The scene changed to a forest clearing, away from prying eyes. The little girl lay down on a cushion, her hand clutching a talisman, the talisman used to contact the Immortal Realm.
"You’ll wait for , right?" the little girl asked.
"Huh?" The swordsman looked confused.
"Say it! You’ll wait for !" The little girl blurted out as her hand slowly tore the talisman she was clutching.
The swordsman ruffled her hair. "Of course. I’ll prepare a nice dish and wait for you here."
The talisman tore apart. Light shone as the teleportation array began to construct itself from the talisman.
"Eight years! No! Six years! Within six years, once I’m strong enough to resist the laws of the lower realm, I’ll co back! Don’t you dare forget !" Tears welled up in the girl’s eyes as she shouted, instructing the swordsman as if her life depended on it.
"I won’t. I’ll call you." The swordsman said as he made a hand sign of a phone near his ear.
The girl smiled. The teleportation array completed, and the girl vanished amidst the light.
The scene changed to the Immortal Realm. The girl’s symptoms quickly alleviated, and she grew better and better. She woke up in the morning with her hand clutching the artifact called the U-Phone 2.
Suddenly, the ringtone rang. The na displayed on the U-Phone screen was the swordsman. The girl smiled as she covered her mouth in disbelief. This artifact could truly contact soone across realms.
"Yes?" The girl answered the call.
"Little girl, have you eaten breakfast yet?" The swordsman’s voice ca through, the voice she wanted to hear.
The scene changed to the present. The little girl from those years had now grown into a fine goddess. She stopped her zither session and slowly took out the artifact called the U-Phone 2 to check the content.
It was the broadcast of the swordsman. He was cooking a new dish. The live feed was shown privately to her, and she smiled before typing a response with a gentle smile.
"I’ll go back soon."
...
The advertisent ca to an end, and the lights returned. The people in the hall applauded as the advertisent film ended, appreciating the work.
The people in the hall began clamoring about the advertisent film.
"Dream Butterfly is very beautiful in this scene, and the song she plays is very touching. This is like getting a free appreciation ticket to her performance!"
"I agree. Her dress and her deanor. If I didn’t know before that she was just a mortal, I would think that she truly is the princess of the Immortal Realm!"
"The little girl is very adorable. She seems to have solid cultivation too. Which clan is she from? I saw her fly in the film. Clearly she must have already reached Core Formation."
While people were talking about Dream Butterfly and the adorable little girl, one of them chid in. She was a woman who seed to be a core disciple of so sect.
"All of you, does anyone know the man who acted as that swordsman? I’m not familiar with him. Who was he?" the woman asked.
"I don’t know. His face seems a bit familiar, but I can’t quite rember it. I only know that it feels familiar."
Another girl chid in. "I don’t know either. I think I saw him for the first ti. He clearly has so cultivation, at least Core Formation, and he’s very charming. Those gentle eyes that give off the air of a big brother like that, kyaaaa!"
While the guests were talking about the film, Jian Ganglie walked onto the stage, and the guests gradually sat down.
Jian Ganglie smiled as he looked around at everyone. The screen behind him displayed a large presentation of the U-Phone 2.
"Thank you very much, everyone. Thank you!" Jian Ganglie began. His new clothes, the turtleneck shirt, the jeans, and the sneakers, along with his new look of a slick and trimd beard with a man bun, drew attention from the people in the hall.
Especially from those who knew him.
"Huh? Senior Brother?" Jian Heng uttered in surprise at the new look of his forr senior brother. His senior brother looked different now. No, he looked younger than he usually did.
On the stage, Jian Ganglie nodded and smiled at the audience, waiting for the hall to gradually grow silent.
Once he saw that everyone was ready to listen to him, he began.
"Thank you very much for your support. I’m Jian Ganglie, the lead designer and producer of the U-Phone series. Many in this hall might know and have a question in your minds."
"Why does my look change?" He paused, looking at the audience who were nodding along.
"Your curiosity is on point! I did this to draw your attention!" Jian Ganglie spoke with humor, and the audience in the hall laughed at the joke.
Jian Heng smiled as well. His lancholic look deepened, his expression mixed with both guilt and nostalgia.
"It seems you have already overco your darkness and chosen a new path, Senior Brother. This junior brother congratulates you for overcoming your heart demon," Jian Heng murmured under his breath.
On the stage, Jian Ganglie continued.
"As you all saw in the advertisent, the U-Phone’s ability to contact across realms is real. It’s not an exaggeration!" Jian Ganglie said with confidence.
This feature was one of the main selling points. Even though the people who could send this device to the Immortal Realm were rare, nearly all mid to large sects had so connection in the Immortal Realm, so they had a way to test it.
As for his confidence, it ca from both Wei Chen’s guarantee and Jian Ganglie’s own understanding of the array blueprint that Wei Chen had provided. After he fully understood how it worked, he was certain that this device, with enough cultivation power supplied to it, could even contact the Immortal Realm.
"Are you sure you’re not lying?" one of the audience mbers asked with skepticism.
"The features shown in the advertisent are all real, except that there are so requirents. To contact the upper realm, or the Immortal Realm, the caller must have at least the Nascent Soul cultivation realm in order to make the call and inject additional spirit qi into the U-Phone 2!" said Jian Ganglie.
"I see, so it’s like the ancestor jade slip that can be used to contact the Immortal Realm," another audience mber chid in.
Jian Ganglie turned to that audience mber. "No, it’s not the sa."
He paused. The screen behind him on the stage continued to display the details of the U-Phone and the function Jian Ganglie was about to explain.
"As you all know, the ancestor jade slip used to contact an ancestor in the Immortal Realm is a one ti use item, and it only works one way. Our U-Phone 2 supports two way communication and can be used anyti, as long as the caller in the lower realm has enough spiritual qi to power it. This allows you to ask your ancestor about cultivation and receive their guidance in many different endeavors, as long as your ancestor also has a U-Phone 2."
Jian Ganglie paused and then looked toward the representatives of the famous and renowned factions, especially those seated in the VIP boxes.
"I believe many of the honorable guests in the VIP boxes have the ans to send small items to the Immortal Realm. You can use those thods to send a U-Phone 2 to your ancestor and test whether our U-Phone 2’s function is true or not." Jian Ganglie confidently challenged the audience in the VIP boxes.
"Moreover! The function for recording videos, like Mr. Wei did for his broadcast, is also packed into this tiny device! This ti, you can record anything you want and upload it to the Spirit Net!"
"With the support of the U-Tube platform by the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, you will also earn inco from the viewership of people who watch your content! Whether it is cultivation Q&A, cooking, or recording your own adventure in a secret realm, all of you can enjoy this function!"
"Also! The U-Tube platform is open for advertisent spots, managed by the professional hands of the Thousand Treasure Pavilion. The Thousand Treasure Pavilion guarantees that your product will receive more attention from your custors!"
Jian Ganglie began his passionate presentation, drawing all of the audience’s attention to him.
Many could not wait to buy this miraculous device. The heirs of the great factions and many sects could not wait to get their hands on it.
With the U-Phone 2’s function to contact the upper realm on demand, it was nothing short of miraculous. If they could access the advice of their ancestors regarding cultivation, it would improve the power of their sects and clans manyfold.
Besides, another use of the U-Phone was that they could ask their ancestors to tell them about higher grade cultivation thods from the upper realm. With this, the cultivation libraries of their sects or clans would gain new, high quality manuals for their disciples to cultivate.
Xin Hao’s patience finally reached its limit. He loudly declared,
"Enough with the theatrics. Sell it already! The Xin Clan orders 30,000 U-Phone 2!"
With Xin Hao starting the wave, another faction quickly followed.
"Heavenly Sword Sect orders 10,000!" Jian Heng stood up and placed the order.
