Chapter 157
Chapter 157: Actually, everyone in that chat is an account of mine!
Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu
After Cave Lord Snow Wolf’s reply, none of the seniors in the group came out. Originally, whenever someone started up a topic, the lurking seniors would come out in waves. Maybe it was due to the absence of the ‘always online’ Senior Northern River and the ‘always seeking death’ Senior Thrice Reckless Mad Saber?
It seemed that the Flooding Army had suffered a huge blow after losing these two leaders.
Song Shuhang felt that the atmosphere was strange. He looked at the number of online members on the left. And unexpectedly, only the founder, True Monarch Yellow Mountain, was online. Everyone else was offline… or rather, invisible.
Song Shuhang casually wrote in the chat: “Senior Yellow Mountain, with what have you been busy lately?”
He remembered that True Monarch Yellow Mountain had something urgent going on. He needed at least two months to come and take away Doudou. Therefore, since he couldn’t think of anything else, he casually asked.
“Haha. I’m waiting for an interesting fellow to come out of the seal,” True Monarch Yellow Mountain said with a smile.
Then, he sent a screenshot.
It was the screenshot of the blog post of a friend. However, this screenshot didn’t come from True Monarch Yellow Mountain. It had been taken from a certain ‘Small Orange’.
The one that had written this blog post went by the ID of ‘Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist’.
Title: Wahaha! True Monarch Yellow Mountain, you stupid c*nt! You’ve suppressed me for a whole 200 years!
Content: However, I’ve finally got a gist of the algorithm of your formation. I’m going to break this seal soon! And as soon as I break it, I’ll be able to roam in the mortal world once again! And when that happens, you’ll pay the consequences! Wahaha! This time, I won’t show you mercy!
This blog post had already many ‘likes’ and comments:
1) After a whole 200 years, Daoist Priest is finally going to break the seal and come out. Once you’re out, you should tell us once again about your feats back in the days.
2) Is Daoist Priest’s chuuni disease flaring up again?
3) Daoist Priest’s stories are the best. I’m thinking of adapting them into a webnovel.
4) Daoist Priest, you shouldn’t stop taking your medicine!
5) You can’t take medicine carelessly. However, if the one taking the medicine is Daoist Priest, I’m sure nothing bad will happen to him. At most, he’ll act even cuter.
6) Daoist Priest, breaking a seal should be a secret matter. Is it okay for you to casually write it on the Internet?
7) This man deserves a standing ovation…
There were hundreds of people that had left comments under the post.

From this post, Song Shuhang could understand that True Monarch Yellow Mountain had sealed this fellow named ‘Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist’ for 200 years. And now that he was about to break the seal he decided to go online and boast about it? Moreover, he was discovered by True Monarch Yellow Mountain’s alternative account while doing so?
“However, this guy has been sealed for 200 years… how can he go online in that state?” Song Shuhang asked.
Was True Monarch Yellow Mountain giving him preferential treatment? Allowing him to go online while still sealed?
“Haha. Now I’ll explain what happened,” True Monarch Yellow Mountain said with a smile. “This Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist is an elder of the Penniless Thief Sect, and also a very amusing fellow. 200 years ago, he already achieved Fourth Stage Innate Realm. In these years he passed in the seal, he should have gotten even stronger.
200 years ago, he entered my immortal cave, stealing every treasure inside. But since he had already escaped, I decided to forget this matter. After all, the Penniless Thief Sect was an expert in this field. At most, I would have given him a good beating had I run into him again.
However, after stealing my things, he started to brag everywhere. He said that both my ‘sealing techniques’ and ‘formations’ were trash. And that it had been a joke to break into my immortal cave. In addition, he said that even if I were to put all my strength into a sealing technique, he would break it in an instant.
Therefore… I fulfilled his wishes. After spending a lot of time, I was finally able to find him. And later, I used a gigantic meteorite in conjunction with my ‘Five Fingers Mountain Sealing Technique’ to seal him. After 200 years, the seal is still there, and he has yet to come out.”
Song Shuhang: “…”
Never boast about something you’re not capable of!
True Monarch Yellow Mountain continued, “A month ago, I felt that it was time to release him. Therefore, I went to check the place where he was sealed. Upon my arrival, I saw that he was earnestly trying to break my Five Fingers Mountain Sealing Technique. This piqued my interest; I was curious to see how long it would take him to break the seal. Therefore, I started to watch him quietly and didn’t intervene.
Unfortunately, I had no idea how long it would take him to break the seal. And I couldn’t keep watching him all the time. First, I don’t have this much time. Second, if I were to keep looking at him, he would notice. Therefore, I paid an average man and asked him to disguise himself as someone that had entered the seal by mistake.
After being alone for a whole 200 years, Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist was really frustrated. As soon as he saw a living soul, he was overjoyed. He used a magic art to confuse the man, making him come over to his place every day. And thanks to him, he was able to understand all the changes that had occurred in the external world.
He was very interested in the external world. Therefore, the very next day, I told the man to give him a tablet with a SIM card. With that, he would be able to go online. Of course, I had properly modified this tablet. He couldn’t download apps or open web pages. There were only some small games that he could play offline. There was only one app that could go online, and that was a homemade ‘Instant Messaging Program A’. At first, I was planning to finish this program and transfer there our ‘Nine Provinces Number One Group’. But I didn’t think I would get the chance to use it so soon.
That ‘Instant Messaging Program A’ is very similar to the program we’re using right now. The main server is also under my control. And Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist is currently the sole user of the program.
Afterwards, I created 300 accounts and added them to Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist’s friend list. Later, I created a group and added him there so that he could chat with my clones every day. And that mortal would go every day to where he was sealed to give him some unrelated news. While at it, he also brought along a portable charger for the tablet.”
After reading this, Song Shuhang couldn’t help but laugh.
“After one month, Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist started to show interest in the group. After all, the only app that could go online was that homemade ‘Instant Messaging Program A’. Therefore, as soon as he got bored with those offline games, he started to shamelessly boast about his past deeds in the chat.
I made my accounts go along with him. Some were laughing at him, some were praising him, and others were entertaining him with debates. With that, he wouldn’t be bored. And at the same time, it would make him think that these ‘online friends’ were just normal people.
And today… Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist used the blog feature of the program to write this article. And with the help of more than a hundred accounts, I was able to flood it with a tsunami of spam.”
“…” Song Shuhang was silent. To do all of this, just how bored True Monarch Yellow Mountain was?
At this time, he started to imagine a funny scene, ‘Boy, you find this chat very lively, right? Actually, everyone here is just an account of mine! In this entire chat, there is just the two of us. If you don’t believe me, do you want me to use my other accounts to say this same sentence?’
And this was exactly what was happening to Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist right now.
All his friends were just True Monarch Yellow Mountain’s accounts. It seemed that True Monarch was really enjoying himself!
At this time, Cave Lord Snow Wolf said, “Senior Yellow Mountain, that Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist might not be this stupid. Maybe he has already discovered everything and has been just teasing you for this whole month?”
After all, he had cultivated till the Fifth Stage Spiritual Emperor Realm. Unless he really was that naive, there was no way someone like him could be so stupid.
In other words, Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist was using this ‘Instant Messaging Program A’ every day while making fun of True Monarch Yellow Mountain.
“It doesn’t matter. After all, am I not doing the same? And I’m having quite a lot of fun by doing this,” True Monarch Yellow Mountain said with a smile. “Anyway, at first, I was just planning to release him. But now, he ended up playing along with me for so long, isn’t it quite interesting?”
Cave Lord Snow Wolf sent a prostrating emoji, “Senior Yellow Mountain’s level is just too high. I can only prostrate in admiration! ?”
Song Shuhang also sent a prostrating emoji. However, Doudou said that True Monarch Yellow Mountain was preparing to break through the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm. Was it really okay to waste so much time with Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist?
At this time, ‘Stressed by a Mountain of Books’ sent a message inside the Nine Provinces Number One Group: “Haha. Little Snow Wolf, you’re still alive, eh?”
Eh? Isn’t this ID mine? However, I didn’t write anything…
Song Shuhang immediately turned his head and looked at the computer.
Then, he noticed that True Monarch White was smiling at him. After downloading those files, Song Shuhang forgot to log out from his account, ‘Stressed by a Mountain of Books’. And now, True Monarch White had used the account to send that message!
Wait…! Song Shuhang’s mouth was wide open. Just how much time had passed since True Monarch White had started to mess with the computer? Unexpectedly, he was already able to use it. And he could even use the keyboard to type.
Moreover, weren’t people using traditional characters 150 years ago? Senior White had memorized their simplified versions so quickly?
Senior White, if they were to find out that you can learn things so easily, how bad would those natives on some Pacific Island that are currently being tortured into learning Chinese by Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman feel?
“Hello, Senior White,” Cave Lord Snow Wolf immediately understood that this message was sent by True Monarch White. Therefore, he quickly replied.
Stressed by a Mountain of Books: “When I have free time, I’ll pay you a visit. Did your wife give birth to some wolf cubs already?”
“Senior, you are welcome to come anytime. As for the wolf cubs, they’re already born. There is a whole pack now,” Cave Lord Snow Wolf replied. However, whether these words were sincere or not, only he knew.
True Monarch White scrolled the names of the fellow daoists in the Nine Provinces Number One Group and asked, “How come I don’t see Sword Monarch Liu Er?”
True Monarch Yellow Mountain send a bitterly smiling emoji, “Sword Monarch Liu Er gave in to his Inner Demon when he tried to break through the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm thirty years ago. He was reduced to ashes under the fire of the tribulation. ?”
“Even Sword Monarch Liu Er failed to cross the tribulation,” Senior White heaved a sigh. He was holding his chin when both of his eyes became dim. Without realizing, he had fallen into a contemplative state.
At this time, Song Shuhang, who had been continuously on alert, immediately raised his guard!
This was so that he’d be able to put into action his ‘wake-up call’ plan as soon as possible. Were Senior White to suddenly stumble and fall… he would destroy the entire floor!

Inside Jiangnan’s prison.
Zhao Bulu, the disciple of the Moon Saber Sect whose legs had been broken, was sent here.
Right now, he was anxiously looking at his ‘cellmate’. It was a bald and sturdy caucasian man. On his bald head were six burnt dots… [1]
