Chapter 39

This world was similar to the modern world that Gu Bai lived in, but there was one difference. The game technology here was much more advanced.

Compared to the web-based games he played before, the games here had entered the real simulation stage. The general gameplay was similar to the computer games of the past.

However, with the advanced game helmet, the player's senses would be completely different. They would feel as if they were in the real world.

"Cultivation Records" was a very popular online game. The content was similar to its name. It was a mortal cultivation game.

Just like in the novel, the game was divided into Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Soul Formation, Void, Combination, and Mahayana.

Because of the game helmet's simulation, the game players were very satisfied. They could even feel lightning strikes every time they leveled up. The real senses of exploring various secret realms were also very addictive.

"Cultivation Records" was an adaptation of the novel. There were a total of three races in the game: humans, demons, and monsters.

The original owner chose a female human character with the nickname "Shangguan Yu". It was very poetic. However, it was different from the beautiful and cold nickname. The character he chose looked very hot and beautiful …

Well, Gu Bai had to admit that the original owner had no other intentions other than to hook up with Tang Linyi. Although he was speechless, he decided to continue using the game character that the original owner created to respect the original owner.

It was summer vacation now. The original owner had just entered university, so he had plenty of time. If it was in the past, he would choose to travel around the world. However, this time, in order to be able to get close to Tang Linyi, he didn't go anywhere and stayed at home playing games all day.

Since the original owner's grievances were derived from the game to the real world, Gu Bai decided to start the mission from the game.

After getting up, Gu Bai told the nanny not to disturb him. He lay back on the bed, put on the helmet, and entered the game.

Clear music sounded in his head, and his vision turned black. When he opened his eyes again, he was in a beautifully decorated cave.

The whole scene, whether it was the walls of the cave, the moonstone, the hot spring, or the fragrance in the air, it was very real. It didn't look like a game world at all.

It was the first time Gu Bai came into contact with such a realistic game. It was very novel.

It was no wonder that this game had only been released for a year, but it had already taken the entire world by storm. The company had also become the world's top technology company. This technology was definitely a leap in technology!

This cave was the original owner's character's cave. It could be carried around and had a strong defense. Most novice characters couldn't have such a cave when they first entered the game. Most of them were straw huts that the original owner bought with his own money.

Before he was hated by Tang Dahai, the original owner was very popular at home. Tang Dahai gave him a lot of pocket money every month.

At least tens of thousands, at most hundreds of thousands. It was more than the pocket money given to his mother. It can be seen how much Tang Dahai doted on him. If there were no later events, the life of the original owner could be said to be very comfortable. That's why he was so unwilling after death.

Gu Bai leisurely looked around the cave. After satisfying his curiosity, he finally logged out of the game. He did not plan to grind levels like everyone else. Instead, he planned to use money to hire people to help him level up.

For others, this kind of game might be addictive. But for him, at most, he would play it out of curiosity. He would not be addicted to it.

Next, apart from occasionally entering the game to familiarize himself with the game, Gu Bai chose a low-level secret manual suitable for modern cultivation from the secret manuals in his mind.

In addition to this mission in the game, he also had to deal with many dangers in real life. In order to not have any accidents, he needed to have a certain level of self-protection.

A month quickly passed.

Because he spent a lot of money and found people to help him level up, Gu Bai's character quickly leveled up and reached the Golden Core level. The Alchemy skill was also lit up.

According to the original plot, once the Alchemy skill was lit up, Tang Zi Hao would run to join Tang Linyi's game guild to be a nanny.

But this time, Gu Bai did not plan to do so. In real life, he did not let Tang Linyi know who his character was. This was because the original owner's true identity was revealed by Tang Linyi.

The original owner's wish did not ask Tang Linyi to fall in love with him. He already had enough enemies, so Gu Bai temporarily put him to the back of his mind.

…

On this day, after finishing his cultivation in real life, Gu Bai went back to his room after eating. He put on his helmet and entered the game again. He found that his view had turned gray.

He did not log out of the game when he left just now. This area was a safe zone for accepting quests. Usually, people would not initiate attacks before leaving the safe zone. So, he chose to stay in the AFK state.

However, now that his view had turned gray, it was obvious that someone had violated the rules and killed him when he was not online. Moreover, the murderer had not left yet. They were standing next to his dead character and discussing happily.

"Wow, she dropped so many good equipment. Looking at her cultivation base, she couldn't have picked them up by herself. She must have bought them. This girl is so rich. Let's pick them up quickly!"

"Isn't that a little inappropriate?

You can't kill people in the safe zone … "

"Who cares? There's no one around anyway. This person was AFK just now. Let's pick up the equipment and leave. Who knows it's us? Xianxun, this is just a game. We can't even afford such good equipment for a month …"

"You have a point. Hehe …"

The two characters were human characters with very innocent appearances. One was dressed in green while the other was dressed in purple. The nicknames' Beautiful Green Wasteland 'and' Fairy Ning Bo 'were flashing above their heads respectively.

Gu Bai was furious that someone had violated the rules and killed his character. However, he laughed when he saw their nicknames.

As the old saying goes, enemies always meet. He had not even gone to find Song Xianxun to settle the score with the original owner of this body, and this person had already provoked him. Since that was the case, he had to teach him a lesson first!

After making up his mind, Gu Bai immediately used the Resurrection Pill to revive himself. The Resurrection Pill was extremely expensive, costing 10,000 Spiritual Stones per pill. In the real world, it would cost 100 RMB per pill. Ordinary players would rarely use it because the Resurrection Pill would automatically revive themselves within the safe zone.

The two were happily picking up the equipment that he dropped. They did not even notice that he had revived. Gu Bai got up and whipped his weapon at the two of them.

A notification sounded in the game: You have killed Beautiful Green Wasteland!

You have killed Fairy Ning Bo!

After killing the two of them, Gu Bai walked over to pick up the equipment that he dropped. He also picked up the items that the two of them had dropped. The two of them panicked.

[Human] Beautiful Green Wasteland: Hey, give us back our stuff!

You can't kill people in the safe zone!

[Human] Fairy Ningbo: That's right. Hurry up and give it to us …

Song Xianxun's character also shouted anxiously.

Gu Bai ignored them. Instead, he leisurely stood guard in front of the two corpses. He waited for them to revive on the spot, then he whipped them again without hesitation.

A notification sounded in the game again: You have killed Beautiful Green Wasteland!

You have killed Fairy Ning Bo!

[Human] Beautiful Green Wasteland: …

[Human] Fairy Ning Bo: …

The two of them did not expect Gu Bai to be so mean. He had purposely stayed by their side and killed them again. This time, they were not prepared. The two of them lost a layer of their cultivation. They were so angry that they shouted in the World Channel.

[World] Beautiful Green Wasteland: Shang Guanyu, you b * tch. You're shameless enough to kill people in the safe zone. Give us back our equipment!

Shouting in the world channel meant that all the players in the zone could see the red words that appeared in the game sky and hear them.

The attention of the players in the game was immediately attracted. The players who did not know the inside story began to discuss and despise Gu Bai for not following the rules and killing people in the safe zone.

Gu Bai was amused. He would not be as stupid as the original owner and wait to be wronged. Moreover, before completing a mission, he would more or less be influenced by the original owner's personality. Tang Zihao was an impulsive and simple person.

Therefore, he bought a set of speakers without hesitation and began to speak in the world channel.

[World] Shang Guanyu: Do I need a reason to kill you?

You wanted to kill me and drop my equipment while I was in the safe zone and offline. You deserved it!

Song Xianxun and her roommates would never admit to this. They immediately retorted.

[World] Fairy Ning Bo: You're slandering us!

We would never do such a shameless thing!

Gu Bai smiled. She was quite good at lying through her teeth. He continued to speak in the world channel.

[World] Shang Guanyu: Everyone knows who's slandering us!

Fellow cultivators in the world channel, listen up. From now on, whoever dares to kill Fairy Ning Bo and Lu Wu will lose a thousand spiritual stones per level of cultivation and ten thousand spiritual stones per level of cultivation as evidence!!!

[World] Shang Guanyu: Dares to kill Fairy Ning Bo and Lu Wu will lose a thousand spiritual stones per level of cultivation and ten thousand spiritual stones per level of cultivation as evidence!!!

Gu Bai repeated this several times in the world channel. Not only were the red words scrolling in the game sky, but all the players in the game also heard Gu Bai's killing order. It was hard not to notice.

The Tang family did not lack the money to play the game anyway. The feeling of spending money like this was great!

Instantly, the game world in this zone boiled over.

[Human] Fairy Drizzle: Killing order!

I haven't seen it in a long time!

[Human] Beautiful Fairy Eyebrows: Wow, wow, wow, a drop of one level of cultivation is a thousand spirit stones?

Ten thousand spiritual stones per level of cultivation?!!

Sister Tycoon, please take us in!

[Human] Witch of the Black Mountain: Who are Fairy Ning Bo and Lu Wu?

I'm going to get my reward!!

Song Xianxun was still a very ordinary character in the game. She did not become famous in the game because of Tang Zihao and Tang Linyi.

Not everyone who played the game was rich. There were not many people like Tang Zihao who spent money to play the game. It was easier to kill a character with a private bounty than to kill an old monster.

Therefore, once Gu Bai's killing order was sent out, the game world became lively. Everyone was looking for Song Xianxun's game account to kill her and get their reward.

By the time Song Xianxun and her roommate realized what was going on, they were killed and disconnected before they could even log out of the game.

Song Xianxun felt wronged and angry. She could only go offline temporarily. However, in the next few days, she and her roommates would be killed by players who wanted to get their reward as soon as they came online.

After they died, they would quickly go online in another location. Then, they would be killed again. After they died, they would go offline again. Then, they would go online again. Then, they would change locations and die again. They would be beaten up no matter where they went!!!

Although it was just a game character dying, with the helmet's realistic simulation, she felt something. Every time she died, she would be electrocuted and injured again.

After a few days, Song Xianxun was scared of being electrocuted. She did not dare to enter the game with the nickname 'Fairy Ning Bo' anymore. She could only change her account and identity temporarily.

She was furious, but there was nothing she could do. After all, the gaming helmet was newly bought. The cheaper ones cost a few thousand, while the more expensive ones ranged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. She had spent a few months of her living expenses to play the game. It would be a pity if she stopped playing the game just like that.

Gu Bai realized that no one sent him any pictures of Song Xianxun's character to ask for his reward. He did not care about her anymore. After all, he had plenty of time and opportunities to deal with this hypocritical b * tch.

In the plot, Master Zhongyuan was not satisfied. Besides wanting to vent his anger, he was actually very envious of Song Xianxun's fame in the game. He was not popular in real life, so he wanted to find satisfaction in the virtual world.

If he wanted to be satisfied in the game world, Master Zhongyuan naturally wanted to become a famous guru.

However, in a holographic online game like The Legend of a Cultivation, one could not become a guru just by spending money. Of course, one could level up by spending money, but to become a guru recognized by the game, one had to complete some hidden missions or kill a guru player.

Gu Bai did not want to kill a guru player. Guru players were all experts in the game. They were not easy to deal with.

Therefore, he could only obediently complete the hidden missions.
