A New Feature Has Appeared! (2)
Hmm... Now that I think about it, it might actually be pretty good?
Upon careful consideration, that was the case. There was nothing to lose by starting a broadcast. To begin with, my face and personal details had already been completely exposed on the gallery. And even if people knew, it wasn't as if the gallery users with ill intentions could just come looking for me.
Choi Gang Bul Dak. In other words, according to my master—with whom I had now formed a master-disciple relationship—I was told that the cultivation world I resided in seemed to be in a very remote location among the heavenly sanctuaries.
On top of that, some unknown barrier was concealing the cultivation world, making it incredibly difficult to even project one's consciousness. She said that without the connection through the Daoyeongbang and the will from this side trying to summon her, it would likely have been impossible.
If even a renowned late-stage Soul Formation human cultivator had struggled that much, the odds for anyone weaker or just some random nobody would be even lower. Practically impossible, in fact.
Well. Even if there were beings on the Daoyeongbang capable of such a feat... those kinds of high-level existences would have no reason to bother. High-ranking cultivators couldn't possibly be that idle.
Anyway. The conclusion was that there was no harm in trying out broadcasting. On the contrary, if the stream took off, there were plenty of benefits. The biggest one? Raking in absurd amounts of spirit stones.
Kyu! After all, even in my previous life, once YouTubers got a bit big they practically raked in cash...
On top of that, the scale here was far larger, and the number of users was probably beyond anything I could imagine. Naturally, the returns upon success would be on a completely different level.
So even someone like Lin, who had never cared about this sort of thing, couldn't help but feel tempted.
While I was lost in thought for a long while—
Ding-!
Update complete. All modifications and new features have been applied. Enjoy immediately!
The Daoyeongbang had finished updating again in that short time.
Kyu! Nice! Maybe I should... check out some other streams?
As expected, people really do adapt quickly. Even though the feature was brand new, the Daoyeongbang was already flooded with videos like crazy.
Thanks to that, Lin could directly see what was happening in other worlds besides the nameless cultivation world where he lived. Among them, what caught my eye the most was none other than my master's cultivation world—Cheongryu-gye.
I clicked on the video as if possessed. What filled the screen was a hellscape that looked like the entire world was burning.
However, Nammyung Jonja Ju A-ran had stubbornly refused all contact and insisted on wandering alone even after reaching that realm. Because of that, she had suffered constant suppression—if not outright persecution—from every faction in Cheongryu-gye.
Normally, cultivators of that caliber were few in number and tended to gather together, making them hard to catch. That was why high-grade spirit beast byproducts traded for exorbitant prices. But Ju A-ran was the only one who stubbornly refused to form a group and wandered alone. Naturally, she became the number one target for every greedy faction.
So Nammyung Jonja Ju A-ran had continued to flee from the human cultivators who kept trying to hunt her in Cheongryu-gye, living the life of a fugitive. Naturally, she had less time to train, fewer resources, and her realm advancement grew more and more distant... a vicious cycle that kept repeating.
Because of that, rumors had recently spread that she had hidden her presence completely and gone into secluded training in some remote place to break through her bottleneck.
That was how it had been.
That was how it had been... until now.
Kyu... So Master had a story like that...
It was a bit shocking. I had only ever seen her bold, fearless side on the gallery, so I never imagined there was something like this behind it. Still... it looked like things had worked out well, so that was a relief. Thanks to the grace of the Yao God, she seemed to have successfully broken through.
She had said she would be busy for a while recently. So this was what she had been preparing! It was a moment that made me realize just how much influence my master truly had.
Watching the wicked human cultivators suffer was a little pitiful, but when I thought about it, they were the ones who had tormented her first. So it wasn't that pitiful. When you walked the path of cultivation, the line between good and evil became incredibly blurry anyway. Eventually everyone became someone's enemy and someone's benefactor. In the end, the one who survived was the winner.
Anyway. Thanks to my master, Cheongryu-gye was in complete chaos, and Lin continued reading the reactions.
Cheongryu-gye is where the Dimensional Commerce League and the Alliance's main branches are located, right? It's even a prime cultivation world in the center of the heavenly sanctuaries, so I doubt the League and Alliance will just back off... Is this really going to turn into an inter-realm war?
Kyu- Things over there must be in complete chaos right now...
It looked like they were on the verge of a cataclysmic upheaval. However, that wasn't something the current Lin needed to worry about. I was still too young to get involved in such matters, and this place was a remote backwater cultivation world far removed from the gaze of those major factions. Even if such a storm raged, the aftershocks would barely reach here.
Therefore, Lin decided to stop thinking about it for now and focus on quietly building strength in this remote corner.
Kyu! Whatever, let's just start the broadcast??
Ding-!
Broadcast preparation complete!
Begin streaming?
[YES]
Click-!
And so, Lin's first broadcast on the Daoyeongbang finally began.
