"You're all bullying ! I'm going to tell the village head!"
"In the na of the moon, I shall punish you!"
"I'm going to be the Pirate King!"
"George, let's put on our clothes and pretend to be Mom and Dad..."
"Darn you, Pleasant Goat! I'll be back!"
"Guess how many candies I have. Guess right, and they're all yours."
...
Sotis a boy's voice, sotis a girl's, a constant stream of provocations.
No one was actually conversing with Lin Bai; he was essentially saying whatever popped into his head.
The childish voices, like those from a children's television show, sounded innocent and playful. But echoing through the forest, with disconnected phrases and no visible source, they created an eerie, ghost-in-the-valley sensation.
This was especially true with a swarm of crazed won in the sky, their eyes bloodshot as they scread for blood...
...
"The people of Wash Flower Valley must have gone mad! They abandoned everything to escape Lin Bai, ran so far, and now they're suddenly charging back, looking for a fight?"
"Obviously, they have no control over their actions and have lost their basic judgnt."
"Don't forget, there's a Spell in this world called Charm."
"I freaking know I can't defeat Lin Bai, but I just can't stop myself from wanting to go kill him," Most Loved Fairy typed, having regained his sanity for a mont. He glanced at the scrolling comnts and quickly added, "All you experts out there, please help us find a solution! This situation is too bizarre!"
"It's outrageous! Even Players are affected."
"The body you have in the ga is provided by the ga company. It's normal for the company to temporarily revoke your control over it! Just like in a cutscene, you can't control your character either!"
"But this ga claims to be 100% realistic..."
"What 100% realistic? That's just exaggerated marketing!"
"No, according to Most Loved Fairy, the Skill directly influences his thoughts. He himself has developed hostility towards Lin Bai, which isn't normal. I rember Lonely Old Man's post; Lin Bai's Skills can affect the real world..."
"Hypnotism!"
"Using hypnotism on Players in a ga is still a bit much."
"Try forcing a Player to log off."
"I've logged off. There are no effects afterward, no side effects."
"It only affects the characters in the ga, so it doesn't really matter. We can just play and have fun as always. As long as the ga company doesn't directly harm the players' physical bodies, the fact that Skills affect both Players and NPCs equally is what makes it 100% realistic. This is a conscientious ga company!"
"That scared for a second! As long as it doesn't affect us offline, it's fine. It's a unique experience, which makes it even more interesting."
"The Skills won't affect reality, but with Lin Bai possessing such powerful Skills, is it even possible for Players to take him down?"
"The range is ridiculous! Lin Bai is still live-streaming; how is he doing that? Even Mahayana Realm experts haven't demonstrated such outrageous Divine Skills!"
"You've never seen a Mahayana Realm expert in action, so how would you know what they're like?"
"Nonsense! If Mahayana Realm experts were as formidable as Lin Bai, they wouldn't need to travel so slowly. They could just teleport here and annihilate him. From this, we can deduce that Mahayana Realm experts can't defeat Lin Bai."
"If we define Immortals according to the legends of our world—capable of moving mountains and overturning seas, Blood-drop reincarnation, creating thousands of clones, knowing five thousand years of the past and five thousand years of the future—then Lin Bai's abilities are re child's play."
"There are no legends about Immortals in the ga. After ascension, there's no further news. The Fairy World map will probably only be unlocked when Players ascend."
"Stop talking about Immortals! I think it's impossible for such an overpowered Skill to exist in the early stages of the ga. Charming so many people from such a vast distance... who could possibly defeat Lin Bai? We might as well just give up and declare Lin Bai the supre ruler of the world."
"It must be a Clone Technique! Lin Bai said that if he can't be killed in one go, he'll revive infinitely. So, it's not surprising he knows a Clone Technique."
"Lin Bai's appearance on the live stream is a bit odd: his hair covers his eyes, a silk scarf covers his mouth, and his sleeve hides his left hand. Considering Lin Bai's Skills, I deduce that these three 'organs' aren't on his main body. The 'haunting' is probably caused by these three detached parts."
"Damn, they can be detached that far from the body?"
"So, to fight Lin Bai, we have to target his body parts first? That's absurd!"
"That's terrifying! If Lin Bai wanted to, he could even impregnate soone from ten thousand li away. Jiang Qingqin is so fortunate..."
"The comnt above is derailing the thread."
"It would be great to have such an ability in real life. You could be in class while your clone is out having fun with your girlfriend."
"Destroy Lin Bai's three 'organs,' and you should regain control of your bodies."
"You all might as well accept your fate. Lin Bai's left hand has also joined in. Good thing he doesn't have Lightning Storm, or none of you would survive."
"Lin Bai's lines are so cringey. Who's Peppa? Who's Pig Hero?"
"The Righteous Door is becoming more and more ethereal..."
"We can't find Lin Bai's three 'organs' anywhere in our field of vision."
"The targets are so small; it'd be a miracle if we could find them."
...
The Players' discussions were wild and varied, but eventually, the topic inevitably drifted towards the unknown. After all, most people weren't qualified to enter the ga and couldn't interact with Lin Bai inside it, so they were just watching for entertainnt.
Those who genuinely wanted to defeat Lin Bai had long since stopped discussing strategies in the comnts. They were focused on leveling up and improving their strength. Only with greater power would they be qualified to contend with Lin Bai; arguing in the comnts was pointless.
Lonely Old Man had changed his gar tag to Keep It Lowkey. Without notifying anyone, the cautious man hadn't entered the ga directly. Instead, he planned to join with the fifth batch of Players for greater stealth.
He didn't actually hate Lin Bai. Lin Bai was a character in the ga with his own agenda; it was perfectly normal for Lin Bai not to care about him. But the grudge against Crispy Rice had to be avenged. He couldn't swallow this insult.
Watching the chaotic comnts on Most Loved Fairy's live stream, Lonely Old Man sneered inwardly. What a bunch of fools. They still haven't realized that Lin Bai isn't part of this ga world. The officials have completely lost control of him. They deserve to be played by Lin Bai. Just wait until the day Lin Bai invades reality; then they'll *really* have sothing to laugh about…
...
The ones suffering the most were the people of Wash Flower Valley.
Initially, they weren't used to it. Provoked by Lin Bai, their anger flared, and they all rushed to kill him. But there were gaps between Lin Bai's provocations. During these intervals, the hostility would recede from their minds, and their rationality would return. Then, fear would seize their hearts.
After the initial impulsiveness, everyone adapted to their bodies being controlled by hostility. Gradually, no one was shouting about killing Lin Bai anymore. However, their hearts were still filled with hostility towards Lin Bai. But within that hostility, fear began to dominate, and their thoughts gradually returned. The hostility influenced their thoughts and controlled their actions, yet it didn't impair their ability to think...
This conflicting mindset—I'm terrified, but I still have to go after him—filled the people of Wash Flower Valley with growing horror.
"Valley Master, what should we do? We're not going to kill Lin Bai; we're going to our deaths!"
"What can I do?" Qi Lan trembled all over. "I can't control my murderous intent, or even my own body! I suspect that as soon as I get near Lin Bai, I'll attack him involuntarily!"
"Fairy Luo," Most Loved Fairy shouted hastily, "it's Lin Bai's mouth and eyes luring us forward! If we can destroy his mouth, we might return to normal!"
Ordinarily, he might not have resisted, but under the influence of the provocation, the only judgnt he could make was to try his best to eliminate everything related to Lin Bai.
Luo Xue had the highest cultivation and was at the forefront, knowing full well that charging forward was a suicide mission. She wanted to stop, but she couldn't suppress the hostility in her heart. Her fear of Lin Bai had reached its peak, and only then did she realize that she and Lin Bai were not opponents on the sa level at all...
She heard the shouts from behind and strained her eyes, trying to find Lin Bai's mouth in the surroundings, but in the vast forest, she saw nothing. A mouth, an eye, a hand—compared to the vast mountain forest, they were too insignificant.
She activated the floral ribbon in her hand. Tens of thousands of petals ford from Spiritual Energy flew out from the ribbon, blasting the trees before her and felling them in swathes. She attempted to hit the unseen Lin Bai with a saturation attack, but it was futile; the voice continued to bore relentlessly into her ears...
"Lin Bai, you despicable, shaless villain! You always resort to these underhanded tricks! Why don't you dare fight a proper duel?!" Luo Xue shrieked hysterically, her eyes red.
Out of fear, her voice trembled, tears stread down her cheeks, her elegant image shattered. Wildly brandishing her floral ribbon, she looked like a madwoman.
...
「At the sa ti.」
The leisurely marching Justice League Army suddenly picked up speed, heading towards the Wash Flower Valley mbers lured by Lin Bai.
A Beggar Gang Disciple excitedly reported the situation at Wash Flower Valley to the nearby NPCs, speaking with great animation.
The Sect Leader mbers of the Justice League Army had mixed feelings. Watching Lin Bai, who was still acting childish and cute, they all fell silent.
With such behavior, no one would believe he *wasn't* an Evil Spirit! However, a burst of imnse confidence surged within them. It's far better for others to suffer than for us to suffer. They saw hope in Lin Bai.
anwhile, Lin Bai was silently calculating the cooldown for switching roles in the Great Language System.
He realized his worries were entirely superfluous. With his current strength, those people from Wash Flower Valley couldn't even catch up to him, let alone harm him. If he weren't planning to incorporate Wash Flower Valley into the Justice League, he could have effortlessly annihilated them with just his three detached 'organs.' So, unknowingly, his strength had already grown this formidable.
...
Almost all the natives were monitoring the Justice League's movents through the Players.
Previously, when Lin Bai had slowed his offensive pace and begun acting like a child to cultivate Spoken Law Follows, many natives had mocked him, saying he was on a path to ruin. Who could have predicted such a sudden turn of events? Lin Bai's mouth and hand flew off to fight independently, and with re nonsense, he could Charm an entire Sect of people and incite their emotions...
When the natives heard this news, they were all stunned for a mont. Then, as if their tails had been stepped on, they all blurted out the sa word: "Impossible!"
But they quickly realized that nothing was truly impossible. So far, nothing Lin Bai had done had ever been within their expectations.
「Aboard the Sword Boat of the Sky Dragon Sword Sect, also currently roaming outside.」
The Enforcent Hall Elder looked at his Sect Leader and asked blankly, "Do we still run?"
The Sky Dragon Sword Sect's Leader, resembling a man at death's door, turned his stiff neck towards the Sect's Disciples. After a long pause, he finally let out a breath. "Run? Run, my ass! Pack up and return to the Sect! When Lin Bai arrives, the entire Sect will surrender. We simply can't deal with soone like him. Besides, the higher-ups have said that surrender will be pardoned."
"What about Lin Bai publicly releasing his patented secret manuals?" asked the Disciplinary Hall Elder.
"We'll cross that bridge when we co to it!" the Sect Leader sighed. "The Righteous Seven Sects at least try to reason with you. The Justice League doesn't bother with reason at all!"
He paused for a mont, then said wistfully, "For so reason, I'm starting to lose faith in the Righteous Seven Sects. With Lin Bai's demonic Divine Skills, I fear not even Mahayana Realm experts could achieve such feats."
Everyone fell silent. After a mont, the Sky Dragon Sword Sect's Leader seed to recall sothing and cautioned everyone, "Forget what I just said. Absolutely do not let word of this reach the Heavenly Sword Sect."
...
It wasn't just the Sky Dragon Sword Sect. Other Sects near Wash Flower Valley, such as the Treasures Refining Pavilion and Wind Spirit Observatory, all made the sa decision: return to their Sects and surrender imdiately when Lin Bai arrived.
That's right. Faced with the unbeatable Lin Bai, everyone chose to simply give up.
...
The Mahayana Realm teams dispatched by the Righteous Seven Sects and the Demonic Five Sects to eliminate Lin Bai also received the latest news.
「Heavenly Sword Sect.」
After a long silence, the purple-robed Ancestor said, "re Insignificant Skills. His cultivation might be above the Divinity Transformation Realm, but he can only bully those minor Sects. An Evil Cultivation Technique involving one eye, one hand, and one mouth... if he dares to provoke , I will naturally extinguish him with a single sword strike."
"Ancestor is mighty!" a Sword Immortal at the Void Piercing Stage said disdainfully. "There's no need for the Ancestor to act personally. We Disciples can eliminate him. Let him caper about for a few more days."
"Do not be careless," the purple-robed Ancestor said. "For him to be so audacious, he must have so backing. We must be wary of the Dao Protectors from the Righteous Door behind him."
"As the Ancestor commands," replied the nearby Disciples.
"Disciple, fetch a few issues of Justice Weekly," the purple-robed Ancestor instructed the attendant boy beside him. "Lin Bai's Divine Skills are peculiar. His understanding of the Laws might have so rit. You all should study it as well. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated..."
...
「Beast Taming Sect.」
On the back of a Flying Dragon several hundred ters long, a robust, farr-like man stood facing the wind. Beside him were hundreds of Disciples in Beast Taming Sect attire, making it difficult to distinguish whether they were Demon Beasts or humans.
Over a dozen Players sat on the Flying Dragon's back, each cradling a Demon Beast egg. They chatted privately while infusing the eggs with Spiritual Power, occasionally popping a Spirit Pill into their mouths to replenish their consud energy. They all looked exuberant, a stark contrast to the expressions of the Disciples from subordinate Sects. After all, by a stroke of luck, they had entered the Beast Taming Sect. Although they mostly served as news relays, it was equivalent to ascending to heaven in a single step; their treatnt was far superior to what they would have received in lesser Sects.
In just a few days, these dozen or so Players had already reached the Golden Core cultivation Realm. Now, if they could just hatch their Demon Beasts and borrow their power, they might even break through to the Nascent Soul Realm. Moreover, the Demon Beasts hatched with their Spiritual Power would achieve Telepathy with them from birth, and their transford appearance would be entirely up to the Players' desires... It was highly probable that the first batch of Beast-eared ladies in the ga would be born from their hands.
"Elder Qiu, Lin Bai's actions are tantamount to playing with fire; he's only inviting disaster. Should we speed up and apprehend Lin Bai before others do?" a solemn-voiced old man with a Fierce Tiger embroidered on his chest asked. "The Shape-altering Pill Formula in Lin Bai's possession is crucial to the future of our Beast Taming Sect. If it falls into others' hands, our Sect's future will be in peril!"
"There's no need to rush." Elder Qiu's gaze was profound. "Slow down. Let the others make contact with Lin Bai first. This move by Lin Bai is a show of force directed at us; he might have other tricks up his sleeve. We'll observe his next actions before deciding. It's not just our Beast Taming Sect; apart from the Heavenly Sword Sect, Heavenly Dao Sect, and Holy Extre Sect, other Sects might not necessarily want Lin Bai dead. He possesses too much unknown information. His value alive far exceeds his value dead."
