He ignored the little bee and instead squatted down and grabbed a handful of dirt.
He picked up the clod of earth and crushed it.
Then he looked down at his body, and it was exactly the same as his real body!
Sanren was shocked!
Broadcasters are generally very good at talking to themselves.
Sanren muttered a bunch of things under his breath.
He only put his hand on the stone after the little bee repeated the words three times.
In the game "Slaying the Heavens", there are two deities named Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi. Please remember them at all times.
Everything that follows is a gift from the two gods to you.
Your elemental attribute is Wood.
Spiritual root strength 5.
Comprehension 7.
Root bone 4.
Suitable profession: Planter.
Please claim the basic weapon and basic cultivation technique given to you by the deities Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi.
Choose a name for yourself!
May you soon pass through the beginner village and officially enter the Real Treasure Continent.
Sanren entered his name: "Xiaoyao Sanren".
The next second, a long sword appeared in his hand, along with a robe and a jade piece.
The little bee left behind a single sentence and then disappeared.
"Place the jade slip on your forehead to read its contents. Now, follow the instructions and explore on your own!"
After the little bee disappeared, Sanren's game board officially appeared.
He opened the status bar, and his face and figure were prominently displayed on it.
The taskbar is also displayed on the left side of the game menu.
[New Player Quests]
To advance to the Qi Refining stage as soon as possible, please complete 100 beginner tasks.
The first task: Read the contents of the jade slip and learn the cultivation technique.
The second task: Swing the sword 1000 times according to the technique to lay a solid foundation.
The third task: Circulate the cultivation technique and feel the presence of spiritual energy within the dantian.
...
Sanren said with delight:
"It's so realistic! This game is so realistic! There really are a hundred missions!"
And this game is challenging! You have to complete a hundred quests to leave the starting village, wow! I love it!
**
Outside of the game.
On Earth.
Most game streamers think this game is challenging and plan to give it a try.
The audience members shook their heads and sighed.
"I don't have time to play, I have to go to school/work. I'll play during my vacation."
"The beginner quests are too long; only game streamers have time to play them."
"You play, streamer. I'll just watch. Let's see what the area outside the newbie village looks like."
The streamer experiences the real world, but what is displayed on the live stream screen is a 2.5D game.
The graphics of the 2.5D game are like a streamer controlling a game character to walk, with the character's shadow appearing on the ground, and that's about it.
The game does not allow you to change the perspective. Players are standing high in the sky, like the sun, and can only see the back of the characters, not even their faces.
Therefore, the unremarkable live stream footage did not attract any attention.
But the streamers were having a blast.
Sanren completed three tasks in a row before quitting the game.
He returned to the live stream, glanced at his recording, and shared his thoughts on the game.
"If you have time, you can try it out yourself. This is a groundbreaking game!"
The experience of playing it yourself is completely different from watching a live stream; the live stream's display is inaccurate.
Sanren often sits while livestreaming, and his health is somewhat poor.
Perhaps because he had been lying down all day, he was still full of energy in the evening.
After the broadcast ended, he took his phone and chatted in the live streamer group.
This group of streamers consists of top streamers on StarNet.
People play all sorts of games.
They chattered excitedly about their attributes, their professions, and their weapons.
Some people's weapon is a fan, some people's is a guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument), there are all sorts of weapons.
In the game, they are all in a place called the Celestial Fox Territory.
Sanren said in the group:
"I looked at a hundred beginner tasks."
The tenth task requires us to cultivate Qi into our bodies.
After completing the 30 quests in the Star Pivot Immortal Fox Territory, there are still the Snake Clan, Qilin Clan, Flood Dragon Clan, Azure Phoenix Clan, and so on.
We need to travel all over the demon realm before we can officially finish the beginner village.
"Are any hardcore gamers here? Hurry up and grind out a quick walkthrough!"
Just then, his private chat suddenly went off.
A streamer he often played with suddenly said: "You're a planter? I'm an alchemist. Let's work together. You help me grow some things, and I'll refine the pills. We'll split the pills 50/50 and eat them together, how about it?"
Sanren: Is there a trading system in the game? I looked around and couldn't even find a way to recharge.
Host: There's a trading system where you can barter or exchange goods for real money in China. There's just a 10% transaction fee.
The two hit it off immediately; they could refine pills, and consuming them would accelerate their cultivation.
Soon, small trading groups that bartered goods were established in the game.
Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi have been keeping a close eye on the game's developments.
The game "Slaying the Heavens" is a true cultivation game, so it's not very fun to play and can even be a bit boring.
On the first day the game launched, a large number of players registered.
But a week later, only three types of people were playing the game.
The first type is the ancient martial arts cultivators led by Li Yan, who diligently practiced in the game and became more and more energetic. They keenly noticed the changes in their bodies.
The second type is game enthusiasts and game streamers. One type plays games to kill time, while the other plays games to make money, so they tend to get quite immersed in any game they play.
The third type is people with a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Once they start doing anything, they have to finish it, at least until they leave the beginner's village.
Currently, there are only 5 million players online in the game every day, of which 60,000 are ancient martial arts practitioners and 4.9 million are military and police personnel.
These people were assigned to the Qilin Clan by Zhao Ziyi, and were trained together by the Qilin Ancestor, the Flood Dragon Ancestor, and the Snake Ancestor.
With powerful beings in the Integration Stage personally instructing them, their strength increased rapidly.
There are only about 40,000 real players, who are still doing quests with the Star Nexus Fairy Fox Clan.
Song Chen stared longingly at Zhao Ziyi:
"Ziyi, is there any other way? This number of people is completely insufficient."
Zhao Ziyi looked at the data on the monitor and nodded:
"Of course there is, but we have to wait another 7 days. There's too little time now to create a significant gap."
Seven days later.
Game streamers, led by Sanren, have successively broken through to the Qi Refining stage.
When Sanren broke through, he felt a light, floating sensation all over his body, which was very comfortable.
But when he quit the game and took off his helmet, he found that his hands had turned black.
A word popped into the minds of these game streamers.
Cleansing the meridians and marrow!
A breakthrough in the game, followed by a complete transformation in real life?
Holy crap!
This game is pretty good!
The streamers started discussing it in the group chat, subtly mentioning the changes in their bodies.
"This guy has really changed."
The streamer, who had already mastered Qi cultivation, immediately understood the meaning of this sentence.
Those who haven't made a breakthrough are still a bit confused.
