My Text-Based Cultivation Game

A muscular man didn't step onto the floating cloud connecting the island and the arena. Instead, he leaped from the island and landed on the arena with a "boom".

But this burly man was holding a pair of Xuanhua axes. His size was comparable to the Hulk. He had bulging eyes, a beard and hair standing on end, and a menacing aura.

He's practically a combination of Zhang Fei and Cheng Yaojin.

He doesn't seem like a cultivator; he seems more like a military general.

"I am Lu Yanfei! I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and at the age of thirty-six, I mastered the art. I entered the Dao through martial arts and became a disciple of the Xuantian Sect. After more than twenty years of cultivation, I have finally reached the ninth level of Qi Refining and am about to establish my foundation!"

As soon as he stepped onto the stage, the burly man started shouting at the top of his lungs.

That's just a bit too much to say.

He even gave a self-introduction when he went on stage.

But any smart person could see that this burly man was quite shrewd.

This self-introduction wasn't for Yunyang and the outer disciples watching from the sidelines, but for the elders and inner disciples who were flying in the sky watching.

Simply put, this self-introduction is equivalent to a resume.

Take this opportunity to let the "judges" get to know me.

Those "judges" in the sky will definitely focus their attention on Yunyang, this genius, and by standing prominently opposite Yunyang, this "genius," I can certainly make those "judges" remember me.

Moreover, even if you lose to Yunyang, a being who can split the heavens with a single sword, it's not shameful.

On the contrary, if he can show his prowess in this battle, he might even attract the attention of some inner disciples.

This is a good idea, but not everyone dares to do it.

It was because of Yunyang's sword strike.

What if Yunyang really gets killed by a single sword strike?

In fact, many people suspect that Yunyang may not even be at the Qi Refining stage anymore.

However, Lu Yanfei felt that Yunyang's cultivation level could not possibly exceed Qi Refining. If it were, he would have been pulled away by the inner sect long ago, and it would be impossible for him to participate in the outer sect competition.

Suppressing one's cultivation level is just bullying.

But it's absolutely impossible for someone in the Qi Refining stage to unleash that Heaven-Opening Sword!

Therefore, Lu Yanfei speculated that Yunyang must have used some kind of one-time special method, which could not have been used in normal combat.

Yunyang's combat strength should still be within the range of someone at the ninth level of Qi Refining who could exchange one or two blows with him.

Of course, this is also a gamble. If you win, you'll attract attention among the many outer disciples; if you lose...

With so many elders and inner disciples of the Xuantian Sect watching, they shouldn't just stand by and watch me get cleaved in two by a sword, right?

I guess so...

But now that they were already on the stage, there was no turning back. Lu Yanfei gripped the Xuanhua Great Axe in his hand and shouted at Yunyang, "Junior Brother Yun! My strength is weak, and I only have the advantage of striking first. Please take this axe first!"

Excuse me!

After saying that, Lu Yanfei leaped high into the air and swung his axe at Yunyang.

This axe strike was powerful and heavy; an ordinary Qi Refining stage cultivator would find it difficult to withstand.

But it was difficult to dodge, because along with the axe blow came pressure from all sides.

This made it difficult to avoid the axe blow.

But for Yunyang, it was a different story.

Because he's about to brandish his sword!

Just after Lu Yanfei finished her self-introduction, Yunyang's game screen changed to a certain online martial arts battle royale game.

The game had great strategic gameplay, but player skill was somewhat dependent on frame rate and latency. Moreover, the official Sand Coin team was slow to lock the frame rate or add servers, and the operation team managed to turn this game, which had no competitors, into a near-death experience.

It's that game, "A Certain Calamity".

Incidentally, the game's skin aesthetics have declined significantly recently, with the newly released highest-quality skins being a complete mess.

However, the most basic gameplay is still pretty good.

Simply put, it's rock-paper-scissors: blue charged attack counters normal attack, vibrating attack counters blue charged attack, and normal attack counters vibrating attack.

The techniques for dodging and combos beyond this will not be elaborated upon further.

Upon seeing that this was the game, Yunyang skipped the tutorial entirely, as he was a veteran player of this game.

Yunyang is very confident about this game.

Of course, the mini-games that pop up from my cheat are still different from the original "A Certain Calamity". For example, Yunyang can now wield his sword even with his hands empty!

Watching the burly man leap high into the air and then bring his axe down, Yunyang smiled.

With that speed of charging up an attack, isn't it easy to catch it?

Shake the knife!

"when!"

Just as Xuanhua's great axe was about to fall on Yunyang's head, Yunyang slapped it away.

It was clearly a slap on the axe blade, but it produced a metallic clang.

Lu Yanfei's arms went numb and her body trembled after her weapon was slapped away. She stared in disbelief at her empty hands, frozen in place both physically and mentally.

Yunyang raised his right foot and kicked Lu Yanfei in the chest.

Execute him with a swift sword!

"Bang!"

With a sonic boom, Lu Yanfei was kicked away from the arena by Yun Yang, tracing an arc in the air before crashing heavily onto the floating island.

"Next!"

Yunyang arrogantly shouted at the other cultivators on the floating island.

The cultivators on the floating island were dumbfounded, never expecting that this imposing and burly man couldn't even withstand a single move from Yun Yang.

Higher up in the sky, among a group of elders and inner disciples watching the battle, there was an old man who was nine feet tall, bigger and more muscular than Lu Yanfei, who clapped his hands and cheered.

"Good!!! That was a good kick!"

"Fourth brother, keep your voice down, it's hurting my ears."

"Hahahaha!" the muscular old man laughed loudly, "I didn't expect this kid to be a body cultivator in addition to being a swordsman? Excellent! Just what I wanted! I'll take this disciple!"

"You weren't so willing before."

"Back then, we didn't know he was a body cultivator, and neither did you. Why didn't you tell me he was a body cultivator sooner?"

"Ahem! Actually... we just found out ourselves."

"ha?"

Indeed, apart from Su Muxue, everyone thought Yunyang was a sword cultivator, but they didn't expect that he was also a body cultivator!

Body cultivation?

Where did you, a body cultivator, get such a strong sword intent?

wrong!

If you have such strong sword intent, why the hell do you need to cultivate your body?

Are you out of your mind?

If you don't understand, you can only choose to respect it.

You're a genius, you're awesome, you can fix anything you want, okay?

"Hello!"

Unlike the others who were devastated, Yunyang, upon discovering that this mini-game was one he was most familiar with and skilled at, was seized by a playful impulse and chose to provoke the people on the floating island:

"Quick! Send another one! No! Ten of them! I want to take on ten!"

He's so arrogant.

No, my fist is hard!

I really want to punch him!

but……

Looking at Lu Yanfei lying on the ground convulsing, and recalling the earth-shattering sword strike from the day before yesterday, all those with strong fists fell silent once again.

It seems like we might not be able to win...

Forget it! A true man can bend and stretch! Let's wait for the others to wear down this arrogant guy first, and then we'll deal with him when he's exhausted.

This isn't cowardice! This is a strategic retreat!

With this in mind, even though Yunyang kept sending emojis and making sarcastic remarks, everyone chose to ignore Yunyang on stage number one.

Go ahead and yell if you want.

Even Su Muxue...

After confirming that Yunyang was completely unharmed, she began planning a fighting arena.

Yunyang has no rivals.

Hey, goodbye! I've finally found a game I'm good at, anyone want to battle me?

Standing on the ring, Yunyang was getting bored when the image of "Spendthrift Boy" Zhang Xianhan suddenly popped into his mind.

Hmm~ No one from the outer sect has come to challenge me. Did they say that people from the inner sect can't come?

Perfect timing! I should also get to know this inner disciple who's trying to "win over" me better!
