Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 263 Team Up and Cross Over
Upon hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan no longer hesitated and immediately opened the chat group.

However, before tagging the other group members, Xiao Yan paused, seemingly in a dilemma.

Whether considering their relationship or their abilities, Brother Lin is undoubtedly his best choice.

At this moment, Lin Yu was focused on cultivating the World Tree, quickly accumulating activity points each day before going back to lurking and busying himself with his own affairs.

Xiao Yan also bought a lot of water from the Enlightenment Spring, knowing it was best not to disturb Brother Lin now.

After a moment's thought, he decisively changed his mind and decided to find some other helpers.

[Xiao Yan: @Su Haoming, is Brother Su there?]

[Su Haoming: Yes, yes!]

[Su Haoming: What's wrong, Xiao Yanzi? Need your brother's advice on relationship problems?]

[Xiao Yan:...]

[Yun Ye: Hahaha!]

[Yun Ye: That's something that left my brother Yan speechless!]

[Yun Ye: You, a single dog, dare to call yourself a relationship guru?]

[Su Haoming: What are you saying! What are you saying!]

[Su Haoming: You can only see things clearly if you're not involved, understand?]

[Yun Ye: Ah, right, right, right!]

[Fan Xian: He's already like this, what are you still saying? Just go along with it!]

Looking at the cheerful laughter in the group chat, Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile.

[Xiao Yan: Don't misunderstand, my love life is going very smoothly, I don't need to consult you yet]

[Yun Ye: So why are you looking for Lao Su?]

[Xiao Yan: I wanted to ask if there's any progress on the Foundation Establishment chapter...]

【Su Haoming: ……】

[Xiao Yan: Got it, I had no clue!]

[Su Haoming: [Impotent Rage]]

[Su Haoming: You little brat, why do you have to bring up something you don't want to talk about?]

[Xiao Yan: Hehe!]

[Xiao Yan: What I mean is, since arduous cultivation is fruitless, why not go out for a walk and clear your mind?]

[Su Haoming: Oh?]

[Su Haoming: Would you like to invite me over?]

Xiao Yan: I guess so!

[Su Haoming: Pshaw, I don't believe it!]

[Su Haoming: They must be in trouble and want to call in reinforcements!]

[Xiao Yan: Just tell me if you're coming or not!]

[Su Haoming: Nonsense!]

[Su Haoming: Invite me quickly!]

Upon hearing this, the group members who had been lurking all came out.

[He Jingfeng: Wow, are we going to fight our way through the world?]

[He Jingfeng: Can I join?]

[He Jingfeng: Don't worry, you'll be responsible for your own points!]

[Yun Ye: +1]

Lin Lie: +1

Group members responded enthusiastically, and messages scrolled rapidly through the chat box.

In just a few seconds, apart from Lin Yu, Fan Xian, Anz, and Li Shimin who had their own things to do, all the other group members were bombarded with this message.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan was both amused and exasperated.

But at the same time, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

After a moment's thought, he replied, "My main purpose in coming here is to collect the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. I estimate that I only need to deal with Queen Medusa. There's no need for all of you brothers to come out."

[Su Haoming: Queen Medusa? Isn't that her sister-in-law?]

[Yun Ye: Let's be precise, let's look at the timeline, it's not time yet!]

Xiao Yan: [Awkward]

[Bai Zemin: It's a pity I'm only at the fifth level of Qi Cultivation right now]

[Bai Zemin: Since it's Medusa at the peak of the Dou Huang realm, then never mind!]

[He Jingfeng: A mere peak Dou Huang? Count me in!]

[Yun Ye & Lin Lie: +1]

The group members remained incredibly enthusiastic, only thinking about going to the Doupo world to see for themselves, completely disregarding any potential dangers.

Xiao Yan looked helpless, and after pressing for confirmation, he had no choice but to agree to their request.

Ultimately, four group members were confirmed: Yun Ye, Lin Lie, Su Haoming, and He Jingfeng.

These four are all quite strong. Yun Ye and Su Haoming are both at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation. Judging from their combat performance alone, they are comparable to the Dou Huang of the Doupo world.

Especially Su Haoming, who is at the peak of the ninth level, if he disregards the consumption of mana and releases intermediate spells wildly, even a Dou Zong expert would probably be unable to defeat him in a short period of time.

He Jingfeng follows the path of cultivating Qi through spiritual seeds, which does not have the precise realm divisions found in other systems.

But this doesn't mean that his strength is inferior to those group members who follow the magic cultivation system.

In fact, in terms of internal energy alone, even Su Haoming, who was at the peak of the ninth level, could not compare to him. This was because he cultivated both body and mind, and also practiced the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, including the Six Treasures Immortal Thief Technique, plus a spiritual seed. As long as his body could withstand it, he could store energy almost infinitely.

To paraphrase Lin Yu's joke, that's the classic "10,000-level Qi Refining" template.

As for Lin Lie, he was actually the strongest among the four group members.

It's no exaggeration to say that, in the entire chat group, apart from the strongest Lin Yu and Ainz who started at max level, this protagonist with a cheat-like system is the most powerful.

Lin Yu once commented on his strength, saying that if he went all out, he would at least be a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Such terrifying combat power was naturally beyond the reach of Su Haoming and his companions.

It can be said that with Lin Lie around, Xiao Yan could roam freely in the Tagor Desert without any fear!
Looking at the messages in the chat group, Xiao Yan smiled and immediately sent invitations to the four of them.

As for He Jingfeng's comment about being arrogant about points, Xiao Yan pretended not to see it.

Given his personality, how could he possibly let someone spend money when asking for help?
Anyway, it's only a few hundred points. With the support of Doupo's resources, Xiao Yan doesn't lack those points.

Aside from Lin Yu, he is the wealthiest person in the group, and probably only Ainz and He Jingfeng can be compared to him.

In an instant, a burst of silver light appeared, and figures stepped out from it, appearing inside the small inn.

Throughout the entire process, the old doctor did not shy away from anything, remaining suspended in the air and staring at these strangers he had never seen before.

The first to step forward was a handsome young man in brocade robes. Although he looked young, he had an extraordinary air about him, exuding an aura of authority that could only be cultivated by someone who had long held a high position.

"He must be a young and talented man from a noble family..."

As the old apothecary thought this, he released his soul power to secretly sense the boy's strength.

"what?!"

Upon sensing the energy within the boy's body, Yao Lao's pupils constricted, and he couldn't help but show a look of shock.

Judging from the boy's age, he is at most one or two years older than Xiao Yan.

However, the energy contained within its body is comparable to that of a Dou Huang!

...What kind of monstrous genius is this?!
The old doctor was deeply shocked.

But then he realized that his shock had come a little too soon.

Because the young man in white and the young man in a suit who came out next were both much stronger than the boy from before.

The young swordsman who stepped out of the silver light last turned his head as if in response before his soul power could spread, his dark eyes staring straight into Yao Lao's eyes.

In an instant, a silvery-white sword light flashed in the young man's eyes.

The old man's soul trembled, and he actually felt a slight stinging pain under that gaze.

"What a sword!"

Surprised, the old doctor couldn't help but praise him.

The young man then realized the old man's identity and quickly concealed the sword light in his eyes, saying apologetically, "Elder Yao, you flatter me. I am new to this world and acted rashly."

"If there has been any offense, I hope Elder Yao will forgive me..."

The old doctor smiled wryly: "No, it was I who was presumptuous. I should ask my young friend not to take offense!"

Hearing their polite conversation, before Xiao Yan could say anything, a young man in white robes walked over, put his arm around Xiao Yan's shoulder from behind, and said with a grin:
"We're all on the same side, no need to be so polite!"

"Little Yanzi, why don't you hurry up and introduce him to Elder Yao?"

Without a doubt, this outgoing young man in white was Su Haoming.

Xiao Yan twitched his lips and reluctantly began to introduce the four group members to Yao Lao.

As for Yao Lao himself, there's no need for introduction. Judging from the way these four people addressed him as "Yao Lao," it's clear that their good disciple had already introduced him.

Upon learning the names and approximate strength of these four individuals, Elder Yao's expression turned strange, and he couldn't help but transmit his voice:

"Didn't you say that, apart from Brother Lin, the others who possessed fragments of divine artifacts weren't considered strong?"

"Yes!"

"You call this not strong?"

"Compared to Brother Lin, he is indeed not strong."

"..."

The old doctor was speechless. Although he did not know Lin Yu's true strength, judging from Lin Yu's previous performance, he was at least a strong person comparable to a Dou Sheng.

Is it too harsh to use him as the standard for strength or weakness?

Su Haoming and the others were naturally unaware of the telepathic communication between Yao Lao and Xiao Yan.

After Xiao Yan turned around, he asked excitedly, "Everyone's here, when are we going to retrieve the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame?"

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Brother Su, don't be in such a hurry. Before we officially begin our operation, there's one more thing we need to do..."

"whats the matter?"

"Go find Ice Emperor Hai Bodong and ask about the situation of the strange fire."

……

……

Before long, Xiao Yan led everyone to a shop in the city called 'Ancient Map'.

Looking at the deserted interior of the shop, Su Haoming sighed and muttered, "Xiao Yanzi, I thought you were all prepared, but it turns out you didn't even get the map!"

"Don't worry, it's here!"

Xiao Yan chuckled awkwardly, then stepped into the shop, cleared his throat, and called out loudly, "Is anyone here?"

The boy's clear voice echoed in the shop, but the white-haired old man behind the counter seemed not to hear it, still focused on making the map in his hands, without even raising his head.

Xiao Yan's face darkened, and he snorted coldly, "The mighty Ice Emperor, one of the legendary top ten experts of the Jia Ma Empire, is actually hiding in such a small shop making maps."

"Even if this news were spread, I'm afraid no one would believe it."
