System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Chen Xuan knew that in the future, even more outrageous and bizarre events would inevitably surface on the internet.

"We can't take too big a step; we need a gradual process."

Chen Xuan nodded, "As expected of the official Longxia government, this is just right."

As the 8 o'clock mark arrived, Chen Xuan's Douyin homepage, after a series of operations, successfully launched the live stream.

Chen Xuan was still sitting on the Flying Immortal Stone outside the Flying Immortal Temple, with the Dao Ancestor's Hall still in the background, just like when he first started the live broadcast.

The difference was that not far from Chen Xuan, three young men and women were practicing together.

Within just one second of Chen Xuan starting his broadcast, hundreds of thousands of people flooded into the live stream room.

So many people came in at once that Chen Xuan's phone screen froze for a moment.

Wang Dachui: [Holy crap, Taoist priest, this is huge news! Bureau 749 has confirmed that the one who flew through the void and commanded lightning in Longyin County yesterday, alerting the world to evacuate the danger zone, was none other than the master Longxia!]

Three Lives Cultivating Immortality; [I knew it! Waaah, when I was little I said I'd seen immortals undergoing tribulations, and afterwards my friends wouldn't let me play with them anymore. They said their parents wouldn't let them play with idiots. Now, the Dragon Xia government has proven me right! Apologize! To all those who called me an idiot back then, apologize to me!!]

Neighbor's Grandpa; [Okay, I used to be a complete materialist, never believing in ghosts or gods, but after the people of Longyin County released the pictures of that lightning-wielding figure that woke the world last night, I'm stunned, I'm wavering, this old man wants to cultivate immortality!]

My grandma has a long fan and is like Zhao Zilong; [Damn, the day before yesterday I saw plasma pulse cannons and catapults appearing in one scene and I thought it was ridiculous. The next day I saw flying gods and fifth-generation fighter jets appearing in the sky above a bustling city. Mom, what's wrong with this world?]

The Golden Core stage isn't about kidney stones; [It can't be like in the novels, where Earth is about to experience a spiritual revival, right?]

[Wait a minute, guys, weren't the fans of the Taoist priest who did fortune-telling on his live stream yesterday from Longyin County? And that person bathed in lightning, do you think he might be the Taoist priest?]

[Dude upstairs, are you drunk? The Taoist priest himself was right there in the livestream last night during the call-up, he didn't move an inch! How do you explain that?]

"That's right. Although the Taoist priest might know some esoteric arts, even something like astral projection, you must understand that ghosts and spirits are most afraid of lightning. A soul controlling thousands of bolts of lightning? I don't understand."

Yes, yes, yes, this completely violates the laws of physics!

[If it's not a Taoist priest, then it must be a true master from Longxia. Could it be the Celestial Master?]

The Sichuan-Chongqing Bad Guys: [Ahem, sorry to have startled everyone. Since you all guessed it, I'll stop pretending and come clean. It was my ancestor who saw I was in trouble and specially appeared to save my life!]

[Haha, I'm not pretending anymore, the one who commands thunder is my husband!]

……

As expected, the fans who had just entered the live stream were discussing yesterday's earthquake incident.

Last night, Chen Xuanyin revealed his thunder magic to save the world. He was thousands of meters in the air and surrounded by thousands of lightning bolts. It is possible that no one could see him clearly under such complex and harsh weather conditions.

As time went on, Chen Xuan's live stream audience had surpassed 140.

More fans joined the discussion.

Gradually, new netizens started to egg them on, mocking the group of long-time fans in the live stream.

[You guys are all talk and no action? That's a big shot from Bureau 749. You streamers are trying to ride on the coattails of that official big shot's popularity?]

[Exactly, since the official announcement, at least a hundred streamers on Douyin have claimed to be that master of controlling lightning!]

[Outrageous! I thought it was one thing for small streamers to try and gain attention, but I never expected a streamer with over 100 million followers to be like this?]

[That's right, it's fair to say that streamers these days are shameless. Master Beiming, huh? If you're so great, why don't you try conjuring some lightning yourself?]

[Haha, bro, you've gone too far! Creating lightning with your bare hands is practically asking someone to die! You're just trying to ride the wave of attention and fleece your followers; making money isn't shameful at all!]

After all, they're not in the same league. These new netizens number two to three hundred thousand, and they're very indignant that a group of veteran fans are looking down on them, pointing fingers and preventing them from questioning the young streamer.

Everyone's just playing on their phones and gossiping, who's supposed to give way to you?

Longtime fan, what's wrong?

I'm going to fight back, let's see what you can do to us.

Goodness, with over 200,000 new viewers simultaneously copying and sending comments, several comments kept scrolling in the comment section.

[Haha, it's the 22nd century, and we can't even speak properly anymore? Haha!]

[It's shameful to try and gain attention online, it's shameful to silence people, and it's even more shameful to have everyone livestreaming – you're creating a chaotic mess online!]

[Exactly! It's one thing to ride the coattails of others' popularity, but a bunch of brainless fans won't even let us question them? Why don't you try creating some lightning with your bare hands, you little rascal?!]

[Yes, if you can conjure lightning with your bare hands, each of our 200,000 people will give you a carnival-sized reward. Kid, are you scared yet?!]
