The footage captured was broadcasted live in real-time on the Global Times Livestream Platform, accessible to the entire world.
In other words, billions of netizens around the world witnessed this scene at this moment: that man, he’s standing up!
Not only did he stand up, but he was also struck by lightning!
Moreover, it seemed as if a faint and faintly discernible light curtain appeared around his body, the curtain was crimson red, emitting a weak glow.
And just now, the light curtain around this figure suddenly became visible around that figure.
It appeared to form a natural barrier, and the figure encased within the barrier seemed immune to all harm, as if even the searing lava could do nothing to him!
Even though the temperature near the crater was soaring higher, reaching hundreds to thousands of degrees even from a distance, if it weren’t for this protective barrier, this figure would have been roasted by the heat long ago.
If it were an ordinary person, even a gust of wind blowing from the crater would be enough to char their skin! Yet this figure remained completely unscathed, seemingly unbothered by the raging crater, ready to erupt at any moment, but that figure remained composed and unhurried.
The netizens watching the livestream were all astonished by this scene, and every livestreaming platform’s comment section was flooded, the density of comments directly obscured the screen, forcing major platforms to turn off the comment function.
But this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the netizens to discuss. Whether they were at work or sleeping, friends were spreading it through other means.
One to ten, ten to a hundred!
Compared to when the person sitting cross-legged at the crater was first discovered, the number of viewers had doubled!
Shocking the entire internet!
"This person, this person! He actually didn’t die!"
"He actually stood up!"
"Not only stood up, he was struck by lightning!"
"Trying to act cool and got struck by lightning!"
"Is he undergoing a tribulation here?"
"The halo around his body, such a divine miracle! I can’t believe I had the luck to witness it with my own eyes!"
"Oh my god, there are actually people cultivating immortals in this world!"
"Is this something we mere mortals are supposed to see!?"
"I support the comment above, I thought the governments would suppress this first, but I didn’t expect it to be broadcasted live to the world directly!"
"Heavens, I actually got to see an immortal today!"
"Who is this person!?"
"Who is cultivating immortality at the crater!?"
"Which country is he from?"
"He must be from the Great Xia Kingdom! Just look at the sitting posture, it’s clearly Daoist! And the clothing style, definitely a citizen of Great Xia!"
"Yes, cultivating immortality to return and annihilate those neighboring troublemaking countries with a snap of a finger!"
"Will this directly open the era of high martial arts!"
.....
.....
As the internet was swept up in a storm, meanwhile at Imperial Capital University, dormitory 207, this moment was no less explosive than the news of the sinking of Divine Light Country!
"This is defying the heavens! Look, isn’t that Beichen!" Han Yuan held his phone, the screen displaying a screenshot of the livestream, and handed it to Liang Dong.
"Oh my god, it really looks like him! Look at that back figure, although the picture is a bit blurry, I think it’s Beichen, very similar! Just a coincidence that Beichen went to Jingli Mountain. What do you think?"
Liang Dong glanced at the screenshot on Han Yuan’s phone and then looked at his own tablet’s livestream, zooming in repeatedly, trying to see the clothing clearly.
But the three were somewhat disappointed, the live broadcast was too blurry, the camera kept shaking, and there was a screen full of volcanic ash blocking the view.
"Quick, give him a call! As long as the call goes through, we can confirm it’s Beichen!"
"Yes! I want to call him in front of the whole world!"
Han Yuan, with a flash of inspiration, immediately got excited, Liang Dong and Wu You chiming in.
"Hurry, call him!"
The two urged in unison, thinking that they could confirm this globally watched silhouette was their college mate and dorm inhabitant, their vanity swelled at the thought.
It ignited the passion of everyone in dorm 207!
Han Yuan didn’t hesitate, immediately dialing Lin Beichen’s number.
"Doot~"
"Doot~"
"The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later...."
While dialing, Han Yuan kept his eyes on the live stream on Liang Dong’s phone, thinking how exciting it would be to see that figure pull out a phone and answer his call simultaneously!
But things didn’t go as planned. Han Yuan then used Wu You’s phone to dial Lin Beichen’s number, yet the prompt still said the user was temporarily unavailable!
"We should have crowdfunded to get Beichen a new phone from Wahua earlier!"
"Always failing to connect at crucial moments!"
Han Yuan, fuming, smashed his tightly gripped phone against the bed frame!
Liang Dong and Wu You, seeing this, were also a bit disheartened. They had hoped to confirm that the globally sensational figure undergoing immortal cultivation and struck by lightning was their college roommate, but were unable to do so.
"Keep a calm heart, Han. We’ll know everything once Beichen comes back, and besides, the idea of immortal cultivation is a bit too far-fetched. I don’t think Beichen would be involved in such things. Beichen achieving something through Traditional Martial Arts isn’t that exaggerated either, we might have overthought it!"
Wu You patted Han Yuan on the shoulder to comfort him, while also sharing his own viewpoint.
