44: Han Li was extremely cautious!

Meanwhile, in another completely different world.

Inside an Immortal Cave on a desolate island in the Scattered Star Seas.

A dark-skinned, average-looking young man was cautiously circulating his mana, refining a drop of golden liquid that radiated a majestic aura of life.

It was precisely Han Li.

He had claimed the [essence of the source of the undying medicine] sent by The Only Honored One - Ruthless Great Emperor, but with his cautious nature, he naturally wouldn't consume it rashly. He first separated a tiny wisp of it and tested it repeatedly using various methods. Only after confirming it was non-toxic and harmless, and even had an unimaginable nourishing effect on both his Divine Soul and Physical Body, did he dare to begin refining it.

"What amazing medicinal power..."

Han Li felt the mana surging within his body and the warm power continuously cleansing his Physical Body and nourishing his Primordial Spirit, his heart filled with immense shock.

Just a single drop of essence had an effect far exceeding all the Spirit Pills and medicines he had obtained before.

"This Chat Group... is truly a heaven-sent Opportunity."

Han Li sighed emotionally in his heart. However, he did not let the joy go to his head. He knew very well that Opportunity often came with risks.

The members in the group were either some kind of Battle Emperor or Great Emperor, and then there was that First Emperor who called himself the "Ancestral Dragon." Every one of them sounded like a peerless powerhouse capable of turning clouds into rain with a flip of their hand.

Especially that Group Master, Wushi Great Emperor.

The novels he uploaded were simply inconceivable. Han Li had also gone to read his own "A Mortal's Journey to Immortality." When he saw that he would get to know Nangong Wan in the future, meet Divine Lord Dayan, and perform Ascension to the Spirit Realm and Immortal Realm... his heart, which was usually as calm as an ancient well, was also stirred into massive waves.

This meant that all his future trump cards and Opportunities were essentially laid bare before the Group Master.

"I must be even more cautious," Han Li warned himself in his heart.

The Scattered Star Seas was already fraught with danger, and now with the addition of an unfathomable Chat Group, he felt that he had to walk every step as if on thin ice.

Just then, the group became lively again.

[Little Martial Uncle of Longhu Mountain]: "Seniors, we chat in the group every day but never meet. How about... we find an Opportunity to have an offline gathering? I'll treat everyone to BBQ! And we can take the chance to admire Group Master's supreme immortal countenance!"

As soon as Zhang Chulan said this, it immediately received responses from many people.

[Ye Fan]: "This is a great suggestion! I also want to meet all the Seniors! Especially the Group Master!"

[Xiao Yan]: "A gathering? Sounds good. It's a perfect chance to exchange Cultivation insights."

[Ancestral Dragon]: "A gathering? If I can meet the Group Master, I am willing to receive everyone with the full strength of my empire!"

Even Qin Shi Huang showed great interest in this.

For a moment, everyone was excited, discussing where to meet and how to achieve cross-world teleportation.

Han Li watched these discussions, his brow furrowing slightly.

A gathering?

What a joke.

Exposing his true self to a group of powerful experts whose backgrounds were unknown? To him, that was no different from seeking death. If some big shot took a liking to his little green bottle, he wouldn't even have a place to go cry.

He silently lurked, making up his mind that even if there really were a gathering, he would absolutely not go.

While everyone was discussing heatedly, that supreme being who had remained silent finally spoke.

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "The matter of the gathering shall be put aside for now."

A simple sentence, yet it carried an unquestionable majesty, instantly silencing the noisy Chat Group.

[Little Martial Uncle of Longhu Mountain]: "Ah? Why, Group Master? Is it... because we were too noisy?" Zhang Chulan asked somewhat uneasily.

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "It is not your fault."

Wushi Great Emperor's voice echoed calmly in everyone's minds as he began to explain.

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "First, the Laws of the worlds you inhabit are all different. The Laws of a world are like the environment that nurtures its people. Forcing a cross-world transit will, at best, result in your cultivation being suppressed as you fail to acclimate; at worst, you will be rejected by the world's Origin, or even trigger the Heavenly Dao to obliterate you."

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "Although I can protect you, the conflict of Laws will still cause irreversible damage to your Dao Foundation. Especially for you all, whose cultivation is still shallow and Foundation unstable, rashly crossing worlds is no different from destroying your own future."

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "Second, most of you carry Great Luck and are the central nodes in the long river of fate of your respective worlds. Every choice you make triggers a chain reaction in your world. If multiple people leave their worlds at the same time and gather in one place, the resulting entanglement of Luck and space-time paradoxes would be enough to plunge your respective worlds into massive turmoil."

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "Third, and most importantly—you are all too weak."

The words "too weak" were like three massive mountains, pressing heavily onto the hearts of every group member.

Even favored children of heaven like Xiao Yan and Luo Feng felt a deep sense of powerlessness at this moment.

It was true; they might be top-tier existences in their own worlds, but looking across the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms, in the eyes of an existence like Wushi Great Emperor, they were indeed... too weak.

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "The Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms are far more vast and dangerous than you can imagine. Outside of my Universe, there are still countless powerful existences coveting other worlds. With your current strength, you can barely protect yourselves, let alone talk about a gathering?"

[Group Master Wushi Great Emperor]: "Cultivate with peace of mind and work hard to earn points. In the future, when you all have the ability to traverse the Void Realm and roam the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms, I will personally set a banquet for you in the Heavenly Court."

This speech first clarified the dangers and then painted a beautiful picture for the future.

The group members, who were originally a bit disappointed, were instantly revitalized as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

[Xiao Yan]: "I have learned much! The Group Master is right, we are indeed too weak! From today on, I, Xiao Yan, will Cultivate for twenty hours a day!"

[Luo Feng]: "Thank you for pointing the way, Group Master! My goal is the sea of stars!"

[Ancestral Dragon]: "The Heavenly Court Banquet... I have noted it down. If there is a chance, I hope to meet everyone!"

Even Han Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Wushi Great Emperor's explanation, and his reverence for this Group Master deepened by several degrees.

This Great Emperor not only possessed heaven-defying strength, but his vision and broad-mindedness were far beyond their imagination.

Vetoing the gathering was not out of being cold or aloof, but a form of genuine... protection.

[Han Li]: "(Silently refining all the essence of the source of the undying medicine, his cultivation improving by another step)"

The first gathering proposal of the Chat Group was thus vetoed by Wushi Great Emperor.

But a seed had been planted in everyone's hearts.

And that was to become stronger!

To constantly become stronger!

Until one day, they would be qualified to truly stand before that White-Robed Great Emperor and attend that... Heavenly Court Banquet belonging to the powerhouses of the Myriad Heavens and Myriad Realms!
