Chapter 64 New Event Preview: The Sixty-Fourth Day of Game Making

"Three Thousand Guests of the Purple Cloud" is going to have an event.

After a month of fermentation, "Three Thousand Guests of the Purple Clouds" has become the top hit in the prehistoric world.

Whether you are a celestial being or a mortal, great or small, as long as you have some intelligence and spiritual power, you can log into this game and seek your own path to heaven.

For great cultivators, it is a platform to discuss the Great Dao with like-minded fellow cultivators; for lesser cultivators, whose cultivation is already difficult, it is the only way for them to seek the path to heaven.

A few low-level cultivators actually won the favor of the immortals and were taken in as disciples because they drew the card and comprehended the second layer of Dao meaning contained in the card.

The game became even more popular overnight. Who wouldn't enjoy the benefits of playing a fun game, and even have the chance to change their destiny?

Therefore, when the brand-new PV "The Chaos of the Three Clans" was released, it immediately became a hot topic.

First, there is a grand narrative scene, with dragons, phoenixes, and qilin appearing together on the chaotic prehistoric continent, thus beginning an ancient history book from ten thousand years ago.

The PV only touched on the subject briefly, offering a few comments on the three races of dragon, phoenix, and qilin before ending the story, leaving only the question, "If you were given the choice, could you change the fate of the primordial land?"

Everyone knew perfectly well that this was clearly another great calamity involving dragons and phoenixes in the game. The screen was flooded with comments ranging from angry accusations and anticipation of what would happen next, to fantasies of change, and reminiscing about the past.

However, they quickly lost interest in continuing the conversation, because the PV transitioned from its original vast and magnificent visuals to the appearance of Kong Xuan, a character everyone recognized.

Since the day the little ginseng consulted him and determined the direction of future activities, while helping Kong Xuan and Da Peng on weekdays, he also urged Kong Que to continue improving in the game, striving to develop more in-depth and popular live streams.

So Kong Xuan led Dapeng to play the game as ordered, teaching as the main storyline progressed, from the initial entry into the Dao and enlightenment to physical and mental training, and how to walk the righteous path and cultivate to become an Earth Immortal.

Immediately, a large group of spirit beasts, who had no way to seek the Dao and were starving for food, rushed over, waiting for Kong Xuan to play games while giving them a simple, easy-to-understand, and gradual cultivation lesson.

Topics about Kong Xuan on the forum are always trending. In the video clips, every lesson about Kong Xuan has been carefully compiled and repeatedly reviewed by someone.

It's not that others haven't followed Kong Xuan's example in giving lectures. But their lectures are often spontaneous, going wherever their thoughts lead them, simply sharing their understanding of the Dao, and only a small number of destined people can comprehend them.

Besides, who treats enjoyment like a task, giving a lecture every day with different content? Giving a lecture occasionally is called doing what you want, but giving lectures every day is like clocking in for work. Everyone here is a carefree cultivator from the primordial world; who has the time to stick to a specific time to pass a level and give a lecture?

Thus, after the fierce competition, only those with a solid foundation in cultivation theory remained. And because of their passion for cultivation, the peacock, who diligently attended classes every day, was among the last to survive.

These past few days of lectures have not only advanced Kong Xuan's title of "Teacher," but the merits and rewards he has received for spreading morality and awakening his spiritual wisdom have also enabled him to achieve a breakthrough, turning his entire bird a brilliant red. When it transforms into its original form and soars across the sky, it is as magnificent as the sunrise.

Little Ginseng knew, of course, that the Dragon and Phoenix Calamity event would cause a huge controversy. So he put Kong Xuan after him to keep things under control and announce other major news.

Sure enough, once Kong Xuan appeared, everyone's attention shifted to messages seeking knowledge, asking questions, and even paying homage to Master Kong Xuan.

Kong Xuan had a stern face that looked only six or seven years old, but his long-standing reputation as a lecturer made everyone watching the video wary of him.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Kong Xuan officially announced: "There are multiple options for this event, so feel free to choose as you like. Participants can receive a photo of themselves with the 'Kong Xuan Basic Cultivation Course,' or exchange tokens for a photo of themselves with the 'Guiding the White Lotus's Discourse on Taoism. As for other rewards available for exchange, they are all displayed on the screen for your information."

Kong Xuan + teaching, that's a winning combination. Hearing that Teacher Kong Xuan had a new course, many spirit beasts immediately dropped what they were doing and rushed into the game.

I was even more excited when I saw that there was another activity where I could receive a free photo of myself with "The White Lotus's Discourse on Taoism" after completing it.

Although Jieyin usually only appears in the West, who in the prehistoric world doesn't know that Jieyin is a famous Golden Immortal of the Great Luo, the fifth disciple of the Dao Ancestor, and even his card art ranks fifth on the list, with card skills all themed around imparting knowledge and teaching skills.

One listen and you know he's a powerful cultivator skilled in preaching. Wouldn't everyone be excited to have the chance to listen to such a cultivator's sermon for free?

Although the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity was devastating, it occurred tens of thousands of years ago. Compared to the powerful cultivators, these weak cultivators below have been replaced by countless generations, and have long since become legends passed down by word of mouth.

With the legend of re-entering the fray and the readily available generous rewards, is there even a question of whose side to support?

The voices that were originally criticizing the Dragon and Phoenix Calamity were drowned out by the wave of participation in the event.

Guang Chengzi was furious when he saw that his message was immediately buried by a dense flood of messages anticipating the new event.

He could only scoff, "Nonsense." Then, with a stern face, he continued to look at the next list of awards.

As for getting angry and finding these people, or refusing to play the game, those are unrealistic ideas. While they should still be scolded, they shouldn't miss out on any of the rewards.

It's clear that this event is quite generous, not only offering 40 free draws but also highlighting limited-time character rate-up events that increase the drop rate. As for other miscellaneous training resources and upgrade items, there are countless others.

The video also revealed a number of new gameplay features at the end, most of which were hidden in the mist, except for one which was prominently displayed: the "Discussion on the Dao at Buzhou Mountain," which even thoughtfully provided titles such as "Early Access" and "Once a Day."

The notes then list the rewards for the top-ranked participants after the event officially opens, with the first-place winner receiving 5,000 spirit stones per month, which translates to ten draws per month.

The Western Bodhisattvas, Jieyin and Zhunti, saw that they had many more opportunities to draw lots than before, and were so happy that they kept chanting Amitabha Buddha.

"It seems that Yuan Yi really values ​​you and your fellow disciples. Not only did he send his eldest disciple, but he also listened to all our thoughts." Zhunti smiled at this moment. With so many free draws to be obtained in the future, plus the two extremely familiar strokes of primordial purple energy drawn in that mysterious pool, all of this was for the benefit of his fellow disciples.

He could feel that his connection with the Primordial Purple Qi was growing stronger.

Zhunti: "Senior brother is truly skilled. I almost made enemies with Fellow Daoist Yuanyi before, but now that you have taken the initiative to participate in the event, you can not only broaden the scope of our Western Dharma, but also let Fellow Daoist see our sincerity."

Friendships are always reciprocal. Seeing the PV message immediately after making the effort made Zhunti confident that the matter of almost forcibly taking Kong Xuan as a disciple was now completely forgotten.

After all, he only admired Yuan Yi's two disciples in private and wanted to take them on as disciples. He didn't actually use his cultivation to attack Kong Xuan Dapeng; at most, he only spoke a little unfriendly.

Would Yuan Yi really hold a grudge against his brothers for the sake of two disciples who haven't yet reached their full potential? Besides, his senior brother has already taken the initiative to make amends, so there's no need to worry about this now. He can just focus on the game.

Jieyin agreed, saying, "We should prepare some gifts and have our disciples go to Wuzhuang Temple to apologize to Fellow Daoist Yuanyi. After all, there are still karmic debts to be repaid, and we shouldn't cause any unnecessary trouble."

Besides, although the reason for this matter is somewhat difficult to state, having this excuse would allow for a legitimate way to deal with Wuzhuang Temple. This back-and-forth would naturally establish some connections, making it easier to scheme for anything in the future.

This matter was planned as soon as it left Zixiao Palace, but I was too busy with the game these past few months to make arrangements. Now the time is just right.

Jieyin sat upright on the futon, still with that stern and rigid Buddha demeanor. Compared to the radiant Zhunti beside him, it was impossible to tell that he was the one in charge of spreading Buddhism in the West.

As he listened to his junior brother calculating the number of draws he would receive in the future, his eyes drooped slightly, and a faint smile played on his lips: "Amitabha."

Unlike Zhunti, who was calculating the number of draws, more people focused their attention on the newly released "Discussion on the Dao at Buzhou Mountain".

"Battle against other players using the cards you own? One battle per day during the trial period." Tongtian scratched his head, letting out a heartfelt sigh: "Why can't I just play myself?!"

Here, I have to mention the gacha system of "Three Thousand Guests in the Purple Sky".

Unlike regular card draws that rely entirely on probability and luck, drawing cards in the Primordial World truly depends on fate.

The path you cultivate is similar to mine, and we have a predestined master-disciple/pathetic partner/close friend relationship. In such cases, it is often easier to draw the corresponding card.

Of course, the bond between oneself and oneself is the deepest, so most people's first main cards are usually their own cards.

Apart from Tongtian and Yuanshi.

Perhaps the initial ten-pull of gold cards exhausted the affinity between Yuan Shi and the card pool, and afterwards Yuan Shi only drew some mediocre cards, and his own gold card was nowhere to be found.

Tongtian's situation is even more tragic. Since entering the main storyline, he has never produced a single gold card. To this day, the main cards he has are still Xuan-rank cards, and he is the one who bears the main responsibility for output in every mission.

Sometimes when he was doing missions with Yuanshi, he felt that the Tongtian scroll in Yuanshi's hand should have been more destined for him, but he just chose the wrong person by a twist of fate.

Yuanshi must have felt the same way, because he always had to glare at himself every time he used the Tongtian Card.

Later, after his elder brother released his own card, Yuanshi's gaze towards him became increasingly hostile.

Tongtian stroked his chin, feeling that Yuanshi was becoming increasingly unpredictable. He was the one who had previously complained about his own card art, but later he was also the one who always used the [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation] in every quest, and his best-leveled card art was also the [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation].

Despite having such a great card design, Primordial Lord complains about himself while using it; it's truly absurd.

Tongtian slammed his fist on the table. After seeing that the Dao Discussion gameplay was open once a day, his first thought was to go and try it out with Yuanshi.

But thinking about the main cards in their hands and the rule that they couldn't personally participate in the battle, Tongtian felt troubled for the first time because he was too strong.

"The [Buzhou Mountain Dao Discussion] is about to open, give me a card that can go toe-to-toe with the [Zhuxian Sword Formation]." Tongtian threw down a ten-pull without any expectations.

-----------------------

Author's Note: Why did they choose the Primordial Era's "The Way of Heaven"? It's so hard to guess! [doge emoji]

Where are the main Heavenly Rank players who should be in Tongtian? Why are the cards with better fate in other people's hands? [doge]

There's no other way but to reluctantly accept the fate (system rules) for one of the cards with the "Heaven's Way" designation.

It just goes to show that you have to pay for the mistakes you made. [Smiling face]
