This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

A gold-type spell has been released?

Jiang Liu's face lit up with joy, and he immediately opened the book.

【Thousand-Hammered Golden Body】: Mid-grade magic level, a passive physical body magic of the metal element, forged into a golden body through a thousand hammer blows (0/1000).

[Note]: When you possess the [Hundred Refined Fire Body] at the same time, the rank of both physical body techniques will be raised to the superior grade.

"Hiss! The physical body technique!"

Jiang Liu gasped, his expression one of utter shock!

The physical body method has been achieved! Yay!

Another pay-to-win item has been exposed. I'd like to see how many pay-to-win items you've hidden in your Immortal Cultivation Era!

"The weight of a thousand hammer blows... something doesn't feel right..."

Jiang Liuzai stared at the introduction carefully for a few seconds before learning it.

Who cares about the training? You just practice in the game and then synchronize it to reality. It's a painless process.

After learning the Thousand Hammers Golden Body technique, Jiang Liu turned his attention to another magical artifact.

【Binding Rope】: A mid-grade magic artifact, powered by spirit control, which can restrict the movement of those whose cultivation level is lower than the user's. It can only be used on cultivators in the Qi Refining stage.

Huh?

When he saw the shackles, his expression suddenly froze, and a thought involuntarily popped into his mind.

Can this thing be used in parkour activities?

If it can be used, then can the Body Restraint Ring also be used?

If parkour events allowed players to influence other players, then these two magical artifacts would truly shine.

It's worth a try. In the second round, anyone who dares to get ahead of me shouldn't blame me for throwing the rope and the iron ring...

Jiang Liu thought to himself, "It's a pity that the Binding Ring and the Binding Rope are both in the same equipment slot. I can't use both at the same time. I can only use one and then switch equipment, which adds an extra step to the equipment switching process."

The equipment slot is a fixed feature in every game, and the Immortal Cultivation Era is no exception. If the equipment slot were not restricted, a Qi Refining cultivator wearing thousands of magical artifacts could directly confront a Golden Core cultivator.

However, this is true in the game, but there are not so many restrictions in reality. He can completely wear the Binding Ring in his left hand and the Binding Rope in his right, and it doesn't matter if he is covered in magical artifacts.

Jiang Liu was somewhat disappointed with this wave of spending. He didn't know if the Binding Law would work, and the Thousand Hammer Golden Body would only be effective after he had successfully cultivated it.

With parkour activities underway, he prefers footwork and movement techniques to physical techniques.

This thousand-hammered golden body is purely to give him something to do.

There's one day left before the second round of the event starts. What should we do on this day?

Cultivate the Thousand-Hammer Golden Body.

Jiang Liu closed his backpack and looked at the skill bar. The Thousand Hammers Golden Body icon was grayed out but still flickering slightly, reminding him to hurry up.

After clicking, a notification box appeared in the center of the game interface.

[Do you want to enter the training room and cultivate the Thousand Hammers Golden Body?]

【Yes. 】

The moment he clicked "yes," an interface popped up from nowhere. The background of the interface was a wooden room, and his paper doll was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his upper body naked.

At the top of the interface, there are three rooms: [Free Training], [Paid Training], and [VIP Training].

[Free Training]: Training speed increased by 10%.

[Paid Training]: 5 spirit stones per hour, training speed increased by 50%.

[VIP Training]: Unlocked at VIP2.

Jiang Liu: "......"

The basic mechanics of pay-to-win games are self-explanatory.

Jiang Liu directly clicked into the paid training room.

[Begin cultivating the Thousand Hammers Golden Body. Do you wish to activate 'Immersive Experience'?]

After thinking about it, he still chose to turn it on.

Watching a two-dimensional character practice martial arts doesn't really create any sense of immersion; it's much better to experience it yourself, since it's completely painless.

My gaze shifted.

It moved from outside the screen to inside the screen.

Jiang Liu sat cross-legged in the training room, shirtless, with a countdown timer in front of him.

Where's the hammer?

He looked relaxed, glancing left and right. The empty training room contained nothing but him.

next second.

A whooshing sound rang in his ears, as if some invisible object had hit him. Before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his flesh caved in three inches to the naked eye, causing his straight upper body to arch backward instantly.

Jiang Liu: "??????"

Jiang Liu: "!!!!!!!"

pain!

It hurts!

My sternum is broken!

He heard the sound of bones breaking very clearly, and the excruciating pain in his chest made him suffocate. His face turned pale instantly, and his forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat.

The practice room...is there pain?!

Jiang Liu was completely stunned. Intense pain filled his brain and numbed his nerves. The next hammer came right away and hit his right shoulder.

Click!

This time, he finally came to his senses.

"Holy crap, I need to get back, get back, get back!"

Two blows from the hammer made Jiang Liu feel as if he were actually there, his eyes filled with fear as he stared at the training room, his face showing lingering fear.

He had never been hit before, and those two blows really terrified him.

"What's going on?! I'm even getting crushed in a game..."

Jiang Liu's mind was still filled with the deep-seated pain. He opened his mouth to curse, but swallowed the words back down before he could finish.

What games do you play?

This is cultivation!

Painless training, painless combat, and you still want painless martial arts practice?

Why bother repairing it then? Just send you to the Great Perfection Ascension stage and you're done.

"Damn it, just when I think I'm playing a game, it comes at me with a hammer..."

Jiang Liu sighed, scratched his head, and looked conflicted.

Can I practice kung fu without pain?

Sure, you can just let a two-dimensional character play the role.

and then?

In real life, do people cry out in pain at the slightest injury or pain?

"This world is not short of ruthless people. If there aren't any, fine. But if there are... if others can do it, why can't I?"

Jiang Liu gritted his teeth and entered the immersive experience once again.

So what if I get hit by a hammer?

This little pain is nothing. Wipe away your tears and keep going!

Every bit of pain you experience in the game will turn into a reward in real life!

Chapter 34 Parkour Activity Round Two (Please read on!)

Upon entering the training room for the second time, Jiang Liu did not hesitate at all. He immediately crouched down with his hands behind his head, while his spiritual energy circulated wildly within his body, causing a faint layer of water to appear on the surface of his flesh.

One hammer blow!

It hit his arm, and Jiang Liu's face twitched.

One more blow.

It hit his thigh, and Jiang Liu couldn't help but groan.

The third strike.

Jiang Liu vehemently criticized the authorities.

The fourth hammer blow, the fifth hammer blow, the sixth hammer blow...

Jiang Liu gritted his teeth and endured more than a dozen blows before finally leaving the training room.

It really hurts like hell!

He originally thought that the increased training speed in the paid training rooms was to save time and help people master a skill more quickly.

Looking back now, haha.

This paid practice room isn't for saving time; it's for reducing the number of blows you take and the pain you experience.

Increases training speed by 50%, and the Thousand Hammers Golden Body only needs 750 hammer blows to master the Thousand Hammers Golden Body technique. Awesome!

Five spirit stones per hour—this isn't the value of time, it's compensation for emotional distress.

And you're the one paying!

It took Jiang Liu more than ten minutes to recover from the intense pain that had gripped his entire body. His face was pale, and he shakily re-entered the training room.

The third time, he persisted for thirty blows.

The fourth time, he persisted for sixty hammer blows.
