Chapter 74: A Brand New Ability, the Chat Group Owner's Resurgence

"Hmm, but calling this thing a Farm is just too lacking in style, especially when its functions are so powerful and its capabilities so fierce."

"I have to change the name!"

Zhang Xuan rubbed his chin; constantly calling it a Farm was quite embarrassing, and he felt awkward bragging about it in the Chat Group.

"Then what should it be called? Back Garden?"

"No good. Flat Peach Garden? That won't work either, since it doesn't just grow Flat Peaches."

"How about calling it Immortal Garden?"

Zhang Xuan shook his head; naming it directly with 'Immortal' didn't quite fit the status of the Chat Group Owner. After all, the Group Owner's status and position were so high that associating with Immortals and Gods would actually lower his level.

"It's better to just simply call it a Plantation."

Zhang Xuan felt this was acceptable; the name was simple and ancient, revealing a rustic quality.

But in reality, its corresponding abilities were earth-shattering; all kinds of top-tier spiritual items, and even Undying Divine Medicine, could be ripened ahead of time within it and grow normally; it absolutely counted as a top-tier treasure.

A simple name having such powerful abilities would instead create a sense of contrast, making it feel even more formidable.

"Hmm, that's settled!"

As his thoughts turned, an Ancient Stele grew out of the ground in the Farm, with three ancient seal-script characters inscribed upon it—Plantation.

After getting things settled, Zhang Xuan logged back into the Chat Group, preparing to start operating a bit.

During these days when Zhang Xuan was not online, other Chat Group Members had also been chatting.

Meng Qi was complaining in the Chat Group about meeting his future wife, Gu Xiaosang; regarding his future wife, his mood was both complex and uncomfortable, and he did not know how to interact with her.

After all, if he did not change things, in the future this wife of his would die by his hands, using this situation to shake off the control of the Lunhui Zhi Zhu and escape the control of the Golden Emperor.

Currently, Meng Qi's mind was in a mess.

However, no one lamented Meng Qi's other experiences, as he had not made that ancient book, The One-Life Sovereign, public to all Group Members, and the others did not know about his complex grievances and entanglements.

On the other side, another Group Member, Chen Nan, had also fallen into deep entanglement.

He had stood up for Nalan Ruoshui in the Chu Kingdom Imperial Capital and beaten her fiancé to a pulp; during the exchange tournament between the Chu Kingdom and another nation, he displayed Tier 3 strength, slaughtering in all directions and remaining invincible.

Currently, Chen Nan had become an honored guest of the Chu Kingdom, living the high life in the Qishi Mansion.

However, Chen Nan was also very uncomfortable; he wanted to find his beloved Yuxin, but Yuxin was nowhere to be found, while Nalan Ruoshui, the Imperial Physician of the Chu Kingdom, was right before his eyes, warm and fragrant, a beauty in his arms.

After Chen Nan displayed his extraordinary strength and his closeness to Nalan Ruoshui, the Emperor of the Chu Kingdom decisively canceled the relevant engagement, and Nalan Ruoshui often came to the Qishi Mansion to visit Chen Nan.

Moreover, it wasn't just Nalan Ruoshui; the Chu Kingdom's little devil princess also often came to find Chen Nan to play, and even the Chu Kingdom's eldest princess—the one who might become the empress and the ruler of the Chu Kingdom in the future—often sought out Chen Nan to confide in him.

Chen Nan's complaints in the group unsurprisingly received unanimous negative reviews from the Group Members.

No one gave him serious advice; they were all roasting him for being a detestable scumbag, while simultaneously wishing they could take his place.

A gentle little doctor, a wild little princess, a cold iceberg beauty... that was the dream-like life that countless people pursued.

Chen Nan still had the nerve to complain in the group, saying things like the eldest princess only wanted to use him and make him a sycophant, the little princess had no feelings for him and just wanted to play, and Nalan Ruoshui had some feelings for him, but his heart belonged to Yuxin and he didn't want to delay a woman.

"Damn it, this scumbag!"

Seeing this, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but curse in a low voice, feeling both envious and jealous.

He wasn't envious of Meng Qi at all; after all, Meng Qi's future wife was terrifying and could calculate people to death.

But Chen Nan, truth be told, he was truly a bit envious; the living environment was good, he had big shots backing him, and he was surrounded by top-tier beauties.

It was simply boundless joy, alright.

Li Xiaoyao had unsurprisingly gotten married on Xianling Island; well, Zhang Sanfeng and Granny served as witnesses.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Xuan also discovered that some cultivation methods for alchemy had been added to the Group File, as well as a spirit pill exclusively made by Granny on Xianling Island that could bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh and bones.

Of course, this pill only had that effect on ordinary people; for cultivators, the efficacy was much worse.

"Damn, everyone's luck with women is so good; is this saying I'm a lonely widower?"

Zhang Xuan cursed in a low voice; the corresponding situation in the Chat Group made him feel a bit uneasy.

After a rough understanding, he saw that the Chat Group had been operating normally during his absence, improving steadily and orderly.

The overall lives of the Group Members had seen a stable and firm improvement.

Zhang Sanfeng still had not chosen to return to the Yitian World, even though his current points had accumulated to nearly two thousand.

Under the witness of many Chat Group Members, he decided to travel the world together with Li Xiaoyao to collect the top-tier treasures Li Xiaoyao might encounter in the future, while simultaneously improving his own strength.

With Meng Qi as a witness, Li Xiaoyao also confessed a large part of the situation regarding Legend of Sword and Fairy to Zhang Sanfeng.

Zhang Sanfeng could see the vast majority of the experiences within Legend of Sword and Fairy, but the experiences related to Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er were censored and sealed.

"It seems there are still too few Group Members, too few things happening, and the overall harvest is not enough!"

Zhang Xuan rubbed his chin; now that his strength and realm had further improved, his ability to search for relevant Group Members had also greatly increased.

And since there was an active search every week to increase the ability to add new members, he felt it was very necessary to use it now.

"But there's no need to use it for now."

After understanding the progress of the relevant Group Members, Zhang Xuan switched back to his main account once again.

Silently, the Chat Group emitted an invisible ripple, and all Group Members received the corresponding information; in this instant, they simultaneously knew that the Group Owner in the Chat Group had appeared.

The last time the Group Owner appeared, many Group Members received great help and gained significant benefits, so this round of Group Members coming online was triggered, and they all logged on at once.

In Beidou, beneath the Eastern Wasteland, Qingdi had just comprehended another section of the corresponding Eight/Nine Mysterious Technique, and his understanding of the Eight/Nine Mysterious Technique was even deeper.

Just as he was preparing to continue his seclusion, he felt that invisible ripple; after pausing for a moment, he still projected his Divine Sense into the Chat Group within his mind.

On the other side, walking side-by-side with Zhang Sanfeng, Li Xiaoyao, who had just arrived at Lin Family Fort and was preparing to go to the arena to defeat that proud-faced woman, felt his mind shake; he and Zhang Sanfeng beside him looked at each other and stopped at the same time.

In the Chu Kingdom Imperial Capital, Chen Nan had just returned from the Imperial Library; on the way, he met the cold-faced eldest princess of the Chu Kingdom, and after a cold greeting, he saw the little devil princess behind the eldest princess making faces at him.

After returning to the Qishi Mansion, Chen Nan took out an ancient medical book he had specially translated and gave it to the pleasantly surprised Nalan Ruoshui; just as he was about to speak, his Divine Sense shook in his mind, and he immediately put on a serious expression.

In the boundless desert, Meng Qi was covered in wind and frost, treading heavily through the sand with his master Xuan Bei and junior brother Zhenhui, when his mind shook.

——

: 【It seems you all have been doing quite well during this time!】

The Group Owner's statement was simple yet powerful; there was no exaggerated tone, but everyone was stirred by it.

I Want to Create the Immortal Realm: 【Fortunately, my strength and realm are still treading water, but I have had some gains.】

Not Wanting to Be a Monk Meng Qi: 【I am doing quite well; I think it won't be long before I can truly return to secular life and no longer be a monk!】

I Want to Be The Hero: 【I am already walking the jianghu, and before long, I think I will truly become The Hero, famous throughout the world!】

Zhang Sanfeng: 【Thanks to the help of the Group Owner, I am now able to break free from the cage and see freedom.】

Zhang Xuan: 【I was lucky enough to obtain some Buddhist artifacts in Kunlun, gained a small opportunity, and made a small breakthrough.】

Among the group, Zhang Sanfeng felt the deepest gratitude toward the Group Owner, even though he was the person who gained the least due to receiving spoilers.

But he broke through his corresponding realm, reached the level of returning to his youth, and was able to see a broader world; although the help the Chat Group gave him seemed the least, he felt he had gained a great deal.

——

: 【You are all making steady progress, and I am very pleased. I have awakened from my slumber; recently, more and more has been recovering, and more related abilities have been unlocked.】

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Chat Group felt a jolt in their hearts.

Although they had guessed before that the Group Owner might have had their strength affected by some terrible incident and was not in their prime state.

But today, it was the first time the Chat Group Owner had personally admitted to this event.

Before more related conjectures could emerge in their minds, the alt account of the Chat Group Owner controlled by Zhang Xuan spoke again.

——

: 【Under your joint construction, the Chat Group has grown significantly. Related abilities have been newly unlocked, and my former Plantation has initially recovered. Related spiritual herbs and spiritual materials can be planted within it, and later, these related spiritual herbs and spiritual materials can be exchanged for corresponding points within the Chat Group.】

【At the same time, I have added a task panel to the Chat Group. Characters from different worlds can publicly issue related tasks on the task panel.】

【My tenet has always been for Group Members to help each other, be equal and friendly, and jointly create a beautiful tomorrow.】

【Now, you may discuss freely!】

The Group Owner's avatar flickered once, then returned to silence.

At the same time, new rules appeared in the Chat Group, manifesting in the minds of every relevant Group Member.

These were the options for exchanging spiritual herbs for points, as well as more related terms regarding task issuance.
