Chapter 21: Uploading the Original True Explanation to the Chat Group

None of the group members expected Shi Jian to be so efficient, delivering such a massive surprise in less than two days.

The "Original True Interpretation," the source of all laws, the vessel of the Great Dao... a cultivation manual daring to claim such a title must be unimaginably formidable. With everyone waiting in eager anticipation, Shi Jian uploaded the manual.

[Group member Shi Jian has uploaded the Original True Interpretation.]

A stream of information flashed by, and everyone immediately opened the group file.

...

"The Original True Interpretation, the source of all laws!"

Fang Han felt a jolt of shock as this new manual appeared in his mind. Shi Jian’s own comprehension of the text was still shallow, and after downloading it, the members only gained a superficial understanding. Even so, the Original True Interpretation left them deeply shaken.

Fang Han grasped the profound nature of the manual after just a brief glance. The Original True Interpretation detailed the essence of the Great Dao; in a sense, it was more of a conceptual framework. In the Perfect World, it spoke of bone scripts and runes, but in Fang Han’s hands, it transformed into a divine art that articulated the very essence of mana. A few glimpses were enough to give Fang Han a higher-level perspective on his own path of cultivation.

"This manual truly lives up to its reputation as the source of all laws!" Fang Han could not help but sigh in his heart. This was, without a doubt, an earth-shattering, heaven-defying technique. He hesitated no longer, sitting cross-legged to meditate on the Original True Interpretation and refine his own mana.

"How is it possible for your mana to be refined even further?" Yan’s voice, filled with shock, rang in Fang Han’s ears. Yan was stunned to see Fang Han purifying his own internal energy.

One had to remember that Fang Han had broken through to the Supernatural Realm under his guidance. When Fang Han achieved the breakthrough, he had not only been aided by the Nine-Orifice Golden Pellet but had also cultivated the Yama Golden Body and utilized the starlight from the Sun-Moon Five-Star Bracelet to temper his physical form. With the stacking of multiple buffs—the Nine-Orifice Golden Pellet, infinite Blood Pellets, Yellow Springs Holy Water, Biluo Pellet, and the Sun-Moon Five-Star Bracelet—his foundation was as solid as it could possibly be. While other cultivators in the Supernatural Realm could only capture a few Profound Yellow Fierce Horses, Fang Han had been able to capture nearly a hundred upon his breakthrough. It could be said he had laid the strongest foundation possible.

Yan thought that was already exaggerated enough, but who would have imagined that after a few days of staring blankly, Fang Han would suddenly gain some kind of insight, allowing him to further condense his mana?

It was simply inconceivable.

Hearing Yan’s exclamation, a smile tugged at the corner of Fang Han's mouth. "I just obtained a peerless, ancient manual, and this is the result of practicing it!"

"A peerless manual? Where did you get it?" Yan was baffled. He had been by Fang Han’s side the whole time and hadn't seen him acquire any such thing.

After a moment of consideration, Fang Han decided to reveal some things to Yan. "There is more than one world like ours; I obtained this manual from another world entirely!"

Yan responded with confusion: "I naturally know there is more than one world. Once one reaches the Longevity Realm, one can ascend to the Upper Realm. Is this an Upper Realm technique? But how did you obtain it?"

"Not the Upper Realm... it's a different world altogether," Fang Han corrected.

"Ah!" Yan was bewildered. All this time, he had played the role of a guide to Fang Han, maintaining an air of inscrutable wisdom, while Fang Han had been a bumpkin from a small place—though, fortunately, one who progressed quickly. Now, however, Yan felt that Fang Han had changed. He seemed to have suddenly grasped something profound, his level of thinking surpassing his own. Now, he was the one who felt like the bumpkin. What exactly was this "other world"?

"When the opportunity arises, I will take you to see other worlds, and then you will understand," Fang Han promised.

Upon hearing this, Yan was even more confused. *Wait, buddy, what kind of strength do you think you have? You're going to take me to other worlds? You’ve only just reached the Supernatural Realm; you haven't become an immortal, let alone achieved eternal life! How many peanuts have you had to get this drunk?*

Fang Han didn't need to guess to know what Yan was thinking. However, Yan couldn't see the chat group, and no amount of explanation would be as convincing as actually taking him on a world-hopping journey. So, he simply stopped explaining. Once he took Yan on a trip through the worlds, he would settle down.

"Yan, pass the Great Five Elements Art to me in its entirety!" Fang Han said softly.

...

In the world of *The Ultimate Evolution* (Yi Shi Zhi Zun), Meng Qi felt a surge of excitement. Originally, he had been a nobody, stuck as a monk—as miserable as one could be. Then, he was suddenly pulled into the chat group. Since joining, he finally had something to look forward to, even managing to afford three dishes and a soup for his meals.

Having just digested the red packets the others had sent, Shi Jian now presented him with another massive surprise. The source of all laws, the vessel of the Great Dao... listening to these descriptors, Meng Qi couldn't even imagine how powerful this technique was.

Carrying his excitement, Meng Qi immediately downloaded the Original True Interpretation in the chat group. Countless runes instantly appeared in his mind.

"Let me see what this is about..." Meng Qi focused his attention on contemplating the manual in his mind. He had only read two or three characters when he felt his head swim and a sharp pain spike in his brain!

At that moment, a message flashed in the group:

[Shi Jian: "By the way, brothers, the requirements for practicing the Original True Interpretation in my world are quite high. You need at least 100,000 jin of force and a will as tough as iron!"]

[Shi Jian: "I don't know if this restriction still applies when downloading from the chat group, but to be safe, Meng Qi, you should hold off on practicing it for now, or you might suffer a backlash!"]

Meng Qi looked at the message in the group and then touched his nose. His hand came away covered in blood.

"You couldn't have said that sooner..."

With that final thought, Meng Qi collapsed and fell fast asleep.

Shi Jian, having waited a long time for a response from Meng Qi, scratched his head in confusion. *Meng Qi doesn't seem like the type to read messages without replying, right? Could it be that he already downloaded it, started practicing, and suffered a backlash?*

*Youth is a wonderful thing; just falling asleep at the drop of a hat!* Guessing Meng Qi's situation, Shi Jian sighed in his heart. He wasn't too worried, though. The backlash from the Original True Interpretation wasn't severe; even though the old village chief couldn't practice it, he often looked at it. At most, one would faint for a while; it was no big deal.
