Chapter 210: Tutorial Videos

“Then what’s your daoist title?” Tianyi asked.

Daoyi gave a mischievous smile and cupped her hands together in greeting. “Thrallsong greets the Vast Heaven Grandmaster.”

Tianyi stayed silent at Daoyi’s playful greeting. Before the silence could turn awkward, Tianyi spoke again. “You know, I don’t have a daoist title either.”

Daoyi showed a stunned expression that quickly morphed into shock. “Eh?! No way! What about Vast Heaven Grandmaster? I heard many people call you that during the Demon Slaying Expedition.”

“That’s just what they started to call me after the Heavenly Connection Gathering. Actually, there was another title that they gave me, Junior Tribulation Lord, but I guess Vast Heaven just stuck more.” Tianyi said with a shrug.

“But didn’t you accept it? You didn’t reject or ignore it when other people addressed you as Vast Heaven. You aren’t going to tell me that you’re changing your daoist title after being stimulated by me, right?” Daoyi looked up and down at Tianyi speculatively.

“What? No!” Tianyi immediately rejected, but after seeing Daoyi’s suspicious look, he coughed into his fist. “Rather than not having a daoist title chosen by myself, it’s more like I never revealed it.”

“Why would you choose to hide it?” Daoyi asked, not understanding Tianyi’s logic. Oftentimes, the earlier you chose your daoist title, the better, as that would prevent misunderstandings and misidentifications.

On an unrelated note, grassroots cultivators frequently use daoist titles, while cultivators from cultivation families prefer to use their own names as daoist titles. This is because those scions of cultivation families are proud of their heritage.

“Because the name I’ve chosen is too domineering, and I currently don’t have the strength to back up that name.” Tianyi sighed. “I originally wanted to use it when I stepped into the Unity Realm or Singularity Realm for me, but I’m embarrassed to use it in my current state. Hell, even Vast Heaven can no longer apply to me!”

“So, what is the name you’ve chosen?” Daoyi asked, getting more curious by the minute. What kind of name did Tianyi choose but didn’t dare to use? With his strength, past and current, there was a very limited number of titles he would be unsuitable for.

“Nine Heavens,” Tianyi murmured as if embarrassed.

“What? What did you say?” Even with a cultivator’s enhanced hearing, Daoyi couldn’t quite catch what Tianyi said.

“I said, Nine Heavens!” Tianyi shouted. As if he had finally got something off his chest, he began to speak and complain. “I originally planned to use when I enter the Immortal Realm, but with how queer and powerful my cultivation is, I don’t know if I will be able to pass my Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation. So I wanted to use it in the Singularity Realm, but my current state is so sorry that I don’t have the face to use it!”

“And what the hell! In cultivation, when you ascend to a new realm, aren’t you supposed to gain new abilities and advance?. You’re not supposed to regress!” Tianyi then took a deep breath and said his following words a little bit more calmly. “Although the Singularity Realm is akin to the cocoon phase in metamorphosis, so I’m currently gathering power. I have the confidence to battle immortal monarchs immediately after entering the Immortal Realm.”

But then, as if his earlier calmness was a lie, Tianyi erupted again. “But what the hell!? Because of my current state, I can’t do anything else but cultivation. Do you know how torturous this is for me? Not only that, but I can’t slacken off in the little bit, or my cultivation will regress!”

When Tianyi was finally done with his rant, he was heaving as if out of breath even though he no longer needed to breathe. “Sorry, I kinda exploded out of nowhere with that.”

“It’s okay,” Daoyi comforted. It wasn’t like this was the first time Tianyi had done such a thing. The most memorable example of Tianyi’s emotion exploding was when he saw Xi Ri’s factory. Sometimes, I have to wonder if Tianyi experiences periods or not. I’m a woman, but my emotions don’t go through a roller coaster like he does.

After returning to Jade Peak Palace, Tianyi bid farewell to Daoyi. Although Daoyi had just solidified her cultivation, she still had to adapt to her new abilities as a nascent soul grandmaster. Not to mention that now was the best time to cultivate the newfound strength of her soul.

Daoyi shut herself in her room for over a year, adjusting and cultivating in her new state. On the other hand, Tianyi managed to persevere for six months straight before he couldn’t take it anymore.

“Damn,” Tianyi muttered to himself. Although he knew that he managed to advance his cultivation, but he didn’t know by how much. Unlike the traditional cultivation methods, Tianyi had no benchmarks to know when he entered the early, mid, late, or peak stages of his current realm. This also meant that he couldn’t estimate how long it would take him to cultivate. He only had a general feel for categorizing his advancements.

Feeling a bit frustrated, Tianyi decided to focus on another matter to take his mind off the oppressive situation. Let’s see, now that I can’t really use qi for the time being, a lot of my project has to be put on hold. Among the things I can do is focus on getting more people to use the Xiyi Network.

At this point, the sales of the Xiyi Talisman had reached their peak and even begun to show signs of decline. There were simply no new buyers for the Xiyi Talisman. Although the formation cards were another matter. Compared to the cost of a Xiyi Talisman, formation cards were cheaper, and most people didn’t need such a large variety that they would purchase a Xiyi Talisman.

I need to think of a way to attract them to use the Xiyinet. Even the users of the Xiyi Talisman don’t use the Xiyinet except for chatting. However, there is one group of users that uses it to share and coordinate with people to torment Lovespot. Tianyi paused in his thoughts.

He would have forgotten about Lovespot had it not been for that particular group of Xiyinet users. In his eyes, it was Immortal Redseal that he needed to pay attention to and not Lovespot. However, with the information from the Lovespot Tormenter Chat Group, he noticed that Lovespot had become more dangerous than before.

It was as if Lovespot had become a whole new person. Not only was he more diligent in his cultivation, he didn’t provoke others as much, but that only meant he didn’t have any new enemies. His old enemies still existed. Currently, Lovespot was already at the peak of the Core Formation Realm. Even if he had already reached the Nascent Soul Realm before his cultivation regressed, going back to the peak of the Core Formation Realm in such a short amount of time was amazing.

Still, Tianyi had to wonder how Lovespot had got enough resources. According to the chat group, he apparently made a fortune after adventuring on the outside. If Tianyi didn’t know any better, he would have thought the soul in Lovespot’s body changed, but how could that be possible without arousing any suspicion in the Buzhou Immortal Sect?

Unless he’s a transmigrator? Tianyi suddenly had such a thought.

The protagonist suddenly wakes up to discover that he was suddenly another person. Not only that, but he was in a very precarious situation. It seemed as if the whole world was against and the reason for this was because a certain young master schemed against him and his grandfather, forcing his grandfather to be locked up. Not only that, the reason the original owner died in the heavenly tribulation must be the result of that young master’s plot!

After realizing his situation, the protagonist swiftly chooses to persevere and quietly cultivate, but certain people don’t like the look of him and constantly come looking for trouble. Under no choice, the protagonist slowly shows his brilliance and sheds the previous muddy reputation of the body’s original owner. Over the course of time, he adventures outside and gains an inheritance from the primordial era, one that surpasses even the number one sect of the Huang Realm!

Eventually, the protagonist manages to unfurl the young master’s conspiracy and deliver justice. With the truth revealed, his grandfather is released, and all seems well.

But wait!

At this moment, the punished young master’s mother comes and tries to get revenge. Maybe there would be a war in the Heaven Continent to direct Mengfei’s attention away from the protagonist, who was too weak at the time. Eventually, the protagonist would gain sufficient strength and overthrow Mengfei’s tyranny.

After that, the protagonist might unite all three continents of the Huang Realm under the Buzhou Immortal Sect before going to a higher realm.

The end.

Tianyi snorted as he thought up a plot for the current Lovespot. That’s impossible, right? Hmm, the possibility of transmigrating into Lovespot’s body isn’t impossible. I myself am a case, although my situation is slightly different.

If the current Lovespot really is someone from Earth, I have to find a way to test it out. Although if he isn’t, should I think of some method to get rid of him? With that nasty personality of his, he really might do something. Tianyi narrowed his eyes as he continued to think. He chuckled. Man, I feel like I haven’t overthought like this for a long time.

But getting back to my main point, how can I attract cultivators to use the Xiyinet? Most cultivators only care about cultivating to immortality. Wait! Tianyi’s eyes shone with inspiration. If cultivators only care about cultivation, why not release exclusive information about cultivation through the Xiyinet. Instead of words, I can use videos instead of writing a post!

It was as if endless possibilities had revealed themselves to Tianyi. Not only that, but if they want to get more information, they’ll have to use the Xiyinet more. Maybe I can lock it behind a type of net currency?

For example, the first few videos are free, but if they want to access more content, they would need to pay a certain amount of uh, I’ll just call them Xiyicoins for now. Anyways, they would need to pay a certain amount of Xiyicoins to access more content, and the only way to get Xiyicoins would be for your post to get liked by other users. To limit the currency, a user can only give five or so likes a day!

The more Tianyi thought, the more his eyes shone.

Later, I can introduce a special paid currency called Premium Xiyicoins, which you need to buy using spirit stones. Certain posts can only be accessed by paying Premium Xiyicoins, and users will be paid a certain amount if their post requires Premium Xiyicoins! Not just that, maybe special subscription services too, like a video site.

Tianyi began to get more and more excited until he finally couldn’t stand it anymore and called Su Bojing and Ba Shifang over. They were going to record some tutorial videos!

“Huh? What’s this?” Ru Ye said after he finished chatting with the rest of the Lovespot Tormentor Chat Group. Although the group’s name remained unchanged, the purpose of the group had long evolved past its original purpose. Though, they still execute operations that were very faithful to its name.

Ru Ye was one of the first users of the Xiyi Talisman, owing to Tianyi distributing it when he schemed against Lovespot and Redseal. He was thankful to Tianyi because, thanks to the Xiyi Talisman, he was able to meet up with like-minded people and get revenge. After his heart became peaceful, he successfully entered the Nascent Soul Realm.

It was a liberating feeling, finally being able to advance again after being stuck in the same realm for over fifty years.

However, he, along with others, only used it to chat and never used any of the other functions even when it was updated. Ru Ye knew that you could use the Xiyi Talisman to record videos and post in forums, but he never saw the point.

Tapping the notification that had appeared on the Xiyi Talisman, it directly led him to a forum post. Ru Ye still didn’t understand why there needed to be a forum. If you needed to make an announcement, why can’t you just post a physical notice at the Works Hall or any other bulletin in the Buzhuo Immortal Sect?

“Tianyi’s How-To Cultivate: Qi Gathering Realm Part 1?” Ru Ye muttered. He tapped the play button, and a holographic screen materialized above the Xiyi Talisman much like how people would watch when they used scrying techniques.

In the video, Tianyi was sitting on his Immortal Lotus Throne in the Jade Clear Spring, where he cultivated in his earlier years, with his eyes closed. Five seconds later, he opened his eyes, and the whole atmosphere changed, becoming more solemn. Ru Ye unconsciously straightened his back in response.

“The first step of cultivating is to sense the spiritual qi of heaven and earth. It is a personal recognition, so I won’t go into details concerning that process, but I will talk about how to open the twelve standard meridians.” The Tianyi in the video began.

At first, Ru Ye was just slightly interested. He respected Tianyi, but sometimes he couldn’t understand him at all, as if the two lived in different worlds. However, as the video continued, Ru Ye discovered that his knowledge of the Qi Gathering Realm was sorely lacking, even as a nascent soul grandmaster.

The video didn’t go in-depth on the various cultivation methods and instead explained the Qi Gathering Realm in general terms. This information was valuable to all practitioners, regardless of their cultivation method. As Tianyi explained, Ru Ye began to wish that he had seen this video when he was still in the Qi Gathering Realm.

Even his teacher, an Immortal Realm elder, was inferior to Tianyi in his understanding of the Qi Gathering Realm. Unblinkingly, Ru Ye watched all the Qi Gathering Realm tutorials, which took seven days.

After the video ended, Ru Ye felt satisfied. The video wasn’t useful to him at all, but that didn’t mean the other videos weren’t. He had seen that the video had Qi Gathering Realm in the title, which meant that there would be one for the Foundation Gathering Realm, Core Formation Realm, and maybe even the Nascent Soul Realm.

The videos concerning the Core Formation Realm and below weren’t useful to Ru Ye, but the ones concerning the Nascent Soul Realm definitely would, judging by the knowledge displayed in the video he just watched. Isn’t there a rumor that the Vast Heaven Young Master has stepped into the Unity Realm?

Clicking the video link, he was led to a video-sharing website. It took some time to familiarize himself with it, but Ru Ye soon got used to the user interface. Clicking on Tianyi’s channel as it was called, Ru Ye’s eyes lit up as he saw a string of videos that had been uploaded.

Not just spiritual cultivation tutorials, but Tianyi also uploaded martial cultivation tutorials. Unlike the Qi Gathering Realm video, the Body Transformation tutorials were split into six different videos denoting the six stages. I’ve always wanted to cultivate the martial way but didn’t have the spare time since I spent it worrying over my spiritual cultivation. Maybe, now’s a good time, but before that…

Ru Ye searched for the Nascent Soul Realm tutorials but was disappointed to find that there were none. “Maybe the Vast Heaven Young Master hasn’t uploaded yet?”

Feeling that this was the case, Ru Ye ‘subscribed’ to Tianyi’s channel. Ru Ye discovered that there was a number next to the subscribe button, and when he clicked it, it went up by one. “That means there are six hundred and fifty-seven people like me?”

Putting the thought out of his mind, Ru Ye started to watch the Body Transformation Realm tutorials. It was fine at first, but when he reached the Organ Fortification Stage tutorial, he discovered that he couldn’t watch it. He soon discovered why.

“I need ten Xiyicoins to unlock this video?”
