### Chapter 4 The Grand Scroll Unfolds Once Again
==============================
As the notification suddenly popped up on his retina,
Strong Brother was completely flabbergasted.
Could this be the legendary entrance exam equivalent to a hidden plot in a game?
And it’s tied to the most mysterious organization in the game world, Extermination of Immortals?
Of course, he agreed to join!
With such a massive opportunity right before him, how could he not be overjoyed?
“Sorry for putting you through so much hardship.”
Wei Wenxuan seemed like a completely different person at this moment, his face beaming with a smile. Before he even got close, a warm spring breeze wafted over.
“Snap… snap…”
Strong Brother’s hands were instantly restored, with a dark golden pill appearing in his palm.
“This is a Little Recovery Pill. Taking it will immediately heal your injuries. I might have been a bit rough earlier, so please don’t take it to heart,” Wei Wenxuan said slowly.
Strong Brother hurriedly waved his hands, “No, no, no! This was just a test from the senior, it’s totally fine!”
“Just take the pill already.”
“Oh, right!”
As the pill slid down his throat, a wave of warmth instantly spread from his dantian to his limbs, as if he were soaking in a hot spring—comforting and delightful.
When Strong Brother came to, miraculously, most of his injuries had healed; only some light bruises remained on his skin, and he figured that within a day, he’d be completely fine.
Not just the players on-site, but all the viewers in the live streaming room were left speechless.
They still couldn’t believe that the relentless torment that Wei Wenxuan had subjected Strong Brother to was actually the entrance exam for Extermination of Immortals?
How ridiculously harsh!
It was appallingly harsh, nearly unbelievable.
That kind of thing you’d only read about in novels was happening right before their eyes, no wonder the players felt a tad absurd and out of place.
Was it really necessary to be this extreme?
Cold Little Rain couldn’t help but speak up, “Strong Brother, the man changes his face faster than a chameleon. Sure, Sister Musashi is a good person, but that doesn’t mean everyone in Extermination of Immortals is like her.
You should really think it over.”
She was genuinely scared and fearful of Wei Wenxuan; from the gaze he had shown before, she could clearly sense that he was genuinely trying to beat Strong Brother to a pulp, without a hint of mercy.
Now, his expression changed like flipping a switch—how could such a person be trusted?
Cold Little Rain’s thoughts echoed the feelings of a sizable portion of the netizens.
To be so ruthless to a fellow apprentice, even if treatment was given afterwards, could the damage and pain that came in between simply be swept under the rug?
Players with modern mindsets naturally couldn’t comprehend Wei Wenxuan’s actions.
Hearing Cold Little Rain’s criticism, Wei Wenxuan showed no sign of anger, simply stating,
“Do you know why Extermination of Immortals keeps its head down and doesn’t stay in the mortal realm?”
Cold Little Rain shook her head.
Wei Wenxuan turned around, facing away from Strong Brother and the group, gazing through the layers of branches at the vast blue sky.
“Only because the name Extermination of Immortals conflicts with the Heavenly Dao!
Everyone in this world dreams of shedding their mortal coil, yearning for longevity and ultimate bliss, and the only way to achieve immortality is through cultivation.
This is the so-called Heavenly Dao that people believe in.
It’s also the reason for the flourishing of the seven major human cultivation sects.
But really, has anyone ever succeeded in transforming into an immortal?
No one knows.
Yet, people still flock to it because cultivation can at least extend one’s lifespan by several hundred years; compared to mere mortals’ paltry hundred years, the temptation is simply irresistible—nobody can say no.
Thus, whether human, monster, or demon, as long as they are top-notch experts, their ultimate goal is to become an immortal.
To reach that goal, they can stop at nothing.
The existence of Extermination of Immortals isn’t just about opposing everyone—it’s because we’ve long understood that the Heavenly Dao might not be as benevolent as we think.
The millennium cycle is approaching.
Unfortunately, everyone in this world is lost in the beautiful dream of becoming immortal, unaware that Heaven and Earth are uncaring, treating all things as sacrifice.
Since Extermination of Immortals seeks to defy Heaven and Earth, those who believe they can become immortals from the human race, monster race, and demon race are all our enemies.
Against the power of three races with a single strength.
Ask yourself, if one does not possess unyielding character, patient will, and a determination to achieve their goal at all costs,
Could they betray the three races and stand in opposition to everyone?
Could they dare?”
【From Sky Void Academy, Strong Brother’s Cold Value +468】
【From Flowerless Palace, Cold Little Rain’s Cold Value +423】
【From Thousand Bird City, Li Da’s Cold Value +376】
【From Thousand Bird City, Qian San’s Cold Value +349】
……
【From Heavenly Sword Sect, Firefly’s Cold Value +0.8】
【From Thousand Bird City, Tang Tong’s Cold Value +0.9】
……
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What kind of bizarre world view was this game set in?
In a serious cultivation world, there’s actually an organization that doesn’t believe in gods?
Is Extermination of Immortals that ridiculously awesome?
No, it’s not just awesome; it’s straight-up mind-blowing!
Not only do they not believe in gods, but they also want to fight against them!
Against Heaven, against Earth, and against humanity!
No wonder even Little Musashi, just a regular member, faced the threats of numerous great demons without flinching—she was already geared up to grapple with Heaven and Earth. Why should she fear any petty demons?
At that moment, Strong Brother realized what kind of organization he had joined.
Initially, he only wanted revenge for his master and to inherit Little Musashi’s spirit, but now he saw that Extermination of Immortals bore such a breathtaking mission.
It was no wonder that Wei Wenxuan, as the leader of the Demon-Slaying Squad, put him through so many tests.
He just hoped that every newcomer to Extermination of Immortals could feel the significant burden hidden in this way.
A heavy sense of mission suddenly engulfed him.
“Strong Brother! I also want to join Extermination of Immortals! Can I be an introducer?
I’m great at taking a beating, I guarantee I’ll let Wei Wenxuan give me a thorough thrashing.
If I scream even once, then I’m your grandson.”
“Whoa! In a world of cultivation, we’re anti-cultivation!
I’ve suddenly found a new way for the people to rise up, breaking all the weird spirits and monsters!”
“Extermination of Immortals is really something!
Just this grand action plan alone has placed an invisible pressure on players like us who just wanted to be lazy in the cultivation world.
Boohoo, we just want to play the game!
Why do we have to know so much!”
“A millennium cycle? What does that even mean?
Are we players going to hit the jackpot soon, facing a major event in the cultivation world?
No wonder Ji Shen has been so active lately.
So that’s the reason behind it all.
I get it!”
Strong Brother, filled with fervor, half-kneeled in front of Wei Wenxuan, his voice strong and resolute, “Please, Captain, assign me a mission. I will accomplish it, even if it means going through fire and water!”
Wei Wenxuan glanced at him, shaking his head, “First, enter the higher-ups of Sky Void Academy; that will be your mission for the next few years.”
【Ding! Your main quest has been updated.】
【Within three years, become the Inner Sect Chief of Sky Void Academy.】
Strong Brother gritted his teeth, “Rest assured, I will complete the mission!”
Wei Wenxuan seemed pleased, “Very good.”
