The Lone SF Transmigrator in the Otherworld Forum

***

Unbelievable.

This doesn't make any sense.

"Why? How?"

Soul Chaser Huan Huan Yao Yao tightly shut his eyes to the devastation around him.

How did it come to this?

He had prided himself on never being surprised by anything, having reached the Transcendent Realm through Illusion Techniques.

"How..."

His voice trembled slightly, his graying hair tied up as he approached fifty years of age.

"Cough."

It had started simply enough.

All they had to do was chase down the one remnant left of the fallen Namgung Clan and find the key to their secret vault.

It was a task that could have been handled by sending just one Peak expert from the sect, without him needing to get involved.

However, due to the importance of the matter and the need for swift resolution, he had deployed his subordinate units to cast a Net of Heaven and Earth.

He had been getting irritated, wondering where the target had been hiding all this time without a trace. Moreover, even the Vice Captain who had reported finding the target had gone silent, pushing his irritation to the extreme.

Was it because he usually left the unit management to them out of laziness? He thought it might be time to instill some discipline.

That's when they found him. The Namgung Clan's young brat.

Judging by the surrounding traces, it seemed his subordinates had already been dealt with. Surprising, considering the target appeared to be nothing more than a fresh-faced youth at the First-Rate Realm.

However, it could not be forgotten that he was an old hand who had roamed the ever so dangerous Jianghu for many years.

Before he even showed his surprise, he immediately made his move.

Jianghu was full of eccentric individuals and events that defied logic. If one were to be surprised by each of these, their head would be the first to fall off.

Though he sensed only a handful of Inner Qi from his opponent, he didn't let his guard down.

He unleashed his Phantom Cloud Demonic Art. A vicious Illusion Technique that traps the target in a fog, showing them visions of being endlessly attacked by the beings they fear most.

His unique martial art that leads to death as the victim's Inner Qi is completely drained while they struggle in vain!

However, just as the brat seemed to fall for the illusion, flailing his arms in panic like a startled deer...

Along with the brat's scream, a scene of hell on earth unfolded.

"Have you heard that rumor?"

"Ah, about the Intangible Divine Sword?"

"Who doesn't know about him these days? About the Intangible Divine Sword who can cut you just by meeting your gaze."

"Haha. That's right. But from what I've heard, they say the Intangible Divine Sword is actually from the Namgung Clan bloodline?"

"There are rumors that a Sword Immortal descended from the heavens and possessed the last direct descendant of the Namgung Clan to punish the Demonic Cult bastards."

"Anyway, it's fortunate. Thanks to him, the Demonic Cult bastards have all retreated, claiming they need to regroup, right?"

"They say heroes emerge in times of chaos, and this fits perfectly."

The bustling inn suddenly fell silent. It was because everyone was listening intently to the conversation between the two martial artists. Realizing this, the martial artists cleared their throats and began speaking loudly enough for everyone to hear.

"But... there are also rumors like this. Some say the Intangible Divine Sword was originally just an ordinary martial artist who obtained the power of an Immortal through human sacrifice, driven mad by revenge. Otherwise, how could someone jump from First-Rate to the realm of the Mind Sword in an instant? It doesn't make sense!"

"Hieek!"

"How dare you speak of him like that!"

"Oh my, oh my."

The mention of human sacrifice caused a brief commotion in the quiet inn. Clearly, everyone showed great interest in the Intangible Divine Sword. Moreover, the martial artist speaking had deliberately chosen provocative words.

"Hmm... It's true that when he slaughters the Demonic Cult members, his face is filled with a terrifying aura."

"You know about that day too, right? The day the Heavenly Demon Sword appeared in the world."

"Kkkeung. That day, I truly thought a God of War, no, an Asura had descended."

The martial artist who continued speaking shuddered slightly, seemingly recalling the events of that day.

The incident that made the Intangible Divine Sword known throughout the Central Plains, also called the 'Demon Sword Blood Battle'.

The Intangible Divine Sword brought the Heavenly Demon Sword to the Martial Alliance and made a grand announcement.

-The Heavenly Demon Sword you seek is in my hands! Come and fight me if you dare. I shall be waiting at Hubei, where the Wudang Sect used to be, in half a month!

It was the day when 30% of the Demonic Cult's invasion force for the Central Plains had gathered.

For some reason, even the Martial Alliance went to great lengths to publicize the Intangible Divine Sword's outrageous declaration.

And when that day came.

It was said that barely over a hundred Demonic Cult members survived to return.

Rumors spread like wildfire.

It wasn't just Demonic Cult members who gathered in Hubei, where Wudang Mountain was located, on that day.

From wandering warriors who came to watch after hearing the rumors, to a significant number from the Orthodox Factions, and even officials from the government; they all came to witness.

An explosive tension enveloped Wudang Mountain. It was tense enough that a war could have broken out at any moment.

However.

-This is a personal matter related to the Heavenly Demon Sword, so others should not interfere! Even if it is you Demonic Cult members! If you touch anyone else, you shall never find the Heavenly Demon Sword!

At first, the Demonic Cult members couldn't hide their sneers. But that didn't last long. As soon as he started moving, their expressions turned pale.

Those who witnessed the horrific scene that day didn't dare to even think of challenging the Intangible Divine Sword.

It was a divine might so alien that everyone who watched somehow felt a sense of discomfort.

The phenomenon of hundreds of Demonic Cult members being separated with a single strike was enough to even cause a pandemic of optical illusions. After all, it couldn’t be true.

Is there something wrong with my eyes? Why does it seem like my vision is split in half?

Eventually, a windstorm of Sword Qi erupted, inexplicably splitting everything within a 20-zhang radius around the Intangible Divine Sword.

The events of that day were still a hot topic of discussion.

"For some reason, they say he's gone into seclusion now."

"Indeed. If he had pushed a little more, we could have driven out all the Demonic Cult members. What a shame."

"I heard it is because of the karma from killing."

"But weren't those gathered at Mount Hubei that day the ones who had trampled the Central Plains and committed all sorts of heinous crimes? Why should the Intangible Divine Sword suffer mental anguish for that?!"

"Well... who knows. How can ignorant folks like us presume to understand his intentions?"

Surely, no one would dare to question the Intangible Divine Sword who had gone into seclusion.

And as for Namgung Jin.

I got a Vibroblade (SSR) on my first draw.. Is this good?

But still...

A bit disappointing. SR is just average, right?

Virdel closed the community page with a frown. The posts she had just seen were controversial topics that had been causing a stir recently.

"..."

There was something vaguely unpleasant about those posts.

While she personally didn't care much, if they were posts inciting discord within the community, she would have to intervene directly, so she couldn't help but worry.

Recently, changes in the [Integrated Dimensional Community] had led to a rapid increase in users.

If the new users were just engaging in normal activities, she wouldn't need to pay much attention, but the reality was different.

With the surge in users, the number of 'abnormal' users had also increased dramatically, keeping her busy lately. Of course, the new Moderator 'MagicIsJustForSupport' seemed to be working hard, so she still had time to practice her swordsmanship.

She closed her eyes and steadied her breathing.

Ssseup- Haaaa...

The sound of the flowing waterfall faded away, followed by the babbling of the stream. Even the chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves in the wind disappeared as she gradually sank into the deep world of nothingness within herself.

All her bodily sensations focused inward, maintaining a state somewhere between the unconscious and conscious realms.

Twitch-

She felt something the size of a millet grain twitch near her heart. It felt different from the power source of her suit.

How to put it? A silver flame, perhaps?

Whenever she entered her Imagery Domain, a silver flame was always present.

What could it be?

She didn't know.

But she couldn't ignore it either.

That day not long ago, when she felt she had overcome a small wall while practicing her Dimensional Slash.

She was aware that she had cut and annihilated something, but she didn't know what it was.

She could only worry about the anomalies that had occurred since then.

Especially since obtaining this flame, the strange sensations had been gradually expanding.

It was as if she could almost tangibly feel the world, the existence of dimensions.

But pondering alone yielded no answers, and it seemed she would have to ask the Administrator.

She hesitated, wondering if she dared to speak to him first, but...

She bit her lip and steeled her resolve.

[(DevilKingVirdel): Uh... Excuse me... May I ask you something?]

[(Cosmic Emperor): Yeah?]

Her face, which had been pale, regained some color as she received an immediate response.

[(DevilKingVirdel): Well... It is about something that happened recently....]

She earnestly explained the phenomena she had been experiencing.

[(Cosmic Emperor): Hmm. Is that so?]

Fortunately, he seemed to show /genesisforsaken
