Chapter 228: Captured by a Demonic Cultivator
【Sect Channel】
【Zhou Nüzi: So many newcomers today, welcome, everyone! 】
【Gu Yunxi: You’re just posting here, they can only watch and can’t speak. Who has points… 】
【Lin Yuyu: Buying materials, buying all sorts of spirit materials. MMM me if it’s below market price! 】
【Zhen Weida: Big Shot leading a team, recruiting Life Players interested in Artifact Refining. Newbies interested, please PM me. If you don’t have points, come find me at the Wang’an County Office. Of course, if you choose another Sect, then I can’t help for now! 】
【Su Daqiang: Oh, Weida’s back? How did the blind date go? 】
【Honghuang: Did you slaughter the village? 】
【Zhen Weida: …Don’t even mention it. Wasted a few days and regretted it so much. My childhood friend went with me, she didn’t fancy me, she fancied my childhood friend. 】
【Gu Yunxi: Condolences. 】
【Yang Meimei: Condolences. 】
【Zhou Nüzi: Condolences. 】
【Honghuang: May your childhood friend’s entire family be executed! 】
【Zhen Weida: You all can go eat shit. I didn’t want to date anyway. If I dated, how would I have time to play the game? The game is definitely more important. No one can stop my Cultivation journey! 】
【Zhou Nüzi: That’s true. 】
【Daoist Priest: True +1. 】
…
The newcomers who entered were looking around Wang’an County everywhere, while also staring intently at the Sect Channel.
The players who had just entered were still expressing their shock at this game, until the System issued the Spiritual Root Pill. After taking the pill and logging off, they finally calmed down a bit.
Most of these players had watched Han Tian’s beginner guide and knew what to do.
Only a small portion of players hadn’t watched the online guides.
While the new players were excited, the old players also had different gains.
It was already very late. Chen Miaomiao logged off and sat up from her Luxury Pod. After spacing out for a while, she looked at the time.
Two in the morning.
In the past, this would absolutely be sleep time. No matter who it was, they would say that staying up late at this hour was bad.
But she couldn’t sleep well anymore.
The deeper she delved into this game, the more she felt her Body was undergoing changes.
She felt her spirit was getting better and better.
It was just that unbelievable.
Even though she spent most of her time in the game, she logged off later and later each day, yet she felt more and more exhilarated.
But if she lay in bed to rest, she would fall asleep very quickly.
It was as if her subconscious was telling her that she should still be sleeping.
Because humans must sleep.
Wearing the VR glasses for a long time left noticeable indentations on her nose, but they would recover quickly.
Looking at the time, Chen Miaomiao suddenly felt hungry.
This was the opposite of the game.
In the game, after they started Cultivation, they didn’t really need to eat Food; it was purely out of enjoyment.
But in reality, she felt her appetite was growing bigger and bigger.
She would absolutely never have eaten a midnight snack before.
But now, whenever she logged off late at night, she would always want to eat something.
She also ate more during the day than before.
She worried if her Body was undergoing some negative changes, especially since she was playing the game every day.
She had also gone to the hospital for an Inspection. The results were very good. She used to have low blood sugar, but it hadn’t acted up in the past few months.
Even when she sometimes played day and night, forgetting to eat breakfast.
Only then did she feel at ease.
She loved to eat more than before, so it was perfect to eat something different and satisfy her Craving for food.
It would take a while for the takeout to arrive this late at night. Chen Miaomiao got up and looked around the refrigerator.
In the end, she decided to Cook Noodles to eat.
While cooking the noodles, there was a small window in her kitchen.
A mosquito flew in through the window. The small mosquito flew up and down, hovering around the steaming pot.
Chen Miaomiao, afraid the mosquito would fly into the pot and affect her noodles, casually picked up her Chopsticks to shoo it away.
But for some reason, as she focused on the mosquito, she suddenly felt its movements were very slow.
So her hand moved faster than her brain. With a pinch of her chopsticks, she steadily caught the mosquito flying in mid-air.
The mosquito died on the spot, and after this action, Chen Miaomiao was stunned, only realizing what had happened afterward.
After a while, she took the chopsticks to disinfect and wash them, then got a new pair. She muttered, “Strange, why did my reaction become so fast? Or is it…”
She always thought more than others.
She thought of something astonishing.
Could playing the game for a long time really affect reality?
After all, this game had always given players the feeling of being unrealistically real.
Not like a Game world at all.
Thinking of this, Chen Miaomiao suddenly raised her hand and pointed at a flower pot by the window. In the pot was a cluster of small purple-white flowers, which she had picked from the roadside in a rural Place.
Just like she would do in the game.
She silently recited the Wood Element growth Incantation. Like a Large Fireball, it was a very common basic Spiritual Energy Incantation. In the game, it would at most grow some short green plants.
But the flower pot remained unresponsive.
Chen Miaomiao recited it several times, but the flower pot still showed no reaction.
After a while, Chen Miaomiao sighed and smiled, “I’m truly incredibly foolish.”
If others saw this, they would probably think she had gone mad.
Playing a game and suffering Cultivation Deviation.
The noodles in the pot were boiling. She shook her head and turned to scoop out her noodles.
As she turned around, she didn’t notice in the flower pot that a part of the small flowers, which had become somewhat wilted, had a thin, usually almost unnoticeable, drooping green Roots and stems, suddenly straightened up a part of itself.
It was as if it had regained its vitality.
Meanwhile, in the game, a Player who chose Tai Xue Sect, after logging in as quickly as possible, encountered the unluckiest event in the entire game’s history.
He was captured.
Yes, he was captured by a Demonic Cultivator.
Tai Xue Sect’s terrain was complex. This Player’s spawn location was some distance from the Tai Xue Sect Sect City, precisely in a position that wouldn’t attract the attention of the Sect City Supervisor.
He found a place to hide and managed to hold on until his Spiritual Root was opened.
This Player’s ID was 【Liu Bo】.
But as soon as he logged in, before he could even laugh out loud.
He was grabbed by a Cultivator and brought before him.
The Cultivator’s eyes were emerald green, but his pupils were sharp and narrow, clearly not human eyes.
His entire face was also slightly greenish.
Players who chose Tai Xue Sect were all courageous, but no matter how courageous they were, they didn’t expect to be captured on the first day.
The Demonic Cultivator, upon seeing him, was initially excited, then after carefully looking at the Player, a flash of pity suddenly crossed his eyes.
“You’re as ugly as I am. I suppose they won’t tolerate you either? Humans are the most hypocritical. No wonder you’re still at the Qi Condensation Stage at such an old age…”
Liu Bo: ?
Brother, you’re really presumptuous!
Speaking of which, Liu Bo was also a bit lucky. Song Jiulai refined Puppets, and there was a distinction between generally ugly and the ugliest.
He had picked the ugliest Puppet.
The key was that he was too excited and rushed to enter the game without Character Creation. Because he had watched Han Tian’s Live Broadcast, he knew that Players would have a chance to re-do Character Creation later on （ with Points to exchange for new Materials for Puppets ）, so he didn’t care about his appearance at all.
Before Liu Bo could speak, the Demonic Cultivator suddenly sensed something, his expression changed, and he grabbed Liu Bo and ran.
His speed was like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from his original spot.
Liu Bo was a bit anxious at this moment: “System, what should I do in this situation?”
System: “Mix it with scrambled eggs.”
Liu Bo: “…”
Please take leave on 3.17. There are some family matters, so updates will be fewer these two days. I will make up for it later. I apologize for the inconsistent updates for the past two months; it was because I was busy during the New Year, and once I got busy, I became lazy, and then I didn’t want to write and was afraid to explain or read comments. Now I think I need to clarify. The missed updates are my responsibility. I apologize to the readers who were looking forward to it. Updates will be stable now, and I will take leave if something comes up. The Demon Sect has not much content left, and the additions will lead to its quick conclusion. I am considering whether to write some ancient side stories, but if everyone is not interested, I won’t write anything extra. Cultivation will be very long, so updates can be increased continuously.
