...

[He Jingfeng: What's the problem?]

Xiao Yan: It's nothing, it's nothing.

[Xiao Yan: I bought quite a few of the tech products Brother He listed. I thought you'd achieved a technological breakthrough!]

[Su Haoming: Hahahaha!]

After chatting for a while, Xiao Yan closed the chat group with a smile, ending his rest period for the day.

After leaping off the cliff, Xiao Yan glanced around the valley and noticed that the hut was still brightly lit.

Outside the door, a slender figure dressed in a plain white dress sat on a small chair, leaning against the door panel, her head bowed and absorbed in the colorful scroll in her hands by the light of the fire.

As if hearing footsteps not far away, Little Fairy Doctor's expression shifted slightly, and she turned her gaze to the black-haired boy with a gentle smile under the moonlight.

"Is the cultivation finished?"

"Ah."

"Why did it take so long today? The food I prepared is all cold..."

Little Fairy Doctor gave him a reproachful look, then put away the scroll, stood up and said with a smile, "I'll go heat it up for you."

Hearing such gentle words, Xiao Yan's heart was slightly touched.

He sighed inwardly, took a step forward, and followed Little Fairy Doctor into the wooden house. Then he sat down at the dining table and silently watched the busy figure in the kitchen.

Only after the food was served did Xiao Yan seem to make a decision, suddenly raising his head and saying:

"Little Fairy Doctor".

"Ok?"

"I might have to leave tomorrow..."

The beautiful figure who had just sat down opposite her stiffened slightly, then said softly, "Is it because of Nalan Yanran?"

Since Xiao Yan had already read Battle Through the Heavens, his trust in Little Fairy Doctor far exceeded that of him at this stage in the original novel.

Therefore, during their time living together in the valley, he had already revealed his identity to Little Fairy Doctor, and Little Fairy Doctor thus learned of his three-year agreement with Nalan Yanran. "Hmm."

Xiao Yan responded softly, then took out more than ten jade bottles and instructed, "These are the Sacred Flame Pills I recently refined. Together with the ones you have, they should last you three or four years."

"..."

Little Fairy Doctor looked at Xiao Yan opposite her with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, she also took out more than ten jade bottles.

“I remember you said that after leaving the Monster Mountain Range, the next stop would be the Tagor Desert.”

“That’s the territory of the snake people. I was worried that you had been poisoned by snakes, so I specially made some antidote pills. Although they are not as effective as real pills, they can still help you resist snake venom to some extent.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was slightly taken aback.

After they came to their senses, both of them fell silent.

Just then, a slightly disgruntled, childlike roar suddenly came from beside my feet.

Xiao Yan and Little Fairy Doctor were slightly taken aback. Looking down, they saw that Xiao Zi, in her cat form, had somehow squatted under the dining table, staring at Xiao Yan with her large, amethyst-like eyes.

"Roar!"

Seeing that Xiao Yan was still in a daze, Xiao Zi cried out in dissatisfaction again and lowered her head to push her rice bowl forward.

Little Fairy Doctor realized what was happening, and her rosy lips curved slightly. She couldn't help but cover her lips with her hands and smile with her beautiful eyes crinkling.

Xiao Yan, who was opposite her, was also infected by Little Fairy Doctor's laughter and smiled as well, saying with a light laugh, "Don't worry, I'll be right there!"

As he spoke, he took Xiao Zi's rice bowl to the table and poured some of the accompanying amethyst source into it.

Little Purple leaped up and squatted on the dining table, licking it with relish.

Little Fairy Doctor raised her hand and gently stroked the purple kitten.

The slightly somber atmosphere of parting was broken by Xiao Zi's unexpected intrusion.

"As expected, Xiao Zi sees things very clearly!"

"As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people. What in the world is more important than eating?"

Xiao Yan sighed, then looked at Little Fairy Doctor and smiled, "The world may be vast, and the journey may be long, but I believe that we will meet again someday!"

"Ah."

Little Fairy Doctor responded softly and smiled, "Anyway, let's eat first!"

……

……

After bidding farewell to Fairy Doctor, Xiao Yan left the Monster Mountain Range and headed straight for the Tagor Desert.

During this time, he passed through Blackrock City and took the opportunity to obtain the certificate of a second-grade alchemist. At the same time, he successfully devoured the Holy Flame, evolved the Burning Technique to the peak of the Yellow Rank, and his realm also rose to the level of a two-star Great Dou Master.

In the original novel, when Xiao Yan joined the Yunlan Sect, he was only a one-star Great Dou Master.

Now, with more than a year left until the three-year agreement, Xiao Yan has already surpassed this realm, demonstrating just how terrifying his cultivation speed truly is...

Even so, it was still the result of Yao Lao's efforts to suppress his cultivation level.

If there were no restrictions, Xiao Yan's cultivation level would probably rise another five or six stars.

When they arrived at Stone City in the Tagor Desert, about a month had passed since they parted ways with Little Fairy Doctor, which, according to the standards of the All-Heavens Chat Group, was about six days.

Xiao Yan did some mental calculations and realized that he had indeed arrived a bit early.

If you go to search for the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame now, you will likely encounter Queen Medusa, who is also trying to obtain fire.

That's a bit of a hassle...

Queen Medusa has long since reached the peak of the Dou Huang realm, and due to her race, she possesses many powerful secret techniques. Even Xiao Yan, in his current state, would not be her match.

Of course, if Yao Lao were to control his body, he might be able to contend with him.

But simply resisting is far from enough, because what he wants is to subdue the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, not just to fight against Medusa.

As the nineteenth ranked strange fire on the list, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is already extremely dangerous. With the addition of Queen Medusa, even with the help of Yao Lao, it would be very difficult to subdue and devour it.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan sighed and muttered to himself:

"If all else fails, we'll have to call in reinforcements..."

"Trying to call in more players again?"

The old apothecary flew out of the dark storage ring, his face full of black lines, and said, "Whenever you encounter difficulties, you want to call for help. How did I end up taking in such a useless disciple as you?"

"Please don't provoke me!"

Xiao Yan said with a wry smile, "This is the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame!"

The old doctor thought about it and found it made a lot of sense, so he nodded and said, "I'm sorry, I'm used to it..."

Xiao Yan's lips twitched, and a trace of melancholy appeared on his handsome face.

Since spending time with Lin Yu, Yao Lao seemed to have been influenced by him, becoming more unrestrained in his words and actions, and less reserved as a teacher and a powerful figure.

Xiao Yan felt that this might be because he had witnessed too many arguments between Lin Yu and Yao Lao.

Now that his apprentice had already seen his exasperated side, the old apothecary decided to give up and abandon his self-restraint, revealing his more authentic self.

To hone Xiao Yan's skills, Yao Lao would often encourage him to challenge opponents of higher levels.

But Yao Lao was ultimately simple-minded; when he tried to persuade Xiao Yan, he only knew how to use provocation.

Xiao Yan heard it so many times that he became numb to it.

Anyway, he had read the original work and knew what Yao Lao was really thinking, so he couldn't possibly take those words to heart.

Just kidding! If a sixteen-year-old Grand Dou Master isn't up to par, then there are no more promising geniuses on the Dou Qi Continent!
After a moment's thought, the old doctor said in a deep voice, "Just as you said, the strange fire is too important to be lost. Since you think it's not safe to go alone, then call for reinforcements!"

"Since you possess a cross-dimensional artifact, when is a better time to use it?"
