The Protagonists' Chat Group: Beyond the Boundaries

Shi Jian's single sentence silenced Willow Deity. She seemed to have a thousand words to say, but in the end, she said nothing. Shi Jian was far more mysterious than it had imagined. However, its intuition told it that Shi Jian was a trustworthy person.

"You can enter the Virtual God Realm… I'll send you when you're ready!" Willow Deity spoke softly.

Shi Jian turned to look at everyone: "Get ready, we're setting off!"

Fang Han and the others were still a bit confused by Shi Jian and Willow Deity's conversation. However, they could also tell that Willow Deity had an extraordinary background, possessing the demeanor of a great expert.

Xiao Yan and Fang Han looked at Shi Jian with strange expressions: "Do you also have an injured expert guiding you?"

Willow Deity almost had "extraordinary background" written on her face, and from the charred willow tree stump, it could be seen that her condition didn't seem to be very good. This was clearly another 'old grandpa' on hand. The two of them felt a bit numb. Why were these 'old grandpas' everywhere? A group of six people, four of them had 'old grandpas' guiding them? Xiao Yan had Yao Lao, Fang Han had Yan, Lin Dong had Lord Diao… Now Shi Jian even had a Willow Deity! It's a small world.

Meng Qi and Yang Qi, on the other hand, felt isolated. The companions in the group all had great experts personally guiding them, while the two of them just had to 'go for it' with their eyes open and closed? This wasn't fair!!!

"Strictly speaking… Willow Deity was a 'grandpa' specially prepared for Shi Hao; I just hitched a ride…" Shi Jian explained. He also felt it was fate; three people in one group had 'grandpa' cheats. If he counted himself, that would be four. Although he was leeching off Shi Hao's 'grandpa' cheat… He didn't want to delve into this topic, so he urged everyone: "Alright, don't worry about these trivial details. Get ready, we're heading to the Virtual God Realm!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly sat cross-legged and waited. Willow Deity's verdant branches swelled and pierced through the sky, then manifested a portal. The few people sat cross-legged beneath the charred willow tree, and without feeling anything, their spirits left their Physical Bodies and stepped into the shimmering, divine light-filled portal.

"Is this the Virtual God Realm?" Countless mists permeated the Chaos, and Yang Qi and the others curiously surveyed their surroundings. A vast ruin was filled with all sorts of broken walls and dilapidated structures, and a desolate, ancient aura assailed them.

Shi Jian, who had been here once before, explained to everyone: "This is also the Virtual God Realm, but these places have been abandoned; there's no human presence here!"

"We'll go to the Initial Land first, and then from there, we'll head to the various blessed lands and grotto-heavens!"

Yan curiously surveyed his surroundings. "It seems a great battle took place here?" Because they were in spirit form, both he and Yao Lao had entered the Virtual God Realm. These two were considered seasoned Jianghu veterans, but they were shocked when they saw the scene in the Virtual God Realm. One Archaic Divine Mountain after another was broken apart, Chaos clouds lingered boundlessly, and ruins everywhere spoke of its past glory.

"This is a world created by Divine Realm, and it's also the battlefield of ancient Divine Realm!" Shi Jian explained to everyone.

"A world created by ancient Divine Realm?" Fang Han and the others' eyes flashed with curiosity upon hearing this. Those who could be called Divine Realm were absolutely extraordinary existences.

"Such a magical place… If you hadn't said this was a spiritual world, I would have thought I brought my Physical Body in too…" Fang Han sent out a stream of Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Qi towards the distance, shattering a distant building. "I can manipulate the magical power within my body…"

Xiao Yan also moved upon hearing this, and a green flame appeared in his hand. "I can even summon the Green Lotus Core Flame?" Xiao Yan was surprised!

The others also experimented one after another.

"Hahahaha… This old man can finally use my peak strength!" Yan transformed into a dozens-of-zhang-long Dragon and laughed wildly on the spot. After his spiritual will arrived in this Virtual God Realm, he was actually able to unleash his peak Cultivation.

Yao Lao's face was also excited: "This feeling… it's like having a Physical Body!"

"This Virtual God Realm is definitely not just a simple spiritual world!" Yao Lao and Yan originally existed as remnant souls. After entering the Virtual God Realm in their spiritual state, they actually gained the feeling of controlling a Physical Body. The others, however, couldn't feel at all that they were in a spiritual state. If Shi Jian hadn't given them a heads-up beforehand, they would have thought their Physical Bodies had arrived here.

Listening to everyone's words, Shi Jian only felt that this Virtual God Realm was even more mysterious. It seemed to perfectly simulate the Physical Body based on a person's spiritual consciousness. He didn't know how it was done. As expected of a place where even Immortal King existences had to hide.

Everyone had a blast playing in this Virtual God Realm for a while. Especially Yan and Yao Lao. The Virtual God Realm gave them the feeling of controlling a Physical Body, a feeling they hadn't had for a very, very long time. Yan, with his outgoing personality, didn't need to be told; he was already happily flying around in the sky and acting wild. Even Yao Lao, with his calm demeanor, had tears in his eyes. This feeling of having a Physical Body was wonderful. Although it was only a feeling now, Yao Lao believed that Xiao Yan would sooner or later recast his Physical Body!!!

"Teacher, I will definitely recast your Physical Body…" Xiao Yan noticed the change in Yao Lao's emotions, then stepped forward and solemnly promised Yao Lao.

"Teacher believes in you…" Yao Lao said with tears in his eyes.

The other few people were bewildered by the scene; how did it turn into a little emotional drama? Yan, who was acting wild in the sky, also stopped his antics and quickly transformed into a small Dragon, flying down: "Fang Han, I also want to recast my Physical Body, and it must be with Dragon bones!"

Fang Han was a bit bewildered upon hearing this. He had known Yan for so long, but he had never seen Yan in such a state. Yan had always given him the impression of an old demon. Why did his words now sound a bit like jealousy? He felt extremely strange in his heart, but Yan had indeed shown him great kindness. Recasting his Physical Body was something Fang Han had already promised.

"Alright, alright, when I have the ability, I will catch a Dragon King and use its Dragon bones to recast your Physical Body!" Fang Han promised.

Another heartwarming little drama. The other few people all turned their gazes to Shi Jian and Willow Deity. The meaning in their eyes was self-evident.

— It's your turn to show some warmth.

Shi Jian: …

Willow Deity: …

Shi Jian was too lazy to bother with this bunch of idiots and turned to walk towards the end of the ruins. The others smiled at his back and then followed. At the end of the ruins was a familiar golden passage. Shi Jian stepped onto it, and his figure disappeared from where he stood.

Seeing this, the others stepped into it one after another.

In the Initial Land, one figure after another appeared.

"Is this the Virtual God Realm?" Everyone curiously surveyed their surroundings.
