My Text-Based Cultivation Game

Wow, that's crazy?

Ling Yaotian looked at Su Muxue with a forced smile, "Fellow Daoist, are you trying to obstruct everyone's path to cultivation? What? Are you confident you can stop everyone present?"

"Hey, hey, hey, Ling Yaotian, don't drag me into this," Nangong Zi said first. "I'm not familiar with you."

You son of a bitch!

They clearly want to monopolize it, and you're even willing to give up such an important opportunity?

Is your relationship really that deep?

"Then you just stay here and watch, don't bother us!"

Nangong Zi waved his hand, "Ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones."

"What the hell?! Are you robbing me?!"

Faced with Ling Yaotian's outburst of insults, Nangong Zi crossed her arms and sneered, "Just tell me whether you'll give it to me or not."

"What benefit do you get from helping this woman? She clearly wants to monopolize this opportunity. Even if you help her, do you think she'll share it with you? Or are you deliberately targeting me?"

"That's where you're wrong."

"What?"

"Opportunity is not important to me, and you are not important to me either. It is important to me that you do not get the opportunity."

"You son of a bitch!"

"Stop talking nonsense, or I'll take action if you don't give it to me."

Ling Yaotian gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Here you go! But I don't have that many spirit stones right now. You can take this ten-thousand-year-old Blood Centipede Ginseng as payment."

As he spoke, Ling Yaotian used his spiritual power to wrap a jade box and tossed it to Nangong Zi. Nangong Zi opened it, looked inside, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Alright." Nangong Zi put the jade box into her storage bag. "Then good luck to you guys, I believe in you!"

Chao Lingyao raised an eyebrow, while Nangong Zi flew to the edge, adopting a detached, observer's posture.

"very good!"

Ling Yaotian breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it hurts to lose money, it's always a good thing to have one less competitor.

Nangong Zi is a genuine Golden Core cultivator; if you're careless, you could really be punched into a wall by him.

As for Nangong Zi, she is certainly not the kind of person who would betray her fellow disciples for resources. We body cultivators must prioritize loyalty and righteousness.

The main reason was that my junior sister told me to stay away, otherwise I might accidentally hurt myself.

That's what I meant...

Nangong Zi acted decisively, following her heart.

But no matter what, we have to trick that Ling Yaotian before we leave!

"Alright." Ling Yaotian, having regained his composure, shrugged and looked at Su Muxue. "Three against one, I think no one has any objections now, right?"

This time, neither Jiang Hongmei nor Chu Hongyan objected.

Not seizing an opportunity that is right in front of you is far more serious than an ordinary person seeing money and not picking it up!

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think? I feel you definitely can't manage alone..."

"Chirp!"

Seeing that the three had reached a consensus, Ling Yaotian wanted to continue to use his power to intimidate others, but unexpectedly Su Muxue raised her hand and shot out a fire feather, which reached Ling Yaotian's brow in an instant, a distance of a hundred meters.

"!!!"

"boom!"

A burst of sparks exploded in the air, like a missile exploding, and flames completely enveloped Ling Yaotian.

"Hahaha! Fellow Daoist is really impatient."

Unrestrained laughter came from the flames, and blue-glowing divination sticks tore through the flames, revealing Ling Yaotian's figure.

The surging spiritual energy billowed his robes, and his pupils shone with a shimmering blue light. Facing the several more fire feathers shot by Su Muxue, he changed the hand seals, and several red divination sticks were separated from the 108 divination sticks and shot out.

"This is... an ominous sign!"

Surprisingly, these red divination sticks did not collide violently with the fire feather, but instead merged directly into it. The fire feather continued its momentum and shot straight towards Ling Yaotian.

However, just as they were about to reach Ling Yaotian, the fiery feathers inexplicably changed direction and flew past Ling Yaotian's cheek.

"boom!"

Flames exploded behind Ling Yaotian, and the surging air currents made his clothes flutter wildly, which actually made him look somewhat dashing.

It's a bit like Tony Stark not looking back at the explosion in the first Iron Man movie.

"What a pity, fellow Daoist, your luck isn't so good; your spells have all flown away." Ling Yaotian chuckled, taking a divination slip from the ones floating beside him. "But today, I'm extremely fortunate!"

"Buzz!"

The blue light of the divination stick at Ling Yaotian's fingertip intensified, and as the divination stick merged into Ling Yaotian's body, the spiritual energy fluctuations it emitted were even greater than before.

Su Muxue glanced at him coldly. Fighting these charlatans was troublesome. These cultivators who specialized in cultivating the Dao of Destiny and Cause and Effect used increasingly bizarre and disgusting methods.

Moreover, even if you can defeat them, various methods such as karmic curses can continue to nauseate you like a persistent affliction.

She took out an array plate, and eighty-one red array flags filed out of her storage bag. Under Su Muxue's command, the array plate unfolded into an array diagram like a 3D projection. Each array flag was inserted into a position on the array diagram, and under the guidance of spiritual power, it gradually bloomed with golden-red light.

"Don't let her complete the formation!"

Even without Ling Yaotian's reminder, this isn't a turn-based game. Anyone with a brain wouldn't just sit back and wait for the opponent to prepare before attacking.

Chu Hongyan unleashed a sword strike, followed closely by Jiang Hongmei's fire dragon.

Ling Yaotian shot out a stream of blood essence, which landed on a blood-red "Great Misfortune" divination slip, while he absorbed a golden "Great Fortune" slip into himself.

As spiritual energy surged, the "Great Misfortune" divination slip spun and magnified, eventually transforming into a giant blood sword.

"go!"

The three attacked with wide, sweeping movements, showing no concern that Su Muxue would dodge.

Or rather, they'd love for her to hide, because if she did, the formation wouldn't be able to take shape!

The formation cannot be dismantled; we can only withstand this onslaught.

It was time for cultivators to demonstrate their financial resources.

Whoever has more magical treasures, stronger spells, and more diverse methods will win this round.

Su Muxue frowned slightly. A jade pendant at her waist shattered, and a small golden phoenix flew out and landed in Su Muxue's hand.

With a sudden squeeze! Golden flames burst forth, transforming into a longbow made of flames. Su Muxue drew the bow, her spiritual energy gathering at her fingertips...

"Whoosh!"

A golden arrow formed from solidified energy shot out suddenly, so fast that it turned into a golden line in the air, shattering the sword energy and the ferocious fire dragon with unstoppable force!

Then, undeterred, it charged straight at the giant blood sword...

No! Just as it was about to reach the blood sword, the golden thread began to sway left and right, and it looked like it was about to shoot off elsewhere as before. Su Muxue suddenly changed her hand seal, and the golden thread suddenly exploded. The surging flames opened their blood-red maws and swallowed the blood sword. The scorching temperature seemed to melt the blood sword.

It is true that the blood sword must be melted, but this "melting" is different from melting metal in the mortal world. It is more like dissolving it in the sense of a law.

Ling Yaotian keenly sensed that something was wrong; this was not the power that a Golden Core cultivator should be able to control!

"This guy's not right! Don't hold back!"

Is this even correct?

The opponent, a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, had his killing moves broken by three late-stage Golden Core cultivators in a single move. How could that be?

Flames burst from Jiang Hongmei's pupils as she summoned a bright red drum embroidered with a Kui ox. Holding two drumsticks with ox heads carved on their tips, she slammed them down onto the drumhead.

"Thump!"

The thunderous sound shook people's minds, and a one-legged fire bull leaped out, bellowing loudly as it was about to stomp down on Su Muxue.

very good!

Ling Yaotian naturally recognized this magic weapon; it was Jiang Hongmei's most treasured possession!

As expected of an ally, this attack will definitely...

"boom!"

Just as the bull's hoof was about to strike, the one-legged fire bull suddenly exploded like fireworks.

But... it just exploded. Not to mention hurting Su Muxue, the furthest point affected by the blast wave was still hundreds of meters away from her!

Eh?

This doesn't make sense, does it?

Where did the attack go?

The guy on the other side didn't generate any new spiritual energy fluctuations, so how did he manage to neutralize the attack?

This tactic... has the opponent become this sophisticated?

wrong!

Ling Yaotian suddenly realized something was wrong. He turned his head and saw that Jiang Hongmei had already turned into a streak of light and fled into the distance!

I'm so awesome! What happened to our allies?!

Jiang Hongmei, who had already fled, glanced at Ling Yaotian from afar. "Alliance my ass! I've already gained so much in the Tianqiong Secret Realm. Why do I have to get involved in this mess?"

This opportunity, which suddenly appeared without any prior knowledge, is neither good nor bad.

Not to mention there's this guy who's got the skills and connections to protect you.

To really fight head-on is just plain stupid.

It's not even a little bit.

You give Luda!
